Chapter 7
Disclaimer: Just make this clear, the characters don't belong to me. I'm getting tired of writing this for every single chapter.
Author's note: Thanks for the reviews again. Sorry for the delay in updating, also in cases for the last few chapters. This chapter, I'm going deeper into the plot! I advise the readers should have read from the beginning to get the idea of the story.

In Magneto's lair.
"Erik, we have just heard news from our boy at Xavier's mansion," Mystique came into the room when Erik aka Magneto stood at one corner thinking really hard.
"Ahhh, finally we heard from him. It's been quite a while since we heard any news from him. What is it now that he tells us?" Erik turned around to ask Mystique. He was interested in what his boy had to say.
"This is a really interesting and weird one, Erik. But it may change our plans."
"Yes, tell me. I need to hear it."
"Just this morning, something had gone wrong in the mansion with Rogue and Pyro. They woke up to realize they had switched bodies overnight. He said it was because of a machine gone wrong that Charles was working on."
"Go on. I'll ask questions later."
"Yes, well they could only change back to their original bodies after about two to three weeks when Charles and his friend would have repaired the machine. Meanwhile, they would be trying to adapt living in each other's body."
"This is certainly going to be interesting. So how are they going to live in each other's body for 3 weeks?" Magneto asked. Mystique glared at him. "Sorry, continue."
"I was going to that. Anyway, many interesting things happened today. Rogue accidentally caused a fire because of Pyro's power in the body. We are sure then they are stuck with each other's powers along with the body."
"This is bigger news than I expected. We will have to change our plans. It may be to our advantage and also to our advantage." Magneto turned serious.
"But wouldn't it be easier? We don't have to bring Rogue here like our original plan. Pyro himself will come to us when we call him," Mystique trying to convince Magneto about the advantages.
"Everything has a flaw in it. We have to plan it very carefully. Pyro must get used to his powers. One slight mistake may ruin everything," Magneto said, still worrying about the situation.
"By what I know about Charles, he would help them with all he can to get through these 3 weeks. And from what I heard from the boy, the incident and the experiment with the machine is kept a secret, only known between Charles, that red-haired lady and those two."
"Well, so far is very good for us already. A plan is already forming on my head. But I need to know more about this. For one thing, there's something going on with the experiment. I need to know what he's up to, I know Charles, I've had worked with him for more than 5 years, he's as cunning as me."
"He didn't say anything about Charles. In fact, I bet there are a lot more things he could find out if he would just investigate a little further in that mansion. I'm afraid he's getting a little too comfortable already in the mansion," Mystique this time getting a bit worried already.
"I say he should be as comfortable as possible in the mansion so no one will suspect anything about him, and about us being on the move again. From now on he must be more careful on making any move. But he should still be lifting up his butt to investigate around the mansion for us," Magneto agreeing with Mystique's perception of the boy in their league.
"We can't just lay around down here while waiting for him to give us what's happening in the mansion. He's just a boy, a student in the mansion, he surely can't find out everything. Charles won't tell him everything about the machine. He still knows very little about it," said Mystique insisting they should do something to find out more. By the time she finished saying though, Magneto was already off somewhere else.
"What are you doing? Aren't you supposed to be listening to my advice?" asked Mystique wondering what he was doing.
"For once please stop advising me what to do. I'm the boss here remember? How many times must I tell you that?" replied Magneto.
"I just want us to do the right thing. We want the same thing right? We need Rogue and want to know what Charles is up to, and I'm telling you how to find out."
"Yea, whatever. Listen, I got a plan already. I need you in this. You need to sneak into the mansion and get the files about the machine from Charles office or at least find out something about it. You may enlist the help of the boy in this if he is able to. Also try to find out how the both of them are doing."
"No problem."
Magneto gave an evil chuckle.

A/N: Do you know already who's the boy in Magneto's league? I believe it's kind of obvious, and I think I mentioned his name somewhere. If you still don't know who he is, I'm not going make it clear to you. Just make it as some mysterious guy, it's more exciting right?
