~Victoria~

"Charles." I say from the doorway to his study "Come in Victoria. What did Hank say?" He asks "He said that I have a healing factor that's strong enough to heal fatal wounds but not if say my hand was cut off." I say sitting in the chair across the desk from him "Well that explains how you survived the crash." He says a thoughtful look crossing his face "Well now since we've solved that mystery how about you try and enter my mind." He says standing and walking over to the sofa and sitting down. I walk over and sit down so I'm facing him. After a few minutes he nods and I do exactly what he did last night. When I reach his mind I can see a wall of marble. I scan the wall for weak points. When I find one I through my full full strength against the weak point. When it doesn't crack a do it again. It cracks slightly. I hit it again and again until it crumbles. With one last powerful hit it crashes down. As soon as I'm in his mind a leave it. I open my eyes to look at Charles "Impressive." He says opening his eyes "Thank you." I say smiling brightly "How did you do it?" He asks me "I looked for a weak point in the wall." I say shrugging "Great." He says. We stay like that for a few minutes looking into eachothers eyes. Charles' eyes flick down to my lips before looking back at my eyes. I nod slightly knowing what he was asking. He leans forward and kisses me. A thousand fireworks go off as I wrap my arms around his neck and he wraps his arms around my waist, pulling me closer. When we both need air he pulls away slowly and rests his forehead against mine "You have no idea how long I've wanted to do that." He whispers "I think I get a small idea." I answer just as quietly. I rest my head on his shoulder as he laughs slightly "Am I that obvious?" He asks "Yes Charles. Yes you are especially when I heard you and Eric talking in the car. I thought my mind was messing with me." I answer "I can promise you it wasn't. Victoria, what would you say if I found you brother?" He asks. I draw back slightly to look at him "What?" I ask "I found your brother. He's fine and he's looking for you." He explains to me "Where is he?" I ask excitedly "He's outside." He says smiling at the ecstatic look in my eyes.

{Derek}

I stand outside the huge house that Charles Xavier told me to come to. I raise my fist and knock on the door. A tall man with dark auburn hair opens the door. "Hi I'm Derek Turner. A man, Charles Xavier, said my sister, Melodie, was here." I say nervously "Ah Derek, hello. Follow me." The man from the bar, Charles Xavier, says coming down some stairs. I quickly follow after him after the tall, intimidating man steps aside. Professor Xavier leads me to an office where a girl with dark hair is sitting on a window seat "Derek. Just so you know she's lived as Victoria since the accident." Professor Xavier warns before leaving me in the doorway of the room. "Melodie?" I ask walking into the room. The girl turns and looks at me "Hey Derek." She says smiling before she stands and walks over to me "I thought you were dead." I say embracing her tightly "I know and I never stopped looking for you. I just couldn't find you." She says returning the embrace with as much force as me.

{Erik}

"I didn't know we had a Melodie amongst us." I say as Charles enters the kitchen. Everyone turns to look at Charles confused including Raven. "It is not my place to tell you." He says before he starts making himself some tea "Melodie Turner. Her parents died in a car crash. She disappeared not long after. Her brother thought his entire family was dead." Raven says turning "Victoria Robinson appeared the exact day that Melodie Turner disappeared. Victoria is Melodie. You knew but you didn't tell any of us." Alex says smiling "I knew we could trust you." He adds "He lied to us." Raven says glaring at Charles "He lied to protect a fellow mutant and technically it was never his secret to tell." Hank says glaring at Raven.

{Victoria - Or Melodie}

"Come on I want you to meet the others." I say grabbing Derek's hand. 'Victoria. Raven seems to have put 2 and 2 together and figured out who you are. I promise I didn't tell anyone.' Charles' voice rings through my head "Oh boy." I mutter "What?" Derek asks "Raven figured out I'm Melodie. I am so screwed." I say. We reach the kitchen and the first thing I hear I Charles. "It was not my place to tell you." He says "A little heads up that we had a mutant amongst us with a death mark over her head would have been nice." Agent Moira says heatedly "This is why I never tell anyone who I am unless I can trust them." I mutter from the door "He didn't tell us." Erik says glaring at Raven "I know." I say nodding "This is my brother Derek." I say gesturing to him "Derek this is Erik Lehnsherr, Raven Darkholme, Sean Cassidy, Alex Summers, Hank McCoy, Agent Moira MacTaggert and you've already met Charles." I say pointing out everyone "Hi everyone." Derek says timidly "Are you a mutant?" Raven asks "No. Sadly only Melie has the cool super powers." He answers sadly "You're not afraid of mutans?" Sean asks "No I went to school with a lot of mutants so I learnt not to be scared of them. Melie got into a lot of trouble with her's. Especially the accidental mind reading." Derek explains "How much trouble?" Moira asks "I often got in trouble when I knew what happened at a crime scene before the police." I say "That would get you into trouble." Alex says laughing slightly "It caused a lot of strife for my family." I say.

{Charles} - 1 hour later

"I have to go I have to pick up my daughter from school." Derek says smiling slightly "I have a niece? What's her name?" Victoria asks "Robin." Derek says before he follows Erik to the door. Victoria walks out of the room and up the stairs. I follow her and find her sitting in the library "Victoria are you alright?" I ask sitting next to her "I missed so much." She says leaning against me "Well now you can make up for that." I say wrapping my arms around her waist "I know but what if I don't survive this fight with Shmidt. My niece would only know about me through stories. I don't think that is how I want my niece to know me." She says looking up at me with a sad look in her eyes "You won't die before you meet her. I won't let you." I say looking down at her "I don't want you to get hurt either." She mutters resting her head against my chest. We sit like that for most of the afternoon talking about things we've never told anyone else.

{Erik}

I walk into Charles' office to see him and Victoria asleep on the couch with Charles' arms wrapped around Victoria's waist. I smile slightly closing the door behind me. "He's in love with her, isn't he?" Agent MacTaggert asks from across the hall "Yes he is. You are not going to do anything to stop him." I answer glaring at her "I won't I just want to know why you aren't scared of her. Shaw went after her. Her parents denied him. He had them killed. He will kill all of you." She says shaking her head "I know what he is he killed my mother in front of me. She has suffered more loss by his hands than I have. She is not going to get us killed because I'm going to kill Shaw before he knows who she is." I say before walking away.

To Be Continued...

A/N

I am so sorry this is late I have just had so much school work, because I am in grade 10. Updates will be slow because I have so many stories to finish and to start because it is becoming way to hectic in my mind and I feel like my brain is going to explode. And Derek Turner is played by Steven R. McQueen, or Jeremy Gilbert.
