Chapter 139: Chapter 139: Xavier’s School

    ?

    [3rd POV]

    As the Blackbird lowered to the hidden basement of the Mansion, Gwen got to her feet as it landed. The girls followed soon after her as she stretched with a yawn of boredom.

    "So this is the mansion? It''s not bad, although the security is a bit underwhelming" Gwen said as her eyes traveled over the mansion, scanning it in and out, memorizing every face within it, every inch of the mansion itself, and all of its security.

    "You can even see that?" Hank asked in surprise, which was becoming the norm when Gwen was involved.

    "Yep. You guys are using security cameras, motion detectors, and some other stuff, but none of that would do anything to the Brotherhood or a skilled enough Government Organization, like the Pirate and his band of corrupt idiots" Gwen responded before continuing.

    "I could help you upgrade it, if you want. I''ve already got a dozen ways to make this place truly safe for all those kids upstairs" Gwen added, as Hank looked interested.

    "That sounds...ideal. But we would need to speak with our resident engineer and inventor" Hank replied, as he inwardly envisioned the reaction of their resident inventor, to the fact that some 18 year old girl could improve upon the security that he had made for them. The man was quite proud of them, even if they were admittedly underwhelming.

    Walking through the small hanger alongside the team, Artemis couldn''t help but ask a rather valid question "How long did it take you guys to build this place? And where the hell do you get the money for all of this?"

    "It took a few years, as for the funding, we had gotten it from investors, and because the Professor has quite a bit put away, which he used a lot of to build all of this" Hank answered Artemis, who nodded slowly at the response.

    "Are you interested in attending the school, Gwen? As while you already said you don''t wish to be a part of the team, you could be a part of the school" Ororo asked as they walked through the sleek halls of the underground basement of the Mansion. This was where Cerebro was held, as well as various other pieces of technology, like the training area for the X-Men.

    "Hmm? No offense to any of you, but I''m by far the smartest and most knowledgeable person in this room. Going to school would simply be a huge waste of time to me. I''d be better at teaching classes then attending them" Gwen responded with a shake of her head, not even remotely interested in going back to school again.

    Teaching though, didn''t sound too awful. As while she didn''t really like or trust Xavier, she didn''t mind teaching a bunch of Mutant kids more about their powers, and the world at large. She was already going to be teaching certain people that needed it, like Jean.

    "And how smart are you then?" Jean asked as she walked beside her.

    "Well my intelligence can''t be quantified in numeric standards, if that''s what you''re asking. But I guess if you compare me to the most powerful supercomputer you can possibly imagine, it would be like comparing a windows computer from the 90''s, to a quantum supercomputer. Or maybe something beyond that? Not really sure. But I''m the smartest person in the world, if not the universe" Gwen replied with a shrug.

    "Truly? What sort of power do you have to give you so many varying abilities?" Hank asked as they walked towards the elevator that would take them to the main mansion, where all the students stayed.

    "That is a secret" Gwen replied with a grin as they walked into the large elevator, standing all near one another.

    "Would you be interested in such a job? Being a teacher at my school?" Xavier asked, having been silently listening to Gwen the entire time.

    On Gwen''s end, she could feel the power trying to absorb her lifeforce, memories, and powers, but it failed miserably. She had so many defenses and adaption based abilities, that the second it started, it was blocked and adapted to, completely eliminating the threat of Rogue''s power, and making her the only person that could safely touch her at this point.

    "My-My power kills people from my touch" Rogue whispered at the question, pulling her hand back slowly in awe.

    "That...I''m sorry that you''ve had to deal with that" Gwen said softly, as she truly did feel bad for the girl. Rogue was one of her favorite members of the X-Men (Excluding that awful storyline involving Magneto, if you know, you know).

    Looking at the girl who slowly pulled a glove back onto her hand, Gwen smiled as she got an idea, before slowly speaking.

    "Say, do you want to come with us?"

    That''s the end of the chapter!

    A bit of an abrupt end but...I didn''t really know where to end it lol.

    Next chapter will be more interactions with Rogue, Gwen starting the quest she had been

    assigned (Clones = Easy mode) and some other stuff.

    Should Gwen be a part time teacher for the school? I thought it''d be a neat idea and could be

    fun.

    I''ll say now that Xavier in this, while misguided, is NOT evil, just a little dumb. Gwen won''t hate him or anything (not like her dislike for Ozpin due to his tendency to sacrifice children), but she won''t be friends with him.

    You can expect some interactions with some rather important characters, and a visit to New

    York sooner or later, which will involve an interaction with a very important character (to this book), and one that had a VERY sad background in the comics.

    Anyways, have a good day!
