Helia looked over at her brother Helios and cocked her head to the side, her hair falling slightly into her eyes. "Are you sure that he said we needed to be here at five pm? I mean we have been waiting for four hours." she said to her twin brother. "I don't know, that was just what the note said that Koran had left." Helios said pushing his blue hair from his eyes. He laughed slightly though as his sister pouted, the two siblings sat on a roof top staring down at the people pacing below, they looked like ants on a side walk in Helia's opinion. After a few more minutes the female stood up and began to pace back and forth on the rooftop shaking her head slightly, her brother ignoring her antics.
"You know the more you worry, the longer its going to take." Helios said as he walked over to his twin and hugged her close. Helia and Helios were a pair of elemental twin mutants originally from Scotland, however they moved to America ten years before, their parents were dead however leaving them to raise themselves. The twins however were not heroes or villains, they preferred to stay as loners, on neither side of the law. "I guess we should not bother staying anymore since he is not going to show up, lets go down to the club below and get a drink." the male said as he and his sister vanished in the shadows and reappeared in a back alley outside of the club.
"Foam, what a lame name for a Scottish club in this quarter." Helios muttered to himself as he held the door for his sister. The two mutants walked inside and took a seat at the bar. They knew the owner so that is how they always got free drinks. "The usual then, Helios?" the bar tender asked the male. "Sure thing Max, anything knew around here tonight?" Helios asked. "Nah, other than a strange Cajun who made his way in here an hour ago, been keeping an eye on him, seems like a trouble maker." the tender said putting two shot glasses down with bright spirits in them, the twins took them and swallowed them down fast. Then Helia turned and looked out into the crowd, her glowing brow eyes watching along side her brother's red ones.

The night was young and Remy needed to get away from the Mansion like a rat in a cage. The house was a full blown hot spring of anger that day. Scott and Logan were arguing again and Jean was un-able to brake them up. He had even tried forcing the anger out only to be almost slapped by Emma Frost for using his Empathy on teammates. So, he did what he normally did on such nights, left. He was was behaving though not wanting to have the team come and get him. Finding the bar just by simply wondering the streets and not caring where his feet took him. The music was nice and everyone seemed friendly. Yes, this is what he needed right now some place the people did not have anger and hate rolling off them. The people here felt warm and friendly making his head hurt less and the negativity of the empathy go away.
There was only one person who did not seem to trust him and that was the bar keeper himself. Remy did not blame him though, he was a Cajun in a Scottish bar kind of out of place so to speak. His eyes went up seeing two kids walk in they could not be proper drinking age and if they were they looked good. Not that he was one to judge. One though did catch his red on black eyes. The boy had red eyes like him and that made him wonder if they possibly were Mutants as well. Shrugging he paid attention to the billiards game once more. The other man was good and it was just a simple clean game no bets. Remy did not want to piss off a bar full of Scottish warm-bloods and have to get picked up by someone. He was tapping his foot to the tune of the music and smiled a little to himself.
However his empathy only noticed more about the two kids. The boy he could not read any emotions off of, though the girl clearly cared for the other. They had to be related something about how they interacted told him that. "Hey red head your turn." The man he was playing with suddenly said snapping him out of his thoughts. "Ah, than' you cher." He said and returned to the game. He got two balls in before the other man's turn again and said to the other. "Pretty sure you gonna win." The other looked at him and the table then said. "Maybe though you do not strike me as someone to loose. You alright?" Remy shrugged in response and said simply. "Cards more Remy's game." His voice silky like with the mix of French and Spanish.

Helios became aware of Remy staring at him and he cocked his head to the side slightly then blinked as the older male looked away. Helios just shrugged it off and turned to look over at Helia who was talking to the bar tender. "You know its rude to judge a book by their cover or how they make you feel. If you mean that mutant over there at the pool table, well your an ass." Helia muttered to the bar tender who eased back a bit. "You know how we feel about you getting your bloody knickers in a knot all the time" Helios said and smirked at his friend the bar tender before the two stood up and made their way closer towards Remy, though Helia payed him no attention as they walked past, her mind on other matters at the moment.
Helios smiled softly at Remy but said nothing as they took a seat in the back on an old leather couch that was rather worn out. Helia however suddenly blinked and looked up as she caught the sound of Remy's accent and she smirked softly, and waved a waitress over and whispered into her ear before the women nodded and walked off. Soon she returned with a glass of whiskey and put it down beside Remy on the side of the pool table. "You have an admirer love." she said in a thick accent before she nodded towards the twins, winked and then walked off. Helios was speaking with his sister when Remy would look at them, the two not really paying much attention to him at the moment, they spoke in Gaelic as well which confused a few American born people around them.
Helia suddenly flinched though and Helios ran a hand through her hair and touched her forehead. His sister sometimes had the worst migraines and he knew it was do to the newest power of her's manifesting. He took their beers from the waitress and handed one to Helia who saw up and sipped it while her brother put his down on the worn out table beside him. Helia watched Remy, her eyes would flash a strange bluish color every once in awhile, everyone else around them seemed to not be aware or they were ignoring the twins out of respect. Meanwhile the bartender was at work hanging out rounds of shots to a few old timers at the bar.

Remy had noticed the kids moving closer, but paid no mind. When the drink came and the waitress gave a hint it was the girl he smiled slightly though not right at her not wanting her to be embarrassed. That was when he sensed a flash of discomfort from the girl and winced slightly his eyes the only sign of pain. It seemed the kids wanted to be ignored, but leave it to his inner French to be too nice. Excusing himself from the game for a minute he grabbed a towel and ice from the bar tender bring it over to the kids and setting it by the boy before turning to let them be. Going back to the game he played and drink the whiskey down though it was short lived the other man won in the next three rounds and Remy nodded his thanks. Putting the sticks away and resetting the balls before returning the whiskey glass. Normally he would have left, but the sound and sense of someone coming in paused him. "Remy." said a calm and soft voice.
Turning his head just slightly Remy nodded to the dark haired man who just walked in, Tensa Emiya. A fellow X-Man and A strong one too boot. Remy nodded then paused when Tensa whispered to him. "Brotherhood is near by two of the members we should go." Remy shook his head and said, "Non Remy thinks he knows what they are after. Lets stay get a drink." Tensa paused and nodded his head. Then asked the bar tender taking is ID out. "Do you have any Black Malt?" He paused though sensing two new Mutants and turned to look around before figuring that was why Remy would want to stay. Normally Tensa did not interfere, but if the older X-men wanted to stay it more often than not was a good reason. Where as Remy normally dressed like a street rat Tensa wore a pair of black dress pants, a white shirt under a black jacket and a tie. The only other things were is black leather gloves and glasses. This made him look like a business man or someone official. His hair was in a slight pony-tail maybe about three inches though giving him a slightly different quality.
He also knew about eight languages including Greek, Latin and Gallic giving him a edge up to others when eves dropping to find out information. Remy sat back and ordered a beer while taking his cards out. Using his powers to charge them only enough to do mid air bridges and such, having learned how to do it without the cards blowing up. Tensa sat next to him and they discussed classes for the next day. Though it was all coded. Remy taught martial arts in the danger room which they referred to as Self- Defense classes and Tensa taught Focused Control or the ability to control the level of powers which they called Math.

"Thanks mate." Helios would whisper to Remy before he left again after dropping off the towel and ice. He put it to his sister's head and let Helia lay it on his shoulder while they watched the bar around them. Helia shuttered again and her brother held her closer a worried feeling growing in the pit of his stomach. He finished his beer along with his sister's beet then narrowed his red eyes watching as a new mutant came in. He could sense strongly that this new man was a mutant. However he tensed up as he felt something evil lurking outside of the bar, he narrowed his eye as his anger began to bristle inside of him. Helia shook her head and put a finger to his lips to calm her older brother down, this seemed to work on the male and he sighed.
Helia soon shook off her pain and slowly stood up and made her way into the back of the bar for a few minutes, she would come back over to her brother however and whisper something into Helios's ear. "Are you sure they are X-Men?" he whispered back and she nodded her head. Helios said nothing more and nodded his head to his sister before they both stood up and made their way over to the bar tender. "Yah, I already know, you know only good mutants are welcome in here. Any of that rif raf come in here from outside, well they have me to deal with." the bar tender said, he was a mutant himself but you would never guess unless you knew him well enough like the twins did.
Helia looked over at Remy then Tensa for a few seconds, grabbed her brother's hand and allowed Helios to drag her over to the two men. He cleared his throat polietly and then sat down in a chair, his sister sitting on the arm. "I am sorry to bother you but you don't happen to be staying because the two of us are like you and your worried, are you?" Helios asked gently as he looked over at Remy. "I am aware of the other's outside but they know better than to come into this place, when Max is here." Helia said nodding towards the bar tender. "He is a high class mutant himself but when the X-Men come around he behaves himself." Helios said finishing her words.

Tensa looked at the two moving along and sensed something shift in the air again he could sense something from the tender but was not sure what. It was when the two finally came over he understood. Remy and him looked at one another the demon eyed Cajun putting his cards away. Tensa then stated to the kids. "You are at least rank three if not four class. That makes you wanted and targets. We are simply staying, because we know the others and let's just say.... Some could care less about who stood in their way." Remy nodded knowing Tensa had experience when it came to such things. Remy then said in French. "Going outside Tensa be right back." Tensa nodded and watched the other go outside. He sighed and drank more of the drink Max had given him. Looking at the twins he said. "I am not saying you are not safe, but call it instinct now. We are so used to dealing with these guys that we naturally will stay around to protect not just for others like us but for normal people too."
Tensa looked at the two and said. "Name is Tensa Emiya and the other man... well we just call him Remy or Gambit. He may seem shifty but his heart is in a good place at all times." Then he switched to Gallic, "May I ask your names?" He was not doing it to sound like a smart ass, but he knew sometimes people did not like saying things out loud in the common speech. His eyes were dark green almost black under his glasses. Moving his left hand up he pushed some of his hair from his eyes and the slightest glint of metal could be seen at his wrist. He could sense the girl's pain a little and asked to her. "Is it normal?" The sound of foot steps made hi stop and he looked over his shoulder so see Pyro walking in the blonde fire controlling man was being rather braze or stupid, that left one other outside and knowing Remy the Cajun would probably deal with him if he had to.
Looking at the twins then at the blonde again for a half moment he decided to be safe not sorry. Eyes glowing suddenly a dagger was in his hand and then lines formed up his arm and the blade. When the lines faded he then turned and walked t Pyro and the blonde stopped. Tensa said quietly. "Out now." Pyro smirked and said calmly. "No, I am looking for something move." They looked at each other for a moment, but the sound of something going boom outside told Tensa, Remy had been pushed to fight. A second man ran in and said. "Pyro we need to go know there's a..." Seeing Tensa he hissed. " Shit there's two of them." Before more could happen Tensa grabbed the smaller blonde and pushed him out the door with the other. They took it as get lost being Remy was also there eyes fully glowing.
Tensa watched Remy go back in and the Cajun was mad no he was feeding off the anger around him and it was causing the empath discomfort. "Rem calm down..." Remy said. "Remy is head is on fire though." Tensa sighed and paid Max. "Sorry he get's high wired. No, damage outside he simply blew a trash can lid to scare them off. He acts firth thinks later." Tensa grabbed Remy's coat lightly and the Cajun followed him outside and was pacing out on the side walk Tensa leaning on the wall close by.

The twins just stared at Tensa as he introduced himself and then they looked at one another when he spoke to them in their native tongue. "I am Helios and this is my Sister Helia." said the older twin as he held his sister close to him. However she did not answer him when he asked her if her pain was normal, she was uncomfortable with her private problems. "We already know what we are classed as but thank you anyways." Helios spoke as he watched Remy leave. He then scanned the bar as things grew a bit more interesting, however neither of the twins reacted as Tensa removed the Pyro out of the bar. Max shrugged and took the money from the mutant and watched as the two of them began to head out the door. Helia stood up and walked out with her brother behind her, they stared up at the sky as it began to pour rain down on them.
However the water seemed to move around them, neither one of the twins ended up getting wet as they headed across the street and passed the two other mutants. Helia however was growing more and more pained and Helios ended up having to pick her up as he stared up at the sky. "Time for a short cut, your fever is getting worse." he said to his sister. Suddenly his body burst into black flames along with his sister and they shot off into the sky making their way to the far end of town. Helios then entered their run down apartment and lay his sister down on her bed and tucked her in as her fever grew worse and he let out a sigh. "I wish that Cajun was here, he seemed to calm it down when around you." Helios whispered.
Helia would manage to fall asleep a few hours later, though she would cry out every once in awhile waking her brother up. Helios was at the end of his leash not knowing what really was wrong with his sister and he wanted to get help. "Damn it...I don't know who to turn to. I don't want you to get hurt or taken away from me either." he said as he held his hand against his sister's forehead. He grew angry and his body trembled, Helia touched his hand. "Maybe...maybe help will come at the right time." Helia managed to whisper as her brother placed another blanket over her. "I want you two to go and pick up those mutants you ran into last night." Charles said as he looked over at Gambit and Tensa a worried look on his face.

Remy had calmed down with the rain and soon the two left to go home. Though as they moved Tensa could sense the pain and Remy became suck from sensing it almost. Sighing Tensa wished he could tell them to come along but it was not their place nor did he feel they would want to. He looked at the shadows they had vanished into for a few moments. Then joined Remy once more back home. Charles' words made him pause but he shrugged as Remy said." Not our place to force them to come sir. Besides they knew who Remy and Tensa were." His voice still the normal drawl.
Tensa left the room rubbing his arm he felt sore where the metal met skin at the shoulder. Grabbing a digital computer he started to ficus on every aspect of the twins he remembered starting with their looks and voices, then their energy or the sense they gave him. His hands going up he then used the computer to pinpoint their exact location. Then grabbing a long black trench coat he walked to the car. Hearing the locks click open he got out and drove as far as he could to where he felt their location. He stopped when he got to the building getting out he locked the car and went up stairs. Closing his eyes he focused and knew what room they were in but that was when he sensed the third danger.
Bolting forward he suddenly grabbed a man and pinned him to the wall." Get lost Frog and tell your boss the kids are off limits now go." The other mutant bolted not wanting to fight Tensa. Walking to the door then Tensa made sure he looked straightened out and knocked on the door." Hello?" He called quietly though he half expected an attack or being ignored. Arms crossed the false arm hurt like hell and it was getting worse. Was it the girl? Was she projecting her pain? Was it just stress and the weather? He wanted to get back to see if Hank could figure it out
human
Helios turned his head and looked towards the door sensing Tensa before he had even knocked on the door. He kissed his sister on the forehead and walked towards the door and slowly opened it. He let out a sigh, stepped to the side and allowed the other mutant into his run down apartment. "I know why you are here, Charles Xaiver sent you. We will come willingly with you on one condition, you promise to help my sister." Helios said softly and brought Tensa into the bedroom where Helia lay curled up in a ball on her side. "I think a new power is trying to manifest but its making her really sick, its happened before but not this bad." Helios said to the older male with a look of pure worry in his eyes. He bit his bottom lip and pushed his spiked up hair out of his eyes and made his way back over to Helia and gently wiped some sweat from her head away with a cloth.
"That friend of yours, he seemed to be able to keep her calm. The Remy Lebou I believe his name is." Helios said as he wrapped his sister up in a blanket and pulled her up into his arms. "As for your arm, it might be better for you to keep a distance from her once you take us back to the mansion. She seems to be really inflicting on you, she doesn't mean it though. Its something Helia can not control." Helios said a sad look in his eyes. Helia whimpered and her brother kissed her forehead again praying that Charles Xaiver would be able to help her. "Please Tensa, I need your help to try and keep her calm, any violence at this moment and her powers will sky rocket." Helios warned him as he headed towards the door his sister in his arms.
Meanwhile Helia had passed out in her brother's arms, her head against his chest. She was fighting her hardest against the pain and holding back her powers, her body felt like it was on fire. "Please...please...hurry brother. I want to see the Professor....the....other..." Helia croaked weakly. "I know....hang in there dear sister." Helios whispered to his sister as tears ran down his cheeks. However he was not ashamed if Tensa saw them, he was proud to cry. He only had Helia left for family and she meant the world to him, she he did to her. "Please hold on...Helia." he whimpered and bit his bottom lip as he looked back over at the older mutant for help.

Tensa was un-readable face wise as the other spoke to him. All he did was nod at the end." You tell know one about my arm." Only four knew that Tensa had a false arm and he hated trying to tell the story of how it became that way. He walked closer to the twins and took his coated off covering the girl and said." I'll drive right there, but I'll have to take the dirty path to avoid the harsh traffic." Guiding them to the car he handed a blanket from the trunk to them as he got in the front seat. He turned the heat on, not enough to roast but enough to keep them warm as he drove. The young man had eyes that were old under his glasses. Tensa was a different one for sure.
The drive was smooth and an hour later the pulled in. He radioed Hank that they were coming down and texted Remy and Charles to meet him in the medical wing. He brought the two right to the medical rooms in the basement level with white walls and beeping of service machines. Hank met them and told Helios to set Helia on a bed and turned the lights low to avoid her eyes from hurting. Then Charles came down as did Remy. Charles let Remy go to Helia's side and putting a hand on her forehead Remy let her pain go into him and let go once he felt her relax. Charles said to Helios." I know you wish to stay with her but let's talk in the gallery a few moments. Tensa join us let Remy and Hank work."
Following the man out Tensa sat his arms crossed eyes half closed. Charles stopped and waited for Helios to join them as well. Tensa then felt uneasy, it was not the boy that made him upset it was something more and without a word he clenched his shoulder so tight th . Sound of something grinding could be heard as the metal refused to give to his grip. Charles knew it was because Tensa was in pain and a large amount. However Tensa never shared his pain with others he held it in and that worried the older man.

"I saw your arm today, I can sense it too. Its non of my business though so I will not ask." Helios said simply and allowed them to be driven to the mansion. However when Hank came forward the teen bristled slightly feeling a bit of anger towards the great blue beast. However he relaxed seeing Remy and let out a sigh once he put his sister down and watched Remy take her pain away. He then turned and looked at Charles taking in his words and he slowly nodded his head but said nothing as he followed after the Professor. He felt sick in the stomach leaving his sister behind and he looked back over his shoulder until the door shut behind them. Helios let out another heavy sigh and walked straight towards Tensa and put a hand on where his arm connected to his real flesh.
Slowly shadows clouded around the area and the pain was brought down to a very dull low. The boy then looked up at the older male his red eyes flashed. "I can heal others through my shadows and heal myself when I am injured. "One of the pieces in your arm is going to need replacing that is why it hurts so much. You however won't feel much pain anymore for I have healed you mostly and dulled it. Its in return for helping my sister." Helios said then flushed slightly and walked away to stare at Charles his red eyes blazing. "I want to speak to Remy after this, there are things that you all need to know though. I am just not sure where the best place to start is." he said looking into the Professor's face, the older mutant unable to enter his mind.
"I can't really explain everything in one sitting but I am willing to let you in my head Professor, however be careful I do not want to harm you." he said then tensed up when he heard Helia cry out. "Fuck...." he growled and ran past them and out the door to see Helia's shadows creeping around the two other men in a dark cloud. However he relaxed suddenly aware that her powers had only just gotten stronger. "Are you able to sedate her? So that she will be able to rest while her body recovers?" Helios asked as tears threatened to stream down his cheeks as his worry grew heavy for his little sister.
gpt
Tensa had about jumped out of his seat the moment he was touched he clearly was not used to contact and it showed. Then he relaxed and stayed silent. Charles said to Helios. "I will not enter your mind unless a great need arises though as for starting anywhere you fell comfortable with is good and we will sort out the rest." At Helios' put cry though he frowned and watched the young man run off into the room. Hank seemed tense though Remy was completely relaxed and calming her as best he could. The red eyes flared almost neon pink how strong he was trying to help her. Charles wheeled closer and putting hand on Helia's hand he put walls up to block the pain of her powers and lower them from harming her."That will keep them under control and Sir Helios please refrain from cursing in the school there are yong people and some have perfect hearing. I must go to my office for a few though Remy and Tensa can show you to your room while Hank get's ready to move your sister." He wheeled away then and Tensa looked like he had just been bumped with baby-sitting while Remy looked happy.
It was not that Tensa did not like the kid, but his powers put him on edge and the thought he had so easily manipulated his arm made him a bit worried. Remy stopped though suddenly ran to the bathroom Hank sighed and called. "That is what you get for over doing it Remy." Remy snapped back something colorful in French and came out five minutes later looking a little paler, but okay. He then looked over at Helios and said. "Come on Remy will show ya where your room is at." He then turned leading the way while Tensa helped Hank guide Helia's bed. Hank said. "I am going to go the more quiet route so she does not get stressed You go the normal way and get the doors unlocked." Remy nodded and Tensa hit the button on the elevator going to the third floor. On getting out Helios would first see a class room to the right with Jean teaching while suddenly Bobby Drake spun hearing something. He saw Tensa and smirked getting up. Jean snapped something and he just moved faster. Tensa said to Remy. "Five buck I get him down in two hits." Remy nodded and said. "I say for he has been practicing." Bobby though paused seeing Helios confused only to suddenly be grabbed by Tensa who flipped him and said. "Back to your class Drake." Bobby backed up and bolted while other students giggled at the sight.
Remy explained. "That be normal. Kids think they can one up da teachers." The rest of the walk was quiet and they stopped at a set of double doors. Remy unlocked them with a key. The room was bigger than the apartment they had been in. Two twin beds, two full dressers. two bathrooms, a new leather couch, coffee table, television and a lot more. Remy said. "Tensa's room is the one two the right of yours, Remy is at the end of the hall and Miss Emma Frost who you will meet is a crossed from you. No one else in the area.. yet." Hank arrived then with Helia and brought her in making sure she was set up and that the room was not too cold. Then getting ready to go he handed Helios a small button and said. "Press it if you need me I will be flying up in a heart beat or miss Grey-Scoot will be up." He took is leave and Remy said to Helios. "Should we leave ya with her for a bit?"
human
Helios didn't answer Charles when he was scolded for cursing however, he just nodded his head. "Thank you." was all he said because Charles had helped his sister. He then watched the man leave and watched things happen between the other men. He stayed silent the whole time as they made their way up stairs, it was hard for him to be away from his sister. He stared back over at Tensa but kept his mouth shut wondering if the man hated him or something. But before he could apologize they were in front of the class. He would just nod to Remy when he explained what was happening between the student and Tensa, however his mind wondered back towards his sister and he bit his bottom lip, he was very tired himself.
Once they were at the room he took the button and thanked Hank for helping his sister. He then blinked and looked at Remy then over at Tensa. "You don't have to leave, shes asleep now and a lot better. I wouldn't mind the company." Helios said a small flush coming to his cheeks. Once they were in the room he would turn and look at Tensa and then walk to him. "Look I am sorry if my powers are making you uneasy and I am sorry for helping you. I didn't know I would creep you out that much. I just want to be friends, is that too much to ask?" he said sadly before he looked away and ran his hand through his hair before sighing and walking back over to Remy.
"Hey Remy, thank you so much for helping Helia, it means a lot. She seems to really connect well with you as well. I owe you and the others so much, with our history friends are hard to come by when even other mutants think we are freaks." Helios said and sat down on the couch. As he moved his head both Remy and Tensen could see the start of a massive scar on the back of the boy's neck while the rest was hidden under his shirt. Helios then would sit running his hands through his hair while he hung his head. "Its hard you know, feeling so alone. With only Helia as my friend. Most mutants we run into think we are freaks as well, it hurts." Helios would whisper as tears streamed down his cheeks, all his worries starting to spill out.

