Chapter 528: Trust
Chapter 528: Trust
"My dear child, what are you talking about?" Erik said to diffuse the awkwardness which prevailed after her weird question. None of them understood what she meant by that.
"I want to know how many of you are fighters. I will need strong fighters to face him." the girl said.
"Who are you talking about? The mutant who controls antimatter? Rest assured we are capable enough for facing him. But tell me first where and what kind of illegal experiments have been done on you that you have powers now." Charles asked.
"Illegal experiments? What are you talking about? I was born with powers. And we will need a huge army to face him. A small number won't suffice." the girl said.
"Who is this mutant?" Charles asked again.
"Annihilus. He is a conqueror and tyrant from the Negative Zone. We need to stop him and we will have a whole ass army for him." the girl said.
"Negative Zone? What is that? A place in the US?" Scott asked.
The girl looked around dumbfounded. She thought saying the name 'negative zone' would invoke a sense of fear into them, but looking at their faces it meant they were totally ignorant of it.
"Which Earth is this?" the girl asked again.
"What do you mean which Earth? This is our Earth." Logan replied as he still didn't understand what she meant by that during her first words. The girl now was sure that these people were ignorant. Ignorant of the fact that there was a multiverse out there.
She feared more now. When she opened a portal here before going into coma she sensed very vague powers residing in this place. It was because of this reason she opened the portal near the school. She didn't know what she was going to say next would be believable or not to these people, who seemed like they had no idea about the multiverse.
After heaving sigh she finally took the courage and said slowly
"My name is America Chavez. I come from a different Earth. A Utopian Parallel where everything is wonderful and perfect. But our world or rather our universe has been invaded by the army of Annihilus and I am the last one alive from that universe. I was able to escape. But after fighting that being for a long time has made me realise that his hunger for world conquering isn't over and soon he will try to take over all of the multiverse."
She said all these words in one breath and at the end she was breathing heavily. Her injuries have still not healed. The X-men and Erik all looked at her with wide eyes. After hearing such words they didn't know how they should react.
Her seriousness meant whatever she was saying was correct but the things she spoke would make anyone laugh. Multiverse? Utopian Parallel? Her words were enough to send her to Arkham Asylum if it ever existed in their world.
"Girl, do you feel sick? Do you feel sad again? You can take a rest and we will ask you again after you get healed. How about that?" Dr. Reyes said as she felt that the girl was still in trauma and was suffering from hallucinations of her past. Her mind might have put up a fake scenario in her head to make her feel safe and protected later.
"You don't believe me?" Chavez looked at everyone's faces and could the disbelief. She expected that. Out of nowhere if a person came and said about the multiverse, that person would definitely be labeled as a mad person.
She really didn't know how to convince these people who had no idea how powerful their enemies were and who else was coming.
"Girl you need to sleep. We can talk about your past later." Logan said as he started walking out. He was sure her mind was fried. He convinced himself that whatever she was facing and mental trauma was because of human's illegal experiment.
Everybody was disappointed as they started going out. They thought what she said was just hallucinations and she needed more rest to get her mind right.
Everybody!!
Except for Charles Xavier!!
He continued looking her for a second before finally saying
"Whatever she has said is the truth!!"
All stopped right on their tracks hearing this. They looked back at Charles who just continued looking at her without paying any attention to others.
"You believe me? Why? My words must have sounded really absurd to people like you." Chavez asked. She really felt that these people were really ignorant and her words would definitely sound weird to them.
"I believe you because I looked into your mind. Like you we too have powers. Though we might not be multiverse travellers like you, but we do have our own merits."
"Now tell me how do you want us to help?" Charles said as he folded his arms and looked at her with expectations. She might just be the answer to all the problems they had been facing.
