I had teleported to Las Vegas to the very casino that I saw in the movie, Atomic.
I was standing on the other side of the street and saw Agent MacTaggert getting out of the car in her stripper attire.
'Damn' I couldn't help thinking, she was very sexy.
Seeing her going into the club I was pretty sure the events were exactly as I remembered, so I waited until she got back to the car before teleporting to another spot to meet another one of the key players.
Despite now knowing that Emma was here, I couldn't just barge in there, she'd react crazily and there was too much to talk about with her, namely asking why she never looked for Kayla.
I was also glad that I wouldn't have to worry about either her or Charles being able to read my mind.
I found that over at least 7 years of constantly enhancing my mind and body, not only was I at least as strong as a transformed beast, but my mind was ridiculously strong.
I had also read various books on creating a mind palace and even though it's not the same, utilizing my Lightforce and my knowledge from the books, I created a perfect mind palace.
Not only was it made out of pure light, which would've been hard enough to deal with as one wouldn't know where to even look for my thoughts and memories, they could barely see through the blinding light in my mind.
My memories to include, meta knowledge that was hidden inside a secret room inside the large Light mansion I created and they were inside a computer made of light and hidden in a zip folder that you needed an administrative password to access.
Suffice it to say, unless I want them to, no telepath can read my mind.
An ancillary benefit of the mind enhancing is that I gained rudimentary telekinesis, it isn't anything to write home about, not even a fraction as powerful as my light constructs, and it isn't anywhere close to young Jean Grey's level but it's useful.
I arrived at Oxford University, knowing Xavier would be here and I waited.
(A few hours later)
I watched as Xavier walked out with Raven and heard them talking about getting a drink and also watched as Agent MacTaggert started to follow them.
I went to the bar following Moira as I then watched the young Charles Xavier being a drunk idiot then hitting on Moira.
I knew what events would happen so I kept an eye on the CIA headquarters building and the third-floor parking garage until I eventually saw Xavier, Raven, Moira, and the CIA liaison get into the car.
I then teleported until I was in the clouds and flew above them while following using my marker that I placed on Moira back in Vegas.
It wasn't a physical marker more like leaving the essence of my Lightforce on her that only I could sense let alone track.
As we left London and the clouds dimmed, I flew higher in the sky being just at the edge of the lower stratosphere.
I followed the marker from the sky and when it slowed down I flew downward following the marker and I saw a ship in the middle of the ocean and I saw a guy get smacked into the ocean by a girl seemingly made of diamonds.
I knew it was Erik Lensherr or Magneto and Emma.
Before anything else could happen, as I heard Charles say that he was being blocked by a telepath, I teleported behind them with a bright flash of light.
"Hey, need some help?" I asked as I was floating with my light aura around me and saw twin tornadoes forming from the other ship getting larger and larger.
I purposefully created a giant Greatsword construct and slashed apart the two tornadoes to the shock of not only the creator, but Shaw, Charles, and especially Emma.
'Andrew?' She questioned in her head.
'Hey beautiful, miss me?' I said projecting my thoughts to her.
Before Emma could respond, Magneto showed up and began controlling the ship's anchor to attack Shaw and Emma.
I watched carefully and was waiting to see if Emma would get hurt, but it seems my worries were unfounded as I saw the submarine detach from the bottom of the ship and the light of it moving under the water. I quickly placed a light marker on it and watched as Erik tried to stop it and it began to drag him.
"Let go, you have to let go!" Charles shouted to Erik before pleading with the crew to jump in after him.
I then heard a voice in my head.
'Can you stop him, get him to let go?' Charles asked in my head.
'Not alone, I can keep him from drowning, but someone has to snap him out of his single-mindedness.' I replied Telepathically
Charles nodded and began to get ready to jump in the water as I created a large sphere of light around Erik keeping him from being pulled further and at the same time Charles jumped in the water, a gap opening for him to get in and talk with Erik.
Eventually, Erik let go and Charles and Erik broke through the surface of the water and a large platform made of light was below them pulling them up and I heard the second part of their conversation.
"You were in my head, how'd you do that?" Erik asked breathlessly.
"You have your tricks, I have mine, I'm like you. Just calm your mind." Charles replied.
"I thought I was alone." Erik said.
"You are not alone. Erik, you are not alone." Charles said, the first part said with a breathless chuckle and when he repeated himself he looked up and Erik followed his gaze and saw me floating in the air with a light aura around me, only just realizing he was on a light platform.
"Who is he?" Erik asked as he saw a powerful mutant right in front of him.
"I don't know yet, but he helped me save you, and he stopped one of the mutants working for Shaw." Charles replied.
(A few hours later)
The group arrived at the Covert CIA research facility under their CIA liaison, I had been cramped in the back with Erik, Charles, and Raven. But I didn't mind it that much as Raven was pressed up against me
We all got out of the car and I could see that Raven was slightly flustered at having been pressed against me for the duration of the drive to which I simply winked at her as even though she was hopelessly into Charles, she had started to realize he would only see her as a friend.
They had asked me many different questions while in the car and I told them I'd answer them once we were in a safer place.
Charles nodded, Raven seemed a little disappointed, and Erik simply shrugged as if he didn't care but I saw his eyes shine in anticipation as he knew I'd be helpful against Schmidt.
I had met the founders of the X-Men and I couldn't wait to meet everyone else.
'Take a good look around Shaw because your future's about to change' I thought with a smirk
