Chapter 16: Chapter 15
The team had just wrapped up what could only be described as the most intense training session since... well, ever. Harry couldn't help but think of it as something that should have been on pay-per-view. There were sparks of magic flying, Logan grunting like someone was making him watch a slow-motion action movie (which, considering his personality, was probably a fate worse than death), and the team as a whole looking like they'd just been through a blender. But somehow, they'd come out of it more powerful than ever. Well, mostly ever—they were definitely more powerful than when they started.
Afterward, everyone reconvened in Professor Xavier's office. If you've never been inside a room that somehow managed to feel both futuristic and cozy at the same time, this was it. The place had all the high-tech stuff you'd expect from a world-renowned telepath, but there were comfy chairs scattered around like they were made for lounging and watching Netflix.
Professor Xavier, looking as serious as a man who could read your mind without even breaking a sweat, called the meeting to order. "Thanks for gathering. Today was a significant step in understanding Harry and Jean's new powers. Hank, why don't you kick things off?"
Hank McCoy, aka Beast, adjusted his glasses like he was about to dissect a scientific anomaly. If glasses had a "I'm too smart for my own good" vibe, Hank's were giving off a supersonic nerd signal. "Absolutely, Charles," he said, clearing his throat in that smooth, professor-y voice. "We've witnessed some pretty remarkable upgrades in Harry's abilities. First, his healing factor—well, it's not just fast. It's like he's got an automatic self-repair button. His body anticipates injuries and just... fixes them. It's almost like having a preemptive 'don't even bother' system."
Harry, sitting with a half-sarcastic grin and trying not to sound too smug, nodded. "It's like my body is on autopilot for pain. Doesn't even wait for the injury to happen—just heals it before I have a chance to feel it."
Hank raised an eyebrow, clearly impressed. "Exactly. But here's the kicker: his magical powers? Amplified. It's almost like the Phoenix Force is calibrating Harry's magic to perfection, fine-tuning it to a frequency that's off the charts."
Storm, standing by the window with her arms crossed, added with a serene smile, "Jean, your connection to the Phoenix Force is still growing, but today's results were impressive. You harnessed the power without losing control, which is no small feat. We need to keep working on that balance, though."
Jean, sitting upright, her fiery red hair glowing almost as brightly as her powers, glanced at Harry. The two exchanged an unspoken understanding, a subtle bond forming between them. "I can feel it, Professor," she said quietly, "the power is immense. But Harry... Harry helped me stay grounded. I need to learn to manage it on my own, though. I can't rely on him every time."
Logan, who had been silently standing at the back, his arms crossed and a cigar dangling from his lips, let out a low grunt. "What about Harry's mental state? You know, the Phoenix isn't just a personal trainer for the body. It's a total head trip if you're not careful. Got any signs of that, Chuck?"
Professor Xavier met Harry's gaze, his eyes knowing more than Harry was comfortable with. "I've been keeping an eye on Harry's mental health. So far, no signs of instability. But the Phoenix Force is like walking on a tightrope. It has the power to create and to destroy. We need to remain vigilant."
Harry felt a sudden weight on his chest—vigilant sounded like something he could definitely handle, but walking the tightrope? Yeah, that was a bit much for a teenager who could barely balance on a skateboard. "I've felt... sharper. More focused. But I get it. It's like trying to hold onto a fire without burning your hands. I'm in, though. I'll keep myself in check."
Jean looked at him then, and Harry could have sworn his heart skipped a beat. "We're in this together, Harry. We've got the Phoenix for a reason. We'll figure it out."
Hank looked like he was on the verge of bouncing off the walls. "That's fascinating, Harry! Have you noticed any other developments? Any new, uh, abilities since the Phoenix Force came into play?"
Harry scratched his chin, thinking hard. "Aside from the healing and magic amped up to eleven? I've been getting these... flashes. Like, little bursts of clarity. Almost like I'm seeing things before they happen. It's not every day, but when it happens, it's intense."
Professor Xavier nodded gravely. "That's the Phoenix Force. It's known to grant glimpses of the future, fleeting as they may be. Jean, have you experienced anything similar?"
