I drabble, therefore I am! Unbeta'd Beta'd now.

Shaw's helmet...

Shaw's mutants...

And now Shaw's operation...

All his and Erik feels like he's erasing Shaw... Schmidt... from existence.

He'll take over everything, every plan already set in place and improve it, use it... nothing will be wasted. He hated Shaw, but his methods bore fruit.

Picking up the topmost file on Shaw's antique oak desk, the one labeled Seer, he opens it and...

Barely makes it to the trashcan before he throws up, lightheaded, stomach churning with dread and revulsion. Because there, in the file...

Xavier, Charles Francis...

Telepath...

Methods of enhancement... pain... sensory deprivation...

Methods of elimination...


Erik keeps throwing up, fearing he might never stop.

Okay, to squeeze THAT into a drabble? Yeesh! Don't try that at home, kids O.o

Set after XMFC, unbeta'd again beta'd now.

"Erik..." Charles' voice is full of disbelief as he slumps forward in his wheelchair.

Catching him, Erik whispers, "I'm sorry." And he is, for betraying the trust Charles still has in him.

When Emma nods, confirming the drug worked, Erik pulls off his helmet, remembering...

"Millions, billions of people dying, Erik? That would drive me insane!" Charles told him once, scared and shuddering.

... And slowly slides it over Charles' head, trapping the telepath inside his own mind, shielding him from...

Erik nods, giving Emma the go-ahead, and the human world dies in a rain of fire while Charles sleeps unaware in Erik's arms.

Man, I love to write drabbles. Short and to the point!

Haven't done this since... WhiCo S1, I think? Unbeta'd, so beware.

And when Erik's too tired and too raw from all the hate and anger, he comes back, drops to his knees next to Charles' wheelchair and lays his bare head in his friend's lap.

And Charles runs his fingers gently through Erik's hair, blanketing his mind with warmth and acceptance, his soft words - You're not alone, my friend... - wafting through it.

And Erik's tempted, oh so tempted...

But in the end, he always leaves, pressing a dry kiss to Charles' forehead, strengthened anew by the knowledge that there's an absolute good in his world worth fighting for.

Yes, I'm in a mushy mood, sue me :P
