Those details I mentioned...

Long night.

Manuel de la Rocha: Physically, he's relatively fine. He's been drugged - blood tests show traces of Thorazine, which I'm guessing was used to counteract his powers. Some signs of neurological burnout, similar to what we've seen in Amanda when she's over-powered; nose bleeds, sensitivity to light, etc. Headaches, probably, when he's conscious. He'll probably be asleep a while longer, but I'm not sure how long. Mentally... from what Nathan was able to tell me, his mind's been essentially stripped of most strong emotions, and the memories associated with them. He remembers his first name only, and not a lot else. Just how much we'll have to determined when he wakes up. His power's also been burned out - possibly a temporary thing, like Shiro, but it's difficult to tell at this stage.

Amanda Sefton: Someone - or multiple someones - took a lot of care and time to basically beat the crap out of her. Nothing broken, although her ribs will probably be a bit tender for a few days, multiple contusions and bruises, some abrasions. No sign of anything beyond the physical assault - my guess is the culprit/s didn't want to risk leaving behind any physical evidence. There's traces of Rohypnol in her system; it's unlikely she'll remember a lot of what actually happened. A few weird readouts from the neurological workup I did, which I'm guessing are magic-related - someone ought to contact that tutor of hers. She'll be out for a while longer: Scott, when she's awake, I'll let you know, since I'm guessing any kind of debriefing is going to have to come from her, since Manuel is definitely not remembering anything.

From what Angelo told me about what he saw, it was Manuel that teleported them back, through some kind of magical means. Someone got an explanation for that?

All right...

I spoke to Amanda this morning and got what details she was able to give me. It's not much, given what she was drugged with, but in this case I don't think the fine details are as significant as the consequences.

She and Manuel attended a function at the Hellfire Club last night. While they were there, Selene and Alphonso de la Rocha apparently decided to... alter Manuel, somehow. This seems to have involved rewriting his mind, as Madelyn said in her last post. Charles will be working with him, of course, and we'll keep the staff updated on his condition. Amanda wasn't clear on what part she had in their plan; she recalls speaking to Alphonso and believes that he was the one who drugged her. She doesn't recall being assaulted.

I'm going to have to wait until Dr. Strange has weighed in on exactly what happened, I think, before we have a clear idea of how Amanda got the two of them out of there and whether there will be any consequences. Something similar to what happened during the attack at Columbia seems to have taken place, the body-jumping for lack of a better word - their link at work again - and she managed to drain enough power from Selene to teleport them out of there and back here.

That's all I've got for now. Obviously we're going to be looking into this further, to see if we can figure out why Selene and de la Rocha did this and what to expect now.

The one thing I'd ask is that you all exercise discretion with the students. I have no intention of announcing any of this on the journals. If they ask, Manuel and Amanda were in an accident and are being seen to. Once Manuel's condition is a little more stable we'll obviously have to say something further, but the constant stream of 'So and so have managed to mangle themselves in such and such a way' is getting increasingly unproductive, as far as I'm concerned.

Going Out

I'm just off out for a quick word with Emma. Call me if their condition changes.
