Background:On the surface,Kevin James LaBire lived a great life of privilege, being the son of highly regarded Canadian government official with a ridiculous salary. He could have what ever needed wanted, it was never a problem, the only thing he truly wanted was the affection only a mother could give. His mother died when Kevin was only 6 but those memories were the best that he ever had.
Most of Kevins childhood was spent with the government hired nannies and tutors, having little interaction with his father left him craving attention that never seemed to come. After graduating from a private secondary school, Kevin went on to attend a highly regarded collage in the hopes of becoming the success that his father expected him to be. Though he fell short of gaining a collage diploma on the count of dropping out before his final year to get married to a stunning young woman whom he had known since childhood and even attended the same private school with. At this time in his life nothing else seemed to matter except his new life with Cassandra. But it would all come to a tragic end when Cassandra went to report on the condition of Canadian and NATO troops in Afghanistan and caught in the blast of an IED while riding with Canadian forces in a LAV 3.

Upon hearing the news of his wife's death, Kevin went into a state of rage, hatred, sadness and regret, causing his power to lash out uncontrollably. For the next two years he would keep this strange new ability a secret from the world as best as he could, until one morning while getting his mail, Kevins unstable self got the better of him and he unleashed a powerful blast of pure light in downtown Toronto, causing two people to go permanently blind and causing cars and other traffic to crash and hurt even more people.
Kevin was scared and shaking up after this, running from the police and super human authorities to the only place he could think of, his fathers estate. This would prove to be a fatal mistake,for his father already been informed about what had happend and had forseen his arrival and betrayed his only son be tipping off the last people that Kevin wanted to be involved with, Department H. Kevin was taken out be force by Epsilon troops and transported to the Dep H HQ. Where he would be forced to take part in one of the many Super human and mutant programs and experiments.
But life had a different plan for Kevin. As he was being transported via armored transport to Ottawa, they were intercepted and attacked, leaving the doors to the transport broken open and the troops knocked out. Kevin on the other hand, was completely unharmed. As he staggered out of the vehicle which had crashed in some no-name back road, he was approached by representatives from Xavier, who told him every thing about what and who he was and all about mutant kind and their struggle and giving a second chance helping flee to the safty of the School.
