Emma may have took the first hit but she would rarely take a second. Emma was arrogant but with reason. She had grown her telepathic prowess over the years. Her experience allowed her to take on some of the best and come out as a victor. There was very few minds that proved a challenge for the White Queen. Xavier was one of those very few. Emma approached him, taking on her diamond form, making her mind impenetrable.
âOh darling, donât be so ridiculous.â Emma stopped when she was close enough to have his attention. âTo think you would sound like your old friend, Erik. Sorry to tell you darling but you are a couple of years late to start earning your bad boy credit.â Emma let down her diamond form and it took all she had to place mental blocks to shield her from his assault. âNow, donât fight me, Charles. Let Auntie Emma take a peek into that head of yours.â Emma told him, telepathically sinking her manicured nails into his mind.
of course emma would be the one to challenge him, one of the only telepaths with a chance apart from jean. charles, the real charles, would have sighed in relief if he could. but this wasnât him, something else was in control. âemma, if i have to hear you say darling one more time, i may liquify my own mind.â he wanted to get under her skin. âdo you not ever tire of trying to forcefully inflate your own ego? how exhausting it must be.â he could feel the mental shields put up, and didnât fight them. it worked well for him to have her enter his own mind, as what she saw there was easier for him to manipulate. he controlled his own mindscape, bringing her to the scene of genosha destroyed and bodies littered across the floor. âtell me, emma, how powerful you think you are â when you couldnât even protect them?â
