Parker suddenly was pulled out of Rose's mind when Ian spoke. His eyes narrowed in sudden anger.
"I'm not leaving Rose, either. She's my cousin! She's my friend." He then turned to Rose. "I'm sorry for earlier...I just wanted to help you."
Parker then noticed things falling apart as Rose's power went more out of control. But he didn't want to leave Rose and Ian. Ian was his friend now and Rose...she was more than a friend. She was his confidant. He told her everything.

When Parker stated that he wasn’t leaving made all of Alexs fears wash away it was easyier to stand for something when some one else was standing right next to you for the same thing “And if you think im leaving you are really crazy we are a team if this place goes down with you and Rose it takes all of us down we are all friends hear and we would do anything for each other” Alex stood her ground she was angry that Ian thought they’d just runaway from this

Why weren't they leaving her alone? What was making all of them stay? Rose couldn't understand these ties that were keeping them from going. Something called 'friendship', something she couldn't remember... Yet they clung to it so tightly...
Slowly Rose looked up at last. Her eyes were almost pitch black, an affect from her power. They were as wild as her power was acting, but absolutely terrified. Ian was moving closer again, his words striking a nerve. "Why... can't you just leave...?" She was starting to sound frantic as she stared wide eyed at him through her dark 'armor'.
Suddenly she flinched around, closing her eyes and more and more memories started rushing through her head, as if a dam had been broken. Her hands clamped down harder on her head, stopping herself from crying out. To many things were happen at once! The dark matter started to react to her pain... Barriers, like the ones she had always used before, formed around the three, pushing them back, away from her. "Please... I don't want to hurt anyone else!" She felt like crying, all the memories that were coming back so quickly it felt like she was drowning... Many of them were of these three.

He continued to look at her as her powers began destroying more and more of the site. People were nearby were stopping to look, only to be frightened away by the blasts. Ian was nervous, but didn't move, even when Rose looked at him with her eyes. He could tell he was making her more frightened, so he backed up to the edge of the tube where she was. Was this the cause of her power? He could only guess as he looked at her.
"I'm not leaving because I promised to stand by you no matter what, and that's what I'm going to do, whether you remember me or not."
He looked around as a barrier, much like the one before, surrounded him and the others. He stood up as it began pushing them away, doing his best to push against it. He noticed Rose doing her best to try and stop the memories, he called out to her.
"Rose don't fight them. It'll only make things worse." he then looked to Parker, "Something's going on in her head, any way you can slow it down without her noticing?"

When rose power started pushing them away Alex did her best to stand her ground “Rose pleases don’t fight it we are only hear to help we won’t hurt” Alex looked around at what roses power was doing to the site they didn’t have much time if they where going to get her out. She turned to parker there was a look of panic in her eyes she feared for a moment that Rose wasn’t going to be coming back “Parker is there anything you can do”

Parker just watched as the site was being destroyed in front of them by Rose's power. There was something he had to do. Rose's memories were overwhelming her. But he was afraid he was only going to make it worse if he tampered with her head. There was one way to find out.
Parker turned to Ian and Alex. "I'll try, but be prepared if Rose fights back." He then fully entered Rose's mind and looked around. It was as if a dam of memories was flooding her mind, causing her to go out of control. Soon, he pushed against those memories, trying to hold them back, only letting a few go by, so that Rose could process a few at a time. He tried letting memories of Parker and Ian go by, letting Rose see what had happened between the three.
I'm only here to help you. Please don't get angry. Parker sent the mind message to Rose, hoping she wouldn't go more out of control.

