---Present Day---

Logan woke up dazed and confused. He sat up and tried to the hologram clock. Taking in he was in a room, not one that he remembered but decided to see what was going on. He got up and opened the door to step out. He was in the school and it was full of children heading to classes at the start of the day. Down the hall he saw Bobby leaning against one of the door frames and out stepped Rouge. She smiled at him and they walked off.

Logan walked down the halls of the buzzing school seeing classes in progress. Kitty stood at the front giving a presentation with Colosus next to her watching over the class. Then Hank walking down the halls

"Good morning Logan, Late start." Hank chuckled making Logan slightly confused and happy. He made his way downstairs and saw Storm with some of the children

"Storm." he mumbled but she had eft before he made the last step. He was beginning to realise the the was back in the future. The one that was now saved and the past 50 years he remembered, never happened. That's when he noticed her, the vibrant redhead he had fallen in love with.

Jean Grey

She hadn't noticed him, she was leant agains the a doorframe with her back to him but soon turned around.

"Hey Logan." She greeted "Are you okay?" she wondered

"You're here." he mumbled now stood across from her

"Where else would I be?" she asked. He reached out to her but was stopped by Scott.

"Whoa, easy pal." he chuckled and lowered the hand

"Well some things never change." Logan commented slapping his hand on Scott's shoulder "It's good to see you, Scott." Scot was baffled

"Uh-huh. See you later Jean." He left.

"Professor.... Philippa." he breathed seeing the two in Charles' office. The older Philippa was conversing quietly with Charles showing hims something

"Logan is everything alright?" Jean questioned

"Yeah, I think it is." Logan smiled. Jean nodded and left too. Logan watched as the two chatted and Philippa was pointing to things.

"You did it." he spoke to them

"Did what?" Charles questioned looking up to him. Pippa stood upright and went to grab a book from one of the shelves.

"Logan don't you have a class to teach. Students to annoy with your grumpy ways." Pippa commented flipping through the book.

"A class to teach?" he questioned

"Yes, history." Charles answered moving around his desk in his chair.

"History. Actually I could use some help with that." Logan replied

"Help with what?" Charles wondered

"Pretty much everything after 1973." Longan answered and Pippa's head snapped up "I think the history I know is a little different." Pippa dropped the book

"Welcome back." she grinned

"It's good to see you Charles, you to Pippa. it's good to see everyone." Pippa moved to stand next to her brother.

"Well, I had a promise to keep." Charles answered  "We have a lot of catching up to do."

"What's the last thing you remember" Pippa questions and Logan scowls

"Drowning."

-Pippa-

I walked through the hall with Logan as the school day continued. It was my turn to catch him up because Charles had a class to teach.

"So, i have to ask, from what I remember you and Lizzie weren't around is that.." I shook my head

"No. Obviously I don't know the reason for you never meeting her but Lizzie is the school nurse here. I had a son, Henry. He doesn't work here but is a neuroscientist in the city." I told him as we made our way towards the infirmary.

"Wow." he replied. i laughed

"Okay I gotta ask this as well. How are you still so young? You haven't aged a day in the 50 years." he commented stopping to face me.

"I do age it's just as a daughter of the Earth as Hank likes to call it, it's just slower, my raging slowed long before we met. Though with it is a curse because I will eventually outlive my husband if not my entire family." I answer sadly "But I try not to think like that. Anyway let's return to the history, you need to be teaching." I continued to walk hm through what he had missed
