A/N: Hey y'all (waves timidly). I deeply apologize for my lack of updates
in the past three months. The summer was very hectic, but I'm back. I've
been suffering from writer's block, so if you want to see this story up and
runnin' again, feel free to give me some ideas. Even though I haven't
updated this summer I have come up with some ideas and this story has
started to go in a totally different direction than when it started. But
don't worry all you Pyro fans! The story will still center around him, and
then later in the story, an OC as well. But it will always involve Pyro one
way or another. He is my fave X-Men character and I won't leave him out!
The OC is not Haley. It is a new one that will be introduced at the end of
the chapter. Even though I'm gonna try to update more often, I can't
guarantee how often. Today was my first day of 8th grade and I will quote
my Algebra I teacher "You will have homework every night". OH JOY.
Disclaimer: Do y'all hate these things as much as I do? NOT MINE!!! With the exception of my OC's, which is anyone you don't recognize!

Welcome Back Chapter 4: New Arrival
"Wow! It's really you!" Rouge exclaimed in. She was stunned. She didn't think he would ever come back.
"Hey Roguey." John just now realized how much he missed her.
Unable to say anything, Rogue ran up to John and wrapped him into a big bear hug, careful not to make skin to skin contact.
After breaking the hug, they both sat down on the bed.
"So, what's been goin' on around here?" John asked.
"Nothin' much. But I should tell you, before you mention somethin' around Scott, that." Rogue trailed off and looked down at her hands.
"What?" John asked, curious.
"Jean died. That day out at Alkali Lake."
"Are you serious?" John asked her, a look of disbelief on his face.
"Yeah"
"Guess that explains why ol' Cyke was so crabby earlier." John recalled his run in with Scott earlier.
The two sat in silence for a while. Rogue continued to stare at her hands. John was one of her best friends, but suddenly everything between them seemed so awkward.
John finally decided to brake the silence "So what's Bobby's problem?"
"I really don't know. He seemed to miss you, but now your back, so I would think he would be happy. I don't know. He'll come around eventually. He's just bein' stubborn." Rogue said with a little smile on her face. "So what have you been up to for the past year?"
"Doing various crap for Magneto. It's true what they say. He really is the bad guy."
"Why did you leave us." Rogue asked quietly.
"I don't know. I guess I thought things would be different with Magneto. I thought that it would be nice to be around someone who respected my power." John replied.
"But all your friends are here." Rogue said.
"That's why I came back. To see you." John smiled at Rogue.
Rogue smiled back, but then a frown came across her face.
"Do you hear that?" She asked.
"What?"
"It sounds like a car comin'." She got up and looked out the window. "It is a car."
They both got up and went down to the front door. Bobby had also heard the noise and came wandering in. The professor and Storm stood in the main entry way with a boy. He was short, probably only 4'8". He had black hair with silver tips, and he was soaked head to toe. John stared at the boy. He looked like someone he knew.
'No' John thought. 'That's impossible. He's dead.'
The boy continued to stare at John and then who it was sunk in.
"I don't believe it." The boy said. "John?"
A/N: I know this is the shortest chapter in ff.net history, but I wanted the story to end with the new kids arrival and I couldn't think of anything good to put in the beginning, so it's super short. The next chappie will be longer. I have plenty of ideas for it!
