Chapter 5
"How will this professor find us?" Asked Corbin after they all stopped laughing.
"He can track Inna's and Laura's mutant signature."
Just then the sound of a jet landing caught their attention. Running out of the cave they saw a blackbird in the clearing. When its door opened out came the X-men. Cyclops, Wolverine, Night crawler, Shadowcat, and Colossus all came out of the jet.
"Hey guys over here" yelled out Actaeon.
"Hello Actaeon, Inna, Laura, and you must be the new guy." Cyclops nodded to each one but stopped when he saw Corbin.
"My name is Corbin, and…"
"He's Shi'ar royalty," interrupted Actaeon.
"He's been in a stasis chamber for 30 years," continued Laura pointing back at the cave.
"D'ken put him there," said Inna.
"Because Corbin in line before him for the throne," said Actaeon.
"He's Lil's cousin," continued Laura.
"We also think that D'ken might have framed Deathbird and killed Corbin father, and his own parents" said Actaeon.
"His dad's name was Rr'av'en" finished Inna not sure what else to say.
"The bombs in the cave" said Laura.
Shell-shocked the X-men went and disposed of the bomb.
Soon they left and as they flew the X-men came out of their auto-pilot like states.
"So Corin, who did you say, or the crazy trio say, your parents were?" shadowcat asked.
"It's Corbin, and my father was Rr'av'en, my mother was a human named Carina, though the other Shi'ar called her E'ar'th'a. I do not know her real name. I also had an aunt on my mother's side that came to the empire. I do not know her real name, though everyone else called her lok'hu'jjo, meaning bird of Ice." He looked at their faces "yeah they're a mouthful, I know."
The rest of the ride home was rather uneventful.
Once they got back to the mansion was different story. All the X-men, New Mutants, and anyone else currently at the mansion were in the hanger when they arrived. The professor, Rogue, Storm, Sage, Bishop, Wolfsbane, Mirage, Cannonball, Sunspot, Karma, Warlock, Cypher, Sunfire, Silver Samurai, and Mariko were in the hanger.
Actaeon bounced right out and yelled "Hey everyone, I'm back." Warlock panicked remembering her last trip the mansion and fled… via the new hole in the roof. Everyone else took a step back also remembering her. She may be human but she had a temper and was a bit nuts. (Far away the many members of the FOH shuddered as if someone had walked over their grave.)
Cyclops, Wolverine, Night crawler, Shadowcat, and Colossus were next off the Blackbird.
Cyclops let out a groan at the new hole and said, "Will someone go get him? Preferably before someone else sees him."
Cypher ran off, worry for his friend overriding curiosity about the alien on the blackbird.
The alien on the plane was a bit more worried that one of the technarchy was living there and had been for a while than whether someone saw it.
"Um the technarchy?" he said warily.
Cyclops did not even look away from the hole, "Crash landed in our backyard. The kids sorta adopted him. He is a kid too so… anyway he's okay, a little hyper, still teaching him about earth culture, only real problem is when he flies thru the roof."
"Remember the time we went to the beach, "
"So what was a Shi'ar doing near you guys anyhow?" Asked Rogue.
"taking a long nap" replied Inna.
