Maggott: Powers that eat him alive
Japheth was a kid living in South Africa, away from much of the war that swept his nation. His mutant powers were beginning to surface and he stopped eating. His parent took him to the hospital and the doctor only diagnosed him with stomach cancer. He knew that he didn't want his parents to have to continue to pay the doctor bills so he ran away. His brother, not to his knowledge, was in the car that he ran away in. Stranded out in the desert and waiting to die the brothers noticed an angel floating down from the sky. An angel in devil's clothes, Japheth put it. Magneto had noticed that they were there and tried to help them. Magnus also somehow noticed that the boy was a mutant and in great pain. With that knowledge he decided to help him. After a magnetic power check these two small, slug like creatures, popped out of Japheth's stomach and sealed the hole behind them. It was found that they are his digestive system taken form. Once they returned to their town with magneto they found that the war had made it's way into their home. One of his brothers had been killed in the crossfire and his father had gone into the town to get revenge. After Japheth asked for Magneto's help he killed all of the men that had ravaged the town.