Jean, her voice thoughtful, nodded. "Yes. Fleeting images of the future. I can sense connections between everything, feel it all around me. It's amazing, but honestly, it's also kind of terrifying."
Storm stepped forward, her usual calm radiating like a gentle storm. She placed a hand on Jean's shoulder. "We'll help you learn to navigate it, Jean. Together, we'll figure it out."
Logan took a deep drag from his cigar and let out a low exhale. "The whole team's behind you. Don't sweat it."
Xavier, who had been quietly observing the exchange, finally spoke up, his voice filled with determination. "We'll continue our sessions, deepening our understanding and control. Your bravery and resilience are commendable. Let's take that energy and channel it into mastering these abilities."
Harry couldn't help but feel a little lighter as the words sunk in. He still wasn't sure exactly what this new chapter in his life would look like, but one thing was clear: he wasn't alone in this. And that made all the difference.
The team might have been eccentric, chaotic, and borderline terrifying at times (especially Logan), but they were his team. And together, they were going to figure out how to tame the Phoenix without going full wildfire.
—
As the team gathered their things and prepared to head out, Harry couldn't shake the nagging feeling that something was a bit off. You know, like when you're about to leave your house and you're 99% sure you forgot something important, but can't quite place what it is? Yeah, that was Harry right now.
"My wand's been overheating," Harry blurted, trying to sound casual but failing miserably. "Like, dangerously hot. I've never had that happen before."
Jean, who was as observant as a hawk on a caffeine binge, perked up instantly. "That's intriguing," she said, her eyes lighting up like a scientist who just found the missing piece to a puzzle. "Maybe it's a side effect of your Phoenix connection? Your magic might be pushing your wand beyond its limits."
Storm, standing next to Jean like the embodiment of calm in a storm (no pun intended), nodded thoughtfully. "That makes sense. The Phoenix Force is ancient and powerful—it might be amplifying your magic in ways that even your wand isn't prepared for." She shot Harry a grin. "Looks like you might need an upgrade."
Harry gave a half-grin, running a hand through his hair. "Great. The one time I don't need an upgrade and here I am, practically burning my wand down to the stick."
"Not a problem," Jean said, flashing him a reassuring smile. "We'll figure something out. If your wand's not cutting it, we can always consider using other magical tools." Her voice was that kind of comforting certainty you only get from someone who could probably move a mountain with their mind if they were bored enough.
Hank, who had been quietly listening with his usual intensity, finally chimed in, his eyes practically glowing with excitement. "You know, Harry, the Phoenix Force might be amplifying your magical abilities, but it could also be transforming your magical core. We should definitely look into this. You could be tapping into a new kind of magic entirely!"
Jean turned to Hank with a sly grin. "What are you suggesting, Hank? Magic 2.0?"
"Exactly!" Hank's voice took on that trademark excitement that made you wonder if he was secretly a mad scientist in his spare time. "This could be a game-changer. We'll need to run some tests, of course. But first, I think we should also check in on Jean's powers. It's possible the Phoenix is awakening abilities in her too."
Jean looked at Harry, a little spark of determination in her eyes. "Actually, now that you mention it, I've been experimenting a bit myself. It's... strange but exhilarating. Since the Phoenix Force came into my life, I've been able to feel a deep connection to magic, almost like I can reach into it and pull it out with ease."
Harry grinned. "So, you've got super-powered magic now too? Sounds like I'm going to have to up my game."
Jean, her smile a mix of playfulness and the same determination that made her a force to be reckoned with, shrugged. "Maybe. But I'm still getting the hang of it. It's like the Phoenix unlocked something in me, something I didn't even know was there."
Logan, who had been silently observing the whole conversation with his typical, no-nonsense attitude, snorted. "I'll tell you what's there, kid," he said, taking a long drag from his cigar. "A lot of power. Don't let it go to your head." He shot a pointed look at Harry. "Both of you. This Phoenix thing's dangerous. And powerful. One wrong move, and it can bite you harder than a grizzly."
Jean arched an eyebrow, clearly not intimidated. "Thanks for the advice, Logan, but I think I've got it under control. Besides, you're always around to keep us in check, right?"
