    Summary

    Fear. Love. Hope.

    These are things that happen to other people. For Aiden, all life is, is a careful balance of calculation, pain, and a power he cannot explain.

    It is a balance he has learned to keep all his life but when the X-Men take him in, that balance begins to crumble.

    Their battles draw him into choices that reach far beyond his own survival or goals, and their lives offer questions no amount of calculation can settle.

    Yet through uncertain futures and their hard-won victories, one question continues to follow them: how much of yourself can you give before there is too little left to save?
