As Charles walks into the kitchen to see the fridge open as a blonde elderly woman wearing red smiled at him with her hands resting on her hips.

"Mother. What are you...I thought you were a burglar." Young Charles said while dropping his baseball bat to his side.

"I didn't mean to scare you, darling. I was getting a snack. Go back to bed." Sharon the boy's mother said to him with a British accent.

Her saying this to Charles make him go quite and just stares at his 'mother'

"What's the matter? Go back to bed." She said trying to get him to leave but he remains silent.

"I'll make you a hot chocolate." The boy's mother said while putting her hands on her hands slightly bending over to reach his height but Charles just stares at her than to a picture of them before looking at her.

"Who are you? And what have you done with my mother?" Charles said making his mother stif up as he used his powers to speak in her mind.

"My mother has never set foot in this kitchen in her life. And she certainly never made me a hot chocolate, unless you count ordering the maid to do it." Charles voice echoed in the woman's mind causing her to move back holding her head as Charles chuckled softly.

His mother looks back to him in fear but her body slowly morphs into a young boy with beautiful red skinned with clothes with lots of scars on his face and black hair.

"You're not scared of me?" A young red skinned boy asked him with a tone of confusion.

"I always believed I couldn't be the only one in the world. The only person who was...different. And here you are. Charles Xavier." Charles said to him happily he is not alone anymore as he holds his hand to him.

"Erik." He said shaking his hand.

"You're hunger and alone. Take whatever you want. We've got lots of food. You don't have to steal. In fact, you never have to steal again." Charles said while offering his home to Erik, as Erik chuckles happily.
