Logan grunted while driving the KIA X-car that the Professor has personally designed. It has at the nose a large X-mark which is not really a surprise to him, yet something else surely is when at the sides of the car, his Wolverine claws added some more protection to the front. "Visiting the neighbor the Professor says," grunted the wild mutant. "Did Chuck not wipe their mind each time we use the jet, Ororo?"

Ororo watched the Mansion in the distance increase in size when they closed the distance. The road to the gate of land that belongs to the Mansion looks very invited, on both sides of the road long lines of cherry blossoms trees were in full bloom. "I would not know Logan. Perhaps the Professor did wipe their minds or perhaps something else is here at work."

"What do you mean?" Asked the feral mutant. The man could feel a pressure slowly built up in his mind which suggested to him to turn the car. Still, the mutant ignored these warnings of someone trying to influence him because of his very strong will and experience that the man gained through working with a master telepath.

"My thoughts are that this is actually the first time that I actually see a Mansion so close to Charles School. In fact, I never thought we had neighbors until recently." The Storm Goddess reasoned. "Logan, do you not feel as if we move through a dream which kept us away from reality. That is what I feel right now, us driving towards that Mansion in the distance that stays out of our reach, and slowly fade away from our mind like a dream."

Logan's eyes snapped wide when he glanced at the reflection of Storm through the mirror. The once Weapon X noticed the dazed look that was now on her face as if someone or something was controlling her. "Storm! Snap out of your daze, gather yourself together and focus! You are under a mind control, focus and keep listening to my voice!" Snarled Wolverine to the Storm Goddess and succeeded of snapping her out of the effect.

Coming out of her daze, Ororo brought her hand to her cheek and sighed softly. "Wh...what happened?"

"You was under a mind control effect, Storm. A very powerful one if they managed to influence you so quick, however it is a very harmless one."

"Harmless?" Ororo questioned her companion, confusing still lingering in her head.

"Yes, my first clue came from you. This mind control tried to turn people away from that Mansion with suggestions. If it was you that drives the car you would probably have turned around and returned to Chuck. Lucky that was not the case, as for me. My mind is partly protected because of my Adamantium coated bones and the mind control did not get a hold on me." Logan explained to the Weather Goddesses. Driving the Kia X-men closer to their destination. "We will arrive soon Storm. Stay watchful and hope that they are friendly."

"Do you think that they are mutants or something else?" Ororo said. Logan drove the car closer to the thick wall that surround the Mansion ground until arrived at a large silver gate which was richly made. The bars were decorated with silver oak leafs, and in the center of the gate is a large shield with a hawk which looks like it stared at them. Around the edge of the shield are runes engraved and a quote under the creature. 'The Last Enemy to be Destroyed is Death.'

"A lovely quote," Logan grunted. It was then that the feral mutant wondered how he could let the owners know that they have visitors when there was nothing to call them. Turning to his companion and shrugging his shoulders. "Ehm… yeah, how can tell them that they have visitors without being seen like villains?"

"Perhaps using a phone..." Ororo started, only for the sounds of the gate creaking open and it slowly opened in front of them. "Or not." She finished her sentence while watching the gate that now was wide open. "I think they expect us, Logan."

Logan grunted in agreement before pressing down the pedal. With a roar, the car continued its trek towards the mansion which looks like Xavier's School for Gifted Youngsters in appearance only with the few differences. One of them are the tiles which were in the form of leafs and so were the few windows. "It looks beautiful," Wolverine heard his companion. They traveled down the path until they came to a fountain which held statues of Mythical creatures that range from Centaurs, Fauns, Fairies and Nymphs which all held a vase which poured water out that landed in the pool at their feet. "Almost like a dream, I could sleep here..."

"Focus Storm, we do not know what their intentions are." Logan reasoned while stopping the car at the edge of the fountain. Kicking the door open Logan stepped out and immediately pulled out a cigar. Bringing the tool of death to his lips, Logan prepared to lit the cigar on when a mental voice stopped him cold, her voice icy and colder than the Arctic Ocean.

'You would not stain someone's ground with those foul ashes of your cigar, Mr. Mutant?'

'My name is Logan and I apologize for trying my time to smoke, I … I had a hard time today.' Wolverine returned a mental answer at which laughter ran through his head. Suddenly the mansion door swept open and two adults stand in the doorframe. "Storm?"

Ororo too stepped out of the car, and unlike Logan, she stepped out with grace and moved to the entrance of the Mansion which doors swept open. She climbed the stairs and could see that two adults awaited her. "My apologies for this unexpected visit sir and lady."

"Unexpected is not exactly the word to use here as you were expected fifteen minutes ago and the food threatened to turn cold." Ororo listened to the voice of the women who gazed at her with warm eyes. "My name is Flora and my husband Cygnus Greengrass and I would like that you just call me Flora." The white haired African-American woman could clearly hear the mirth in her voice which was mirrored by Flora's husband.

