"Percy, this is Kurt." Charles told me. The blue man walked toward me and I staggered back. I ran into a table and sent things falling to the ground. Finally I hit the wall. The man had taken a few more steps toward me but then stopped. The others surrounded me.

I covered my head and tried to push it away. Fear rises up in me, along with the soldier. I tried to shove them both down. The professor would have answers, there is a reason he's here.

Yeah, another part of me said, to kill you.

"Stop!" I said to myself. I tried to push everything down but it kept comping. "No, no, no, no" there was nothing I could do.

Just before I lost control I looked up. Logan was kneeling above me, confusion in his eyes. "I'm sorry." I told him. "Do what you need to."

Then I was gone.

Logan

I saw the kid flinch when Kurt appeared. I assumed he was just surprised at his show of powers. But when he looked visibly frightened and started backing up I knew something was off. He had looked Hank right in the eye with no fear. So there had to be something about Kurt.

I kneeled down next to Percy when he started talking. I couldn't make out much but I heard stop and no.

He looked up at me and I saw terror in his eyes. "I'm sorry. Do what you need to."

Then he stood up and kicked me in the chest. I could see pain in his eyes but other than that his face was expressionless. This is what Stark had warned us of, this was the Destroyer.

While I was down he moved on to the others. They were all confused, not understanding what just happened. "It's not Percy." I yelled as I stood up. "He's the destroyer, take him down."

I ran at him just before he reached Kurt. I assumed that he is who was identified as the threat. We needed to keep them apart. I locked eyes with the blue man, "Get out of here. It's you he wants."

He disappeared in a puff of blue smoke. I tackled the kid to the ground but he starting bucking around. Hank also came over and helped me hold him down. I sat on his back and held down his arms. Hank tried to keep the kids legs from kicking me off.

The others seemed to finally snap out of their daze as they rushed over the help.

"Charles, this would be a really good time to take him out." Scott commented.

"I'm trying. His mind is resisting me, I'm not sure if I can."

"Then get something to sedate him!" I growled. Almost five minutes later a needle was handed to Jean. She stuck it in the base of his neck. The kid continued to fight for over a minute before he slowed down.

Once we knew he was out we let him go. I stood up last and just looked at the kid for a minute. He was laying there, looking completely harmless. If he lost control around the students, I didn't want to think about what would happen.

"Why did it take so long for him to get knocked out?" I ask.

"He is obviously enhanced. He may have been gives something similar to Captain Rogers. But he is strong, very strong. For most people it would be easier to enter their minds while they are distracted my a fight. But somehow, his mental walls just became stronger. He will be difficult that's for sure." Charles said quietly.

"What about now?" Storm asked.

He paused for a moment, "They are still there but weakened. Let's get him restrained and I will begin."

I picked the kid up and put him on a table, restraining his feet and arms. (Don't asked why everyone has the correct kind of table just go with it) Charles came over and placed his hand on Percy's forehead.

"Leave us."

"If anything happens-" I started but he cut me off.

"You will know, now go."

Percy Stark

When I woke up my mind was fuzzy. I couldn't get a clear thought through, and I could feel a slight throb. When I regained my composure enough to open my eyes, I saw Professor Xavier sitting above me, with his hand on my head.

His eyes were closed, and his face was right in concentration. I was about to say something when I heard a voice in my head.

"Please stay calm and don't panic. You had one of your 'blackouts' and I decided it would be best to try and get started as soon as possible. And your mind was easier to work with while you were unconscious. Now pleases try and keep your mind clear and stay quiet." The Voice in my head that belonged to the professor was stern and even, but I could hear the strain.

I tried to keep my mind clear, but I could almost feel what he was doing. It's like he was untangling a ball of yarn. But the yarn is my brain and he is using invisible hands to untangle the mess. Occasionally I would feel a string pull and sometimes it was like a weight being removed from me. But other times it was like both my mind and body would protest the change. I would not be able to stop my body from violently lashing and crying out in pain.

After what seemed like hours, he professor removed his hand from my head. "Are we done?" I asked.

"For now." He responded, "But we have barely even scratched the surface. This will be a long process. But for now, we both need our rest. I will call Logan down to show you to your room."

Before I could say anything he wheeled away. I was still restrained to the table. I was glad they were there, because the couple of times I thrashed around, if the restraints weren't there, I could have hurt the professor.

After a few minutes Logan walked into the lab. He removed my restraints and helped me sit up.

"You look horrible bub." He told me in his right voice.

"Thanks." Was all I could manage. I hadn't realized how tired I was until just now. "What time is it?"

"2:47 a.m."

"I've been here for over 12 hours?" I asked surprised. The older man nodded. "How long was," I motioned to where the professor had been. 

"Close to 11 hours. It's going to take him awhile to remove everything HYDRA did to you." We started walking toward the main floors. "But trust me, if anyone can help you it will be Charles. Your in good hands."

I nodded slightly. "Thank you. For everything Logan."

The other man nodded and we were silent the rest of the way to my room.
