Christina, Ororo, and Bobby remained in the hospital wing as Keiy recovered. Bobby lied down on the cot he was on while Christina sat in the chair next to Keiy's bed. Storm was observing the monitors.
Storm: His body seems to be responding well to the blood transfusion. It will probably be within the next hour or so that he will wake up.
Christina nodded her head as she looked at Keiy. She saw his eyes move shiftly underneath his eyelids.
Christina: He's having a nightmare.
Storm: What makes you say that?
Christina: His eyes are moving while he's sleeping, and he's tensed. See his fists clenched?
Storm: Hmm, yes. Well, maybe he may wake up sooner.

(Count was glad to hear this reply from Marcus. He turned to the pilot, who was in the room waiting for further orders from Count. He extended his hand toward the pilot and gave him the note with the coordinates.)
Count: Take us to the location written on the note.
Pilot: Yes, Count.
(The pilot bowed to Count, before turning around and heading back to the cockpit. Count took his usual seat and he put on his seat belt. While Psychonaut sat in between Emily and Talia, so he could check on them throughout the flight.)

Marcus shifted to his human form. He took a seat behind all the rest to keep to his thoughts.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Keiy's dreams were slipping out of focus. He could feel himself coming to. His eyes fluttered, and then opened. He stared straight ahead. Keiy's emotion were too much for him. He broke down and started to cry. The tears just came to him, pouring freely off his cheeks.

(The pilots began starting plane's engines. The plane moved down the runway, before taking off to the east. Count's private plane would take them to Germany in about an hour and a half. He crossed his arms and began to relax. Psychonaut looked at Talia, she was still out cold. He then gazed at Emily. The guilt was starting to eat away at him. Every second that passed by was a moment closer to making Count's dark mind control irreversible. He placed his hands above her head and was about to help her mentally, when she stirred loudly. He quickly removed his hands and Emily woke up. Count removed his seat belt and walked over to Emily's seat. He grabbed her shoulders and had her sit straight. He looked into her eyes, they were closed, but slowly opening.)
Count: Are you all right?

She open her almost black brown eyes to find him invading her bubble, his colors matched him perfect. he was warm yet cool, "I..." she blinked several times, "Yes. I am." she said frimly, "... why are you in my head..." she felt her ears pop.

Count: Well, I'm trying to take over your mind my dear. You seem to be the type of mutant that would be perfect in my cause and I want you to to be a part of it. Are you under my control right now.
(He removed his hands off her shoulder and waited for her to respond.)

"Our ideals are the same..." she fought to keep what controle she still had, "It isn't necessa- ry... please stop..." her eyes found his and she shivered as she focused on a mental picture of her cat, "The others don't understand... " Count's mind entered deeper into her's, "I can't stand humans... even having come from one... It makes me want to wretch!" Emily closed her eyes and tried even harder to make him stop.

Count: I completely agree with you. Humans are an abomination. They control everything! We need to take this world that rightfully belongs to us. Its our destiny.
(Count just continued to enter her mind. She was half way under his control, it would only take a little longer for her to become one of his agents.)
Count: The harder you try to fight the darkness the more it will inflect pain into your mind and body. Don't fight it, welcome it, just give into it, just give into me.

"No!" Her hands came up to her ears and she fell forward onto his shoulder, he was right. He already got this far, she couldn't fight it much longer, "I want to choose!" she half shouted as tears came to her eyes with her effort of defiance, ".... no...." she whispered as she felt herself slip into his controle.

(He smiled to himself as he felt that the last remnants of her freewill had been covered in his darkness. Psychonaut turned away, feeling horrible that he had failed to do anything to stop the darkness. He moved closer so he could whisper something in her ear.)
Count: Welcome to the Sovereigns.

Marcus watched what was happening to the blond in silence. His stomach churned as he remembered that something similar had happened to one his old friends. He wanted to shout "This is wrong!" But he knew that he couldn't.<You have been killing mutants and humans alike. And you choose NOW of all times to grow a conscience?!? It's the human's fault that you are like this. Its their fault that you couldn't die in peace... Or even at all for that matter!> "Not to interrupt your mind enslaving thing... But what exactly is our next target? Or are we saposta just run ram-pied across Germany?"Marcus said in dry humor.

Emily slumped against him for a moment, then she sat up and smiled at Count, "Thank you." she crossed her long legs and sat back now content with her current situation.

(Count walked over to his original seat and sat down. When he heard the comment about raiding Germany, he smirked to himself and thought, "Not a bad idea." He didn't looked at Marcus, but he he still spoke to him directly.)
Count: My daughter Winterfire was on a mission with a man called Arnold Sorge. Winterfire took a small team of agents to Germany for this mission, that I am still not fully aware of. I just got a message from one of the agents. It stated in this note that the mission was a success, but that there is some trouble with some Loyalists. To tell you the truth, I have no idea what this mission was about. So I don't know what we will be facing. When we arrive, I'll know instantly if there is to be trouble.

Marcus smirked and said,"Fair enough. " He leaned back and tried to get comfortable for the long ride to Germany. <Man... I really hate planes> He thought yet again.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
When Keiy's tears finally ceased, he struggled to get up but found that he couldn't move. "Let go... " He said in a very low tone edged with anger. He couldn't see who was holding him down, and quite frankly he didn't care.

Christina and the two X-men leaders noticed that Keiy had woken up and started to cry. Christina stood up and faced him so he could see her better. He tried to sit up, but Storm rested a hand on his arm to stop him from moving too fast.
Christina: Hey. It's okay. You're safe now.
Storm: Are you in any pain, child?
