The Leaving Song by: AFI Walked away, heard them say "Poisoned hearts will never change. Walk away again" Turned away in disgrace Felt the chill upon my face cooling from within It's hard to notice gleaming from the sky When you're staring at the cracks Hard to notice what is passing by with eyes lowered You walked away, heard them say "Poisoned hearts will never change. Walk away again" All the cracks will lead right to me And all the cracks will crawl right through me And I fell apart as I walked away, heard them say "Poisoned hearts will never change" Walked away again turned away in disgrace Felt the chill upon my face cooling from within

Oz walked away from the mansion and into the woods. The skies were darker then midnight and the rain had been pouring for three days.
"Storm needs to keep her emotions in check." Oz smiled.
"Can she help it?" a voice asked behind her.
Oz spun around. "Logan? What are you doing here?"
"I came after you, I want to know what the hell you are doing out here. Why are you making everyone cry?"
"Why are they crying over me?"
"They think you are dead."
"I am not." She said simply. "I am just, out of order for a little while."
"What do you mean?" Logan leaned against a tree.
"I mean," she smiled and raised her tang top high enough for him to see her abdomen. It was bandaged and blood seeped through. "I was skewered by Toby working through Jubilee and I am still not healed."
"But you should go tell them that you are alive."
"Why?"
"Because you are what brought them all back to life Oz." He said pointing at the mansion. "Everyone there is alive because of you."
"But how?" she asked looked back over at the school. "How? What did I do that brought them back to life?"
"I don't know." He shrugged.
"So maybe it wasn't me. Maybe it was someone else."
Logan shook his head. "The Professor is convinced that it was you. That something about your death triggered something, a time rift or something like that I don't know. But you brought them back to life."
"There is no proof to prove that it was me."
"There is no proof to prove that it wasn't you Oz." Logan pointed out. "You mother is in there crying as we speak."
Oz sighed. "She might have given me life, but."
"But what Oz?"
"But she is not my mother."
"How can you say that?"
"Because. I have an ego bigger then yours."
Logan sighed. "Damn, am I this stubborn?"
"You have no idea." She smiled at him. "So, you know that I am alive."
"I smelled cedar and sage and knew that you were around. So who did we bury at the funeral this morning?"
"Me, I played possum." She smiled. "And teleported out of there later." She turned and looked at him. "Look, I told you, this isn't my home, I don't belong here."
"And where do you belong?"
Kurt appeared. "Logan," he wiped the tears from his eyes but didn't look up. "Professor says he wants to talk to you."
"Kurt." Logan said.
Kurt looked up and gasped. "Oz?"
Oz shrugged. "Hello brother."
"Brother?" Logan asked.
"What. I thought. how'd you?"
"Shh." She walked over to him and smiled. "I am alive." She said and hugged him. "But," she pulled back. "I don't belong here, so I am going to leave."
"Leave to where?" He asked.
"Brother?" Logan asked again.
Oz smiled over at Logan. "Yes, Kurt is my twin brother and our mother is Mystique. Is there a problem Logan?"
"I thought you two were,"
"That's why it is not safe to assume. It makes an 'ass' out of 'u' and 'me'."
Logan shook his head and gave her a smirked smile. "So you are not dating anyone?"
"Not at the moment, no."
He grabbed her and pulled her into a long deep kiss.
Kurt leaned back on a tree and smiled. "So, where are we going?"
Oz leaned back but stayed in Logan's arms. "I don't know, I was thinking Hawaii."
"Hawaii?" Logan asked.
"Why not?" Oz asked.
"Hawaii it is then." Logan nodded.
Kurt grabbed both of their arms and they teleported away.