Logan smirked, his eyes gleaming with a bit of that usual Logan attitude. "I'm not your babysitter, Red. But yeah, I've got your back."
Hank nodded, still lost in thought. "Jean, Harry, your combined magical prowess could be a monumental asset. But you'll need time to adjust. Magic and the Phoenix Force... it's not exactly a user manual situation."
Jean's voice was calm, yet laced with a strong determination. "I'll take that time. And I'll take all the help I can get." She glanced at Harry, a flicker of something more in her eyes, maybe gratitude, maybe something else. "With all of you helping me, I'm sure I'll figure this out."
Harry's heart did that thing it did whenever Jean said something so sincere. It was like his chest was a bit too tight for comfort, but not in a bad way. "Yeah, you've got this, Jean. And, hey, if you ever need me to test out some of those new powers of yours, you know where to find me."
Jean gave him that smile—the one that always made Harry feel like he could take on the world, even if it was about to explode. "Deal."
As they made their way toward the training room, Harry's eyes flicked over to Jean, who was now practicing a simple levitation charm on a nearby book. She was focusing intently, her brow furrowed in concentration, but there was a quiet power radiating from her that made Harry feel like they were on the verge of something huge. The uncertainty was still there, but there was also hope.
Together, they could figure this out. They had to.
"Alright, team," Logan called from the back of the group, flicking his cigar to the floor and crushing it beneath his boot. "Let's get to work. No more waiting around for this thing to figure itself out." His usual gruffness was back, but there was something oddly encouraging in his tone.
Jean flashed a grin at Harry before stepping forward. "No more waiting," she echoed, her voice as strong as steel.
And with that, they headed into the training room, ready to face whatever came next—together.
—
The fiery landscape stretched out before them like the set of a sci-fi epic, the air thick with the sort of heat you'd expect from an oven that hasn't been cleaned in centuries. Harry and Jean stood, uncomfortably aware of the intense cosmic forces at play here. You'd think they'd be used to it by now, but nope, they were still adjusting to the fact that the Phoenix Force—essentially a walking (er, flying?) cosmic deity—had decided to take a particular interest in them.
The Phoenix hovered above them, its fiery wings glowing brighter than the lights at a Las Vegas show, and a voice that could melt steel thundered through the air. "Ah, my favorites return. What knowledge do you seek today?" It sounded like the voice of an ancient being who could see your soul, which was both awesome and terrifying.
Jean, doing her best to look like this wasn't the weirdest thing she'd ever done (which it totally was), cleared her throat. "So, um... I've been noticing some, let's say, interesting changes. Magic. I mean, I've always been about telepathy and telekinesis, but now I'm throwing spells like it's nothing. Why is that happening?"
The Phoenix's fiery form shimmered in what could've been a cosmic chuckle. "Jean Grey, when you welcomed me into your being, you didn't just get my power. You got the potential for far more. You unlocked a part of yourself you never even knew existed. The Phoenix Force is a conduit of many kinds of power—magic included. And now, you have access to it."
Jean's eyes went wide like a cartoon character. "Wait, magic was always there? It just needed a cosmic kick in the pants to get it going?"
The Phoenix's wings fluttered dramatically, making the whole sky ripple with heat. "Exactly. But remember, magic, like all power, is not to be wielded recklessly. Balance is key. Your abilities will evolve, but control is everything."
Harry, still holding his wand like it was a time bomb waiting to go off, finally decided to speak up. "Okay, I've got a question. My wand's been, well, overheating. It's like it's on fire every time I use it. Is that supposed to happen when you, uh, connect with me?" His voice was a little more nervous than he wanted it to be, but honestly, if your wand was basically turning into a magical oven, you'd be concerned too.
The Phoenix's burning eyes turned to Harry, and if it could've raised an eyebrow, it probably would've. "Ah, Harry Potter. You are far more than you know. Your wand channels your magic, but with my essence flowing through you, your power has been amplified. Your wand is struggling to keep up. It was designed for a different kind of magic."
Harry winced. "So, my wand's... what? Too weak for my upgraded abilities?"
The Phoenix's flames flared in what might've been a smirk. "Yes. The magic you now wield requires a focus—something strong enough to handle the surge of energy. Your wand, good as it is, is a bit... outdated. But worry not. We can fix that."
