You did it a LOT of justice! awesome! I loved every word ... well, OK: the middle parts, the early section of the action scene, and the part where Mystique comes in -- THAT part could stand to be re-worked, especially to add some believable rationale why Kitty & Kurt didn't, for example, just use their mutations to pull everyone out of there, or why they all couldn't simply run OUT the door if it was possible for Logan to run IN! And for why they had to wait to destroy all the Sentinels b4 shutting the program down. You *could* have exercised your creative juices to fill in those important plot holes; your creativity elsewhere in this story proves that you are perfectly capable. You just didn't take the trouble to do it! That was a bit of laziness showing thru in your writing style, and it's not the first time I've seen it this story, so that's a weakness of yours.

However, a great strength is your ability to write affecting scenes! You can make ppl feel very strong emotions right along with your characters in moments of drama both mild & intense, and you used the skill to great effect here.

You hope that you did a DR scene gone wrong justice. Ha! You totally blew this one out of the water. I've got to say that this was your best chapter yet. Bravo!!

The interaction between Rogue and Logan was beautifully done. Very sweet. And the "death scene" was just perfect. Really tugged on the heart strings.

I'm glad that Jubes is stepping up and turning into a friend for Marie. :D I always did like her!

I'm really curious to see if the rest of the X-geeks will accept our girl now. And the mysterious mission that the professor, Logan, and the **ahem** person went on. Did the prof set Jean straight?

But I gotta say, I still think that you should kill Jean. She just needs killin'. Heck she's practically begging for it. Please. Pretty please with a cherry on top. Just think about okay. Please?!

Author's Response: Thanks sooo much!! Glad I did it justice. As for killing Jean...I haven't decided. I guess you will just have to read on and see!!!!
