Westchester, New York—
Victor's point of view—
I know I've only been here at the school for a few measly hours but I needed to leave. I hated myself right now. I wish I had the guts that my own brother had. He always had the guts to do something that I was to chicken shit to do.
So I wrote Jimmy a letter. I decided to disappear from the school today. I didn't need this shit. Every little thing around me was making me feel crazy.
The letter I wrote said,
"To my little brother Jimmy,
By the time you get this letter I'll be long gone. I'll be as far away as possible. I'm leaving the school and heading back up to Canada. It will not be our family home in Alberta, but it will be the same country. I'm leaving this here in your room so you would find it. I'm so sorry for leaving you three like this but I have too. Everything there makes me feel like I don't belong. Like I'm going to be treated like when we were little and keeping to ourselves. I love and will miss you, Harry and Hermione. Have a good loving life with your kids Jimmy. And remember to be your annoying happy self when you pick on someone there.
Be safe Jimmy. I'll call you when I get settled into my new home. And know that when you know where I am you can come and visit me anytime you want. Just call ahead.
Love,
Victor.
P.S. And tell Hermione that I love her because I'm taking up her constant nagging advice and becoming a writer. That I'll be using some of her stories too."
I left this in Jimmy's room on his bed. It was the best place I could think of that he would be able to find it. He and no one else should read it. Well maybe Harry and Hermione should read it. But Jimmy should be the only one.
No one needed me here at the school. I'm just in the way of everything that was going on. I leave as soon as an unconscious Jimmy comes floating in. I see that Harry had a panicked look in his emerald green eyes. I knew that he was worried about his father. I knew what he was going through right now. Because when I was his age I worried about my parents a lot.
I soon left. I just ran. I ran as fast as I could. I ran as far as I could. I didn't go back to magneto because I promised Mia. I just ran. Running made me forget everything around me.
I stopped for a couple of moments to take in the forest around me. I love trees and nature. It calms me. That's why I met up with Mia the way I did.
I started to run again. I finally made it to the city. I headed to the train station. I bought a ticket to Faro, Yukon, Canada.
As I wait for the train I see that on the news was on the television that there was a fight on liberty island. I saw Jimmy, Mia, Harry and their team of X-men fighting magneto. The broadcast almost made me go there and help them.
But soon my train was called out on the PA system. I boarded my car and sat. I was antsy as hell. I was going to another coast and country. And I'm also leaving the only family that was alive and breathing that I knew of.
I closed my eyes and silently prayed to whatever god or goddess that was listening to me for them to protect my brother, nephew and niece.
And for the life of me I didn't care if the god or goddess was Greek, Norse, Roman, Egyptian, Jewish, or Christian. I just prayed with all my might.
Everything was wrong around me. It was like it was my world was crumbling down around me. I kept my eyes closed but all I saw was what was happening on liberty island. I was really worried about Jimmy, Harry and Hermione.
I soon feel the train start to move. I opened my eyes I looked out the window. The train was picking up speed. All the things outside began to look blurry. I took a deep breath. I silently counted in French. I tried to calm down. But it was hard seeing that I was in a train car and not the forest.
"This is going to be a long trip to Yukon." I muttered to myself
I think that this is for the best. I don't need magneto in my head and my family and their team don't need me damaging everything in the school.
I decided to write all the stories that Hermione told me. I also wrote down all the stories from my childhood. I'm going to be writing a book. This will be my salvation.
Jean's point of view—
I found the professor at his Cerebro desk unconscious. I ran as fast as I could to him and quickly took him to the med bay as fast as I could. I placed the professor on the table and just hooked him up to the machines and iv when Scott, Storm and Harry brought, by hovering or levitation charms, in an unconscious Uncle James. Harry sat uncle James on a table and Hermione started to administer healing potions and spells.
I think that Hermione becoming a certified healer is one of the best thing that the team and school needs. She's always been fascinated by becoming a healer or some type of doctor.
"What the fucken hell happened here? We leave you alone for one hour." I ask
My voice was spitting out each word like I had lived in Canada all my life. I only lived in Canada didn't know how to teach me from the age of 4 or 5 and on.
