After teleporting Thorn and (the cur) Demon to the safety of the infirmary and getting them settled, Nightcrawler returned to the Professor's side. His eyes took in Torrent making his way back to the mansion, and Shard walking in the opposite direction of the Native. His eyes moved to the Professor, giving him a questioning look. What had he said to the boys to make them react that way? He understood Xavier's frustration, but from what he had heard through the grapevine, this Demon character was extremely bad news. In all the time he'd known Shard, Kurt knew he wasn't an angry individual who flew off the handle and attacked people without reason. And Troy had only been defending Will, using a bit of an unorthodox method for sure, but still protecting his friend. He didn't believe that beating someone to a pulp was the answer for dealing with people who hurt you or the people you loved, but he did think the boys were somewhat justified in what they had done. He would speak with Will later, if the boy wanted to talk.
"I'm going to help Hellcat." Kurt said abruptly, taking in the sight of the beaten and bloody catlike girl a few yards away. Her eyes were glued to the sight of Brian's upheaval, while she apparently fought the pain of her injuries to keep standing. One of the few remaining (though injured) Darkseekers made it's way towards her, albeit slowly, unnoticed by the girl. Nightcrawler unsheathed a sabre, bamfed to her side, and took out the creature all in a matter of seconds. He put away his weapon, and put an arm around the girl (who was now his height) to steady her. "Liebling, vhere is your uniform?" he asked, making sure to keep his tone more concerned than chiding. He didn't want to upset her more than she already was. He glanced over at the situation she had been taking in. Lorna and Piotr had it under control and there was no need for Edana to get wrapped up in more drama at the moment, especially when she was hurt. And given the way Brian was acting, it was possible she could sustain worse injury if she did try to intervene. "Come. Let's go inside." he said gently, urging her to do as he suggested.
When she heard Brian's scream through her ear piece, Hellcat had been paralyzed with fear. Had he been hurt? She'd tried to make her way over to him, but the Darkseekers had sapped most of her strength and she didn't have a healing factor like some of the others to help her in the injury department. Her adrenalin rush was all but spent. She'd ended up falling on her face then picking herself back up determinedly and preparing to start towards Britannic and the others once more. Hellcat flinched when Nightcrawler appeared beside her and took down the Darkseeker that she'd only acknowledged when Kurt took it down. She was shaking violently when he put his arm around her and she sagged into him, clutching onto his arm for more support.
"No," she began, taking in a tired breath, her voice broke, "I need to be with him."
Kurt sighed deeply. If cats could shed tears, this one would be doing so now. "Edana," he said softly, looking the girl in the eyes. "Listen to me. Zhere's nothing you can do for him right now. I vill not allow you to put yourself at risk for more harm. Verstanden?" he stated the last bit in a tone that was not to be quarreled with.
Hellcat just nodded in response, resting her head against the blue man's shoulder. She wanted so badly to shift, but wouldn't dare out here in the open. "Can we walk in?" she pleaded weakly. Teleporting with Nightcrawler always made her want to throw up, and she feared she would if they did so at this moment.
Nightcrawler let out a small chuckle at Edana's words. "Yes, we can walk." He told the girl while getting a better grip around the her waist to support her as they began their journey to the mansion's front doors.
Nightcrawler / Kurt Hellcat / Edana Verstanden? (Understood?)
