((Okay basically this is a normal future thread, no Apocalypse, etc etc. It's more of everyone who left Xavier's has returned for one reason or another and how the characters will react seeing each other again. Let's say seven years into the future then?))

Ellen looked out the window of the taxi. It had been seven years since she left this place. Seven long years of a marriage and then a divorce, and a publishing of her book and overseeing the movie that was being made of it. Seven years and so much had happened, she was older now, maybe even a stronger person.
Ellen the looked away from the window and continued her crochet in her lap, an old habit she had never really lost no matter how many times Cole made fun of her for it.
Cole....there was someone she hadn't thought of for a long time, probably the last time was wondering where he was during her wedding but that had been that. If he had been there he would have bluntly pointed out how her ex-husband was a loser and she should dump him at the alter and go get some drinks. Or something along those lines. Even if what he said was jerky, Cole usual said it for a reason.
Ellen smirked, seven years was too long to be away from Xavier's. As the taxi stopped and Ellen quickly put her crochet away and got out of the taxi, got her bags, and paid the man. May people wondered why she just didn't fly to Xavier's it would have been cheaper. But Ellen for a while now was desperately trying to feel human. She hadn't flown in forever, she wasn't sure if she still could. She just didn't feel like using her powers since the divorce.
She listened to her footsteps as the gravel crunched underneath her feet. Looking at Ellen people would see a twenty-six year old woman with a pretty round face that always looked tired. She had once been overweight but straightened herself out and had a body that Carmen Elektra would drool over. She had finally lost her blond highlights and gone completely blond, and somehow it suited her.
Ellen looked at the door to Xavier's and wondered what to do next.

Kevin followed Eliza out the door, and smiled at Ellen. Team Sigma had long since disbanded, and it was nice to see her face again. And damn, what a body!
"Ellen," he grinned, "How have you been?"

"Kev is that really you?" Ellen asked rushing up to her old teamate and embracing him in a hug, "It's been so long! What have you been up to?"

"Not alot," he said, embracing her back, "Working in New York as a special effects engineer for a few TV shows and such. I hear you've been quite busy."

"Eh same old same old, book got published, best seller, now it's being made into a movie. But enough about me look at you, you look awesome!" Ellen said leaving out her marriage, divorce, and two kids, there would be more time for that later.

"Thanks," he smiled, "I got contacts, and worked out a little."
He held out his arm, motioning her to follow him inside, "Hey, have you heard from Cole lately?"

Ellen's eyes darkened as she followed Kevin, "No I haven't we haven't spoke since the fight we had before I moved to Ireland, I invited him to my wedding but he never showed," she finished sighing.

Kevin looked shocked. He had previously thought that Cole would find her after it came out about her divorce, and he was almost worried that he didn't, "Huh," was his sole response, emotionless and cold.

"Yeah that was my response after he didn't show up to the wedding, heck I wanted him to, the reception was thrown by the ex's family and it was boooring," Ellen said a little sadly.

Kevin chuckled, "hell, he would have ruined it. You know that right? Probably would've gotten drunk, and professed his love for you."

"Don't worry I was drunk too, we probably would have professed our love for each other and then tried to sing that Sonny and Cher song....wait he loved me?" Ellen asked just getting what Kevin said.

Kevin's eyes widened, and he stammered over his words, "I, well... he said that...yeah."
He slowed down, "He did. You loved him too?"

"Hell I don't know I guess I did, until our last fight," Ellen said scratching her head and frowning, "We said a lot of hurtful things to one another."

"Yeah, he said that to," Kevin nodded, "He told me he knew he couldn't make you happy, and that was around the time I lost touch with him."

"Yeah, I guess I did say that," Ellen said, "I wonder what happened to him?"

"I dunno," Kevin said, "I haven't heard from him in years. I guess he took it harder than I thouht."
He forced himself to change to topic, "Heard from Christian lately, by the by?"

"Oh please, I think he's hiding out waiting for Amelia to be legal age," Ellen said rolling her eyes, "Never was the same after she left."

Kevin smiled, remembering back on the times with Amelia, and the Leacy Virus, "Wouldn't be shocked, but he never was a patient kinda guy."