"My apologies we did not know that we were expected or any way of informing our visit to you. I am a teacher at Xavier's School for Gifted Youngsters and go by the name of Ororo Munroe and my companion is called Logan." Ororo said with a gentle smile.

"Nice meeting you Ms. Munroe and Mr. Logan, if you two would please follow me to the backyard where dinner is waiting for us." Flora turned around with her husband and guided them through the Mansion. Ororo could not believe how wealthy it looks from the inside, large paintings adorned the walls, however, much to her astounding they moved. Storm leaned a bit to Logan and spoke in a soft almost whispering voice.

"Did you see these paintings moving or am I dreaming?"

Logan glanced at the painting who were staring back at them, a smug look in their eyes which did not sit well with him. A few of them even laughed at him before stepping out of the portrait to who knows where. "If this is your dream then I wonder what happened to me," muttered the man. The pair walks through a small, cozy living room or it is small for a Mansion the size of the White House. "But more importantly is the strangeness of this Mansion. Do you think that these moving paintings are an illusion that is brought to life by a telepath or something?"

"No, I do not think that this is an illusion," Ororo said, her hand touched the dark, oaken walls. She returned her hand back to her side and continued following her hosts. "Flora, may I ask something. These paintings, are they part of an illusion or is there something else at work?" She asked the women who led them through the Mansion.

Flora turned her head to lock eyes with the America-African woman and smiled. "These paintings are no part of any illusion or hallucination, Ms. Munroe. These paintings are from my son who has brought these out of his Family vaults. Each one of them is his ancestors who have lived a life of experience with untold knowledge."

Ororo ears twitched when she caught the veiled answer. She came to a conclusion and asked another question. "You says that these are not imaginary images from our mind, what is then the trick to get these paintings moving?"

"Magic, Mr. Munroe, plain magic." Flora laughed at the dumbfounded expression of Ororo's companion who looks as if he sucked something bitter. "My husband and I are Wizard and Witches respectively. As for my children … they are very special, even in term of Magic."

"My apologies, but I have never heard of Witches and Wizards living amongst us. Would you like to elaborate?" Ororo asked the woman, only for them to arrive in the backyard which can easily be described as a paradise on earth. Storm eyes took in her surrounding and her view was breathtaking.

The garden was easily three football fields together with at the center a small island which was surrounded by water. Golden, Black, and red-white koi Carpers swam around. At the island, a very beautiful cherry tree demanded all the attention with her petals in full bloom. There is a small zen garden at the right side of the garden, and low hills where a path traveled through the uneven ground. At the left side of the garden are a swimming pool and tennis field. "This is beautiful," Ororo managed finally to say.

"I take it you find my garden to your liking." An amused voice replied which earned her attention and Storm's eyes swiftly turned from the garden towards that of a young man, his athletic body gained most of her attention. "Eyes are up here love," the young man told her, which voice was still coated with amusement. Blood rushed towards her face and Storm eyes quickly rose up to meet the strangers very bright emerald eyes. "Hello,"

"Hi," Ororo suddenly squirmed like a young schoolgirl. Her confidant was lost in the radiance of this magnificent handsome person in front of her. "Sorry about staring at you, I did not mean anything with it."

"Don't sweat the small stuff, my boyfriend has sometimes that effect on women, no matter their age." The girl who she just now noticed said, waving away her excuses. My name is Daphne Greengrass this idiot better another half. "His name is Harry Potter, and that there," she pointed at a third person which is a girl and who waved at them. "Is my sister Astoria."

Ororo noticed that the girls wear a small dress which hugged their body nicely. "My excuses of staring at him. I promise it won't happen again, as for our visit: we wanted to introduce myself and my companion and perhaps explain a few things."

Harry, the dark raven haired boy laughed while waving off her promise. "Keep that promise, I know from experience that these won't hold long. Perhaps we can talk over dinner, I have let my servants made some Japanese cuisine for us."

Logan perked up on that and a feral grin appeared on his face. "Kid, you just make my day. Names Logan and I would like to talk to you about some stuff."

"I would have expected nothing else after I have sent that Telepath a mental message to visit me, and right now, here you two found yourself in my humble abode." Harry led them through the veranda until they arrive at a low dining table with cushions surrounding it. Taking a seat and motion for them to follow his example. "Can I offer you something to drink, tea, coffee or perhaps something alcoholic like wine, beer or sake?"

"Tea would be fine for us," Ororo replied, accepting the simple things. She smiled lightly when she noticed the slight grunted look of her companion. "And I would like to thank you and your sister for meeting with us."

