Hey guys. I´m sorry I didn´t update my story for so long but I had things to do. I´m back now with this very, very short chapter and there is more to come. So please stay tuned and don´t forget to review :)
Moira MacTaggert puts her gun away, still fazed by what she just saw. Saw for the second time after the Hellfire Club in Las Vegas. She was in town to meet with Professor Xavier when she heard the call over the police radio. Though being a CIA agent she couldn´t resist but answer it. She was the first to arrive and didn´t bother to wait for the officers. Never would she have expected to encounter these strange people here.
"Are you alright?" she asks the figure crouching over a blue woman on the floor. No answer. The woman moves, seems to gain consciousness again, and suddenly turns into a normal looking human right in front of Moira´s eyes. She takes a step back, hand on gun.
"Don´t be afraid." Charles stands up and stretches his hand out for Moira to shake it. "I´m Charles Xavier."
"Moira MacTaggert. CIA. What the fuck just happened?"
"I don´t know. But what I do know is that Victoria is gone." He looks to the floor, panic rising.
"She´ll be fine until we find her." Raven managed to stand up to and takes Charles in his arms.
"Sorry to interrupt but, those people… those…"
"Mutants?"
"Is that what you call them?"
"Yes."
"And is she, I mean…" she gives Raven an anxious look.
"Yes. We are mutants, too."
"Oh. You…you too?"
"Yes. What are you doing here?"
"I overheard the police radio. I heard someone from this place called for the police. Since I was looking for you anyways…"
"Why where you looking for me?"
"I encountered this man once before, saw what he and his people could do. Since no one believed me I wanted to find you, for you seem to be an expert in the field of mutations."
"I see."
At that moment they hear a man calling. They all go outside to find a police officer has just arrived.
"Thanks for your effort, but this is a CIA matter now." Moira says in an official voice flipping her ID at him. The officer scratches his head and thinks for a moment, then nods to them and leaves silently.
"Victoria must have called the police before she entered the library." Charles states absently, "How the hell are we going to find her?"
Raven starts crying. "What will they do to her?"
They stand there in the hallway, Charles holding the sobbing Raven and Moira wondering what she got herself into. Neither of them knows what to do or say.
"I should take you to the CIA."
Charles nods and pulls the door closed behind them.
