<Scott> Alright.. the Brotherhood have, for the time being, seem to stop with their terrorist activity.. however other smaller groups have been popping up all over the country.. it has been reported that an attack on the Golden Gate Bridge is indeed a possibility. So, we're heading out there ASAP for patrol.
<Scott> Any questions?
<Ororo> ..Are we there yet?
<Jason> What's the inflight movie?
<Kitty> Nope.
<Jean> ::shakes her head no::
<Scott> No in flight movie.
<Ororo> Can I have a puppy?
<Ethan> What kind of smaller group are we talking here? Any conclusive members?
<Piotr> ::nods in response to Ethan's question:: Yes, do we know who we are dealing with?
<Rogue> ((Ah have so gotta talk to Xavier again... did he completely miss when Ah said 'no way, no how' am Ah doin' the team thing?...)) ::sullen look, arms folded::
<Sydney> ::Stares to the side, having no window to stare out to.::
<Kitty> ::Sitting in silence, listening to her headphones now::
<Jason> :::Twiddling his thumbs:::
<Ethan> ::Glances over, briefly towards Rogue:: ((Definitely need to find a time to try and get her to talk about this whole thing...been avoiding me since we last talked...I'm the one that does the avoiding, not used to being the avoidee..)) ::Scowls::
<Scott> The only further knowledge I have is that the leader of their group goes by the name of Craven. He's a psychic and it's possible that he's controlling the members of his group mentally.
<Ororo> Okay. So let's kick their asses and get home before it's dark. ::folds her arms impatiently::
<Jean> Yeah, what she said ::motions w/ her head towards Ro and grins..putting her hands on her hips::
<Bobby> ::nods::
<Scott> We're actually going to be staying there overnight... at the Professor's other place... Let's go.
>>SIM START<<
SCENE> WE'VE JUST LANDED AT A PRIVATE AIRPORT SOMEWHERE NEARBY SAN FRANCISCO.. TWO RENTAL VANS ARE WAITING..
<Bobby> ::stretches and yawns as the plane lands:: Gah, finally. Was thinking we'd never get here...
<Ororo> ::slowly steps outside, peering about the area curiously:: Damn...Xavier's got the hookup. But vans? Please.. ::tugs on her white jacket::
<Jason> :::Stands, stretching::: God, I hate flying. Never want my feet off the ground for more than a few seconds.
<Piotr> ::steps outside the jet, and walks alongside the others, heading towards the vans::
<Kitty> ::Steps out of the plane as well now, yawning:: San Francisco mall, here -I- come! ::Big grins as she looks around back and forth::
<Sydney> ::Walks out wearing a long cotten t-shirt and a woolen skirt to her ankles.:: ... ::Glances about.::
<Scott> We're not here to ride in style, just to get where we need to go..::goes to retrieve the keys to the vans.. hands a set to jean::
<Ororo> ::looks to Jason for a moment, cracking a sly grin upon concocting some sort of evil scheme, and then continues walking head, linking her arm around Piotr's:: You cold, Petey?
<Jean> ::stretches her arms up..wearing a light purple sweater and jeans and blinks looking over to Scott..grabbing the set:: You mean..I haev to go with them..alone ::mock frieghtened look::
<Ethan> ::Scowls, stepping out of the plane with a grateful look on his face:: I hate planes..
<Jason> :::Stuffs his hands into his blue jean pants, looks to Ethan::: You and me both. Never understood why we couldn't take a train or bus.
<Scott> ::Smiles:: You mock now.. heh heh just wait.
<Rogue> ::miserable look, dragging her feet at the rear of the group, gloved hands stuck in the front pocket of her hooded sweatshirt:: ((Ah don't know why Ah can't just stay back at the mansion... Ah told him Ah won't use my... Ah won't fight for him. Does he think by sending me along Ah'll change my mind?))