Jean looked up, intrigued. "Fix it how?"
With a flourish that would make a magician jealous, the Phoenix conjured two dazzling shards of dark pink gemstone from the air. The crystals sparkled like a million sunsets caught in one place. "These," the Phoenix declared, "are fragments of the M'Kraan Crystal. They are among the strongest and most stable sources of power in the universe. Perfect for crafting wands capable of handling the magic you now possess."
Jean and Harry exchanged a look—one that spoke volumes. This was real. This was happening.
Jean's hand shot out like she couldn't resist, grabbing one of the crystals with a grin so wide, it practically lit up the whole fiery realm. "This is incredible. We can make new wands with this? I mean, this is next-level magic stuff."
Harry took the other crystal, his fingers brushing against hers for the briefest moment. It was just a touch, but it felt like a spark—literally, considering where they were. "Yeah, I think we can work with this. New wands. And hopefully, no more spontaneously combusting while we're trying to cast a simple charm."
The Phoenix's wings flared dramatically, as if giving its cosmic approval. "Remember, you hold the M'Kraan in your hands. Treat these shards with respect, and they will serve you well."
Before they could say another word, the fiery realm around them began to fade, dissolving like smoke in the wind.
They blinked, and suddenly, they were back in the medical wing of Xavier's Mansion, surrounded by the pristine white walls and the soft beeping of medical machines—a stark contrast to the cosmic madness they'd just left behind. Harry sat up quickly, rubbing his eyes as though he could shake off the surreal experience.
"Well," Harry muttered, "that was, uh, definitely something. Wand upgrades, here we come."
Jean, looking a little disoriented but definitely more excited than she'd been before, managed a smile. "Yeah. And maybe, you know, we can figure out this whole magic thing together? If you're up for it, that is."
Harry's cheeks turned a bit pink—like the shade of his wand just before it went into meltdown mode. "Yeah, I'd like that. A lot."
And just like that, despite all the cosmic chaos and the flaming wings of the Phoenix, the world felt a little smaller, a little more manageable. With new wands on the way and their shared journey ahead, Harry and Jean weren't just unlocking magic—they were unlocking something even more important: each other.
—
When Harry and Jean finally woke up, they were greeted by what could only be described as a family reunion—except it was awkward, a little crowded, and probably not the kind where you'd pass around the potato salad. There was Professor Xavier, Ororo, Logan, Hank, Sirius Black (whose grin was a little too wide for someone who had just been in Vegas), Andromeda Tonks, Nymphadora Tonks (who'd somehow managed to color her hair a very on-brand shade of "contemplative purple"), and, of course, Albus Dumbledore, who looked like he'd just stepped out of a magical retirement home with an impressive collection of cosmic knowledge to share.
Sirius, who always seemed to have that "I'm about to make a joke, and it's probably going to be a little inappropriate" vibe, was the first to break the silence. "Harry, Jean! You're up! I was starting to think you'd found a new hobby in sleeping through important stuff."
Jean, looking half-dazed but still managing to hold up the M'Kraan Crystal like it was the last slice of pizza at a party, gave a small, slightly embarrassed smile. "I think we've been through some stuff," she said, her voice a little wobbly. "I mean, the Phoenix showed up. Again."
Harry, still processing the whole "cosmic entity hanging out in your head" thing, just nodded. "Yeah, that happened. And it gave us these," he said, gesturing to the glowing shard Jean was holding. He tried not to think too hard about how everyone was staring at them like they were the last two contestants in a reality show about magical artifacts.
Dumbledore, ever the connoisseur of cosmic drama, twinkled his eyes in that "I know something you don't" way that only he could pull off. "Ah, the M'Kraan Crystals. Fascinating artifacts," he mused, as though casually mentioning the Holy Grail or Excalibur like they were things you picked up at a flea market. "They're known for their immense power, and, as always, must be handled with great care."
The room fell silent as everyone tried to process this new bit of mind-bending information. It was like when someone dropped a bombshell at dinner, and no one knew whether to act casual or freak out. Sirius, ever the optimist (or the guy who was about to turn everything into a joke), broke the tension. "What are M'Kraan Crystals? Is it like the stuff you find in weird 80s sci-fi movies? Like, is this a 'Hitchhiker's Guide' kind of deal?"
