Here it is. New, improved and hopefully plotted.
Title: New Orleans in the Spring
Author: Remy'sWriter
Summary: The X-team has finally disbanded in a peaceful manner. Prof. X has died, Genosha has become a place of peace for mutants and their spouses run by Eric Lensher, complete with a relocated Xavier Institute. A momentary calm in the mutant community. Each member has gone their own route, some keeping in touch, to live a real life. Gambit was never a part of the team. After a failed attempt at living in her hometown, Rogue (taking the name of Anna) moves farther south to the Big Easy. Remy is in the midst of a divorce with Belladonna when she and Henri devise a plan behind his back. A plan that will unite both guilds against Remy. (cue bad, suspenseful music)
Disclaimer: I own nothing… sadly.
It was stifling. I couldn't stop my head from hurting. Everywhere I went here, they stared so hard my head started to pound. It wasn't that they couldn't stop, they just wouldn't. They all knew me here. Even after ten years, they still knew me. How could they not? I was the only mutant they'd had and I had run off. I'm pretty sure they'd celebrated too. No more boys in comas, no more emergency room visits because the neighborhood kids were blacking out.
For five months I've tired to live here again. That's five months of stares, whispers, kids peeking into my livingroom window to catch me doing something weird. I'd moved back into the house I grew up in, with the woman who raised me: my aunt. She died two weeks ago and everyone thought I did it. Well, five months of suffocating in my hometown was quite enough. Now that nothing tied me here, I'm leaving again. Leaving for good. I sold the family house mostly furnished and got that much more out of it. I'd already put a down payment on a new house farther south.
It's a nice three bedroom. Colonial style. I could only afford it thanks to Xavier. I got the extra rooms incase one of my friends happens by. I have those thanks to Xavier as well.
Goodbye Mississippi, hello Louisiana.
