It's been a few months since Jean has died. Everyone has been doing ok now except Scott. Anytime I see him, he seems sad and depressed. My dad has gotten very protective lately. We're ok and it seems like we've gotten closer.

But right now, we were in a battle. I was behind a small wall when I saw something come flying at me. I braced myself for the impact while I put up my force field. Over the few months, Scott and my dad and even Storm have wanted me to know how to make a large force field around almost anything.

It hit my body and made me crash to the ground. It bounced back up and when I looked, I saw it hit my dad right in the face who was standing over me. I made a face, knowing that had to hurt, even him. He healed in seconds and turned to me as I stared at him when an explosion went off in the distance. "The whole world's going to hell and you're just gonna sit there? Let's go."

I ran and saw Bobby stop a missile from hitting him, landing at his feet, frozen. But then another coming and I yelled his name. I threw a force field around him and the missile exploded. When the smoke cleared, I saw him standing there, looking for me. When he did, he smiled and ran over to me and wrapped me in his arms. "Thanks, Kitten."

I looked off in the distance and saw my father trying to light a cigar from a small fire on an object. I just rolled my eyes, knowing he was going to lose it and get pissed off. I was right when I saw him walking in the middle of the battle field. He told Colossus to throw him so he could take out the machine.

"Damn it, Logan. Don't do this. We work as a team." Storm cried out.

He ignored her and when the machine's head landed in front of us and he came out from behind it, he said, "Class dismissed."

Storm just rolled her eyes as we all walked out of the Danger Room. They started arguing about us needing to know about self defense. We kept walking, ignoring them and we walked up stairs. Bobby followed me up to my room after we got out of our uniforms.

We finally got on the team. Well, Bobby did since I was already on it, but we both got our mutant names too. Bobby was known was Iceman and I was known as Renegade. I might've had other powers but everyone seemed to say Renegade fit since I was the Wolverine's daughter. We were both pretty wild and we couldn't disagree with that one.

We were both lying in my bed, just relaxing and listening to the radio. They just announced that the government has found a cure for mutants. A cure for us to become like normal people. When some music came on, Bobby had his arms around my waist and I had mine on his shoulders.

All of a sudden, my door banged open and my dad was there. He looked serious and I could tell we were going somewhere. "We got a mission. Keep your hands off my daughter and let's go."

We all get on the jet in our uniforms and head up to Alkali Lake. They wouldn't tell us what was going on, only that the Professor felt something happen there. When we finally landed, Storm opened the door and we all walked out. It was foggy so we could hardly see anything next to us.

"You don't wanna be here." Storm acknowledged.

"Do you?" my dad shot back.

We started walking around, trying to find anything unusual. I started to feel the presence of someone else being here. And it wasn't just the four of us. There was another person. "Guys someone else is here."

My dad turned around to face me. "You sure, Kid?"

I nod my head, not looking at him. "I can feel it."

We all start looking around to find where that person would be but we couldn't. Dad was getting pissed. "Can't see a damn thing."

"I can take care of that." Storm's eyes turn white as she clears the fog.

When we can see, we see many things floating in midair. A rock floats in front of my dad's face and he just pokes it away. Storm walks in another area, looking for clues as my dad was just absorbing where we were. I felt Bobby jab my ribs and when I turn to glare at him, he just point off in the distance.

When I follow his eyes, I see something that shocked me like a lightning bolt would. There, floating in midair, I saw Scott's red pair of sunglasses. I run over to them and pick them up, gently. The boys follow me and they both examine it, seeing if it really was Scott's.

Off in the distance, we hear Storms scared voice. "Logan!"

We run to where she was and we saw the person who I felt earlier. There was Jean, lying unconscious on the rocks. Storm looks up at us. "She's still alive."

I look over at my dad as he stares at her and whispers, "Jean?" at that moment, I knew we were going to be in some serious trouble.

Bobby grabbed my arm and pulled me back to the jet. He didn't need to say thing to let me know he was there. He just sat next to me with his arm over my shoulder, rubbing my arm gently as I rested my head on his shoulder. We got Jean in the jet and headed back to the mansion.

When we got there, my dad took her to the Professor while Bobby and I went back up to my room. We just had the music playing in the background as we were messing around. He was helping me get my mind off everything. Bobby was throwing some chunks of ice or anything with ice at me while I was blocking it. Sometimes I would throw a book at him and he would give me a 'Really?' look.

The next day, I was in the kitchen eating lunch when my dad came in. the look on his face told me something wasn't good. He sat across from me and took my small hands in his. "Kid…the Professor, Storm and I…we got a mission to go on and we agreed you guys shouldn't come along on this one. We have to go after Jean and it's too dangerous."

I didn't really know how to respond. I knew something like this would happen one day, just not today. I look at him and stare in the same eyes he had given me. "Alright, but just promise you'll be back safe, ok? I don't wanna find any scratch, bruise, o-you know what never mind about that. I forgot you heal so screw that. Just promise that you'll come back alive."

"I promise. And I trust you to watch over the mansion while we're gone. It might take us a day or just a few hours and I know that's not long but you remember what happened the last time the mansion was attacked."

"You trust me with something this big?"

"Yeah, I wouldn't trust anyone else." I could tell he wasn't lying in the slightest bit. I got up from my seat and hugged him around the waist as he wrapped his arms around my shoulder.

"Ok. Love you, Dad. Stay safe."

"Love you too, Kid. You know I don't get hurt. Other people do."

He smirks and leaves the mansion with Storm and the Professor. Bobby stayed with me and we kept the children entertained. It was a happy day until they came home hours later. When they walked in the door, it was only Storm and my dad.

I was confused at what happened in those short hours but when we all heard that the Professor was dead, it seemed like the mansion itself was dead. There were no sounds at all. No footsteps, no laughter, no yelling, no music, no crashing, no people. Everyone was in there room, sulking all alone, not knowing what to do.

It was like that for weeks even after the funeral. It seemed worse for me because that same week, I lost my older brother Scott. Storm was the one who took care of the funeral. We set his headstone in the garden.

"We live in an age of darkness. A world full of fear, hate, and tolerance. But in the end every age, there are those who fight against it. Charles Xavier was born to a world divided. A world he tried to heal. A mission he never saw accomplished. It seems the destiny of great men to see their goaIs unfuIfiIIed. CharIes was more than a Ieader, more than a teacher. He was a friend."

As Storm talked, I looked up and saw my father on the top of the hill, watching us. He had his arms folded across his chest. It seemed like we made eye contact because I saw him look at me and give me a small smile. One I haven't seen in days.

"When we were afraid, he gave us strength. And when we were aIone, he gave us a famiIy. He may be gone, but his teachings Iive on through us, his students. Wherever we may go, we must carry on his that's a vision of a worId united."

I was close to tears by then and Bobby grabbed a hold of my hand, guiding my head to lean on his shoulder. I looked up and saw my dad turning away to leave. We all stood up; ready to leave when I walked up to the stone. I placed a single red rose in front of it, next to the burning fire.

That night, I was lying in my bed, hugging a pillow tight to my chest as I cried. I heard a knock on my door and I quickly tired to wipe my tears away before someone entered my room and sat next to me. When I look up, I see my boyfriend, Bobby.

He gives me a sad smile before pulling me into his arms. "How are ya holding up, Kitten?"

"…I could be better."

He smiles a bit and slowly lets go. He jerks his head toward the door."Come on. I wanna show you something."

"But Storm and my dad said to stay in our rooms."

"Don't worry, we won't get caught. And besides, you daddy's little girl. You have him wrapped around you finger."
