"Charles." Zoe hunched over the wheel of the dune buggy, praying that she looked normal. "Charles, I need you." Blessed are you, Lord our God, ruler of the universe, who rescues us from our adversaries. "Zoe." Charles' face came onto the phone. "Shit, Charles, where the hell have you been? Hodge is here, Albert is virtually complete, I screwed up and blew my cover, and Creed is one creepy-ass mofo." She added the last three words in English, knowing it would piss him off. Blessed are you, Lord our God, Ruler of the Universe, who teaches us to make light of trying situations. "Are you safe?" "Unless by 'safe' you really mean 'still on the island and in full view of the freaking choppers that are looking for me, no, I'm not exactly safe

I think I have information that will be useful to the partners. I'm afraid it will scare them off the case more than help the case. I don't know what to do. No way in hell I'm going to the Archives of Interred Mutants. I'm afraid I'll find every single one of there missing mutants on file there. Dead. Doesn't bode well for our client. I think our best bet is to put her in federal protection. Though she isn't a witness to anything. Wait a second Gwynne. Let's think for a second. The Federal Government is practically useless at this point. Should I protect her myself? It would be nice to share my secret with someone other than a priest. Someone telling you that you're God's gift to humanity isn't very reassuring sometimes. Ok, so how I am going to protect a fellow mutant from capture and genocide? Not like my powers are offensive and powerful. I'll contact Rogue tomorrow and see if she'll come to New York, if she's insane enough to come to New York rather.
