Summary

So it looks like Illyana is spending more time with the Indian girl Sapna. If you examine a child's fears you'll find that the number one fear is almost always abandonment. Something has happened for Sapna, and has happened to Illyana as well. Rather interesting parallels with Illyana's own childhood (which I somehow doubt is accidental). Sapna is young and has been abandoned by her mother and father once they learned of her actual mutant abilities. Sapna apparently has power (i.e. a demon whisperer) that made her parents decide she was evil. Leaving Sapna with nobody (poor kid). Likely most of the other mutant must find her scary as well due to the whole demon thing.
