The Homecoming
Part 2 of 10
Alex Summers
He grabbed Rogue’s hand as they left the main room to head to their jet. He could tell Scott and his dad were curious so he quickly added, “She’s family.” He wasn’t going to explain that they were planning to have a quiet wedding at the court house while Scott was here.
He was glad that neither Scott or his father pressed the issue since he wasn’t convinced now was a good time to discuss the news they’d had recently. Once they were in the jet and the door was closed he saw Scott fiddling with his watch and then he looked back up as if he was having trouble deciding where to start. “Just tell us what’s going on son,” their dad said patiently.
“The whole thing starts when one of my crew a low level telepath noticed some of my memories had been altered.” Scott said with a frown. “They couldn’t undo the alteration they weren’t that powerful but they could tell me which memories had been altered.” He looked away then. “So I found a telepath who could undo the alteration.”
“Krakoa didn’t release me a team of X-men sent before the new Team Xavier recruited got me free but two of them were killed and two were left behind seriously injured.” He looked even grimmer as he went on. “Krakoa may have been sapient, I’m not sure, but it was definitely Xavier’s manipulation that made us think it had released me.”
“Were they still on the island when it was sent into space?” He asked he could feel Rogue squeezing his hand. She hadn’t been a member of the X-men then but she knew all about the story. Scott nodded in response. “We killed two X-men and the Professor let us do it?”
“It is worse than you think Alex, one of the two X-men left behind on Krakoa was our brother Gabriel.” He looked over at his dad to see real shock. “I’m sorry to have to tell you this Dad but Mom was pregnant when the two of you were taken by the Shiar.” Scott went on woodenly as if he was discussing a mission. “The embryo was removed from her and stored for further study since it had unusual genetic markers.” He glanced over at Rogue to see she looked ready to cry at this.
“How did you learn all this?” His father asked then since Scott was taking a break. “Is this why you ignored Xavier’s attempts to contact you for so long?” Scott nodded his head and seemed lost in thought.
“I learned a lot of things during that time including that we have another brother who isn’t your son dad.” Scott said apologetically. “When they realized the mutant potential in mom’s dna D’ken had a hybrid child bred.” He could see how much that revelation rocked their father. “But I’ll get to him later I need to tell you the rest before you meet Gabriel.” He knew he was staring but Scott just said their brother was alive. His dad and Rogue were also staring. “I went to Krakoa and found him alive in suspended animation some how and took him to a doctor who managed to revive him and separate his fellow X-man Darwin out of him.” It sounded like a miracle but one look at Scott’s face showed things hadn’t turned out well. “I don’t know if it was being trapped like that or what but he came out of it unstable he attacked me for abandoning him and killed several members of my crew we disabled him and my crew wanted him dead but I refused.” Scott looked grim. “The survivors of my crew knocked me out after that and had the Doctor perform a specialized lobotomy on him that destroyed his ability to ever use his powers.” He seemed lost in thought. “After that I tracked down our half brother and brought Darwin, Gabriel and Adam to Earth and left them with our grand parents.” Scott looked undecided. “Gabriel needed time to recover from everything so I’ve been keeping things quiet I was planning to tell you both as soon as I could get you both alone but Xavier forced me to speed things up.”
He got up then and headed to the controls. “We’re going to Alaska,” He said careful to keep his anger at his brother once again trying to handle everything himself without telling anyone. “Rogue let the X-men and X-factor know we have family business and will be away for a while.” She nodded and went to let the others know. He looked over at his dad who was sitting there in silence and at Scott who was glancing out the window at the mansion.
