"Leslie," she replied, then ran down the road and faded into the abyss. I smiled as she went, occasionally stopping to quickly glance back at me.
"Leslie," I repeated to myself. "Leslie." I awoke to my small room and quickly exited to find Magneto waiting for me.
"Did you do it?" he asked eagerly.
"Patience," I replied. "There was...a setback."
"What kind of setback? Like she's about to die or of setback or she's just headstrong sort of setback?" he inquired as though I were a simpleton.
"Laura, a psychic, showed up," I replied with slight annoyance.
"Crap!" he shouted. "How did she know? What was she doing there?"
"She was trying to relieve her of her powers," I enlightened him. His fuse took a hard blow and metals were sent everywhere as I ducked for cover.
"Does she know how to do it?" Magneto questioned, his temper coming back down.
"I don't know, I stopped her midway. And now..." I paused to make sure Magneto was calm. "The girl has both powers."
"What?" he asked happily. "Both?" I nodded. "Well, why didn't you say so my boy? This is wonderful news! This girl has a portion of a psychic's power! We could use her!"
"So getting her pregnant is out the window?" I asked, hoping he'd say yes.
"Of course not, Johnny! But for now," he continued. "We have to make sure she remains alive."
"But she doesn't have to get pregnant now?" I questioned to be sure.
"Blast it! No!" Magneto shouted.
"Then I think I can have her here quite soon. I'm borrowing the car," I told him as I picked up the keys and went after Leslie.