Tensa and Remy looked at each other then walked in Tensa sat while Remy half laid on the arm. "Remy you should eat you know what your powers do." Remy glared at Tensa and said. "Baby-sitter." That made Tensa flush not his fault he was like that it was ingrained in him to respond to other's needs. Tensa though blinked at the boy's words and sighed. "Helios it is not you I have a problem with or your powers. It is this." He pointed to his arm. "There are few who know about it' Remy, Charles, Jean, Emma, Hank and Forge along with you." He pushed his sleeve aside so Helios could see it was also covering part of his scapula and shoulder blade. "My father was a cop when I was Seventeen I watched him get gunned down and I tried using my powers to help only to push it so far I destroyed my entire left arm and still I was not enough to save ten hostages and my father. So, when people touch it or look at it I get upset because it shows my mistake." He rubbed his temples and took off his glasses. "Plus cold weather does not help." Remy smirked and said. "Old man." Tensa said back. "Swamp Rat."
Though Remy smiled hearing he had helped Helia. "She seems sweet enough besides Remy knows how powers can be a handful. Remy used not to be able to go around people because their emotions would be too strong and hurt or he touch something and it go boom." Taking a card out and charging it and after a few moments removing the charge, "But now Rem can control it. Though you want to get taught control... this man here is the one." Tensa shrugged and said. "My power only requires high amounts of focus gambit not so much control." Tensa got up going to make tea though he did listen as Helios spoke feeling sad for the boy and sorry that he had lived such a hard life it seemed. Mutants should just get along, so should people, but it seemed everyone turned on each other these days. Coming over with the tea he said, "It is green tea good for a head ache and sleeping. Plus preventing fever."
Remy said to Helios. "Well the good thing about here is we are all like family and we do not need you to tell us everything at once. There is things only a few know about me and same for everyone else. You tell us in your own time." Getting up Remy said. "Going to go grab some food, you or your sister allergic to anything?" He would grab them something simple and not too stressful on their stomachs, but they did need to eat one way or the other even if he had to force them to eat protein shakes. Tensa was sitting tea in one hand and eyes half closed seeming to day dream a moment.

Helios froze and stared up at Tensa as he shared his story with him, he flushed and looked away feeling bad for the older male. "I am sorry that happened to you. You didn't have to tell me but I thank you. I won't tell anyone your story or about your arm either." Helios said before he fell silent and listened to Remy talk as Tensa went and made some tea. "Me and Helia accidentally killed our mother when we were 4, our father threw our of the house after that. However we were raised in an orphanage a for awhile until we blew that up, everyone died in it. Our father would then come and kidnap us at the age of 11 where he would experiment on us, place things inside of us." he whispered as pain shot through his mind at the memories.
Helios would slowly pull his shirt up and show the long scar that ran down his neck and over his spine. "My father transplanted darkness into use from another mutant and both me and Helia have the same scars and may more." he whispered. "Helia ended up getting into a fight with our father a year ago, she lost control and vaporized him when she didn't mean to. She still hates herself to this day for everyone she has accidentally killed." he whispered so that only Tensa and Remy could hear. He then thanked Tensa for the tea and slowly sipped at it while Remy stood up to go and get them some food. "No, we are only allergic to stupid people." Helios joked to Remy.
"Helios....where...are we...?" Helia suddenly spoke up and her brother rushed over to her side. "Easy Helia, we are in the Professor's mansion with the X-Men. We are safe...you are safe. Charles blocked your powers, are you feeling any better?" He asked his sister. "Yes I am...where..where is Remy?" she asked. Helios helped her sit up and smiled when Helia looked at Remy. "Thank you so much Remy...Tensa for helping me. Please thank the Professor and Hank as well for me." she said softly. Helios hit the button for Hank to come, he wanted the blue beast to check his sister out while she was still awake.

Tensa and Remy looked at each other hearing what had happened to the boy and both with out warning in anger tossed something. Tensa a throwing star which it the wall and Gambit made a card blow up mid air. Tensa was shaking now he got up and paced as Remy waited hoping he would calm down. Hearing Helia though made both look and relax seeing she was awake. Gambit nodded leaving while Tensa said to her. "Just take it easy. You could hurt yourself still without meaning to Hank did not want to poke for internal damage unless he had your consent." Tensa then moved to the couch as Hank came in a bag in hand seeing her awake he smiled and walked over. "If at any point you wish me to stop please say so. Fist let's check your lungs and heart I can listen through the shirt or if you want to slide the scope to where I say that works as well." He was standing and doing his best not to scare her. Hank knew he could be a sight for some and made sure to stay calm unless friends got hurt. Forge poked his head in and walked over to Tensa. "Shirt off now kid I ne-" He froze when Tensa glared at him daggers. Forge realized a girl was in the room and awake. " Crap." Tensa then dragged Forge to the off shoot room to the side.
Remy returned about ten minutes into the check up with tomato soup and grill cheese. "I promise no Cajun spice in it." Hank said."Good the young lady here is at least five to ten pounds under weight and I bet you young man are just as bad off as your sister. I want you two on a high carb and high protein diet until we can get you back up to a good weight. Also nothing to spicey until we know you do not have any viruses." Gambit set a tray on the bed side table for Helia and then set Helios on the coffee table. "We do not have any of those portable tables for now." He knew he might have to drag Helios to his food, but he was okay with that if the kid ate. Hank finished checking and said to Helia. "Well nothing too bad, but if you will let me I need blood sample maybe in a few days and make sure your vitamin count is alright. Until then rest and such if you truly wish to start school we can talk about classes in the room or outside on the deck until we know you are healthy. I am afraid a class room setting could stress you."
Tensa returned and he looked like he might kill Forge, who about ran out of the room. Remy frowned he knew that the pain was more emotional and mental now, but he could do nothing for it being Tensa had forbidden him to every change his emotions. Sitting on the couch with a half sigh Tensa looked like he was full on somewhere else mental wise though he would stay in the room unill they knew the kids were alright.

Helia and her twin tensed slightly when the anger vamped up in the room, however when the men calmed down Helia cocked her head to the side. She then went wide eyed as Hank made his way into the room. She smiled though as he began to speak to her. "Its fine, I have had worse, and your not scary to me at all." Helia said as she allowed the big furry blue beast to check her out and use his instruments on her. Helios never took his eyes off of the two of them though, even when Forge had come into the room, his eyes stayed on his sister. Helia then smiled wide when Remy made his way back in the room ten minutes later, he seemed to make her very happy when he was around her.
"Awe no Cajun food, I like that kind of stuff." Helia pouted but smiled when Remy brought her the food. She frowned though when Hank told her that her and her brother where underweight and could not have spicy food. She puffed her bottom lip out but did not argue as her brother smiled and patted her head. "Its fine Hank, thank you for checking her out." Helios said then turned to listen to Remy. Helios then nodded and looked down at the food on the coffee table. "Thank you Remy, its alright." Helios said and looked back at Hank when he was done. "You can take my blood when your ready." Helia said happily as her eyes stayed on Remy the whole time.
Helia frowned though when she said she could'n't be in the class room but she nodded telling him that she understood. Helia began to eat her food slowly as Helios did the same, his eyes landing gently on Tensa. Helios then turned to Hank and shut the door to the room so the five of them were alone. "Go ahead and check me out if you need to as well, get it done and out of the way I guess." Helios said as he pulled his shirt off, his scarred chest showing, a recent wound to his side bright red and healing still. Helia went pale now that she was finished eating and looked her brother over. "Helios, are you sure you want...well...Megneto did impale you rather badly a week ago." she croaked her mouth going dry.

Hank smiled at her re-actions to the words though seeing them as a good sign. "Only until we know it won't hurt you then Remy can blow your taste buds all he wants." Remy smiled. "I like the idea of that." He said and chuckled. Hank nodded and said to Helia. "All this is temporary until we know you kids are not going to open a wound or cause long term damage of any kind to yourselves. You can go to a class room once I know the stress won't send your lungs or heart into a panic." He paused though at the blood comment. "Well I am not comfortable with it until you have a few full meals in you. Then I'll come up and take some. Keep the button in case." Thinking he might leave he stopped when Helios mentioned being checked and looked at the scars. He felt his fur bristle just a little knowing some of the scars were surgical. Someone had used the beauty of medicine to harm these children and that was a crime in his eyes. Quickly though he forced himself to calm down as not to frighten or bother the kids or get Remy worked up.
Though they all got a shock when the young lady mentioned Helios had been impailed by Magneto. Remy gasped in French "Bon dieu." which meant something along, good God. Hank looked sad to hear his friend was falling even more. It was Tensa who would suddenly respond un-unexpectedly. He was standing and the sound of his left hand hitting the wall was heard. Luckily not breaking it the wall though hand lines in it as Tensa had made it hard enough not to brake from his blow. Pulling his hand back he relaxed and pulled his glove back over the metallic hand. Hank nodded then motioned for Helios to sit as Remy tried to calm Tensa down. Something was wrong with the stoic looking man. He looked drained and Remy could sense that Tensa emotionally was snapping somehow in his head. Though because the man was so fucking stubborn he would not talk about it to Remy.
Hank took about thirty minutes and said to Helios. "You will heal well I almost can not tell there is an internal injury. Best advice limit your powers, because they probably are stressing your body, sleep, eat and no physical work outs that will strain your core. I can check when I come back up tomorrow afternoon and see if it is better." Putting his things in his bag he said. "I must go now and check on a few others remember hit the bell if you need me." With that he took his leave shutting the door behind him.
human
Helia jumped when Tensa hit the wall and stared wide eyed at him, however Helios shrugged it off and then watched as Hank left a bit later. He then turned to Tensa and gently lifted his head and stared into the man's eyes. "You need to let your feelings out, speak to someone about what is bothering you. You are going to hurt a lot of people soon if you do not. I had the same problem awhile ago and I almost killed Helia because of it. If you ever want to speak to me I am here to listen Tensa, please go and get some rest." Helios said in a calm voice and looked over his scarred body. "Do not feel anger for what has happened to us either, its over and in the past. We must live happily and think of the future." he would continue to say.
Helia had snuck out of bed and made her way over to the others, she was a few inches shorter than her brother only 5'4 and 1/2. "Please Tensa, my brother doesn't like see you hurting. He can pick up pain as well and it draws him to help people. Please think about what he said." she would say gently touching his hand before she went pale and Helios grasped her and made her go back to bed. "Remy, I am going to try and get some sleep, could you please stay here over night and watch Helia for me? I hope that isn't too much to ask." he said handing Remy the button.
Helia kissed her brother's cheek before he walked away and stripped to his shorts, he slipped into bed and was sound asleep in the other room. "Its not going to be easy to wake him. He has been awake for four days, it might be a few days before he wakes up again." Helia said and cocked her head to the side. "And don't worry about his healing, he heals rather fast like Wade Wilson, you know Deadpool." she said and then leaned back in bed. Her own body covered in scars but she seemed to not even be bothered by any of them, she smiled happily at Remy then to Tensa, her tired eyes refusing to close to sleep.

To say he had zoned out was an understatement that was until someone touch him and he had to force himself not to lash out. Touch burned at him he was so unused to it and was worried it would hurt. Remy though watched as Tensa relaxed a little. The dark haired man was un-able to speak as Helios told him to rest. Remy though was stunned suddenly seeing Helia out of the bed and helped Helios get her back to bed. Once though she was in bed and Helios said he was going to lay down Remy simply took and button and said. "I'll make coffee." He went to the kitchen and started making a cup. Seeing Helia was up said. "You miss sleep. You force yourself to stay awake and I'll get Hank to give you a shot." He sat at the coffee table and started playing solitaire to pass the time. Though it was mostly to also let his mind relax, he could listen out for her as well as play the card game being a thief had taught him to multi-task in such a way.
Tensa was in the room still as well having told Remy to wake him if he needed a nap. Removing his glasses and letting his hair down he laid on a blanket and pillow on the floor. His face about berried in the pillow and he soon was out cold. Gambit knew Tensa would let the emotions build until they broke him. Remy had witnessed it before normally once a year the buried would just over power the man and make him sick. The screaming though was the worst even Charles could not figure out what caused it, but the snap always brought on at least half a days worth of just heart wrenching screams that only stopped either when Tensa's voice broke or he passed out. It also brought a fever and a week of bed rest. During which only Forge and Hank were allowed in the room. Remy sighed going back to his card game pushing the thoughts out of his head. Sipping his coffee every few minutes to keep any signs of tiredness away.
Tensa though woke around mid-night and got up needing to just get some air. Getting out of the room Tensa felt like his head was spinning and held it on both sides. He could feel all of them, every mutant, every human not just in the building but it was like all of the ones in the area of around ten miles were flooding his senses, he could locate them, hear them and feel what they felt. Grabbing his head he tried to force his powers into control but it felt worse the more he tried to control it.

Helia said nothing to Remy as she lay back down on her bed and stared at the wall the whole time, pretending to be asleep. Meanwhile Helios was growing more and more restless and he suddenly woke up with a start and made higs way out of the room when Tensa woke up. He could feel what was going on inside the man's head and he wanted to help. "Tensa, let me help you please." Helios said gently as he brought a glowing hand up and touched his own head with it. "I can help with the pressure, the pain and the noise of them in your mind." he said and then leaned forward. "Please, its not going to hurt you when I touch you I promise. If it does then you can kick the shit out of me later." he whispered softly, his black glowing hand gently touched Tensa's forehead.
Soon the older mutant would hear the noises dull and the pain leave and flood away. Helios narrowed his eyes and then pulled his hand back, he smiled weakly as his face went pale. "It should last until Charles might be able to help you." he croaked as he slumped weakly down into a chair. He soon would slip from his chair and hit the floor, the fever taking him over as it had his sister. His powers began to surge and he curled into a tight ball his eyes shut tightly. He was sweating badly as he held off the worst of it, he was a lot stronger than his twin sister was, but not by much. The sound was soon cut off in Tensa's head, though his pain would be very dull now as Helios surged.
Meanwhile Helia sat up and stared down at her brother, she bit her lip the pain shooting through her as well do too their connections. "HELIOS!" she cried and jumped down and pulled her brother into her grasp. Her body was trembling as Helios let out a cry of pain. "No...no he just wanted to help. Helios....damn it." she said looking about, her own fever returning but a lot more mild. He slammed her hand down on the button as it lay on the coffee table before she herself fell next to her brother trying to be a conduit for his our of control power. "Tell Hank....it..it was Megneto who made us unstable." she called before she passed out.

The voice of Helios made Tensa startle, but he did not fight mostly because he could not think straight and he just wanted it to stop for a little while. Feeling the cool of the pressure leaving his brain he re-acted as Helios fell. Remy hit the button and instantly had Helia in his arms before she even went fully out. Putting her in bed as Tensa got Helios to his. Hank was in the room and so was Charles both working most of the night into the morning to stabilize the kids. Remy was like a kicked puppy with worry for the to and Tensa felt like he had done this. Their responses to it all were like the sun and moon. While Remy stayed to help Tensa just vanished it seemed having gone to one of the cabins by the pond they had on the grounds he stayed there feeling he had hurt them. Just like you always doa voice said in his head and he flinched looking out at the water.
Charles put walls up with Emma's and Jean's help they sealed away as much as the power they could and they all agreed the walls would only come down one at a time until the twins had full control once more. If Remy was not fondling over them like a mother hen he was being forced to sleep by Jean who had to relent to letting him sleep on the couch in the room. The red haired woman sighed and sat down. It went on for at three days to be honest she lost count. Classes had been cancled and the students were all given task, to keep them out of trouble. Emma came in at one such time Remy was sleeping and stood by Jean. "Tensa is still refusing to come back here. Jean I know we do not always see eye to eye... but do you think something happened?" Jean nodded and said. "Tensa hides a lot from us he feels he must be perfect and calm and I think he is at the cabin because he is trying to get some self control again. Emma... do you mind grabbing me some coffee though?"
Emma nodded her head and left the two were still reforming their friendship, but they were long past the Scott thing. Jean made sure there was warm food for them to wake up to and woke Remy as she left. Remy also would order good food if the food got cold. He simply put it in the fridge as left overs. Also he changed the towels over their eyes and made sure they were not to hot or cold.

Helios was still out and would be out for awhile but Helia woke up with a start and stared around her. Her eyes landed weakly on Remy and she groaned her head pounding, however she looked around for Tensa. "How, how long have we been out?" Helia asked him as she looked over at her sleeping brother. She then stared down at the IV in her arm and let out another long and angry sigh. "Damn it....this is all my fault. It all started with me and my powers going out of control. Then it effected your friend after Helios, now Tensa blames himself for what happened. It is not his fault it is Helios's fault for pushing himself to damn much." Helia said more to herself than too Remy, however she ignored the food that sat beside her right away.
Helios would wake a few hours later with a start and look about him, his mind felt fuzzy while his inner mind and head hurt badly. "You stupid idiot, thanks for making Tensa blame himself." Helia spat at him. "I'm sorry...I just wanted to take his pain away, he is a nice guy and I like him." Helios said and pouted. "When you are better you are going to apologize to him for being an idiot." snarled Helia before she smacked Helios across the face, but not enough to cause him much pain. Helios sighed and slumped back into his bed and and stared up at the ceiling. "Maybe it would be better if Megneto had just killed us, then we wouldn't be such burdens." Helios said.
Helia shook her head ignoring her brother as she started to eat some rice and whatever else was on her plate. She ate slowly and made sure not to over stuff herself. Though she grew annoyed and glared down at the IV in her arm wanting to pull it out but she stopped herself. "I am bored, can we please get out of bed and do something." Helios muttered. "Shut up, you have done enough damage." Helia growled at him as she looked over at Remy. "Thanks for the food, do you think the Professor knows we are awake now?" she asked him sweetly. Helios sighed and rolled over turning his nose up to food. "I won't eat a thing until Tensa comes back so I can say sorry to him." he stated.

Remy watched and listened to the entire thing though it was testing him like a damn time bomb. It did not help he was tired as hell and had slept like shit the last few nights. Finally when he could get a word in he spoke calmly, but his voice full of a tone saying they better damn well listen to him and listen good." Okay for starters you have been out for five days. Next you pull the IV's out Rem'll have Hank tie you to the damn bed and put it back in because hell if you let yourself get dehydrated. You are not to leave bed again until Hank checks you both or you got to use a can. Also Rem is not moving you with all those cords Hank will kick his ass and as much as Hank looks like a big blue teddy bear he is not called Beast for nothin." He took a breath and waited once they showed they under stood he sat up in his chair more. Red eyes on black looking them over he wanted to make sure they were paying attention to the next part, because he was only saying it once.
"Now stop blamin yourselves for everythin and blamin each other fuckin hell you two are acting like lil kids. Sorry, but you are eighteen and start acting it please. This is no one's fault it is called fate, just like when Remy use Tarot it all falls in place. Remy has one frien who hates himself for bein born don need two more. Understand? Good. No more talk of wishin you was dead, no more blamin each other. You rest, you heal and you move forward." He rubbed his face and mumbled. "Remy needs coffee...." He sighed and looked at them and smiled lightly then adding. "Tensa will come when Tensa is ready no point makin yourself sick over it. He will come aroun." Remy went to stand but felt dizzy needing sleep. Groaning he jumped when someone said. "Don't you look like a morning bird Remy?" Tensa walked in and said. "Bed and I mean on a bed Remy not the couch go lay down and stretch out. I'll wake you later." Remy did not argue and left the room looking much like a zombie.
Tensa took a seat then facing both them. Sighing he said. "What we going to do with you two? The kids love you though they have not had school in a week. Charles is busy at the current moment and Hank is checking on Kitty who you will meet soon enough. She went and got hurt and now has Hank worried." He looked at Helios. "Eat something." He ordered sounding like an older brother more than anything. "It is one thing for me to go and beat myself up, but you two go and start in I'll have to bang your heads together."
human
Helios just growled in one of his moods and said nothing as he listened to Remy as the mutant scolded them. Helia nodded her head as well as she watched Tensa come in and Remy leave. She yelled sorry to Remy before he left and let out a sigh feeling sad and lonely now that her favorite mutant other than her brother was gone. Helios grumbled at Tensa when the older male told him to eat. "Before you go scolding us, I want you to know it not your fault were hurting, it was our powers nothing more." Helios said to Tensa as he rolled over to face him. He pushed the food away feeling sick to his stomach at the smell of it, he pulled the blanket up and over his nose with his left hand, his IV glowing slightly as he shifted himself in his bed.
"I am sorry that we caused the kids to miss their classes, me and Helios are planning on leaving once we are better. That way things can go back to normal then once we are gone." Helia suddenly spoke up. They were twins and they had a strange connection, they must have been speaking to each other inside their minds while they were out. "It would be safer for everyone else as well if we leave. I heard SHIELD is willing to lock us away." Helios muttered but Helia slapped him. "We are not going to get locked up idiot, now stop sulking and eat your damn food." she snapped at her older brother. Helios sighed and did as his sister told him, he slowly ate half his plate before laying back down again.
"Helios turns into an idiot when he gets depressed." Helia explained as she la back down the two twins staring at Tensa. "We have had problems with hate against ourselves since we were little. Every time we hit a low point the feelings come up. It will take a bit before we get better." Helia went on to say. Helios rolled over and pulled his knees up to his chest, his hand resting on his side where he had been impaled. "I wish we were hanging with Wade again, at least he makes doom and gloom funny." Helios laughed softly before coughing. Yawning Helia lay back down and soon was fast asleep under the covers.
Helios turned over and stared at Tensa with pale eyes, you could see he had lost his color and pep, he was filled with depression. "I feel like my heart is broken again, last time it broke was when my boyfriend dumped me, betrayed me and joined Megneto." he said and yawned softly. However he just kept staring at Tensa a small smile on his lips. "It made me very happy though that I was able to help you. It gives me something to look forward in life when I help people." Helios said as his smile grew a bit wider. "So you stop beating yourself up and we will do the same thing, deal?" he said and coughed again while he laughed.

Tensa waited and waited finally saying to them. "You are not leaving kidding me Remy would chase after you two like a damn dog on a fox hunt. I know him and I know when he likes someone. Trust me he likes you two. You leave him He will throw a fit and beg me to locate you." He watched Helios eat and said. "Trust me it'll help the IV feel less druggy when you eat." He then grabbed a book walking over and sitting on the bed. He looked at Helia. "No... no Wade... He is bad he has no trouble killing and if you say that name to Logan... well can you run faster than thirty five miles?" He smiled. "You are not the only Mutants with guilt. I am going to tell you a few things, but you repeat it to the students I am giving you three ten page papers each." He turned sitting cross legged, he had changed only in black sweat pants, white socks, and a white tank top fully exposing his metal arm. The cold grey silver of the steel a contrast to his fair skin. Finally he spoke once he was sure they were all set as well.
"Logan cannot remember who he is up to about ten or fifteen years ago, Remy used to be a thief in a guild where they fought and killed other men in a group called the Assassins. Rouge killed her boyfriend with her powers, Bobby and Pyro were a thing until Pyro left. Scott cheated on Jean with Emma... now that was a shit storm. Trust me there are many more painful things in us. Like the fact I could not save my father or the ten people that gun man killed. We all have our pains." He smiled though motioning in a circle around them. "This place though, this place is a place you can learn. Learn to help others and make good memories to out weigh the bad ones. A place where you can make a new, slightly dysfunctional but loving family. So, do not go. Stay here and learn. Emma and Jean put walls in your heads so you will have to relearn your powers from square one almost. It is so you can learn them the proper was this time and not have them all come rushing out."
Feeling tired Tensa stretched a little and yawned. "Now then you." He looked at Helios. "Trust me when I say it get's better." Grabbing a blanket he put it over the other man and rubbed it a few times to make sure Helios was warm. Then he went and tucked Helia in more as well being her feet were out. "You miss need to stay warm. Remy will murder me if I let you get a fever. Trust me he can live up to the name Demon Eyes if mad enough."
human
Helios blinked and wondered why Remy was so attached to the two of them already, however he kept his mouth shut as he let Tensa speak to him and his sister. Helia just stared at the man as he told them about a few things that had happened between the mutants in this academy. When Tensa was done speaking Helios reached his hand out and held gently onto Tensa's good hand. "I trust Wade more than I trust Logan but listening to you, well we will stay for awhile. But we have killed as well, we killed many an evil human or mutant and felt no guilt." Helios whispered as his eyes got more color in them. "I think Remy likes one of more than just a friend." Helia giggled after she had been tucked in and then smirked as she rolled over. She had felt the feelings rising inside Remy towards her but she had kept her mouth shut mostly.
"Please don't leave Tensa, I feel a lot more calmer when your around." Helios whispered and pulled the older male back towards him as Helia fell asleep, curled up in a tight ball. Helios rolled over and stared up into the older male's eyes a flush slightly on his cheeks. "I had nightmares when you were gone, but it seems when you are around me they don't attack anymore. Your a good mutant Tensa and I like you, I am glad we met." Helios whispered his cheeks going redder before he was forced to look away and let out a heavy sigh. It seemed to relax him whenever Tensa touched his body.
Helia began to snore and Helios suddenly broke out laughing softly. "Don't worry she won't wake up even if you laugh at her." Helios whispered fighting the urge to sleep. Helios's skin would be warm to the touch as he stared into the older male's eyes. "If you promise to stay, here with me on the bed then I will promise that I will go to sleep." Helios said softly. Helia meanwhile was dreaming about the time she had sent Wade flying into a boat where he had been harpooned through the ass cheeks. A smile came to her face as she continued to sleep, Helios blushed seeing the dream in his mind and he laughed. "So what do you say Tensa?" he asked and looked the older male over, seeing his metal arm as just a part of the man he was starting to care for.

