Chapter Seventy-three(73)

"If you're happy and you know it, clap your hands!!" James shouted and listened intently

"Ha!! I'm not falling for it again" a small voice replied from one of the rooms and immediately James started laughing

[James you have an incoming call] Paris said as a hologram appeared above the Motherbox

"Answer it!" James said after seeing who the caller was.

"Hello dear, what are you doing?" James's Mother asked as soon as the call was answered

"Playing hide and seek with Cassy…. And I got you!" James shouted as he grabbed the girl who was hiding under a bed

"Hahaha, you cheated" Cassy said

"Okay, sshhh, Mom is calling" James said pointing to the hologram

"It's light aunty" Cassy said as she reached out to grab the hologram

"Hello Cassy, how are doing" Miss Anna asked

"I'm fine, James is cheating" Cassy complained

"Don't worry, aunty will get justice for you okay?" Miss Anna said and Cassy smiled

"Okay"

"James, there are some people here that need your help, can you come to my office soon"

"Okay, we're coming" James answered

"Good, see you soon" Miss Anna said and the call was disconnected

"Okay Cassy lets go" James said as he carried the girl and they left the apartment.

The office in question was just a building away and was easy to access considering that the towers around here were connected through some means or the other. In fact with just how large these towers were, it wouldn't wrong to say that a person could spend there entire lifetime in these towers without leaving and yet not miss out on anything as the towers had everything from supermarkets to barbershops etc, yes most of the towers were still empty but it was a bit manageable. Half an hour later, James and Cassy were standing in front of Miss Anna's office.

Knock knock

"Come in" She called out from inside the office and James opened the door

"Aunty!!" Cassy screamed as she ran into the office ignoring the three other people in the room as she ran to meet Miss Anna who gladly picked her up and sat her down on her lap

"Mom?" James asked as he entered the room awkwardly, he didn't need that much introduction to know who these people were.

He already looked them up a long time ago so he knew quite a bit about them in this life and way more from the comics and wiki book but he was still surprised to see them here. In fact if there was anyone James was expecting, it was the Ancient one and his/her Master's of the Mystic arts but seeing these three was just unexpected.

"You're here, Everyone this is my son James and James, this is Mrs Moira Mactaggart, and these two are her associates, Professor Charles Xavier and Dr Henry McCoy" Miss Anna introduced

"Hi!" James greeted as he stretched out his hand to the professor who was directly in front of him

"It is nice to meet you, I never thought you would be this young" Charles said and you could hear the genuine surprise in his voice

"Young?.... I'm 14 to be 15 in two more months" James defended his age, he understood what he meant but his age was still a soft spot for him.
