Issue #1 Dawn of a new day New York City. One of the oldest cities. In this age of globalization, the stakes have never been higher as New York sits at the epicenter of world. The world is changing. If not for Heroes like its self-appointed vigilante protectors, could the city be pulled back from its destruction. Maybe that's the reasoning behind the X-men. They have been fighting for mutants and the rest of humanity. Xavier's School for Gifted Youngsters, the X-Mansion was the training site of the first two generations of teenage X-Men. In the middle of the main courtyard is the Phoenix Memorial Statue, dedicated to the memory of Jean Grey. Most of the students don't know she is still alive. Notable rooms include the Danger Room and a room containing Cerebro. The Headmasters Office of Cyclops and Emma Frost is on the top floor. The basketball court is a popular hang-out. Directly below the basketball court is the hangar, which houses many transportation vehicles, as well as aircraft such as the X-Men Blackbird. There is also a cemetery with memorials for deceased X-Men like Thunderbird, Caliban and others. A uber arrives to a left through arch-shaped, black iron gates with a plaque to the side of it, reading: Xavier's Institute for Gifted Youngsters. The driveway was surrounded by green gardens with oaks trees. It seemed like paradise. The sight of the extravagant building took the new arrivals breath away. They paid the driver, got out the Uber car and collected their bags from the trunk. Taking in the view for a few moments, the two new students started to walk towards the building. Up the steps and to the door. They rang the doorbell, waiting for a response. A day for new arrivals nothing better than a cookout to welcome them in. Most of the X-men were by the basketball court and the pool.

Kurt was healing but he needed time and space. His injuries may have healed fully but his mind was far from it. He heard a car pulling up on the gravel as he picked up a few things. He left a brief note on his desk and looked at a Bamf.
"Look after them."
The Bamf paused the saluted. Upon hearing two doors slam he moved over to the window and looked down at the two people from the car. He knew all the others were busy with a cook out and really didn't want to have company. He made sure his bible was in his pocket and kicked a box under his bed. All left neat and tidy, just as he liked it. He looked at the Bamf.
"Come get me if they need me."
He put his long raincoat on and put his hat on his head before checking his bible was still in his pocket. The note was simple.
"Gone to clear head. Bamfs are staying. K."
Looking around like he might not see this place again he Bamfed out of the room. The Bamf looked sad and moved up onto Kurt's bed where it sat.

"Not feeling like socializing either, huh?"the ruby red sunglasses and tall frame of Scott Summers had eyed the blue-furred teleporter's attempt to sneak away in a raincoat for a few seconds while he was bent over writing a note. Standing in the threshold of the door way, Scott gave him the courtesy of the moment before announcing that the one they called Nightcrawler was not alone. Scott leaned up against the door frame and folded his arms. "I don't blame you. Where you headed?"Privately, Scott didn't want to pry about his friend's whereabouts anymore than he wished them to pry into his - not with him spending the past few weeks chasing down Wolverine in Alberta - but as Cyclops, field commander of the X-Men and more specifically the squad in which Kurt was currently assigned to, he felt he should check in his teammate to make sure nothing was wrong.

