Chapter 21:

"Come in Wanda," Storm greeted kindly, opening the mansion doors wide open for the younger woman to enter.

"Thank you," Wanda mumbled; she stepped inside and started to look every which way afraid that something- she didn't know what- would happen.

"The Professor is very happy that you decided to let him help," Storm told her, trying to be reassuring.

"I didn't know what else to do," she said hopelessly.

"Come this way," Storm said, about to place a hand on her shoulder, but she thought better of it. Wanda hesitated for a second. "The Professor is here to help no matter who you are."

Her kind words, combined with her soothing voice, gave Wanda the courage to move and she followed Storm through the mansion. Along the way she saw some of the X-men who whispered among themselves, about her of course. Wanda supposed it couldn't be helped; she was their "enemy" after all.

"Here you are." Storm's voice startled Wanda out of her thoughts. They were standing in front of an office door. "Go right in."

Wanda slowly put her hand on the door knob and turned it. Inside she found the Professor waiting and smiling politely.

"Hello Wanda, it's so good that you could make it," Professor Xavier greeted.

"Ye... yeah, thanks," she murmured.

"Come in, sit down. Would you like something to drink?" he asked kindly. Wanda just shook her head. "Thank you Storm."

Wanda turned around to see that Storm had still been waiting. She smiled warmly at Wanda before leaving. Wanda turned back to the Professor and waited for him to say something; she waited almost a minute.

"Well…" he started. "Would you like to start by telling me about these dreams of yours?"

She nodded once, tightlipped until she finally spoke. "They're… they're terrifying."

The Professor smiled not unkindly. "They're just dreams, they can't hurt you here."

"I know," Wanda told him. "The dreams are different… no, I'm different in them. It's like I'm a different person in them, but I can still tell it's me. I… I do terrible things…"

The Professor looked at the shivering girl gravely. "Like killing your brother?"

"Almost!" she amended quickly.

"I see, is there anything else?"

"In the dreams there's always someone else… in the background. I can't see them, but somehow I know they're making me do the things I do," Wanda confessed.

To the Professor the dreams were sounding graver by the second. He couldn't be sure but they seemed more like visions than dreams.

"Wanda," the Professor began delicately, "Will you let me into your mind-"

"No," she protested right away. "I don't need anyone else in my head."

"Wanda, I promise you I wouldn't ask if I didn't think it would help you. Because of the way the mind works parts of dreams are forgotten once you've awaken. I believe I can recover some of those parts and see who else is in that dream. We can figure out if it's just a normal nightmare or if it's something more," he explained.

"I… I don't know," she wavered; he gave her a reassuring look. "All right, but you won't mess with anything else, will you?"

"Of course not, you have my word," he promised.

He wheeled around his desk so that he was directly facing her. She took a deep breath and nodded for him to continue.

"All right," he whispered as he placed his fingers at her temples, "Close your eyes." They both did so and the Professor concentrated hard until he was able to sift through all her memories and come to the right one.

Once he found it he concentrated even harder to grab it and pull himself in. Chaos is what he found. There were explosions all over the place and many people were scrambling about. At first glance it didn't appear to be a dream or vision, but a memory, because the setting was Egypt just like where the final battle with Apocalypse took place. But no something was different.

"Come forth our horseman, drive these dogs away!" The Professor whirled around to see where the voice came from and got the shock of a lifetime. It was Jean; or rather Jean possessed by Magda, and standing directly behind her was Apocalypse. "No," the Professor murmured.

He turned back around to see his X-men, plus some of the Brotherhood battling four shadowed figures. He couldn't tell who they were. He looked more closely and found that at least two were male, and one other was female and she looked very familiar. "Oh no Wanda!" She became fully visible now as she proceeded to attack her brother just as she had described to Rogue.

Suddenly the Professor felt himself being pulled roughly. The images were fading and when he blinked one last time he opened his eyes and found himself staring at Wanda.

"Well… what is it?" she questioned, shivering.

He didn't answer right away. He wheeled back to his spot behind his desk. Putting his hands together, he brought them up to his chin and let out a tired sigh.

"I believe your dreams aren't dreams, but visions of the future to come," he explained.

"What? No!" Wanda cried out angrily. "As much as I don't like my brother I'd never… I'd never…"

"I know Wanda, I know," he assured her. "I don't believe you're acting of your own free will. Those others in the background-"

"Did you see them? Do you know who they are?" she asked wildly.

"Yes," he began gravely. "I'm afraid it's serious, deadly serious."

"Who?" she asked frantically.

"Apocalypse and Jean," he answered.

"No, how can that be? He's gone. And Jean?" Wanda questioned.

"I don't know how. All I know is Jean has been possessed by an evil priestess. She's under Apocalypse's influence," he explained.

"This is nuts!"

"Indeed it is," he mumbled to himself.

Wanda was putting a couple of books on the shelves of her new room when she heard footsteps behind her.

"So it's true you are moving in?"

Wanda turned around ready to defend herself, but found a friendly face instead.

"Kurt," Wanda greeted politely, and then turned back to her work.

"The Professor told us you vere moving in, he just didn't say vhy," Kurt added.

"Because I feel like being a goody two shoes," she snarked.

Kurt gave her a look that said, "Be serious," and she let out an annoyed sigh. "Fine I'm here because I'm pretty sure something bad is going to happen and I want to be on the right side when that happens."

"So you need our help," Kurt confirmed.

Wanda had been waiting for a smug reply, but instead Kurt's words sounded like an offer to her, not a righteous retort.

"Yeah I guess I do," she answered.

Kurt stepped closer to her and threw and arm around her shoulders. Wanda stiffened quickly at his friendly gesture, but he didn't seem to notice.

"Vell don't you vorry. You're an X-men now. Ve stick together," he announced proudly.

Wanda shrugged off his arm. She shook her head. "I'm not an X-man." She opened her bag and started taking clothes out.

"Yes you are," Kurt argued.

"No I'm not," she retaliated.

"Listen, vhere are you?" Kurt asked suddenly.

Wanda briefly turned around to shoot him a "What, are you stupid look?" and then turned around back to sort through her clothes.

"You're in the X-men mansion," he answered for her.

Wanda snorted. "That doesn't mean anything."

"Surrounded by…" he prompted.

"Geeky X-men," she replied.

"Close enough," Kurt accepted. "And who are you getting help from?"

"The X-men?" she said dryly.

"Guess vhat that makes you… an X-men!" Kurt exclaimed.

"Way to rub it in Kurt," she said dejectedly, as she flopped on her new bed.

Kurt let out a sigh and came to sit next to her. "Hey don't look so sad. There are lots of pluses to being an X-man."

She threw him a suspicious look. "Like what?"

"Umm… vell let's see. Ve always have lots of food around. The place is usually clean. No one here will betray you, you can count on us… and the top reason vhy ve are a great place to be is… ve have a swimming pool!"

"Well isn't that just the icing on the cake." She chuckled.

"Just give it a shot, it vill be tough but once you get used to it it vill be a nice place to live," Kurt assured her.

"I'll take you're word for it."

Well that's it for now. I'll try to update soon.