<Kitty> ::Wearing like a mini skirt, tank top, sandals:: Hmmm... ::goes to nudge Jason some:: Maybe you should get used to them? We'll probably be using them alot. ::a smirk::
<Piotr> ::laughs:: I come from Siberia Ororo, there are few spots in the United States where I will feel cold... ::links arms with her::
<Scott> Alright folks, let's go.. ::gets into the driver's seat of a van::
<Bobby> ::leaves the plane with the others, eyeing the scenery and heads for a van:: Shotgun!
<Jean> Oh please..they fear me..they know I'm not afraid to show my temper ::swings the keychair around on her finger and heads towards the other van::
<Jason> :::Smirks to Kitty::: Not if I can help it. :::Shudders:::
<Piotr> ::whispers into Ro's ear:: No chance I'm going in Jean's van... I've seen her drive before... ::moves to take a seat in the back of Scott's van::
<Rogue> ::rubs her shoulders, wincing slightly:: ((Not to mention, Ah'm getting serious ass-cramp every time Ah ride in planes...))
<Jean> ::opens the door and moves into the drivers seat and waits::
<Bobby> ::hops into the fron passenger seat of the van Jean's driving:: Ooh, comfy. :)
<Ororo> That's cool. ::unties the band around her ponytail, letting it fall onto her shoulders:: I still wanna go there sometime. ((Figured you'd still be warm afte--)) I'm with you, boo. ::smirks and gets dragged along with him to Scott's van:: Besides, there's nothing like annoying him when he's driving.
<Sydney> ... ::Looks at the vans quietly, unsure where to go before heading to Jean's van.::
<Jean> ::Looks over to Bobby and smiles:: Don't listen to the rumors, do you?
<Rogue> ::shifty look back and forth between the vans, then heads to the one that looks less populated at this point--Scott's, and climbs into one of the rear-most seats::
<Kitty> ::Smiles some, glancing to the vans:: Scott. Jean. Scott. Jean.. ::ponders:: I'll go with Jean, because yeah Scott...is....Scott.. ::runs for Jeans van::
<Bobby> ::blinks:: Don't listen to what now?
<Bobby> ::eyes Sydney heading for the van:: Hey Syd. ::smiles, then waves to Kitty as she heads there too::
<Scott> ::starts up the van and waits for everyone to get into either vehicle::
<Piotr> ::puts an arm around Ro, situating himself into one of the back seats before speaking a bit louder towards Scott:: Where are we headed now Scott? To Professor Xavier's other residence?
<Jean> The rumors..one time I drove..accidentally ran a stop sign..nothing got hurt..but since then Piotr's always tried to convince people I can't drive ::shrugs and leans back in the seat..looks back and waves to the ppl in the van::
<Jason> :::Jumps into Jean's van::: Onward, mighty steed! Get us to our detination!
<Ethan> ::Looks towards the vans and moves to get into Scott's van, upon seeing Rogue head for it:: ((Maybe I can get a chance, now, before the mission goes on..))
<Bobby> They have stop signs now?
<Sydney> So why doesn't he drive? ::Asks very quietly and sits in the back of the van.::
<Jean> ::smirks at Jason and shakes her head:: Someone's in a good mood ::sits back up and starts up her van:: That's everyone, right?
<Scott> Yeah.. We're going to suit up there then head over to the Bridge.
<Ororo> ::scratches her arm absently, then resting her head on Piotr's shoulder:: ((Ugh. I hate San Fran.)) ::pulls her sunglasses, formerly resting on the crown of her head, over her eyes:: ((Stupid sun too.))
<Kitty> ::Laughs at Jason, sits next to him:: I agree Jean...I think he's happy we're actually in a van instead of a plane... ::grins::
<Jean> ::shakes her head at Bobby and looks to Syd before putting the van drive:: I honestly don't know
>>TIME JUMP<<
SCENE> IT IS A 45 MINUTES LATER.. EARLY AFTERNOON.. WE'VE JUST COME FROM SUITING UP.. AND ARE PUT ON BRIDGE DETAIL.. GROUPS ARE.. COLOSSUS, STORM, SHADOWCAT ON THE SAN FRANCISCO ENTRANCE.. MARVEL GIRL, SHADOWFOX, ICEMAN, VOLTAGE ON THE BRIDGE.. AND CYCLOPS, PERSEPHONE, ROGUE ON THE EXIT
<Colossus> ::standing around, in flesh form, keeping an eye out on the bridge, as well as conversing with Ro and Kitty at the same time::
<Shadowfox> :::Holding a pair of binocs, looking around::: It's all quiet on the western front...I think.
