The Doctor seemed to have enjoyed the breakfast. And from what Amy could notice, everybody seemed to like him.

The man named Erik seemed to look a little weary of The Doctor, though. He looked almost protective whenever Charles and The Doctor started talking.

And yet, this man looked familiar. In fact, all the people here did.

"A mutation?" The Doctor asked. "Humans; the never ending possibility!"

Mutation?

"We're not humans. We're mutants." Erik growled.

Mutants?

Amy turned her head to look at Raven. She remembered seeing the blonde girl just when she came out of the TARDIS, Raven had been blue.

"Um, Doctor," She said. "I need to talk to you."

"Amy, can it wait? I'm in the middle of a conversation with-"

"Doctor, this is very important." Amy snapped.

"Um, okay." The Doctor said, following Amy out of the kitchen. Rory soon mumbled an excuse about checking on his wife before following the Doctor.

Amy walked until she was certain nobody could overhear the conversation.

"Doctor, these people aren't real," Amy said. "They're from a comic book, how can they be here?"

"A comic book?" The Doctor asked.

"Yeah, I used to read the comics when I was little. "

Rory's jaw dropped. "I remember reading them too! It was called X-men."

"That blonde girl, she's Mystique. And we knew Charles and Raven all those years ago, when they were little…" Amy said. "What's going on?"

"I don't know yet." The Doctor said. "But I'm working on it. So, Charles Xavier and company are not real in your world. But apparently they're real in some version of our reality or else we wouldn't be able to have made contact with them in the first place."

Amy frowned. "So are you saying they're real?"

"Well, maybe not real to you, but they are real in a way. I suppose that you could say you two aren't real in their universe." The Doctor looked at the ceiling. "Ah, alternate universes! I love alternate universes. They always make you grateful for the world you live in. Okay, even if we don't know why they're here, we can keep them on their timeline. Now, you both read the comics, what are they destined to do?"

"Um, well," Rory said. "They go to Cuba to meet this man named Shaw, and then-"

"And then they kill Shaw." Amy said.

"Yeah, and then Erik-"

"And then Erik gives up his vendetta against humanity," Amy said, giving Rory a meaningful glance.

Rory raised his eyebrow. "Uh, Amy-"

"Rory, we can talk later." Amy interrupted. "Right now we need to tell the Doctor what he needs to know."

"But, Amy-"

"No, really. We can talk about it later. I know what's going on, Rory. You have to trust me." Amy hissed in Rory's ear.

Rory made no response save for a slow head nod.

The Doctor didn't seem to notice the exchange between Amy and Rory and continued babbling. "Okay, so! We need to make sure that the timeline is going on as smooth as it did in the comic books. Exactly how much time do we have before they go to Cuba?"

"Counting today, we've got three days." Amy said.

"So, three days to change our two main characters for the better.." The Doctor said with a smirk. "What is it, exactly that gives this all a happy ending?"

Rory turned to Amy, looking confused.

"Ah, well Erik, um. Erik and Charles sort of….. come to an… agreement of sorts." Amy stuttered.

"Yes, and what is this agreement?" The Doctor asked.

"Well, Erik starts to understand normal humans and Charles gives up some of his, um, idealistic …ideals" She muttered.

The Doctor grinned. "Well, we'd better get started, then." He winked and walked off to the mutants.

"Okay, Amy. What are you trying to do?" Rory demanded.

"Pssh, relax. Don't you just wish that Charles and Erik didn't have that falling out? We can fix that, Rory."

Rory rolled his eyes. "Amy, we don't know what's going on here and you're tampering with time. Do you know what that can do?"

"I know what it can do but I don't know what it will do." Amy said.

"It's a fixed point in time!" Rory snapped.

"In a comic book," Amy retorted.

Rory sighed. "Yes, but it might destroy the characters."

Amy turned around to see the Doctor laughing with the mutants. "But it could save them. Just trust me on this. We could fix them, Rory."

He was quiet.

"Rory?"

"Okay, but if anything bad happens, I'm telling the Doctor everything."

She hugged him. "Thank you."