"That is not a problem, so why did you come to my place?" Teased Harry playfully, in his mind he knew the exact reason why they came.

The corners of Ororo lips curled up into a beautiful smile when she noticed the playful light in the boy's eyes. "Our reasons for this unsuspected visit is because we were invited by someone who called himself Anodite. This person has unknowingly helped us when our transport was immobile. Without him, we would have crashed into this beautiful mansion or in the school next door."

"The School for Gifted Youngsters and I assume that with 'gifted' you mean what the normal dubbed Mutants?" Harry said.

Ororo took a sip from her tea before placing down the cup and answered the question of the young man. "Yes, you assumed correctly. Logan and I are both gifted and have each power that makes us special. According to your parents, you are a Witch or a Wizard, but there is something else which make you more special than your own people, am I right?"

"Yes, my girlfriend parents are both each respective a Witch or a Wizard which made my girlfriend and her sister a Witch, however during a troublesome time in our past, Astoria became something more. Astoria, if you want to show us?" Ororo and Logan turned to the slightly younger girl who looked with a headstrong expression to them.

Astoria stepped away from the dining table, facing them. At first, nothing happened until the sunlight reflected off her skin. Slowly but steadily her skin turned something akin to a diamond which it was. For a few seconds, the young girl could hold her form before she let it go with a gasp. "Using this form is still hard for me. My diamond form verges a lot of my concentration and I can only hold it for a few seconds." Astoria told them while returning to her seat and accept a cup of milk from her sister's boyfriend.

"That was really impressive. I cannot believe that you have already gained a steady control over your powers. I would like to extend an invitation to join Xavier's School for Gifted Youngsters." Ororo said. And the awe of what she had seen left her very impressed, she then turned to the other two. "And may I ask, are you two also gifted?" She then noticed that Cygnus looked sour for an unknown reason.

Daphne laughed beautifully when she sees her father expression. The young woman left the table, circled around them until she arrived at her father side and hugged him. "Please papa, don't be mad at Harry. He would not have to know that something like that would happen to me, please forgive my foolish boyfriend."

"That is not really the reason my dove, it is more that he deflowered you that made me mad at him. I had not even told you the flowers and the bees before he did the deed. He robbed me of the chance of scaring him like any good father, yet he avoided that and did the deed." Cygnus spoke loudly while Flora sighed at her husband childish side, and the others, his daughter, and son, and their guests turned their head in embarrassment. "So, Tori dear, if you got yourself a boyfriend. I do not want you to take the same path like my dove, am I understood?"

"Yes daddy," Astoria grinned at her father, enjoying the mortified expression of her older sister and Harry. "If I ever find a boyfriend, you can be assured that I will put some silencing charms around my room, unlike my sister who chased everyone out of the House with her moans and begging."

"Tori!" Two people around the table shouted together, Daphne and Harry's faces were dark red from embarrassment at the comment of their little sister. The blonde girl who stood behind her father retreated back to the side of her boyfriend and buried her face into his chest. "Was that really necessary, Tori? We'll speak later about how you disabled our silencing charms when we did the ...deed." Harry told the girl sternly and his eyes flashed a bright emerald green. Turning to his two guests the young apologized to them. "I'm sorry, I had not expected that it would turn out like this. Well, now that we are still on this side of the fence, Daphne love, do you like to show what happened to you?"

For a long moment, Daphne did not respond or move when suddenly and unexpected she lifted her right hand up and aimed her clenched hand at her sister. Purple-pink light surrounded her fist that grew steadily in size before a constructive purple-pink fist made out of light sped through the air and hit Astoria end of her head which caused the younger girl to fall face first into her plate of sushi. "That was for dispelling my charm work and embarrassing us in front of guests," Daphne told her sister coldly from her position on Harry's chest.

"Embarrassing things aside, what was that power, some kind of mental force like those Green Lantern comics?" Logan asked her in a very serious way. The man has ignored the whole banter between family members. After all, Logan has seen and heard much worse in his long years of living.

Daphne turned to Logan and still leaning against her boyfriend. "Kind of, just like my sister I started like a normal Witch. Unlike my sister, I had no change in me through some very bad experience. I got my powers from my boyfriend … and don't ask how. It is embarrassing." She quickly added and cutting off that part of questioning before it could start. "Like most Witches and Wizard we were already mutated and could guide or control the cosmic force which we called Magic. However, there is more to this magic, Mana. Unknown to us, Magic is a part of Mana which is the main drive for Magic, Chakra, Life Force and the Elements. Mana is a pure form of those energies I mentioned. My boyfriend when we fooled around," here Logan rolled his eyes and Ororo could only shake her head while Cygnus glared at his son. "changed me accidentally to a hybrid of being a witch and Anodite."

