Capítulo 63: The Sentinels
As Logan made his daring escape, Alex's trio found themselves at Xavier Manor on the outskirts of New York.
"Charles, did you really open a school?" Alex inquired, surprised by the lively scene unfolding before them.
Upon arriving at "Xavier Manor," they were greeted by the sight of children joyfully running around the estate, their laughter filling the air. With his alterations to the plot, Alex ensured that Charles did not face the challenges of hemiplegia, did not descend into despair, and did not abandon himself.
"Welcome back, my friend! What brings you to my manor today?" Charles emerged from the building with a warm smile, standing at the gate and extending a friendly wave.
"Long time no see, Charles!" Alex greeted him warmly, exchanging a friendly gesture with Charles.
Alex admired the school: "Your school is impressive!"
"It's a pleasure to see you all," Charles responded, delighted by the unexpected visit.
"I still have some wine in my manor. You haven't graced us with your presence in years. I'm usually the one visiting you," Alex teased, his tone light.
"Apologies, my friend. It's quite a task looking after these children. It requires a considerable effort," Charles explained, gesturing toward the playing kids.
Glancing at Eric, Charles sighed faintly, "It's good to meet again, old friend."
"Yeah, we finally reunite, but unfortunately... the news we bring isn't pleasant," Eric conveyed, shaking his head.
"Charles, war is on the horizon. Humans have developed weapons specifically targeting us. They're gearing up to attack us!"
"Weapons against us?" Charles summoned Hank and Sunmers as they moved to the living room.
As Eric shared the unsettling news, the atmosphere grew tense, and the expressions on everyone's faces turned grim.
"Trisk Industries? Mutant detectors? Sentinels defense plan?" Charles's face mirrored the concern, matching the gravity of the situation.
"This is the information Alex uncovered using his psychic abilities," Eric pointed to the materials on the table, his expression serious.
"Charles, take a look for yourself. Verify if what I'm saying is true. Brothers, the war has begun! It's a planned extermination operation targeting us by mankind!"
"This is just a plan, not that serious!" Charles exhaled deeply, trying to calm the tense atmosphere. "The Sentinels plan, apart from the Mutant detector, has not been set in motion."
"Charles, you've limited your psychic reach; you haven't seen the whole truth," Alex retorted, his expression turning icy.
He pointed his finger at his head, a grim revelation on his face. "Charles, do you know what I witnessed? Trisk Industries they've snatched numerous Mutants. They're conducting experiments on them! We've lost many brothers, innocent souls killed by their hands!"
"More of our allies will perish at their hands in the future!"
Eric abruptly stood up, his anger boiling as he shouted, "Charles, can you fathom the horror when I heard about Mutant experiments? These brothers and sisters, seeking only a peaceful life, were targeted and murdered just for being Mutant! Just because they're Mutant!"
"We demand justice! The war has begun, Charles!"
With a raised arm and a clenched fist, Eric unleashed his fury.
"Eric, I've encountered both benevolent humans and malevolent Mutants. Trisk only represents himself, not the entirety of humanity!" Charles countered, shaking his head. "I don't endorse a war, but I will end Trisk. The malevolence of Trisk must be met with punishment!"
"Charles, when human soldiers stormed Xavier Manor, I hope you can maintain that smile of yours," Eric snorted heavily. "I'm here to clarify; I never intended to join forces with you. I'll convey to Trisk in my own way that harming Mutants is the gravest mistake of his life!"
Eric angrily glanced at Charles with a scowl before turning on his heel and storming out.
"Do you always have to start a fight when you see each other?" Raven sighed, shaking her head in exasperation. "Charles, advocating for peaceful coexistence with humans is one thing, but can you make them see things your way?"
"I will," Charles asserted, his expression unwavering. "I will make humans embrace Mutants."
"Humph!" Raven snorted, reclining on the sofa, her discontent evident.
Charles turned to Alex, seeking his opinion. "Alex, what's your take on this?"
"In the eyes of the neutral, if you leave me be, I'll do the same. But cross me, and I'll make sure you regret it," Alex replied nonchalantly.
"Whether Trisk represents an individual or the entire human race, using us as experiments and causing their deaths is unacceptable. I'll make them understand the consequences."
"I aimed to provide us with a stable home," Charles concluded, setting the tone for his mission.
