'We were very close once, but that was before the nasty incident on my tenth birthday ' he continued.

X2 was not only aware of the story, but had played a vital part in it.

Which he particularly didn't want to be broadcast.

'So we're off to Preston!' said Raymond... Rushing off to start the Ray-Mobile...

"yippee" said the others and went into the raymobile with him.
