Kael, had heard about the school, and he was looking for a new line of work. Kael had been the Xcutioner for so long, and it was time for a change. He was at the ripe age of fifty some, fifty-three? Not so sure anymore, he kept the thought in his mind as he arrived at the mansion. Of course, it was guarded and he asked to meet the professor. Under what circumstances they asked?
"I'm looking for a job, I'm getting old, and I need some place to settle down..."
He asked, and with those words he was let in. In a more of a work outfit. Black slacks, black shoes, a white shirt, with a black over shirt, and a wide brimmed hat. Walking into the mansion there was a hustle and bustle of other students going to and fro. A smile lighting his face as he some of them a nod and a brisk nod of his hat. When he finally made it tot he professors door be removed his hat. Knocking on it briskly to see if he could be let in.

It was Charles first day back behind the desk it felt odd to be in the chair again. He looked down at it. How he had been so existed that he had been able to walk again and now he was in this thing again. God most of had some sobering plans for him. It had been a wake up call. It proved his thought that he was not getting any younger. His choices to start training the next generation of x men and starting to find some one to take over when he had gone felt more important than it had be fore.
Rouge and Ororo were his best choices at the moment. he had been touched that in his time of need his x-men had drooped what they were doing to be at his side. It was touching that he commanded that level of loyalty. he was snapped out of his musing as he heard the door knock. "come in?" he was not expecting any one at the moment.

The minute Xavier told him to come in he opened the door. Walking across the room he stood before Xavier, tipping his hat then taking it off. Holding it beside him as he started to speak.
"Hello Xavier, my name is Kael Drake... And I'd like to offer my services to your school.""
He said first and foremost, before he finally sat himself down.
"I got a very particular set of skills, skills I believe would benefit the students here at your school."
Kael hadn't told him yet what his powers were, but he almost assumed that he already knew. He had only heard of Xavier through rumors and he didn't know what to assume and what to was true. It was hard telling if he would even get considered to be hired, but he figured that Xavier might would at least give him a chance.

"Please sit down MR Drake." he gestured to the chair in front of him and then moved him self to a draw and pulled out a form. "tell me what these skills are." it was clear that the secrete of teh school was fading in time but then again so many mutants in one place it was hard to hide that. HE was just lucky that he had kept it this long. The man looked as old as he did. he wheeled him self in front of the desk and picked up a pen.
Charles did not sense any deception from the man,. " are you aware that this school has well a special kind of student?" he had to be careful what he said. Just encase this man was a spy or was not aware of this being a mutant school.

Kael looked down at the form and started to fill out what was exactly needed of him. When it came to a residence, a place where he lived he made sure to put down none. The only places he lived were in hotels, motels, or on the rare occasion on the street. Looking up from the form while Xavier spoke he nodded his head as he pushed the form forward.
"I'm aware of the students at the school. You could say, I have a talent for picking up on special people..."
Yes, he was being just as general as Xavier, knowing full well that Xavier was picking his words very carefully. So, Kael decided to also pick his words very carefully, knowing full well that Xavier would know what he meant. His ability sensing, he could pick up on the people around him with it on. Oddly enough it only reached so far, it had a range, but it had been useful for years for what he used it for, as his time as the Xcutioner.
"I have a desire to help your students. I am fluent in four kinds of arts Bojutsu, Karate, Muay Thai, and even wrestling. I'd like to find myself as a teacher here, or perhaps even a councilor. I've been protecting people religiously for thirty or so years, and I've decided I'm getting to old for the crime fighting business."
Okay, maybe he wasn't going to be so general, why not just spill the beans and get it over with? Stop beating the conversation around the bush and just let it all out.

"i do not need any one to teach the students how to fight but tell me how would you benefit the school as a councilor?" he ran his hand over his chin. " You were a crime fighter? Please do elaborate on it some more." he looked at the man trying to think of any crime fighters he knew. Probably one of the more smart one that kept hidden in the shadows. "you have to remember this is a school and i can not have people teaching or helping who do not have the required skills needed."
((sorry its short))

"I've been around for fifty-three years Xavier, I've traveled the world and believe I could console some of your students. I deeply believe in meditating and it has helped me ever since I was a a young adult. I've enhanced my own powers by finding peace within myself...."
He stopped for a minute, letting out a cough then continuing.
"I'm not even sure if I could be a councilor at your school. Honestly its where ever you think I'd fit in best at. I'd just like to help in anyway I can. I feel it'd be a shame if I couldn't benefit your institution in some way."
He coughed again, damn, he was getting old. If he didn't get a job here could he really keep being a crime fighter? Could he stand to keep being the Xcutioner in New York and in other places around the world. Also, he felt that it'd be bad if he told him about his crime fighting career and he almost hoped he hadn't heard of him so, he'd use only one of his nicknames.
"I feel I can trust you with the identity I've held for thirty or so years. They called me X, and I've put many people in jail. Although I'd like to say how ever unfortunate I've had to kill some that tried to elude me..."
He trailed off again, knowing truly he was telling a lot. Kael never regretted killing anyone, he gave them a chance, and they chose there own destiny.
"You'd be surprised how many mutants, find themselves lost without there powers. I've negated many, and they just looked at me like I'd already killed them. Needless to say, many of them had committed crimes that would of earned them the death sentence anyways."
It was true, times were tough, and he was sure it was a lot easier to kill a mutant than to hold them some where, and sometimes it was near impossible to hold a mutant. So, it would just be easier to dispose of them then try to console them.
"I'd honestly, not like you to judge me on my career. I'd like for you to take my powers in hand and think how I could help your students..."
He left off again, knowing he was dragging on. Letting him just ponder over all that was said, he sat there holding good eye contact with Xavier and occasionally glancing off to the side to look at other things that were located within the room.

