The FBI had spent days investigating the scene of the destroyed extremist camp and had come up empty. They knew people who had better technology and ways of investigation and had sent people out to ask for the assistance. They had tapped this resource several times over the years and after the bombing at the inauguration had cleared the school of any wrong doing almost immediately. They had asked if they knew the whereabouts of Skylar England as she was a person interest but when those leads came up empty they dropped looking for her.
The were currently waiting to be seen by the headmaster of the school. He was a pleasant person and had dealt with federal authorities on several occasion when it came to ensuring his students weren't implicated in crimes which would have pointed a finger back at a mutant. The men sent weren't uncomfortable as they saw kids and teens some regular looking and some with obvious mutations running about the school and grounds.
A young woman at one point walked up to the a woman with them and asked if her grandmother was ok and if she wasn't then perhaps she should ask the headmaster if their doctor could look at her grandmother. The female FBI agent was surprised and the guy just chuckled about having come here. He liked it here himself because well it was just kids who were learning about themselves and how to use what they were given.

Xavier was told there was FBI waiting to see him. He had watched the news and could only guess what this was about. In fact he had been thinking about the fallout and if there was anything that could be done to stop what could be future violence. The people were extremist and did need to be stopped, however what happened would most likely make things worse. It was getting harder and harder to try and create a world in which co-existence was possible. He had heard from Lawrence about Skye as Gabriella visited recently rather distraught. He overheard Gabriella sobbing about Skye's death. He knew the one person there would could help her was her brother Lawrence, so Xavier left her to it. Charles floated on his wheelchair now ready to speak to the authorities. He probed the surface of the woman's mind. It was confirmed that she wasn't lying, and she was FBI and she was looking for Skylar England. He sighed looking at the young woman "You are here about the destroyed camp. Let us talk in my office..." He led the agent to his office and had her shut the door. "I have watched the news closely and share your fears about the fallout of what happened. What is it you would like to know? Is there something you think we could do to help prevent mutant violence?" He asked not wanting to give away he already knew they were looking for Skye. He was still thinking about if he should be the ones to tell the FBI of Skye's death or not. He did not know the circumstances of what happened and though he would work with the FBI he wasn't going to offer information that would harm any other mutants, no matter if they had a different philosophy. Not if they were defending themselves.

The male agent smiled and followed his partner in to Charles office and decided since she was a bit tense about being here he would take the lead. This wasn’t a follow up to the inauguration ad they were the agents in charge of that investigation.
“No sir, it’s not about the inauguration. This is about the news story which I’m sure you’ve been keeping track of. My partner wants to say it was Skylar England and her compatriots but this doesn’t even have their MO on it.”
The woman seemed annoyed and had an outburst. She was mad about things that transpired.
“You can’t say this wasn’t those people!”
The man held up his hand to quiet her and gave her a stern look.
“Please keep your opinion of the situation to yourself. Let’s deal with the facts. The fact is that no apparent shell casing does point to people with powers but had this been Skylar England and her group we’d have fingerprints, shoe prints, fiber, and other evidence that would lead us to the person or persons responsible.”
He sighed as he produced the folder from his briefcase and laid out the photos. Each one showing a dead person with a precision hole in their chests or missing a portion of their head. All the photos showed it was either an extremely powerful weapon or a mutant power.
“Lab tests haven’t come back yet but I’m sure you can confirm these aren’t mutant powers. That this is something else.”
His partner looked at him like he was made of evil but so far he hadn’t been wrong about this and she hated to admit it. She wanted it to be Skylar England and mutants.

Charles looked to the male agent "I would have to agree with your partner. It's not they aren't careful they just don't care to be. They don't think they should have to be. When they hurt others, they feel justified " Xavier said thoughtfully. "So this wouldn't be normal for any of them. It isn't public and it wouldn't serve any purpose to further their cause. As much as I disagree with them, I will say they don't take any actions they don't feel will serve their purposes. They are angry and frustrated but they are not mindless killers." he looked at all the photos while he spoke. "Yes I can confirm these aren't mutant powers, or at least not any from the brotherhood. It looks almost like it came from sort of laser weapon. In that case you wouldn't find shells and that would be a very powerful weapon. And lasers can almost certainly make the type of precision marks. What do you know about where and how this happened?" He asked looking up from the pictures. He knew there was most likely research on laser weapons and applications. After all there was already laser eye surgery and lasers were being used for other surgical procedures. It wouldn't be a stretch for the miliary, albeit a group of extremists, to create such a weapon and blame it on mutants.

The FBI agents nodded at his assessment of photos and while they still didn’t have the forensics to back it had to be energy weapons. That in itself was disturbing and unsettling. The male agent nodded and was happy that the Brotherhood of Mutsnts had been ruled out. The investigation of the inauguration showed that it was bomb and not mutant powers which caused the explosion and while it was chaos it wasn’t instigated by them.
“Thank you sir. You feedback has been most informative. I was worried we were looking for something along the lines of gifted people. This here is far more disturbing. We’ll see ourselves out.”
He took a card out of his wallet and placed it in Charles’ desk.
“If you think of anything else please call us. We would appreciate any insights you may have about this.”
He motioned his partner to the door and followed in her wake.

Xavier nodded to the man. They didn't tell him any more about the attack, but he knew that was on purpose. Maybe not something sinister but certainly something classified, and secret was going on. It did make him wonder what they were hiding and why. Perhaps they had a reason to keep that secret. "I will let you know. And do not hesitate to call on me if you have any more questions." He said as the agents left.