"Wait, you tells us that you boyfriend changed you because he is what, a compressed being made out of energy?" Ororo spoke with a rising voice, she hasn't expected a story like that. "I am sorry, but that story sounds a bit too far-fetched..." Storm started only to be interrupted by the younger woman who nudged her boyfriend who released his girlfriend from his embrace and just like Astoria he moved slightly away from the table.

Ororo and Logan watch how Harry brought a hand to his face and peeled off his face. Logan grunted, having seen something worse, but this certainly made it to his top three of most sickening thing in the world. As for Storm, she felt her stomach protest and watch how the young man skin slid off and revealed an emerald green being that was in every sense of the words a being of energy. "Aaah, it feels good to take this form again. My apologies if I ruined your appetite … I'm still trying to gaining control over my transformation." Harry now in his Anodite form apologized, yet it seems from hearing his unique voice that the young man wasn't sorry at all. "In this form, my true powers has no restriction and my behavior might change slightly. What comes with this form is my total mastery about my magic, elements and a bunch of other stuff. However, in this form, I become quickly ignorant of what humans call a conscious and I fear that I will lose my Humanity in this form."

Watching how new skin and hair appeared over this being who consist out of energy and became human again, Ororo quickly turned her head when she noticed that the young man in front of her showed his birthday suit. "Harry, your clothes," Ororo heard the girlfriend from the young man calling out, however Storm has already seen too much and tonight would be a restless night for her because this young man was very well equipped. "Sorry about that, Mr. Munroe. As you have noticed, Harry can easily turn to his Anodite form but not so easily to his human one." Daphne's voice was filled with amusement when she noticed the dark blush on the woman face. "Harry is trying to get the hybrid form, part human and part Anodite which is actually an astral form covering his human body or was it now only partly of his body turns..."

"Mr. Potter can try something like focusing his powers in a suit like the comic books from DC Comic Green Lantern," Logan suggested after a moment of thinking. "And please, I'm not easily fooled and you used this opportunity to fool around with us. Sorry buddy, but I am too old to be embarrassed by the means of that." Laughed Wolverine heartedly while Daphne grinned.

"Another thing of being an Anodite, they are free spirited and mostly don't give a shit," Harry informed them while snapping his fingers and removed all the moments that were embarrassing from the two mutants mind. "Well Logan, I would like to see more about this Gifted School, when could we apply for Xavier's School for Gifted Youngsters?"

Logan grinned at the upbeat person while Ororo who do not remember the embarrassing part has recovered and found her appetite back. It was she that answered the young people. "At the moment we had a hard time, I would like if you visit tomorrow to hand in your application and then the day after you will be guided through School and the use of your powers." Here Daphne and Harry grinned like a Cheshire cat.

"Let's toast on new education and a prosper future!" Harry called out and lifted his cup of sake into the air. The others followed his example and then emptied their cups. Quickly after that, the feast started and Harry, his girlfriend Daphne and the others soon were wrapped in a conversation about Xavier's School for Gifted Youngsters, their future and what their power could do.


Xavier's School for Gifted Youngsters...

Charles sits behind his desk, reading the report that Ororo and Logan have made for him. The thought that there is someone at the same level of Power like Jean Grey in close proximity without him picking it up on Cerebro was very concerning, yet on the other hand. This young man sounds very kind and understanding who would love nothing more than to learn about his powers. Shifting through his papers in search of something, Charles finally found it and glanced at the paper. M.A.C.U.S.A. was written in bold. thick letters and the man remembered when they took contact with him.

It has been a few years ago that Charles and his friend Doctor Stephen Strange visited the then Minister of Magic of the United States and warned them about the increased growth of Mutants. Not only in the Mundane world, but also in the Magical world and Charles proposed to start a genetic analysis to confirm about Mutants. However, Charles and Stephen found much more and they told M.A.C.U.S.A. about their research. According to Charles, Wizards and Witches are Earth's very first mutants who could use the Chaos energy to perform magic. Once this was confirmed, Mutants were slowly accepted in the Magical Community and since then they had worked together.

'I cannot believe that there is a mutant who is entirely consisted out of Mana, an energy that has control about anything we know here on earth. According to the briefing, Mr. Potter came first in contact with his powers at birth, yet it really came to him when his mother sacrificed for a second time her life for her son. A very brave and fine example of a Mother's love for her child, not many would do something like that if you look at the children that join my cause.' Charles thought, his chair rotating and moving to the large window of his office. Looking outside the man who has taken up the mission of bringing Mutants and Normal Human together watches how the few children that have joined his School play around. 'Mr. Potter has an excellent control of his power for someone so young, but like he mentioned. The young man does not want to lose his sense of Humanity. And it seems that Mr. Potter is not the only member of the family with gifts, his girlfriend Ms. Greengrass obtained the same powers like him through intercourse and her sister awakened her X-gene during a traumatic experience.' The man sighed when he brought the document about his soon new members of his School to his mind. 'Mr. Potter and Ms. Greengrass and her sister will be easily a Level 5 mutant only on papers, but just like Jean, they will be much more in action. Storm, I and all the other faculty members must help them to gain control of their powers and divide the attention of the Government away from them.' Professor Xavier was brought out of his thoughts when the sounds of someone scratching his or her knuckles against the door of his office. Absentmindedly the Professor responded to the sound. "Please come in Jean, Scott."

