EPILOGUE

Pietro was running around the school track before school when he heard a familiar car door slam. "The-X-Geeks-are-here!" he said excitedly. He zipped over to Summer's red convertible that the X-Men, except Jean, were stepping out of.

"Vhat do vou vant Maxeemoff?" Kurt sighed as he rolled his eyes.

"A-challenge" Pietro said like it was the most obvious thing in the world.

"Like get lost Pietro" Kitty said looking around.

"Hmmm. that-is-difficult, but-if-I-did-then-you-wouldn't-be-able-to-see-my- handsome-face." He replied cockily.

Evan snorted, "Don't be so cocky Maximoff, last I saw you, you were running like a scared little girl from her."

Pietro turned to Evan, eyes narrowed, "And-where-was-that-exactly? Me-run- from-Pryde? Ha,youwishDaniels." He said and glanced behind him and seeing the Brotherhood quickly added "I'll-deal-with-you-later-Daniels. You-too- Pryde." He then sped away.

Evan snorted, and in a loud voice that not only Pietro could hear but the rest of the Brotherhood as well, "I remember it quite well Pietro!" and then in a high pitched, frightened wail, "Girl! Girl! Oh Gambit protect me! Saave me! Girl! Girl! Nooo!" he cried as he mock sped over to Scott and hid behind him, then burst out laughing, "And those were your 'exact' words Maximoff."

Kitty laughed as Pietro gave Evan a death glare. "Was that in your like dream too?"

Lance walked over then clutching his sides. "That rocked! Did you see his face! Shows that traitor" he said then added curiously, "What dream?"

Evan grinned, "Long story. I'll tell it to you on the way ot class. but Kitty has to wait until tonight." He told her with a 'see ya' glance as he led Lance towards the school.

Scott turned off to another direction with a few of the newer mutants and Rogue walked off with Risty.

Kurt gulped, Evan had done this on purpose. "Vell.uh Keetey. Ehy have to tell vou somezhing."

". and then I met Magneto. and let me tell you, he made the Professor look like Creed on his _worst_ day! He was all gung-ho save the humans and -" "Professor! Professor!" Jean cried, bursting into the room, uniform stained and hair disheveled.

The Professor lifted an eyebrow, "Yes Jean?" he said calmly in his all- knowing-voice. He knew what had caused Jean to come forward like this, her thoughts were filled with the message.but it was always best for things to be said aloud.

"I know, *gasp*, where the sentinal army is being built! They're planning a massacre!"
