"Surely" J.R. said as he stood up and looked out his picturesqe window and grinned and evil grin as he said "Tell Logan he gave me his fleas." He walked into the busy hallway and passed two fellow X-MEN, Kitty and Arora as he made his way to the girls dorms. He was almost to Stacey's room when he caught the smell of stir fry.
"Well, looks like you introduced Stacey to your stir fry, Tj." J.R. said as he stood in the doorway.
"Bloodwolf!" Tj said suprisingly. "Sorry I was hungary and I didn't want to go to the mess hall and I had this recipe from china and... "It's alright I don't care, besides," He said to Stacey, "Wait 'till you try her spaghetti it's awesome."
"However I need Stacey to accompany me to Cerebro's office so you kids can play later." J.R. said as he looked at Stacey. "Come on Red, this way." He said as he guided her to Cerbro's office.
"So, do you like it here so far?" J.R. asked as he walked beside the beautiful red head.
"I find it to be a sanctuary for some, a home for others, and a crutch for those who have nothing." J.R. said as they got to Cerebro's office.
Logan was leaving as they got there and he just stared at her as he was leaving. "So, yer the new hot-bird, huh? kinda scrawny ain't ya?" Logan sneered as he stood infront of the door.

"That will be enough, Logan," Cerebro said as he stood up and walked around from behind the desk. He then extended his hand to the frightened young woman, "Stacey, my name is Cerebro. Welcome to Xavier's Im sure you have a lot of questions you want to ask."

"So your Cerebro uh," She said softy. "When we spoke on the phone you seemed to have left out somethings." Closing her eyes she held out her hand, making a fist. Taking a deep breath, everyone watched as her fist became engulfed in flames. "I didn't asked for this curse. And the orphanage didn't asked to be left in ashes either." She said as she opened her eyes. Unparsed by the flames. As if blowing out a candle, Stacey quick put out the flames. Reveling a perfectly unharmed hand.

The headmaster gave her a warm smile, "No, they did not. And the authorities realized that it was an accident and made arrangements fo you to come here."
Cerebro telekineticly lifted the cup of herbal tea he had been drinking since his discussion with Bishop to calm down and brought it to where he was standing. He took a sip as he considered his next words.
"As for the unmentioned 'curse' as you call it, " he said at last, his warm reassuring tone never wavering, "I tend to deal with facts not guesses. While you are with us, we will find out if you are or are not the host to the Phoenix Force and train you properly either way."

"I think one of your students just broke a window." She said. Then stopped puzzled. "How do I know that? I think it's on the other side of the mansion?" Giving a look to the men in the room she replied," This is too weird. When do we start?"

Cerebro nodded to Jr, who went to investigate what Stacey had just said. "We will start your formal training tomorrow morning." He said sitting down in one of the chairs set off to the side of the room, "I thought we could take some time and talk."
He motioned for her to sit in the chair opposite his.

A teen aged boy gave a wicked grin as he watched the man known as J.R. walk out of Cerebro's office. Taking his leave down the hall he made his way out of the school. Once out of sight, Mystique changed back into her true form. Now the tall blue skinned women stood in the woods that surrounded the school. "So," She hissed to herself. "A new Phoenix." Quickly she left, making her way to a car hidden just beyond the gates. The driver, a small green skinned man. His eyes looked more animal then human. As soon as she was inside. The driver pushed the gas petal and they were off. "Seems like the phoenix force is back. If we could just get her on our side. Then will teach man-kind a lesson." She said as she watched the drivers tongue stretch out to wrap around the wheel. "Put that thing back in your mouth. And your hands on the wheel!"

A small vid screen in the panal in front of the shapeshifter winked to life. On it was a viasge that appeared to have been cut out of marble by a master artist. He had been born Nathanial Essex, but due to the changes he endured at the hands of the mad Apocolypse he became known simply as Mr. Sinister.
Sinister smiled. That was enough to send even the brave human running in abject terror. As it was Mystique felt a shiver run down her smile. "When I agreed to have my Nasty Boys work with your Brotherhood, my dear," he began without preemble in a chillingly cheery way, "It was with the understanding that we would pool our resources and information to combat the growing threat of the XSE."
He leaned forward in the screen so his face took filled it totally, his smile gone like morning mist, "You havent been faithful to that promise." His voice was as hard and cold as an artic iceberg.