The door swept open and two people entered the office of Charles Xavier, one young woman and the other a young man. The first who entered the Professor's office is Jean Grey, a Level 5 Mutant who has a strong Telepathic and Telekinetic powers, She is one of the first who has joined Professor Xavier and is one of the Founder of the X-men team. Scott Summers is another Founder of the X-men team, his powers are absorbing the sunlight and using that power to blast optic lasers from his eyes. These two are just like Charles Xavier, mutants and they were called by him to join the first meeting between them and their newest students. "Hello Professor, how has your day been so far?"

"The day has been fine, Jean, thank you for asking." Charles smiled at Jean and the Professor noticed that the young man next to Jean was quite silence since he entered his office. "Something on your mind Scott?"

Scott frowned a bit and the young man had a serious expression. "Yes, I want to ask if you have any news on these new Mutants. What their powers are and where they did come from." Crossing his arms in front of his chest, Cyclops the name that he uses when doing missions had stepped in his Leadership mode.

"Your reasons are agreeable and I cannot blame you for your curiosity. Yesterday when Jean was unconscious and the Blackbird unstable. Storm who has used her command over the weather to held the aircraft afloat had used her powers for over three hours, and certainly had going over her limit. Yet, she had managed to get us back to our local area where her powers slipped away only for a being of Greenlight to rescue us." Charles explained.

Jean who had a thoughtful look while listening to the story of what had happened when she was unconscious was delighted that they had survived their worst moment. "That is a relief that there was someone to catch us. Did you send Storm and Wolverine to meet them?"

"That is true, I did send the both of them..." Charles started, only for him to be interrupted by Scott Summers who did not look all that happy.

"Professor was it wise of sending that wildling on a diplomatic meeting? We would not want them to decline our invitation because of him talking like a neandertal!" Scott retorted with clearly dislike for the former Weapon-X.

"Scott, I would like if you speak with some more respect about Logan. The man has a hard life, especially when he cannot remember a large part of it. Secondly, Logan and Ororo had invited the new Mutants to my school which means that they did their task, even Logan." Charles sternly spoke to the young man. "I want the two of you on your best behavior when they will come in my office … and that would be in less than two minutes."

"Of course Professor," smiled Jean at the man in the wheelchair while her companion crossed his arms in front of his chest and turned to the door of the office when the sound of a doorknob turned down reached his ears. "Ah, I think here they come."

The door swept open and Ororo led three young people around the same age like Jean and Scott into the office. "A good afternoon Professor, I have brought Daphne Greengrass, her sister Astoria Greengrass and Harry Potter. I see that you have invited Jean and Scott, a good afternoon to the both of you too."

"A good afternoon Ms. Munroe, I assume these are the new students?" Jean said, her voice light and friendly. Her eyes widened slightly when she recognized them and her smile grew. "Daphne what a surprise! I did not know that you were one of us." Laughed Jean while closing the distance between them and hugged the girl firmly.

"Hi, Jean … surprise!" She grinned at the auburn-red haired girl. Daphne's eyes sparkle with amusement. "Before you ask, we did not know if you were like us and hence our silence on this matter. But now that we know that you are gifted like us and my boyfriend then I can finally invite you to my boyfriend's House." Here Ororo coughed quietly in her hand. "Before I forget, this here is my little sister Astoria."

A girl who is almost an exact duplicate of Daphne waved shyly at her. "Hi, nice to meet you, Jean. Like my sister told you, my name is Astoria or you may call me Tori."

Jean smiled warmly at the slightly younger girl in their presence. "Nice to meet you Astoria. Your sister had told me much about you, and is it true that you are like a fox, sly, cunning and full of mischief?"

Laughter quickly filled the office when Astoria laughed humorously. Her shoulders shook slightly and the volume climbed higher when she heard the young man groan. After a few moments, she regained control and gazed up and down the other girl. "Maybe I am or maybe I am not. Just wait and you will learn soon enough."

