Guilt and shame washed over her and Jean reached out, grabbing her friend by the shoulders and looking deeply into her blue eyes. "It was me, Paige. I lost control or something took over, I don't know which, but it doesn't matter now. I was imprisoned in SHIELD for a good while and went through extensive training. I'm better than I was, but I only recently returned to the Professor's care. I'm not allowed to go anywhere without someone to keep an eye on me, in case, you know-" she cut herself off and released her friend, stepping back and looking over at the small group still visible to the red head.
"I'm sorry. I'll understand if you want to get as far away from me as you can. Everyone else at the mansion does. Fury hates me. Spider Woman will never forgive me and Kitty-Kitty never looked so disappointed in me. I hate myself for it", she whispered and her green eyes filled with tears before she swallowed them away again.
