So far, only three individuals have "cured" themselves from M-Pox. The first was S.H.I.E.L.D. agent Cassandra Reed. The second was Gabriel Summers A.K.A. Vulcan. The last was the son of Charles Xavier, David Haller A.K.A. Legion.[/hider][hr][hr][color=f7941d][b]The Mutant Underground[/b][/color]

	Veil smiled wryly at her brother's overprotectiveness. It was a little bit bittersweet, having someone so worried about her. She returned her brother's hug, having dropped her force fields. She could feel him crying, she didn't need to visually confirm it. She hugged him a little tighter, hoping that it would calm him down. She had gotten used to things like this happening - she was almost a little numb to the danger and the violence. [color=935DB8]"Hey, you're not going to lose me,"[/color] she reassured him quietly. [color=935DB8]"It'll take more than a few rocks to take me out."[/color]

	Veil hesitated for a moment, not certain how much was a good idea to share about Glimpse at the moment. Morale was low, with the bomb threat and Stareyes' condition. They had been able to rally together for a rescue effort, and Veil didn't want to ask more of them - but at the same time, she didn't believe in withholding information. She wasn't like Xavier when it came to keeping secrets. [color=935DB8]"Glimpse killed a mutant in front of some S.H.I.E.L.D. agents,"[/color] she explained quickly. [color=935DB8]"She did it to protect us from the Hellfire goons... and she decided to leave. Maybe her father can fix it for her, I don't know. I don't know if she got out before the collapse."[/color]

	[color=FAFD95]"Seriously, you sound worse the more you talk,"[/color] Havok pointed out to Sapphire, raising an eyebrow. He had a hand on her shoulder, just to make sure that she didn't fall or anything with the way she was behaving. 

	Casper went straight after James (or rather, gayly after James?). He didn't know if James was going to hurl, if he had been injured, or what - everything had been completely insane but he knew that his boyfriend needed him. He found James on the floor and Casper knelt down next to him, wrapping his arms around him. He could feel the tension in James' body and even as his own head was swimming from fatigue, none of that mattered. All that mattered was that James was okay. 

	He rocked James gently, before singing softly a lullaby that his [i]maman[/i] used to sing when he was sick. [color=DBA1DE]"À la claire fontaine, m'en allat promener, j'ai trouvé l'eau si belle, que je m'y suis baigné. Il y a longtemps que je t'aime, jamais je ne t'oublerai,"[/color] he sang softly. [color=DBA1DE]"Sous les feuilles d'un chêne, je me suis fait sécher, sur la plus haute branche, un rossignol chantait. Il y a longtemps que je t'aime, jamais je ne t'oublerai."[/color]

	He didn't even consider that Max was in the room as well, just focusing on comforting James as best as he could. 

	Meanwhile in the entranceway, Sunshine nodded at Zarina. They really needed to go tell the others what was going on, at least the potential good news that they had. Zarina was being purposefully mysterious and Sunshine just didn't have the emotional bandwidth to press her about it at the moment. [color=#DAF7A6]"Come on, then,"[/color] she said, motioning for Greenie to follow her as she went up the stairs and found the others. She paused for a moment, seeing a human popsicle. 

	Her first thought was that Max did something horrible, but ice was more Sapphire's thing and Max tended to throw around fire. If there had been a crispy corpse in front of them, then it definitely would've been Max. She tilted her head slightly, trying to tell who exactly it was frozen in there - had Sapphire finally lost her cool on Glimpse? [color=#DAF7A6]"Soooo you all clearly had fun. Greenie found the bombs, she thinks she can defuse them."[/color]

[hider=Translation]At a clear fountain, when going for a walk, I found the water so beautiful, that I bathed there. I have loved you for a long time, I will never forget you. Under the leaves of an oak, I dried myself, On the highest branch, a nightingale was singing. I have loved you for a long time, I will never forget you.[/hider]
