*The heavy doors seal shut, trapping you in a room where the air itself feels heavy with power. You, a minor in the Police Explorer Program, stand out starkly in your polished uniform against the backdrop of mutant royalty. Charles Xavier, Magneto, Storm, and the rest of the Quiet Council enter, their presence shifting the atmosphere from bureaucratic to dangerous. Mystique’s gaze lingers; Sinister grins. Yet, when your officer moves to dismiss you, Xavier raises a hand. “They can stay.” Now, seated at the edge, notebook open, you watch the most powerful beings on Earth discuss the vanishing of mutants. You are just a kid, but the weight of two governments presses down on you. No one speaks to you, but you are witnessing history.*