Tensa shrugged and stated simply. "It is not our place to judge on whose life should be taken. Killing is a last resort here, but I am sure you will fit in just fine." When Helia mentioned Remy he chuckled and said. "Would not surprise me if he liked you like that, While it is fast for a normal person to go head over heals in just a few days. Remy is different. He knows who he likes, who he doesn't and who he loves within moments of meeting them." He let her go to sleep then and at her snoring smiled and said. "You think she is bad go camping with Logan someday guy sounds like a god damn bear." Moving over to the bed he sat down and smiled at the other and said. "Alright, but be careful people might talk." voiced filled with teasing tone as he spoke to the other. The he sat down on the bed book in hand. "Noe get some shut eye okay? I'm not going anywhere."
He did not leave he stayed there reading, a hand lightly tracing in the boys hair every so often. He called Gambit after six hours just to check on him. Remy came in a little later and switched the food trays out and said. "You go to bed Tensa Remy will watch em." Tensa pointed to the boy almost in his lap. "Kinda stuck." Remy shrugged, "Then sleep there better dan makin yourself sick no?" Agrruing to that Tensa let Remy take his book and carefully moved so he was lightly holding the other boy. Remy covered them and he sat to the side humming an old tune from home. Charles came and checked on their minds as they slept or what he could as Hank looked over their readings and said. "They'll be okay as long as they stay resting. Most they should do is maybe go out to the landing and let the sun warm them." Remy nodded his thanks to the two men and returned to just looking over the book. Leave it to Tensa to be reading a classic.
In his sleep Tensa was shaking a little only to full on about cuddle poor Helios. The young man clearly having some mini nightmare or maybe just needed the contact. He hid that need most of the time while most thought he hated being touched he wanted it. It was why it burned when he was touched, because he needed it so bad. Tensa wanted people he wanted to understand they were safe and let them know he cared. As a twenty five year old teacher he personally felt for all his students and the other Mutants in the X Mansion. How could he not? His metal arm was under the pillow his right arm over Helios and his hair was a mess to say the least.

Helia would slightly wince when Remy came in only to roll over in her sleep and bury her head in the pillows. However she grunted when she felt the warm hand of Charles on her forehead but it seemed to not bother her too much. Helios meanwhile just clung sleepily to Tensa only slightly awake when Hank and Charles looked over him. However he would fall into a deeper sleep once they were gone, his head resting close to Tensa's shoulder allowing the older male to pull him into a cuddle. It didn't bother Helios being pulled into Tensa's grasp, it felt right and comforting for him. He could also sense the need that Tensa had to be touched so he would allow it to happen. Helios muttered something in his sleep before he buried his head deeper into the older male's chest and began to relax.
Helia would wake up with a start and let out a heavy sigh, sitting up in bed she would stare around her feeling alone. She stared over at Tensa and Helios, a small smile came to her lips before she turned and looked at Remy. "Lucky bastard, not fair though. I am used to sleeping with Helios, I can't really fall back to sleep now being alone." Helia muttered as she sat on the side of her bed. She didn't try to stand up though, she was just getting the blood moving through her limbs. She swung her legs back and forth a bit before she shut her eyes enjoying the feeling of the blood returning to them.
She then would let out a sigh and lay back down, she pulled the blanket around her staring at Remy. "Can you take me outside Remy, its cold in here and I want to feel the sun." she asked him softly. Helia was not sure why but she wanted the Cajun close to her, touching her for some reason. She used to prefer only her brother's touch but she knew that had changed, now she wanted Remy's touch. As she thought about this a huge blush took over her face and she turned her head to stare out the window so that Remy could not see how red her face had gotten.
gpt
It was quiet and Remy had been making some food for when the two woke up. Hearing her he turned his head and said. "Don' worry Tensa won't go stealin your brother he too proper for that." Making two plates he put Helios' on the bed side table and paused when she asked to go outside. Thinking it over a few moments he finally nodded his head once and said. "Alrigh' but just give Rem a moment." Going back into the kitchen he took out a lunch box and put the food in that figuring he would try to get her to eat while out side. Next he took some hot tea and put it in a thermos to stay warm. Satisfied he grabbed a deck of cards last so they could possibly play a game or two. Walking into the side room he grabbed a wheel chair. "Got to use one of these Hank's orders until he knows you are not gonn pass out on us." Carefully he helped Helia into the chair and nodded once she was set to be moved. Then going behind the chair he pushed her outside to the flat patio area.
The stones on the ground were a range of browns, tans, white and black. There was a table to the side which he wheeled her up to. It seemed some kids were out on the lawn playing with each other some using their powers others playing more human friendly games so to speak. Giggling and laughing could be heard from them as they played. All this gave a feel to it as if it was truly real and a safe place that could not be touched by any outside forces. He set the lunch box down with a napkin and fork. "Try eatin some while we are out here. Need to try and get you off the IV." Sitting down to her left he took out his cards and just shuffled them to keep his hands busy. Hearing someone call from the lawn he looked down from the patio and saw two students. Both asking when classes might start back up. He explained to them not to worry and that the classes would probably start back up the following Monday if everything went smoothly.
Sitting back and facing her once more he said. "Some of them like it some of them don. Kinda cute to see different re-actions." The cards made a flicking paper like sound as he played with them in his hand and said." But Hank hopin we can get you two all set by Wednesday to at least walk around freely then maybe the Monday after start a few classes. It all depends on how you two feel though." That was true no one wanted to push the kids too hard least of all Hank he was a kind soul who just wanted to use his Medical skills to help. "So, is there any classes or like? I imagine you guys went to school a little."

Helia sighed not overly happy she had to go in a wheelchair but she did not argue or complain about it to Remy. However when the kids came over she pulled her blanket around her tightly and stared down at the table not wanting to speak to the other kids or have them stare at her. Once they had left she turned to look at Remy when he began to speak to her again. She bit her lip not ready to reply right away, she thought about what he had said for a few minutes then ran a hand over the bridge of her nose. "I wish me and Helios had stayed in Mexico, the flood is so blah and plain up here." she muttered and stared at what he had put in front of her.
She then looked down at the IV in her arm and let out another sigh, she picked up the fork and began to eat, though she wasn't happy about it. "Taste's like cardboard, I'd rather have bangers and mash like back home." she grumbled her accent becoming very thick. "And I am not worried about Tensa stealing Helios, I like him and know he is a good guy." she said softly. Once she had finished her plate she pushed it away and stuck her tongue out making a blah noise. "I rather have Mexican or Cajun. I am not eating anymore plain food after this." she said but a smile crept to her face.
"As for classes, well I am not we are gonna take them or not. Helios and me don't really get along with other mutants, our age very well." she said and looked away. "We were schooled though before our parents died and after that. My brother and me what you Americans call high school graduates. Helios wanted to college though, but having to look after me...he never got to." she said brushing her hair out of her eyes. She turned her head watching as some shadows crept towards her and seemed to surround her in a mist. "We rather stick to the shadows if you know what I mean." she said as the darkness faded.

Listening to her speak Remy chuckled saying. "Not all food is bad. You need the plain food until we know your stomach won't flip. Give it just a day, okay? After that Remy will go shopping and cook you up something a lil stronger." He was a little sad she mentioned maybe not staying for classes. He sighed and said to her. "Helia you can no go through life with just you and your brother. I'll kill you... Non all the kids get along, but we all understand that we need each other. Besides I am sure you would at least like Kitty or Magik. Those girls are friendly may' a little shy, but nice. Emma also likes you two. I know she will wanna talk to you at least. Rem knows he wants you to stay." He took the food back and closed it up. He would not beg them to stay, but he also understood how life alone worked. It was lonely, dangerous and filled with a lot of bad things. Brotherhood and the Government after you if you showed up on their radars and Remy had a feeling these two had both party's interest. Going to speak he jumped also when suddenly Kitty popped out out of the wall. "Gambit hide me." She wined and suddenly was behind them.
"You runnin from Hank?" Kitty nodded her head then smiled and waved at Helia. "Hi, I am Kitty Pryde nice to meet you." She looked at Gambit. "Yes, I am hiding Hank want's me to stay in bed one more day. I cannot I hate it in the medical wing all that white is creepy." Chuckling Remy said. "Kitty go back and try to calm down you know you cannot out run Hank. Besides he probably will tell Lady Frost he is lookin for you." Sighing with defeat Kitty nodded and walked off waving goodbye and slipping back through the wall. "Never a dull momen' here." Remy mused and started to set up a game of cards. "You know poker?" He asked her as he gave her some. "As for classes Remy suggest at least the ones for controlling your powers so you do not have an attack again."
Inside Tensa woke up and sighed. He would have sat up, but Helios was laying on his left arm. How the kid could lay over his metal arm and not be uncomfortable Tensa had no idea. Carefully he moved able to get up and opened the blinds along with the windows to let fresh air in. Soon he started to just tidy the room a little making sure the kids would not have to deal with the mess. His dark hair was in a ponytail once more though the long bangs were in his eyes a little.

Helia felt bad when she saw that sad look in Remy's eyes and she bit her lip. She was about to say something until Kitty came out of nowhere. Helia grunted then nodded to Kitty when she introduced herself. "Uh...hi...Helia." she mumbled and looked away. She watched as Kitty left then turned back and looked at Remy before taking the cards from him. "Fine...I will stay for you." she said gently and smiled weakly when he handed the cards to her. "I never really played any card games like poker before but I can figure it out." she said and slowly touched his hand a smile came to her lips. She slowly moved her hand back after and leaned in her wheel chair.
"I look forward for you to cook me something, I do love Cajun food. I wonder if you can blow me away with it like your looks do." she whispered her face going red. She then shivered and brought her cards up to her face and stared them over. "I will go to the power control classes as well but me and Helios do better being taught one on one." she whispered. She then groaned and stretched out in her chair getting sore, slowly she managed to use her shadows to help her stand for a few seconds. "Sorry my ass was getting numb." she said and sat back down in her chair.
Helios groaned and rubbed his eyes when Tensa got up, he then slowly looked about the room. "What time is it? Oh its morning already." he muttered and slowly pushed himself out of bed. "I was having such a nice dream Tensa, but when you woke up well you woke me up as well." he said as a flush came across his face. His stomach growled lowly and he flushed even worst. He reached over to his food and grabbed it, he then began to wolf it down. "I was wondering if I could walk around a bit, I feel numb in the ass." he muttered.

Remy nodded his head to her and said. "Remy can have it set for just you two in classes though Rem would suggest maybe at least a third student just for dynamic." Her words on his looks got a big old grin on has face and he laughed. "Okay, okay.... Just try okay? No rush, but would you not rather have at least a few good friends? Like me Everyone here is a friend, but I only trust a few with my back." Going back to the cards he watched her get up careful she did not get her IV caught and yank it out. Smiling at her as she made a comment about a numb ass a chuckled left him and he said. "Sounds like an invite to slap it." Teasing her he then said. "I guess a little walk won't hurt you non, but take it easy." Normally he would be yelling at her to get in the chair, but she seemed to have it under control and he did not want to seem pushy. So, he just kept close to her as she moved so she did not fall and hurt herself more.
Tensa listened to the other and laughed. "Sorry I did not mean to wake you." Watching Helios eat he nodded his head saying. "Good if you eat I am sure you'll feel better soon." He looked at the time and sighed. "Well you can walk down to the danger room with me I promised one of the students a spar so they can show my how they are improving. You will have to stay to the side but at least you can move about and stretch out your legs. Also I want you to meet a few kids. I know you and your sister are probably loners, but at least try to see if anyone seems like a possible friend." He stopped when a knock came on the door and walked over opening it seeing Emma Frost. He stepped aside so she could step in to the room. "Emma what is it?" She said. "The kids are planning to leave I was hoping to try and convince them to stay at least I mean.... I know you and Remy and I know you are pushing yourself as is." He was about to speak as she cut him off. "Do not say you are not pushing your limits Tensa. I may nit be able to get in your head but I know you. They do not call you Living Cerebro for nothing. You are spending countless hours trying to locate Mutants for us to help. You are going to hurt yourself at this rate."
Emma knew Helios was awake in the room, but she did not care. The kids in her mind were selfish and ungrateful to even think about leaving after all Remy, Tensa, Hank and the others had done. Tensa wanted to tell her to shut up but knew that was not happening. "Tensa I am not trying to be mean, but I rathe rnot get a call someday that you dropped in your class room." He sighed and crossed his arms. "And... will you stop messing with this?" She pointed to his arm. "You keep resetting the internal workings." He rolled his eyes. "You done mom?" She glared but smiled and said. "Yes, but try to at least take it easy. Also did you really give the kids all ten page papers?" Tensa shrugged and said. "Had to keep them busy." She laughed and left the room.

She flushed when Remy said it was an invite to slap her ass. She then smirked back at him and began to walk about with him at her side. She made sure to let him stay close to her and she stayed slow just in case she weakened and fell. "Hey Remy...I will try to make friends but with the life we have had, I don't trust anyone my own age very easily. Not to mention the last person my age who I thought was my friend ended up running me through with a piece of rebar." she said lifting the sleeve of her shoulder and showing him the huge scar she had that had just missed her heart. "They worked for the Government and tried to take me and Helios out." she whispered.
She then bit her lip and slowly took hold of Remy's hand as they walked and leaned in against him so that she would stop shaking for a bit. "Its really hard Remy, I hate most people and half the kids here well I sense them and they are all just a bunch of perverted hormonal teens." she said though a huge smile came to her lips. "Though...I think I know one of the mutants here, they call him Nightcrawler, he saved my life once. I wouldn't mind seeing him again, is he still here?" she asked and stared up into his eyes. She kept her hand gently holding his, a shiver running down her spine as she thought about how good he smelt to her.
Helios glared at Emma Frost as she burst in before he was able to reply to what Tensa had said. However when she had left and the door closed behind her he sighed. "I don't like her....anyways Helia had decided we are staying but she said we are only going to take the control classes for our power." Helios said and walked over to Tensa. "I think I will skip the sparring, since I won't be able to do it myself it will just make me frustrated." he said and hung his head. He then blinked and smirked softly as a thought of his sister's crossed his mind and he began to laugh. "Seems like Helia really has a thing for your friend Remy, sorry we can talk to each other through our minds since we are twins." he muttered.

Tensa blinked at Heilos and said. "Emma's heart is in the right place. She does not like you two because that time you were at the West Coast with Wade and killed a few people you killed one of her students in the cross fire. She saw it when she was trying to seal your sister's illness back and about had a mental break down. Wade has killed a few of our friends because we got in his way. Look I can tell you guys do not want to be here. I can see it whenever I mention the kids. You think they are stupid and dumb. It is because we are trying to let them be kids. You and your sister were forced to grow up and not have a childhood really and what you did have sucked. So, sorry if the kids bother you, that is our fault for not forcing them to be anything but kids." He shrugged and said. "If you go for a walk just be sure to not pull the IV out Hank will remove them later today." He paused when the door was knocked on again, cracking it he saw a student. "Just wait Mary I'll be right out." She nodded and backed up from the door. Setting the cloth he had been using to clean down he walked out in the hall.
Listening to her Remy frowned and said. "Wow you are harsh. Almost mean even to your own age group. Tell me something what is wrong with being a kid. Remy knows he wished he could have been a kid more. That why he and the others fight to make sure they can be as normal and let them be the slightly stupid an horminal teenagers they should be. Is that a crime?" He listened and said. "Kurt isn' here he takin a few weeks off be back later in the month." Normally Remy would be calm, but he did not see why Helia and her brother were so harsh on everyone for simply being normalish. Then again a crap hand had been given to them growing up. They just needed to learn not everyone was out to kill them he guessed. It made him shrug and sigh. He could sense they would leave one way or another it was a mater of time. As much as she tried to say they would stay he could sense the inner lie in her emotions and knew not to even try to attach to much. It was Tensa he was worried for. Tensa had gone out of his way to even find the kids after Wade gave them a heads up about the kids and their powers. Scott had been against it as had Logan, kids willing to kill just because they were in danger might go off and harm the kids in the building. Tensa though had fought to find the two and try to help them. Spending days trying to locate them and finally he had. Now they had found them and it seemed they anted to leave and not even take advise from the wiser Mutants like Hank and Charles. Remy could understand to a point where they were coming from, but he also was trying not to judge being he knew he never would know the full story.
Remy would have spent more time until a small phone buzzed. Looking at it he said" Remy got to go. Lilly!" He called to a blond girl who came over. "Make sure Helia get's to her room. Rem got to go." Lilly frowned. "What happened?" He sighed. "Brotherhood." She nodded understanding and watched Remy run off looking at Helia. Sensing Helia did not trust her or maybe even not like her at all she looked down instantly. "Oh um sorry." She quickly said. Tensa had looked in the room at Helios. "I have to go the Brotherhood is up to something. Jean is staying here so you need something just mentally yell her name. If you walk and such do not push it." With that Tensa ran off as well. Emma Frost, Remy, Scott and Logan were all in the jet when he got there they had to stop the Brotherhood though Emma could sense something was wrong with Tensa and Remy.

Helia and Helios just closed in on their selves and shut up instantly. They didn't look back Remy or Tensa when the men talked to them. They just stared at the floor and forced a block up so that no one could get into their mines or read their emotions. Helia allowed Lily to take her back to the room but she said nothing the whole while they walked. Once they were alone in the room Helia turned to her brother and bit her bottom lip. "Uncle was right, we will always be freaks no matter how hard we try to open up we will just end up getting hurt again." Helia croaked as tears ran down her cheeks. Helios hugged her close and ran a hand through her hair trying to calm her down. "You met Kitty Pryde didn't you, we should just give it a chance." Helios whispered. "I really don't know anymore, but she was nice and I felt I could trust her." Helia whispered.
However the twins suddenly froze as a presence began to loom over the mansion. Helia froze and Helios went wide eyed, a shiver ran up his spine. "No...no how could he find us...no we can't stay here we put them in danger." Helios croaked. Helia knew it was Megneto and he was here for the two of them. "Come on, lets go before anyone else gets killed because of us." he whispered Helia nodded and burned a note into the wall for them. "I am sorry to say that Megneto has picked up on where we are. We are leaving before he attacks the mansion. We are sorry for everything, however we won't let anyone else get killed because of us." she had written before the pulled their IV's out.
"P.S. Thank you for everything you have done for us, the Elementals." she had written at the end. Soon they vanished through the shadows only to shoot into the sky where Helia put a massive barrier over the mansion. Her brother shot past her and grabbed Megneto by his arm and they shot towards the bay. Helia was straining as the blocks began to break in her mind, she fought for control though. Once Megneto was away however she ran towards the bay with out looking back. They would be able to be seen fighting from the mansion windows out in the bay, things were not looking very good for either of the twins as they fought their hardest.
Helios felt tears streaming down his cheeks as Megneto landed another punch to his face, sending blood from his mouth and nose flying. "I am not going to join you and I am not going to let you hurt the mutants under Charles teachings." Helios spat. Helia joined him now her body aflame as her anger surged. Soon she began to battle against the metal shrapnel that Megneto was sending at her. They twins were being pushed to their wits end, bleeding and bruised, however after a few hours they had managed to dent Megneto up enough that he left only to promise that he would be back for them if they lived.
Helia lay on her side staring over at her brother as he plucked rebar out of his flesh. Helia sighed and slowly pushed herself up so that she was sitting, she stared around the bay. "I am just glad the city and the mansion is safe. But I don't think I have another fight left in me to go against Megneto." she whispered as blood ran down her lip. Helios couldn't stand, one of his legs was slowly trying to heal while Helia just had no energy left. "I have a feeling they took the other's away to come after us. I know we are going to get yelled at for not calling for help but I don't care, it feels good to help the innocent." Helia whispered.

Emma had sence the shift in the air and barked at Scott that they needed to go back. He looked like she had shot him and said. "Emma they are attacking the city."
"And Magnito is attacking them the stupid kids put a wall on the school and are fight-" She did not finishing as suddenly Tensa spun and used the emergency hatch to leep from the jet. Using his powers he changed the energy field around him enough to land though he was winded and his head was ringing. Landing he waited for the spinning to stop before running towards the school. Warning Charles who had already alerted Hank and Jean. The students were all told to go into the school and wait once they were in Angel and Logan also left. However when they got there Magnito was already gone, but not far. The kids looked bad and Tensa felt sick to his gut. Jean also looked sad and Hank looked like he was torn between scolding them and caring again. Logan just looked annoyed. "You two have a death wish don't you?" The gruff man said. "Wings can you heal them?" Angel nodded and went over to heal. Jean said. "He is coming back. They need to get to safety." Hank nodded then looked as they seem to be thinking.
Tensa spoke first. "Hank you need to treat them Angel can only heal enough to get them out of the woods, Jean and Angel can fly so they are best to carry the kids back. Logan needs to go to protect the school in case Magnito is stupid and attacks. I can stay here and hold him off." Logan barked. "Are you mad?!" Eyes flashing as two guns formed in his hands. "You got a better plan? No. So, get moving." Jean sighed taking Helia and using her powers to put the girl to sleep. Angel grabbed Helios carefully and made sure the kid could not slug him. Logan and Hank bolt to the Mansion as Jean and Angel flew above. They did not waist time though they could hear gun fire knowing Tensa was dealing with the other Mutant.
Once back they went to the medical room Hank called Kitty to help Jean while he worked to make sure Helios would be alright. Jean started to reform the walls over the two twin's minds as Kitty not taking no for an answer to help Helia as best she could her movements screaming for Helia to shut up, sit still and let herself be helped for once. Hank stayed focused on Helios and looked sad feeling he had failed the two somehow. It took three hours but by the end they would find themselves in their room once more.
When the other X-Men returned Remy went t the room to check on them and was happy they were okay. Glad to see them not in the medical wing he frowned not seeing Tensa. He called Jean wondering what was going on. Jean came in and moved Remy to the side knowing he did not want to leave the twins. She stayed quiet as she could saying. "Tensa is in the medical wing he is not good. Using his powers to track the kids and make sure they got back here safe then turning around and fighting Magnito got him badly hurt. His false arm was totaled and he is in a mental brake fever and all. We should have never left him." She looked upset and Remy said. "Shhh shh.. we got the twins back safe and now they no' with that mad man getting who knows what is done. Hopefully they can learn to trust us. Think I upset Helia earlier that might be why they left. Also Tensa wan'ed you to leave to keep em safe." Jean nodded and rubbed her face and left. Remy sat down on the couch and groaned.