<Storm> ::paces back and forth, in her somewhat nearly personalized uniform, sporting the usual pants, with a cut off X-top, and an impressive new belly button ring:: Looks awful boring here.
<MarvelGirl> Nice pun ::shakes her head and looks around at the area:: ((Wonder how long this is going to take))
<Persephone> ::Sits in the uniform wearing a black jacket, more or less to cover herself rather than being cold.::
<Shadowcat> ::Standing to the side, arms laced over her stomach:: Yup, I agree...boring. ::Dead tone:: ((I could -so- be at the mall right now...))
<Colossus> Nice jewelry Ororo ::Grins:: Is it new? ::eyeing the bellybutton ring::
<Shadowfox> Hey Eth, you think anybody'll notice a couple of nutty kids in odd outfits here? :::Trying to look normal in his uniform:::
<Rogue> ::leaning against a light-post, scowling and adjusting her gloves:: ... ::shoots looks at Cyke when she thinks he's not looking::
<MarvelGirl> ::watches cars pass by as she leans against a side, smirking lightly at SF's comment and pushes her hair back::
<Cyclops> ..::happens to catch a look or two.. shakes his head slightly, keeps his eyes out for anyone suspicious looking..::
<Iceman`> ::looks around, not really paying attention to what's going on:: ((Still thinking over that last battle we had... have to learn to control myself better...))
<Storm> Yep, got it yesterday. ::smiles faintly:: I'm sure Xavier'll be upset about it when he sees it..But eh, I'm my own woman. So he can gladly kiss my black ass. ::smile broadens:: It's not affecting any mutant/human causes.
<Rogue> ((Ah can't do this... what do they expect me to do..?)) ::stares at her toes, fidgeting::
<Cyclops> +com+ Find anything?
<MarvelGirl> If you wanted ::looks to Shadowfox:: I could make us look different..but I highly doubt anyone's really paying attention
<MarvelGirl> +com+ Nope..nothing..all is clear ::smirks and stands up..not leaning anymore::
<Colossus> ::laughs slightly:: I am sure he will probably be upset but he will understand.... ::hears the com go off:: +com+ All clear so far Cyclops...
<Shadowcat> ::Quiet the hold time, looking around::
<Shadowfox> :::Lowers the binocs::: You gotta remember, I'm from the kinda family background that considers anybody dressed in anything other than a uniform odd.
<Storm> You know..::casts her blue eyes skyward:: I think it's going to rain soon.
<Cyclops> ::looks to Perse, then Rogue:: You two alright?
<MarvelGirl> Noted ::nods to him and motions to the binocs:: I assumed you saw nothing..wasn't wrong was I?
<Persephone> Honest?
<Cyclops> ::nods his head::
<Rogue> ::coughs slightly:: Um... what exactly am Ah supposed to do? ::raises a brow at Cyke:: Ah can't fight.
<Colossus> ::smirks broadly and then sighs:: Lovely.... I suppose I should be thankful that my mutant power did not include rusting...
<Persephone> I'm going to mess up...
<Shadowfox> :::Gives an innocent smile::: Course, not a thing. Except a couple of lovelies in rather...interesting clothing.
<Storm> Baby, were that the case, you'd have had problems long before you met me. ::continues to smirk coyly::
<MarvelGirl> ::grins and perks up:: Ooh can I see?
<Cyclops> ::looks to Rogue:: You're just supposed to be here with the others.. no one's asking you to "fight."
<Cyclops> ::looks to Perse:: No you're not.
<Rogue> What am Ah here for, then? ::folds her arms::
<Cyclops> ..Moral support?
