-------
The composed blonde seated herself on the stone bench and watched the students playing basketball. One boy vaulted
an impossible height, sailing over the others heads, resulting in a resounding cry being sent up.
"Hey! No powers!"
"It's been quite some time since you were here, Marita."
She looked at Charles, smiling faintly. "The work..."
"I understand."
He did. She knew it. She didn't need her abilities to know, she just did. Xavier always understood.
That was why, in the end, the prodigal student returned...
No matter what she did, what the work demanded of her – Charles understood.
And forgave.
