CHAPTER ONE

"Well done Kitty, only a little more training and a little more concentration the next time and you will be able to perform…" But Professor Charles E. Xavier never finished his sentence for he suddenly sensed a presence he never thought he would feel again.

Kitty, the young student he had been talking to, looked at him with questioning eyes.

"Professor?" she asked, but the older man didn't hear her. He was concentrating on the person's mind to be sure that it was really the one he hoped for, the one he hadn't seen for ages, for over one decade in fact.

Kitty asked again. "Uh…Sir?" She waved a hand before the Professor's eyes, but he didn't even blink. He was too well trained to let himself get distracted by anything, when he was concentrating.

And just as suddenly as the Professor had stopped mid sentence, he recovered and awoke with a smile on his face. Astonished about the theirteacher's unusual behavior, all students watched curiously as he slowly made his way to the door.

"Class dismissed!" was all he said when he opened the door and disappeared.

They didn't leave though. Dying of curiosity they tried to follow the Professor.

When Bobby Drake, one of the mansions prefects and X-Man for over one year now, came along, he ushered all the curious students away.

"What the hell are you lot doing outside the classroom?" he asked, putting his hands on his hips, staring at them with his angriest face.

"The Professor!" one of the youngest students stuttered and pointed at the now far away man, steadily rolling further away.

Bobby turned and gestured the class to return to their room. "I'll find out what's going on, and you'll stay where you're supposed to be now, until I tell you something else!"

Bobby jogged part of the way and shouted: "Professor, wait!" But Professor Xavier didn't stop, not even turned to look at who was shouting after him.

Just when Bobby reached him, Charles had opened the door for a young woman.

She just stood there holding a bag in her hand and stared at the man in the wheelchair in front of her.

"Ahem, Professor!" Bobby tried once more, but still no answer. He had no idea what was going on but Bobby got the clear impression that the Professor was not going to answer anyone's questions right now. He started to leave the two of them alone knowing that this was none of his business when he heard a loud thud. He spun around, found the bag dropped onto the doorstep and the woman standing smiling in front of his old Professor and what he saw next changed his picture of the calm, controlled man forever.

The young woman, Bobby guessed she was his age, maybe a bit older, bowed down and took the Professors face in her hands and placed a soft kiss on his lips. They parted briefly before Professor Xavier smiled and captured her lips once more and kissed her more passionately

Bobby opened his mouth and closed it over and over again, not believing his eyes.
