Introduction

Welcome to the Pride

The tall, brown haired boy surveys his sleeping family, relieved that they are finally safe. His gaze first fixes on Moon and Whisper. Moon's lion tail flicks back and forth, while Whisper's wings flutter softly in the breeze of the cool night. He smiles, happy to see the two sisters reunited. The next pair is Jay and Scratch. The usually fiery boy is sound asleep, and the hyper boy is snoring. Loudly. Rolling his eyes, they fix on Rogue. Rogue. The girl he never thought would be a part of his family, let alone be his love. She slept alone, bat wings stretched out and blue eyes closed. At last they were all together again. Maybe being a genetically altered mutant wasn't that bad, sometimes. Yes, the Doomsday Group was on the rampage. Yes, Flyboys and Whitecoats were searching all over Australia for them every minute. And yes, they had a world to save. But all was well, for now. He sat down next to the sleeping Rogue and shivered, knowing how lucky they were to be together. He closed his eyes and brought back the memories of the past few weeks.
