Part III

Friday 13 September 1963

Dr Henry McCoy or Hank as he preferred to be called, was in his office working on an experiment report that was due that afternoon. Hank was over six feet tall, he was very muscular but there was a couple of thing about his appearance that one would notice, he had a almost Neanderthal appearance about him and his hands and feets were larger than normal. Suddenly a knock on the door jarred Hank out of his thoughts.

"Come in," he called out as h prayed that it wasn't his superior because the report was nowhere near finished. The door swang opened and Charles Xavier wheeled himself into Hank's office. "What can I do for you?" Hank asked with a bright smile.

"I'm Charles Xavier and I have a proposition for you," Xavier introduced himself. "I would like it if you would ring me when your work with Brand Corporation is finished," Charles said as he slid a business card over to the young doctor.

"Thankyou," Hank said thoughtfully as he shoved the card into his pocket. "Do you require help out?" He then asked.

"No, I can manage, but thankyou," Charles said, he then managed to manoeuvred out of Hank's cramped office.

Hank took the business card out of his pocket and took a good look at it, on one side there was a phone number and on the other side there was a little note; 'this is a delicate subject, don't mention this to anyone'. He shoved the card back into his pocket and he wondered what exactly that meeting had been about.

Charles Xavier looked out of the window of his car and he watched as the scenery went past. He hoped that Dr McCoy would agree to work with him, he wanted the doctor, no he needed the doctor to work for him.

He had no idea who ran Brand Corporation but he knew that he should not mention mutants inside that building or around and Brand Corporation employees. Whoever runs Brand Corporation is a very powerful and very dangerous person and should be avoided. Charles was hoping that he would never run into that person but he a feeling that he would, sooner than he wanted to and under bad circumstances.
