Three Days Later - Dark Phoenix.

Peter had awoken from bad dreams again, he sat up in his bed and breathed heavily while he wiped sweat away from his brow with the back of his hand. He was still trying to take in all that happened to him and his friends over the last few days, everyone's lives had been affected by Jean's departure from Planet Earth.

Pulling his blankets away from himself he swung his legs over the edge of his bed, he winced has he placed his feet down on the floor. His body was still sore and bruised after Jean had tosed him to one side, it would take him sometime to get himself back into his normal speedy self. After a few moments he decided to move, he went for a quick shower and changed into his causal attire.

Next he made himself some breakfast, that's if you can call a packet of twinkies and a mug of coffee breakfast. He knew he should be eating something healthier, but right now he couldn't be bothered to use the teacher's kitchen. After he was finished he left his dorm room and closed the door behind him, he wanted to see what was going on around the school today.

Peter took his time walking along the corridor, he was trying not to go fast. Hank had advised him to take it easy, it would take his body time to get back to it's full potential. It did drive him crazy having to go slow though, but there was nothing he could do about it for now.

Turning right into another corridor he stopped dead, he could see Scott standing at the other end of the corridor by the staircase that lead to the main hallway of the school. Peter hadn't really spoken to Scott since Jean left, he didn't really know what to say to him. Scott had been distancing himself from everybody in the school, it would take time for him to adjust without the love of his life around.

Peter sighed while he watched Scott leave, he then walked down the rest of the corridor and made his way downstairs to the main hub of the school. There was a group of students gathered by a side table, he had no idea what they were doing so he went over to investagate. But to his surprise they were making a shrine for Raven, they had placed a framed photograph of her and a vase of Irises on the table.

" Hey Peter!"

The voice of the student caught his attention, he looked at the young girl standing next to him. Her name was Kitty, she had the mutant ability to phase through any object. Peter had helped her out now and again with her homework, she had a long way to go yet though in the world of maths.

" Sup kiddo?" He asked.

" Do you think Raven would have liked her shrine?" She asked.

" Raven would have loved it, but I think there's one thing missing from the table." He replied.

" What's that?" She asked.

" A packet of M&Ms, she loved them." He replied with a slight smile. " One time she had a packet of them in her pocket in the Danger Room, let's say they fell out of her pocket and caused an accident."

" I'll see if I can find a packet at lunch time, thanks Peter." She said.

Peter watched the students leave, morning classes would be starting soon. He made his way to the table and looked at the flowers, he hadn't been to visit Raven's grave yet since he was meant to be resting. But since he was up and about he could pay his respects to his fallen friend, her grave sight wasn't that far from the school.

Taking two Irises from the vase he glanced over his shoulder before took a packet of strawberry flavoured bubble gum from his hoody's pocket, he placed them next to the framed photograph of Raven. That was his gift for Raven's shrine, it was a weird gift but he knew Raven would have laughed about it.

Peter took another glance at Raven's photograph before he walked off down the corridor, he passed many classrooms. The students were doing their daily lessons and he even saw Storm teaching her class about weather elements, she was using her mutant ability to teach them. He'd actually sat in some of her lessons, she was really a good teacher and she made it fun which was totally awesome for the students.

Turning into another corridor he noticed Charles wheeling his way towards him, the Professor looked tired and drained. He had been spending a lot time in his office lately, Peter knew Charles had been struggling over Jean's departure and the death of Raven. He wasn't the only one though, he knew that Hank wasn't on speaking terms just yet with Charles.

Peter stopped and waited for Charles, he hadn't been around when the Professor made the decision to go after Jean and try to save her. To be honest he probably would have taken Charles's side, he knew Raven would have wanted to save their fellow team member. He smiled at Charles when he finally got closer to him, the Professor stopped in front of him and gave him a worrying look.

" I thought you were meant to be resting." Charles said.

" I know, but there's something I need to do." Peter said.

" Peter, it can wait." Charles said, his speaking tone was soft." Raven would want you to rest, she cared for your wellbeing."

Peter sighed, he knew Charles must have read his mind unless he was thinking out loud again. It happened now and again while he was around the Professor, some of his thoughts had amused him and others raised some questions. Especially his thoughts about aliens and Ms Pac-Man, he thought about weird things to cover up his deeper darker secrets.

" You know that I will leaving the school soon, but I want you to know I will always be there for you." Charles said. " You know when I've set up a landline in Paris, I will be sending my residential details to Hank in due time."

" So you're really leaving?" Peter asked.

" I've got no choice." Charles replied, he made eye contact with Peter and sighed. " I cannot fix what is broken, but I know for a fact the school will be in safe hands with Hank. I know you will play your part in keeping the students safe, I have faith in all of you."

" I know that, but it won't be... I mean, we'll miss you." Peter said.

Peter was really going to miss Charles, he had met him in the most bizarre way back in 1973. He hadn't expected to make friends from something really illegal, he hadn't even had the chance to speak to him about Erik being his Father yet. He really wanted to reach out to Erik more than ever lately, especially after Raven's death. Maybe this would be the only chance he'd ever get to speak to the Professor about it.

" Charles, have you heard from Erik lately?" Peter asked.

" You wish to seek him out, am I correct?" Charles asked.

" What? No, I mean I guess so..." Peter replied in a confused tone. " Do you know something? Tell me, what do you know?"

" I've known for sometime now, it's hard to ignore your thoughts when you're thinking them out loud in the middle of morning assemblies." A slight smile crept across Charles's face. " I never brought up the subject out of respect for your privacy. Peter, if you ever need my help I'll be here to support you. I've known Erik for a very long time, the man is stubborn but he may listen."

" I don't know bro, what if he rejects me?" Peter asked.

" It's a risk I'm afraid you'd have to take, the decision is yours Peter." Charles replied while he wheeled himself forward. " I have business to attend to, but find me later if you wish to continue this conversation. I will be in my office."

" Sure, thanks Professor." Peter said.

Peter watched Charles wheel himself down the corridor before he made his way to the main entrance of the school, he opened the door and walked outside. The day was rather pleasant and there wasn't one single cloud in the blue sky, he hadn't really been outside since he got injured.

The school's grounds were empty and quiet since all the students were in their lessons right now, it was probably for the best since Peter wanted a little bit of privacy at Raven's graveside. Following the pathway from the main entrance of the school he kept his gaze on the ground while he walked, all he could think about was Raven right now.

Raven was the first person he had told about Erik being his Father, she didn't keep that secret for long though since she told Storm. But that didn't matter, she was a good friend and mentor. The late night chats they had in the teacher's kitchen over coffee and croissants, training in the Danger Room. He was going to miss the little things, those were the kind of memories he treasured.

Peter continued to remember his fallen friend has he left the pathway, he walked up a steep hill and rested his hand on his side. His body was still pretty bruised and tender, his face was healing fast though. Getting to the top of the hill he stopped next to Raven's graveside, there were stone angels and flowers already on her grave. The students must have been visiting her grave and leaving gifts for her, she was a hero to them.

Standing at Raven's graveside was one of the hardest things that Peter had ever had to do, but he never got the chance to say goodbye to her. When he had heard the news about Raven his heart had sank, he always looked up to her has a friend and mentor. She had taught him so many things over the years, she would be truly missed by everybody at the school.

Wiping his nose on his hoody's sleeve he placed the two Irises on her grave, the blue flowers reminded him of Raven. Not just because they were blue, they symbolized valor, courage, wisdom and beauty. Everything that she was in life, a true hero.

" Rest in peace Raven, I'll make you proud."
