Rex nodded and then remembered what Six told him to be cautious. "I am willing to listen. More than anything I want to learn about them, but what's the catch? I promised somebody to be cautious and I am keeping to that. What will I have to give for the information?"

Van Kleiss leaned his face on his hands. "Nothing special. We'll get to that when we're done with the story shall we?" he asked, he didn't give Rex a second chance to speak before going into what his parents did. The Nanite project. As he went on explaining this he paused. "It was an accident to how it happened but luckily you survived right? I have no idea about the other two though..." he smiled. "Your brother and sister's fates are not something i know of."
(ooc: didn't feel like explaining the nanite project)

(ooc: I wasn't expecting you to and it's okay.) Rex sat there for a while absorbing all this. A tear fell from his eye. It was so much information to absorb. "So my parents. They're truely dead and I'm some scientific fluke? Great." He felt miserable and yet he wanted to know. He had to know.

"I wouldn't say fluke, after all look at what you can do Rex. You've saved many people. It's a great gift. Not everyone is so lucky." Van Kleiss replied. "After all, look at what happened to several other people like that one girl named Breach. You ended up lucky."

Rex looked at Kleiss and gave a light smile. He was right. About the helping people, but Rex never saw mutants as an unlucky lot. He thought them as unique and each had a gift and purpose to the world. He didn't answer. He didn't need to answer.

"Now are there any other questions you want to know. I can assure you that i know more than people think." Van Kleiss replied. "Besides the matter of payment."

"Just two. How do you know so much about me and the proffesors at my school?" said Rex.

"We went to college together." Van Kleiss replied. "Or rather Six and Holiday were there with me. I really can't imagine the others there, if they were i didn't speak to them. I liked being on my own. It was just something that seemed natural." the man frowned at the first question. "I'm afraid that i worked with your parents on the project, i was there like you and was blessed with..unique powers."

Rex nodded. He understood now. "Gracious." he said. Now he was worried about the payment.

"As for payment. I am giving you two choices." Van Kleiss replied. "You can either bring me this breach girl, or you can allow me to get a taste of your powers."

Rex had to think. He wasn't cautious at all. The answer cam easily to him. He wouldn't risk another persons life for knowing of his own. "Get a taste of my powers."

Van Kleiss smirked. "Really? Well, i have to say Rex I'm impressed, not a lot of people would have made that choice. But i admire your heroic abilities. You really are your parents son." he replied grabbing Rex's shoulder before using his powers, to anyone but van kleissi t would be painful but he figured Rex could handle the intense pain that was about to come.

Rex felt the pain and yet he still withheld from screaming. He had to be brave for himself and to prove to himself that he can be strong even if some of his powers were being taken.

Van Kleiss pulled away from him, "You are a good boy Rex. this will do just nicely." he said smirking before turning to walk away. "Oh, but just to warn you. You may feel some side effects." With nothing left to say the man disappeared.

Rex stood up and slowly started to walk. He then fell to the floor for a couple moments he laid there and then he picked up an object that could withold his weight and used it as a crutch to walk out of the hut and back to the institute.
