Rogue looked at me as I looked over a notepad, putting down the glowing lump of flesh, "Was that it?"

I nodded, "Yep. That's all. I should have enough information now to get a better understanding of how your power functions. The data does suggest that my theories hold up and that your mutant powerset that allows you to connect to targets, allowing you to draw certain energies from them that allows you to replicate their powers, often depriving them of those energies to the point that they can't sustain their own powers."

Rogue nodded, "So, doc, do you think you can fix me?"

"Well, if nothing else, the mechanism seems similar enough that the external apparatus that we have neem working on to work with other mutants will work to shut down your powers safely, but it's a little too early to say if we can properly debug your power to bring it under your control." I said absently.

Rogue stared at me, "Do you need me to do anything else then?"

"I should have another set of tests ready in a week or so, where I'll see if I can produce something that can interfere with your powers. Ideally, I'd like to create an injectable serum that will mimic the effects of certain inhibitory hormones I found in my other experiments. If that works, I should be able to graft an additional grand into your brain that will passively shut down your powers and only allow them to activate when you wish them to." I offer.

Rogue stared at me, "A week? That's it?"

"Well, it's a week for the first round of tests. The tissue sample you gave me earlier should allow us to test the serum formulations to prevent any surprises, but we will have medics on standby before exposing you to anything that might cause you any problems." Hank reported.

"Are you okay Rogue?" Scott asked.

The goth girl rolled her eyes, "I'm fine. Nothing happened you pansy."

As we packed up, I saw Cyclops wander over to hank and start talking to him.

I just sighed and stashed away the last of the equipment before following Rogue up into the mansion.

When I entered the room, I was set upon by several of the younger mutants.

"You're the alien right?" Asked Kurt.

I sighed, "I'm from Earth, I just happen to have contact with aliens."

The little devil guy nodded, "So, how did you meet the aliens?"

"Well, I found out alien were on earth, and I used magic to go visit them." I say with a smile.

Kurt stared at me for a moment, "Really?"

"Yep." I nodded.

He stared at me a little uneasily, "Magic."

"I could teach you a little if you want," I offered, "or at least put you in touch with somone who can."

He looked a little uneasy, "No, I'm good."

I furrowed my brow for a moment, "Oh yeah, the religious thing. You do you, I guess."

Kurt nodded, "Thanks."

"If I ever meet an exorcist, I'll tell you." I offer.

Kurt shrugged, "Eh, I already know how to do that."

The entire room turned to Kurt who shrugged, "I'm learning how to become a priest, it's part of the job."

I shrugged, "See if you can get in touch with the exorcist squads then, I know that a lot of religious orders know how to do at least some clerical magic for fighting demons, so you might get lucky if your priest knows a guy."

Kurn nodded, "I guess I can ask, though I'm not sure how much I know. It's hard finding a teacher when I look like a demon. My current teacher was actually sent to exorcise me."

I shook my head, "Let me guess, he realised that you weren't a demon and actually listened to you."

"Yes." Kurt said with a shrug.

I nod, "let me ask if I can meet him, there's some research that I've been wanting to do, and, with the suspicions I have on the nature of theugetic magic users, I think he can help me out."

"Father Jensen is fairly open-minded, so I suppose that I could ask him about that." Offered the imp.

I nod, "Do tell me if there's anything at all you want in return."

"He could help you with the fur if you want." Rogue spoke up.

He turned to her, "What do you mean?"

"He's helping me with my power." Rogue said, "He's doing some science stuff to make it so that I don't drain people no more."

"Really?" He asked me.

I shrugged, "It's a little more complicated than that, and I would need to scan you to get a solid idea on that front. Well, that and a tissue sample so that I can test a few things."

"I'll go ask the professor if I can do it then." He said before disappearing in a cloud of sulphurous smoke.

I stared at the smoke, taking a moment to draw it into a vial, "I think his appearance might not just be a cosmetic thing. That doesn't smell like anything on earth."

"What do you mean?" Rogue asked.

I stared at the vial as a glowing golden rope wound out of my coat, "Well, it's not hell, but the dimensional signature of this isn't pleasant. I'll have to speak with somone to see if I can find out more, but I think I'm going to have to see what I can dig up about his dad."

"My dad?" Kurt said as he reappeared. "What do you mean? By the way, the Profesor says that you can scan me if I want."

"Your father, Azazel. I haven't had much reason to look into him, but I believe he abandoned your mother before you were born." I said, "You look like him, except, well, you're blue. And I think he could teleport too."

Kurt stared at me, "My father's a demon."

"I don't think so?" I said as I looked up at the sky, "I think he's a mutant too, I don't know if he calls himself Azazel because of his appearance or if he's one of those really old mutants that have references in history. I know that the Roman Goddess Selene got that name because of a mutant that's still alive now. Don't go looking for her by the way, she's a dick."

"And you know who my mom is." He said.

I nodded, "Mystique actually. My sources are kind of mixed on if she cares about you? I know she did try and save you from an angry mob of villagers when you were a baby, I have conflicting sources on that front, so I'd want to figure things out."

Out of the corner of my eye I saw Rogue stared at Kurt.

I paused for a moment, "So Rogue, My sources are a little mixed on this, but I've heard some rumours that you were brought up by Mystique too?"

Rogue stared at me, "How did you know that?"

"Well, that's interesting!" I said with a smile, "I guess you two have some stuff to talk about then."

Rogue and Kurt looked at each other, "I guess we do."

"If you ever need any help pinning Mystique down, I'm more than willing to help on that front. I just realised that dumping that on you might have been a bit rude, so… if there's anything I can do to make it up to you, just ask."

Kurt looked at me, "No, I asked. I just… wasn't expecting that."

"Well I didn't." Rogue scowled, before her face softened, "Though, I didn't think I had any family around these parts."

"Well, why don't I leave you to catch up. Er… Here's an email that I check whenever I'm on earth, so you can get in touch with me if you need anything." I said.

Kurt took the card, "Umm… sure, I guess."

"Yeah, I need to talk to Kurt now." She said.

I nodded, "Message me if you still want those scans done!" I yelled before heading up to Xavier's office.

"Jon!" He yelped as I walked through the door, "You surprised me!"

I grinned, "So the psionic barriers are working, cool! I was hoping to get some feedback on that."

"It feels kind of strange, Half the time I can't tell that there's anything there but when I look for you it's like I'm running into a window." He said massaging his temples.

"That's cool!" I said, "I'm tuning some tech that I've been now that I've worked out most of the kinks and I hadn't realised that the defensive aspects were that good."

"Don't overestimate yourself, I could break through that if I needed to." He said.

I shrugged, "Mind giving it a poke? I just want to get a bit of feedback."
