Days of Becoming, Chapter 40
Title: Days of Becoming, Chapter 40: “The Strange, Clear Light of Morning”
Author: Talktooloose
’Verse: X-Men movieverse
Betas: mofic and lux_apollo. Helping me make it all make sense
Disclaimers: Marvel and 20th Century own the X-Men, I own my original characters. The People own the Internet.
Series Summary: This novel focuses mainly on the paths Iceman and Pyro take on their way to adulthood and how they discover and deal with their love for each other. It is a novel about what Joni Mitchell calls ”the dream's malfunction” and how we can learn to make our own dreams when our heroes fail us. Other X characters (including ones from comicverse and elsewhere) and OC's play prominent roles and the action begins before X1, continues through the events of X2 and X3 and concludes in the aftermath of that movie. This novel does not take X-Men Origins: Wolverine as canon.
Previously in Days of Becoming: The last few days have witnessed incredible tumult and tragedy. Charles Xavier has been killed by Jean Grey in her Phoenix manifestation before she herself died on Alcatraz at the hands of Wolverine. Rogue has disappeared from the school, sneaking out in the early hours of the morning to get "cured." Thousands of American mutants have taken the cure including - unwittingly - Magneto himself during the battle on Alcatraz. In the final moments of that battle, when the Phoenix force was destroying all in its path, Bobby broke away from his X-Men comrades to save John, carrying his unconscious body off the battle field and across San Francisco Bay.