Warpath1 1/2 hours ago: "Alright I'll be back soon going to get some food and supplies for the party." Jimmy jumped in his old beat-up blue ford ranger and left the area heading for his favorite Mom and Pop store called Donna's mart. After a 45-minute ride he pulled up to the small corner store off the side of the road. As he went inside down the road, he missed a strange object crash, but he heard something, so he quickly looked out the window then went outside and looked around and didn't see anything. "Oh, it is nothing Donna could I get some of your famous sweet potato pie and devil egg Potatoe salad. Looks like I'm buying almost all your hamburger and hotdogs today." Warpath goes back to the bathroom and two guys pull up on a couple Harley Davidson choppers. They walk in seeing the Lady put a couple thousand dollars in her register till. They pull a gun on Donna." Lady empty the register in this shopping bag now and we will not kill you!!" Warpath sneaks up behind both the guys as she empties the register. Throwing a watermelon at the guy with a gun he knocks the gun out of the guy's hand and then choke slams both of them to the ground by their throat. "Clean up isle one, two big peace's of trash, you don't deserve those bikes." He quickly grabs some zip ties off the shelf nearby and ties up the two guys. While she calls the police Jimmy cleans up the mess and gives her an extra 100 dollars for the trouble. He shoves the mop in the guy's face a few times just for fun. Jimmy leaves to avoid the law with his truck full of stuff. He hears a large explosion. He looks up and sees what looks like a large Skrull transport ship breaking up further down the road in the sky. He sees what looks like one of the government programs moving in the area. He shakes his head and decides to leave it alone. He heads back towards the mansion, a guy is pulled of the side of the road acting strange, but Jimmy just keeps going he wanted to get back to the party. He arrives back and unloads the truck when new people arrive. NOW: Jimmy greets the new arrivals and looks down at them trying not to smile. "I'm James Proudstar, welcome to your new home for now. Do not cause any trouble or you will have to deal with me. It is a calm time for the X-men. I still believe we are vigilant. All warfare is based on deception. Hence, when we are able to attack, we must seem unable; when using our forces, we must appear inactive; when we are near, we must make the enemy believe we are far away; when far away, we must make him believe we are near.” ― Sun tzu, The Art of War

Kurt finished the note then looked up at Scott and turned to face him fully while leaning on the desk.
"Thanks for getting Logan back."
He paused thinking what to say, tiredness was clear on him. The injuries from the fight had all healed but the exhaustion was still there.
"I am recovering. Jean has helped, as has a stranger."
He looked down at the floor as he fought back the tears. The Bamf got off the bed and touched Kurt gently on the hand it looked incredibly worried at Kurt.
"I'm broken Scott. I need to go to the monastery. I won't be long and if you need me just talk to one of the Bamfs."
He looked back up at Scott.
"I need this."
His hands were shaking. He looked back out the window as Warpath spoke to the new kids.
"If you need me to stay?..."
He knew he was free to leave any time but he wanted to show Scott that he was here if he needed. He tried to smile as he looked back to Scott but there was anguish behind his eyes.

(This takes place after Jades interactions in Texas, Canada, and her shop )
A black SUV that was an UberXL pulls up to the curve of the X Mansion . A confused and lost young woman steps out of the vehicle. Her small but athletic stature setting her apart from your average person. The sunlight catches her rainbow colored hair as Jade approaches the gates of the school. A sigh escaped the lips of the vigilante. She had returned to New York after finding out about her X-gene and being told that this was the place for mutants to find answers. She didn’t know if this was the right or wrong decision she just knew she wanted to truly understand herself and maybe what exactly it meant to have an X-gene. Plus the truth was her most recent adventure had left her a bit injured and she needed to lay low for a bit until her injuries healed.
This was the place Kurt, Jean, and even Ireland had told her to come for answers. Was this the right place for someone like her? Jade questioned this move, but she wanted to understand why she was hunted the way she was when she was younger. What was the registration act? Jade had lived on the outside for so long she never thought to look into society. She adjusted the black back pack that she wore over her black leather bomber jacket, concealing her swords with a spell that the naked eye would only see a backpack. Of course she had no intention of fighting anyone here. She was a soul reaver though and as one the blades went were she went. Jade was feeling the pain of her injuries and it was becoming more evident to her that something was affecting her abilities as well. Jade reach forward and rang the buzzer by the gate. She didn’t know what she would say or if she would even follow through with entering the grounds. All she knew right now is she needed a moment to breathe and try to get her abilities back under control again so she could heal and teleport back to her shop to start hunting again.
The truth was Jade had been in a search for answers that lead her to Canada with finding more questions then answers. When she came back Jade had went to a bar and something unknown to her was placed in her drink. She had fought her way out, but now she was still feeling the affects of whatever it was she had consumed and her injuries seemed to be worse then she knew.
It occurred in Jades fractured mind, maybe just maybe Kurt would be here, but right now her mind was fractured nothing made sense all she knew was the files she found that where hidden in her bag and the danger she escaped in that alleyway.
