Summary: One of these is probably the way Storm met Charles Xavier. It's possible that it matters which one.
"My name is Charles Xavier. I run a school for children like you."
"For kids who get into trouble," she says.
"Well, often that happens, I'm afraid. But what I meant was for children with special abilities like your own."
"Witch school," she says, and laughs a little wildly. "You're a rich white teacher who can talk in my head, and you want to take me to witch school."
He seems to be considering that.
"If you want to think about it that way," he says. "I prefer to call it a school for the gifted."
Ororo encounters Charles Xavier for the first time, in four different ways. Touching and disturbing depending on which universe you're in at the time, and I really like the different character portraits of Storm and Xavier. This is the kind of thing fanfiction is made for.
