Reference: For those of you either unfamiliar with or lacking in knowledge of X-Men in General. This story branches from the T.V. show shortly after Mesmero uses Magneto to destroy the spider key and opens the second door to Apocalypse's prison. (New) before the name indicates characters otherwise not found in the X-Men: Evolution Universe.
(New) Silvia Tossgrove (AKA: Dragon/Tesla): Age: 16Affiliation: Not yet determined Silvia is the story's main character. A heavily mutated young woman hailing from Atlanta, Georgia, Silvia lost most of her humanity in the initial stages of her mutation. Aside from her altered body, which resembles a cross between human and the fantastical dragon of legends, Silvia possesses a power over electrical currents and anomalies that no other mutant can match. Among her powers is the ability to 'Amp' her physical attributes (Strength, Endurance, Speed, ect...) by feeding off of raw electricity. She also possesses the gift of being able to temporarily become one with the energy and travel though electrical cable and power lines. The drawback is that her survival is dependent on having a constant source of power nearby. The greater the exertion of her power, the more electricity her body needs to consume. Overloads are a common occurrence, caused by Silvia consuming more energy than she exerts.

Prolouge: Emergency
"CLEAR THE AISLES!!!PREPARE THE O.R.!!!"
"PRESSURE IS 60 OVER 30 AND DROPPING!!"
"DAMIT!! SOMEBODY FIND A DOCTOR!!!"
Lights flashed overhead as young Silvia Tossgrove slowly regained consciousness. She could hear the panicky voices shouting all around her, but she couldn't think of what they were saying. She tried to move, but she couldn't.
Why was she here?
What had happened?
And why was it getting so hard to breath?
"PRESSURE IS 90 OVER 20!!"
"WE'RE LOSING HER!!"
" What happened?!" A third distinct voice entered the fray, this one elderly and male. Lacking the panic of the other two, but still keeping the concern.
"We don't know, doctor. Witnesses say that she collapsed in the hallway." The first voice came again. "Her condition has been deteriorating rapidly since."
Pain spasmed though Silva's chest and down her spine, making her clench her teeth in involuntary protest.
She couldn't yell out.
She couldn't even breath....
Again, she fell out of consciousness
"40cc's OF ADRINILEN! WE NEED TO STABILIZE BEFORE WE CAN DO ANYTHING ELSE!!" Dr. Archer looked over his new patient, noticing her eyelids closing. Before he could say anything about this, however, the young woman was moved from the gurney and quickly hooked into a heart monitor, which immediately started it's frantic beeping.
Still, looking over her and trying to tune out to rushed actions of the nursing team, he could see no immediate cause. No wounds or signs of illness. She certainly wasn't obese and the drop in blood pressure did not correspond with that of a heart attack patient or a drug overdose. Aside from the fact that she was laid out on a operating table in front of him dying, she seemed perfectly healthy."
"WHAT THE DEVIL IS WRONG WITH HER!?"
"UNKNOWN DOCTOR!"
Before another order or action could be achieved, a single dreaded sound drowned out all other noise.
A single, high-pitched, endless beep that, for half a second, quieted the room.
"CODE BLUE! SHE'S FLATLINEING!! GET THE RECESSITATOR'S NOW!!!"
"ADRENILIN IS READY DOCTOR!"
"May be too late for that!! BRING THE DAMNED PADDLES IN HERE NOW!!!"
"This is happening too fast, Doctor! I can't isolate the problem!!"
"PADDLES!" Dr. Archer reached over and took the resuscitation paddles from the helping technician and rubbed them together before setting each one down in the standard positions.
"READY!"
"CLEAR!!!" Everybody backed slightly away, allowing Dr. Archer to press the switch on the paddles.
In an instant, the resuscitator's control panel exploded, just as Dr. Archer's arms were thrown back painfully in the air by a sudden electrical arc.
Then, just as quickly as it had come, the flat-line was gone, a sudden, steady heart beat now gracing the monitor.
