I don't own any X-men: Evolution characters. They are not mine.
And now onto...
A Phoenix's Ashes
A regular day at the institute would be highly uncommon. There were no days where everyone felt normal. Of course, there was confusion, hatred, sadness, and happiness at Charles Xavier's mansion, which housed many unique individuals. There were also secrets. And right now, the Professor, the main mentor, the strongest telepath, was trying to figure the enigma of images he had received from a great enemy's mind.
Most of the X-men had rested up quite a lot after their battle with Apocalypse. It of course had not been easy, no doubt, but they had started to feel more comfortable after the whole event. All though, many were still thinking of the speech the Professor had made. He had seen something in Apocalypse's mind, and it had caused him some discomfort.
Jean Grey sat silently on her bed, her legs hung over the side of the bed; her feet touching the floor.
I know it was almost over a week ago, but why can't I forget it. The Professor had made his speech, and when he had talked about a dear friend becoming a powerful foe, I knew he was referring to me.
She couldn't access his mind, as it was too powerful. But she had sensed some discomfort. And she knew what was inside her. Something lurking in the shadows. Doormat and tamed, but nonetheless, still there. At least I can feel it, Jean thought to herself. It wasn't something she wanted to stress over. She just didn't want to let her guard down.
Bayville was bustling even in the mid morning. A silent figure watched a TV through a store window. A news anchor was commenting on the battle between local mutants, and a great mutant, who was referred to as Apocalypse. The X-men and Brotherhood were also mentioned. The figure gave an evil smirk.
"Well, this is very interesting. I believe it is almost time to engage..."
A/U: Sorry, short chapter.Who can guess who the villain is? A hint: it's a well-known villain-mutant who hasn't appeared in X:evo...
