Marvel : Nightwing

X-Mansion

X-Mansion, Westchester County, New York

"So you are here upgrading Cerebro again" Logan stated as he look around the large spherical room. Cerebro is located underneath the mansion and has been designed to help amplify Charles telepathy power to be able to locate mutants anywhere in the world.

"Yes, with the increase of mutants in the human race, a more powerful version is required and I need to keep my mind occupied" Charles Xavier replied as he inputs new lines of code into the control program.

Charles then turns his attention towards the native American man underneath the console "How is it going Forge ?"

"Nearly done here Professor, it just requires some some fine tuning and it will be ready to go" Forge replied as his techno organic hand changed into a tool he needed as he continued his work under the console as Charles replied "Thank you Forge."

"Will the upgrade done to Cerebro help you find Magneto ?" Logan asked.

"I am not sure, Logan. You know what he is capable of" Charles replied as his friend Magneto is able to shield himself from every kind of telepathic detection that Charles could think of.

"Yes, he could also be searching for new mutants to join his cause." Logan say with contempt as he think of the mutant with magnetic power. Magneto's goal is to have mutants dominate the human race and destroy anyone that goes against him.

"I am also worried that with Nightwing's visit tomorrow, he will draw Magneto's attention" Charles replied feeling concerned.

Logan grumbled "They are going to discover that he is a mutant anyway".

"My concerns is that Magneto will try to find a way to control him to help achieve his goals. Even though I know he is a superhero but we don't know whether we can stop him if Nightwing suddenly turns against us" Charles replied concernedly as he thinks of the Nightwing latest fight at Harlem.

The news of Nightwing fight has made the mutants in the mansion more motivated to go out and become a hero too. Charles doesn't want his students to endanger their life and bring unwanted attention to the mansion.

Logan growled "He is nothing special, he is just lucky that I had no intention to kill him last time".

"I just don't want him to fall into Magneto's grasp and we don't understand his power yet" Charles replied concernedly.

"We can summon the X-Men to test him out" Logan temptingly.

"No" Charles quickly replied as he continued "We are not going to fight, Logan. We are trying to invite him to join us and be on friendly terms with him".

Logan grunted "Magneto won't take no for an answer if he does the recruiting."

"Indeed but this a recruitment assignment Logan so please don't try to cause a fight. A confrontation is only a last resort" Charles replied calmly as he hopes his students will behave tomorrow, but the person he is more worried of is Logan who seems to be itching for a fight.Logan snorted and walked away.
