Xavier's Mansion, Blackbird Hangar--

Wolverine suddenly collapsed to the floor and his body continued shuddering, even when Yuffie had opened his eyes and moved back to his spot beside Samantha. His face held a calm expression, but everyone else was stunned. No one moved a muscle until Hank suddenly cried out "Somebody, help me get him to the Med Lab! Now!"

Cyclops was the first to move, and Iceman and Archangel reacted next. Archangel took him under the arms, while Scott and Bobby each grabbed a leg and followed Beast down to the Med Lab.

Meanwhile, all the other present X-Men looked, open-mouthed and wide-eyed, at the short, thin, elfin kid that had managed to so easily take down one of their strongest members. He didn't make eye contact with any of them, and seemed to not feel sorry about hurting Logan.

Suddenly, a voice sounded within all of the X-Men's heads. "Bring the children and the new recruits down to me. I would like to meet Rogue and Gambit's child, as well as everyone else who has arrived." The Master's Of Vengeance all looked around at one another, a little surprised by the voice, but quickly fell in step behind the X-Men who were moving out of the hangar and into a hallway.


"My god! Look at everything... wow!" Steve and Clive whispered to one another as they saw the unique, beautiful, and no doubt ultra-expensive things that decorated not only the hall, but every single room from the jet hangar to Xavier's office.

Golden picture frames held photograph's of all of the X-Men they had met, plus some with some people they didn't recognize. Real wood furniture with expensive Italian upholstery was in the living room, complemented by the leather couches surrounding the huge TV. Even the light fixtures were probably worth more than Clive himself had ever made in his lifetime. Needless to say, it was gorgeous.

Suddenly, they came upon a large, ornate oak door. Scott opened it to reveal an office, also decorated mainly with wood: wood furniture, wood ceilings, wood floors. Behind a large oak desk sat a bald man, whom they all assumed was Xavier. Clive spoke first.

"Sir, it is a pleasure t' meet you." He held out his hand, for Xavier to shake.

"Likewise. So, what is your name?"

"I thought you could get up inside my head and see yourself?" Asked Clive, genuinely curious.

"Well, I can, but I've noticed over the years that most people don't like me doing that. They don't like the thought that I can see every thought of theirs. To many, it is quite unnerving."

"Ah. I see. My name is Clive." He waved to Xavier, then stepped back so that someone else could introduce themselves. Steve stepped up, eventually followed by everyone else. Then the children approached.

"Hello. And what is your name?"

"I'm Samantha."

"Ah, well hello, Samantha. Do you know who your mommy and daddy are?"

"I'm 9 years old, you don't need to baby-talk me."

Xavier was a little taken aback, but recovered quickly and smiled. "Well, then, who are you parents?"

"I don't know. Clive and them think I may the child of Sabretooth and Miss Teek." She stood her ground, and didn't seem the least bit ashamed for her parentage. Xavier was glad for that.

"Hmm... so, do you know where they are now?" Xavier asked, trying to dig up some information. Instead of Samantha, though, Yuffie answered.

"Sabretooth is dead."

Everyone quickly looked in his direction, again with bewildered expressions. "What... what did you say?"

"Sabretooth died a few days ago. I felt his life-force disappear."

Everyone was silent. Although Sabretooth was a feared and hated enemy, he was still a prominent figure in their lives. He had been around for what seemed like forever, and now he was gone.

Xavier turned to Yuffie now. "What is your name? And your power? How did you know he died? How did he die?"

"Hold on, one question at a time, please." Said Yuffie, who shook his head, then proceeded to answer.

"My name is Yuffie. My power? Well, I can see in people's heads, read their thoughts, and temporarily shut down their mind. I can feel emotions and sense life-force. I think that's all of them, unless I discover one later, which I doubt since I discovered all of these powers with 2 weeks of each other, and that was 3 years ago.

"I knew he died due to my ability to sense life-forces. I was raised with him all my life-it was inevitable that when he died, I would feel him blip out. From what I can tell, from his emotions, he died a painful death. He was barely human after a while of torture; I could barely sense him then."

"And why did you attack Logan." Asked Jean.

"Well, from his growling, and from the angry emotions coming from him when he smelled Samantha, I wanted to get him before he got her. It appeared as though he was going to attack, and there was a small chance he would, and if he had he would've killed her. So I knocked him out."

He then stepped back, allowing Felix to step forth. Xavier was stunned when he first saw him-the perfect synthesis of Gambit and Rogue. Of course, he was genetically altered to be, but to have an experiment go so well was incredible. He was small, looked to be about 3 or 4, which Xavier figured he would be from the time when they were initially attacked. He was thin, but not malnutrition-thin. Xavier then diverted his attention to the parents.

Gambit had a huge grin spread across his face, and had his arm wrapped around Rogue, who wore a similar expression. 'At least they're happy now' thought Xavier, sadly remembering the last few years, full of frustration and depression for both.

"Well, what's your name?"

"Felix. An' you?"

"I'm Xavier, the headmaster of this school."

Felix just nodded, having no idea what a headmaster was. "Cool."

"So, I hear you'll be staying with us for awhile."

"Yeah, me an' them." He pointed behind himself towards his friends. "That's what they told us." He then pointed towards Jean and Storm.

"Of course, Felix." Xavier smiled at him. "Let's just find you all rooms for now. I'll meet you all for lunch in the dining room around 1:00pm, if that's alright with everyone." Everyone nodded that it was okay. "Okay, then I will see you all soon to brief you on everything you need to know. See you soon."

He then assigned a different person/people to a different group of new people: Rogue and Gambit with Felix, Yuffie, and Samantha; Wolverine and Storm with Clive and Steve, and etc.

"Wow", thought Clive for about the 800th time today, "A whole new life, right here." He smiled. Finally they were all being rewarded for all the good they had done.

Alright, this is not the end... just seemed like a better ending place than the other I had in mind. Enjoy. Review. Have a great day!
