Ana, Charles, Erik and the two CIA agents made their way back to the hotel they left Raven at which was funnily enough the same hotel Erik was staying at. Ana waited in the lobby with Raven and the CIA agents while Charles went upstairs with Erik.

"So who is Mr. Tall, dark, and handsome?" Raven asked

"Interestingly enough it is my brother Erik. He was going after Shaw at the same time we were and was saved from drowning by Charles." Ana replied

"He's your brother? Wow I was not expecting that." Raven exclaimed

"He looks more like mama then he did when we were younger, but he's as tall as papa was if not taller." Ana said with a far off look

"Are you ready ladies?" Erik had managed to sneak up on them while they were talking.

"Oh, Erik. You startled me. This is Raven Charles' sister and my best friend." Ana told him gesturing to Raven, "And yes we are ready to go. Where is Charles?"

"He is at the car with the two agents and asked me to collect you two." He replied offering arms to both girls

It was a tight squeeze in the car with six people but they managed it by putting the two agents upfront with Raven and Ana in the back between her two boys. On the way to the airport Ana and Charles held a mental conversation.

"Would you like to talk with your brother on the plane or afterwards at the agency?"

"Back at the agency would probably be best, so that the four of us can talk in peace. I am getting tired of MacTaggert butting her nose into all of our business." Ana replied

"I know but there is not much we can do about her for now. Hopefully soon we can be done with this business and start working on our wedding."

"I agree but I am still working on the wedding. Raven packed all of the books that we had started putting together so far so that we can continue working."

"If you two lovebird could get out of each other's heads for a minute you would realize that we are at the airport." Raven said with a grin as the two jumped

"Thank you Raven." Ana said with a hand to her chest, "Are you trying to give us heart attacks?"

"Not really I just love interrupting your mental conversations in favor of actually being involved in conversations." She said with a grin

"Raven can you get out a couple of the wedding books to look over during the flight?" Ana asked

"Sure thing Ana." She called from the trunk

They made their way on to the plane and settled in for the flight. Ana and Raven sat next to each other discussing the wedding while Charles and Erik started to get to know one another. The two agents were sitting together closer to the front of the plane. When the plane landed they loaded a car up with the luggage and head toward the CIA facility they were originally supposed to go to.

"Welcome to my facility. My mission has been to investigate the application of paranormal powers for military defense." Said the agent in black

"Or offence." Erik injected

"This guy Shaw, Schmidt, whatever you want to call him he's working with the Russians. We might need your help to stop him."

"Marvalous. We are to be the CIA's new mutant division, yes?" Charles asked

"Something like that." Said the agent in black

They had a short tour ending in a lab with a copy of a jet hanging from the ceiling. There was a dark haired boy with a lab coat standing under it.

"It's supersonic. The most advanced plane ever built. You should see it in real life. It's incredible." The boy said

"Hank these are the special new recruits I was telling you about. This is Hank McCoy one of our most talented young researchers." Said the agent in black

"How wonderful another mutant already here." Charles said walking forward and shaking Hank's hand, "Why didn't you say?"

"Say what?" said the agent in black

"Because you don't know." Charles said turning back to Hank, "I am so, so terribly sorry."

"Hank?"

"You didn't ask, so I didn't tell." Hank replied looking away from his boss

"So your mutation is what your super smart?" Raven asked walking forward to stand with Charles

"I'll say. Hank here graduated from Harvard at the age of fifteen." Charles said with pride in his voice

"I wish that's all it was." Hank muttered

"You're among friends now Hank. You can show off." Charles told him

Hank nervously nodded then proceeded to take off his shoes and socks revealing feet that looked like human hands. Charles chuckled then said, "Splendid." While Raven smiled brilliantly at Hank. He smiled back at Raven and preformed a flip that had his feet clinging to the copy of the jet hanging above their heads.

"You're amazing." Raven told him walking closer to him

"Really?" Hank asked

Raven just smiled at him and stood back to allow him to flip back to the ground.

"Raven if you want to stay here and get to know Hank, then Charles, Erik and I are going to go have a long overdue conversation." Ana said, "Agents I would appreciate if you would leave us alone unless there is a dire emergency as this is family business and doesn't involve either of you."

Ana dragged both Charles and Erik to an empty conference room they had passed on their way to the labs. Ana settled at the head of the table with the boys on either side of her.

