(Ok First I have nothing to do with the X-men People. So This Ain't
Official or Anything So Don't Sue me. I was bored and like to write on
this kinda stuff.)
Rogue woke up quickly the next morning to find all of her friends rushing down the hall. She quickly jumped up and threw on some shoes and quickly rushed to join the now gathering group. As she approached she began to hear rampant chatter.
"Did you see that?"
"Professor isn't going to be happy if he finds out about this.."
Rogue quietly began to work her way through the crowd, and was shocked at what she found creating the disturbance. It was Nate! But what was he up to? She watched his hands flare up over the crowd, as reflections shimmered all over the faces of the crowd.
"Oh my God."
It was the only thing she could gasp out as she watched the shimmering metal entangle to create a pyramid, a sphere, and finally resting on a cube. As the rest of the students clapped emphatically at the sight, Rogue just watched in amazement. She lightly blushed and thought, "He is magnetic. In more than one way."
Almost before she could finish the thought Nate screamed out, grabbing his head, as the once cube now dropped into a pile of clutter in the center of the floor. She watched in horror as Nate fell to his knees screaming out in agony. The world seemed to slow as she watched him, barely noticing the screams for help coming from the students.
(Later that day.)
Rogue sat outside the infirmary, her mind playing over what had happened earlier that day. She began to let her mind wonder over each second, and remember the pain that was plastered on to Nate's face as he fell. A light tear trickled down her cheek.
"Rogue."
She quickly lifted her head and wiped the tear from her face.
"Professor, wha- what happened? Is he going to be ok?"
The Professor had a darkened look on his face. She could not read much in his expression, but knew there was something on the Professor's mind.
"Pro."
She was quickly stopped by Xavier's hand.
"You are wondering what happened aren't you?"
"Well. yes."
She quickly looked down at her feet and began to lightly slide them against the smooth tile. Like a young child being disciplined by her father. She had always been intimidated by the Professor, and did not wish to step out of her place. She looked up, and saw a light smile on his face.
"Child, you will learn someday that you are just as much a part of the team as I am. You have every right to understand what is going on as Logan. Or even Scott. Come with me dear, and I will try to explain."
The Professor began to turn towards the door and motioned her to follow him. As they walked out of the infirmary to the hallway she began to wonder back to Nate, and what it was that had made him just loose control so suddenly. It was absolutely horrifying. The professor lightly sighed as he read the thoughts that came across her mind. He lightly thought to himself, "Child, unless something drastic happens you have no comprehension of horrifying." They entered into Xavier's study, and felt the eyes of Logan and Scott watch them cross the room. Letting out a deep breath the Professor began,
"So I guess everyone had a chance to watch the spectacle earlier today."
Scott was the first to speak up, "Professor what was that? What made him loose control?"
Logan was right behind of course, "Ya, I have never seen Magnus loose control like that."
"That is because he is not like Magnus Logan. My son is. hmm. I guess the best word is a hybrid.."
Instantly the group gasped out together, "What?"
"He was created in a lab. Magnus had just begun his "Holy War." He was bound to find a way to end the persecution of mutants. Magnus believed he had found a way to enhance a mutant to a whole new level, he believed he could harness the genes that have given us our abilities. I went along with him for the most part. I didn't truly realize his intentions."
"What are you saying Professor?" Scott said what was on everyone's mind.
"I went along with Magnus, and even donated some of my own genetic material. I believed the experiment to never get off the ground, and that it would end just as quickly as it begun."
"But it didn't did it?"
As Logan spat that out he began to flare up in anger.
"You cursed scientist, you are always willing to do your experiments, but are not willing to live up to the consequences." springing out his claws.
The professor looked down in shame of what he had done. Logan was right about how wrong the Professor was to even agree to this experiment. It did not matter though. He paid for his actions ten fold when starting the institute and stopping Magnus from conducting more.
"Logan, let him finish."
Logan sprung from anger to shock, it had been the first time Rogue had ever put Logan in his place, and he didn't quite know what to make of it. He grumbled and sat back in his seat.
"As I said, I believed the experiment to be a failure, and in a sense it was. Magnus succeeded in creating a new mutant, one whose power was un- heard of. Nate has control of multiple powers. He is like Magnus. And he is like me."