Helios wasn't there really the whole time they had been worked on, he just stared into space like there was no sings of life left in him. He had felt what had happened to Tensa and he blamed himself for it, he felt guilt and sickness at the same time. He allowed them to put mental blocks on him but he would not let them any further into his mind, to feel how he felt or anything deeper. Helia didn't fight as well when she was taken and worked on, she just did the same thing as her brother, stared off into space with out a complaint or thrash of anger.
Her mind was on other things though and she had began to shut down the more she thought of all the people she had killed, though while she slept she would scream and cry out, tossing and turning but no one could comfort her. "You know you guys should be more thankful towards those two twins. They risked their lives to save every kid in the school, even though they had been scolded for how they had been raised." came a voice as a girl with shaggy blonde hair appeared. Her name was Lynx and she was a weapon X like Logan. However she had been at the school for two years not, however she had been away on a mission.
She looked Remy over and then walked towards the twins staring them up and down. "I don't think either of them will be coming out of that state anytime soon Remy, Jean." the feral said. She then turned and looked the two older mutants over. "Helios won't wake up until Tensa is better and Helia, her heart is broken and she has no self esteem left. Yet they risked their lives to save us. I wish I was hear sooner to help out." Lynx said as she pushed her hair out of her eyes, her fangs glinting in the late night light from the moon.
"As for those mental blocks, they are not going to last very long. I can ask Stark for the injections to remove their powers, it would be safer for everyone." Lynx said and slumped onto the couch and put her boots on the coffee table. "Oh and Remy, you might want to apologize to Helia if you want to wake her up. I heard from a little birdy with how harsh you were with her, not to mention with how harsh Tensa had been with Helios before he left." Lynx said as her face grew cold.

Lynx would get a shock as Gambit suddenly spun and left the room his mind sealed like a trap. Jean crossed her arms at the blonde. "Well that was nice of you make him want to bury himself more. Not like he does not already. If those walls in his head get any tighter we risk having him loose all emotional ability. As for how harsh they were on the kids. I do not care what the birdy said, but the kids were not nice to them either. They are safe here yet the moment they wake up they speak about leaving. Yes, I know that they want to protect all us thinking they are safer out there than with us. Remy was just being logical, sure he did not say it in the most graceful of forms, but he was trying to explain why the kids here do not act like the twins. It is because we try to let them act like they have a normal life. I remember when you came too. You were all stuck up thinking you did not need anything or anyone. Until the day Emma took a bullet for you from weapon X. You remember how much like shit you felt? We are trying to get the kids to understand they can trust a little, we are not asking them to jump off a cliff or anything, but damn it all Lynx you just have to go and make it worse right at this moment." Jean was upset, but only because she was witnessing her family rip apart.
"Why don;t both you ladies shut it and get out?" Came a voice and Jean jumped spinning to see Tensa. He walked in and looked mad as fuck. "Lynx go say sorry to Remy for being a royal bitch to him. Also stop talking down about both of us when you think we cannot here you. Sure what I said to Helios was not the softest thing but he needs to make up his mind as does Helia. If they wanted to be treated like adults then they need to be ready for the harsh words of an adult, but if they rather wine and bitch like kids then they need to get off their high horses and acting like they do not need anyone. They may have saved the shielded the school but trust me Charles would not have let Magnito near it or near them if they had just sat still." Tensa almost never got mad, but he was fed up with everyone acting like they knew what was best for everyone else and he would not taker sass from the blond because frankly she loved being a bitch to others and digging at wounds. "Now just get out I'll stay in here. Scott is looking for you Jean and Lynx it best you get out or I am telling X-23 to get up here and drag you out. You do not just come back from not telling anyone where you are and start barking orders and insulting us. I find it Ironic that the moment you come back the Brotherhood attacks." He then made sure she left. He hated this all of it. It was why he told Charles he was leaving once he knew the kids were safe. He needed to get away he needed time off and it was clear the kids hated Remy and him now.
Tensa stayed to the side just speaking not thinking they would listen. Why would they?"You two are rash and stupid you know that. But you're also incredibly selfless which makes you better than most. You were willing to just leave and probably get yourselves killed or worse experimented on just because you were afraid for people you did not even know. Look I am not going to simply say sorry for speaking my mind at all times. However I am not faulting you for yours. I just wish you could trust us or someone. It is clear though you rather just stay with one another. So, Charles is talking to Tony Stark nice guy a little bit of a dick but nice. Stark has a bracelet that can hide your powers and you from people like me and the government. You can leave and be on your way. We wont chase you, you made it clear you do not want to be here. I am sorry you have been hurt I am sorry you cannot trust even silly hormonal teenagers who think you guys are awesome by the way for keeping the school safe. Remy is sorry too he just cannot say it because the man is in the middle of trying to keep his brain from going nuts. Emotional empathy does that to him. Lynx is right though we were harsh. However you acted like you wanted to be treated like adults so we dished it out like such. We miss judged it and clearly worded it wrong."
"Tensa you should be resting." Came a voice he looked at the door to see Charles. He shrugged at the older man and said. "Could not sleep if I wanted to. I am worried over these two." Charles said. "They are strong and they have each other I, but I was wrong to ask them to come here and then think them to just settle in. I forget some kids are slow to the adjustment of a place like this. They clearly did not wish to stay from the get go so this time when they leave I will let them go it seems the best choice." Tensa nodded then watched Charles leave. He sat down and Remy came in later the Cajun looked like shit to say the least. He said nothing just went to Helia and held her hand and fell asleep like that his internal plee for her to forgive him clear in his emotional state of mind he just did not know how to say it.

Lynx let out a heavy sigh as Tensa snapped at her after Jean had just done but she shook her head and stared back at Tensa, she didn't leave however. "Look I am sorry as well Tensa, I was just speaking my mind. But I am willing to help the twins out, they had a rougher life than even I did. I asked Kitty and she and I are going to try and work with Helia to break her out of her shell." Lynx may be grouchy and bitchy sometimes but she had a soft heart inside. "Kurt has arrived and he is going to work on Helios, those two are not going to leave any time soon. Remember when I was like them and it was Logan who broke me out of my shell? Hell we may argue but I look up to him." she said and walked over to the couch and sat down.
She listened to Tensa as she spoke to the twins and watched as Charles come in but she said nothing to the Professor. She then frowned when Remy came in looking like shit and grabbed Helia's hand. "Remy I am so sorryp for snapping at you and being mean. Helia doesn't hate you though. Oh please...try to not be harsh on yourself." she whispered softly tears in her eyes. It would be a good four days before Helios would show signs of life but that was only because Lynx had been working hard with him and he had even stared to begin to trust her as well. Though he never made eye contact with Tensa, he stayed pale and lost a lot of weight even though he would eat.
Lynx now sat with him outside on the patio reading him a book as Kurt sat on the other side. "I wanted to ask you Helios, are you willing to stay here?" Lynx said softly. "I have no where else to go. And Helia is in worst shape then I am." he said and slowly nodded his head. Helios however would gently grasp Remy's hand before the man could walk past. "Remy....Helia doesn't hate you by the way. She took a worse pounding by Megnito than I did." he said gently as he fought back tears not sure his sister would ever wake up. Helios let him go and slowly stood up, he was no longer bed ridden or in a wheel chair anymore.
It would be a good two weeks and still Helia wouldn't wake up and Helios was very worried now. He moved and walked towards Hank in the medical bay and bit his lip. "Hank...she won't wake up, please is there anything you can do to her? Megnito hit her so hard...the shrapnel....please." Helios sobbed as he sunk into a chair and held his head into his hands. Lynx stood beside him and gently touched his shoulder and looked at Hank. "Hank I know its risky but I think you should do that surgery on her even if their is a chance." Lynx said softly. "Please Hank, for Remy's sake take that bullet out of her head." Helios said giving his permission.

Remy refused to leave Helia he would sleep by her and would just talk about whatever. Internally though his emotional sheilds were so tight he was running risk of becoming apathetic. he was trying to night rip himself apart trying to be strong, but he still felt like it was his fault. If he had watched his words more maybe the kids would have stayed and not felt they needed to leave. He just wanted Helia to wake up hell he did not care if she killed him when she woke up he just wanted her awake. Tensa felt just as bad. Helios would not even look at him and that just made him feel as if the boy hated him. Finally though he had to return to teaching classes and would visit during brakes though the fact Helios seemed to be doing just fine with Kurt and Lynx made the visits shorter each time. Forge had fixed his arm and he looked better than before which was a positive sign though he seemed distant. Emma Frost though had not come back at all she could feel that the kids did not trust her so she figured if they ever did trust her they would come to her. Mostly she and Jean just observed making sure the kids were safe. Lily even came back giving some flowers to brighten the room up.
When Helios came in two weeks into Helia still in a coma Hank paused. He blinked once then twice he said. "If I do surgery your sister could become brain dead for the rest of her life." He then grabbed an X-Ray. "The bullet is right at the base of her scull where the spine meets it. I cannot cut in there without doing damage. At the smallest she would be paralyzed from the neck down." He wanted to help the kids and had been looking for every way to help the girl. The kids had, had a sucky childhood and it seemed it was getting worse at the moment. Hank had called several high ranking Doctors as well for any advise, but it all came back the same. If Helia had the surgery she most likely would be a vegetable the rest of her life. That did not stop Hank from looking though he knew there had to be some missing piece some fragment he had missed. He was about to say more when running foot steps down the hall made him look up to see Kitty. "Miss Pryde what is wrong?" Swallowing she finally said. "Jean says hurry upstairs now."
Hank ran upstairs and knew Helios and the others would be close behind him. Getting upstairs to the room he froze. Jean was there, Gambit knocked out and Helia seemed like she had more color. He looked at Jean and she said. "Tensa... he got the bullet out without any damage but... Hank he just left I cannot sense him he wont let me find him." Hank walked over checking Remy over and finding the man probably would only have a headache. Sure enough when he scanned Helia the bullet would be gone." How?" He asked. Charles came then and said. "Tensa is much stronger than he let's on. He can brake down anything non organic minus his own body. He used his powers to link to the bullet then broke it down and forced it through her skin pores. She will have a rash nothing more... However Tensa is sick as is after the fight with Magnito and doing this has probably broken his mental walls which means he is sensing every living human and mutant all at once. Worse I cannot seem to locate him even with Cerebro which is a problem. Logan is out seeing if he can pick up the trail but something feels wrong about this."
Something was wrong about it. Moments after getting the bullet out of Helia Tensa had left the building the walls crumbling and his mind flooding with the sensation of every human and mutant. A fever spiked and he could not think straight he wound up walking right into Magnito who had been waiting in the nearby forest for the right time to get the kids again and hiding himself from Charles. Though he figured that Tensa was a fair trade for now. Grabbing the man by his arm he pinned him to the tree and snarled. "Where are the kids?" Tensa snapped. "Go to hell." Only to black out with in moments as Magnito sent him flying having him hit something and then impaled his good arm at the shoulder saying. "Let's remove the other arm maybe?" Before he could do more he was almost hit by lightning as Storm with Logan came up forcing him to leave. They radioed for helping being they were worried about moving Tensa. Storm knew just by seeing though Tensa would have to have his other arm removed.

Helia was fast asleep but her body had a slight glow to it when they had arrived up stairs. Helios had almost had enough and when he heard Tensa was gone he bit his lip hard. He turned and using a new strength picked up Remy and put him in bed beside Helia then turned to the others. "Don't try and tell me to stay. I have the strength to fight and I want to get Tensa back. I want to thank him for saving my sister." Helios whispered and shut his eyes. He hadn't really told any of them that he had been practicing controlling his powers and now he had perfect control with out passing out. However he suddenly cried out in pain and grasped his shoulder when Tensa was impaled. "Damn it...Megnito has, he wants me and Helia. He just got impaled through the arm." Helios said.
However before anyone could react he walked over to the other mutants and put his hand out. He grabbed hold of all of them the best he could as shadows began to form around him. "You can scold me later, hang on we are going for a ride." he said and they appeared in the clearing. However Helios stepped forward no longer his normal self as rage shot through him, his body glowing with black light. He stared at Megnito as hate raged through his heart and he clenched his fist, soon his body vanished in the mist of shadows, his sister lending her power to him.
"HOW DARE YOU COME HERE AND PUT YOUR HANDS ON TENSA, HOW DARE YOU ATTACK THE INNOCENT AND PUT A BULLET IN MY SISTER'S HEAD!" he raged as the air around him began to grow hot and staticky. He suddenly shot into the air and grabbed Megnito by the throat and ripped his helmet off his head, he slammed his fist over and over against the older mutant's face. He got hit here and there taking damage but he did not feel it, he loved Tensa and his sister too much. He was not even aware of the others as Megnito's men battled Charles's men around him.
"You come near Tensa, me...my sister or the mansion again I will kill you." snarled Helios as he slammed Megnito in the ground breaking an arm and of of his legs. He then stood over Megnito his hand trembling as a rod of hard back cire appeared in his hand and he aimed it at Megnito's heart. Trembling he brought his hand back and was about to kill Megnito when he suddenly froze and slammed the rod into the ground next to his head. "That is your final warning you asshole." Helios hissed and turned walking back to Tensa.
"I can save his arm and I can help with his fever, my powers have grown and your own blocks had fallen but I trained in secret." Helios said softly to Charles and the others. He brought a dark blue glowing hand up and touched Tensa's arm and pulled him free only to heal the wound fully, he touched the man's head blocking the voices out until Charles and the others could help him. "Tensa please hang in there, I forgive you and...and I need you in my life. I owe you so much...I like you." he whispered into the older male's ear before he fell back stopping himself from couching up some shrapnel that had entered his lungs. He was alright though, his wounds slowly healing, though his heart stayed wounded.

Jean and Charles were in chock as was Hank though before they could get to Magnito
Scarlet Witch appeared to get her father away. They stayed quiet as they went back. Getting Helios to his room and in the hall outside the room was were the arguing started. "You saw what he did Jean! That kid is a damn time bomb! I know they said they had killed but he did not care! He is dangerous and so is his sister!"Scott yelled as Charles and Jean tried to get two words in. Logan said, "How many times has the tin head tried to kill us? Plus the kid stopped he has control." Scott returned with."You would say that you're just as bad half the time." The fighting stayed going while Tensa was out on the couch still his body shivering every so often from the yelling impacting his mind. He was growing in power at a rapid pace and it was clear he was going to need help or risk more attacks like the fever before.
Finally the group would stop when a female voice cut in. "Shut up all of you for God sake!" It was Emma the Ice Queen was not happy. "Look here the kids have control I know Helios was training I sensed it and I know he has total control. He is strong and we are not chasing him out what kind of family would that be? Hell he does not even like me and I am okay with him staying. You know why? Because Tensa fucking loves him and has been staying here only because Helios was on the grounds and same for the girl Remy has lost puppy dog love for her and if we chased them out those two would go after them. Now get out of the hall I have papers to grade." The sound of foot steps was all could be heard as everyone left minus Emma. She walked in the room and went right to Tensa's side and put her hand on his arm. "Tensa?" He sat up fast and instantly groaned from a headache. Looking at the blond woman he asked. "Kids okay?" She pointed to Helia asleep with Remy and Helios to the side. "Yep." Then she lightly hit him on the back of the head.
"When were you going to tell us what happened?" He frowned and shrugged. Emma went on. "Tensa I know it has gotten worse what is going on?" Tensa said. "I can feel them all Emma. I know where they are. I know what they are. Hell it gets worse I can change the structure of organic things now. I made a flower go from a rose to a lily. I have no clue what has happened." Emma nodded then said. "Get rest." She walked out and closed the door. Carefully he got up and said to Helios. "Why isn't your heart healing? Do not say it is because I can sense your powers and it is not." Getting up slowly he went to the sink soaking a towel and rubbing his neck. "Also last I checked my arm should be removed by now."
human
Helios was about to tell them all to shut the hell up until Emma said it for them, she was aware that Tensa was having trouble with the yelling. However he blinked and stared up at Tensa when he spoke to him. "What...my heart isn't healing? No...it is now after what you did for me. Thank you for it Tensa I owe you so much. As for your arm well, I healed it for you and calmed the pain in your head." he said softly and bit his bottom lip. He then stood up and made his way towards Tensa and touched his shoulder and turned him around. "Me and Helia are staying, over those past two weeks I have been training in secret for control and I have it now, I did it for you." he said shyly and looked away for a minute. "Thank you for saving Helia as well, I owe you my life." Helios said and then leaned up and kissed Tensa on the cheek before he stepped away.
"I also beat the shit out of Megnito, you missed it. I was so angry after I felt the pain he caused you, when he impaled your arm. I lost it and went berserk on his ass but when I wanted to kill him, well I couldn't bring myself to do it. But he will have a few bruises and broken bones to remember my warning. I will help Helia with her powers as well when she wakes up." he said and looked away feeling embarrassed. He was mad at Scott for attacking him and his sister but he let it go though. "I uh...well I want to tell you something...but...I am not sure how." he said and slumped down on the couch.
However he sat up with a start as Helia let out a loud gasp and groaned as she sat up in bed and then stared down at Remy beside her. She said nothing though and leaned over and planted a kiss on Remy's lips before she stood up. She looked powerful and healthy though and she turned towards Tensa. "Thank you for removing the bullet and everything else but please don't leave again. Helios loves you and it hurts him when you leave and get hurt, he hurts when your head hurts you." Helia said softly and gently shook Remy awake before staring into his eyes.
"Get out of bed Remy, and I don't hate you. I am not mad at you anymore either, I forgive you." she then leaned close to his ear. "I love you Remy." she whispered hotly int his ear before licking it. Lynx was aware of what was going on the other side of the door and spoke to Charles about getting Helia her own room. "I think it would be better for the two of them Professor, the twins are not going anywhere. Though you should give Scott a scolding. Helios worked so hard to gain control, he spent hours on it, even working past midnight to gain control." Lynx said.
She then ran a hand through her blonde hair and slowly turned and walked towards the Professor. "I am sorry about your friend though, Helios broke four of his bones at least, I heard them snap." she went on to say and grumbled. Lynx herself had sparred a few times with Helios and he had left her bruised even though she healed almost as fast as Wade. "I talked to Stark today, he wants the twins to work with the Avengers, what are you going to say about that, Professor?" she asked and rubbed her bruised left eye.

Remy grumbled clearly not wanting to get up and grabbed her pulling her back down. " Remy still tired besides you're hot." He cuddled closer just over tired. His eyes half shut already he had not been sleeping the best and he did not care what she said if she wanted him out of the bed she would have to kick him out. Tensa smirked a little and said. "Best let him sleep or get some of the spicy coffee he likes from the shop around the way. Remy is not a morning person." Looking at Helios he said then. "I am sorry I cause you pain... I think it best you block me out for a while then. The pain is growing and my control is staggered at best. Howeverplease do not hurt Magnito too much. Charles cares for him despite he is a royal ass hole. Last though... could you at least try to talk to Emma. She is the strongest Telopath here even higher than Charles we think but she never has used it before. I think if you two at least talked to her once she could make sure there is nothing blocking your heads and such. Just once." He sat down and then said. "I have to grade six more papers damn it all I forgot when I give them a crap load of work I have to deal with it too."
Charles looked at Lynx. "I think it best they stay with us be with other Mutants and away from Shield. I am glad the kids are alright at least gives them a brake =, We should try to let them be kids as long as we can for a little while at least. Also can you do me a favor? If you can go visit Kevin in the woods I need him to come here and I know he get's along with you." Kevin was a Mutant around twenty years old and had been part of weapon X. He was albino in appearance and his powers were slightly odd. Like Jean with the Phoenix he had he had one as well. That was called the Kindred Hound a shadow wolf that gave him knowledge of almost anything. Making his blindness almost mute. He lived in a cabin on the grounds to focus and would come only when asked or if the school wanted him. "I need him to tell me what he can about Tensa's power surge." Charles explained.

Helios felt a bit hurt that Tensa seemed unaware of how he felt towards the older male but he said nothing and kept his emotions hidden. "I'm not gonna block you out of my life Tensa, but go ahead and do your papers if that is what you seem to need to do. He didn't like Emma still but had softened towards her when she had stood up for the twins. "I guess I will talk to her, later though. Anyways I am gonna go and get a new room, see you later." Helios said as he stuffed his hands in his pockets and walked out feeling depressed again but he didn't show it. He just slipped into the new room Kitty had showed him and shut the door and slumped onto the bed where he lay half naked with his shirt off and fell asleep. He felt like he had nothing else to do now that his depression had hit him again.
Helia sighed when she had been grabbed but she didn't fight it. Though she was red in the face when Remy had said she was hot. "You think a punk like me is hot?" she grumbled then shook her head. She stared over at Tensa but bit her lip and looked away. "Your the reason his heart is always aching so much. He loves you Tensa, can you not see that. You don't even react to it and just go ahead and tell him. Now he is depressed again and won't be coming out of his room for three days unless Lynx drags him out." she said and shook her head. "He feels your pain because he is connected to you, he is one of the few things keeping you as stable as you are." Helia muttered.
Lynx scratched her head and pushed her bangs out of her eyes once more. "Professor, the twins...I don't think they will ever really act like the others, running around playing pranks, games and bugging the teachers. Helia won't giggle like a normal girl and Helios refuses to be a jock, its so hard to get close to them. Not to mention that with all the people they have killed, well the guilt is still eating them up deep down inside." Lynx said as her eyes softened. "They won't be able to take another bad incident well if we can not pull that guilt out of them." she said rumbling her hair and then shaking her head slightly, she would go get Kevin though, even though he creeped a few people out.
She froze though as an idea came to her and she turned around and stared down at Charles. "Do you think Kevin might be able to help the twins as well? I mean he saved me when I was about to shoot myself in the head because of my own guilt." she said. "Oh, I will grab Remy some coffee as well, he won't get is ass out of bed. And could you please send Logan or Kurt to get Helios out of bed, he is mopping now....please Professor." she said remembering her manners. She then left out of the office, grabbed Remy his coffee and gave it to Kitty to take it to Remy.
She then went and knocked on Kevin's door and let out a sigh. "Hey Kev, its Lynx. Could you please open up, Charles wants to speak to you. Tensa is in trouble and one of the twins will not survive if Tensa dies or is even close to it." she said when the door opened. She smiled and hugged her friend softly when he had opened the door. "And please don't tell me which guy I am gonna fall for next, those this time it may be a girl." she said and walked with him back to the mansion and into Charles office.

Tensa sighed at her words finding he could not focus on his papers and left the room and said. "Keep it down in the clothes come off." Remy shot up in the bed at that and said. "Shut up... I am ore a gentleman than that." The Cajun was now red in the face and said to Helia. "Honestly Rem is nicer than that mostlylike just sittin and talking right now." He was attracted to her, but was not looking for sex and rather get to know Helia more before hand not after. He then laid down and only moved when Kitty brought him coffee. Slowly he drank it going to the small kitchen and starting to cook Helia something Cajun like he had promised. Humming an old tune from home and tapping his foot every so often to it.
Tensa did not care if Helios did not want company he went in the room anyway and seeing the kid half asleep on the bed said. "Two things. Get up because it is a beautiful day and do not be mopey because I have the same damn feelings. Do not make me repeat myself emotions are a bitch for me right now because my head hurts." carefully he sat down by the other and rubbed the younger man's back. "You need to smile more anyway in general. I know the guilt you feel well more Remy does and he projects it like a damn radar because he wants to help your sister. Also from what i can tell is you two often feel the same so if she feels upset or guilty she does too. Look Helios I am not trying to push you away it is just I do not always do the best with others. I am sort of fucked up in the head. With this latest power shift it is worse and rather frightening and I do not want to stress you out as well." He laid down by the other then pulling him close. When Logan came to try and drag the kid out he retreated because Tensa through a dagger into the wall by his head.
Kevin smiled at her though a shadow like wolf snarled and he made it vanish with a wave of his hand. "Alright I will talk as we walk and I know better than to tell you who you might fall for. Though if you are not into girls you might want to make that clear toMagik" Magik also known as Illya or Colossus' younger sister was not a normal Mutant at all. Her powers originally just had been to be able to summon a mutant power if she could think of a logical reason why she needed it. Then she had gone missing in which time she had trained under Doctor Strange and learned magic of all kinds. Now she was Queen of Limbo able to use demon magic, summon demon armor and her sword always returned to her hand. Making her one of the only self made class five Mutants. Kevin stayed quiet seeming to think finally he said. "Tensa is different you see... He was like you and Logan. But it was not weapon X who tested on him. It was Shield his father pretended to be a cop but really was with Shield, When Tensa showed signs of being a Mutant they started running test. When his father died they stopped no longer having a cover up. However the walls they had him build to keep him weak are shutting down. His true powers coming out. He possibly will be stronger than the Phoenix as are the Twins and Cuckoos. Trust me when I say this Lynx the path the Twins, he and Cuckoos walk can either end in ruin or piece."

