Chapter 8 Unexpected help

<What ...> responds Hank involuntarily being caught of guard that with the
new voice. A voice that he is sure he knows but is not able to place.

<Who are you and what are you doing here!> states Jean threateningly, not
even really asking the question as more preparing herself to annihilate the
intruder.

Unable to recognize the mind that has invaded, the linked minds in the
Medical Room, but sensing the strength behind it Jean decides to go all
out. The room's temperature rapidly increases as Jean is engulfed in
flames. <He failed to block the transformation. That will be his last
mistake> mocks Phoenix as she bears down on the invader's mind, preparing
to scorch all remnants of its existence.

"Ahhh," screams Hank as he jumps back and high into the air, his right arm
on fire from the flash fire that erupted from Jean.

<Good the shield protected Hank from any further burns, fuck I can't get
the flames on Jean to die down> thinks Sue as she uses her barrier powers
to not only battle the flames on Jean but also smother the fires that were
on Hank.

<What threw Hank through the air?> asks Reed as he stretches his body to
the limit to protect Hank from flying into the ceiling.  <I have to push
past the pain> as he grunts from the strain of stretching so far so fast.

"Well thank you," says Hank after being caught by Reed. He notices the
sweat beads and pained look on Reed's face, "Stop straining yourself and
get back to normal, I can land from this height."

<Thank god, Hank is heavier than he looks> as Reed lets go of Hank, so they
both can return quickly to the ground. <It felt as if Hank was mostly
muscle, I would have never have guessed with the lab coat on>

"I can't get the flames to die down," exclaims Sue. "It's like they have a
life of their own."

Just then an ungodly scream from the intruder of such intensity pierces
their minds, momentarily blinding all thoughts.

<Jean stop! Get control of yourself now!> yells the Professor. <I've
already handled the situation stop your assault! It's Ric, a student of the
institute!>

<I know all the gifted telepaths and this is not one of them> states
Phoenix defiantly as she presses her attack. She feels the trembling mind
before her and smiles to herself as she prepares to engulf the now
defenseless entity. <Foolish boy did you really think you could ever
compare to me>

The Professor directly assaults Jean's mind realizing that he is not
dealing with Jean but with her alter ego, Phoenix. In this state Jean is at
her strongest, but she is not in full control of her powers.. Instead
lashing out in rages and finding pleasure in the destruction that she
causes.

<Phoenix I command you to stop your assault right now!> demands the
Professor as he continues to press on even as the Phoenix attempts to lay
waste his mind.

<Who are you Charles to command me!> roars Phoenix forgetting for the
moment the defeated mind that she has surrounded.

<You know very well who I am!> says Professor X remembering that he put the
part of Jean in the back of her mind and buried it.

<Do you dare compare your power to mine Charles!> gathering her strength to
show that she is stronger than the first time they met.

<You are still but an ill-tempered child Phoenix> says Professor X as he
sees the holes in her defenses. <I see that you have become stronger as
Jean has grown in strength>

<I am more than Jean, Charles, and I will not go back to unconsciousness!>
Phoenix unleashes all of her strength upon the Professor in an attempt to
overwhelm him. <I wilk be in charge of this body not Jean>

The Professor vastly more experienced in mental battles easily dodges most
of the fury that is the Phoenix. But never lets done his guard, knowing
that though she is inexperienced her attack far exceeds his own.  He picks
his spots to devastating effect, and allowing for limited damage to
himself.

<Phoenix stop this foolishness, you must know that you can not win> demands
Professor X after repeated assaults weakening her.

<I will not go back, I will not!> screams Phoenix increasing her strength
yet again but in an even more uncontrolled fury.

Realizing that unknowingly she is now engulfing Ric's mind <Phoenix, Jean
will never allow you to rest if you kill an innocent>

<That boy, he attacked he invaded, he ...>

Cutting her off <I tell you now that he is innocent.  Further not only is
he innocent, he does not have the strength to hurt you, this school or me
telepathically> states Professor X.

<He had strength enough ...>

<No the strength was not his, but borrowed> states Professor X again
cutting her off, keeping her of balance and confused.  <Jean will not
tolerate you killing an innocent>

<I am stronger than Jean, Charles; I will defeat her if she gets in my way>
rushing on before the Professor can interrupt her again <Shut up, not only
that I will kill this boy if you try to push me back again. I am not going
back> She increases the flames around Ric's mind to prove that she is
serious that she will kill him.

<Please I'm sorry. Whatever I did I'm sorry. Please I'm sorry. I'm sorry; I
don't want to fight you. Never wanted to fight you. I'm sorry I was trying
to protect myself when you attacked me> pleads Ric to Phoenix as he feels
smothered by the overwhelming power that is surrounding and crushing him.

<Phoenix, he was never a danger, Jean just over reacted> explains the
Professor. <The reason why I did not end your existence when you and I
first fought was because you and Jean are one and the same> the Professor
pauses so that that revelation can sink in. <You and Jean are one and the
same and I promise you Jean will die fighting you if you kill Ric>

<I won't go back, Charles, I would rather die here and now> roars Phoenix
preparing for a final assault.

<You do not have to go back, but you must stop this attack now> states the
Professor. <I will not make you go back, but you must realize I can not
allow you to be the one, the host>

<Then what do you propose Charles> asks the Phoenix for the first time
intrigued.

<Jean only started calling me Charles awhile ago and you have not called me
anything but Charles> states Professor X as he laughs at himself for not
realizing it sooner. <If I put you back again you will just dig your way
out, you have been in communication with Jean for some time Phoenix> he
waits for an answer but none comes. <I will not force you back but you must
allow Jean to be in control>

In an uncontrolled fury the Phoenix increases all the flames to their max,
<Why should I do that Charles> mistakenly burning where Ric's mind was.

The Professor expected this and had already removed Ric and place him in a
como out of harms way. <That is why Phoenix, you are not unable to control
yourself. For both your sacks accept this fact. You do not have to retreat
to the outer edges of Jean's unconsciousness. Come out in the open; be with
Jean's consciousness. Be complete, just Jean in front and in control>

<I will have say in how we act> demands Phoenix

<Yes you will have a much bigger say than you have ever had before, I
promise> states Jean as she regains control of her mind.

<It is good to have you back Jean> says the Professor happily <Are you
aware of the past events?>

<Yes, Charles, but let's talk about them later. How is Ric?>

<Truthfully his mind is ravaged but the core is fine. The damage is
actually haphazard, the Phoenix, I mean you never got the chance to do an
all-out assault> states Professor X gratefully <I calmed his mind so that
it would induce a coma, I believe that we can heal him completely>

<That is good I am relieved, I will do all that I can for both Ric and
David. I see things in a much different light now Charles. I see how Ric
and David can be used to heal each other. I will explain it to you as we
talk>

<Yes. But for now I think the people in Medical need your help>