Rose stopped moving, or really responding to anything the three did or said, she just kept pushing them further and further away. She could feel her old self starting to return to her... or what she thought was her old self. She felt concern for the three, why were they here?! They were going to get hurt! She had to protect them! At the same time though, everything was flooding her so quickly, it was making her feel more and more unstable. "Please... Ian.... Parker... Alex.... Please go before I hurt you..."
She was starting to sound more and more like her old self, they would see this quickly, but still, nothing was making sense to her. Until she felt something in her head... Parker? The memories weren't flooding her like they had been, as if being held back to give her time to absorb the information before more came. The part of her that she'd become during her time without memories was instantly fighting back, screaming about him being in her head. Her other self was begging him to keep doing what he was up to. I'm trying not to! that sane part of her screamed in her mind, hoping Parker would hear it.
The Nightshade part of her was acting out violently again, forcing Rose to rise to her feet, something that looked like a lance, or spear materialized in the air, made of the dark matter, pointed towards Ian. Suddenly it started to fly through the air, as if to impale him, when it suddenly stopped bare inches from him. It was shaking, as if caught between two forces, one wanting to kill the man, the other trying to stop it.
In Rose's mind, there was only one thing going on. An internal war with herself. Half telling her to kill those causing her this pain. The other half screaming that she was the one causing them pain. Something seemed to snap though, as if both sides molded together and came to one conclusion. They weren't causing this, she was. She was the threat here, the one that needed to be disposed of...
Before she could even stop the thought, her power acted on it. The lance that had been trying to impale Ian suddenly did a 180, streaking through the air like a blur. It didn't strike down who they were expecting though, it wasn't Ian for causing this mass of memories, or Parker for blocking them, or Alex for just being there. It tore right through Rose, her eyes going wide in horror and shock. All the dark matter vanished as Rose crumpled to the ground.
((Yup... It's happening in this thread. So there!))

(what is?)
"We're not leaving you Rose, not without you."
Ian looked to Rose, then smiled as she began to react to what Parker was doing. He looked at Parker, placing his hand on his friend and giving his shoulder a squeeze. He then looked around as more. It was working, Rose was coming back. It wasn't until she stood up and seemed to have lost control again. He turned towards her as a spear appeared in the air and headed straight towards him. He stared it down, almost daring it to come closer.
But as fast as he was, the entire world seemed to move slowly as a new horror came to him. The spear had turned around, and before he could do anything, went straight through Rose. He watched her form fall, the barrier and dark matter shattering as well. He was there in a second, catching her as she fell and laying her on his lap as he knelt.
"Rose, I'm here. Hang in there ok? You'll be alright." he tried to stay strong, but the tears were betraying him. He couldn't believe all that was happening, first his parents and now this. He touched Rose's face, staring at her dieing eyes and not letting go. The hole was great, and he placed his arm around her, holding her close.
"I'm not going to lose you, not again. Rose please...I'm sorry. I'm sorry...this is my fault."

Alex jumped when rose sent a spear towards Ian she was almost sure she was coming back as it stood there for a few moment in the air Alex had hope Rose wasn’t going to hurt them but what hope she had quickly disappeared when the spear truned around and shot towards Rose itself. She really just attacked her self what was she thinking of corse Ian was there before she chould even hit the ground and Alex was not far behind him. She keeled down next to Ian she felt bad for him but they had to act fast or they might lose her and she whould of hated to see Ians face if that really lost Rose. “Ian we have to get her to a doctor now how fast can you run to the school caring her we’ll catch up”

Parker was pulled into Rose's head, regardless of what he wanted. Rose's emotions were spiraling! She going downhill right now and he needed to do something about it! He noticed that his tampering was actually do some good! Rose was regaining herself, but at the same time....! Suddenly, a spear appeared and headed toward Ian.
"Rose! Don't!!" Parker ran forward, but suddenly stopped when the spear stopped inches from Ian's face. But his eyes widened in horror when he read Rose's mind. "NOOO!!!!" But it was too late. The spear immediately turned around and pierced Rose's body. "Rose!!!" Parker ran forward, but Ian was faster. The black matter disappeared around them. He ran up to Rose and Ian.
"Rose...please hold on!" Parker's eyes welled up with tears. She was dying...he could see it in her mind. It was becoming a barren wasteland. He never saw the mind of someone who was dying, like Sky. It scared him beyond belief. "Rose...please don't die...."