Walking out J.R. stopped sniffed the air and growled a low growl. His eyes changing into the wolf's eyes he headed towards the scent of her. He tracked her scent all the way to the woods and it died as he reached the road. "Mystique." he growled.
He rushed back towards Cerebro's office bumping into Logan. "Hey watch where your goin' bub." He said.
"Not now Wolverine!" J.R. shouted as he ran towards the office.
"You never call me that unless there's troub..." He smelled her and also began runnig towards the office, claws extended.
"Cerebro!" J.R. shouted as he barged in followed by Logan.
"She was here, she broke the window, I fear she knows!"

"You have seemed to underestimate me," Mystique said in a way that poured with lust. "Calm down and listen. Something has got the mansion all worried. Or should I say someone. Someone that could be quite useful to our cause." She said as she slowly began to change into, someone familiar, Jean Gray. "From the ashes victory." she hissed.

"Then the rumors are true," Sinister purred back, his voice dripping with honey and acid, "The Phoenix Force has returned to poor old Earth.
Mr. Sinister leaned back and rubbed his chin and the thin dark goatee on it. This changed alot of his plans and created numerous questions in his logical mind. Questions that needed answered.
"And my dear, Msytique, I never underestimate you" Sinister said after a few moments, "Your history for self serving is more then well known."
"Do you think you can bring her to our side?" he asked the shapeshifter. His tone was unmistakable, he wanted the new firebird and she was to get her at any cost.

Cerebro looked up as JR barged in speaking rapidly inbetween growls. Taking a second, he scanned his friends mind in order to understand just which she he was refering to. His eyes bolted open.
"Mystique," he hissed, "Appearently the break in at the XSE base in D.C. was more then anyone believed if that devil made past our defense systems! Sound alert and close down the grounds."
Again the telepath closed his eyes and scanned a much larger area this time. He doubted that he could pick up her thoughts, given how long she had been playing this game of cloak and dagger he was sure that she had a way of preventing telepathic detection. So Cerebro played a hunch and searched for areas where he couldnt sense anything. He grinned when he found such a spot.
"Wolverine, your with me, bring Nocturne and anyone else you can grab, Mystique is just off campus." Cerebro said in his leader's voice, "JR, stay here and make sure nothing happens to our newest student!"
With that he was out the door to his office.

Stacey looked at J.r. once everyone had left. "I don't need a babysitter. I can handle myself."

"Well, Cerebro said to stay with you so I am staying right here." J.R. said with a growl.

The toady driver let out a large yelp of surprise as a giant foot came slamming down, effectively blocking the roadway. He rammed his own feet on the brakes but it was too late. The expensive limo crumpled against the arch of the foot like a beer can against a wall.
Amazingly the toady survived and managed to pull himself out of the drivers seat just as Mystique pulled herself out of the relatively undamaged back end. He looked up and saw a tall woman attached to the accident causing foot looking down at him with an angry look on her face.
"Excellent work, Giantess!" the toady heard from behind. He turned and saw Cerebro leading several X-Men including Wolverine and Nocturne right for them. "I want Mystique and her little toad in custody toot sweet! That means no killing, Old Man!"
Wolverine's claws popped out with their signature sound, "Can I at least rough her up a little? I still owe her and her Brotherhood for the lumps they gave me, Chamber and Husk last month in Japen!"
The toady ran forward and lashed out his tongue like a whip only to have it caught by Cerebro. The next thing the toady knew was pure white hot pain lanceing through his mind. Cerebro let go of the slimey tongue and the toady dropped to the ground.
"Leave limbs in place," was all he said as he turned his focus to the shapeshifting spy.
