"Right of course. You being a Feral, and all." He grabbed a steak from the fridge and began to tenderize it.
"Well done, medium rare?" He asked her as he beat it. |

"Ah." He stopped tenderizing and looked at her in the eye.
"You're stronger than most girls your age, you run faster - your temper is easier to trigger, your fight or flight instinct higher - along with your heightened sense of smell, eyesight and intuition. When your father brought you to me you were very sick." He put the steak under the grill having lightly seasoned it with pepper.
He seemed reluctant to continue. |

Adam smiled
"You wouldn't. You were very small, just a little baby. Had one hell of a pair of lungs on you though." He remembered ruefully. Shalimar had woken the staff at the hospital MANY times during the night and seemed to only settle when Adam was called in. |

| Shalimar blushed. "Why am i like this?" she asked looking at her hands dispisingly. |

"Like what?" He frowned coming over to her.
"Theres nothing WRONG with you Shalimar. You're just different that all - better in some ways. It was a side effect of your treatment, one which I was responsible for." He sighed and looked pained. |

"You ARE NOT!" Roared Adam with such intensity that belied his quiet demeanor.
He calmed himself down.
"You arent. You're a New Mutant - a Feral. You have abilities other people don't have. Gifts - that are a part of you. You just need to learn about them and where they play a part in your life. Thats all. Who told you that you were a freak?" He asked her. |

| "Gifts? More like curse! You live in this cave and say that! Everyone else sees me as a freak! These "gifts" ruinded my life!" she yelled. |

"Im sorry you feel that way. " Said Adam, visibly upset.
"I'll arrange for your transport tomorrow morning. Finish the steak would you... I've lost my apetite." And he withdrew into the lab. |

| Shalimar sunk to the floor crying. The discussion had brought up painfull memories, and even more painfull feelings. Her loneliness struck her like a powerfull blow. |

Adam returned to find the steak burnt, and Shalimar crying.
He knelt beside her, cursing himself and when she had cried herself to sleep, carried her to the room he'd picked out for her.
Staying close in case of nightmares, he swiftly fell asleep in the chair himself. |

Loneliness. Devastating. Desperation. Shalimar blinked her eyes opened, momentarily blinded by the bright white light. he recognized her surroundings immediately. Etched into her mind was every corner of the room, every line, every contour. The door opened and four butch men entered the room. She was only 10 but it took four to control her. She knew what was coming. She prepared to defend herself.
In the darkness of Sanctuary Shalimar began twisting in her bed. |

Adam woke to cries and shouts of pain and rage and fear.
Startled he all but fell out of his chair, before registering the source of the trouble.
Shalimar was dreaming. Or rather having nightmares.
Gently he approached, not wanting to scare her or wake her up.
"Shalimar...shhhh, s'okay..." He reached the bed and tentatively took her hand. |
