I,m curious why does almost everyone think the wizards would lose if they went to war with muggles, granted in an all out war on the battlefireld muggles would win with sheer numbers alone, but if voldie vanished their resoures, and destryed there ways to make bullets and guns and other wepons, then they would likely win.

Ah, 'twas great to have another chapter. I don't think either Snape nor Tommy-boy understands just where Charles Xavier stands on morality (actually, I'm not at all certain that even Magneto could stomach Tommy-boy's ideals). In any case, it's going to be amusing seeing Tommy and Deeters trying to persuade these folks to his point of view. Meanwhile, Harry's starting the rpocess of considering and recoonecting with friends and it does look like Ginny's got a better position than Hermione does (that "You're more dangerous than Ron is." line pretty much lets the cat out fo the bag. I think Hermione is going to have to reconsider a lot of things but I can see her returning to a close friendship with Harry, too. It looks like Harry's going to build a much stronger friendship with Neville than he had before and that's all to the good. Ron, on the other hand, is going to have a lot to think about (Harry certainly gave him more) and then to do before Harry will trust him again.

Looking at the opposition, Draco is most certainly making his position exceedingly obvious, and getting embarrassed every time. I rather suspect that Blaise, despite being far more cunning, is going to end up either highly embarrassed or dead before all is said and done. I can't feel too sorry for Snape, it takes some black work to create a horcrux and that he was careless enough to leave it where Tommy-boy could get it is his problem; somehow I don't see him outlasting Tommy-boy by much if at all.

ALbus' thoughts show that he's still got that irrational hang up on blood purity, even if in not as virulent a for as Tom's minions or their unmarked supporters; I suspect that's going to cost him in the long run.

Excellent work as always! I have to agree with a comment you made before Bob, killing Voldie has been over done. I hope you can manage to make this story work based on the relationships involved. Personally I think it would be great.

Wonderful chapter! Makes me all worried about poor Cynthia Creevey, and the poor Slytherin girls--I hope they can be helped.
And most especially I'm happy that Harry is starting to have friends again--Ginny most importantly.
Thanks for the chapter!

Following in the vein of WoW videos, here is a fan favorite on... Well... Leeeeerooooy Jenkins! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zll_jAKvarw (I couldn't get the URL thing to work so... that's the best I could do.)

Anywho... Great chapter, frankly I'd forgotten about this story until I saw the update. I think that Hank visiting Hogwarts would have been awesome... Who wouldn't want a big blue furball swinging through the halls reciting Shakespeare

I also like the touch of giving Voldemort a stick for leverage where Snape is concerned. it is an interesting angle that I've not seen too many times.

This is a good chapter. I really like the by play between Harry and his friends that he is talking to. Of course Harry is again the center of attention through no fault of his own except right now he still isn't sure he wants to help people that write him off. I can see he is starting to reach out to his friends. I'm glad he explained himself to Neville. It is great that Neville wants to join Harry in his exercise regemine. That was a good step in the right direction. I'm glad he didn't chase Ginny away. They have a long way to go but at least he is responding to her in a way. I felt sorry for Hermione. She is starting to feel unnecessary to Harry. She really feels that he is her best friend. She doesn't want to lose him. I'm sorry he can't start to forgive Dumbledore but Dumbledore really messed up majorly. That is an ongoing problem that hopefully time will solve. I'm glad Harry reached out to Ron and that Ron was honest with Harry about what and why he felt some of the things he did. That helped. That and his confession that Rita got him drunk on Fire Whiskey to get him to say as much as possible about Harry. Harry is right though. He and Ron will probably never return to the level of friendship and trust that they once had. I look forward to where you are going with this story. Thanks for writing. I appreciate everything you write. Take your time. I also like the short stories you have been putting out. Those are fun. pms

I dont think I like this chapter much. Harry did an almost 180. He became approachable/soft in an instant.

Heh, always knew Snape was a major git. Really enjoying this crossover, particularly Scott. He's always been a favourite :d

Considering you started this by not being prepared, I'll end this review with... "This isn't over!"

Hurrah, a Mutant Storm update! What a fantastic chapter, lots of character stuff, Harry starting to make friends with people again, Horcruxes (like the SnapeHorcrux plot btw), Malfoy getting smacked down...I'm wondering if Voldemort is going to invite Magneto to join up with the Death Eaters, as obviously Xavier wouldn't do it...And your Luna is fantastic, so brilliantly spacey and yet so wise. Anyway, hope to see more soon, of any of your work really, but especially this.

Took me almost five minutes to remember where I'd heard "You are not prepared" before. Good show!

The one fundamental flaw in this story (and there is only one) is the whole "Mum and Dad" thing. It rubs me the wrong way that Harry is calling Jean and Scott his parents, slighting perfectly good adoptive Aunts and Uncles everywhere. Granted, his experiences are pretty unique, but it bothers me. That being said, I'm not even trying to hint that you should change it or anything, just throwing my honest opinion out there for you.

The only technical flaw of this chapter that I spotted is in regards to X-Men canon, and since I'm not a comic book reader, I have no idea where this knowledge came from, but it's true. Wolverine is a very very short man. No way is he taller than 5'6". So having him be a foot and a half taller than Ginny makes her pretty darn short, dunnit?

At any rate, I really enjoyed this chapter. Snape having a Horcrux is something I've never seen before, and I fully expect a mass of authors to immediately steal that idea from you. I loved the Zabini complication, but my favorite part was probably Harry's brief line about Beast reading Shakespeare upside down.

Looking forward to more.

Ordinarily I would agree with you, but here are a few things you'll need to remember.

Harry's an empath, he can feel how Jean and Scott feel about him and that helps reinforce the idea of parents in his mind. Additionally, his aunt and uncle (the Dursleys) left a sour taste in his mouth concerning Aunts and Uncles. Considering how he felt about Vernon and Petunia I think he'd rather call Jean and Scott, Mum and Dad or even just Jean and Scott rather than using aunt and uncle.

Ginny in canon is short, but yeah, we made Logan tall, like he was in the animated series. Besides, if we give Logan a slight boost to 6 feet, and Ginny's barely 5 foot, she's gonna look tiny compared to him.

Hey bob you were havin truble writing this story because of voldamort and trying to kill him of.
in wizards fall and your storys post voldamort
your storys are more about harry and the relaionships around him.
thats what makes your storys the best in harry potter fan fics.
in mutant storm you have aporoched it like you always have in the relashionships that harry has.
i think mutant storm deserves to be finish so it will be up with your great works like wizards fall.sunset and sunrise over britain.
i hope to see more of your storys they are the best.

You don't often see stories featuring horcruxes (horcruces?) for characters other than Voldemort, though there are a few. It's a bit of an odd omission if you think on it. I look forward to seeing where Snape's horcurx leads.

P.S. I love you guys!
