Fuck... That's awful. At least Warren has stupidly fast healing properties in his blood. He'll probably be good as new in a couple of days. Any idea who was trying to kill him?
No, there's something wrong. He's not healing. I don't even know where I am, but there's a giant blue hairy dude here trying to help him. Something called the Brotherhood? I suggested taking him back to our labs, but John looked like he wanted to murder me. So I brought him here.
What? He's not healing? But why? That doesn't make any sense. That's Beast. He knows what he's doing. The Brotherhood? That's the group of mutants John used to be a part of... When he left, they weren't very happy, considering they're our enemies. Yeah, no. It's better he stays here. Beast and the other healers will know what to do... at least I hope, if he isn't healing.
I don't know. I don't really know the ins and outs of all you guys. He's pretty broken up, he got shot in the shoulder and went through to his wing. He didn't fly to safety, so maybe he couldn't? The blue dude thinks it might have been a poisoned bullet. I don't know what went down, I just heard there was an X-Men member on a roof top in serious danger. I just didn't know if you would be a target too. I felt seriously sick thinking it might have been you.
Fuck, seriously? This... Is he conscious at least? What about John? Does John know he's hurt? Holy shit. Warren's usually so good at healing up quickly. It's gotta be something scary if he's not healing. No... No, I'm okay. I'm safe. Do you... Do you think you could stay here tonight, though?
No, love, he fell pretty far. He's not conscious. John was there. He told me where to take Warren. Yeah, I can stay. I think they want to talk to me more, but I honestly don't know much.
Fuck... Warren's like another older brother to me. John was there? Did he get hurt, too? Is he okay? They'll want to know anything you do know... put all the little pieces together. Fuck. Do you have to stay there now? I wanna come check on Warren, but I don't want to be in the way.
John's... angry. Very angry. I gave them as much as I could, but I only saw the aftermath, really. I don't know what made it all go down like it did. There were a pile of people here, but they all seem to have dispersed. I don't think they need much more from me. I met your brother.
As anybody would be in his position. The Brotherhood used to be his team... His own band of brothers so to speak. And when he came back to us, it was nasty, because they hate us so much. You met Scott? Shit. This isn't really the kind of circumstances I was hoping you'd meet him in. He's kind of scary when one of us is in danger. I'm going to come down for a second and then if you want, you can come and lie down with me? I feel like there may be a really good reason for cuddles tonight.
Oh, that explains a lot then. A hell of a lot. No, Scott was kind of... well, interrogatory I guess is the best description. But it's okay. One of your friends is really hurt. I don't mind talking to anyone about it. Sure, if I can get out of this suit after sweating so much. I might need a hand.
Was Scott at least respectful? Because I don't want him treating you like shit. It's... Warren was left in charge while Scott was gone. It's a big deal. I'll help. That's no problem. I may have something you can wear for now.
He was accusatory, a concept that rarely comes with respect. He got really hurt. I'm surprised he even had a pulse when I got to him. A normal human probably wouldn't have.
No, it doesn't. Shit. That's not cool. I'm going to talk to him. That's not okay, and he's not allowed to talk to you like that. I can't believe that happened to him. It's mindblowing to imagine someone hurting Warren. He's such an awesome dude.
Don't worry about it. I'm a big boy, I can take conflict. You don't need to talk to him about picking on me. It wasn't someone, it was a group of someone's.
