Disclamier: Although they are so cool, sadly I don't own any of the x-men, they all belong to Marvel Comics, so don't sue!
Note: This story takes place after the events in X-men III: The last Stand. There may or may not be some differences because I will use some facts and events that were in the book, but not in the movie. I will try my best to stay true to the characters. If I make any mistake or have a wrong fact sometime during this story, I am sorry.
This is my first X-men fic, so be gentle. But please review
After the events on Alcatraz everyone knew that the school would never be the same. Much had been lost; Scott, Jean and The Professor were gone. Those left at the school were doing their best to make and keep it as great as it was before. The current students all agreed that they were doing a great job.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The day had been beautiful ever since the sun had come up, not a single cloud in the sky. Ororo Monroe, also known as Storm took the opportunity to teach her class outside. The other teachers who stayed inside opened the drapes to let the sunshine illuminate the classroom. Things were going fine, it was nearly too good to last and it was. Suddenly thunder was heard in the sky above. Storm and her students looked up to see the sky being covered with thick black clouds, the wind picked up speed and the papers that the students were writing on flew everywhere. The sunshine blocked, the classes in the school grew dark.
'Storm!' Logan, also known as Wolverine yelled at her through a window
'It's not me' she told Logan. She knew better than anyone how fast the weather could change, her mutant powers allowed her to control it.
Sometimes, however, her mood got the better of her. If she wasn't careful, when she was in a bad mood, it was the coming of a storm. But at this moment her mood was fine and they had announced clear skies all day. With those factors out of the way, the sudden weather change worried Storm and all the other students at Xavier's School for gifted youngsters, what could be causing it?
Than just as quickly as they came, the clouds started to disappear, the sky was its cheery blue and the sun shone again. It was all like as if nothing had happened to interrupt the beautiful day.
'What just happened here Storm?' one of the students asked
'I don't know, but I don't think it's good'
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Later on that day Storm, Wolverine, Colossus and Angel, the older members of the X-men joined together to try and figure things out
'What the hell happened earlier?' Logan asked
'I have no idea, but I can tell you with a certainty that it wasn't me' Storm told them
'The skies were real dangerous all of a sudden; I was coming down fast to get out of there, when, it just cleared up' Angel said
'Some of the students in class got pretty freaked' Colossus told them
'Alright, we'll do down to the lower levels and see if we can find anything out down there'
Everyone agreed and they were about to head down when there was a knock at the door. There wasn't anyone expected, but since the school was a haven for mutants they occasionally got runaways from home, young mutants who just wanted to be accepted. That was what the school was for, to protect young mutants and help them to learn to master their powers and just let them live a happy life.
Logan opened the door and there stood a young woman who looked about 21-22 years old. Her shoulder length light brown hair was tied back in a loose ponytail and it let a few strands fall to the side of her face. Her eyes were a light green that hypnotized you, once you looked into them you nearly couldn't look away. Overall she was an attractive little thing, with a little mysterious side.
'Can we help you?' Logan asked
'Yes, I need your help to protect this planet'
'What?' The others crowded around the door 'Protect the planet, from who?'
'Apocalypse'