Helia giggled when Tensa yelled at Remy and the Cajun became very embarrassed, however she said nothing when he tried to cover for himself until after he had left. "Remy, I know your not a guy like that its alright. No need to be so angry." she said and then slowly pushed herself to her feet and walked over to watch him as he cooked. Her mind wasn't on sex either but she did not bring it up. "Tensa is just under a lot of pressure." she muttered and pushed her hand up and grasped his shoulder. She then leaned up and kissed him on the cheek and breathed deeply in the scent of the food he was making. "Oh that smells so damn good, finally some real food." she said and then her eyes wondered for a few minutes as thoughts came to her mind and she tensed slightly, things were going on with the twins that no one in the world could guess or see. Helios sighed and rolled over when Tensa spoke to him but he shook his head slightly. "I don't smile, its not what I do. I haven't really smiled since the day we became free." he said but gave a very weak smile. "I am glad to hear you feel the same way about me though. As for with what is going on with you, well we will figure it out." Helios said and sighed. He then flushed though as Tensa pulled him into a hug but he lay relaxed and just lay his head against the older man's chest. He bit his lip and slowly closed his eyes, his hands trembled and he lifted his head when Logan came in. He laughed as Tensa sent dagger at him but felt a bit bad for the mutant after that. Helios liked Logan and they were starting to become friends so he would apologize later.
"Tensa there is stuff going on with me and Helia too that no one else knows about or can even sense. I know that albino is strong like Jean but there are things his counter part can not see fully with us. Though I think sadly my connection with me sister is growing weaker before it will grow stronger. I am scared though, if it should break then I will go blind, not physically but mentally." he muttered and
pushed his head deeper into the man's chest and breathed his scent in deeply. "I will hang on and fight though for both yours and Helia's sake." he would say before he sighed and fell into a deep sleep finally relaxed once more that Tensa was there, his body glowing slightly. Lynx flushed madly and bit her lip as he spoke about Magik, she would have never thought that the woman was interested in her. "You know I am bisexual, but I would have never thought Magik was into a beast like me." she laughed but fell silent when he spoke about Tensa. She froze for a minute and then rubbed her temples for a few seconds. "You know when I get a rare gut feeling Kevin, only you and Charles know about them. Well I think you may be slightly right about Tensa but you are wrong about the twins. Something else is going to come from them, Jean said there is something inside their heads that no one can access. I think their powers are going to shoot up like those of Tensa's. However the only thing mainly keeping him stable is poor Helios, but you need to put mental blocks on him." Lynx said her throat going dry.
She clucked her tongue and then stopped with him inside of Charles office. "Professor, my gut is acting up again, we are most likely going to get three very powerful mutants if we do not act fast." she said and then put a chip down in front of him. "Please plug that into your computer, those are documents about the twins that with Kurt's help I managed to get from Scotland. The twins may have alien contact, they went missing for four years from this planet and have no memory of it." she muttered and sunk into a chair. Lynx then bit her bottom lip with her fangs, blood streamed from the cut gently. "Helia and Helios we can not lose them. They have the ability to cause black holes, destroy planets and even take down Apocalypse if we do not put a strong block on their powers." she whispered pale in the face now. Slowly Lynx leaned forward and rubbed her hair form her eyes. "I took weeks to get that info from a mutant named Karlo, he has his ways through the Scottish Government. They worst then what we have here in the States. They were actually the ones who made the twins kill their own parents against their own will." she said. Lynx thought about everything and then cringed as she thought about Megnito getting his hands on Helia and Lynx. "I think I am gonna go see Hank, I am not feeling to well." she muttered as she stood up. It was not a good sign when Lynx was sick which was rare, when she was it meant something was really bad.

Charles and Kevin stayed talking for a little while, but then Kevin froze. "Where is the Cuckoos?" Charles frowned. "Why?" Then he felt it as did Jean and Emma. The triplets mentally were attacking Tensa trying to blast the walls down. Remy sensed the suddenly flash of pain and said to Helia. "Do not fight them please." He swallowed the Cuckoos were X-Men but ever sense their time with Sinister they had a bad habit of trying to brake into other Physics minds and brake them. The three had once been five and now they trusted no one but Emma and themselves. Jean ran to Tensa and Helios while Emma bolted to get to the triplets and stop them. Though she then sensed Magik moving and stopped Magik had long sense gotten the respect of them and would get them to stop.
Twnsa had suddenly sat up holding his temples as his head flooded with what felt like information but it was like Cerebro had been opened with no off switch or filter. Jean ran in and instantly shut his mind off as best she could. Then it stopped, gone in less then a few minutes only to suddenly hear something brake and a rift came as Magik walked in she walked over to Tensa and gave him a charm to keep him safe. Then she stopped looking at Helios. "I know you." She did for the Queen of Limbo could also speak with Aliens and such and knew about them. "Come to speek to me later please Helios. Tensa will be safe now. The Triplets are sorry but they do this sometimes." With that the black clad girl walked to the lower levels. Logan and Hank were talking about trying to see if they could make an arm for Tensa out of the same metal as on Logan's bones. Forge was fixing one of the scanners.
Tensa thanked Jean as she left and then leaned down holding Helios once more. "I forget they still are having that problem. You should be safe but ever sense Sinister got to those poor girls they randomly surge attack. Do you think Helia will need a charm for now or are her walls mentally strong enough?" Tensa was holding Helios lightly now so not to make the boy feel trapped. He wanted to help he really did, but what should he tell a kid who did not even know his own power limits. He froze then when the shadows moved turning into a large dog and walked to the bed looking at Helios mentally the dog spoke to Helios.Destroyer of worlds.... No maybe more? Hmm.... best be careful.It vanished then. "God I wish Kevin could leash that thing."

Helia grit her teeth together and narrowed her eyes as she felt the urge suddenly to lash out and wring those girl's necks. However she turned and looked towards Remy when he told her not to fight them. She bit her lip and turned away her own mind ached from what she had felt from her brother and slowly she slumped into a chair. She said nothing as she took her time and made her anger calm down. "Do they not know that attaching Tensa, attacks Helios which hits me? And I thought me and my brother were that stupid before we met you." Helia snarled and then took another deep breath and rubbed her head. "We used to be just elementals, then now things are happening to our heads....minds...what the hell are we? I know why now most mutants think we are freaks." she grumbled softly. Helios froze as Magik walked into the room, helped Tensa then spoke to him. His mouth dropped open and he cocked his head to the side. "I don't know you, who the heck are you?" he snapped before she left. Lynx was curled up on a bed asleep as Hank and Logan talked, though she picked up what they were saying. "Just take a sample of my mutated Adamantium, remember its almost organic and it is living. You always forget when I get impaled that the metals numbs me and helps my healing process." she said as she woke up and slowly made her way towards Hank lifting up her sleeve. She grabbed a syringe and jabbed it into her arm down to the bone and handed it to Hank after pulling it out.
"There you go, remember its in my blood as well." she grumbled her head throbbed from how her gut clenched. "Logan, do you still have those cigarettes I gave you?" she asked him softly. Tensa would feel Helios tense slightly but relax as the older male held him once more. "Helia's walls are strong enough at the moment but that Magik girl being here made both of our minds waver. I am really confused at the moment." Helios said. When the dog came in however, Helios froze and began to tremble as strange feelings shot through her. "DAMN IT..." he snarled and clenched his jaw. "Why the fuck did that stupid animal threaten me, call me a destroyer of worlds, the he said maybe more? What the fuck is going on....god damn it." he muttered as he broke down crying tears of frustration. "That mutt and then that girl in the leather, what the hell have me and Helia done? Why can't life just be peaceful...almost normal for us for once. Do we really deserve to be punished for what happened so many years ago. We have feelings, we care about people if they get killed." he cried his body shaking and he his his face in Tensa's chest now.
"We didn't mean to kill any innocent people, even our parents....even if father was cruel to us. I never wanted him to die..." he broke down. Helia was doing the same thing at the moment since she could feel her brother's emotions. "Why won't this madness just stop....will we never have a home?" she croaked and rubbed her temples harder. Though suddenly a vision sailed through both their minds and the twins curled up into a ball trying to process what they had just seen. "Monsters...we are monsters...its true." they croaked. Lynx lifted her head and ran down the hall and up to Kevin and Charles, she grabbed Magik on the way up. "The twins...they know...they saw...Magik...please explain it too them, you know the best." Lynx said. "You just need to talk to one twin and the other will hear it." Lynx said as she pulled her into Helia's room and sank to her knees pulling the girl against her. She hardly felt any pain as Helios's shadows took hold and grasped onto Lynx. "Shhh Helia...help is here, some help I think." Lynx said and smiled. "Its ok Remy she is not in too much trouble." she said trying to be calm.
She then turned and looked at Kevin, she glared at him slightly. "Can't you keep that stupid mutt of yours on a leash, he was the one who triggered this." she growled more at Kevin's other part rather than him himself. Helia was fighting and fighting hard, it looked like she was not going to lose the battle however. However when she became aware of a hand on her forehead, she allowed it to happen no matter who it was. She had given in and learned to even trust Emma now, with the pain she was in she didn't want to push anyone away. Helia managed to open her eyes, push herself up and look at Magik then over to Charles who could see she was fighting. "Professor, you need to know." she croaked as Lynx got up and moved for Charles to touch Helila, so far he would only see something dark from another world, capture the twins, control them like puppets for four ears, then it would go blank until Magik appeared saving the twins then it went blank again. Helia's memories were blocked and releasing to many at a time instead of slowly could kill her and Helios.
"What was it...you wanted to speak to me....us..about..?" Helia asked Magik as her brother spoke through her to the woman in black. "It has to do with something about why we are struggling so much." Helia would say before she fell against Remy and relax. The memory had faded away again, her eyes opened and she smiled. "Tell me, are we really monsters....my Queen?" she whispered softly before suddenly able to relax. "Well I am impressed with their control of their minds and the mental blocks now breaking." Lynx said as she slumped back and crashed into the coffee table. She had been wounded by Helia, though she was unaware of it. Helia's shadow was hard like a spike, blood dripped from it and Lynx's wound wasn't healing. "No...no...I didn't....Lynx." Helia whimpered. "Its alright, it snot your fault, its...the...darkness's fault.." Lynx said before she passed out cold.

Tensa had run in when both twins had shut down. He looked at Magik and Remy with Helios held close. Magik sighed. "Remy get Lynx to Hank. Tensa help me with the kids. We will fix this and hopefully bring this to an end. Remy meet us in my room." He nodded his head and took Lynx to Hank who started treating her wonds as KEvin stayed close the large dog and him yelling in his head. She would live that was good, but he had a bad feeling about what Magik was planning. Hands folded he hoped it would go alright.
Magik's room was covered in runes and glypes she had Tensa sit in one set keeping a hand on either twin. Remy came in and she made him sit holding Helia. Then she stood in another eyes closing and suddenly all three would be in a white room their bodies still in the normal world, but the room was in their minds. Magik looked at them. "Look the only way these attacks will stop is if you face the walls in your minds. You will have to relieve horrible things and learn to forgive. If you cannot do this you will stay suffering or worse turn into demons that I will have to end as my role as Queen to Limbo. Same for you Tensa and Remy your powers are walling and you need to smash them. Any volunteers for who is first?" Remy shook his head and backed up he hated his past and did not wish to face it. Not wanting the twins to face their horrors yet Tensa said. "I'll go first." Magik nodded her head and the room started shifting.
The room was dark suddenly then it would by clear They were looking into the room a young Tensa maybe eight was in a chair helmet strapped to his head and he was shaking. A person said. "We are ready. Now remember Tensa find the person in the picture we showed you and you can go home." The young boy said. "I can't I told you I can't control it." The voice responded. "You will do as told. Not focus and tell us where the man is." It was a picture of Magnito and suddenly Tensa seemed to try to be focusing the poor kid shaking suddenly a jolt was sent through the helmet and he yelled. "I said find the man." Fear in his voice the boy said. "I am trying my hardest." Only to get zapped again. Tensa was shaking by Helios remembering this his eyes pulsing with each zap sent into the boy.
Then it shifted again to somewhere in a warehouse. A man looking like an older Tensa and what had to be Tensa at seventeen facing down a man who held a gun and trigger. Tensa looked at Magik then the memory. "Not this one..." He groaned knowing it by heart. The older man barked for the other man to drop his gun only to be killed by a metal disk being sent at him. The attacker's eyes purple now showing he had Telekenetic powers. Tensa went to shoot his bather dead and anger boiling over. Suddenly a crate dropped making him drop crushing his arm. Instinctively as he saw the moment his arm was ruined Tensa grabbed his arm. The man laughed and then one by one started executing the hostages right in front of the man's eyes.

Helia and Helios watched the whole thing set into motion but Helios was trembling as well as Helia, they had no memory of what had happened in the past. Their minds had been closed and blocked off by a being from another planet. But the both felt sick and sad for what had happened to poor Tensa, he could feel their pity and their love towards him. Meanwhile Lynx's wound was having a hard time sealing and she had been fighting of Hank screaming in a blind rage from the agony she was in. Though it was Charles and Logan who were the only ones who could calm her down, Charles who had knocked her out so Hank could sew her up after fixing her ripped muscles. When Tensa was done his turn, Helios was the next to stand up and taking his twins hand. Slowly they straightened and stared around them as visions began to swirl and pass above them. Them as children as young as three, their father already experimenting on them, cutting them open and adding strange elements to them. More crashed forward of the same thing until it came to them at the age of 11 where they had killed their father for what he had done to them. Then them losing control of their powers and killing innocent people and you could feel their guilt for that. However something dark creeped into their sight, a huge being with the most black of powers you ever felt.
The twins were still eleven but they had been taken from earth, their powers pushed past normal and the being still adding more to them. He broke the barriers of their limits forcing the twins to always grow more powerful. Soon they would be shown basically as puppets destroying planets, galaxies even. Screams of billions of dying races ringing in their ears. Then there was silence as the twins were freed, falling back to earth, images of more innocence killed along with evil, guilt raged through them as well. Then finally it came to them being found by Tensa and it ended, the twins slumped to the ground and just sat there staring blankly from what all had happened. The being's words "You will never be alone from me." flowing through them and the air around them. Helia was the first to move, tears kept streaming from her eyes but she said nothing. Helios was next and he turned to look at Tensa sadly. "It will be hard to forgive ourselves for what kind of monster's we are but we must try." he said and grasped Helia's hand and pulled her up. "I know there are still other memories that will unlock later when the time is right." he said turning to Magik. "Even the most powerful of mutant can not remove some walls." he whispered.
Helia would then nod her head and walk over to Remy, she gasped his hand and pulled him to his feet. "I will be here with you, I won't let go. You are not alone Remy and I love you, remember that. Many people do and will never hate you for what we are about to see and face." she spoke. Helios was exhausted though and he fell against the wall of his mind and shut his eyes as he began to rest. He reached out his hand to Tensa and pulled the other male beside him. Lynx was sure that Magik could help but she knew the twins would still grew more powerful after this. Though she would know they would be a lot more stable thanks to the woman as well as remy and Tensa, and the rest of the mansion. She had woken up and was glaring at Hank, for strapping her ankles to the bed and making it hard for her to get up. Though she had not argued with him, she was too weak and too tired at the moment.

Tensa felt hot anger at what he was seeing the kids had never asked for this. This was cruel the wrong in some many forms of the word. He paused though seeing Helios needed him and went over pulling the boy close to himself as if keeping him safe. His head resting in Helios' hair almost as he nuzzled close. The steel of his arm still felt cold even in this realm. Magik stayed in-moving she did not let her emotions show. It was not her place as Queen to say what was wrong and right. Remy though was shaking knowing it was his turn even when Helia said she loved him he shook." I know cher.. but Remy doesn't want you thinking he dirty." The room was changing again.
When it ended they were clearly in the French Quarter lights, music and everything else. A group of men sat in a bar all had one thing in common a mark on there shoulder, marking them as Theives Guild member. They spike in French and English. There was Ryan maybe fifteen or so young marry and clearly the life of the party. His eyes bright as he hung with friends. As the night great later though Remy in Helia's arms started shaking more and more to the point he was shivering. In the memory Remy was clearly buzzed at his emotional walls dropped. That was when it came crashing down all the men looked at him at once, but not like friends no their eyes held lust. Remy was oblivious to it until two men brought him upstairs. He felt sick to his stomach seeing this this felt worse than any amount of killing he had ever done. He did not stop shaking even as the memory faded into other's of killing or steeling. That one though was the worst.
When they were done Magik returned them to their bodies. Getting up she then dropped to her knees. Tensa went to help but she shook her head." Out." Tensa knew what was coming and picking up Helios as Remy took Helia they ran from the room just as Magik shifted into a demon like monster and started pacing the room. Tensa said." She will be okay it happens when she uses a lot of magic. She just like us seeing the horns, or tail or hooves." He and Remy brought each kid back to their room. Tensa sat holding Helios as the TV played. Remy though was still shaking some. Setting Helia on her bed he went back to cooking wanting to finish what he started.

Helios stayed close to Tensa but kept his mouth shut and then slowly turned to look up into his eyes. "I really don't know how or what I should feel anymore. With those memories...with out what I might have done...its hard for me and Helia. Lynx on the other hand...well I don't think Hank will be done with her. Helia used a posion shadow, I am not sure how Lynx will react to it." Helios said and then turned to watch Remy move away and Helia shook her head and frowned, she stood up and walked over to the Cajun.
"Stop being so silly Remy, I do not think you are dirty. I am a monster...a demon compared to what you did. Come here and stop worrying." Helia said and suddenly kissed Remy hard on the lips after she had pulled him down to her level by his shirt color. She stood on her tip toes as well trying to reach him. She then pulled away and smirked before she slipped her hand into his and helped him finish making his food a very happy smile on her face and in her eyes.
Helios yawned and lay back in his bed, his hand moved and he gently held onto Tensa's hand. "One thing that still bugs me is Megnito will not give up coming for us, I don't want him to harm you again. Even if they tried to put a block on our connection it won't work. I feel your pain now for the love I have for you and that will never go away." he said and slowly leaned up and kissed Tensa's cheek but was to shy to kiss the man on the lips.

Remy smiled at her when she kissed him. Returning the kiss he then pulled her close hugging her tightly."Thank you." He said and then finished cooking. Grabbing a few plates he made one for her and one for him. "Sun's still up wanna go outside?" He offered wondering maybe if the sun might do her a little good. He knew it always helped him after being sick or stuck inside for a long time. Besides why would she not want to go outside? She seemed to like it before. Tensa was still with Helios he sighed trying to think of what they could do. "I will talk to a few of the others. Though I have a feeling it might be up to Emma or Jean to use Cerebro to make a mind field around the space so to speak." Holding the other still he smiled lightly though and said. "You know Magik is gonna kick your butt right?"
Chuckling he explained. "She does not like people seeing her demon like form, trust me Logan saw it once and I never have seen him be put on the ropes like that. She had him down in two moves before she was calm enough to stop." Tensa knew Magik would never hurt someone unless she had to, but the girl had a flame like temper. Well she, X-23, Lynx and Kitty all did making them a group of four no one ever wanted to make mad. Pausing though Tensa then opened a window a little. Looking outside he rubbed his temples feeling a slightly headache, but he could live with it. He was more worried for Helios and Helia the kids past had been bad and that still had not been all of it.
Magik left her room and went down to the medical room. Hank nodded as the woman then walked to Lynx and healed the wound for the most part. "Have to love fucking shadow skills. You feeling okay Lynx?" She asked her Russian accent still slightly ringing as she spoke. A slight smile was on the blonde's face, but mostly because she knew that X-23 would give Lynx and ear full for this and the semi clone of Logan always was funny when mad. "You need to be more careful you know. Why did you not come here when she first hurt you? The toxin in her shadows could kill you if you are not careful."

Helia blinked and stared up at Remy a smiling coming to her lips. "Your most welcome my handsome mutant." she whispered softly. She then took his hand and a plate herself and nodded her head when he suggested going outside. "Sure it sounds like fun, I like being outside in the sun. But I like it even better when I am with you." Helia said and stretched her body. Once they had found a table to sat up she began to wolf down the food that he had sat before her. "God damn it, you cook like a God my Remy." she cried out and turned her head to smile happily up at him. She licked her lips and swallowed the food before she finished her plate and leaned back in her chair with a huge smile on her lips.
"I am worried mostly about Helia's mind." Helios muttered and shut his eyes for a few moments. "I am more worried about Lynx giving me an ear full than facing Magik's temper." Helios suddenly spoke up. He looked at his lover worried and bit his bottom lip, slowly he pushed himself to his feet worried about Tensa's headache. "Are you feeling alright, do you want me to go get you some help for the headache?" he asked and cocked his head to the side. He then walked over and hugged Tensa gently around the middle and buried his head into the older male's chest and breathed his scent in rather deeply. "I like when you hold me, I feel safe then." he muttered.
Lynx stared up at Magik in shock and bit her bottom lip when the women healed her. "I think she had hit a kidney but it takes a longer time to kill me then most mutants." she muttered softly. "It hurts like fuck though." she muttered and sat up in bed. She frowned however when she was getting scolded some but she let it go and shook her head. "I couldn't just leave Helia, Helios...Remy and the others just because I got stabbed. You know thats not the way I work anymore." she said and shut her eyes. "Thanks for healing me though, I owe you one I guess." she whispered and ran her hand through her hair feeling a bit embarrassed with herself.

Chuckling at the comments she showered him with Remy followed her outside and sat down. "Well you are two kind, because you the one who would win a beauty pageant before Remy." Sitting in the chair cross legged so that his right leg was over his left leg he ate slower than her for two reason, one he knew to not rush when eating he rather enjoyed a slow meal and he also knew if you rushed it your stomach hated you about ten minutes later. Some people did not get the second part, but most did so he never risked it even though he grew up on the stuff. A soft smile was on his face when she mentioned him cooking like a god and he said. "Mer'ci, but you are too kind." Reaching to the chair beside him he handed her a napkin in case she wanted it. "It nice out for now winter up here gets mighty cold... Despite it Logan still can go shirtless, then again sometimes me think he brainless as well. Are you two used to the cold? Will we need to get some warmer things before end of fall?" Remy knew they two were from Scotland which could get chilly, but he did not know how Helia and Helios handled it personally. Just because a person was from one place or another did not mean they were like everyone else. Getting up after a little he took the plates inside and set them in the sink before coming back out with a few cans of ginger ale. Handing her one he took his place in the chair once more.
Tensa listened to the other explain he was more afraid of Lynx than Magik which was wise in it's own way. Laughing a little when Helios asked if he was okay he nodded his head saying." Yes, I am fine I just have to learn to deal with the constant headache for now. It should fade once everyone learns to relax and calm down. Then again it could just be so bad because I am currently keeping constant tabs on Magneto's location. So, we do not get another lovely surprise." Rolling his shoulder again he then smiled as the other hugged him. Carefully he hugged back and picked Helios up slightly before setting him back down. "I know just remember I do have to teach so the only way around it will be to either come to class or go hang with your sister." Tensa had a feeling that Helios would pick the second option it as clear the kids were not too set on classes and Tensa would not try to change their minds. Their powers concerned him though and he wondered how long until one of them snapped or worse got hurt. Deciding not to think on it that moment he asked the other. "Do you want to just sit down and watch a movie for a little?" It was something calm and relaxing and nothing had to come of it. Tensa was relaxed when it came to relationships mostly because he did not know how to respond to them half the time. So, he let the other person lead.
Magik just shrugged and replied to Lynx. "Yea i know, but try to be more careful next time." Smiling slightly she then walked out moving aside as Ryoma came in. Ryoma was a mutant who unlike most did not know his class. Even Emma was unsure of where he fit in due to how strange his powers were. Able to ignore pain and heal as well as Deadpool he was also military trained so not a fun cookie to fight. Coming down the steps to Hank he said to Hank."Charles told me to get back from Rome what is going on?" Hank said to Ryoma. "We have two new students, but they are a bit different maybe you with all your FBI attachments can figure out a few things." Ryoma paused then asked. "I would need some time and to know what I am looking for." Ryoma's dad worked for the FBI while his mother was CIA. He always dressed nice and often could get into the database they needed for information.