"Dear gods… what was that?!" the technician asked, staring wide eyed at the blackened metallic husk that had been the resuscitator only a moment ago.
"We have a pulse doctor." One of the nurses reported, "Stronger…. And steady."
"Blood pressure is increasing as well." Another said, "Stable, back to normal levels."
Dr. Archer looked back to the tools in his hands, hardly believing this unexpected twist to the last thirty or so seconds. He had used the resuscitators many times before. But never had he experience that sort of kickback.
"She's breathing on her own, Doctor."
"Alright...I think she's going to be okay."
"Which is more than we can say for this thing." The technician added, reaching over to take the paddles from the doctor.
"What just happened?" Dr. Archer asked, turning to the tech and the blown out machine.
"I don't know, doctor. It must have been some kind of short or power surge. I've never seen anything like this before."
With the tension in the room winding down, Dr. Archer found it easy to slip away from the formalities of getting the young woman taken from the Emergency Room to a regular hospital room. In this time, just before the tech managed to roll the now useless machine out of the room, he took a look at the intact power gage.
After a moment, he waved the tech out the door, allowing her to continue on with her work. Still, the calm face of Doctor Julian Archer an amazing contrast of what was going on behind his eyes.
If the gage was right, then he had just pumped almost a thousand volts of electricity into this poor girl.

"Ms. Tossgrove?"
"Yes?" Olivia Tossgrove, a slightly rounded middle aged woman with only a sliver of grey in her jet black hair sprang up from her seat in the hospital's boorish waiting room, hoping at last to find out what was happening with her daughter.
"I'm Dr. Archer. I've been treating Silvia since she came in this afternoon. I have a few questions to ask you about your daughter."
"Is Silvia okay?" Ms. Tossgrove asked, dreading the worse.
"Oh, she's fine Ms. Tossgrove. She gave us quite a scare when she first came in, but she's sleeping soundly now and seems to be well on her way to full recovery."
"Can I see her?"
"Uh, Ms. Tossgrove, there are still a few things that we need to know before she can have visitors…"
"Oh, yes, I have all of her insurance papers and medical records with me." Ms. Tossgrove started, beginning to shuffle though her purse.
"No, no, it's not that ma'am," Dr. Archer assured her, "Just some standard medical questions. First off, I needed to ask about the rash around the front of Silvia's throat and torso. Have you had that treated before, or is this the first time she's had it?"
"Oh, that, well… Silvia said that it was nothing and has just been wearing turtle necks. I was planning to take her to a doctor about it if it didn't clear up soon. But, no, she's never had that sort of thing before a week or so ago."
"Yes, I understand. Tell me, has there been anything else out of the ordinary over the last week or so? Anything that might give us a clue as to what happened at the school today?"
"Well, she has complained about being tired lately. Well, 'Tired' is putting it mildly… I would place it closer to exhaustion. She must have been sleeping at least eleven hours a night, but she still wasn't getting any better."
"I see," Dr. Archer said, noting this on the charted clipboard he held in his hands. "Has she been under any unusual social stress lately? Problem with friends or maybe a breakup with a boyfriend?"
"I…I don't think so. You see, Silvia is not a very social person. She really tended to avoid most people if possible, she doesn't like to trust anybody."
"Has she been diagnosed with any sort of social disorder? S.A.D. perhaps."
"Oh, No. Nothing like that. Silvia's just a very private person, that's all."
"Strange…" The doctor tapped his pen against his lips. "A pretty girl like that, I would think that she would be a heart breaker." He said, thinking about the attractive teen in the recovery ward, with her perfectly toned body and gorgeous brown hair
"Yes, she is a very pretty girl," Her mother agreed. "All natural too, never has to waste her time with makeup or hair styles."
"Yes, you and your husband must be very proud."
"Oh, I'm not married, Dr. Archer. Never have been." Ms. Tossgrove answered, shying away as though she were used to answering this sort of question. "Silvia was adopted."