Dumbledore stroked his beard—because, honestly, who wouldn't stroke their beard in a situation like this? "These crystals, Sirius, are not of this world. They're linked to cosmic forces—power beyond what we can fully understand. Even the most brilliant minds on Earth have barely scratched the surface."
Hank, the walking encyclopedia of the X-Men, adjusted his glasses, squinting at the crystals. "So, no earthly equivalents? How do they even work?"
Dumbledore shook his head, clearly enjoying the moment of intellectual superiority. "No, Hank. These crystals are linked to the Phoenix Force. They come from a place far beyond our comprehension. Even I, in all my wisdom, know only a fraction of their potential."
Tonks, who by this point had turned her hair a shade of "I'm Definitely Thinking About This," peered at the shards like they were going to jump up and bite her. "So, these crystals help with channeling powers, right? But, uh, what about wands?"
Jean nodded, trying to look like she definitely knew what was going on. "The Phoenix said we don't need wands for magic. But, like, they help us focus and channel it. These crystals are supposed to help us make new wands—ones that can handle our, uh, upgraded powers."
Logan, who looked like he was about two seconds away from biting someone's head off (but in a charming way, obviously), crossed his arms. "New wands. What, more training?"
"Exactly," Professor Xavier agreed, nodding thoughtfully. "Harry and Jean's powers have reached a new level. We'll need to help them harness that energy before things get... messy."
Andromeda, looking every bit the concerned but fiercely protective mother figure, addressed them both with a mix of empathy and pragmatism. "Whatever you need, you just ask. We're all in this together."
"Yeah, don't go thinking you're alone in this," Sirius added with a wink. "We'll make sure you're ready for the next big thing. But first, I need to know... How do you feel about pizza?" His grin suggested it was probably more important than the cosmic power thing.
Dumbledore cleared his throat, redirecting the conversation with the kind of air only a wizard of his caliber could muster. "Jean—if you're willing, I'd like to extend an invitation to Hogwarts. Jean, if you pass the exams for the first two years, you can join us."
Jean's eyes lit up, her surprise barely contained. "Really? I can study magic at Hogwarts?"
Dumbledore smiled warmly, the kind of smile that made you feel like you'd just won the lottery. "Indeed, Jean. With Harry, Susan, and the rest of the team's help, I have no doubt you'll succeed."
Harry, grinning like he'd just found out he was actually the Chosen One of every magical prophecy ever made, nodded enthusiastically. "We've got you covered, Jean. You're gonna be a great witch."
Susan, standing a little too close for comfort (because someone had been staring a little too long at Harry), gave an awkward, overly-enthusiastic nod. "Totally. We'll make sure you pass with flying colors!"
Jean, now officially looking like she had her whole life ahead of her, gave a resolute smile. "Thanks, everyone. I won't let you down."
The room was buzzing with excitement, promises of training, and plans for wands—until Susan quietly, almost imperceptibly, sighed to herself. Watching the obvious chemistry between Harry and Jean, she couldn't help but feel like she was the third wheel in a romance that was about to start writing its own love story. But hey, no big deal. She'd just be supportive... probably from the sidelines.
—
The medical wing was quiet. Like, way too quiet for a place that was supposed to be a "recovery room." The air had that musty bookish vibe—like someone had thrown a bunch of textbooks and parchment at a wall and the only thing that stuck was magic. Jean, Harry, and Susan were crammed together at a table, their pile of study materials so large it looked like someone was prepping for a magic exam that would take a century to complete. And despite the academic vibe, the tension in the room was... well, not academic.
"So," Jean broke the silence, twirling a quill between her fingers like she was about to drop a major bombshell. "What's the game plan here, people?"
Harry and Susan exchanged a glance. You know, that look. The one that screams, We're both thinking the same thing, but neither of us wants to say it out loud. Because—spoiler alert—things were definitely getting a little... awkward. You could practically see the teenage crushes swirling around the room like a confused Quidditch match.