Helia blinked and stared at Remy when he asked her about winter and she cocked her head to one side. "Me and Helios don't get cold ever really, we can heat ourselves internally with our power, but maybe it would be a good idea to get some clothes for here, we would fit in better then. However we were in Canada for awhile I think, I remember lots of deep snow and melting it when we walked through it." she said and rubbed her mouth clean with the napkin. Helia thanked him for the ginger ale then cocked her head to the side and bit her lip as she picked up on her brother's emotions but she only smiled. However she froze when she became aware of a new mutant on the grounds. "I sense a weird mutant here, he has strange powers....like..." she fell silent and froze like she was picking up on some other things.
Helios bit his lip and then shook his head before rubbing his forehead. "I guess we could watch a movie if you want. I am just worried about going to class right away. I don't want to accidentally hurt any of the kids. I would feel horrible if something bad went happen. I would sooner train with the more experienced mutants than the other kids." he said and ran his hand through his hair. You could see he meant it and that he really was worried. However he would freeze suddenly as well as he picked up on Ryoma as he made his way onto the grounds. He then narrowed his eyes and turned to look up at Tensa. "Who is this strange mutant I feel, he is like us in a way." he muttered before rubbing his temples and slumping back on the couch and shutting his eyes, his sister doing the same a few minutes later.
Lynx flushed and looked at Magik before she left. "Why does she always make me feel so strange." she thought to herself and slowly pushed herself up from the bed. "Hey Ryoma, long time no see? How have you been? If you want to meet the twins and learn about them I can take you to them. But please be careful with them, they are very sensitive and highly dangerous if you provoke them too much." Lynx said rubbing her side. "Magik healed me." she said to Hank so he didn't worry. She smirked at her old friend and gently grasped his shoulder before looking at Hank. "Can you tell Logan I want him to help me with tracking later on? I think I am getting a bit rusty with my nose skills." she teased and pulled Ryoma out the door with her and into the hall.

Remy nodded and said to her. " Alright then sometime this week we can run into town and grab some clothes for you. Though warnin Emma will wanna come. Woman is stuck here so much she looks forward to getting away. She cannot drive because of her green card so yea." When she mentioned a strange mutant he paused closing his eyes and trying to pick up a new set of emotions so he could tell who it was. Eyes flashing red for a split moment he said back to her. "That'd be Ryoma. Not bad man, but different for sure." He was worried though Helia seemed like she was stressed suddenly. Was Ryoma's lack of emotional understanding and feeling causing her some kind of pain? "You alright cher?" He asked her putting a hand on her arm and waiting for her to refocus or just respond Ryoma was somewhat of a loner so maybe she was picking up on that. Still though Remy waited for to respond, his eyes scanning her face for any signs of pain or discomfort.
Tensa nodded to the other and grabbed a movie. Listening to Helios explain why he did not want to go to classes right away he said to him. "I understand Helios, I am not saying you have to go. Maybe we can work on one on one classes just to make sure you guys are set. You said you had graduated high school and we do not have many college level classes. So, there is no need for the academic side of things unless you want to do them for fun." Siting by Helios he rubbed the younger man's neck lightly trying to help him calm down. Though the moment a new mutant was mentioned Tensa closed his eyes trying to focus. "Oh, that is Ryoma. His powers are an odd but deadly combo. He cannot feel physical pain and he heals almost faster than Logan I would say his healing is near Deadpool's level. However this is bad for him at times because he cannot feel touch he knows it is there but if you were to let's say hug him he would only know it was happening because he saw you. For some reason this gives him a short temper in a fight." Tensa asked Helios then. "Why is he bothering you some how?"
Ryoma let Lynx drag him out and asked her. "What is going on anyway? I mean Charles made a rule of me not coming back here unless I was needed because of what happened with Logan." A year ago Logan and Ryoma had been sparing and about destroyed the danger room, because between Ryoma healing and not feeling pain along with Logan's feral rage and healing they litterly had no limits. "It is good to be back and why is Magik healing you? Cannot Hank patch you up? What is going?" Ryoma was caring he honestly was, but he struggled t show emotions properly and often all emotions came a crossed as anger or annoyance. However he also respected the others Lynx, Logan and X-23 more so because they could keep up with him and training.

Helia blinked and opened her eyes staring up at Remy and shook her head. "No pain, just the new mutant is strange. I can not pick up on too much about him but he is stressing my brother out a lot worse for some reason. Anyways as for shopping, well sure. However I want you to be there still, Emma makes me tense when I am around her." she said softly even though she liked Emma. Helia trembled a bit and moved her chair closer to Remy and into the son. She rested her head on his shoulder and let out a heavy sigh. "I think maybe once we meet this Ryoma things will get easier and we can understand him better, he makes my powers burn inside me though." she said trying to explain to him what was going on and how she and Helios were feeling. However for now she just leaned into Remy's touch a small and relaxed smile on her face.
"I wouldn't mind learning a bit more about mutant history if you teach those types of classes." Helios suddenly spoke up and shook his head slightly. "Your friend...well his lack of things and his powers just throws me off a bit. It kind of gives me an ache to the stomach. I am not sure how to explain it but its nothing too bad. I would like to meet him when the time is right however. Maybe he could understand me and Helia better with what is going on with our powers." he would go on to say before he leaned back in the chair and rested his head on Tensa's shoulder gently as his mind began to think things over. Both twins were worried but they were staying calm only because of Remy and Tensa being beside them.
"The twins came to us weeks ago, Remy and Tensa brought them here because Megnito and the brotherhood want them. Magik healed me because Helia the female twin stabbed me in the kidney with a toxic shadow attack. Hank was having trouble doing so." Lynx replied and ran her hand through her hair. "Helios and Helia are very very powerful and their powers keep growing, I think Charles wants you to help them. However we are going to see him first before we meet the twins." she said and pulled him him gently around another corner and brought Ryoma into Charles's office. "Look who is back Professor, oh and please stop worry about me, Magik fixed my kidney. However we need to make the twins meeting with Ryoma stress free or they might be set off, any ideas?" Lynx asked sitting down and rubbing her side.

Charles had been reading in his office when the two came in. Looking up he smiled faintly at Ryoma and Lynx after she was done talking he said to her. "I am glad to hear you are alright though I must say you scared us a little. Also hello Ryoma good to see you, you look well." Ryoma was just blatantly confused at this point. "Good to see you as well Professor you look well also." He sat down in one of the many chairs Charles had for his classes in the room. "Can I ask one thing?" Charles nodded his head and Ryoma asked. "Why do we think it is good for me to meet these to new students? I mean I have no problem with it, but what about me makes you believe I should speak with them. From what little Lynx told me they sund like they control shadows. How would that work with my powers?" Ryoma was calm as always though his eyes showed he was confused about it all. Looking at Lynx he asked her. "Are you sure you are okay? I trust Magik, but still I worry." A kidney shot would be painful he knew that much though he had never felt it himself. Ryoma had spent years reading on emotional and physical sensation to understand what others felt and why. Even with that though he struggled at times to understand people.
Tensa held the other and said. "Oh, well he is odd, but do not worry he is kind. Are you sure you should meet him? I mean with you already in discomfort is that wise?" Tensa wanted to be sure the two twins were safe and if Ryoma set Helios off somehow that would get bad fast. Smiling he said to Helios. "Well I do not teach Mutant history that would be Jean or Charles. I teach normal history and help Emma with her control classes. Remy teaches combat with Logan. Scott teaches Mathematics, Hank is Science and Storm teaches just normal day to day things like how to live with your powers and such." He figured it was best to explain who taught what that way the two would know who to expect for teachers. I know you would want me probably for control not Emma, but she could help if needed her powers let her freeze your powers momentarily and also unlock them completely. Though it can be scary."
Remy listened to her and said. "He is harmless for the most part. " When she mentioned she was okay with shopping and her slight fear of Emma sighed. "You know she never means it she is rather lonely to be honest. She hates de nicknames of Ice Queen and such. The entire thing that she trained kids to be killers was a lie. That was Magnito taking her students and twisting them without her knowing. Then de thing with Scott was a shit storm. Honestly me thinks the reason she is so cold and distant now is she is tired of being hurt." Remy shrugged his shoulders and then went quiet on it. As Helia rested on his shoulder he moved so he could hold her with one arm. Inside he was hoping she would be okay and same for her brother. It seemed things were better, but for all they knew it was the calm before the storm.

She bit her lip and stared at Charles as she looked from one to the other then back again. She then let them speak for awhile why her mind went over the shot to her kidney and she was a bit worried. "You can answer him a lot better than me Professor so I will leave it up to you to remove that confusion from his mind. I am sorry for causing it Ryoma." she said gently to him as her hand landed on her side again. "I am fine Ryoma, stop worrying about me so much. Remember I took a bullet to the head yet nothing bad happened to me like Logan. Not to mention that shrapnel that Megnito sent to my heart, my metal is organic unlike that of the other weapons that were made before me." she said and stretched out in the chair. "Did Hank tell you though that her toxin can change to effect the person she injects it into." she said.
"My gut is telling me that I have to and should meet him. But I will wait for him to come to me if that would be better." Helios said then sighed. "I rather have you to train me over control, Emma freaks me out too much and I don't want her in my head again." he whispered. "Maybe I will take history from the Professor though, I like him. He is always so nice to me and Helia." he whispered and bit his lip. He stayed cuddled up against Tensa thinking things over for awhile. "Is Storm as Lesbian? What is with her short hair cut? Helia was wondering about that." he whispered as a flush came over his cheek and a smile came to his lips. He breathed in Tensa's scent and he relaxed fully just wanting to hold the other close.
Helia blinked and nodded her head while she listened to Remy speak about Emma. "Its just freaky when she is inside of my head, that is all." she muttered and kept her body pushed against his own. "I am more worried about Lynx and how badly I hurt her. I couldn't control myself to well and got really scared, that is when I stabbed her. I got her right in the kidney." she said softly and lifted her head. "Do you think that she will forgive me?" she muttered and shifted to sit closer to him. She stayed calm though and knew that she would just wait and see what Charles had planned for her to and her brother that included this new mutant.

Looking at Ryoma as the young man sat hands folded right foot resting on his left knee. Yes, Charles noted Ryoma was different than most and that was why he might help. "Well to put it simply you all struggle with feelings and attaching to others." Ryoma frowned at that, Charles knew the young man hated being reminded of his problem. " The children were taught to be disconnected from everything they did and others. While I can understand not trusting everyone they need to open up more. It is clear that if they do not some of the other students or even teachers might take offense to it. I just want to them to understand that they can be open here and that we do not need walls. You were the same so maybe you can help." Ryoma sighed and felt a slight tinge of pain inside. It was only like a pin but still he knew that this meant Charles had not called him back, just because he knew he could trust the man, but because he needed him to do something. Most might feel this was being used, but Ryoma just let it slide away and did not mind. "Alright I will try my best though it my not go that well." He got up and said. "I can meet them whenever for now I am going to the cherry trees in the green house." With that he left.
Looking at her Remy nodded his head and said. "Well if that is how you feel then you can meet him, just be warned he is not the most empathetic person. He can be rather harsh at times. Mostly because logic runs his brain the most." Then as she asked about Lynx he hugged her closer to him picking her up into his lap. "Lynx will understand you are not the only person here to hurt someone by mistake. Many of us have. She might be a lil tense at first, but she will be fine." Nuzzling her slightly he smiled a some and said. "You smell sweet cher" Then chuckled and pulled back. "You look tired a little you alrigh?" Maybe he was just worrying to much it had been a stressful last few weeks between the twins and Ginoza about loosing it. Sighing he stayed just holding her letting the sun keep them warm and comfortable. "I know Emma is scary but Charles in most put heads ninety percent of the time and same for Jean. At least Emma butts out if you ask her."
Tensa listened to the other explain several things and chuckled. "Okay I will tell the Professor and Emma will understand." He about laughed out load when the other asked about Storm." Storm Lesbian? No, she is Bisexual yes but not lesbian her hair changes on a monthly basis because it grows fast. It is only short right now because a mutant burnt her head a little while ago and she is waiting for it to heal." Sitting up more he let the other cuddle to him and smiled saying. "If you need to sleep go ahead and rest. You and your sister have been through a lot."

Lynx grunted slightly and listened to Charles before she nodded to Ryoma as she let him walk away. She bit her bottom lip feeling bad for her friend and slowly turned to look the Professor deep in the eyes for a few moments. She then winced slightly and ran her hand over her sore side, even though she had been healed it ached a bit. "Sometimes I think you are a bit harsh with Ryoma you know. Everyone seems to be, he isn't a bad guy at all. But I trust what you are doing, the twins might open up a bit more. But they all have opened up more than before to Kitty, Kurt and even Logan. Wouldn't you say that is a good enough start?" Lynx asked and cocked her head to the side and bit her lip. "And not to mention they opened up to me as well, and you if you would talk to them more often when not busy." she said fumbling with the zipper to her jacket.
"I will wait until tomorrow though until I meet him or whenever he is ready. I really do not understand people much yet. I am just glad that things have gotten easier for us now." Helia said gently. She then giggled and shivered as he seemed to sniff her as he held her close, she smirked at his comment. "You smell good as well Remy." she purred softly. "I am not that tired if your wondering I just want to be close to you at the moment." she would say. However she would jump as Lynx, who was finished talking to Charles walked over. "Before you say anything Helia, I want you to know that I am not mad nor do I hate you. I forgive you for what happened and your still my friend. Take care of her Remy, your doing very good." she said and walked away.
Tensa would see Helios raise his brow then smirk slightly before he looked away. "Hmm well I can tell you that Helia is bisexual as well, I think Lynx is too...I find it interesting." he said and smirked. "I am fine though even though I look tired. I am sorry we everyone through a lot this past while. Even though we have gone through a lot me and Helia know you all have as well." Helios spoke and stretched his body out. He felt strange in his stomach and slowly he leaned up and kissed Tensa on the lips timidly. "I love you Tensa and I thank you for everything you have done for us, we owe you so much." Helios said as he shifted a bit uncomfortably in the older male's lap, something hidden in Helios's pants.

Remy was confused by Lynx then again he was confused by anyone whose words said one thing and emotions just seemed constantly calm. Watching her go he blinked and just stayed holding Helia." So.... is we you know? Datin?" Remy was not one to just go and date he struggled with his empathy and he never seemed to know the finer details, though he would love to try with Helia she was sweet and lovely. Maybe it could work between them they were just crazy enough. Staying quiet he listened for her answer though staying cautiously hopefully. She might not wish of date. She might not like him like that, that could happen too.
Ryoma was outside just sitting in the green house. Storm as always kept it beautiful never missing a single plant. He knew she was away and decided to do a little bit of care as well. Storm has taught him knowing he struggled with others and needed a quiet place. She was one of few who trusted him and never judged the fact he lacked the normal emotional understanding of others. Now there were two kids he had to try and help? Charles sure know how to surprise him. Hearing foot steps he turned looking to the door of the green house and saw Kitty waving she walked in and said." Your room is ready when you are at anytime of and Logan wants a rematch sometime." Ryoma nodded and she sighed leaving.
Tensa flushed red when kissed the tops of his normally white cheeks a bright redish pink color. It took him a full two minutes to properly respond suddenly pulling the other into a hug and laying on the couch with him. Tensa stayed quiet though not sure how to say what he felt. Finally he said." I love you too." Tensa was not openly gay in-fact few knew about it. Remy because he could sense what Tensa liked, Logan because he could smell it and the mind readers for that reason. Staying like that though Tensa wanted to just hold the other for a little while.

Lynx grumbled slightly feeling bored so she decided to go and play around with Logan for awhile. When she came across him in the grounds she snuck up behind him going through the trees. "Got you, you big lug." she snarled as her claws shot from her hands and she ran at him, her fire wrapping around her body and she suddenly slammed her teacher and friend into a tree smirking. She able to land a few punches on him before he had time to react. "Your getting old Logan, you didn't even to smell me coming for you." she teased as a smirk came across her lips. She wondered if Charles had thought over what she had said, it seemed to her he kept the poor twins at a distance.
Helia blinked and stared wide eyed up at Remy when he asked if they were dating now. She was rather shocked since she had never dated someone really before. "Sure I guess you could say that? I wouldn't mind dating you, would be an interesting and fun change from what I am used to." she giggled softly and stared up at Remy. "So if you want to take me on a date, where would you like to take me? Just so you know, I don't care much to be in crowded areas and tight places." she said to him gently as she lay her head against his chest and slowly closed her eyes. She felt so calm and peaceful now, her mind was not worrying about her brother much at the moment.
Helios smiled softly as a strange warmth flooded through him and he felt a new strength flood through him. "Your so cute when you blush. Anyways...would you be willing to train me for a bit today? I suddenly have a new strength and I want to use it to get better control of my powers more." He would say as he gently sat up and stared out the window. "Haha...I see Kurt, come on lets go." he said dragging his teacher and lover outside by his arm being careful not to hurt him. "You are always telling me that I should get out more and be around more people." he teased and stood outside.

Logan did not jump, but he dropped into a role to get her off his back. "Honestly, you are down wind and it is Ryoma who I am more more concerned with. Professor is mad letting him back we all know he can be set off by anything." He was at the ready now in case she wanted to stay fighting though he could smell Ryoma was on the move. Sure enough in about five minutes the well dressed man was looking down at then and Logan snarled a little towards him. This never phased Ryoma he just smirked and shrugged like it was nothing. In truth it did not mean anything to him he was use to the looks and bad attitude of the other man. Walking down to just simply watch he stated. "Lynx in honesty you did jump him and he could have hurt you if you had not been careful." Ryoma was worried for Lynx a lot of the time though he ducked when Logan took a swing at him. "Rematch kid." Logan said and Ryoma sighed and nodded. "Fine." Ryoma stated walking forward and then took out two smaller hidden knives. "Rules?" Logan said back. "None"
Remy said to her. "Would not go no where unless you wanted. Would let you pick. Remy does not leave the mansion too often." Truth was he did not like leaving alone the emotions of all the people often became too much for him to handle and his head would feel like a mace hit it and that was what he hated the most. Staying quiet as he held her he suddenly sat up sensing anger from Logan. "Oh, dear come on... migh need your help." He took her hand leading her outside and finding where Logan and Ryoma was he stayed back with her. Logan felt close to his edge and Remy knew it was because Logan strongly disliked Ryoma. Leaning forward he said to her. "If Logan losses it Rem will have to stop him. Be ready to run." A few cards in his left hand ready to charge and throw if he had to watching the two. Logan was moving in a circle around Ryoma, the brunette seemed un-bothered by the more animistic man. When Logan lundged Ryoma side stepped quickly still no emotions on him or sensed from him. This made Logan more angry and he snarled at Ryoma.
Tensa let himself be dragged out and when they got to Kurt he noticed the blue man watching something. Looking down he saw the fight starting and sighed. "Oh dear this wont be good." Rubbing his temples he laughed a little. "Speaking of Ryoma dear God this will be a mess." Kurt said. " Ten bucks says Ryoma wins but Logan does more damage." Tensa nodded his head. "He has been wanting to rip into Ryoma sense Ryoma nearly bot them both killed." This was ugly but everyone knew it would happen. Tensa wished it had been later rather than sooner.

Lynx growled slightly when the two men broke out into a fight. "Your so boring Logan, and way to ruin my fun Ryoma, you jack ass." she growled as she watched. She however was not going to let this happen grand she suddenly stepped between the two and frowned. "Logan get your fucking head out of your ass. I don't care if you hate him or not. Your going to end up in a cell again if you don't calm down." Lynx growled back at him. All six of her claws were out now, the air around her began to fill with heat and static. "Shit...Lynx is going to pop....her angers worse than Logan"s." came a voice as another mutant popped into view.
His name was Cylo, he was like Emma and Jean in a way but he could take over someone's body if he chose too. He was floating beside Remy and Helia upside down. His long white hair grazing the back of Remy's neck. "You need to stay out of this Remy it won't be good for you or Tensa, let Lynx deal with it." he said in warning and grasped Remy's shoulder. Helia blinked worry on her face and she jumped down from where she was standing and headed over to Lynx not caring what anyone said. She stood in front of Ryoma her arms spread. This made Lynx freeze, she knew the twins were very dangerous and Logan would be in danger.
Helios frowned and didn't look back at Tensa as he ran over to Helia grabbing her hand and holding onto Lynx's shoulder. "Easy, we can deal with him." Helios said. Lynx shook her head and ran at Logan slamming her fist into his shoulder, her claws ran through his muscle and dug harshly into the concrete wall behind them. She then slammed her other hand into his other shoulder keeping him pinned, her powers lending her strength as Helia shook her head and grasped Logan's head and began to enter his mind, pulling at his anger and making it vanish. Helios then brought up a barrier of dark black shadows as he grasped Logan's arm making his strength leave his body.
Helia would drain him as well of his strength until Logan had passed out and then Lynx would step back pulling her gut from Logan's claws, her would dripping blood on the ground until it healed. Helia was trembling and so was Helios and they turned to look at Charles and Hank as they came out. "Hank, please tie Logan up when you put him in a bed, we took his strength but it will return in a days time." Helia said feeling sick to her stomach. Helios nodded and watched Lynx as she slammed her fist into the wall behind them before she stormed away with out looking back at anyone. This made Helia cock her head to the side and sigh softly as her brother touched her shoulder. She turned whispering into his ear and he flushed softly.
"Not a good idea to mess with The Lynx, she is going to be angry for days. Remember last time Tensa, when she was walking around with a shattered shoulder and would even turn on Hank when he tried to help her. When she is angry her powers go wonky and she can get hurt depending on what she does." Cylo explained when Helios and Helia returned back to their partners. Helia was shaking though and Helios shook his head. "I told you, let me take that part next time, your gonna puke one day if you keep doing it." Helios snarled at his twin before pulling her into a hug and rubbed her back. "Don't worry Remy she'll be ok, her soul got sucked from her though, its back in her though." He said.