'Ha, if that didn't answer my question then I do not know much more. She is a prankster at heart and I just hope for our own sanity that she do not meet Kurt.' Thought the girl before her attention turned to the last person. Her breath stuck in her throat when her own light green eyes met that of the young man who has bright emerald eyes. His eyes were much brighter than hers and they look like two shining gems. "Hello… the name is Jean Grey,"

Daphne grinned at her friend and wrapped her arms around the right arm of the dark raven haired boy. She locked eyes with Jean and in an over amused voice she introduced her adopted brother. "Jean to earth, may I introduce you to my adopted brother, Harry Potter," Daphne noticed that the other girl blushed brightly and this make her only cuter. "And he is also my boyfriend." And she could hear glass shatter in the background and she grinned evilly. The eldest Greengrass sister had expected Jean to react, however it was someone else whose voice filled the office.

"Is this bastard the reason why you declined my advances of asking you out Daphne!" Six pairs of eyes turned to the person who has spoken so loudly. Their eyes came to a stop on a hysterical looking Scott Summers. The field leader of the X-men had one hand through his short, brown hair and his eyebrow came up from behind his red tinted glasses while pointing with his other hand at Harry Potter. "You do not deserve her! I do not approve of you being with her. Since I had seen her at Bayville High School a few years ago, I thought that she was Angel from Heaven." Growled Scott towards the raven haired youth who quickly adopted annoying expression.

Harry whose arm was still held by Daphne glared at the other male in the room. When he spoke, it was cold and could have turned someone to ice. "I am sorry, but who do you think that you are … her father? A close friend who she sees as a close family member? I don't think that I have ever heard of you in my entire life with the exception of a stalker who go by the name of Summers, I hope it wasn't you." The young man shot back with a controlled voice which masked the anger that boiled under the surface.

"A few years and you mean by that?" Harry clipped voice was devoid of any warmth.

Scott stretched his back and pushed out his chest. "Since the day I entered Bayville High School, let say four and a half years. Those years I had tried to ask her out, only to rebutted every time when I tried to take her out. And now she suddenly has a boyfriend..."

"Of almost five years. Daphne and I are happily in love with one another and I think I know who you are now … Mr. Summers. I have heard my girlfriend complain a lot about your uncouth behavior towards her which I do not appreciate. From now on, you stay away from her or any member of my family." Harry warned the other male, his eyes flashed for a moment a bright emerald light. "If you don't mind Professor, I would like that Mr. Summers leave this office so we could continue with our introduction and planning."

Charles looked down at the act of Scott Summers, a person who he had raised like a son and now behave like this in front of new potential members for his X-men team. Sighing mentally Charles gathered his thoughts and did something he would never think of himself to do in the first place. "Mr. Summers, please leave my office. I had expected better of you and I would like to talk to you later after this meeting is over."

Summers froze at the spot and mechanically turned his head to look the bald Professor right in the eyes. Probably searching for any jest, yet only found an unyielding gaze penetrating him. "Professor X there is a very good explanation." However, the young man was stopped when Charles lifted a hand to stop him. Shaking his head Professor Xavier pointed towards the door and cutting down another attempt of protest. Once Summers left the office Charles turned back to the group.

"My apologize for his childish behavior. I do hope you can find in your heart to forgive him later. It does not mean now, or one of the upcoming days or weeks. But perhaps one day you can talk like friends or if not then close acquaintances." Charles spoke to them. "That was about Mr. Summers, yet we want to talk about you three. Would you like to talk about your experience with your powers?"

"There is no apologies needed on your part, Professor. I have told him more than enough time that I was already taken and I'm quite content with my love." She turned from the Professor to her boyfriend and kissed Harry lightly on the lips before looking back at the man behind the desk. "And your question about our powers, how would you like us to start. Or will you like to start because we do not know what you want with this knowledge or what you can offer us."

Professor Xavier gave an acknowledging nod to that question. "A fair question, reasonable too if I might say so. It happened many years ago when I met my first friend, Raven. She was like me, a mutant with extraordinary powers. Raven's Mutant gifts came to her physical, shifting her body to any form she wants while mine were internal with no physical changes. Unlike me, she was not adopted by the people and was named called in the worst way.

I accepted for who she was, namely just Raven. It started small with the beginning of me accepting her. We became friends, growing up together and for a long time, everything was fine until more of my people were born. People started to see us like Devil children and cast many Mutants out of their community.

It was not fair!" Charles suddenly raised his voice passionately. His hand curled up into a fist and rested at the desk. "We were normal people with a little change, gifts that could help. Not only for us but also those who were powerless. I saw what we could do and so I started the first Mutant program to help our people. I gathered them together and formed a team to spread out our influence. We found many of our people and with the Government support we found most of them until we stumbled on something." Here the man in the wheelchair grew silence and for a moment the man was lost in the past. Slowly, yet steady the man continued. "We found documents, reports about what their plans were in the long run. The Government saw us like weapons, a tool to carry out their commands and here started our dividing."

