Another Note from Jaz—After looking online for what Morph's real name is, I have found two answers. Sidney Jones and Kevin Sidney. Though calling him Sidney would be more accurate as it is used in both names, I prefer Kevin and am, from here on out, going to call him Kevin. So, if you see the name Kevin anywhere, it's Morph.--Jaz
Elizabeth looked at the professor. "What'cha need?" She asked, sitting down in one of the war room's chairs.
"We will be having a…" he paused, folding his hands in his usual manner. "A guest coming to visit us soon… He should be arriving…fairly shortly. I hope you will welcome him kindly."
"Excuse me?" she asked, appalled. "You think I wouldn't treat him kindly? Professor, what's up?"
"It's nothing, Eli. It's nothing." He smiled. "I just wanted to be sure you know about this. You may go."
Elizabeth looked suspicious. The proffessor almost never called her Eli. Only Logan and Kevin ever had, and maybe her parents when she was younger. Sighing, Elileft the war room, head down, trying to figure out the professor's point. He always had a point. As she looked at the ground, she didn't see him coming, bumping into the poor passerby.
"I'm terribly sorry," she said, looking up to see which of her friends she had hit, amazed to see the familiar light brown eyes staring back at her. The look, so full of happiness and love, took her breath away, as it had done so many times before. "Kevin!" she exclaimed, wrapping her arms tightly around his neck. "But I thought you were with Moira!"
"I've decided to come back. I'm glad you're still here." Kevin smiled again.
"I wouldn't leave." Came the respond quickly. Kevin laughed and picked her up, spinning her around.
"Eli, babe, it's been too long! How've you been?"
"Pretty good, I guess. Trying to get through school…" She gagged at the thought of all the homework she had left to do.
"They treating you okay? At school, I mean."
Elizabeth's school was a normal human school, and with her red wings, she was, shall we say, less than normal. Or maybe more than normal, depending on how one would look at it. "It's fine. I can take the torment, and most people have just gotten used to me."
They stared at each other for a few seconds in happy silence until Morph finally spoke. "I've got to go talk to Professor Xavier. I'll see you later, then?"
Eli nodded. "Of course. Later." She sighed and hugged him again, walking off to her room.
