X-MEN
THE DREAM
PART ONE: OPENING SHOTS
Author's Note: This how I envision the end of the X-Men. Having recently stopped reading the books, I desire closure from the overall story. This is what that is. The events of this story only take in account everything up until the end of "Second Coming." While some vague references to other storylines might be made (for example, "Curse of the Mutants"), this is intended to feature a divergence in the timeline after "Second Coming."
I figured, if Claremont can write "X-Men Forever," then I can write this. Right?

Prelude
I am fire . . .
YOU HAVE A TASK.
I am light and darkness . . .
THE WORLD IS AT A CROSSROADS. WE CAN NOT ALLOW THE END OF IT.
I am life incarnate . . .
YOU KNOW THE WORLD. YOU WERE CHOSEN FOR THIS REASON. YOU WERE REPLACED FOR THIS REASON.
Now . . .
YOU WERE JOINED FOR THIS REASON. YOU ARE COMPLETE NOW. GATHERED AND BURNING.
. . . And forever . . .
YOUR TIME HAS COME.
I am Phoenix.
BURN AWAY WHAT DOES NOT WORK.