<Shadowfox> :::Sighs, than hands over the binocs::: I hate sharing new toys.
<Rogue> ::disbelieving look:: You gotta be kidding.
<Voltage> ::Scowls, crossing his arms, looking rather anxious and distracted::
<MarvelGirl> ((Might as well do something productive while doing something fun)) ::begins to scan the area telepathically and grabs the binocs..catching a glimpse:: oh my god..they look horrid
<Shadowcat> ::Crosses arms over her stomach, pacing back and forth now eyes diverted on the ground now annoyance taking over::
<MarvelGirl> No wonder you're oogling ::shakes her head and hands them back:: They didn't leave much at all to the imagination
<Colossus> ::turns and faces Shadowcat:: Are you alright Kitty? You seem rather quiet...
<Iceman`> ::paces back and forth for a bit, trying to clear is head:: Gah... ::looks to Jeanie:: See anything interesting Red?
<Shadowfox> :::Grinning evilly::: Hey, why do you think I kept watching them?
<MarvelGirl> Perv :;shakes her head and looks to Ice:: Not much..well actually a whole bunch..but..you ok? ::arches an eyebrow:: You're kinda quiet
<Shadowfox> :::Gives a disbelieving glance to Volt::: You hear this? I'm a perv to listening to my natural instincts.
<Iceman`> ::shurgs:: Eh, just goin' over some stuff in my head... maybe some sight-seeing would help. Mind if I use the binoculars? ::grins broadly::
<Shadowcat> ::Side glances at Colossus:: Nothing's wrong... ::leaves it at that, goes back to gazing at teh ground quietly:: ((So. Boring.))
<Voltage> Hmm? ::Looks up at Shadowfox, having not been listening::
<MarvelGirl> Was a joke ::smiles at SF and then looks back to Bobby:: No..you stay focused..look like you're having a hard enough time as it is ::gives him a bit of a stern look::
<Colossus> ::wide-eyed eye-roll:: ((ooooohhh-kayyyy......)) ::goes back to looking at Ro in her sexy uniform::
<Rogue> ::stares skyward, sighing to herself::
<Cyclops> ..have they told you anything, Persephone?
<Shadowfox> :::Snorts::: Right, a joke. :::Looks back to Volt::: So, enjoying the view from up here?
<MarvelGirl> ::shakes her head at the group of men she's stuck with:: {{Scott..you noticing a trend of ppl not really with it?}}
<Iceman`> Aww, but Jeanieeeeeee... ::mock stomps his foot:: heh
<Persephone> ::Tilts her head up, glancing at her side before shifting her gaze to the horizion.:: I could ask...
<MarvelGirl> ::looks at Ice and pushes him back at his shoulder:: Get over it ::smirks::
<Shadowcat> Might as well get practice in.. ::Goes to bring her legs together and hop into a handspring now, trying to maintain her balance, brown hair hiding her face now::
<Storm> ::paces back and forth again, rubbing her shoulders:: Yep, raining soon. Reallllllllly soon.
<Voltage> Not really paying attention to the view..I can fly, remember? This kind of view's not altogether new to me..
<Iceman`> Eep! ::gets pushed:: heh, ok, I'll try. ::pauses: Ok, I'm over it!
<Rogue> ((God... they're all so 'together'... Ah must look like such a freak...)) ::side-glances at Cyke and Persy, before closing her eyes and leaning back against the lightpost::
<Shadowfox> :::Slaps his forehead::: ((I swear, some people are just so...difficult)) But, how're you enjoying the sights? The sounds? The babes in little visible clothing?
<Colossus> As much as I like seeing you wet, are you sure that's the best idea? ::softly spoken to keep between himself and Ro without SC hearing::
<Cyclops> ::looks to Rogue.. hmms for a second:: ((Was a bad idea bringing her here..))
<Persephone> ::Looks up suddenly.:: ((Jean, 'they're' here!)) We have company...