Harry soon sits down on a chair and starts to panic. He has always had anxiety and panic problems.
"Magneto and his marry band of mutants." Scott said with disgust in his voice
Scott then kicks something on the floor. I can tell that he is flaming mad like he was earlier at Hank.
"They also took Anna with them. We could not get to her in time." Harry said in a small voice with a panic look still in his eyes
Even with my small amount of telepathy I could tell that he was not in his right mind.
"Scott was lucky that Hermione gave him those contacts. Or otherwise there was going to be some sort of disaster." Storm said
I huffed. This was annoying. If Anna didn't run away this wouldn't have happened. I know this is not all Anna's fault but she's the reason Uncle James is on the bed and not punching something.
To clear my mind from everything I went to see what was wrong with Cerebro. I went to the compartment that makes the room work right. I noticed that there was a cylinder type of thing that was not supposed to be in there. I took to see what it is. It's some type of mild poison. I think it was a very very very mild drought of living death. The type of potion that one would throw away.
I put everything back together again when I got the idea to put the helmet on. And putting the helmet on was a bad idea on my part. Because the next thing I knew Scott had pulled the helmet off of my head.
"I know where magneto is going to be." I said as my voice cracked and my body shook
Scott helped me stand up and walked me to the conference room where everyone was. I saw that uncle James had woken up. Hermione also came down. I sat down at the table.
I look around to find that Uncle James's brother had disappeared. Maybe he is running from magneto.
"They're going to library island. They plan to do it tonight with all the Government officials form around the world nearby." I say
With that Harry gave me one of his pepper up potions. That helped me get my energy back up. We had discovered a couple of weeks ago, when Hermione started her training, that mutants can have the same potions as wizards and witches. We then left the room to the blackbird to change into our uniforms. We gave Harry and Hermione a uniform too. I noticed that Uncle James was looking at his uniform weirdly. I knew that he didn't like it one bit.
But it was funny to see him squirm like a little kid in the uniform. I smirked at him. Uncle James has never been the one for tight long sleeves. Tight short sleeve maybe. But not tight long sleeve.
James Logan's point of view—
As we sat in the chairs I was antsy as fuck. The uniforms felt tight. I was squirming around in it as I was getting comfortable in it. I feel Jean's smirk.
"Hey Scotty, why do these suits feel tight? Do you have anything else to wear?" I ask in a growl
I only call him that if I'm irritated or something. Like wolverine nearing the surface.
"Well what do you want, James? Bright and shiny yellow and blue spandex or dark arour wizarding robes?" Scott asked jokingly
Scott turned to me and I mocked a sneer at him. He knew how to push my buttons with a single joke. He out right smirked and let out an evil little chuckle. Scott turns back, flips a couple of switches and takes off. We head to liberty island where magneto is.
The plan to rescue Anna is simple. Get in, fight bad guys, grab Anna, then get back out to the blackbird. See simple. Well, simple for them.
Harry and I will be having a little difficulty fighting with magneto near by. See we have metal skeletons and it's a pain in the ass fighting a man like magneto. And the reason I have a metal skeleton was because on October 1st, three months after I got married to Lily, I got kidnapped by people who hated mutants like me. And I have all of October and November of '77 missing from my memory because of that.
And till October 31st of '81 I was going to a mind healer so I could remember those two months. And still nothing. It was four years of appointment keeping for nothing. I went to appointments with a mind healer when I got to Canada, but nope.
Flashback—
June 1980
"What do you mean hiding? I can't go into hiding. I got mind healing appointments to do." I say
I looked Albus in the eyes. My eyes flashed gold. Albus knew exactly what happened to me. He also knew of my mutation. I just didn't tell Lily yet. If she knew, she would be in danger.
"Are you sure lieutenant?" He asked
"I'm sure as the day I was born." I say
"But still. The prophecy." Albus said
"If Captain Rogers was here right now, he would agree with me. He and Bucky been by my side since the 40's." I say
Steve, Bucky and I were war buddies. Always sticking together.
