That was the first time Six had heard Rex use the right spanish term. Please. Damnmit. He sighed before turning back to Rex. "You cannot tell anyone. Understand. Not even Holiday and especially not Aly." he said his voice as stoic as ever but it was more serious.

Rex nodded. "You have my word, Six." He wasn't going to tell them anyway. He didn't feel like explaining his situation or anybody elses. It wasn't his place to tell them anyway.

Six sighed before taking a seat next to Rex. "When we were in college, I suppose you could say Van Kleiss and I sort of got along. He understood what i wanted and why mutants should have rights. Even when others didn't, we never said more than a few exchanges, but he was still a great powerful person. Besides Holiday and Charles, i had a group of friends, one of them. A girl, who sort of fell for me. I didn't have feeeling for her in that way, but it wasn't until the incident happened that i realized not all people are alike and wnat the same things."
"She was attacked a few years late, by something, or someone. No one knows, many of my friends blamed it on the mutants. However, i knew better. Like you, i went to Van Kleiss for help, asking for any way he could bring her back. He agreed, but his mind and heart had been darkened. So, he said he could try and bring her back, if he could get a "taste" of my powers." Six rubbed his neck, he had never talked this much let alone told this to anyone.
"Unfortunately, that little taste ended up costing me all of my powers, and in the end i still couldn't bring her back. He said he didn''t have the right magic and there was no mutant that could bring her back. I was angry of course and tried to attack him for what he had done. I never got the chance. I doubt my powers will ever return but i think they are starting to." he rolled up his sleeve and showed Rex the strange line of bruises on his arm that looked almost like fire swirling around it.
"If he had wanted more than a taste Rex, you would have either had this to deal with or be dead." Six sighed. "In truth i almost wish i had been killed that day. I could have at least stopped a mistake from ever happening."

Rex looked at Six for a while stairing at him. It was still a lot to absorb. "But if you were killed. If you did take the punch. Don't you think your life means anything to that Holiday and Aly would have never been born. Thanks for telling me all that. I needed to hear it. I pay for my own mistakes. I don't let others pay for them for me. It was my decision. Not yours. I'm sorry about the girl, though."

"So am I Rex." he muttered. "So am I."

He looked at Six and did something the a little bit childish, but right then he felt not exactly like a teenager. He wrapped his arm around Six and hugged it for a few moments. Then he quickly let go realizing what he was doing. "Sorry." he said. Six was probably the only person he would ever consider a father figure.

Six was suprised by the teenager's action but didn't seem angry with the boy. "Rex, listen, if you ever need to talk to someone. I think you'll be surprised by the people who will listen." he replied, before ruffing the boy's hair. "and if you ever need help, well you know where to find me."

Rex smiled as he nodded and then just looked at Six.

"You should get some rest Rex." Six said giving the kid a small smile. "You need it, because you look like hell." he put a hand to rex's forehead. "I'll send Mami or someone in with dinner if you need it."

Six looked at Rex worried. "Rex, don't worry things will be fine. I promise."
