RECAP:

"We didn't get a chance to check the messages on the machine," Rukia replied back and she turned around to head back in when she mentioned to come in. She spoke as she headed to the Kitchen, "Do want anything to drink or eat?"

For the most part, most of Xavier's group politely said no while Xavier and Kitty said yes that they would like a glass of cold water.

In the kitchen, Rukia approached Ichigo and told him who was at the door. As Ichigo finally finished mopping up the water that was on the floor from earlier and went to company that was waiting the living room for him. Upon entering the room, Ichigo greeted Orihime first and then turned his full attention to the other five guests.


Chapter 3: Explanations

Kurosaki Residence- Living Room

Rukia came back to the living room with the glasses of ice cold water and set it down before Xavier and Kitty who asked for it.

"Now, what was it that you needed to speak about with Ichigo?"

The group of six (which includes Orihime Inoue) got settled down on the living room couch. When the gruff man with wolfish looks opened his mouth and said, "Kid. This is Charles Xavier. He runs school in Westchester that you might be interested in."

Orihime looked between the two groups and then laughed nervously and said, "…Well, I guess I better get going."

The man in the wheelchair said to her calmly, "Ms. Inoue. This offer also pertains to you too."

This stopped Orihime in her tracks as she pointed to her herself to make sure that she heard him right. Xavier nodded 'yes' to her. Then, she sat down on the armchair near Ichigo.

Ichigo studied the five foreign visitors carefully. But wondered, what is the name of this school that the gruff man was talking about and who exactly were they? So, to fulfill his own curiosity and Ichigo asked in English, "Who are you, guys exactly?"

"My names Logan. And this Xavier Charles," Introduced Logan. He continued, "Pryde Katherine," The said person pouted a bit at Logan who called her by her full name.

Logan continued regardless and introduced the last two people, "Nightingale Christian and Wagner Kurt," The man with wolfish looks pointed from left to right to each person as he said their names.

"Xavier, here, runs a school for gifted children in New York and-"

"And so what," Ichigo interrupted rudely as he crossing his arms.

Logan sighed and replied quite bluntly, "-IF you let me finish. Kurosaki, It has come to our attention that both you and Inoue are mutants."

"M-mutants?" asked Orihime confused. And Ichigo on the other hand made a face upon hearing the word 'mutant' and not liking the sound of it but also trying to remember where he hear that word before.

Rukia Kuchiki stood up quickly in surprise and anger on what Logan said to Ichigo and Orihime. And she started to say, "Hey! You've come to pick a fight-," But before Rukia finished her sentence Xavier, who made a mental note of Miss Kuchiki's reaction to the word mutant- said in order to calm her temper down, "Nothing of that sort, Miss. But please, let me explain in further detail of what mutant DNA is?"

Rukia, who decided to calm down and listen to the professor on what a 'mutant' is.

Charles took a deep breath and began his speech that he said many times even with different versions, "A mutant is a human born with an particular type of gene of which we call the X-gene. The X-Gene that causes their bodies to develop abilities that regular humans cannot acquire, for example self-propelled flight, telekinesis and anything in-between. Also, there can be variations of an particular type X-Gene within a family, such as the ability to control metal. Now, I would also like to extend an invitation to the school that I run in New York for mutants sp specificity designed to help mutants understand and control their own abilities because some mutants cannot control their powers or have very little control over them."

Looking upon Ichigo and Orihime's faces Xavier observed a look of uncertainty and a little confusion and the other with some excitement and worry. Orihime asked shyly, "Ano… Can I think about it first before I make a decision?"

"Certainly, Miss Inoue," Charles Xavier replied. Then he turned his attention to Ichigo for his answer. Ichigo answered thoughtfully, "I really don't want to leave my friends and family behind. And also how-"

Ichigo's sentence was interrupted by a loud ring. Christian picked up her cellphone and looked at the number then she said, "Please, excuse me."

She went into a corner of the living room to obviously wanting to make the phone conversation private. Christian answered in English, "Hello. Who is- Huh? Wanda?! What happened?"

"What…!" Christian muttered in disbelief. Then she asked quickly, "W-Wh-Where? Where did you see her?"

Her face twisted from relief to confusion in mere seconds and Christian answered back to her friend, Wanda Maxinoff- a mutant with reality warping abilities, "When?"

"Thanks. By the way... Can you tell me about this in more detail when I get back?" She asked Wanda with a smile on her face.

More words were shared between the two as she responded with a 'huh'.

"Thanks and bye," Then she ended the call and closed her phone and return back to the living room couch.

Kitty gave Christian a look that basically said 'What happened?'

Christian mouthed to Kitty 'I'll tell you later' and Kitty understood her message then nodded.

Xavier mentioned for Ichigo to continue his sentence, "Excuse me. But how do you know that I'm a mutant and not someone else?"

"The reason I know is-" , as Charles Xavier was about to answer Ichigo's question, a very loud roar hung throughout the area. Rukia who took out her cellphone and saw three blinking dots on it. She would gone to slay the three hollows with Ichigo in tow but Ichigo's and Orihime's 'visitors' are present and didn't wanted to cause any suspicions. But hopefully there were other on duty shinigamis patrolling the area.
