A bar

[Jamie Madrox]

Jamie Madrox entered a bar, unsure of himself. He used to be part of the League of X-Men, mutant heroes, but now he was in a different team, Taskforce-X, and it bugged him, not severly but it bugged him all the same. He ordered a drink and sat down.

[Angel]

Warren Worthington III stepped into this bar from outside, concealing his wings and his famous identity from the people outside. He spotted an old friend and made his ay across.

"Jamie? That you?" he asked confidently.

[Jamie Madrox]

"Huh? Oh jeez Warren! Where've you been?"

[Angel]

"Workin', where else?" Warren replied with a broad grin. "How ya been? What's goin' on?"

[Jamie Madrox]

"I'm good. I'm no Leaguer but I've joined Taskforce-X. They're an okay group. So, no longer a Leaguer, huh? You miss it?"

[Angel]

"I do, I have to say. But I'm still part time y' know, so perhaps one day I'll go back." Warren said with certainty. "How come you left 'em to be part of this Taskforce-X thing?"

[Jamie Madrox]

"I....I didn't want to get too close and lose someone again. You were closer to Jean, you have to know why I left." Jamie said, "She's gone over to the other side now. And I didn't want to see that again. I figured I wouldn't come across her with the Taskforce stuff."

[Angel]

"Oh..." He said softly. "I hadn't really thought about her- what happened. Does anyone know why she left yet?"

Warren sighed. "I buried myself in work to forget I suppose, I figured it was a dream, but anyway. I suppose things are easier for us all if we try and avoid that stuff."

[Jamie Madrox]

"It's harder for Carter, he's still at the Institute, so's Ray. Hey, you hear anything about Scott?" Jamie said, "And yeah, Taskforce-X is really good, we've got a nice HQ."

[Angel]

"Those guys are impressive, I have to admit." he answered first then sighed. "I've heard nothing from anyone, I sorta hoped you might have done. She messed us all up a lot... Amazing what one woman can do, eh?"

Warren half smiled. "I'm glad the new position you've got is good. Let me buy you a drink?"

[Jamie Madrox]

"You want in? It's really not bad, but we could always use a pro."

[Angel]

"I don't know - I'm a part-timer at the League still - if they call me." He shrugged. "I'd like to but... I have a business to run and part time super, it'd only be as and when Jamie."

[Jamie Madrox]

"I could make a duplicate and he could look after your business." Jamie offered, "Besides it's all about mutant-rights."

[Angel]

"Mutant rights.... I suppose." Warren said thoughtfully. "I could see the gain in that one."

"But still, I have a commitment to Alan, I'd feel bad if I couldn't be there when he needed me, same as you would, I'm certain. Put my name down as a volunteer, then if you need me, then gimme a call and I'm beyond there."

[Jamie Madrox]

"Okay, I'll tell my boss. Just call if you wanna chat or join or whatever." Jamie said handing Warren his phone-number.
