It has been 20 days since the departure of the Guardians of the Galaxy and things in Genosha had calmed down.
People returned to their routine life.
They were rare days of peace...

7:00 PM
Alex, who is in his office, has a happy smile on his face as he does his work.
Callisto, who is helping him, rolls her eyes in exasperation at Alex's joy.
"Can you wipe that goofy grin off your face?" Callisto said as she read some reports.
"Why, can't you see this is my way of showing my joy?" Alex said with a big smile on his face.
Callisto decided to ignore him.
Alex's happiness was due to the news he received two days ago.
Emma and Lorna are pregnant and barely a month.
And like Alex there were two others who had idiotic smiles on their faces.
Erik and Pietro, since they would return grandfather and uncle respectively.
Emma and Lorna found out about their pregnancy by going through the same changes that Wanda went through.
Their physical strength, reaction capabilities, and cell regeneration increased exponentially.
And those improvements will only increase over time, since that's what happened with Wanda.
Alex had to admit that his 'Genetic Adapter' gift was very overpowered in that regard.
What he was wondering was if his 'Hysteria Mode' would be inherited by his children since that was some kind of bloodline inheritance.
The only thing Alex hopes is that they can control it and that they don't need to develop some kind of fetish like Tohyama Kinji's older brother.
Just thinking of that happening sent chills down Alex's spine.
Stopping thinking about that subject, he concentrated on the papers in front of him.
In a few days there would be a meeting of the United Nations and he would have to participate since he was now part of it.
But he wasn't too worried about what would be talked about.
At that moment, someone opened the door and entered without knocking.
She is a beautiful young woman in her twenties with flaming reddish hair and a great figure, but her dark green eyes sparkled with intensity and showed her rebelliousness.
She is the Phoenix.
Alex looks at her and only smiles wryly at her impetuosity.
But he realizes that behind her is another young woman very similar to her.
It's Jean Grey.
Yes, only recently Jean Gray had managed to recover from her psychic coma and because of that, the Phoenix, as promised, was ready to leave her body.
That is why Alex, as he did with Est and Lina, gave a little of his blood to the Phoenix and the results were surprising, not only did she get a new body, but it was very similar to Jean's so much that they looked like twins, they also shared a very powerful psychic connection.
Alex considered that this was normal since, for a time, they shared body and mind.
Another strange change was her powers, although the Phoenix kept all her powers, Jean could also use them, of course on a smaller scale but still powerful.
Once Jean Gray recovered her body, she decided to stay in Genosha and cut her ties with the X-Men.
Alex found that normal since from what she found in her sealed memories, he knew that she would never trust Professor Xavier again.
At least she didn't go crazy and wanted to kill him, so it can be considered that Charles Xavier was very lucky.
"Hello Alex, can you give me what I asked for?" the cheerful Phoenix asked.
Callisto had a strange smile on her face upon hearing her request.
Jean Gray was a bit embarrassed listening to the Phoenix.
Alex's face tightened at the Phoenix's question and he remembered the motive behind it.
The day he gave his new body to her, that girl said something that left the room silent.
She asked him for a child, since according to the Phoenix the child would be born with powers equal to hers if Alex was the father.
It was almost a plea and she pestered Alex all the time with it.
Alex understood her eagerness to want a child, since he knew that the Phoenix felt lonely.
But for them to have one, she had to learn about romantic relationships between men and women, so Irene took care of it.
"You don't have to rush with that issue, you know I'm going to live a long time so there's a lot of time to plan it" Alex said with a smile.
But the Phoenix, looking dissatisfied with Alex's response, tries to say something but Jean cuts her off saying:
"Don't be rash Phoenix, if you keep pressing him, he may refuse in the end"
Hearing Jean's words, the Phoenix falls silent, only letting out an annoyed groan before leaving the office.
"I'm sorry, she's very involved with that subject" Jean said to Alex.
Alex doesn't mind that.
"Don't worry, I know how she is" he said.
Jean nods her head in dismissal and leaves the office to catch up with the Phoenix.
"They sure are very close" Callisto commented as she watched Jean leave.
Alex just nodded and focused on the documents as if he didn't want to talk about it, this made Callisto stare at him for a few seconds before continuing with her work.
Alex breathed a quiet sigh of relief and remembered what happened last night.
The Phoenix had gone into his room to sleep with him but to his surprise, Jean also accompanied her, of course nothing happened but Alex was curious.
And Jean told him that she and the Phoenix share mutual feelings towards him, which surprised him a bit.
Of course, Alex advised her to think about it for a while to make sure that those feelings are hers, which she accepted.
And at that moment, while he was deep in thought, his Spider-Sense reacts violently.
It's something that really surprises Alex, and then he hears Alexa say:
"Mr. Wayne, we are being attacked, I already activated the anti-aircraft defenses and the energy field"
