Everything comes to an end. Life, love… Time. As the old timeline was overwritten, the world found itself thrown into a newer world. Memories were wiped and history had a cataclysmal change. Everything that had been rebuilt and known, was quickly thrown out of the window.

In a flash, everyone grew up. Their memories changing for better or for worse, living new lives. On November 24th, 2019 the world shuddered. Time, for many, was kicking off and changing right here.

Tonight the Institute re-opened. And tonight, a nation celebrated the Birthday of a Princess.

In the grand hall of the Westchester Mansion a crowd had gathered at the foot of a large staircase that rose up and wrapped around to the upper floors, curling like a fossil. Midway up the stairs, holding onto a glass of white wine stood Dr. Charky the Headmaster of the Xaviers Institutute for Gifted Youngsters. He rose the glass above him in the air, smiling at the staff and students at gathered bwloe.

“Ladies, Gentlemen and young people. I am pleased to reopen the Institute following the fire earlier this year. The one caused by young John Allerdyce after his outburst. Unfortunately he will not be returning as part of his own decision.”

He takes a small sip of his drink, using it to think for a moment about his next words. “However, that shouldn’t prevent us from having fun once more. With help from all of you, we can celebrate within the new recreation room. All I ask is that you drink responsibly. If you have the need to use the new outdoor pool, try to use it while Sober.”

He steps down the staircase, having finished his speech, smiling like a cheshire cat. He was joyous about the occasion. The fires that spread could have been far worse, but they were fortunate it was put down quickly. Allowing for the students to come back.

Of to the left of the Great Hall, the recreation room and smaller kitchen area had been built up and stocked with party food, drinks, games etc. Everything that would appeal to the youngsters and the adults.

He knew it wouldn’t be long before it spilled out into the rest of the grounds. As as soon as it would, it would be the primary time to make himself scarce. The students didn’t need a person of authority hanging over them all the time, especially one so stern as he.

Welcome to the new timeline. Several people will have fallen through time to land here. Straight from the original timeline. The stronger telepaths, may remember directly the old timeline as they explore this new one. But for the rest of you, your memories of the old world are gone.

This timeline is now what you guys make of it. You will see that some things from the old timeline may not have changed. And some things may. But there are new threats, new discoveries and much more. As we finish the time travel plot finally (Yay for getting stuck on a certain part of the plot!) I will be able to delve into far more detail. (Cough, Trask, cough)

ENJOY!
