Pete lowered his head and had a look on his face that expressed the weight of all of this was weighing for him.. He then looked over to Dana and felt a strong connection to her.. He really missed the old days when they were a team..
"I know they feel I will be loyal to them.. I worked very hard to make them feel secure in that but I also know some of them will always see me as a threat because I am a mutant.. In truth I am Loyal to the United Kingdom.. I am also loyal to Krakoa because we live in a world that we have these refugees that need this place to survive.. I have seen the woman and the children that did not make it.. I saw the mass graves and then their is those that are locked away in hidden labs for experimentation.. It sounds like you have a new life now and I don't want to take you away from that.. I am going to need help to balance both camps.. I will be reaching out to old Excalibur mates to create a network that I will be able to work with.. Both Brian and Betsy will work well with that.. I want to enjoy this Dana but I already see the work I have to do to protect this and honestly Luv I do not see this going to go well for me in the end.."

"I thought I was, too," Bethany said to Citian as she started to reach out her hand to him, but then she stopped. "I know a lot of time has passed. You have another life now. Other people in it. Whatever space is left, I will fill it as life allows."
Bethany had seen a lot during her time away, and much of it was through a window back into this world. She took a deep breath as she tried to smile at Citian. Her hands shook as she tried to push back the jagged thoughts and memories. "I just want you to be happy. That is what I want for you and...Jett? Something happened. Before I landed back here. Wait. Finola is there. Where is Aoife? You sister Aoife. The one from Camelot, Citian. She was headed here."
As she spun around, Bethany saw all the refugees and thought she saw Citian's eldest sister in the distance. "She is here, just helping people. Sorry. I am still getting used to this new place. Could you introduce me to Jett and the original five? Maybe I can help."
"Jett was an illusion created by his mother and has left.. She was apart of the Romulus group that decided to leave together.." He said as his hand slid up over his chest again.. Citian was heart broken and was trying very hard to control his emotions.. "I will be fine I am doing everything I can to get through it.. Hope has been a rock of mine like she always has.." He said but it was no surprise to Bethany.. Citian and Hope summers were the closes of siblings.. Before he continued Hope hurried over as if he had summoned her from a spell of speaking her name.. In truth Hope had been keeping a heavy eye on her older brother and saw Bethany and rushed over..

"Bethany!!" Hope spouted out as she ran over and wrapped her arms around Bethany..
"I am so happy to see you again!" Hope said as she stepped back and wiped the tears from her eyes.. Hope was very close to Bethany and saw her as a sister.. And with what had happen to Citian she was heart broken but the one person that she knew her brother loved deeply was back..
"How are you doing?. You look well.."

"Yes, it is really me, and I somehow think your alleged hallucinations were not caused by mushrooms," Finola said to James as she extended her hands to him and grasped his. "Where I was, I often felt I was seeing you as well, and I know for a fact I did not ingest anything that could cause me to hallucinate, unless..."
Finola did not do flustered well, but here she was starting to panic a bit as she glanced back at Bethany. She took a deep breath and turned back to James. "I can explain that later. Not on Gallion and Jubilee's wedding day. Suffice it to say, I was somewhere that is not in this world, and it might need investigating down the line. You look magnificent, as always. Congratulations to you and your family on this truly happy day! I wish I had been here for the ceremonies, but fate is the cruelest of mistresses at times."
As she looked at Damien and Alice, Finola smiled as she saw Duncan as well. "I am so glad to be back. So, how much of this has your signature on it, James? This place is truly a marvel."
"Not an illusion?" James said as he touched the side of Finola's face and jumped back when he felt her her skin and realized she was really real.. He then pulled her into a hug and lifted her up in the air and spun her around him..
"Your real and back!" He spouted out and put her down..
"It's a bloody miracle!. I have missed you so much and hoped for this day for so long!.. And yes I am going to be the head science guy while Henry is going to be very busy in his new position.. I am really happy to see you and to know you are alive!"

Betsy put her hands over her mouth and her eyes became wide when she saw the house her husband created for them.
"Blue it's a dream!" She said as Saber took a hold of her hand and they headed inside. The inside was just as epic as the outside.
"I really love it! And your right this is the perfect location to the city and the ocean. I think we are going to be very happy here." She said as she stood in the doorway and waved for the rest of the Braddock family to come join them.
"I created the inside by everything we talked about what we wanted in a home.. We will be happy here but I am also thinking we should bring Krakoa to the Lighthouse.. I think the Marauders will be dealing with a lot of global stuff but Europe has it share of mutant problems.. I am thinking a new Excalibur team might be needed.. Your thoughts?" Saber said as Brian and Meggan walked into the new home..

"A new Excalibur team?" Rictor said as he overheard Saber as Shatterstar and him also arrived at the same time as the Braddocks.. Rictor had a long history with Saber.. When he first became an official New Mutant back in the day.. A young Saber became one of his teachers and taught him combat.. Both Saber and Rictor became good friends..
"I have been wanting something new in my life for some time.. Ever since we were at my club and then at Harry's Omnia showed the past.. I saw mutants using both their powers and magic like you do.. I would like to learn magick and I am kind of entrest in this new Excalibur team.." Rictor said as he looked around the living room..

