Author: The final part. I will focus on my Edgerunner books after this.

Lorna: Is there anything you can do?!

Jean: I don't know.

Mom: Y/N I forbid you from using your powers.

Y/N: What about Tobias?

Dad: I'll take care of him.

Y/N: How? You don't even know where he is.

You stare confused at your angry father.

Dad: He'll have to show himself eventually and when he does I'll end him. I'll end him for good.

S/N: He's too powerful. Dad don't throw your life away.

Y/N: S/N is right for once.

Mom: I have to agree with the kids... Tobias isn't a fool. He's most likely planned a way to counter you... And with Gary gone. You have no way of drawing him into a trap.

Dad: He has to pay. He's too significant to just ignore.

Mom: I agree but we have to be smart... Smarter than Tobias.

Your dad grunts in irritation.

Y/N: Can me and Lorna have the room? Please?

Mom: Of course Y/N... Everyone else out at once.

Your mother pushes your father, your sister and Jean out of the room. You stare at your mother unamused.

Y/N: That means you too mom.

Your mother pouts and leaves the room closing the door behind her. You sigh before turning to Lorna.

Y/N: Lorna I love you.

Lorna looks at you confused.

Lorna: I love you too but where is this coming from?

Y/N: I just wanted you to know... Just in case I die.

Lorna: You won't die. I won't let you.

You smile grabbing her hand.

Y/N: The truth is I don't think I can just stand by and not use my powers... If I see someone I care about... If I see you in danger. I'll use my powers without hesitation because you're worth it.

Lorna: But you'll die?

Y/N: I don't care... I love you. You bring joy to my life and I'd rather die then live without you.

Lorna leans her head into your neck.

Lorna: I don't want to live without you either. Let's make a deal... Neither of us dies.

Y/N: I... I can't promise that. Life isn't that simple.

Lorna: We're Mutants... We have power and with that power we can do anything. Let's make it simple. None of us are dying... You hear me?

You smile.

Y/N: Yeah... Okay.

(Timeskip - An hour later)

You look at Charles and Magneto.

Magneto: Do you think it is wise to return to your mansion so soon?

Charles: No but I need to use Cerebro... I need to find Tobias. His power rivals that of a Apocalypse.

Magneto: We barely manage to beat him together... We had to rely on Phoenix.

Charles: And that is something we can not do again.
