The rec room was eerily silent. The only sound was the soft, steady click of Storm's boots as she paced over the hardwood floor behind where the students were seated. She moved slowly over onto the carpet and looked steadily at the eighteen eyes that glanced worriedly back.
Wolverine, Nightcrawler, and Rachel stood behind her. Wolverine was leaning against the arm of the couch, Nightcrawler was sitting, and Rachel had a smug expression washed over her face as she crossed her arms. It had been quiet like this for nearly ten minutes until finally:
"What you did today", Storm began, "Was very, very irresponsible. It was risky, dangerous, and overall threatening-not only to you-but to the school! Xavier has put everything he has into this school so that you could come here and attempt a normal education with a normal life! I am disappointed to even say I have anything to do with some of you right now" Storm eyed over Iceman, Rogue, Gambit, Moonstar, and Thunderbird, "Now, I will not delve deeper into what I really want to say-or else you would be here throughout the night. I'll just skip straight to your punishment."
Danielle twittered her thumbs and took a deep breath. Gambit rolled his eyes and slung an arm around Rogue before Storm continued.
"Everyone may leave", she stated, "except for Bobby, Rogue, Neal, Danielle, and Gambit."
Kitty, Jubilee, and Amara squealed in relief and embraced each other before heading toward the foyer doors. Psylocke hung back, walking slowly for the stairwell. She shot Danielle a sympathetic glare and retreated to her room.
"As for the rest of you", Storm distinctly snapped, "Danger Room duty for two months, Blackbird duty for six. You put the school in jeopardy so I figured you could take care of it. I do not want to hear any groans or complaints. If you feel that this punishment is unfair, wait until I leave before your run your mouths, because I guarantee if I hear a word, everything will get worse."
A loud shriek of thunder blasted around the house, and Ororo Munroe stormed out of the room.
"What about my laundry?" Wolverine hissed into Nightcrawler's ear.

Lorna Dane trudged angrily through the dirty snow of downtown Boston. Her loft apartment was only a couple of blocks away. Of course, it didn't really matter whether she returned home from the lab or not. All that mattered was that she get the clone finished. Mister Sinister had been plotting his escape from the military base for years now, and Lorna had been waiting faithfully working on the Jean Grey clone he had called Madelyn Pryor, ever since.
Her blond hair swept angrily in the wind. Mister Sinister had recruited her two years ago after she had discovered her mutant ability to control anything that was metal-almost like a human magnet. They had then attacked Croatia, almost succeeding in taking over. Then, he had been put away-she had escaped, and decided to finish the clone on her own.
She had a slight hunch as to why he wanted the clone to be Jean Grey. He was in love with her. She smiled at the surprise she had in store for him. She had heard through the Morlocks that Jean Grey-powerful telepath of the X-Men-had been killed in the Cerebro II incident at Alkali Lake. She had then gone south, to the freezing winter winds, and found the red- head lying lifeless on the lapping shore near a thick forest. It was all with the help of new mutant and friend, Metal Detector. He called himself Beep for short. He could program anything into his mind and find exactly where it was, giving out a loud, distinct beep when he found it.
The two were almost best-friends, and had found the body together. Lorna wasn't surprised to find that there was no pulse in the slender, ivory neck. She was surprised, however, that the body was in such perfect condition. None of the skin had even decomposed-and after almost a year-it should have. Lorna then brought it back to her homemade lab in an abandoned basement below a church that she had named the Polaris Project, and began working on it.
She had just been able to receive a small, weak, distant pulse. She had used her magnetic power to charge up two pyro-clastic wires she had stored beneath her desk and gently taped them through Jean's nose and mouth. Soon, her heartbeat was slowly beginning to thud-just like her identical clone's beside her.
Polaris cursed as she slammed into her apartment angrily. She caught a glimpse of herself in the mirror next to the door. Strands of green were beginning to emerge from the blonde dye she had carefully constructed around her hair that very month.
Why does this cheap hair-dye always fade?
Why can't my hair just be a normal color?
She hated the color green, and definitely didn't want her hair to be that color. She took a deep breath and slammed her book-bag on the floor near the door. She peered into the living room and gasped. Her roommate and best-friend, Beep, was sitting on the couch in between none other than Mister Sinister and her father.
Magneto.

Professor X and Beast arrived in the large garage outside the X mansion, exhausted. It was nearly one o' clock in the morning, and they had been driving since five o' clock that afternoon. Storm could hear them clang their doors shut and the garage rattle noise-filled as it clambered downward.
They were all sitting at the table-her, Wolverine, Nightcrawler, and Rachel. The children were upstairs in their room-hopefully asleep-but if not, they were talking quietly because Storm couldn't hear the usual midnight chatter.
"How did it go?" Nightcrawler asked as Professor Xavier wheeled in with Beast at his side.
Professor X shook his head, "He'll come around."
Storm smiled.
"Meanwhile, it's been a nightmare back here", Rachel added into the conversation.
"We'll tell you about it tomorrow", Storm said, warily and getting up from her chair, "It's late right now and I need some sleep."
The adult mutants quickly got out of their chairs at her lead and made their way upstairs before collapsing tiredly into their rightful beds.
A/n: This chapter sucked, but I had to get it out of the way. Synch will be in the next chapter. Yes, Magneto is really Polaris's dad. After reading Mister Sinister's bio, I realized that there may be a possibility for Jean to be back in the story. I don't really like Rachel and the only reason I put her in here was because I couldn't put Jean cuz she died in the movie. . .if you think Rachel is annoying I'll try and find a way to get rid of her, but anyways, thanks for all your reviews and sorry this chapter is so short, but it's really late.
