- PROFESSOR X'S POV -

"CHARLES!" Logan barged into my office suddenly.

"Yes Logan?"

"How the hell are we going to get Rose back?!" he yelled, very close to my face. "Huh? Answer me that big guy!"

"I've selected a group of students to go find her." I smiled proudly. "The best students here actually. One of them volunteered to go."

"Oh and let me guess, Harry's coming too?!" He threw his hands up in the air.

"Well yes." I replied.

"Charles! My god! He has not a mutant! He's weak!"

"Logan I should hope that you're not doubting my decisions." I looked at him incredulously. "Because if so, that could go very badly for you."

"Fine! Well what about the others? Who else is --"

"Logan why does it matter? They are skilled and can do the job well."

"Because they're children! You can't just send them into battle without any warning!"

"They're in their 20's, they're not children."

"Then why are they in school?! They are still learning things that they need. We can't just deploy them wherever." He shook his head. "At least not without supervision."

"Would you get out of my office if I let you go along?" I rolled my eyes.

"Of course."

"Then fine you can go." I said as Logan stood up, thanking me. "Now get out!"

Logan ran out and I went back to my work that I had been doing before Logan got here.

- ELLE'S POV -

I pulled out a suitcase from my closet.

Only a few days here and I'm already pulling this old thing out again. I thought.

What do you even pack for a daring mission to save your roommate?

I had gotten Harry's number at breakfast this morning so I pulled out my phone and texted him.

To: Harry

What am I even supposed to pack like ???

I set my phone down and took out some combat boots, which I stuffed into my bag.

My phone chimed and I picked it up.

From: Harry

Lol do you have a suit? Like something to wear in battle?

I raised my eyebrow and responded.

To: Harry

Uhh no. Why was I supposed to go to Macy's before I came?

I sat on my bed waiting for his reply. My eyes drifted to Rose's messy bed in the corner. I missed her.

As my phone went off again, I snapped out of my trance, still thinking of Rose.

From: Harry

I'll come to your dorm in 5, Professor X has a plethora of suits down in his gallery.

To: Harry

kk I'll be ready.

Five minutes later, I was is a room filled with colorful, skin tight body suits.

"So which one do you like?" Harry asked me.

I looked around for a little until a dark red, full body suit caught my eye. It was simple: with only the suit and nothing around the waist, but it was perfect.

"That one." I immediately whispered under my breath.

"That one?" Harry asked me.

"Yes. It's perfect." I smiled up at him.

"Okay." He did a few things that I had no idea he could do and the suit was released into his arms. He placed it into my arms and I carried it up to my suitcase.

The next morning the whole group had gathered in front of the gate. Logan was there.

I don't think he was supposed to come. Oh well.

Now my adventure has begun. And I'm so excited.