"I see," Dr. Archer noted again, then used his most disarming smile. "Silvia will be alright, Ms. Tossgrove. However, there are several test and precautions that we need to complete to make sure that this was only a passing instants. So we will have to hold on to her for about a day or so. But, rest assured that you will be notified as soon as sheregains consciousness."
"Oh, Thank you doctor." Ms. Tossgrove grabbed the doctor's hand and shook it hard, smiling her appreciation and relief before she turned back to waiting room.
"Dr. Archer!" A nurse, one who had been in the E.R. when Silvia Tossgrove had first arrived, came up to him with a file of paper work. "The results of the blood work that you asked for."
Taking the file roughly from the nurse, Archer opened it and leafed though the vast majority of the papers, not interested in white blood cell counts or negative disease results. The only thing that interested him was the result of their newest and most revolutionary blood test. The result, though not surprising, was more than a little upsetting.
"Who else has seen this?"
"Me, the technician who did the test, and yourself."
"Can the tech be trusted to keep his mouth shut?"
"Yes doctor."
"Good, this does not leave the three of us. Now listen carefully. I want you to post a security guard at the subject's door. Nobody goes in except you and myself, understood. And I want you to keep that thing heavily sedated."
"Should I alert the military base, doctor? Or at least the police department. They will be wanting to know about this."
"No! We have to keep this quiet. I will not risk the biggest chance of our medical careers on the hopes that the government will not confiscate her."
"Understood, doctor." The nurse left, more than capable to accomplish her task.
Doctor Archer knew good and well that he was now playing a very dangerous game with risk all it's own. But, as he had said, this was the biggest opportunity that he had ever seen. He looked again at the file in his hand, still hardly believing the results of the test.
'X-positive.'
Conformation that Silvia Tossgrove did, indeed, posses the enigmatic X-gene. Any other medical doctor in the country, perhaps in most of the civilized world would kill for this opportunity.
Dr. Julian Archer now had a mutant in his care.

In an instant, the resuscitator's control panel exploded, just as Dr. Archer's arms were thrown back painfully in the air by a sudden electrical arc.
Then, just as quickly as it had come, the flat-line was gone, a sudden, steady heart beat now gracing the monitor.
"Dear gods… what was that?!" the technician asked, staring wide eyed at the blackened metallic husk that had been the resuscitator only a moment ago.
"We have a pulse doctor." One of the nurses reported, "Stronger…. And steady."
"Blood pressure is increasing as well." Another said, "Stable, back to normal levels."
Dr. Archer looked back to the tools in his hands, hardly believing this unexpected twist to the last thirty or so seconds. He had used the resuscitators many times before. But never had he experience that sort of kickback.
"She's breathing on her own, Doctor."
"Alright...I think she's going to be okay."
"Which is more than we can say for this thing." The technician added, reaching over to take the paddles from the doctor.
"What just happened?" Dr. Archer asked, turning to the tech and the blown out machine.
"I don't know, doctor. It must have been some kind of short or power surge. I've never seen anything like this before."
With the tension in the room winding down, Dr. Archer found it easy to slip away from the formalities of getting the young woman taken from the Emergency Room to a regular hospital room. In this time, just before the tech managed to roll the now useless machine out of the room, he took a look at the intact power gage.
After a moment, he waved the tech out the door, allowing her to continue on with her work. Still, the calm face of Doctor Julian Archer an amazing contrast of what was going on behind his eyes.
If the gage was right, then he had just pumped almost a thousand volts of electricity into this poor girl.

"Ms. Tossgrove?"
"Yes?" Olivia Tossgrove, a slightly rounded middle aged woman with only a sliver of grey in her jet black hair sprang up from her seat in the hospital's boorish waiting room, hoping at last to find out what was happening with her daughter.
"I'm Dr. Archer. I've been treating Silvia since she came in this afternoon. I have a few questions to ask you about your daughter."
"Is Silvia okay?" Ms. Tossgrove asked, dreading the worse.
"Oh, she's fine Ms. Tossgrove. She gave us quite a scare when she first came in, but she's sleeping soundly now and seems to be well on her way to full recovery."
