Sniper hung his head as Rowan appeared. He recognized her from his assault on the Mansion. She did not know that he had reformed his ways, so he could not blame her for being angry.<br/>"I'm sorry..." he said.<br/>He knew it would do no good, though. He would have to earn his forgiveness, and that was fine with him.<br/><br/>He gently hugged Holly.<br/>"You'll be okay. We'll be together again soon."<br/>He ran his hand through her hair and kissed her cheek. Then, thinking better of it, he kissed her lips.<br/>From there, he and Lance followed Storm down the hallway. She showed him to a door, and he stepped inside.<br/><br/>The man they saw was not what he expected. He expected the head of this place to be a muscular young man who looked like he could tear down the world. Instead, it was a bald, middle-aged man in a wheel chair. This was the Professor Xavier he had heard so much about? However, not wishing to offend the man, he kept his face and body language neutral. He took a seat across from him.<br/><br/>"Professor Xavier, my name is Terrence Young, codename Sniper. The young man behind me is Lance Alvers, codename Avalanche. We are ex-members of the Brotherhood of Evil Mutants who broke our ties with Magneto. I have come to ask for forgiveness, and to ask for your help."<br/>He leaned back and allowed the Professor time to digest all of this. Lance leaned against the wall and did the same.