<Shadowcat> ::Moves into a series of backhandsprings onto the bridge, landing on both feet::
<MarvelGirl> {{Who...ack..}} ::blinks getting the crossed signals:: Oh well..stay alert boys ::looks up and around..intensifying her mental scan::
<Rogue> ::glances up:: ((company? Oh... ))
ACTION> MARVEL GIRL CANNOT SENSE ANYTHING.. THERE SEEMS TO BE SOME PSYCHIC INTERFERENCE
<Iceman`> Hmm? ::looks around:: Something's up, is it? ::gets ready for action::
<Storm> ::rolls her eyes and turns about:: You know what I mean, perv. ::slugs him in the shoulder playfully:: I wonder if this dude is gonna be a no show or what.
<MarvelGirl> ((Always hate it when that happens)) And I can't seem to get a reading on them ::stands defensivly and keeps a look out:: {{Storm...you guys should watch out..Seph says they're coming}}
<Voltage> ::Shrugs, slightly:: What about them? ::glances briefly over towards Rogue:: ((Damnit, I need to get this sorted out soon..I don't know why it's bugging me so fucking much..))
<Colossus> ::shrugs:: I hope someone shows up so that this can be over with and we can move on.... Strange how we have to solve the world's problems huh? I guess that what it takes to have such a nice place to live....
<Shadowfox> :::Follows Volt's attention to Rogue::: ((Oooooh, I see.)) :::Lower voice::: You know, maybe you should tell her how you feel. :::Puts on an encouraging smirk:::
<Storm> Speak of the devil..Looks like someone's been spotted..::calls out to Shadowcat as well::
<MarvelGirl> Hey...guys ::Looks over to SF and Volt:: trouble coming..pay attention
ACTION> A CAUCASIAN MAN WITH BLACK AND WHITE BRAIDS WITH A HEAVY COAT WALKS PAST.. MARVEL GIRL FEELS SOMETHING STRANGE COMING FROM HIM.. AND THE PEOPLE THAT TRAIL
<Shadowcat> ::Blinks, glancing in the direction of Storm nodding, fully alert now::
<Shadowfox> :::Gives a badly executed salute::: Yes ma'am, oh fearless leader.
<Colossus> ::looks and nods to Storm, remaining in flesh form for the time being as to not cause any sort of scene:: Alright, lets keep our eyes open....
<Persephone> ::Glances at the men quietly.::
<Rogue> ::frowns, crossing her arms tighter, a little defensively::
<Voltage> What the hell are you talkin abo-? ::Trails off looking towards Jean::
<Cyclops> ::motions for Rogue and Persephone to follow, lowly:: don't make too big a scene..
<MarvelGirl> ::blinks..about to say something else and her gaze follows him..saying to everyone:: {{Think I've got something..the man with the black and white braids..big coat}} ::moves towards him::
<Shadowfox> :::Narrows his eyes, arching an eyebrow, moves into a slightly more defensive stance:::
<Rogue> ((Yeah, mah first impulse was to jump up and down and holler till they all noticed me.)) ::mutters under her breath, following Cyke::
<Persephone> ::Follows after both of them, trying to get more infomation out of the spirits about her.::
<Iceman`> ::eyes the man and the people with him after Jean's message:: ((Gotcha, let's keep a close watch on 'em...))
<Storm> ((Gotcha..)) ::glances about curiously:: ((Hah hah, he's white, with braids!))
ACTION> ONE OF THE PEOPLE TRAILING THE ZEBRA HAIRED MAN DROPS SOMETHING.. THEY NONCHALANTLY CONTINUE WALKING
<MarvelGirl> ::blinks and moves towards the object carefully to try and see what it is::
ACTION> IT BES A BOMB.
ACTION> PERSEPHONE IS GRABBED BY HER ARM FROM BEHIND AND JERKED BACK
<MarvelGirl> ((Holy Shit..)) ::to everyone again..eyes going wide:: {{It's a bomb..}}
<Shadowfox> :::Looks at the object with a confused glance::: ((Who just drops something and doesn't stop to...Oh shit!)) :::Begins backpedaling from the object:::
<Iceman`> ::eyes the object and 'hears' Jean:: ((Think I should try to freeze it to stop the detonation, possibly?))
