At the mansion:
"You need to be more careful, Jinks," San glared at the younger girl. "Not only could the sirens have found us, but we could have ended up kicked out of the mansion due to your…"
"San, I'm sorry," Jinks pouted and began to cry.
"Sanil, enough!" Lira stared at him incredulously, "Jinks was acting on impulse, and while that impulse was wrong, she doesn't need to be yelled at. That won't help anything. I'll open a nursery at the rate you all seem to be acting."
"I didn't mean to be so ruff on her…" San winced, "I'm sorry Jinks, I was wrong too."
"Say sorry to Lira too?" Jinks blinked her tears back and sniffled.
"Yes, I'm sorry for upsetting Lira too," San sighed in relief as Jinks stopped crying.
"Good! Now you gotta kiss and get maked up!" Indy giggled.
Lira and San blushed in embarrassment, but did kiss. That kiss was just the beginning of many good things that came their way…
"We have a home, are away from the sirens, and we're together. So, shall we set out to find Marcus?" San asked their group.
"We'll leave no stone unturned!" Colt grabbed the air and pulled it to his chest in a fist.
"Yeah! We'll find Marcus and be a family again!" Rye agreed and high-fived Quin.
"So, we're all in this together?" San asked their small family.
"YEAH!" they all roared agreement.
"We will help you as well, children," Ororo smiled at them from the door, with Logan and the Professor behind them.
"I may have a way of finding your Marcus," the Professor smiled.
And together, they would work to find Marcus, but it would be many long years before they would find him, trapped in a compound, much like Logan was, and it took them even longer to get him back to semi-normal.
The hardest blow to Marcus was dealt was hearing of Vinatsyr's death. Marcus never did get over Vinatsyr, but as the years went bye he made sure to live his life to the fullest. He is still often found looking up at the sky and thinking of her…
Sanil and Analira eventually wed, and had a set of triplets to add to their now larger than normal family. The triplets were two boys and a girl. The boys were Wolf and Mark, named after Wolverine and Marcus, and the girl was called Vine, after their fallen mother figure, Vinatsyr.
It was a long, tiring battle, but the X-Men were able to silence the sirens and helped to begin the rebuilding of the town. It would take time, but though they would never forget, they could remember, pass on their stories to others and hopefully prevent the world from making the same mistakes again.