"There was someone in your team that did not accept the Government ideals," Harry spoke up, arms crossed in front of his chest. "Please continue,"

"You have guessed that right, Mr. Potter. In my team, there was a man who has become my best friend. A young man with a tragic past and that past still haunted him until this day and it will continue until he is no more amongst us. His name was Erik and his Mutant powers were extraordinaire. Having the powers over magnetic the man wanted a place where Mutants could live and grow old. A dream we both share, yet each of us has their own way to achieve."

Daphne who has her head rest on Harry's shoulder could only grimace at the thought this story painted in her head. "Let me guess, Erik believed in a Mutant world free of normal people?"

Charles nodded at the question. "Yes, you are absolutely right. Erik and I parted ways with our own ideals. However, while our way towards our goal is the difference, our dream stayed the same. We want our people to be free and live their own life where they are not prosecuted by those who wish us harm."

"A noble goal and you have already come far with M.A.C.U.S.A. accepting mutants. The American Magical population are more open minded than those from across the pond." Daphne smiled at the Professor, understanding of her situation clearly seen in her eyes. She turned her eyes to her other half. "What are your thoughts, handsome?"

"It is a Noble cause … a lot of work, investment and time … I like it. Shall we join them, love?" Harry said. They smiled at one another before turning to the youngest member in the room where Harry and Daphne noticed the delighted expression on Astoria face. 'Uh oh… that spells only trouble.'

Astoria smirked with a Cheshire smile. "You two are almost as a married couple, however, don't worry. I won't let anyone ruin your love life. Especially not that idiot!" She heard the two groan at her comment. She suddenly turned to Jean Grey and her eyes sparkle with mischief. "I caught your thoughts and I heard that you too have a residence prankster here which is named Kurt. If you let me meet him I will join your little boy bands."

Charles smiled at the girl. "That would be not a problem, however, I would like to ask that you keep my Mansion whole. It dates from the time Saksen where my forefathers built this castle to keep the Wildlings out of their lands."

"I cannot promise you that Professor, pranking is an overwhelming Force of Nature." Grinned the younger Greengrass at which the other chuckled. She walks to the other side of Harry and grasped his hand and send her sister a grin. "So, Professor can we meet them now?"

Charles chuckled at the performance of the younger Greengrass. "Very well, perhaps it is better if you show your powers in front of the whole group. That way they immediately know what your powers are and what they can expect."

At his words, Daphne and Astoria grinned at Harry. They remembered what has happened two days ago when the African-American woman and that wild, yet kind man had paid them a visit. "We do not have a problem with showing your group our powers. It might become something very interesting for all of us."

Harry shivered at his girl's jab wordplay. The young man decided to stay quiet and see what will happen. It has been funny the first time and for now, he decided to only use a small portion of his powers. The group started to move and walked through the halls of the mansion towards the place the young man would call the living room. "Love, I think that we should use only a part of our powers. The last time we did it was something like out of a Horror movie and we could remove their memories. Now … I am not sure."

"Harry that time we had let our Anodite form taking control of our emotions mostly. This time we keep this minimum and I won't let you give away free shows. After all, we don't want her to have some wet, restless sleep?" Harry could only groan at the impish expression of his girlfriend. Harry then noticed that they were not the first here and see a group of children that can be placed between 15 and 17 years old.

Charles rolled forward and stopped between the two groups. Sitting at one end and smiled at the group as if nothing could make him happier than letting these two groups meet one another. "Children perhaps you have heard the rumors that we got visitors. Those rumors were true. And just like you all, they too gained gifts. I would like to introduce Daphne Greengrass," here Daphne stepped forward and she could see that a few of the boys blushed at her. "Her powers are,"

Daphne grinned which made her much more beautiful than she already is. She twirled her right hand and much to everyone's amazement the furniture float around the room. Her left followed and the sofa landed behind her and the furniture transformed in a loveseat. But what was the most amazing thing was that when she did those spells, her hand gained a purple-pink aura around them. "Like Professor Xavier introduced me, my name is Daphne Greengrass and my powers are Magic and Mana. And before any of you decided to ask me out, sorry I belong already to someone."

There was a clear disappointment around the group, especially the boys. Next, to Daphne, her sister adopted a Cheshire smile and she stepped forward and took a seat on the loveseat which earned the boys attention. "Name is Astoria Greengrass, her sister. My powers are almost the same like that of my sister, namely Magic," here she twirled her hand just like her sister Daphne and Summers' hair turned green with a streak of silver which earned a few snickers. "And I can shift my body to Diamond which gave me an advantage for certain attacks, both Mental and Physical." The two girls and the group of Mutants with the exception of Scott Summers who glared at Harry turned to the only new male.

