A/N: This is sort of an extended version of the funeral scene. It is a songfic.
Disclaimer: I own nothing, but the plot. Marvel (sorta) owns the rest.

Song: This Is Your Life by Switchfoot
A dark skinned woman with snow-white, cropped hair took her seat, tears streaming down her face from the speech she had just given. She tried her hardest to fight them back, but the attempt was vain. The loss had been too great.
Yesterday is a wrinkle on your forehead
Gracefully, yet a little timid, a young girl stood up, a paper in her hand with words and notes about to be spoken. In front of the stone she looked out at the tear-stained faces all wearing black on black. Inhaling deeply, brown hair moving with the wind, she too fought back the water threatening to fall.
Yesterday is a promise that you've broken
She choked back sobs and forced her concentration on the speech she had prepared. Once more before speaking she looked out at the crowd. Bobby smiled at her to go on though sadness showed in his and everyone else's eyes.
Don't close your eyes
Don't close your eyes
'He brought us together. He brought me to them.' She thought, referring to Bobby, Rogue, and Piotr. The thought brought a smile and her confidence back. She looked above her into the blue sky full of lively white clouds. 'Thank you…' she turned back to her peers and teachers. '…for everything.'
This is your life
And today is all you've got now
And
And today is all you'll ever have
A/N2: If you like it please review. If I get at least one I will continue it.
