The family rules for being lost in strange places were pretty straightforward. First and foremost, avoid evil geniuses, their minions, and any shadowy castles perched on the jagged peak of a barren mountain. This one she had straight; Violet was pretty sure that Residential Zone 03 did not count as 'the jagged peak of a barren mountain,' so visiting the professor that lived in the zone did not technically violate rule one.

(Long as he remained a professor and not a genius, at least.)

Second, blend in and act normal. This one she'd flubbed pretty good, but since so many people on Sacrosanct had special abilities, she figured that she could avoid a solid grounding if her mom found out. Dad wouldn't care; he'd probably secretly give her a thumbs up before doing the 'parent' thing and grounding her for a week because she'd used her powers.

(Because if Mom found out he'd approved of it, then he'd be even worse trouble than a grounding.)

Either way, it wasn't like she'd done anything noticeable like Dash would've. Violet had kept it strictly to invisibility, tucking her wearable into her boot so that the strange material of her suit would hide it as she made her way. She'd paused a few times to check where she was, to make sure she was on track to see this Charles Xavier that everyone told her to see. It sounded like he knew what was going on, and maybe he could help her out.

Violet made it there without breaking any other cardinal rule, except for maybe breaking and entering. The door wasn't locked, though, so she didn't really break, just enter. She made sure to be invisible as she pushed the door open and squeezed in - then shut it behind her to keep the cold out.

Then she started to look around. It occurred to her that she didn't know what he looked like, but how many people could there be. Hopefully not many, because she was nervous enough about meeting one more person after her adventures on the network the day before.
