Well, one of mah friends has multiple personalities. And each of those personalities have their own mutant power. He goes by Legion, which only makes sense.
Well one of his personalities manifested itself, and as it turns out, could literally do anything. Change the very structure of the universe, just because she wanted to. Her name was X. She wanted ta make Legion's life better. He wanted ta be a hero more'n anythin'. So she made it happen. She took the whole universe and re-wrote it. Gave everyone he knew a whole knew life, new history, so that he could live in a world where he was a hero. She even put the old universe in a little box, just for sentiment sake.
And then one night, a woman called Legacy found one of the mutants that were labeled dangerous wanderin' around near the gates of the city. The girl was taken back into custody, but Legacy found the girl's camera. She'd gone outside the wall and taken pictures. All the pictures were blank. Time stamped, but there was nothin' there. So Legacy started ta question what was really beyond the wall. It was supposed ta be the world, full of humans that hated us, and who every day tried ta tear down the wall that Legion kept in place.
So she broken into the prison to find the answers from the telepaths and psychics that were locked in there. She got caught eventually, and ended up bein' sent on the run. She managed ta get a little help, from a few odd places. Folks that she had no reason ta trust, but somehow felt like they were the safest places ta go. The leader of the city, the General, helped her and her friend fake their deaths, so they could find out what was really goin' on, without the whole city comin' after 'em.
Eventually, they found the box with the universe inside it. And that's when X showed herself. And right when she was about ta kill Legacy and start the whole mess all over again, re-write everyone but just eliminate any person that would get curious, the psychics were freed by the General, and the most powerful, Charles Xavier, woke everyone up to their true memories.
Legion was heart broken. He was betrayed by someone he thought he could trust, a piece of himself. He punished X by pullin' her back inside him, and lockin' her away in his mind forever. Then he set the world back t'the way it was meant ta be.
It hurt a lot of folk, the change back. They had a lot of happiness in the other life. But it was at the cost of a lot of lives. People had been killed in the re-write, more after in the fabricated war X had created. Their original selves came back, but those people they had been turned into were lost forever. Created and killed for no other reason than ta give the new life credibility.

Lots of folks asked the telepaths ta remove the memories of the other life. Some refused ta let them go, and those folks are still tryin' ta sort out who they are now because of it.