"Can I see her?"
"Uh, Ms. Tossgrove, there are still a few things that we need to know before she can have visitors…"
"Oh, yes, I have all of her insurance papers and medical records with me." Ms. Tossgrove started, beginning to shuffle though her purse.
"No, no, it's not that ma'am," Dr. Archer assured her, "Just some standard medical questions. First off, I needed to ask about the rash around the front of Silvia's throat and torso. Have you had that treated before, or is this the first time she's had it?"
"Oh, that, well… Silvia said that it was nothing and has just been wearing turtle necks. I was planning to take her to a doctor about it if it didn't clear up soon. But, no, she's never had that sort of thing before a week or so ago."
"Yes, I understand. Tell me, has there been anything else out of the ordinary over the last week or so? Anything that might give us a clue as to what happened at the school today?"
"Well, she has complained about being tired lately. Well, 'Tired' is putting it mildly… I would place it closer to exhaustion. She must have been sleeping at least eleven hours a night, but she still wasn't getting any better."
"I see," Dr. Archer said, noting this on the charted clipboard he held in his hands. "Has she been under any unusual social stress lately? Problem with friends or maybe a breakup with a boyfriend?"
"I…I don't think so. You see, Silvia is not a very social person. She really tended to avoid most people if possible, she doesn't like to trust anybody."
"Has she been diagnosed with any sort of social disorder? S.A.D. perhaps."
"Oh, No. Nothing like that. Silvia's just a very private person, that's all."
"Strange…" The doctor tapped his pen against his lips. "A pretty girl like that, I would think that she would be a heart breaker." He said, thinking about the attractive teen in the recovery ward, with her perfectly toned body and gorgeous brown hair
"Yes, she is a very pretty girl," Her mother agreed. "All natural too, never has to waste her time with makeup or hair styles."
"Yes, you and your husband must be very proud."
"Oh, I'm not married, Dr. Archer. Never have been." Ms. Tossgrove answered, shying away as though she were used to answering this sort of question. "Silvia was adopted."
"I see," Dr. Archer noted again, then used his most disarming smile. "Silvia will be alright, Ms. Tossgrove. However, there are several test and precautions that we need to complete to make sure that this was only a passing instants. So we will have to hold on to her for about a day or so. But, rest assured that you will be notified as soon as sheregains consciousness."
"Oh, Thank you doctor." Ms. Tossgrove grabbed the doctor's hand and shook it hard, smiling her appreciation and relief before she turned back to waiting room.
"Dr. Archer!" A nurse, one who had been in the E.R. when Silvia Tossgrove had first arrived, came up to him with a file of paper work. "The results of the blood work that you asked for."
Taking the file roughly from the nurse, Archer opened it and leafed though the vast majority of the papers, not interested in white blood cell counts or negative disease results. The only thing that interested him was the result of their newest and most revolutionary blood test. The result, though not surprising, was more than a little upsetting.
"Who else has seen this?"
"Me, the technician who did the test, and yourself."
"Can the tech be trusted to keep his mouth shut?"
"Yes doctor."
"Good, this does not leave the three of us. Now listen carefully. I want you to post a security guard at the subject's door. Nobody goes in except you and myself, understood. And I want you to keep that thing heavily sedated."
"Should I alert the military base, doctor? Or at least the police department. They will be wanting to know about this."
"No! We have to keep this quiet. I will not risk the biggest chance of our medical careers on the hopes that the government will not confiscate her."
"Understood, doctor." The nurse left, more than capable to accomplish her task.
Doctor Archer knew good and well that he was now playing a very dangerous game with risk all it's own. But, as he had said, this was the biggest opportunity that he had ever seen. He looked again at the file in his hand, still hardly believing the results of the test.
'X-positive.'
Conformation that Silvia Tossgrove did, indeed, posses the enigmatic X-gene. Any other medical doctor in the country, perhaps in most of the civilized world would kill for this opportunity.
Dr. Julian Archer now had a mutant in his care.
