Hello everyone! JupiterHalo here... I've crawled out of the world of anime fanfics and have decided to give other genres a try. This is my first X-Men: Evolution fanfic and so I apologize if it sucks. I really don't know much about the show... but this idea would not be ignored. Be warned! This may turn into a Scott/Jean fanfic, so if you don't like them as a couple, please don't read any further. As always, please review or e-mail me at SetsunaPuu21@cs.com with feedback, constructive criticism, etc. Enjoy!
Disclaimer: I don't own X-Men: Evolution or any of its characters.
The people who are crazy enough to think they can change the world are the ones who do.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
It was a day that Jean Grey would always remember. She knew that even if she lived to be a hundred, she would remember everything.
The sun was shining, the birds were singing, and another mutant bent on destroying Bayville was loose. Oh yeah. Just an ordinary day.
"Man, these guys just don't quit!" Kurt complained to no one in particular. "And they always have to attack on Fridays, don't they?"
"Of course! They're, like, totally intent on ruining our weekend!" Kitty joined in with her comment.
"Okay, everyone. Let's just stop complaining and do this thing, all right?" Scott was trying to not lose his patience with the younger team members. "The sooner we do this, the sooner we can get home."
Kurt and Kitty both took a hint and didn't say anything else, but Jean knew that they would continue to talk about this until Monday. She looked at Scott, who was intent on piloting the Blackbird. "Just an ordinary day, hm?" She said to herself.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"Is he coming?"
"Yes, master. He should be here soon. Did you see anything else in the machine?"
"No, but all in good time. Once we have the mutant in our hands, the Earth will fall."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"Augh! Dammit, I HATE it when they resist like this!" Scott fired another shot at the mutant scurrying about in the underground lab where they were. "Jean! Can you do something?"
"I can try, but I don't think I'll be able to hold onto him for very long!"
"Just do SOMETHING!" Another blast from Cyclops destroyed the last working computer, and made the nameless mutant cower in fear.
"Wait! Please, spare my life! I can tell you all about the next plan Apocalypse has to conquer the Earth!"
Scott nodded. "All right, we'll take you to see the Professor." He didn't realize that the mutant had an explosive hiding in his coat. As Scott approached, gloved hand stretched out in friendship, he heard the all-too-familiar click too late.
"Kurt! Get everyone out of here, now!" he yelled at the blue mutant.
"On it!" Nightcrawler grabbed Kitty and Jean, and prepared to teleport to safety.
"Wait! What about Scott?" Kitty looked at Cyclops and saw something that would scare her for a long while. Fear. Scott's face spoke of fear.
"I'll be fine! Just get out!" And without another word exchanged, the trio disappeared, leaving only Scott and the nameless mutant behind.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"Kurt! Go back! We have to get Scott!" Jean turned around to look back at the opening in the ground where she hoped Scott would come out. But after a few seconds, it wasn't Scott that shot out of the hole. Instead, it was a fireball, large in diameter.
As the team of mutants looked on with horror, the fireball expanded to cover most of the ground between them and the opening. But Jean was panicking more than the others. Scott's life force. She should have been able to feel him, but instead there was only emptiness.
*Jean? What's wrong?* Xavier was able to feel her panic miles away.
*Professor! I can't find Scott's life force! Where is he?*
Xavier reached out to Scott with his mind, but ended up with the same result as Jean. One look at Cerebro confirmed his worst fear. Scott... Cyclops... he had just... disappeared.
*I'm sorry, Jean... but Scott is gone.*
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Whoa. Okay... I hope you all liked it. ^.^; And even if this was pretty bad, please stick with me! It should get better. And if you have any suggestions, then e-mail me at SetsunaPuu21@cs.com. I would really appreciate it! Thanks everyone! Until the next chapter!
Love always,