Harry rubbed his temple, trying to keep his cool. "Alright, first things first. We're gonna go over everything you need for your exams. Charms, Potions, Transfiguration... We'll get you casting spells like Hermione Granger after one too many cups of coffee."
Susan leaned in, a grin tugging at the corners of her mouth, obviously more excited about Jean's presence than the textbooks. "Potions, Herbology, you name it. We'll break it down, step by step. You're going to be smashing this exam in no time."
Jean's smile lit up the room, the kind that could probably power the entire school if you plugged it in. It was like her energy was contagious, and not just because she was glowing with the excitement of learning magic—okay, maybe a little. "Sounds like a plan," she said, giving Harry that look that made his heart do that weird thing. You know, the one where it felt like it was both jumping out of his chest and doing the Macarena at the same time. Yeah, that one. "Let's do this."
And just like that, they were diving into study mode. Quills scribbled, parchment rustled, and Jean seemed to be absorbing every bit of information like a sponge—if that sponge could control fire and move stuff with her mind. Harry, on the other hand, tried really hard not to sneak glances at her every five seconds. Their eyes met, and it was the kind of look where you're both thinking, I swear, I'm just trying to focus on the textbook, but all I can think about is you. It was so awkward, and yet, so not awkward. In fact, it was so full of tension, you could've sliced it with a butter knife and called it a salad.
Susan—who was sitting just a little too close to Harry for her own comfort—tried not to overthink the whole situation, but every time Harry and Jean exchanged looks, she felt like a very third-wheelish third wheel in a very crowded car. It was hard to concentrate when the air felt like it was about to combust from all the tension. Not that she was jealous—no, no, she was totally fine. Just, you know, trying not to picture Harry and Jean doing something that wasn't studying.
"So, uh, Transfiguration, huh?" Susan said, trying to sound casual as she flipped open her book to a random page. "The theory behind turning a teapot into a cat... Pretty straightforward, right?"
Jean grinned, her eyes twinkling. "Oh, totally. Except for the part where the teapot might become a cat with a vendetta against you."
Susan chuckled at that, and Harry, for once, felt like he could breathe. It was easy when they were all just in the zone, you know? Like friends. Like the world was on pause for just a second, and nothing was complicated.
Then there was a loud scratch of a quill against the parchment, followed by Jean muttering under her breath, "How do you turn this danged teapot into a cat again?"
"Maybe just... flick the wand like it's trying to do the Macarena?" Harry offered, his tone light. "One of those 'throw it in the air and hope for the best' situations?"
Jean blinked at him, and for a split second, the air between them felt like a live wire—crackling and humming, full of... something. But, of course, she just grinned. "I'd like to think I'm better at magic than that."
"Oh, definitely," Harry said, leaning back in his chair. "I'd like to think you're better than all of us combined."
It was at that moment that Susan, who had been watching this all unfold from the corner of her eye, gave an exaggerated cough. "Okay, okay. You two can definitely have a competition for who's more charming after we pass our exams, yeah? For now, let's focus on the magic."
Jean and Harry both blinked like they'd just realized they'd gotten way too distracted by the chemistry of their study session, their faces turning a bit pink.
Jean held up her hands in mock surrender. "Alright, alright. I'll get back to the teapot-and-cat transformation." But her smile never quite left her face, and if you squinted, you could see her little heart-shaped eyes sparkling in that way only a certain redhead could pull off.
Susan couldn't help herself. With a grin, she joined in. "You know, in the wizarding world, a teapot becoming a cat is just the beginning. Who knows, next you might be trying to turn a pumpkin into a carriage for a ball."
Jean raised an eyebrow, the smirk still lingering on her lips. "Oh, I could do that. Not like I haven't faced down a telepathic phoenix before."
"I was going to say you were already working on levitating a broom without breaking a sweat," Susan teased, nudging Harry with her elbow. "But hey, I'd pay to see you try turning a pumpkin into a carriage."
Jean chuckled, settling into her spot at the table. "One step at a time, Bones. One step at a time."
And with that, the study session resumed—no more awkward pauses, no more overthinking. Just three friends with their heads buried in books, each quietly navigating their own little corner of this crazy magical world. Whatever came next, at least they'd face it together.
