PROLOGUE:
Six months have passed since M-Day at Alcatraz Island. The world saw a brutal war waged that day, a war it would not soon forget. An army of mutants rallied to put a stop to a possible cure that would banish their unique abilities into human dormancy. They failed at their attempt, staved off by a small band of mutant peacekeepers known as the X-Men. In the weeks following the battle, the supposed cure was shipped worldwide, being issued to those who would accept it, and even to those who wouldn't. But it was all for not in the end. After only a few months, the cure began to lose its effect, granting the dosed mutants with the return of their powers. The global Societies again regained their distrust of the supernatural species.
Change may only have occurred sparsely to the outside world, but much of it stayed within the compound of the X-Mansion. With the apparent death of their beloved leader, Dr. Charles Xavier, the surviving members continued his dream. Storm has now become the school's fulltime administrator, as well as the commander of the X-Men team. Beast took time away from his position as the Secretary of Mutant Affairs to teach the new generation of mutants, in honor of Xavier's memory.
After realizing the cure was not permanent, Rogue has taken a leap of absence from the school to help clear her head. Bobby/Iceman joined her on this vacation. Shadowcat still attends the regular routine of class life with her fellow teammate Colossus. As for Logan, he's still around most of time, teaching the students field strategies as a combat instructor. How long he'll stay isn't apparent, but his word to Xavier may keep him present longer than anyone could guess.