Ryoma stayed quiet though eyes un-readable it was Remy who looked upset and it was leaking out some through his empathy. Tensa did not look much happier at what was taking place but he had good reason. Ryoma was the last of their problems right now the man never went anywhere without one other Mutant close behind. Problem was Tensa could not find him and that was starting to make him stressed. Kevin like Ryoma was an outcast first and foremost. Many of the students feared the Albino mutant. Tensa could feel something shift in the air and shook a little. Kevin got along with very few others Emma, the triplets, Lynx and Cylo. Tensa then moved fast grabbing the twins and forcing them both to the ground as a massive shadow loke cloud hit the air nearby killing the trees. Turning though it looked at them, for it was not a shadow but a ghost like wolf with a skull face and blue eyes. Before it could move again it turned looking as Kevin walked out. "Honestly enough." He was not alone Emma suddenly came down with Jean none of them looked happy. Tensa stood up and Ryoma was looking at Emma while Remy went to Helia.
Oh if looks could kill then Ryoma would be dead from Emma she looked like she wanted to murder him. However she just turned and with Jean helped Logan. Kevin forced the wolf to vanish his normally red eyes black as it was not happy about it. Turning he walked off. Tensa spun on Lynx. "Are you nuts? I know you can take Logan but honestly getting between him and someone he sees as prey? We are lucky he did not go Feral on us." Remy touched Tensa's shoulder and he instantly relaxed. Ryoma spoke then. "Does it mater anyway? Next time Lynx do not stop him I rather be injured than you." Then looking at the twins he said. "So these are the dynamic duo.... They remind me of Serenity." Serenity was a female mutant who had died years ago, but her powers were always shifting causing different things to take place. Remy looked at Ryoma then and said." You're hurt." Ryoma paused at that and nodded his head.
Tensa blinked and looked at him confused. "Logan did not hit you though." Ryoma shook his head. "The internal damage Remy can tell I have is from a fight a few weeks back. A group of Brotherhood attackers went after me looking for someone and I got myself pretty banged up. Normally I heal faster but the wound in my side is from Scarlet Witch herself so it takes time to heal." Remy sighed and then nodded as Ryoma stayed quiet. Tensa had a hand on the shoulder of his false arm and looked tired. "Can we go?" He asked softly to Helios his eyes were bright green now as a headache was fastly building and he did not want to have a crash in-front of all the others.

Lynx rounded on Tensa this time after he had yelled at her. "YOU SHUT THE FUCK UP YOU DON'T KNOW WHY I ACTED AND UNLIKE YOU CARE, YOUR A FUCKING COLD ASSHOLE. LEAVE ME THE FUCK ALONE, I AM DONE, DONE WITH ALL OF YOU!" she growled as her eyes glowed. "You want feral...I'll show you fucking feral. There is a reason why I am known to be worse than Logan, fuck all of you." she hissed and ran off before another could say another thing to her. She walked right past Jean and the others with out a look back at them, the twins stood shocked but said nothing to anyone for a few minutes. "Poor Lynx, she loves him." Helia whispered to her brother softly, she knew what was going to happen next.
Helia just shrugged and turned to Tensa. "Go ahead, me and Helia are going after Lynx." he muttered as he straightened up and walked with his sister hand in hand. Lynx was gone however, a backpack slung over her shoulder as she took her motorbike and left the school. She was a mix of emotions at the moment, not to mention in agony as her bones began to heal themselves in her left arm and hand. Cylo vanished with a pop and there was an awkward silence knowing that things were going to get worse as he appeared on the roof watching as Lynx rode off into the sinking sun. The male huffed and crossed one leg over the other sitting down and running a hand through his hair.
Helios and Helia left through a back gate, heading through a bunch of alleyways and into the country side out of town. Helia was tracking Lynx who seemed to not be in her right mind. "We have to be careful, Remy wants you back before things get dangerous." Helios reminded her. "Ah shut up, I know already. I am more worried about Lynx, Megnito is tailing her from on high." she said to her brother who nodded and they picked up pace turning into flaming figures they took to the sky. They would follow Lynx to an old barn where she had threw her bag to the ground and slumped into a pile of straw grasping her arm as the bones snapped together.
However before they could even approach the barn Megnito attacked wrapping metal bars tightly around Lynx as she tried to fight it off. The twins were sent flying into the trees by a burst of light, they however didn't know where it came from. Lynx had stopped fighting however as Megnito lifted her up and brought her to eye level. "Fine just kill me, I'm so done...sick and tired of this world...mutants and humans alike. People don't need me, I am useless to them." she hissed as her head dropped against her chest and tears streamed down her cheeks. Helia was aware of this but she had been ripped away from her brother, arms held her tightly, she knew they were caught.
Helios stood though like a ticking bomb and soon they would hear a hissing noise and a flash of black light as the boy took on a new form. Massive black wings shot from his back and he took to the sky. He slammed his fist into toad's chin grabbing his sister. "Don't touch my sister you freak!" he screamed as Helia held onto his shoulders. Once in the air he sat her on top of a tree and flew towards Megnito. "Give her back you asshole." He snarled but was stopped by a barrier. He looked around wondering who was causing it.

Remy while not with the kids could sense their pain and hurt. Tensa was ignoring his head ache and sighed figuring they should go after the kids. Ryoma wanted to be sure Lynx was alright grabbing one of his fire arms from his car and a few other things Tensa located the kids knowing if they found Liynx they would find the twins. Remy grabbed his bo staff and cards with that the three men left. Tensa leading because he knew where to find them. His head was screaming in pain as he moved along and it started to burn behind his eyes for some reason. Forcing it down though he stayed focused on the task at hand, get the twins and Lynx. Getting to the barn he was at first frozen though Ryoma bolted past him towards the barn not using his gun knowing Magnito could block him he went right at the man in hand to hand combat. Magnito dodging and moving up though still seemingly stunned that Ryoma would just run at him. Remy hit Toad hard and said. "Get your hands of her." His eyes bright as he hit Toad with a few cards. Looking at both twins his face said he was mad, but also happy to see them." Stop thinking you can do it on your own you have friends." He was hurt they still did not trust them enough to ask for help. Honestly Remy was running out of thoughts on what to do. It was clear the kids would never trust them enough or at least it felt that way.
Remy then froze sensing a shift in Tensa and turned just as he saw Scarlet go for Tensa but before she could hit him he spun knife in hand stabbing her in the side. She screamed and Magnito spun helping her though when he went to attack Tensa the man side stepped it as if he knew where it was coming from without seeing it. His eyes were a solid neon green almost blue color. The worse part was when he spoke it sounded like more than one person. "You won't hurt us. We know your mind." Turning he glared at the two and Scarlet Witch instantly started screaming and holding her head. Remy swallowed hard seeing red form in Tensa's hand. " Why? Why is it in him?" He knew this power it was the Phoenix Force and it clearly had Tensa in it's hold. Remy knew all Telopaths linked to Cerbero and Jean were at risk ever sense the thing started to hit the grounds. Even Remy had been hit once, however Tensa was always careful why had he snapped? That did not mater Tensa was in danger of it taking over all the way. Magnito seeing he did not have a winning fight dropped Lynx and picked Scarlet up leaving. Toad ran off as well into the nearby trees.
Ryoma went to Lynx instantly checking for wounds. Remy grabbed both twins and snapped. "Do not even think about going near him. It will just make it worse he will be fine." Remy knew the moment the Phoenix got any of that dark energy into Tensa he would be lost in part to it. Taking a few minutes of trying to pin it out Tensa finally got himself under control. Taking a deep breath his arm and chest hurt and he walked over to Lynx. " You happy now? See what running away from your problems does? Magnito could have gotten the twins or worse killed all three of you." He turned and started heading back to the school as Ryoma picked up Lynx and Remy let the twins go. His arms also crossed as he looked at the twins. "You ever plan on trusting us?" Asking them he then refused to move until he knew they were heading towards the mansion.

Helia let out a sigh, Helios was annoyed with Tensa and Remy but more annoyed with Lynx aswell. Lynx however suddenly slammed her fist across Ryoma's face, flipping out of his arms she landed on the ground. "I'm not going back with you, I'm sorry but I am sick and tired of the fucking drama going on back at the mansion. Charles isn't doing anything about it. No one is and they are just letting shit play out and happen. The man I love wants nothing more to do with me, he ignores me as well. I have no more reason to stay. Sorry that you wasted your time saving me. It would have been better if you let Megnito kill me." she spat before glaring at Remy then Tensa a huge frown on her face, her fangs showing under her bottom lip before she shook her head and closed her eyes.
"I am sick of Tensa and his bullshit, always getting his fucking headaches, blah blah and both of you and your stupid emotional problems...fuck you both." Lynx snapped again as she turned around after flipping them the bird. She simply slammed her claws into the wall of the barn, grabbed her bag, jumped on her motor bike and turned and zoomed past them until she stopped at Ryoma. "I'm going to see Viktor, you know...Sabertooth. I don't care if the brotherhood gets me either." she said simply before she turned and sped off with out looking back. She loved Logan, always had since he had found her. But lately he was so cruel and gruff with her, she had been having enough. She felt no guilt or remorse for what she was doing, her feral side taking over.
She vanished down the road and from sigh only leaving a dust cloud behind her. threThe twins stared up at Remy before Helios looked to Helia who suddenly threw up on the ground holding her stomach. "We sent Tensa a message for help but whatever is in his head blocked it out." he said as he grabbed Helia and held her close, his black wings folding around her. "You idiot Helia please don't push yourself. Its bad enough that Lynx got into your head, but your soul...no. Back to Hank you go." Helios said pulling Helia onto his back as he began to walk past Remy his head hung low. He stared at the ground as tears ran down his cheeks wishing things would calm down for once. He wondered why Megnito was such a pussy as well but he did not say this.

Ryoma sighed watching her go then said. "I'll go after her." Remy nodded his head and said to him. "Be safe." Ryoma then turned as soon as he was at the mansion he got into his car and then drove off. Emma Frost would send him updates on her location. It was dark though before he caught up pulling up to a motel he got out of the car and walked towards the the building only to be grabbed by his neck and slammed into the wall. He knew who it was without seeing it. Sabertooth also someone he could not just fight. He felt pressure knowing the other man was digging his claws into his side. Ryoma though did not flinch. Sabertooth seemed amused. "So it is true you do not feel pain. Fun." Ryoma said nothing just waited for a good chance to get the other man off him. Viktor said. "She does not want anything to do with all of you anymore. Got it?" That got a snap from Ryoma. "Oh, shut up. You think I care if she wants to go back or not? No I do not I just care if she is okay. Stupid girl is so hung up on Logan she never noticed I cared for her. Sure I never said it because emotions are useless to me, but I saved her ass more than once now just because he is treating her like an adult and not a kid anymore its all boo whoo." He shrugged a moment then spun so he was away from Viktor his side ripping more as he just looked at the other man arms crossed as he waited for something else.
Tensa stayed quiet he felt like crap and not just in his body emotionally. He felt like he was being cruel, but did not know how else to respond to the childish behavior of Lynx. She knew others cared, but just because those people were not Logan she acted like nothing mater or at least that was how it looked form the outside. Sighing he got to the mansion and Jean ran out to him putting a hand on each side of his hand and said. "Charles knows he is willing to help." With that Tensa left and went to Charles office. Remy followed the kids to Hank's medical room then left going to Helia's not knowing what to do he just cleaned. He had to keep busy if he did not the emotional pain the two were in would start to crush him or worse he would start to let it into him. He wondered to himself if things would ever be normal again or was this the new normal? The twins running off and Tensa and Remy chasing them to make sure they stayed safe. He hoped not, but he knew it might just have to be that way.
Kein came back to the grounds and sat in one of the trees the wolf at the base as he just looked at the sky or well it seemed to be that way. "Cylo?" He called knowing the other would hear him. Kevin wanted to understand more. Lynx was mad over the so called drama, but this seemed like normal family drama to him. Logan and Ryoma did not get along. Sure while Logan wanted to beat Ryoma he would never kill him. Worse so on finding out that Lynx was gone both X-23 and Magik became overly sad within the hour. Neither went to dinner and Magik about killed her brother when he tried forcing her to go. Emma also seemed upset lately, was it because Scott had been overly cruel to her lately taking out his anger on her verbally. He clearly did not trust the twins noting how ever sense they came the school had not gotten a moments peace. Emma though refused to tell the twins and just took it. She was used to it being called ice queen and such. All Kevin knew was if they did not all start to get long there would be a brake and Tensa would be the one left worse. They had thought it was the Phoniex, but Kevin knew other wise. Like Jean Charles had put walls in Tensa's mind to protect him now they were shattering all at once and the three level of his powers were coming to light. Not only could he sense where you were he could teloport there and get into your head from anywhere as long as he knew who you where.

Lynx was not far away, she was in the bedroom behind where Viktor stood blocking the door. Lynx had heard Ryoma but she shook her head and turned her head towards the window, leaning her head against the glass of the window she was looking out. "Well if you say emotions are useless to you, then she wouldn't be able to notice you loved her. Lynx is a person you need to be up front about, and don't go being an asshole just because she loved another man and only saw you as a friend. If she wants to leave she is free to do so. You will never understand what its like to be a weapon like her." came a voice as a dark figured stepped into view, covered head to toe in bandages. "I am Chaos, I am the one who as been playing with your twins and your kitten in there. But now that Logan won't return his feelings well, her hears broken and she is pretty much feral now." the figure said neither male or female.
Lynx scoffed and headed into the bathroom and shut the door where she turned the shower on and washed herself. "The girl does not want anything to do with you or the X Men, she will be staying with us. Viktor here is more than happy to take her in." Chaos said before vanishing with ease then sending Ryoma slamming into a truth as it drove past on the robe. "She is ours, end of story." the mutant spat. and Helios was feeling worse with every passing moment and his head began to pound, he bit his lip and returned to Charles's office and opened the door. "I found Lynx she is close to going feral, Ryoma was thrown into a truck by a very very powerful mutant named Chaos. They are more powerful then anyone you have here in the mansion or the X Men." Helios said rubbing his head before he sat down in a chair and sighed.
Helia was sinking back and forth in and out of her body, she was passed out in Hank's lab now. She seemed to see Remy under her, her soul floating about. She was struggling to get back into her body. However she managed in a few minutes and gasped sitting up. "Remy....Remy..." she groaned and straightened up in the bed. "I know what is causing all our problems...my brother told Charles. If we can destroy the source, things will get better." she cried and grabbed his arm. "Hank...Hank do you have a containment field or chamber strong enough to take on a multi class mutant?" she said her eyes wide. She touched Remy's head and he would see Chaos and all the power and darkness the mutant hand running through them.
Cylo head his name called and he appeared before Kevin floating upside down his head cocked. He stared at the mutant for a few moments before speaking. "Not sure if your stupid wold told you but this is all starting with one multi class mutant more powerful then anyone here at the mansion, even you and Jean, or Tensa. They go by the name Chaos, they want the twins and Lynx, they will stop at nothing to destroy this planet you know. The twins or loyal to us though, they will not turn, they rather die, just so you know. I saw this through my portal." he said as he poked Kevin in the nose. "You want this all to end, take out the center of the problem." he said and zoomed into the air.

Ryoma felt himself get hit with the truck or more be slammed into it. His head was spinning and his body felt no pain however he knew he was injured. Snarling a little he got up and when Sabertooth went to hit him he shot the other Mutant twice not killing him but giving himself time. Looking at Chaos he said. "Think I care about them? I have no emotions so I do not take sides. I just go where I want. Right now I want to be with Lynx so call the dogs off." Sabertooth snarled at being called a dog getting a third shot in the leg. "May I stay at least?" Ryoma asked his wounds already healing. He just looked bored clearly the lack of emotions would make it hard for him to show any interest in anything at all. He just stood there waiting for Chaos' answer and did not bother fighting it was clear who or whatever this was. He would loose and that would be no good to him.
Tensa and Remy both stopped as they sensed something in the air Charles did as well and said. "Get to the twins now." Jean ran but suddenly the twins, Remy, and Tensa would all vanish. When the light cleared they would seem to be floating in space itself but they were able to breath. "My you two young ones have been causing a bit of trouble haven't you?" A voice echoed around them and it said. "As for the green eyed one he seems to be the newest host for one of my children and the red eyed one I am not sure of." The stars moved and adragon like formwas there then. "I am Sol the balance maker for every force there is a balance and I make sure it is there. For example the Phoenix as you humans call it and the Kindred wolves are counters for Kevin and the wolves are death keepers and the Phoenix is life. However it seems one who is like me being a creature of nature itself is starting a war. Chaos. I intend to teach you two twins to beat him though your friend will need to help. Expect to here from me soon." It shiftedhumanbefore they all would be back in the mansion and everyone seemed to think they never had left. Tensa and Remy went right to the twins though Tensa suddenly looked pale and he sat down Jean started yelling in her room as the Phoenix ripped itself from her and went into Tensa.
In the end all were moved to danger room being it was made to adapt to whatever was inside it. Tensa was staying quiet and he was rubbing his temples. "So much for normal anytime soon. Honestly I am taking about three years off after this shit storm is over." Remy chuckled at that and said. "The sooner this is done the better.... I just hope I dont end up triggering Death again." Death was the persona Remy had while under Sinister's control and it had been horrifying having no limits to his powers and having full control at the same time.

Chaos shook its head back and forth as they glared at Ryoma. "Your a useless bastard you know. I understand why Lynx wants nothing more to do with you. I understand why the twins think your a freak as well." Chaos laughed and began to move over to Viktor and smirked under his clothing, his head not even could be seen. "I have no reason to give the girl to him, no reason to let her be near him when he doesn't seem to care for her either. Emotionless he is then he wouldn't care for her either." Chaos laughed loudly before he turned his finger slightly and sent Ryoma into the brick wall of the motel now, the wall tumbled over and fell on him before Lynx appeared and Chaos grabbed her shoulder pointing to the pile. "There is Ryoma, he says he loves you yet he is emotionless, makes no sense child?" he asked her.
Lynx just shrugged as she let Chaos's hand wrap around her wrist and hold her closer. "Why should I care, he is emotionless, he won't be hurt then." she said simply as she felt a dark fire shoot through her body and suddenly her eyes glowed a black color. "There is your true power young one. Go out and take down those who hurt you. We will be behind you, protecting you." Chaos whispered into her ear. "Go with her Viktor, make sure they do not get their hands on her. If they do I will kill her." he whispered to the man so that Lynx could not hear. Lynx laughed, jumped onto the ruble, slammed her claws into it a few times before spitting upon it. "I have no need for someone who just call me names, fuck you, I hate you." she said and shot into the air and heading towards the city.
The twins seemed to just stare at the being before them but showed emotions as she talked before they were put down again. Helia shook her head saying nothing before she yawned and stood up. Helios did the same and they slowly took to a corner of the safety room and fell fast asleep. "I am so sick and tired of people fucking around with my head and trying to always order us around" Helia spoke into her brother's mind. "I have the same feeling, but we must listen to Tensa, Remy...Charles and the others." he said back, no one could hear their blocked messages, it was for a reason.
"I hate Kevin though and some of the others, they are stuck up ass hole." Helia would say. "Oh shut it Helia, learn show some trust, Remy loves you...I love you. Kitty like you and so many others." Helios would reply. Helia would growl and roll over in bed, Chaos's powers making her whole body ache as she began to track Lynx. Helios woke up and shook his head at his sister. "Damn it, so cranky because of the headache and body pains." he said allowed before he went over and sat beside Kurt and just stared at the floor. "Lynx is heading for the brotherhood and I am stuck here unable to help, can you teleport me out of here?" he whispered.

Tensa was listening to the others and said to Helia. "Kevin cannot help it a hellish wolf is sharing his being with him, but yes get some rest. We probably will be spending the night in here." He stayed cross sitting on the floor and just stayed quiet something felt off in the air and he did not like it. Even indoors he knew something was wrong. Remy could sense all the tension in the room and stayed quiet not wanting to anger anyone more than they already seemed. He sat by Helia and stayed quiet, she seemed ready to kill and he did not want to make it worse for her. Honestly he had no clue what was going on in her head. He wanted to hold her, but being touched seemed to be the farthest thing she wanted done right now. Leaning against the metal wall he looked at the ceiling and he jumped when Charles came in. Wheeling to Tensa and motioning for Remy to come over he spoke quickly and both men's faces went from calm to shocked and then sad. Remy was clearly upset and Tensa was shaking. With that Charles left them and Remy started pacing. " Rem?" Tensa asked the man was litterly a ball of sadness and rage. "Non right." Remy spat. Tensa said. "You need to calm down Remy." The red haired man shook his head and it was clear he would be pacing for a bit.
Kurt looked at Helios and blinked. "I... I cannot we are not permitted to be let of the grounds.... oh you do not know do you." Kurt looked upset and sighed figuring it best to tell Helios. "Charles was trying to track Ryoma because he was worried.... He is gone. His healing powers can only go so far and Emma said they only worked if he had the will to live. Well something clearly happened because..." Kurt got really quiet then and said. "He is dead.... killed, by who we do not know." Kurt himself was unsure of how to respond to it all. Sure Ryoma was a bit of a cold ass hole at times, but it was because he never understood emotions or pain his powers messed with it to much and no one very seemed to understand that. Still though to just die like that and be a former X-Men was something even Kurt felt sad over. "He was crushed by a building somehow. Charles says we need to stay on the grounds because it is too dangerous to be just going out alone. I agree I mean to just kill Ryoma like that it had or whoever it was had to be strong. Emma and Jean are both in Cerebro trying to keep a wall around the school up, but who knows how long that will last." The blue Mutant looked into the room and noted Remy still was upset by the news.
Outside Kevin sensed another mater and leaving the grounds with the wolf in close beside him he tried to figure out if what he was sensing was a danger or just something else. As he walked along he left the protective wall left by Jean and Emma. Then a feeling of hot pain hit him in the chest and he froze as a shadowed, different than the wolf suddenly was in-front of him and before he knew what happened he felt cold. The wolf force ripped form his body and nearly killing him. Both Emma and Jean sensed it and yelled in the Cebero instantly telling others who could get there in time. Magik acted first using her powers to teloport there and trying to cut the shadow was stunned when even her sword did not harm it. Instead the shadow just fled. Getting Kevin back he was given to Hank who spent the next hour stabilizing him. Although without the wolf inside him Kevin was now a normal human without powers that was if he lived the fact it had been ripped from him.

Helios stared at Kurt in shock, his eyes widened and suddenly he hung his head as tears came to his eyes and began to run down his cheeks. He slowly stood up and walked over to Tensa, he stared at his friend before sitting next to him. "I know we didn't know him well, Kurt told me...I am sorry about Ryoma." he croaked. He then blinked as Helia stood up and slowly walked over to Remy and grasped his hand and pulled him into a hug and held him close. "We need to get to Lynx, please Remy...please. I know Ryoma is not dead he can't be, I can feel it in my cut." she said her own tears falling down her cheeks as she began to tremble, she leaned up and kissed him softly to show she was sorry and she felt their pain.
Lynx on the other hand was heading for the mansion, she was not herself, she was not thinking straight, she was being controlled by Chaos at the time being. Helios couldn't take it any more, it was getting to much for him and he began to pound on the door wanting out. "I can't keep staying in here please let me out. I need to get outside...Lynx is coming, she is being controlled." he hollered loudly. Tears streamed down his cheeks as Helia came to his side and they both began to pound on the door until it was opened by Charles himself. "Please, please listen to us. We can stop this man Chaos, we can stop Lynx." Helios said panting softly, his eyes turning pure white along with his sisters.
"We want to help, its too much to just sit in that room the whole tile. Please Charles, please. Ryoma isn't really dead, I am sure of it." Helia cried trembling and shaking. Helios pushed past Charles and ran up the stairs to his room and pushed out onto the balcony and stared outside watching Lynx coming towards them. "Oh please no...." he croaked. He turned back and stared down the stairs at Helia who nodded her head and turned to Charles. "If you have a mutant who can restrict her movement, and with Hank's help we can keep her pinned. Helios can block her powers out, I can drain the link she as with Chaos out. I know its dangerous but we need to try." Helia cried as tears strained down her cheeks.

