The group arrived at the Xavier mansion, and as they looked up at the sprawling structure, they couldn't help but feel a sense of awe.
"So, this is yours?" Sean asked, clearly impressed.
"No, it's ours," Charles replied with a warm smile, glancing back at the group.
"Honestly, Charles, I didn't know how you survived," Erik remarked, a playful smirk on his face. "Living in such hardship," he added sarcastically, eyes twinkling.
"Well, it was a hardship, softened by me," Raven teased, walking over to Charles. He kissed the side of her head, making the others smile.
"Come on, time for the tour," Charles said, motioning to the grand entrance.
They approached massive double doors, and as Charles pushed them open, the light from inside spilled out, revealing the mansion's opulent interior.
Natalie chuckled softly. "I couldn't stand living in a place like this," she said with a lighthearted shrug.
Charles smiled back at her. "That's because you've never experienced the joy of running this place."
The group stepped inside, marveling at the expansive space and the grandeur of the mansion's interior. Charles and Raven walked ahead to flick on the lights, their footsteps echoing.
"You ready?" Raven called out, excitement in her voice.
"Yeah," came the collective response, and the group slowly made their way over to her.

Charles had big plans for the mansion. This place wasn't just a sanctuary—it was a training ground. He would help each of them harness their powers, helping them understand what they could truly do.
First, he worked with Erik, helping him fine-tune his magnetic control. Then it was Alex's turn, followed by Sean, Hank, and finally, Natalie.

Natalie stood at the edge of an open field, the grass rustling beneath her feet. Charles walked beside her, the weight of the day's training still hanging in the air.
"Charles," she began, her voice thoughtful. "I've been around for a long time. I think I know what I'm doing," she said with a teasing smile, trying to lighten the mood.
"Ah, that's where you're wrong," Charles replied with a grin. "Alright, I think here is as good a place as any."
Natalie looked around at the field, the sunlight catching the edges of the tall grass. "It's so beautiful out here. It's... amazing," she sighed, a rare moment of tranquility washing over her.