"we all done things in our past we are not happy about. I will judge any one on there past only there actions at the moment. I will inform from what you have said that you have the ability to remove peoples powers. Some of the students powers are keeping them alive. We have two people in the school who would die a painful death if they were removed. There are other i do not know what would happen if there powers would be taken away.
If you come to work here you must leave your past behind i do not want people coming to my door looking for revenge.. I will not granite you a job but i can gibe you a trail. You will not be aloud in the more sensitive areas of the school. There is some students i feel could use some counseling. "

"I would not purposely take away anyone's power. I cannot permanently remove anyone's power only if there within a certain distance from me. I can also augment mutants powers."
He wanted to add that in, because he wanted Xavier to know all about his powers.
"I also believe in something called Chi, which I have a firm belief gives us our power. Chi, runs through all of us, and I can see that. By using my Chi I can augment myself personally, making myself, stronger, faster, or even quicker in reflex's.."
He also had to add in because he wanted it all to be out on the table, and he didn't want to hide anything from Xavier.
"Now, no one knows who I am, and I am ready to leave my past behind. I am ready to start when ever you see it fit. I got everything that I've owned on me, in a duffel bag outside the door."
He trailed off again, knowing it was a few shirts, pants, boxers, those kinds of things, that and his extendable staff right along with his Xcutioner costume. Also it was good to see that Xavier had never heard of the persona, so he hoped he was safe for now. He was afraid if he would of told him all the pain and suffering he'd dealt people that he'd be long and gone from the institution that or possible he might of even killed him. There was no telling what this man could of done since he barely knew him and only heard about him through rumor.

"well if your willing to accept the trail we can have you settled in the staff quarters with in the hour. Here we welcome any one who is willing to follow the rules of this institution as long as you keep to the code of conduct we will have no reason not to let you stay. so many people are here for second chances or even thirds." he started to load up the computer.
"we have some students who have problems ether threw the way there power manifested, or the way there were raised. Do you think you can help with them. I have specialist who are dealing with power development and possibly one of the best self defense teach i can get. Your job will be to work with the head of the students and help those with problems over come them."

"Good... good..."
He said first and foremost that he could actually be settled into a room. The staff quarters as Xavier had listed it, and Kael was finally looking forward to settling into a home. Hopefully he hoped he could stand to live here and that he was making the right decision, he supposed only time would tell. still listening to him he asked if he could deal with the head of the students, with a brief nod he believed he could do just that.
"Yes, I do believe I can work with the students in this way. I have to say thank you Xavier, for this opportunity before I get settled in..."
Standing up he held out his hand to professor Xavier. Looking for a brief hand shake before someone would take him away, maybe it would be even Xavier himself who led him to his room.

Xavier smiled and took the mans hand for a second. he could tell even with out his powers that he was happy to be here. "most of our messages are sent threw mental communication so i do hope you will not have a problem with that. If you would like while your room is being prepared we can talk about some of the students that may need your help. We are pressed quiet thin at the moment and we are all on edge as we fear the school may be attacked soon. I wish i could give you an adjustment period but at the moment such a thing is not possible."

Kael listened to him, and nodded in agreement that it would be alright. Than again he might think himself crazy one day when he would wake up to this communication or maybe even dose off and hear the voice in his head. Oh well, guess this was something new and he was just going to have to get used to it. Then with it all he ended up sitting right back down
"Will I meet this students I presume possibly right after this meeting? One at a time? Do you have folders of information that I can read at, as well as hear it from you?"
He asked, since he figured he was jumping right into this job quite literally for a matter of fact and he knew he was in for it now. Going to be a school councilor for mutants, hopefully none of them would kill him or try to bite his head off.. Lucky him he could always negate there powers if he felt threatened at all.

"one at a time would be better. I will have the files sent to your room. There is four i would like you to work with the first is Faith she has Anger issues due to her past. The next is a woman Max She is a feral mutant who never lived with humanity she needs help adjusting to living with the school and in society. The third is a young woman called Becky she has a social problem on the other end of the spectrum. The final student is one called Max he is a manic depressive with thoughts of killing him self. Teh only problem is i belive he is truly immortal in a way we have never seen before."
Xavier moved from behind the desk. "that is your room ready now shall we head up towards it. I Am afraid we will have to take the life. My self and the stairs dont seam to get on well." he headed towards the door. HE had wanted to give the man an idea of what he would be coming up agents.

Kael merely nodded his head in agreement as he said the files would be sent to his room. As he listened to Xavier explain to him who was who and what they had wrong with them. Faith, Max, Becky, and another student called Max. It would be easily to tell the two apart since one was a girl and the other a guy. After he explained the situation at hand he moved out from behind his desk, and he explained they would have to take the lift because he couldn't exactly head up the stairs. of course that was completely understandable since he was in a wheel chair.
They headed toward the door as Xavier was leading him to his room, there was a lot in store for him here he could tell.
"Let me guess Xavier. Is that just the tip of the ice berg?"
He gave a brief laugh, thinking that it was a good possibility that he was just telling him an easier version of a much bigger story so he didn't scare him off right away.
