Warren Worrthington III was sitting in the X-Mansion reading. He was your average pretty boy. He had blonde wavy hair, blue eyes and was around 6' tall. The only thing that made him any different from a normal individual was the fact he had giant wings sprouting from his shoulder blades. Once he had been normal, but those days were long gone. He so much wished to be like all other humans but one thing held him back; his ability to fly. Soaring through the air like an eagle was better than any exciting activity imaginable.

He was sitting in the main hall of the mansion when the door burst open. Standing in the door way was none other than Magneto along with Beast.

Warren uttered a cry of surprise. He scrambled out of the chair he was seated in and ran towards Professor Xs office.

"Come now Angel," said Magneto calling Warren by the mutant codename he had chosen, "There's no need to run off like that." Magneto lifted the railing right off the staircase. He wrapped it around Angel's body as if it were a pipe cleaner being placed about a plastic bag.

Just at that moment Professor X came out of his office in his wheel chair being pushed by Piotr Rasputin, otherwise known as Colossus.

"Magneto release my X-Man and explain what you are doing in my mansion."

"Yes, I think now would be a good time to explain exactly what I am doing here."

"So let me get this straight," asked Scott Summers, "You want to help us stop someone from doing evil?"

"Why does everyone always assume that I am evil," muttered Magneto. "I am not evil in any way, I just have a different way of looking at the differences between mutants and humanity than the X-Men do. With these jewels someone will be able to destroy countries, in the process killing many humans but also innocent mutants. I have by no means any wishes for fellow mutants to be harmed."

"I think we should trust Eric," thought Professor Xavier into the minds of all those present in the room. "He may very well be able to help us discover who is behind these jewel thefts. I know Eric better than any of you do, so in this I trust him."

"I don't like it," snarled Logan. "But if you say he's trustworthy Charlie, I believe you."

"Thank you Charles, Wolverine, now if you don't mind I will be leaving you to summon the rest of the brotherhood." With that, Magneto flew out of the mansion.
"Now hold on a second Magneto," shouted Colossus after him, "what makes you think that they've given you the all clear on this."

"I think I've made myself clear Piotr," lectured Professor X. "Eric is to be trusted. As for his brotherhood of mutants, they are to be trusted as well but not very much mind you."

Professor X left the room leaving a very bewildered group of X-men.
