x-men evolution does not belong to me, I believe it belongs to Marvel Comics. Draconis/Richard does infact belong to me, as does this plot. By the way, any thoughts are in italics

In the vortex of time Draconis' mind was assaulted with information. Two and a half thousand years worth of information, about technology even a new language was downloaded into his now searing head. But that wasn't all, his body was changing. The vortex opened one last time sending Draconis spiraling through the falling snow and head first right into a small boulder on the side of the road.
Jean-Luc Lebeau was a proud man. He had just completed yet another successful theft and was on his way home with his treasure. Confidence clouded his mind. Not only did he fool the guards and steal a precious gem, but he lead the most successful house of thieves in the world. Jean-Luc wasn't just a proud man, he was a greedy man. Even though his family had stolen enough that no one in his family would have to work for several generations. But his greed was overwhelming. When he heard of people with abilities, he knew he had to get several of them in his family. But how to do it? He was answered when he saw a young boy who couldn't have been more than three or four years old attempting to pickpocket an older man walking down the street. Any other day Jean-Luc would have walked right past this child even laughing at him. But there was something about this kid, and the moment the young boy turned his head toward him he knew. He had make this kid apart of his family. For the next few years Jean-Luc trained young Remy, and it was starting to bear fruit. Just a few more years.
Having a trip down memory lane, Jean-Luc didn't see the young child walking out of the falling snow and right into the middle of the street. Quickly realizing what he was about to do, Jean-Luc slammed on the breaks. But he wasn't going to make it, he was going to hit the child.
Having woken up cold on the side of the road, the young child hugged himself close trying to keep his small frame warm. Without realizing it, the young child had activated his mutant ability. Big brown bird wings sprouted from his back, and wrapped themselves around the small boy. Shivering from the cold the small boy walked forward hoping to find some shelter from the fierce chill. He stumbled into the road. Suddenly a bright light filled his vision and was getting closer by the second. Like a dear stuck in traffic, he froze. The car was getting closer still. But he couldn't move his feet frozen in place. The light was almost on top of him when instinct took over, and the young child slammed his hands down.
It was going to be close, either Jean-Luc would run this small child down or he would break just in the nick of time. Suddenly the young child lifted his hands over his head and brought them back down slamming into the front of his car flipping the car over the head of the child and landed upright right behind the child.
Shocked beyond belief Jean-Luc sat there for several moments. "Did that really happen?" Needing to know if he was imagining things or not, Jean-Luc opened his door and stepped out hugging his coat closer to his body as he made his way to the front of his car. Sure enough there were two small handprints indented in the front of his car. That confirmed it. Jean-Luc had just found the next member of his ever growing family of thieves. He walked around the car, where he found the young boy lying in the snow. Jean-Luc kneeled down so that his pant legs were getting wet in the snow and gently lifted the boy from the snow and placed him in the passenger seat of his car. Having placed him in the car Jean-Luc tried to remove the wet cloak from around the small child but found he was unable to. The cloak moved on its own, and it was then that he realized that it wasn't a cloak; it was a pair of wings! Jean-Luc's grin spread quickly and was soon from ear to ear. This kid just got better and better. Soon both Jean-Luc and the young child were on their way back to Jean-Luc's house.
On arriving at his home, Jean-Luc carried the young boy into his house, calling for his son to bring a blanket. Young Remy Lebeau came running down the stairs with a blanket.
"Who is he dad?" Remy asked his father.
"He's a special kid Remy just like you" Jean-Luc answered his son with a grin on his face.
After Jean-Luc wrapped the young boy in warm blankets, he and Remy took turns keeping an eye on him making sure that he was kept warm.
A few hours later the young boy started screaming.
"NO GET AWAY FROM ME… AH AM NOT A MONSTER… AH AM NOT A MONSTER"
The young boy woke with a start.
"where am ah?" he asked
"Dad, dad he's awake!" Remy screamed
Jean-Luc rushed towards the couch hoping he could add this kid to his arsenal.
Looking at the frozen and confused child, Jean-Luc didn't feel compassion, only greed. The only thing he was thinking about was what the boy's talents could do for his guild.
"where am ah?" the young boy asked repeating his question
"you're in ma house" Jean-Luc said smoothly, "do you know who you are? Do you have parents?"
The young boy thought for a moment, flashes of people dead amoungst the rubble came to mind.
"Ah… don't know?" the boy answered a confused look on his face.
If it were possible the grin on Jean-Luc's face grew even more. Here was another mutant he could add to his band of thieves, and it wouldn't be hard to gain custody of him either.
It was then that he noticed that the childs eyes were exactly like Remy's. Maybe there are related?, But that didn't matter to Jean-Luc. If they weren't already related they soon would be.
"would you like to join ma famille" Jean-Luc asked the young child.
"…you mean… you want me.. to be apart of your family?" the timid young boy asked hesitantly
"Jeune garcon(young boy) Ah would be happy to have you apart of ma famille" Jean-Luc charmed the boy with a welcoming smile.
A smile appeared on the face of the young boy
"now dis wont do, we can't jus call u garcon you need ah name." Jean-Luc thought
"ow bout Richard? That was my grandfather's name.
"ah would be most honored sir" the newly named child responded.
"how old are ya Richard?" Remy asked his new brother
"Ah'm.." Richard thought for a moment before holding out four fingers
"your four years old, cool! Ah'm two years older than ya" Remy replied.
