6 Father and Uncle

After thinking for a while, Zypher spoke: "I agree, but first answer my few questions."

Professor X was happy that the boy agreed without making a fuss. He nooded: "Yes, you can ask what you want."

Zypher said: "Is the safety and environment of school guranted for the children?"

Professor X replied: "Yes, it is completely safe. You don't have to worry about the safety issues. There are a lot of teachers to guide and protect the students."

Zypher nodded and then asked again: "How many students can you take in the school and what is the fee for the school. I don't have any money, but I can work."

Everyone was a little surprised by boy's concern, but smiled in their hearts. Even on Batman's face, although covered by mask, there was a little smile. Professor replied gently: "You don't have to worry. The expenses of children at Xavier college are free of cost. You can study without any worries."

Zypher nodded but then said: "I will not study. I am asking for my sister. She will study there. She's small and someone needs to take care of her."

Although Zypher tried to be indifferent, but whenever he spoke of his sister, a small appeared on his face. Everyone smiled seeing the situation. Now they know why they indifferent boy from earlier agreed to go with Professor X easily. He also has someone precious he loves and cares about.

Professor X said: "Don't worry. Teachers will take special care of young children. They are treated with care. The one behind me are teacher Orlo and Scott who teach in the college. You should also study in the collage. If you have any other questions, you can, but come down before that."

Zypher nodded and landed on the Helicarrier. He said to Professor: "My questions for college are complete, and I will go there to enroll my sister. There is another question I want to ask. Even if you don't know, there is no problem."

"Ask"

"Do you know someone named Bruce Wayne and Eric Lehnsherr."

Everyone was stunned. Members of Justice League looked at Batman with confused eyes and even Batman was a little puzzled. How can a mutant kid have anything to do with him. He doesn't remember having any contact or being related to him.

Professor X was also a little stunned hearing the name of his friend from the kid's mouth. He asked with a little inquiry: "Why do you ask?"

Zypher looked at him sharply: "Do you know or not."

"I know, but first tell me why you are asking this. What do you have to do with them." Professor asked. Everyone also looked at Zypher, waiting for answer. How can someone who doesn't have much contact with outside world knows about these names. And it seems he doesn't even know about Bruce Wayne or Magneto, he just seems to know these names.

Zypher was a little impatient and unhappy now. If it were someone else, he might have attacked already. But thinking that he is Carla's new school principal, he stopped. Others also saw boy's impatience, his attacking intent and then returning to calm by himself.

Zypher looked at Professor X and answered: "Bruce Wayne is my father and Eric Lehnsherr is my uncle. I also don't know anything about them other than the name."

This time the scene fell into a deadly silence. No one said anyting and just looked at each other with unbelievable eyes. Does this kid even know what he is talking about. These two identities are nothing less than a blast, wether it is being Bruce Wayne's child or Magneto's nephew.

Tony looked at the boy curiously and said: "On the closer look, the kid does have the same back hair and blue eyes like that sissy. His face also looks a little like him."

Professor X added: "And his jaw and lower face are Eric's replica."

Batman who was quiet the whole time, said: "A testing is still needed. The children can go with us to the Watchtower. Justice league will contact Bruce Wayne for parental identification."

"No" Both Professor X and Zypher repeated simultaneously.

Zypher looked at everyone seriously: "I will only go to the Mutant school with my sister. We don't need any father. I am more than enough for myself and my sister. And if you want to do anything, you can contact Eric Lehnsherr to meet us at the mutant school. My mom only asked us to go to our uncle."

Orlo storm asked: "What is your mother's name?" There was a hope in her eyes as if expecting something. Professor X, Scott and others present also looked for the answer. Bruce also wanted to know the name of children's mother. Maybe, he can remember something from the name, even if no parental test has been done.

Zypher replied: "Emily Lehnsherr."

"Really Emily's child, Emily has children." Strom ran to Zypher's side and hugged him tightly. Zypher wanted to resist, but looking at the eyes full of love, he stopped himself and just stood there. He said: "Do you know about my mother?"

Storm replied: "Of course I know. We were best friends at a time."

Professor X also said: "Emily was a proud student of mine."
