Charles

The woman was a good agent, there was no doubt about that. My access to her memories and mind had proved that. Now, as she cast a glance around our temporary apartment, I had to resist the urge to peek into her mind again. I decided to break the ice by saying something. "I'm sorry for last night, love. I was a tiny bit more drunk than I usually let myself get. I hope you weren't too uncomfortable?" The woman, Moira, she'd said, smiled at me. "No, it's alright." "So, what did you want to talk to me about?" I asked, not attempting to downplay my curiosity. I'd read her mind the night before, but had yet to hear it from her. And, in any case, she couldn't be allowed to know about my 'sixth sense'. So, for the next hour, Moira recounted in detail the events she had witnessed at the Hellfire Club, while I listened with growing awe.

Finally, I spoke. "So, you want me to try and convince your superiors that mutants exist and that Shaw is a real danger, yes love?" I summed up, while thanking God that Raven was out shopping. She wouldn't have stopped interrupting and asking questions. Moira nodded, from across me. "They won't believe, there's no point in even trying. But... you do believe me, professor, don't you?" She asked, a little hesitant. I smiled with my patent charm. "Agent McTaggert, what you just described is what I study. I think it's safe to say that I believe you," I told her gently. The agent blushed slightly and nodded before getting up to leave. I had to fight my tendency to flirt and followed her to the door. "Expect me at the CIA headquarters in two days, please," I informed her. Moira nodded and left.


"Charles! Wake up! CHARLES!" I groaned as I lifted my head to face my sister. "What is it?" I asked. "You fell asleep working on your computer," she told me, rolling her eyes. "Come on, you've finished the presentation, you can get some rest now. You haven't slept in two days." With that, Raven managed to stand me, supporting me by my shoulders and put me to bed. The last thought I had before falling asleep again was, 'I hope this helps Moira.'


Yeah, I know this chapter isn't very interesting; sorry. The next chapter, Charles and Raven will both reveal their mutations to the Broad of Directors of the CIA.
