Note: She strongly suggest reading the previous stories in her Earth Arc series just so you know what's going on. But, if you don't want to do that, here's a really short summary. A new woman, Anne, joins the team, with powers that allow her to speak to trees. When Generation X visits the X-Men, she discovers she can communicate with Penance, who consequently joins the team. Gambit becomes her mentor and best friend, and he begins the process of healing her spirit.
