X-MEN- CH-46. Making them stronger
Added 2024-10-04 03:09:36 +0000 UTCHolding Jean, hugging Emma and Raven, and comforting them, he finally made them give up the idea of improving their strength right now.
"By the way, has Logan left?"
Emma nodded, "I got the call, he has left."
After thinking for a while, Martin said, "I'm going to Canada in a few days."
Raven and Jean knew what he was going to do. Although Emma didn't know, it didn't matter. She would do whatever Martin said. She could guess that when he met this friend named Logan today, he had said he wanted to go out. The reason was obvious.
"Can I go with you?" Jean asked.
"No, you still have to go to school. You will graduate this year. Have you decided where to go for college?"
"Hehe..." Jean suddenly laughed out loud.
"What's wrong?"
"I have qualified for admission to MIT," Jean said proudly.
"Huh? When? How come I didn't know?" Martin asked in surprise.
"This shows that you are not a qualified parent. You never pay attention to my studies."
"Uh... hehe." Martin smiled awkwardly and continued, "Well, I only care about whether you are happy and whether anyone bullies you."
"Although I can't compare to you now, there is probably no one my age who can bully me..." Jean said confidently.
"Yeah… that's right."
Jean's Phoenix power had increased a lot, and her main increase was in energy. She was definitely a force to be reckoned with.
"Are you going to attend the graduation party? Have you decided who to go with?" Raven asked.
Of all the people here, Jean was the only one who had the opportunity to participate in this kind of activity, so she was a little curious.
Martin shook the piano with his leg and said with certainty, "Who else could it be but me? Right?"
"Haha, yes, of course, we go together."
Emma asked, "Can we go play together?"
Thinking about it, a high school graduation party was definitely not as exciting as a party at the Hellfire Club, but after all, it had special significance, and several people who had not attended were very curious.
"Just sneak in. There will be so many people there. For those of you sitting here, there's nowhere you can't go."
A few hours passed quickly as they chatted about family matters and ate tofu of different flavors.
There was the sound of a car outside, and soon someone walked to the door of the house.
Raven slapped the hand off her thigh and stood up to meet Charles at the door.
Jean was too embarrassed to continue sitting on Martin's lap.
"My Emma is still the best." Martin pinched her a little harder and sighed.
But he must not embarrass them in front of outsiders.
Martin let go of her hand, stood up, and walked to the door, just as Charles and Hank walked in. He and Raven welcomed them in and sat them down in the living room.
Moira probably didn't come this time because she knew Martin didn't like the CIA. Or maybe it was because the meeting had just ended, and she was busy.
"Has it been dealt with?"
"Yes, thank you for your help and for taking care of these children."
"No, thank Raven."
After hearing this, Charles thanked Raven, and she nodded.
"I'll come and get the kids."
"Go back?"
The X Academy was already in ruins. How could they accommodate them when they went back?
"I will first settle them somewhere else, and I will find someone to rebuild the academy..."
When Charles said this, his eyes looked at Jean intentionally or unintentionally because he could feel the power of the Phoenix emanating from her, and it felt very powerful.
"She is Jean. I brought her back from there two years ago."
"Hello, I'm Charles. I founded the X Academy, which accepts all mutants. In the future, it will also accept ordinary people. I'm trying my best to make mutants and ordinary people live in peace. The results are pretty good now. At least the government's attitude towards us is still relatively peaceful."
Martin didn't say anything, just smiled and looked at Hank and the others.
Jean nodded and replied, "I know. Martin took me there two days ago, but you were not there."
"Oh, yes, Hank did, but I don't know if it was you." Charles nodded with a smile, then asked Martin curiously, "How did you suppress the power in her body?"
In his opinion, that force was too strong and full of destructive power, and it was impossible for a child to control it easily.
"There was no suppression, just letting Jean try to accept it. Fortunately, she succeeded, and they accepted each other."
"But this power feels..."
"It's just power. There's no good or bad in it. It just depends on who has it and how they use it to achieve their goals."
"Yeah... you're right."
Charles thought about it and said to Martin, "I plan to form a team of mutants to maintain the current peaceful situation. Are you interested?"
"Who? Emma?"
"No, no... Of course not."
Emma was the White Queen of Hellfire; how could she join Charles' team? Everyone else refused, including Raven. In her opinion, she and Charles only had a little affection left, but that didn't mean she and Charles had the same views. Compared with Charles and Erik, she agreed with Erik's point of view more. If Erik hadn't acted so crazily, it's hard to say whether she would have left the Brotherhood of Mutants.
Charles was a little disappointed after being rejected. He chatted casually for a few more minutes and then left with the people from X Academy.
"Did Nightcrawler promise you?" Martin asked Emma as he watched the blue guy follow Charles.
"No, he doesn't seem to like the Red Devil very much. He also said that he likes the atmosphere at X Academy."
"Well, forget it then."
"That's not the point. Now that everyone who should leave has left, shouldn't we get down to business?" Emma asked with a smile. It seemed like she really couldn't wait to increase her strength.
"What's the matter?" Martin asked with a smile.
"Hiss..." Emma just licked her lips slowly.
Martin took Emma and Raven's hands. "Haha... let's go back and start."
"What about me?" Jean asked.
"You don't need it. The Phoenix Force is the strongest power. Mine can only enhance the mutant aspect of your power."
Jean said dissatisfied, "I want to go and see."
"Well, let's go. And you, Wendy, too."
Anyway, it's just to enhance the strength of a few people, so she could watch if she wanted.
Back in the room, Martin asked, "Who's going first?"
"What should I do?" Emma said impatiently as she stood in front of Martin.
"You don't have to do anything."
As Martin spoke, he reached out and took Emma's hand, then activated his energy transfer ability and began to enhance Emma's strength.
"Hmm…"
Emma felt full at first when she suddenly had energy, but as the energy grew, she felt as if every cell in her body was agitated.
