Astonishment

"It's not an ambush. Is it? You are giving up our location so that your precious X-men is safe.`` Erik said.

"I would be disappointed if you think so lowly of me, my friend. I will wait for you. Be here in an hour." Charles said before signing off from the mind of Pyro. He came out of the Cerebro as the others were now waiting outside the medical room. Today was supposed to be the day when the girl would wake up from her coma.

At least that's what Dr. Reyes expected so everybody of the X-men who cared about her were waiting for the good news. After much investigation it was found that the particles inside her were really antimatter. Beast confirmed it and said the power which she has might be related to something in the line of time and space.

Because only those kinds of powers could wrap antimatter without harming the body. Everybody was astonished when Beast came out with this report. They thought the girl was just powerful but listening to what Beast said they realized the water was very deep here and they needed to swim in it very carefully.

Charles was riding his wheelchair towards the medical wing when a purple portal opened in front of him. The portal looked unstable and small as if it would close any moment. But the portal was big enough to fit a man as in the next moment magneto came out of the portal.

"You came faster than I expected." Charles said while looking at his old friend with his own eyes.

"What can I say? By saying words like antimatter you piqued my interest." Erik said while shrugging his shoulders.

"Then I should have gone with the statement that the girl might have powers related to space and time." Charles said. Erik's face became sombre when Charles said. It was all good if she was of their kind, but she wasn't and if she had powers related to space and time, he wasn't sure if the girl would be a threat to them.

"Erik, I know what you are thinking. But let me make this clear, you won't touch her until we make it apparent if she is a threat to the mutants or not." Charles said as he was afraid he might just kill her before figuring out what was going on.

"I am not the monster you think I am." Erik said while shaking his head.

As they were talking they had already reached outside the medical room. Logan clenched his fist when he saw Erik. For Logan, Erik was his arch nemesis. Someone who was born to be the greatest rival for a lifetime, but here he couldn't retaliate as he was invited by Professor himself.

He just glared at Magneto but didn't say a word.

"Relax macho man. I am not here to abuse you." Magneto joked. Logan was ready to argue when the door of the medical room opened and Dr. Reyes came out.

"She is awake. She has opened her eyes. But I will keep this straight. Don't push her too much. She is in trauma. The first words that came out of her mouth were mom and dad. Assuming she had lost her parents, I hope you will be sensitive to her situation before you go full Sherlock Holmes on her." Dr. said.

"Charles here can just go into her mind and bring out all the secrets." Erik said.

"I won't do such unethical things until absolutely necessary." Charles said as he went right in with the other X-men, followed by Erik.

They came near the bed where the girl was lying down. She had her eyes open but the bruises that she had suffered were still apparent on her face. And in many places of the body she was still bandaged. She was just looking at the ceiling with tears flowing down her eyes.

This scene made everybody sad. They could already guess that she had lost her parents. In a normal situation they would have let the girl heal well and then ask questions but here they were running out of time. Sentinels could be knocking on their door any moment. Charles finally took up the courage and said

"Hello Miss. I am Charles Xavier. And these are my friends and colleagues. Can I know your name?"

The girl moved her eyes and looked around. She looked at Charles and the other people standing. Her eyes seemed like it was in pain but in depth of this one could easily feel a sense of determination.

"Which Earth is this? How many fighters do you have?"

Those were the first words that came out of her mouth. She said in a slow and steady pace. All the other people present in the room were dumbfounded by this. They thought she would introduce herself first but all she asked was a very weird question which they couldn't find the head and tails of.