Rose and Rockslide walked up the ramp together onto the caravan ship that was Warlock.
"I have to admit I am so excited to see our new home and the area that all of will be living at. This is going to be a lot cooler than living at the mansion. I really did living on Utopia and I missed it a lot but this is way beyond that. This is a paradise beyond anything I could image for us."
"We are going from a dorm room in a mansion to sharing a house on a island in a neighborhood with a waterfall and a river.. This is awesome!!" Santo shouted out with much excitement..
"Seriously can it get better than this?"

"Not really!. This is paradise and I can not wait to move here.. I am not happy about packing my things but I do not have too much to pack really.. That is my goal when I wake up tomorrow after we party the night away.." Victor looked over at Ray.. I am glad your going to Visit.. With the gates it should be easy to be able to hang our more.." Anole wanted to try and talk Ray into moving to the island but he knew that would not work.. He was just happy that Ray was around and now would be able to hang out more with the gates..

"They look so real!" Jeanie Marie said when the direwolves appeared from Daken's half brother Jason. She carefully approached one of the wolves a black one and brushed her hand onto it's back.
"It sure does feel like a real wolf!" She said as she continued to pet it and was surprised when it turned it's head and licked her across the face which made Aurora laugh.
"Jason this is Jean Marie AKA Aurora a friend of our father from his Alpha Flight days.. She has became someone close to me.." Akihiro said as he looked over at Aurora and gave her a wink as he walked over to another wolf and began to pet it..
"She's right this direwolf feel very much real!" Daken said as he pet the white one.. He was very surprised by how the fur felt across his fingers..

"More things change the more they stay the same." Lorna said to her father while she watched Exodus join the refugees as they headed for the city.
"This is going to be a lot different than Genosha and Utopia this time. They will come for us that we both know will be true. This time we have to be more than ready to meet any attack. It will be nice to be on an island that can fight back."
"It will be very much different than both Genosha and Utopia.. We are united and we have a better structure and a strong political system moving forward on a global level.. They will come for us Lorna.. Your right about that but we will be ready.." Magneto answered Polaris as he put his arm around her..
"This is our homeland.. The nation of Krakoa the home of all mutants.."

Yuna hugged Sunfire and was so happy as was he. "I really think we can be very happy here and make this place our home. I also really want to be a member of the X-Men more than ever now. I feel like this is my legacy and always has been. Being the daughter of Wolverine and the cousin of Sunfire."
"Yuna we can be X-Men together.. I think that would be a good thing for us both. You and I are born warriors and this land will need us.. It has been a very long time since I have been an X-Man.. I was also not the nicest person to be around.." Shiro said as Yuna laughed which made him laugh too.. "But I think that I am doing better than I was.."

"Your right Wade, this place is going to have a big target on it's back and they is our purpose in all this. We are the ones that are going to have to do whatever it takes to protect it from our enemies. That is what X-Force is now and it will be crazy but that is what I am built for. Are you up to the job Wade?"
"Like you really have to ask that.. Of course I am all in!. I am going to enjoy all of this for sure but I will enjoy defending this place a lot more.. Why you ask Dom?. Because that is how good old Wade is built.. I was born for all of this.. Play hard.. Fight harder!. So now we really need on this island to make this perfect is it's own Harry's.. That needs to happen for sure.. So who do we talk to around here to make that happen?"

"Great location for some good weather!" Alison responded to Kwannon as she threw her arms up and took a moment to take in the sun.
"I am going to create the first Krakoan music studio and get all the artist on this island to make a Krakoa music scene. Maybe we can get Rictor to make a new night club here. So many possibilities that my head is spinning!" Dazzler became very excited by her own ideas of the future.
"We now have our own nation and speaking in our own language.. We are making our own culture as all of us here are founders in this new world.. So Alison your ideas of the first Krakoa music studio and producing new music from here is history in the making.. We live in exciting times!" Kwannon responded to Dazzler as she looked off at Saber and Betsy's new house off in the distance.. She was very happy for them but it was also hard for her as well..

"More family?!" Shalimar said as she hurried over to where the group of her siblings were.
"We wanted to come over sooner but we were in the process of talking to Beast about joining the soon to be intelligence service for Krakoa." She said as she stopped speaking for a moment. She recognized the signature but not the face.
"Jason? Is that you?"

"I still have nightmares about Genosha and I enjoyed Utopia while it lasted but this is different. How this is going to go is going to change everything. This is a feeling of promise for all of us going forward. Every mutant on the earth is going to have the nation of Krakoa behind them. We have a government and a political structure that the UN is standing behind. It is something we did not have before." Lorna said to her father as they continued to watch all the refuges heading to the city.
