Chapter 48

"Oh, Scott!" Jean was horrified when she saw Scott bleeding from his nose and immediately made her way to him.

"Stop" but she was stopped by Cedric

"What is it!?" Jean looked at him angrily, no matter what, she had been with the X-Men for a year and didn't want to see them beaten up, even if it was someone she admired that had beaten them

"You are enabling him to act like an idiot, don't you see what you are doing" Cedric pointed her out as he looked at her caressing the teenage Cyclops as if they are lovers. Though he wouldn't tell , it hurt him a little seeing this act.

"I don't care, come on Scott, let me get you some first aid" she hung his arm over her shoulders and led him away.

"Wait!" but she was stopped by Cedric again, Cedric had that same look on his face.

He began walking, Scott couldn't help but gulp when he saw Cedric coming over,

"What are you gonna do now, Huh, I won't let you hurt him" Jean pushed Scott back and stood in front of Cedric,

"No, I am going to heal him" Cedric decided to Heal Scott, he didn't want to look bad in front of The other members of X-Men, The ones that were sane to a degree

Jean stepped aside, Cedric pulled out his wand and fixed Up the little critter in a moment, this surprised Jean a lot.

"That's magic, right"

"What does it look like to you"

"Magic.."

Cedric would never agree that another reason for him healing the sad bulldog faced little punk was so that Jean and he don't get to have a little alone time

"Alright, we can't let the Ancient One wait, we have got to hurry, there is only a specific period in which we can enter the Sanctum or else it will be too late."

Cedric looked around and asked, "Where is your luggage"

Although Jean had a little dispute, she didn't want to miss her chance at being normal again, so she immediately ran off to get her luggage,

Cedric followed her to her room and help her get her luggage, Scott was left behind, completely fine and under the effects of a paralyzing spell.

Cedric entered her room and found everything to be scattered across the room

"It isn't normally like this," Jean noticed his look and blushed, It seemed whatever Magic was cast upon her by seeing Scott hurt was undone.

"Then is this some kind of new Trend I don't follow" Cedric smirked as he looked at her, Jean could only blush and act like she was busy.

"Since you are going to join us, might as well give you an early gift," Cedric said and handed her a designer bag

"Huh"

" It's a special bag, it can fit in anything, so be fast and meet me outside the mansion in ten minutes"

Cedric showed her how to use it and then used apparition to teleport in front of the mansion.

He met up with Wolverin better known as Logan outside the mansion, where the garage was located, Cedric was a little bit curious about Logan for a while, why did Logan go out of his way to support him when Cedric had shown him no such quality

*Knock knock*

"Come in bub," said Logan, who was working on his beast of a bike.

"Hello"

"Yeah" asked Logan in his own way, Logan was always a no non-sense guy, but also someone you could have fun with if you knew what he wanted

"Bear!" asked Cedric as he took out two mugs from out of nowhere, Specialty of The a Harry Potter world.

The Fire whiskey. A whiskey so fine, it made you spit flame, surely it will find its way into the stomach of a guy like Logan.

Logan looked at the magically appearing mug in The hands of the wizard boy, Logan gave him that name the first time they met.

"Sure" Logan stood up and snatched the mug from Cedrics' hands. He smelled a very fiery taste from the Mug and wanted to give it a try

As soon as he took a sip, Logan felt the Whiskey hitting his body like no other and a surprised expression appeared on his face, his nose felt itchy, the next moment, a stream of flames flew out his nose.

"Haha, I knew you would like it" Cedric laughed as he also took a sip and released a fire, though he looked like dancing dragons.

Fifteen minutes were spent drinking when Jean finally arrived.

Cedric quietly went his way once Logan made him promise to come once every month for a beer night.

Cedric knew he was already on Logan's friend's list and was happy about it, he also stole a couple of hair samples while he was at it, and the guy didn't even feel it.

Cedric took Jean's hands and asked.

"So should we go"

"Yes, I am ready," told Jean as she took a big breath

"Just a heads-up, you might feel like vomiting when we teleport"

"Wha-"

And then they were gone. Unknown to them, a being of old age was inside a lab , located in the north pole, looking at schematics when his watch started beeping, this person had dark brown hairs, a cape that went all the way down to the floor and a nice suit underneath, His eyes had dark circles while his body color was paler then normal, this person was Nathanial Essex, One who was under the control of Apocolypse.

He tapped on his watch and the familiar face of Scott was seen on it, but the only difference was that on the image a red line was going.

It read,"Subject under abnormal stress"

"What have we here, hmmm!?" An unbelievably raspy voice was released from Essex's mouth as he looked at his watch with a smile
