Ch.5 Surprise
Shock swept the room leaving it even more silent and eerie than before. Everyone's eyes had turned to her. Smiling she slowly walked to the center of the room. Turning around in a full circle she looked at everyone and let them all see her. To her right she heard clapping turning in that direction she saw Wolverine. He was laughing at everyone's expression and their shock.
" I've got to say Phoenix you sure know how to make and entrance. And by the way I'm glad I waited for the "show"." He said standing and slowly walked towards her.
" Wolverine you shouldn't laugh. They're scared and shocked. Stop clapping!" she whispered furiously.
"Why? Haven't you looked around?" he asked still laughing "We are not afraid we're stunned! Nice to have you back Jean." boomed in Phoenix's and Wolverine's head.
"Professor it's not Jean anymore it's Phoenix." Phoenix said aloud.
Scraping of a chair was the answer. Turning slightly she say Scott slowly stand and start walking towards her. Looking at as if she was a ghost and him her unexpecting guest to haunt. When he reached her he lifted his hand as if to touch her and prove to him self that she was real. Dropping his hand back he sighed. Taking the initiative she placed her hand on his arm. When he looked up to her his eyes held a multitude of hope. Nodding her head yes she smiled up at him. Grabbing her around the waist he picked her up and swung her around and around laughing obscenely in pure joy and love.
This told everyone that she was very much real and very much alive. Standing they all rushed at her the group of X-men held back though waiting they're turn for when the students had left.
Gathering around her the students hugged her touched her talked to her. They had all really missed her and was heart broken when she was thought gone from this world. These people were her family her life she would do anything to protect them. They needed her as much as she needed them. And for once in what seems like years she was truly happy.