((Rose 'dying' of course!))
Rose hadn't meant to attack herself, her power acting purely on instinct. Destroy the threat. Only this time, the threat had been herself. At first, her body had felt like it was on fire, the pain excruciating but unable to make a sound. After the initial shock though, everything went numb. She felt someone catch her, carefully lowering to her ground, laying across the person's lap.
It was Ian. She might have cried when she realized how much pain she'd caused him, but the tears wouldn't come. She just stared up at his face, wanting to cry. "Ian...." Her voice sounded faint, distant. The pain in her voice wasn't from her self inflicted wound. No... She couldn't believe the things she'd done to him and the others.
Alex and Parker had reached them now, she could make them out of the corner of her eyes. All of them looked worried, Parker was even crying as well. She knew why... "I'm sorry..." Everything she'd done... All of it was her fault. She'd almost killed Ian...
Rose could feel herself slipping away. No... Even if they took her back to the school, they wouldn't be able to save her. She somehow knew... She didn't have long before she died... But right now? It didn't seem all that bad. Her friends were there...
Suddenly though, she wasn't worried about passing. There was something Parker had to tell the X-men. The things she'd learned when she hadn't remembered them. Parker... Please... Tell the Professor everything that happened. Sky and Cain... everything... She knew Parker was monitoring her thoughts as she started to fade.
"I'm sorry... I broke my promise..." Her fading attention was back to Ian as he held her close, as if to keep her with him. "I'm sorry... I hurt you..." Everything was starting to go dark. "I'm glad... you made me remember... Before..." She couldn't finish the sentence, words no longer coming to her. But they knew what she meant. Before she died, before she did any more damage. Before she became a 'villain'. Instead of crying, she smiled softly, her gaze slowly moving over all of them, before resettling on Ian one last time. There were so many things she wanted to say as the blanket of death started to encircle her. She just hoped Parker would tell Ian then. She wanted to thank Ian, for keeping his end of the promise to always protect her... Even from herself. And to keep fighting against Cain and Shadow. "Don't let them win..." Her last words, maybe not memorable, but they meant something to her. Don't let them win with her death.
Rose's eyes closed for the last time...

The commotion had caused most to run in fear, except for one person. Pitsha. She was curious to what was happening. She knew her Grandson was somewhat responsible for what might be happening, him and his Nightshade friends. What she didn't know though, was the one causing this destruction was a Nightshade... Until she felt a dying soul near her.
The dying girl was only 15 years old, so young that Pitsha felt a pang of guilt for the girl. To die at such a young age... Pitsha knew what that was like. It was a horrible thing to happen, to never see life to the fullest, to have a family of her own or find true love...
Normally, Pitsha was not one to interfere with the dying, but right now? Her sympathy got the best of her. How could she let such young girl die? And not to mention the girl was of pure heart, with the potential to help shape this world into something better. As she started to fade, Pitsha knew what she was going to do. Reaching into her bag, she pulled out a random object to house the soul while she found a new body, and waited.
She waited until the soul was at it's weakest, those last seconds, when most would express their last words. The girl only had four words to say, before finally everything was lost from her. Now came the tricky part, catching the soul at just the right moment, when those inside would be sure of her passing, but right before her soul was lost.
Luckily Pitsha had done this many times before, snatching up the freeing soul right before it dissolved into nothingness and carefully settling it in the object. Step one, complete. Pitsha turned, leaving quickly before the telepath was aware of her presence. She vanished into the night, to begin her search for a new body to house the girl's soul...

His cheeks were wet with tears as he held her, looking into the eyes he had gazed in many times before. He traced his fingers through her hair as he held her, trying to keep the smile he had shared with her many times before. When she apologized, all he could do was shake his head at her.
"No, Rose, it's ok...you...you didn't do anything wrong."
How could he have had so much for her? She had almost killed him, and he wanted revenge. But as he held her he couldn't help but kick himself on the inside. How could he have wanted revenge for someone he would've gladly give his life for without question. He wanted to cry then, hearing her words, but he had to be strong for her. He was losing her and he knew this, but he couldn't let her go, not yet.
"Rose, it's ok...ok? I forgive you, I always do...remember?" he smiled, that word having been used many times before, "I'm...I'm glad we could help you remember, but you're not going to die ok? You'll be just fine, we'll get Hazel and Beast, they'll help you."
He smiled, watching the light fade from her eyes. He knew what was coming, those last words she spoke hitting his heart like a hammer. Many said that everybody lives in their own world, but to Ian, Rose was his world, his univers. He touched her cheek gently as he watched her eyes close. He watched as Rose, the he had loved so much, his life and his world, faded. He called to her many times, hoping in vain she would hear him, but knowing she was gone. He held her tightly against him, the from her staining his shirt. He held her close and cried, more then he had when his parents died, more then when Faith was killed. It was the most he had cried in a long time, and would ever again. Don't let them win was her last words to him. He held her close and whispered...
"I promise...they won't win."