"I pleasant surprise to see such a gathering of nymphs from the Old Greek Mythology here in this dusty old Mansion." With a flourishing gesture of his hand which to the surprise of everyone had the same colors like his eyes. In front of every girl and women appeared a flower, each complimenting their own eyes. "My name is Harry Potter, Daphne's better another half. As for my power … it is exactly the same as hers." Moving towards the loveseat at which he took a seat and he planted a gentle kiss on her lips. "I do hope we can become great friends and learn from one another."

The young group of Mutants all spoke enthusiastically at the show of powers. It was a young petite girl with long brown hair which she held in a ponytail with layers that frame her cute face which brought out more her large, blue eyes. She wears a pink long sleeved sweater over a cream-colored undershirt. Light blue capris which snuggled her legs nicely. "Catherine Pryde but please call me Kitty! I like your powers, it was so awesome how you changed a sofa in a loveseat and how your boyfriend made these beautiful flowers appear out of nothing." Her bubbly voice and excitement were clear for all to hear. "And you girl, you rock. I bet if Kurt and you work together then no one is safe ...Ooops, sorry Professor." Kitty shied away with a nervous smile. "Ah, my powers is phasing through objects."

"That is so cool!" Squealed Astoria with stars in her eyes. "I bet you can do some great pranks. Do you work a lot with someone who is named Kurt..."

A bamf sound suddenly sounded through the living room and the smell of brimstone lingered in the air. Much to Astoria surprise a blue furred boy who leans against the loveseat and he held a hand with three fingers under her chin. "Hallo schone dame … here is Kurt! ...And ready to Party!"

Astoria much to everyone's surprise laughed aloud and pulled Kurt over the arm support and he fell on the three new Mutants. "Let me guess, you are the prankster that Jean thought about. I've heard you like pranks and from what I saw you can teleport," here she grinned. "I think we can become great friends!"

"Really, that's great!" Kurt too joined his new friend, laughing. The young mutant at first had thought that she would shriek in fear when she noticed him. However, when he heard that she loved pranking, Kurt could not help to appear before her with his powers. "Vhat kind of pranks do you play meirn fruend?"

Charles cleared his throat which earned the attention of the two future troublemakers. "Kurt if you can wait for a few moment and until everyone has introduced himself. You can plan with your new friend your list of ...pranks."

"Really Professor, thank meine fruend," Kurt said before using his powers and with a small bamf, the boy returned to his previous spot. A bright grin was plastered on his face and the others could only imagine what kind of pranks he thought of to play on them.

"So long if you don't prank me, Kurt, understood." A Southern belle stepped forward. Her brown hair waved over her shoulders and two white bang of hair frames her face. She has a voluptuous body which would have probably turned many heads. "Name is Rogue and my power is stealing others so far I know. I warn you to not touch me as I also absorb someone life force."

Harry and his two sisters nodded in understanding. They had learned what would happen if someone would absorb someone's power or life. Especially Harry had some experience when he tried for the first time his powers. "I understand your situation Rogue if you would like we could compare some notes to help one another."

Rogue's eyes and those of the others widened at this news. The Southern belle took a step back in disbelief when she heard him speak. "Ho … how did… you..."

"Gaining control. It was not easy, that I can tell you. When I use my true form … my powers turn hard to control. One time, I almost brought down my Mansion charms down which is a danger in itself. Gladly it did not or else we would not talk right now." Harry told her with a smile. His eyes shining and held an understanding that someone like her could only understand. She smiled briefly at him, hope growing in her chest for a better future.

Jean Grey stepped forward and smiled warmly at them. Her long auburn-red hair swayed behind her when she moved. "Hi, I did not introduce when we met in Professor Office. Something I want to rectify, my name is Jean Grey and my powers are telepathic and telekinetic powers. Something that you don't have to worry about with your own powers working like a defense mechanism. However, I would like to compare notes with you all, only if you want."

Daphne stands up from the loveseat and closed the distance between them. Grasping Jean's hand lightly in her own, she smiled at her. "I would like that Jean. Comparing notes and then do some shopping," the blonde haired girl then turned to other women of the group. "And if you, Kitty, Rogue and Ms. Munroe would like to join us, you will always be welcome. Especially when my boyfriend offers to pay, right love?"

"Only if I can choose some clothes for myself if you don't mind." Harry surrendered to his girlfriend. A small smile lingered on his lips and secretly the young man already looked forward to a shopping day with the girls.

"That is settled then, now only a date..." Daphne gushed. She twirled her hand and to everyone amazing a calendar appeared in midair, floating. "Now what day would be perfect for us ...hmmm."

Jean could only stare in amazing at the girl. She wondered how Daphne could so easily demand that her boyfriend would pay for their shopping spree. Coming to a decision, Jean opened her mouth to ask when suddenly the alarm blared through the Mansion.
