Parker had been out of the country for some time, ever since Rose had gotten a new body. He spent his time traveling and I guess, training himself. But he had gotten a call from Professor Xavier, asking him to come back, for Rose's sake. Parker was hesitant to come back, since he felt that Rose hated him. But when Xavier mentioned that Rose may die, all his doubts had fled. Parker had immediately boarded the next plane for the US and returned to the school.
When he arrived at the school, Parker searched for Rose's mind and found it to be a completely chaotic mess.
"Rose...!" He continued to search her mind for the cause of her insanity. "Nanobots..." He then found another familiar mind. "Of course Ian's there. But..." He collapsed?! Parker immediately took off running down the hall towards the infirmary.
Breathing heavily, Parker eventually found both Ian and Rose on the floor. He then knelt on the floor by Rose, picking her up. He had forgotten the feeling of Rose's mind and how familiar it was. Memories flashed of training sessions together, talking to each other and fighting along side each other. Rose was his best friend. He had forgotten what it was like to have friends, when he was traveling alone.
"Rose..." Parker continued to look through her mind, seeing what she had gone through. A future Cain? Shadow...was dead? He had missed a lot while traveling. And he could feel the nanobots working inside her, her mind trying to resist the change. Apparently both Apocalypse and Magneto had tried almost everything....why were they helping her? But...he realized that Rose didn't know how to get rid of the nanobots.
"Maybe Ian does..." While still holding Rose, Parker searched Ian's mind. Apparently, the information was on a nearby computer! He stood up with Rose in his arms and gently laid her back in a bed in the infirmary, hoping she wouldn't wake up and use her power.
"Ian!! Wake up! I can't understand this information!" Parker shook Ian, trying to bring him back to consciousness, while trying to wake him up by prodding his mind. "I need you to explain it!! We need to help Rose! Wake UP!!!!"

Ethan was in his office as he has fallen asleep. He was working all night for stuff that has happened and now he heard commotion in the Infirmary. He didn't know what the hell was happening, but he was going to find that soon out, since they woke him up. He was slighty sleepy still, and like two hours of sleep caught him as he grabbed his cane.
He made himself awake as he opened the door of his office, then closing it as he opened the infirmary. "What the heck is going on here, why did no one even called for me."He said as he looked to a boy on the ground. A girl in bed and some kid standing there.
"I am the new doctor here, Ethan Winterbane, can someone tell me what is happening around here because I am not understanding anything of what is going on."He said. He walked to the boy, helping him on a bed and putting a monitor on him. Everything was alright he could see, he was just knocked out. He then looked to the Boy. "Young Boy, since you are the only one "alive" here, can you tell me everything what you know."He said as he looked at the girl, seeing something might be with her.

It felt like hours when Ian began to feel someone prodding into his mind. The last time he felt this way was when Sky entered his mind, but this one was more...friendly and familiar. Parker? Sure enough he began to hear his friend's voice in his mind and not too long after in his ear, first being shaken then lifted onto a bed. He groaned once his head touched the pillow.
"Did someone get the license number of that truck?"
He sat up, absently removing the monitors and other objects from him before looking around. He noticed there was a new guy in the room with him, Parker and Rose. He listened as the man asked Parker what was going on, and knowing Parker was pretty new to this whole thing himself, Ian decided to explain.
"Look, Doc, all I can tell you right now is that Rose is dieing and the only way to save her is what's on the main computer." He hopped down from the bed and winced as he felt like a weight was dropped onto his head. He rubbed his temples and looked to Parker with a small smile, "Nothing like getting wacked by a Nightshade to get your senses jarred. Can you help me get to the computer?"

Parker saw Ian open his eyes and he smiled a little. "Long time, no see. But we need to hurry and help Rose."
When Ian explained the current situation and how to help Rose, Parker nodded. "Yeah, no problem." He quickly took Ian's arm and threw it over his shoulder in order to support his weight. Carefully, but quickly, Parker started trotting off toward the computer room nearby, with Ian at his side.
"So...future Cain? And nanobots? Where on earth did they come from?" Parker had been so out of the loop with the world that he had no idea what was going on. He got some idea from Rose's and Ian's minds, but he didn't have time to look deep into it. Parker was only concerned about making himself better during his travels and didn't pay attention to the havoc that was going on in the world. He didn't even know that his own sister was killed by Cain. When he thought of Shadow...a sting of remorse pierced his heart. And that surprised him, considering that he hated Shadow most of his life. But...he remembered a time when she was actually decent.
Parker and Ian soon reached the computer that Ian mentioned. Parker carefully sat him down in a nearby chair and reached the computer. "All right. Tell me what to do. I'm pretty good at computers."

"Well, the only answer I can give you about the bots and future Cain is...the future."
That's pretty much all he could come up with at the moment. He felt bad for the two of them leaving the new Doc in the dark and the dirt compaired to what was going on, but it was a matter of life and death. Mainly Rose's life and death. It seemed like hours before they finally reached the computer and Parker sat him down in the chair. When he saw the the screen had produced the results he needed, he forgot all about the pain in his head.
"Well, it says here that the only way to stop the nanobite infection in a person is to take a sample of their blood and put it into some sort of..."Bot defusor?"
He clicked on a picture that was made into a link at the bottom of the page. What came up looked like a small tranquilizer gun with a lazer site ontop. Ian looked it over, and even though it didn't make sense to Parker, somehow it made perfect sense to him. It was as if this file was made so only Ian could be able to read it. But why?
"Well, we got the means, I'm just not sure how we're going to make it. Any ideas?"

Parker looked over the screen, not really making sense of what he was seeing. He could steadily feel Rose's mind slipping more and more and it made him anxious.
When Ian asked for ideas, Parker didn't really have any. He wasn't an expert in constructing weapons or medical equipment...
"Whatever this is, we can't do this by ourselves. Maybe we should find someone who knows about the future? But we don't have the luxury of time. The more time we use, the more unstable Rose becomes. Maybe we could find a way to slow it down. Find a technopath and delay the nanobots until we figure out this Bot defusor. Or...just find someone who's good with machinery." Parker was just throwing out suggestions, to see what Ian would think.
Rose was in danger and that made Parker think about Sky. Did she know? That Rose was slowly going insane? Why wasn't she here? He was confused by the fact that Sky wasn't here, screaming at people to make her sister better. Did she have better things to do than be here for Rose? Or...maybe Sky didn't know. Parker looked down, for once, not really knowing what to do for Rose.

"Magneto's already doing his best to keep those little bots at bay, but I don't know how we would be able to make something like that with the little technology we have here."
He sighed, wracking his brain for ideas that just didn't seem to come. He could tell it was hitting parker harder than him. He placed a hand on his friends shoulder, giving him a small smile. He had to be strong for both Parker and Rose, otherwise what good would it do any of them. He turned back towards the screen and noticed a blueprint that could be printed. Deciding it was better than nothing, he printed the schematics. The blueprints read like stereo instructions, Ian couldn't make out most of it.
"We're so close and I can't read a single thing on this sheet. It's almost..." his eyes widened, "Alien."
Why didn't I think of this before? He thought to himself, jumping from the chair so fast it fell backwards onto the floor. He folded the peice of paper in his hand and placed it into his pocket, looking at Parker with a proud smile. If it was any other situation he would've thought the idea crazy, but this wasn't just any other situation.
"Parker, I'm going to pay the Brotherhood a visit. If anybody can put this thing together, I'm sure Apocalypse can."
