Here's some stuff to know before the story. First, this story takes place at the end of season four. Second, David Haller, Charles Xavier's son, lives at then Institute. His dad was able to help him and get rid of Lucas and his other personalities. And Lorna Dane (Polaris) Pietro's little and half sister lives there too. So does Scott's little brother Alex. And they have some new students. Sooraya Qadir (Dust), Elizabeth "Betsy" Braddock (Psylocke), Layla Miller, and Laura (X-23) are new students that joined the Institute. Polaris, Dust, Psylocke, and Layla are from the comics. Pietro and David are best friends, just like there dad's used to be.

That's it. Enjoy.

"Almost done," said Forge.

"What is it?" asked Sooraya.

She wasn't covered up now, so you could see her face and black hair.

"It's a time machine, Raya."

"Why are you building a time machine?"

"In case something happens and we need to go back in time."

"Why don't you take a little brake now. We can go see a movie."

"Sounds good to me."

"Dad," said David.

"Yes, son," said Charles.

"Is it okay is Pietro came over?"

"Of course. He's always welcome."

"Thanks, Chuck," said Pietro, running into the room and stood next to David, arm on his shoulder.

Charles smiled. The boys looked like younger versions of himself and Erik (Magneto).

'I just hope their friendship lasts,' thought Charles.

"Alright, have fun. And make sure no one knows Pietro's here."

Charles didn't mind that Pietro and David were friends. In fact, he was glad. He hoped this would lead to Pietro joining the X-Men. But not everyone was happy they were friends. They didn't trust Pietro.

"Thanks, Dad," said David.

Pietro and David were playing Crazy Taxi and talked.

"Have you heard from your dad or sister?" asked David.

"No," said Pietro. "I haven't seen my dad since Apocalypse and when Wanda got her memories back, she left saying she never wanted to see me again."

"I'm sorry, Tro."

"Don't be, Dave. You couldn't have done anything."

"Ya know, you should join the X-Men. Lance is thinking of joining. And you could use your powers to do some good."

"I've been thinking about it. But I don't know if I could be a hero."

"Sure you could. There's a hero in you. I can see it."

"You can be just like your dad sometimes."

"Is that a bad thing?"

"No. I guess not."

They laughed a bit.

"So, did you asked Betsy out yet?" asked Pietro.

"What?" said David. "I don't know-"

"Like hell you don't know what I'm talking about."

David blushed.

"I just can't talk to her. Everytime I see her, I get all nervous. She's so beautiful. Her long, black hair and she beautiful blue eyes."

"It's not hard to talk to a girl."

"Oh, you're one to talk. You avoid Laura lots of times."

Pietro blushed.

"Okay, how 'bout this. We'll both go right now and look for them and tell them how we feel and asked them out."

"Who goes first?"

"If we Laura first I go and if we see Betsy first you go."

"Sounds fair."

They went looking for the girls.

"Any problems, Evan?" asked Scott.

"None," said Evan.

Evan moved back into the Institute. Hank was able to find a way to stop Evan's bone spikes from growing and he was back to normal.

"Scott! Evan!" cried Jubilee, running fast toward them.

"What's wrong!" asked Scott.

"I heard Quicksilver's in the mansion!"

"Maximoff!?" exclaimed Evan, angry. "He's dead!"

"Do you ever think about the future?" asked Pietro.

"Sometimes, yeah," said David.

"Sometimes I wounder if the moves and choices I make are the right ones. I wounder how they affect the future."

"We can only hope we do the right thing."

Pietro nodded.

"Hey, Maximoff!"

Pietro turned and then quickly moved. A spike was in the wall.

"Evan, the hell?" yelled David.

"What's he doing here, David?" demanded Scott.

"My dad said it was okay he came!"

"Well we don't think it's okay!" Evan fired more spikes.

Pietro ran off. He found himself in the lab.

"Cool, the lab! I've only seen this place once."

He looked around. He spotted the time machine.

"I wounder what that machine does."

Scott ran in, saw Pietro, and blasted him.

Pietro went flying into the machine. It started making noise and electricity.

David, Evan, Jubilee, Ororo, Hank, Charles, Sooraya, and Forge ran into the lab. (Okay, Charles wheeled quickly into the lab because he can't use his legs.)

"My time machine!" cried Forge.

There was a bight light. When everything cleared, Pietro was gone.

"PIETRO!" screamed David.
