"You made contact with her mind Professor; surely you caught a glimpse of
true purpose here?" Jean Grey asked, her expression one of worry.
"No Jean. I didn't realise at the time, but Mary Sue managed to block any attempt in delving deeper into her mind. We made contact only because she wanted to, otherwise I would never have been able to reach her mind." Replied the Professor, distraught that Mary Sue could so easily get past his mental defences.
"Know whats really strange?" piped up Rogue, "That she has seduced every man she wanted and they don't even realise she's two timing them with every other guy in the school! Why haven't they noticed?"
"That's because, well, its hard to explain, but now I am no longer under her thrall, I can read her thoughts more clearly, so I can detect what she is feeling. I can tell you now - she is actually completely unaware of the heartbreak she is causing. She does not realise how wrong this is. On a whim she turns from one man to the next, and yet, she makes sure the they don't realise she is dating every man in the school because each and every one of those poor souls see her as an all perfect being who would never do that. The thought that she might be doing what she really is doing does not occure to them."
"That has like, got to be the longest sentence, like, you have ever said, Professor" said Kitty Pryde.
"Whatever." Storm said, as she thumped the table with her fist, her anger sending a slight electric shock through everyone in the room, the jolt causing them to ignore Kitty's prattle. "Lets get to the point. Her powers are too many, she develops new powers every day. How do we deal with a person like that? How do we get rid of her?"
"How do we know she's even a person?" Siryn asked. She had hated Mary Sue ever since the All Perfect One had acquired a power similar to Siryn's own mutant power. Siryn knew that it was possible for two mutants to have the same power, after all she inherited hers from her father, but for Mary Sue to have that many? Impossible.
Jean Grey sympathised with Siryn's jealousy. She had chosen Scott over Logan and this was how he repaid her loyalty. Screwing around with a teenager.
"Theres one way to find out." Rogue's voice had a strong hint of malevolent intentions. "If she's a person, I can take her power."
"YES!" chorused the assembled mass of women.
Only Jean and the Professor seemed dubious. "Rogue all that power, all at once. Do you think you will be able to handle it all?" Xavier asked.
"Plus there is the chance of her being able to resist your touch, or worse, throw it back at you." Jean added.
"But think about it Professor, if Rogue could gain Mary Sue's powers, even for an instant, she would also gain Mary Sue's telepathic and telekinetic abilities. You would be able to read her mind, fully, through Rogue, surely!" cried Storm. Finally it seemed like the solution was at hand, she wasn't about to give up on their only idea so far.
"And I am willing to try." Rogue reminded them.
"If we can read her mind, we can find a weakness and exploit it." Jean looked at the Professor. "This could be our one shot of getting her out of our lives. But it's your call."
Yes, our one shot, but is it what Scott, Logan, Colossus and all the other brainwashed men want? If we do anything against Mary Sue, they will only end up hating us. Or worse, attack us to defend her." Charles Xavier pointed out.
"Hey? Hello? I've an idea! Lets try winning back each and every guy over! If we make sure Mary Sue isn't in the sight of a man, any man, all of them, she can't tempt them and we can!" Kitty said, feeling a bit ignored.
"Then who will distract Mary Sue?" asked Rogue, not wanting anyone else but her to win back her Bobby.
"I will." Said the Professor in a tone of voice that suggested there would be no arguments. "Unsurprisingly, she is unattached to old, bald men. Yes, it is a risk, but no more risky than what Rogue will do to her. I have been under her spell once, I know what to look out for and it will not be allowed to happen again.
Everyone agreed to the plan. Not that they had much choice, but plan B - do nothing - would achieve nothing. For the sake of their love lives, their friends and the fate of both mutant and human kind, they had to try.
