Biography

Early Life

Nikhil Patel was born in Hyderabad, India in 1993. His father was a doctor, while his mother was a computer engineer. His father was actually the doctor who delivered him. He had one older sister and one older brother. Growing up, Nikhil had man friends and while his parents were decently wealthy and able to afford a few luxuries, they never allowed it to get to their children's heads, attempting to keep them as humble as possible. When Nikhil was nine his father died in a car accident, and his older brother died in the same accident as well. He was a good student, but from then on, his grades suffered. Despite the fact that he was extremely intelligent, he wasn't getting the grades that his mother knew that he should. Nikhil felt that if he didn't know when he was going to die and that death could be around the corner all the time, that it didn't really make sense to concentrate on one's studies, instead it made sense to enjoy life and everything that if offered. It wasn't a hedonistic outlook on life, just one that ensured that he wasn't going to be able to be part of society for the most part.

His mother wanted him to concentrate on his work, but more often than not, she was unable to force him to do it. The family had saved up a sum of money, and when Nikhil was twelve, his mother found out that the applications that the family had put through years ago to immigrate over to the United States had gone through. The family had the option to come to the US if they desired. Thinking that a change in pace would be good for her son and daughter, Nikhil's mother bought the tickets needed to fly them over. Nikhil was sad to say goodbye to his homeland of India, but he was excited to be coming over to the United States.

The family said their farewells to the members of their family that were in Hyderabad. Soon they were on a very long series of flights to the United States. Their itinerary brought them to Boston, Massachusetts. Nikhil and his family found that there were very interesting differences between Hyderabad and Boston. The main difference was the change in temperature. From temperature on, everything was different, and Nikhil's mother found it hard to adjust. Luckily for him, he and his older sister were young, so they were able to change and adapt to the new environment easily. The family members already knew English, and with the exception of their accents, they were able to interface with everyone who lived there rather easily.

A year into his move to the United States, Nikhil's powers manifested. Already thinking of himself as different and as an outcast, this pushed Nikhil further away from his family, especially since his older sister had not expressed any mutations. He started acting out at school, and his mother decided to do a little research on different schools that would be able to help him.

She found Massachusetts Academy and found that it was within the family's budget, so she enrolled him at the school.
