Ghost Story

A/N :I've never written a x-over before but I was watching the movie network and happened to see one of my favorite movies from a few years ago on and this was the result. Anyone who's read my other stories knows the couples I use so now on with the disclaimer.
Disclaimer: If I owned anything to do with any of these characters living or dead I wouldn't work where I do.
Chapter 1
The dream was the same; always the same. It started off pleasantly enough as two young friends were sliding down a steep snow covered hill while they're fathers talked amiably as they looked on. As the sun began to set the fathers called the boys to come home.
"All right boys, time to go in, it's getting dark!" said the first.
"Yeah, come on Charles. If you catch cold I'll catch hell from your mother!" called the elder Xavier noticing how they're breath was steaming more and more in the chill winter air.
As Charles and his friend trudged towards their fathers they turned and smiling at each other screamed "ONE MORE TIME !" to each other and set off down the hill faster and farther than they had all day. When they were done they turned to see their fathers running towards them with fear in their eyes. Before they even had a chance to wonder at this a loud CRACK answered all their questions right before they plunged through the ice covering the shallow river at the bottom of the hill. Charles was only under for a few seconds before his father reached him and as he lay on the bank covered in his fathers overcoat he turned to see his father plunge back through the cold water calling for his sons friend.
"Ca . . ."
The dream went white as Professor Charles Xavier woke covered in enough sweat to almost believe he had just been pulled from the river all over again. Placing a hand to his brow he looked around the room as his breathing returned to normal. He was just about to attempt another bout of sleep when he noticed the flashing light on the bedside table alerted him that a new mutant had been detected. Opening the laptop computer kept beside his bedside for just this purpose he noticed that it wasn't just one signature but two detected and that they were both in Pleasant Valley.
"Looks like I'm going home again." he said to himself as he prepared to summon the team to his study. "At least it was nearly time for the early morning training session, anyway."
A/N: sorry for the shortness but I hope to have the next chapter up soon so Review damn it review!
