Chapter 539: Gathering

"Jean, do you really feel a connection with this bird?" Charles couldn't help but ask her.

"I don't know what it is, Professor but I feel I have seen this bird before. Maybe in my dreams... I don't remember." Jean said as she couldn't explain if this was really a connection between her and the bird.

John could easily see that they didn't believe his words. Though Charles might be more on the believing side, Erik definitely didn't believe him yet, like a typical paranoid. But it didn't matter. He would be a believer soon.

"Let's leave the bird aside. What do you want to do?" John asked Erik.

"I want to gather all the people in the brotherhood here and launch an attack at the White House. We need to make them pay and release all the mutants that they had held for experimentation." Erik said as he clenched his fist.

John nodded his head as that would be the easiest method to take down the Sentinels.

"Call all the X-men. I think they need to join in this too." John said.

"You know of X-men too." Charles asked.

"I know you have many questions. But for now let's go and attend the meeting and all your questions and doubts will be answered."

Later they all appeared in a big classroom. Since there were too many people including the brotherhood and the X-men they needed a larger space so the regular meeting place proved to be too small. As they all gathered at the place, faces of all the mutants were a little bit tense.

This was because all these years, they had been fighting against each other and though they all understood that they needed to be together and fight the Sentinels, old grudges didn't just wash away.

Charles, John and Erik were the last to enter the room and all the mutants present in the room were seated.

"I know that some of you are confused about what happened and some even more puzzled by the fact about how you are brought here. Well, I am here to answer that. This is John Jameson. A mage. Yes, you heard it right. A magician. Not just a hand trick magician but a mage with actual magical powers. And no, it's not mutant X-gene. John Jameson here doesn't even belong to ...."

Charles was the first to speak up and he informed them about what had happened in the past few days and why they had been brought here without taking their consent. Some of the X-men knew what was going on from the very beginning but not all and the mutants of brotherhood had no idea that such a major thing had taken place when their leader was gone.

"So this guy here can help us solve the Sentinel problem?" Logan was the first to ask when Charles finished answering the question. Before Charles could answer John said

"Sentinels are not really a problem. Rather it shouldn't have been a problem. It is the action, or I should say the inaction of the mutants that had led to all of this. You all have been too passive all your life and none of you ever realised the full potential of X-gene."