Tensa looked white as a sheet. "Ryoma was always more of an outsider it was why we wanted him to come here to talk to your guys.... We should have left him alone. he had just gotten a job on Wall Street and was going to be a little normal." Remy was holding Helia and now was a hundred percent confused. How could she go from hating a man and thinking he was a freak to crying over him? Honestly Remy was almost getting whip lash from it. He kissed her head and sighed. "I donno if he is dead or alive but... If he is dead then it means he wanted to go." He froze as did Tensa when the two started pounding on the door he was worried they would hurt themselves. Relaxing when the door open and Charles listened to them only to have them run off. Tensa got up his hands shaking and eyes turning a reddish color. Remy and him ran after the twins getting to the spot just as Helios asked if someone could pin her down.
" I can though I do not know how nice I will be about it. She willingly left us. I want to know why and she is a friend, but if she tries to kill more I cannot say what will happen." Remy was spinning his staff and said. "First she has to get through Emma's wall." That was true Emma with the added power of Jean had a force like wall around the place strong enough to deflect a missal so Lynx would have to fight for at least a few minutes to get through. Tensa then went full Phoenix Force. His eyes red clothes gone into a suit that was black with red coming off it his hands having red lines along them as several red swords formed. "If Remy can keep her in the air i can pin her once she is in the right spot. I'll leave the rest to you two." It was not just his voice it was the Phoenix as well. It hated Chaos it found his a monster and wished him stopped like the other elemental forces of nature.
Remy spun his staff and looked at the twins. "Ready if you are. Just remember you have friends." With that he jumped outside landing on both feet however when he stood up he was in his Death persona his outfit blacked out completely and skin ivory white. Cards ready in his right hand and staff in the left he waited for the twins words. Tensa was using the power of the Phoenix to stay in the air as wel planning to defend the twins if he had to. Charles on the ground said. "I will do my best to keep your minds protected and linked to one another, but I also must make sure the students stay safe."

"Helia, tell them what was going on with your head." Helios spoke before they were about to fight Lynx. "Chaos was trying to get into my mind, I am sorry about the problems, the emotions. I had three voices in my head and was fighting to gain control." she said rubbing her temples. "And Tensa you keep those damn blades out of her flesh, if they enter her, she will die. Chaos can make it happen with certain." Heila warned before she turned to Remy. "She didn't leave willingly, Chaos was speaking through her, forcing her against her will. She has gone through too much like we have, I saw it in her mind when I stabbed her, she saw why we are who we are in ours." Helia explained.
Helios prayed that poor Ryoma was alive, he knew poor Lynx would beat herself up if she had found out Chaos had killed him after what the monster had made her say. He shook his head his body trembling as he stared down at Lynx, her blackish eyes staring up at them. "I'm gonna go to her, someones got to show her pity." Helios said as he took off and shot through the barrier thanks to Cylo who had teleported him. He kicked Lynx hard enough in the stomach to send her to the ground. "I don't want to make this a big fight Helia, Remy...Tensa..." he shouted above him as he stared down at Lynx who was bleeding from the side of her head from where she had fell back and hit it on the ground.
Helia was trembling slightly, she knew this would be risky sine Chaos was holding Lynx's healing powers back, she was very unlucky now. Helia went next as Cylo made a whole in the barrier. "She ain't gonna come to you boys, you want to go through then hurry up. I ain't going to hold it much longer." He shouted up to Remy and Tensa. Helia and Helios surrounded Lynx the best they could, she was shaking with rage, she really was no herself. "Lynx, come on...we are trying to help." Helia said stepping forward a fire ball in her hands. Lynx dashed quickly enough to send Helia flying into Helios and they were knocked back, Helios skidded them to a halt.
"I know what your going through Lynx, please try to calm down some. I know your heart is broken, your bitter from not having your loved returned. I know you are angry at us. But I know you care as well, you don't want to leave." Helia said as she stepped forward and grasped Lynx's head tightly. Helios couldn't get close though as Lynx lashed out with a kick at him. Helia held on tight to Lynx feeling the claws digging into her ribs. "Remy, Tensa...Helios...hold her body down, now...hurry." she cried as she felt blood escaping from the sides of her mouth. Helia could feel the fight Lynx was having against Chaos in her head and it wasn't going well.

Both men did what they could to help the twins, however they were unsure of what was best. Tensa stayed moving trying to get her to change directions with the swords swing from one place or another. Remy though stayed quiet on the ground waiting in case Helios or Helia needed protection. When Helia went down with Lynxa he moved first Tensa close behind. Getting to the two girls Tensa could tell this was going to end badly. In his head the Phoenix said. "I can help just let me out a little and the fire can heal her." Tensa knew the Phoenix was not lying but still it could be a risk. Too Much of the flames would hurt the girls. Hands glowing he put some of the fire around the girls keeping their bodies healed. Remy held onto Lynx's shoulders and said to Helia. "Do what you have to, but do not get yourself killed please." He was worried Helia would try too hard and not know when to stop. Yes, if they lost Lynx it would be heart breaking, but loosing Helia would kill him.
Somewhere else in the city Logan and Scott had gone out to find Ryoma and see if he was truly dead. Getting to the motel they found the rubble and a lot of blood. On looking around Logan found a trail and started to track while Scott watched their backs. they finally found him and it was not good. The wall had done a fair amount of damage and his healing factor for some reason was not working. Not correctly anyway. Looking at the young man Logan felt a little guilty for yelling at him and starting a fight. However they had no time they had to get Ryoma to Hank and fast. Scott picked up Ryoma as Logan moved off to get the car started. The drive was quiet until they got to the Mansion and then at the sight of the fighting they both almost yelled but Charles stopped them and had them get Ryoma inside.
Down stairs in the medical room Hank did what he could for Ryoma, but the young man needed his healing factor needed to to work or he could die still. Outside was not much better Tensa and Remy felt powerless to help the twins the more it went on. It seemed it took all they had to keep up or even pin Lynx for a few moments while the twins just kept up wit her. Remy sighed though knowing they had to help even if it was only a little at a time. It was better than just giving up.

Helios felt a gladness take over them as they came across Ryoma, however he knew Lynx would beat herself up harshly when she was back to her normal self. "I will try not to Remy but its rather hard with the power she has at the moment." she said as Lynx thrashed about in Tensa's grasp. Helia then felt Helios grab hold of Lynx around the legs and shove all three of them into the ground. "Remy, damn it... please hold her legs down." Helios cried as Lynx seemed to be fighting, her strength growing more and more powerful with her rage. "I have never seen or felt anything like this before, from a feral." Helia croaked as she sat on Lynx's chest. Helios was being thrown about trying to hold Lynx's legs down while her claws stayed embedded in Helia's flesh.
"Hang on....I'm going into her soul." Helia said as her body glowed and went pale. Helios knew that he had to get up now and take his chance. He slowly made his way up to Helia's head then around as the air became very heavy with static and pressure. He grasped hold of Lynx's head his eyes glowing, soon that happened to Helia as well. After a good 15 minutes they worked but suddenly they were thrown from Lynx as a shock wave came from her body. Helio's spread his wings grasping Tensa's hand to keep him from smacking into a building, they landed a few feet away. Helia was standing now her shadows holding her up as she backed away fro Lynx.
Lynx was awake however but hardly opening her eyes, tears spreading down her cheeks. The feral pushed herself up after a few minutes and looked about. "Why...why...Helia." she would start to cry as the female twin clung to Lynx and held her tightly. "I'm sorry....blame it on Chaos, we will take him down together." Helia whispered rubbing Lynx's back. "I't my fault he came, my fault Chaos hurt him. I hate myself so much for being so weak to fight him." she sobbed harder. Helios began to approach and Helia held her hand up and he stood back. "The only one who I think can calm her may be Magik right now." Helia whispered to her brother softly. Helios nodded and called for Charles to find Magik who he knew Lynx cared for deeply.
"When Hank or someone is free, I need one of you to get help Tensa, Remy...Helios. If I move Lynx the wrong way, the shrapnel inside her body, might take her in the heart." Helia said as held carefully onto Lynx, the shadows leaving now. You could see blood seeping from Lynx's chest, from a wound under Helia's hand. "Tensa, don't try to heal her with Chaos's powers it won't work to well at the moment. If I break our connection outside the mansion, he will take over again." Helia said panting softly. Her smile was weak on her lips and she turned to Remy. "Don't worry Remy I am not going anywhere, it seems I am calmer than I should be, is that because of you?" she asked softly.

They were trying to move to hold Lynx down her physical strength alarming for her size. Remy and Tensa moved as instructed not being able to do anything else sense their powers clearly had no effect on her. The more Helia bleed the more Remy panicked for her and felt his chest get tight. Gods there was a lot of blood. Then something happened and a shock sent Remy backwards hard. Tensa felt it go up his metallic arm and it hurt, but thanks to Helios he did not go flying backwards like Remy had. That was when he heard Lynx was crying he blinked seeing she was herself now and felt a breath of relief leave him. Helios though told him not to try and help her and the other man frowned and nodded to Helios. "Oh, alright...." His glasses had been broken somewhere in the mess, but he only would have a sore arm for a day.
Charles sent a message to Magik, who was trying to find out what she could on Chaos on hearing her friend was injured she ran outside sword left in her room. Tensa was shivering as the Phoenix argued to kill Lynx before Chaos took over again in his head he told it several colorful words. Rubbing his temples for a moment it relaxed once it knew it would not change his mind. Which he was glad for a raging fire bird of life force was not something he wanted to hear yelling in his brain. Looking at Helios then away he realized how powerless he truly was to help the twins and Lynx. They had saved her and all he had done was struggle to help them. Sighing he just shook his head pushing the nasty thoughts away knowing they would do no good for them. They were there though and that was enough for the Phoenix to start growing angry as well. It did not like being powerless.
Remy got up and walked over covering both ladies with his jacket and staying close as Magik walked over hugging Lynx. X-23 ran outside to and instantly was with them her face a mix of sadness and worry. "You gave e a heart attack never do that again Lynx. Please." X-23 said as Magik just rubbed her back and said. "Relax shh... He is fine. Banged up a little but he is alive. It was that thing not you." Her hand hovered over the wound and she said. "I can use magic to remove most of it, but.... we might have to call Stark if Hank cannot get the ones closer to her heart." Carefully Magik took Lynx in his arms Remy's jacket now wrapped around her as she turned and moved slowly to the lab not to jar the wound any. Before Helia could protest Remy had her in his hold and said. "You too cher." He stated firmly wanting her sides checked.
Tensa knew that Helios would want to go with his twin so he just followed. Though he was in shock at the fact both Kevin was down here and Ryoma. He looked at Jean who had left Cerbro to help. She frowned and said. "Something ripped the wolf from Kevin. He will live, but we do not know what it did to his powers." Tensa nodded then asked. "Ryoma?" Jean said. "Not good a lot of his insides were damaged and for some reason he is not healing. His factor seems to be on hold. Charles thinks it is because he does not have the will to make it work." Tensa frowned at that and sighed. Remy sat Helia down and Kittycame over asking quietly. "Um.. Helia do you mind if I look at you while Hank treats Lynx?" Kitty still felt like Helia did not trust her yet so the question might be too much. Magik set Lynx down on a bed and with X-23 stepped to the side as Hank came in to start treating the young girl. He never liked it when his rooms were filled with injured friends.

Lynx would not stop crying, Helia trying her best with all that she was feeling and wondering what all she could do. She turned her head to stare over at Tensa before she bit her bottom lip. "Tensa, hey Tensa snap out of it." Helios said as he turned the man's head and kissed his cheek. "Don't feel like your useless, it had not been for you holding Lynx down Helia would never be able to get to her and use her powers. I would never been able to push on. If you were not around, well I lose the urge to fight when shit hits the fan and my connection...my strong one is almost gone with Helia I think." he whispered as he rubbed his bruised knee and leg. "Do you think you could heal some sore tendons by any chance?" he asked putting Tensa's good hand on his sore leg.
Lynx would finally fall silent as she was able to separate herself from Lynx who had passed out for the moment or two. She however sensed Remy's worry and she let out a sigh. "Its alright Remy, if Tensa had not touched me it would have been a lot worse. He protected my internal organs and she only got muscle." Helia said then blinked looking up at Kitty. "Sure go ahead and stop thinking I don't trust you. Your one of the few people I like a lot around here." Helia spoke up and lifted her shirt
under her breasts so Kitty could look at the claw wounds under her rips. "No lungs either or spine. Though I think there is nerve damage, I can't feel my skin very well around the entrance wounds." Helia said softly.
Helia then turned her head and smiled at Magic. "Thanks for fixing Lynx up mostly for me. You really do love her, I saw it in your mind and heart." Helia whispered softly feeling her strength growing for some reason. Lynx groaned waking up and becoming more are of where she was now. "I'm sorry about...about scaring you." she replied finally to X-23 before coughing. "I am so sorry for everything...everything." she said as more tears streamed across her cheek. Once Helios on the other hand was healed her held onto Tensa's hand for a few moments. "Come on Lynx wants to thank you before she passes out again." Helios said.
However Lynx was fighting to get up and see Ryoma again, tears stained her face. "RYOMA I AM SO SORRY, DON'T DIE PLEASE....I NEED YOU!" she cried as Cylo appeared nad shoved her back. "I called Tony, he is on his way. I think whatever is linked to Chaos sucked the mutt out of Kevin." Cylo said to the others. He sighed brought his hand down to touch Lynx's forehead. She calmed slightly but he guessed she refused to sleep unless she knew Ryoma was healing. "I will do it." Helios said as he walked over to Ryoma and gently touched the man's body, over his heart and head. He began to heal what damage he could repeating Lynx's words inside the man's mind. "You die, Lynx will die...she hates herself for what happened, please Ryoma...for both your sakes live or we lose both of you." he said in the man's head.

Kitty stiffened and stood up straight for a moment trying to remind herself mind reading was something the kids could do. Sighing she shrugged and said. "I know just still, wish I could help more." Remy sat behind Helia a hand on her shoulder without his Jacket it was visible that is arms were well built like the rest of him lightly tanned as well. Kitty stayed quiet as she worked stitching the deeper cuts also she had to phase a little into Helia's body pulling out a bone tip. Then she wrapped Halia in thick white bandages and said. "Well we will know more about the nerve damage in a day or two. I personally cannot fix it but Hank has a few tricks and so does Emma for that." She scooted back and asked Hank if he needed help he said he would be alright and she went to check in on Kevin.
Magik just shrugged at the scomment and said. "She loves someone else. Won't get in the way of that." Magik once she knew Lynx was okay simply left X-23 just hugged Lynx and said. "Just get better okay. I need someone to gossip with." She winked and left as well. Tensa stayed with Helios checking the boys leg healing it lightly with the Phoenix powers. He blinked at Clyo and said. "Easy with the pushing Cylo. She is still recovering." He sounded calm and was more just stating a slight warning. Lord knew they did not need a fight in the medical wing. "Also we only need Tony if we cannot get the shrapnel out but also we need him to help Fordge with a containment room." Then he felt something and jumped up holding his head. "Damn it. That still feels crappy." The Phoenix was trying to get out more to heal others but he was suppressing it.
Ryoma after a few moments took a loud and deep breath and his body shook for a moment. Hank came over to check and said. "He is okay the gasp for air was just him coming out of the coma more. He probably will be doing that a lot." Ryoma returned to quiet though he seemed to be breathing easier. Emma suddenly spoke. "That is not what Ryoma is struggling with." Kitty looked at Emma confused and the Ice Queen sighed and said. "Ryoma struggles to feel and understand emotions because he cannot feel contact or pain. So the idea someone cares is odd to him and he does not know how to respond to it. IT is why he seems to be an ass most times. When he does not understand what is going on he gets on edge." She then walked over to Kevin and checked on him as well. "As for Kevin we have to get the Wolf back if we can just to even him or we have to hurry and figure out what happened."

Helia blinked feeling bad and allowed Kitty to keep working on her. "I am doing my best, your a good friend kitty and thank you so much." she whispered before her eyes grew heavy but she refused to sleep just yet. "I might let them both help me if the damage is too bad and I can't feel." Helia whispered to Remy and gently lay her head against his chest hugging him carefully. She then let out a heavy sigh and let the tears stream down her cheeks softly. "I hurt Lynx, inside I mean. Showed her how Lgan feels and how Ryoma feels. Poor girl's heart is aching, her soul." Helia whispered to Remy. "She cares for Ryoma as a friend, hates herself for hurting him and she is angry at Logan. Not to mention I think she is bisexual...she is attached to Magik...I hope someone can love her like you do with me." she whispered softly.
Cylo shut his mouth and nodded his head as he simply vanished with a low pop and was gone from the room feeling like he was not needed, not that he didn't mind though. He was tracking Chaos down with some other mutants from afar. "I will try but right now its going to be hard. I love one man and a woman, why am I so fucked up?" Lynx said as the other two left. She just rolled onto her side the best she could and pulled her knees up against her chest, her wound had healed slowly but she knew moving around could make the shrapnel entered her heart. Helios bit his lip worried about everyone but smiled when Hank told him that Ryoma was alright.
"Thank God, that will keep Lynx hanging on now. She was thinking about letting go if he died, she hates herself so much right now. I would watch her Hank...so she doesn't try anything." Helios warned and gently touched Ryoma's cheek. "Good man, hang in there. I want to train with you when you wake up and get better, maybe make it so you can feel some emotion and pain." he said softly. "Oh...Cylo headed to find Chaos with the others, he can help get the wolf back for Kevin." Helios said to Emma as she touched her hand gently. "Look I know we didn't get along before but your a good person, I thank you for standing up for us." Helios replied.
Helios felt drained but he would not stop until things had calmed down a bit, his body ached as well. "Emma, if you can help my sister if she gets nerve damage, it would mean a lot to the both of us. Also...your not an ice queen or any of those names. I think your as pretty as an angel and I don't say that to any women." He said honestly wondering if she could tell he was mostly gay. Helia meanwhile had wrapped a blanket around her and Remy, refusing to let him leave as she fell into a deep sleep, her mind closed out everyone but her twin or Charles if they needed to speak to her about something.
Helios let out a heavy sigh and slumped into a chair as close as he could to Tensa his mind wondering for awhile until he clamped his hands over his temples. "Ah...fuck..I found Chaos....damn it....someone...get help. You can track him...through me." He croaked as he tried to fight of the pain. However he would not get taken over, he refused to do such a thing. He groaned as someone helped him up, feeling pain leaving his body and he started to relax even though his vision was blurry he was glad he was safe.

Remy was not going anywhere anytime soon as he held Helia he just nizzled up close and said to her. "Shh cher it is okay Lynx will understand. Poor girl is going to need you right now before her heart gets hurt again." He stayed holding her and went on. "I vote when this shit storm done we go to my home land and get some good food and drinks what you say?" His hands ran up and down her back along her hair also as he spoke wanting to keep her calm. He would skip her wounds his theif's hands skilled and not even tickling her. Remy only could let her feel how much he cared for her and wanted her to be happy. His eyes though closed a little as well almost falling asleep a few times. When he heard Helios ask Emma to talk to Helia and see if she could help her he made sure to sit up. The blonde listened to Helios suddenly flushing a tiny bit not used to compliments. Remy felt bad for her knowing how much she was trying to fit into their family.
Emma came over and lightly rubbed Helia she wanted Helia to be awake. With good reason. For to her doing anything that had to do with the mind or body the person having it down should give the consent. "Helia? It is Emma can you wake up a moment?" She was sitting by the bed. One thing was different though normally Emma wore slightly risky clothes, off the shoulders or short skirts and such. Right now though she was dressed in long pants and a long sleeved top her lips also were pail. Emma had gone too far trying to keep the wall up around the school and in returned had given herself a light fever.
Magik cane back holding a small orb and sat by Lynx. "Lynx... hey... This can remove the shrapnel from near your heart. It will hurt some and you will have to take it easy. No sparring for about a week or so depending on how you heal up. But I can get it out." Megik did not tell the part where it would shift the shrapnel into her. Magik though could not die from it even if it hit her armor. It would hurt but she would not die because of the fact she now had demon in her. Dr. Strange had assured her while she would be weak to more holy relics man made weapons no longer would kill her. "So what do you say? Wanna try it?"
Tensa suddenly lept up to Helios and grabbing the boys head suddenly also was in hsi mind the Phoenix and him using the chance to locate Chaos. The Phoenix though was careful not to hurt Helois saying simply. " Easy young human. I mean Mutant. I mean... Never mind" It sounded tired as it moved and Tensa stayed still as he forced himself to find Chaos. The problem it was as if he was astral projecting as well suddenly standing right by the entity.

Remy would see a smile come to her lips as she slept against him, listening to him speak as he ran his hands over her body in a comforting way. "I would really like that Remy." she muttered in her sleep, her head pushed into his chest. She was so glad that he was there and that he was holding her so close to him. She shivered slightly though as she felt herself being awoken by Emma and she lifted her head staring up at the older female. "What is it Emma?" she asked softly. However you could see that she did not have an angry look on her face. She had a more sleepy yet worried look about her. "My head kind of hurts a bit, does Hank have anything I can take?" she asked.
Lynx blinked and lifted her head staring at Magik, she bit her lip as a worried look came over her face. "Are...are you sure that is a good idea? It looks magical, should I be wary of it?" Lynx tried to joke but ended up wincing when she laughed. "If you think it will work then I will try it, just take it easy yourself as well. You may use magic but I care about you and it worries me when you push yourself to much for my stupid skin." Lynx said gently and slowly touched Magik's face. "How is he, how is Ryoma? I hope he is getting better." she said as tears ran down her cheeks, she slowly lay back.
Helios went wide eyed and yelped when he was grabbed, he squirmed as a strange feeling took over him. "What are you doing, stop it please. It hurts, my mind is starting to burn up!" Helios croaked as sweat began to run down his brow. He groaned and both him and Tensa would back up onto a bed. He would shutter and lean his head against Tensa's forehead. "Please stop straining Tensa if you can hear me Phoenix, I love him and want him back in one piece." he begged. He could feel a fever growing in his head and he grew hotter.

Emma smiled then laughed a little at Remy's bed head. "So, even tired you manage to look half good." Remy shrugged and moved to a chair slowly saying. "I am going to get coffee be back soon." With that he walked out of the room. Emma said to Helia." I am sure Hank has something." She turned going to the door to ask and Hank replied softly. Going back to the bedside Emma said to Helia. "He has something but would feel better if you ate a little too much medicine can start to eat at your belly and cause more problems. So, while he calls Remy to grab you some toast at least how about you tell me where you feel the numbness or pain. Hank and your brother are worried about nerve damage. If it is mild enough or at least in the right areas I might be able to help it heal though it will possibly take more than one time. Jean and I are rather spent after this morning and Scott is not helping." Emma kept most of that topic out Scott wanted the twins gone after what had taken place and he wanted Lynx locked up. Logan, Jean and herself had been arguing with him for hours while Professor tried to get control of it. Scott had been so angry he somehow broke the glasses and hit Emma. Lucky she had sensed it and gone diamond skin just in time though it hurt her chest none the less.
Magik looked at Lynx and said. "Well he is not in a coma at least but Hank is still worried. His healing factor is slower than normal. Logan says it is probably from the amount of damage or from the fact he cannot feel the pain. Pain would tell his body it needs to heal but because he cannot feel it his body is not moving as fast as yours or Logan's might. That and there is the emotional stuff. Honestly he got handed a shit tastic power. Cannot feel pain and thus emotional shit is hard too. His childhood must have been interesting. Do not worry though he does not blame you. He knows he is an ass hole." Magik made the orb go over Lynx chest concentrating. In a flash the metal would leave and the orb slammed into Magik's chest. She hissed and said. "Little harder than I thought it be but it is okay." She took several deep breaths and said to Lynx. "You owe me dinner or a movie for that. Also a thank you to Doctor Strange he gave me the orb." Getting up slowly she reminded Lynx. "So take it easy, rest heal and then we will find that basterd and deal with him." She wanted her claws on Chaos.
Tensa waited then let go the Phoenix knew both their limits and it was in partial control. "Found him. We know where he is now." Sending it to the Professor and Jean both ran to Crebro to get a lock on it. No one was in shape to fight Chaos but they could at least make sure he was not at the school. Tensa then laid down with Helios and pulled him close to keep him calm. "Sorry. Did not mean to hold on so long. I promise I did not mean to hurt you." He hoped Helios would heal okay not knowing how the boy would respond to the powers of the Phoenix,