"What did you want to talk about Ana?" Erik asked

"Our lives from the time we were separated in the camps to now." She said

"Does he have to be in here for this conversation?" Erik asked gesturing to Charles

"He doesn't but I would prefer to have him here as he is my fiancée and he will soon be your brother."

"Fine. What do you want to know?" Erik asked

"What happened to you after the war ended? Where did you go?" Ana asked grabbing his hand

"When the soldiers came they took me from our cell and transported me to a hospital where I was treated for all the same things you were likely treated for. After I was discharged I was sent to an orphanage in Germany, but I ran away before a week was out. I made my way back home and grabbed everything from the hidden storage room papa built. After that I spent most of my time looking for clues about where you were and looking for Schmidt. Over the years I have tracked down and killed anyone who had a hand in the torture that you and I experienced except Schmidt. Last night I was within two feet of him for the first time in eighteen years, but he had friends like us that I wasn't expecting. I was thrown off the boat and the rest you know." Erik told them, "What happened to you?"

"When we were separated I was sent to a camp closer to the borders of Russia and was held in isolation under Schmidt's orders. The first person I saw for a month was the soldier that carried me out of my room. Like you I was taken to a hospital and sent to an orphanage, and because there were so many of us I was sent to a different orphanage in London. I was adopted by a rich older widow that had lost her husband and two sons in the war. She died two years later from severe phenomena leaving me everything that she had. I continued in school and ended up being one of the few females accepted into Oxford." Ana said with a small smile, "It was there that I met Charles two years after I started; he approached me in a bar and I told him that if he wanted to seduce me he was going to have to do a better job. Over the next two years we grew closer and just last week he asked me to marry him. We were approached by agent MacTaggert to help her explain to the CIA director about mutant and that led us to being in Miami and finding you."

"I am happy to have found you Ana. I have missed you for the last eighteen years, but I don't know if I can stay and play by CIA rules. I have been on my own for so long…"

"Erik, I won't insist that you stay; I wish you would, but even when we were younger once you set your mind to something no one could stop you. Just please promise me that you will leave me with someway of contacting you, and that you come back for the wedding."

"If I do leave, I promise you will know where I am at all times and of course I will be there for your wedding. Who else will give you away at the alter?" Erik asked pulling Ana into a comforting embrace

At some point during their stories Charles had left the two siblings alone without either one noticing. Erik kept Ana in his arms as she broke down in tears one more time and when her tears has stopped he picked her up and carried her to the room where Charles and Raven were sitting with Hank.

"She fell asleep is there a room that we can put her in?" Erik asked Charles quietly

"Yes. They assigned rooms for us. Come with me I'll show you." Charles said standing

Charles took them down a hallway and opened the first door on the right.

"This is Ana and my room. Yours is directly across the hall." Charles told Erik as he lay Ana on the bed.

Charles sat on the bed next to Ana and brushed her hair out of her face before kissing her softly and going back to the rec room.


Ana woke the next morning curled into Charles' arms. For once she was the first one awake and decided to take advantage of that fact. Moving slowly as to not jostle the bed Ana slid across Charles until she was straddling him. Leaning forward she pressed a soft kiss to his lips while unbuttoning his pajama top to slid her hands down his toned chest. She was startled when she was suddenly flipped and Charles was leaning over her kissing her neck and down her chest he moved back up and kissed her lips plunging his tongue into her mouth to explore once again.

Ana reached up and pushed his shirt of his shoulders and down to the floor while he unhooked the back of her nightgown and pulled it off her. Pushing her into the bed he kissed his way down her body as she tangled her hands in his hair trying to pull him back up for another kiss. She wrapped her legs around his waist as he began to thrust inside of her and soon they were both crying out in ecstasy. Charles collapsed on top of her after climaxing then slid to the side pulling her to rest on his chest.

"Good morning love." He whispered kissing her hair

"Good morning. I've missed this." Ana sighed

"As have I, but things have been so chaotic this week and I don't think it will calm down for a while. I caught Erik leaving last night and tried to convince him to stay, but I don't know if I succeeded."

"If he left then there should be a note in his room telling me where he is going and how to contact him. I made him promise last night when we were talking; he also promised to come back for our wedding." Ana told him, "Should we get up and see what mischief Raven managed to get into during the night?"

"I suppose we should." Charles sighed, "We also have a meeting with the head agent here to discuss some of Hank's projects and our powers."

"That sounds interesting."
