Issue 6 A Heroes Welcome
-New York-
"Today! We welcome, the saviour of Earth! Kitty Pryde!" said the mayor. Kitty shyly walked onto the stage, followed by the rest of her team. "Um, Hi!" said Shadowcat. "I am Kitty Pryde. Uh.. sorry, I am a bit nervous" said Kitty. "I uh saved the world about a month ago" she continued. "and now I am back.." said Kitty. oh god.. I sound totally retarded.. thought Kitty. "Well.. what I am trying to say is, that I saved you guys, and I would really appreciate it, if you cut me and my teammates a little slack..?" said Kitty. Suddenly, the crowd erupted into a huge cheer. "Woah.. never thought this would happen huh guys?" said Kitty. "Nope, You have kickstarted something we have been trying to achieve for years Kitty." Said Cyclops. "Thank you New York" said Kitty. She then stepped off stage, again, followed by her teammates. "wow.. that was amazing" said Kitty. "Sure was Kitten" said Storm. "Well done Miss Pryde!" said Armor. "Please Hisako, call me Kitty. "oh okay" said Armour slightly embarrassed. "Well done Katya" said Colossus, and he pulled her into a hug. "not bad Half-pint" said Logan. "Thanks Logan" said Kitty. "Nicely done Kitty" said Emma. "Thanks" she said, with a smile. "Come on then guys, lets get back to the Mansion, Pixie is cooking her famous Beef Stew" said Cyclops. "mm, missed that!" said Kitty.
-Back at the Mansion-
It had been a long time since the X-men had sat around a table together. All in honour of Kitty. Armour felt kind of strange sitting with her former teammates. (The Younger X-men). But they realised that she belonged with the main team, Pixie was going to be promoted soon anyway. So it was nice she wasn't going to be the only young member of the X-men. "to Kitty" said Emma. "To Kitty" said the rest of the table. But Kitty was sure she heard Logan say 'Half-Pint'. "Thanks, so much" said Kitty. "Pixie, the Beef stew is great!" she said. "Wow thanks! I have been workin' on it" said Pixie. "I can tell, I remember the last time you cooked it.." said Kitty. "It took me a week to clean up that mess" said Pixie. Kitty began snorting with laughter.
-Later, Kitty and Colossus are lying under their favourite tree in the Mansion grounds-
"Katya, are you sure you are alright? I cannot imagine being stuck in the bullet for that long was much fun.." said Colossus. "It wasn't, but the only thing that kept me going was you guys. Especially you. I knew you wouldn't give up on me, I knew you would return to save me." Said Kitty. "I am sorry I was not on the ship. I was convinced that Scott was going to stop Steganos from removing you from the bullet." Said Colossus. "don't worry Peter. I understand, Now shut up and kiss me" said Kitty. And then, her and Colossus began to share their first kiss, since the Breakworld.
