"Derek?" a voice broke the almost sacred silence in the area.
"Yeah Diana?"
"Do you think we're the only ones left?" the girl asked as she and her brother looked out at the leveled building.
"Your guess is as good as mine, Di. Maybe."
"Well." A slight note of bitterness entered her voice. "The general populace should be happy. No more freaks. Just nice, NORMAL people. Like it should always have been."
"We can't blame them for fearing what they don't understand."
"They didn't even try, Derek. They just hunted us like animals, and now hundreds of people are dead."
"You and I both know that people are afraid of what they don't understand."
Diana sighed. "I know but what are we going to do now?"
"We wait."
"What are we waiting for?"
"New mutants."
"There won't be any more."
"Mutants will return eventually and we need to be ready."
"Suppose I believe you, how do you expect to find the new mutants?"
"The same way Professor X did. We will use Cerebro."
"OK let's go find Cerebro then."
