Madrox wasn't doing much. Just hanging out on the Cooper farm when suddenly
he grabbed his throat and fell to the ground gasping for breath.
Yes... it was a tad dramatic. Then again Jamie isn't one for stoicism when dramatic things happen. That's Cable or Cyclops, Yo.
By the time she comes across Jamie, she has one of her stakes out, just in case.

He then springs up from where he's sitting and breathing heavily. He spies Mel looking at him and holds up his hand as he catches his breath.
"Sorry," he says in a raspy voice. "I was-"
Jamie cleared his throat as the absorbed memories of his dead duplicates flooded back into him. "I was attacked in another city."

Mel looks around, then sheathes her stake in one of her bandoliers.
"Just now?"

He slammed his fist on the ground creating a duplicate that stood over him.
"To explain," the duplicate said in a professorial tone, "Our unique genetic structure allows us to absorb kinetic energy and channel it through an unknown process to create identical duplicates of ourselves. Once a duplicate is created I/We can then absorb the duplicate back into ourselves and retain any information or skills that duplicate made have obtained while separated from me/us. Recently this transfer of knowledge know occurs whenever a duplicate dies no matter where or when that duplicate may be. Additionally more and more duplicates have taken on various parts of my/our personality while-"
Jamie pointed his hand at the duplicate and absorbed him back into him. "That's enough of that professor," Jamie groaned as he turned toward Mel. "I'm Jamie Madrox. And yeah. What he said."

That's Mel's definition of werewolves, and she's known a few.
She flinches a little at the reminder this guy just kind of died, but frowns.
"I meant for any one else."

"Sokka'll know. He was friends with one back at the apartments. Maybe have some ideas."
She shakes her head,and looks at Jamie again.
"Sorry - you OK? Need anything?"
Oh yeah, now she realises that being killed might be a little traumatic.
