“How do you mean?” Charles asked, not liking the way Moira looked at him, her brow creased in apology.
“He’s protected. Extremely protected.”
“How extremely protected are we talking about?”
Moira shuffled some papers around and withdrew a thick document, offering it to Charles.
A telepath, a teleporter, and a man who could harness wind. Charles stared at the words. “Ah,” he said.
“Exactly,” Moira said, “otherwise we’d be after him ourselves. He isn’t too difficult to trace. Catastrophy isn’t too far behind Shaw. It’s that he’s-“
“Exceptionally hard to pin down,” Charles finished, frowning at the pages before glancing up to Moira who sat opposite. “And Erik was intent on hunting him down?”
Moira nodded. “I would hazard a guess and say that the only reason Erik ever worked for us was so to get his hands on Shaw. I don’t think he had much success using his own,” she paused, “means.”
“No,” Charles said, “I couldn’t imagine.”
“Then, of course,” he continued after a short pause. “It wouldn’t be wrong to assume that Erik would turn up to wherever Shaw would be?” he said. “So, if we were to find Shaw, we could assume that Erik would be, at least, close by?”
Moira slowly nodded. “Of course,” she said, “it makes perfect sense.”
Charles felt a smile unfurl across his features. “Well,” he said, “in that case, there’s nothing to do but wait.”