<Storm> ((Uhhhh..)) ::glances to the others, starting towards the others:: +com+ What's our gameplan here, Cyke?
<MarvelGirl> ::blinks and puts a tk shield around it..:: ((probably won't do any good at all..but)) {{I don't know anything about bombs..}}
<Persephone> ::Lets out a soft cry, trying to squirm away but too paniced to scream loudly.::
<MarvelGirl> +com+ Scott..I don't know how much time there is..I could probably fling it over into the water
<Voltage> ::Looks at the others:: What? ::Blinks at their panicking reactions:: What the hell's the prob?
<Colossus> ::shifts immediately to metal:: Lets go... ::starts running towards the bridge where Jean's group is::
<Cyclops> ..+com+ Marvel Girl, Get it as far away from the bridge as you can.. Storm, Colossus, Shadowcat, you intercept.. I'll be down to meet you in a.. ::turns at Persey's cry..::
<Rogue> ::glances back, hearing something:: ...
<Shadowcat> +com+ Right.. ::Takes off running with Colossus and Storm now::
<MarvelGirl> ::floats it up ..keeping it a bit of a distance away from her with the shield aroudn it..breathing heavy trying to stay calm..moves towards the side of the bridge::
<Shadowfox> :::Grabs Volt's shoulder, pointing at the object::: Bomb...boom...us...dead!
<Storm> +com+ Alright. ::takes to the air:: Looks like we'll be taking down the mad bombers. I'll get the dude with the braids. ::starts up higher, making an aerial b-line for her target::
<Iceman`> ::turns his attention to where the men that dropped the bomb went::
<Voltage> Okay, okay..I get it! Now what the hell are we supposed to do?
<Colossus> ((This can't be it... This could all just be some sort of distraction to lure us...)) ::immediately begins to look about the area for signs of abnormal activity other than the x-men hurrying to the bomb::
ACTION> THE PERSON THAT HAS STYXIE'S ARM IS RATHER SCRAWNY AND JUST GAZES INTO HER EYES
<Shadowfox> Uhm...uhm...:::Motions to Jean::: I think she's trying to take care of the problem.
<Rogue> ::confused look:: ((What're they doin'..?)) ::looks from Seph to the guy to Cyke::
<MarvelGirl> ::looks around..:: ((Can't do it near supports...)) ::moves to a area away from the supports and floats the bomb over the side...takes a deep breath and sighs:: ((here goes..)) ::lets it drop..and after letting go quickly puts a shield up covering the area around her incase it blows up before it hits the water::
<Persephone> Let go... ::She atempts to kick between her captor's legs.::
ACTION> COLOSSUS IS MET WITH A ROCK HARD FIST THAT KNOCKS HIM BACK
<Storm> Here whacko whacko..::calls out softly, more than likely unheard as she scouts for the man::
<Colossus> ::slammed into a rail of the bridge:: ((What the fuck was that?)) ::turns after regaining his composure to see his attacker::
<Shadowcat> ::Blinks as Colossus is knocked back:: Ouch... ::Goes to move in to tackle the person that hit Colossus::
<Cyclops> ACTION> PERSEPHONE STARTS TO FEEL DROWSY..
<Iceman`> ::heads for the other side of the bridge, towards where the men went, turning into ice form en route::
<Persephone> ::Shakes her head, trying to fight the drowsy feeling.:: Go... let me go.
ACTION> THE BOMB GOES OFF.. NOTHING BAD HAPPENS.
<Shadowfox> :::Breaths a sigh of relief::: So, I guess I don't get splattered this time. I can live with that.
<Storm> C'mon, you fugly little bastard. Mama's got a present for you. ::continues looking for the zebra braided white guy::
<MarvelGirl> ::sigh of relief..letting the tk shield go and looks around:: {{Scott..where are you?}} ::blinks and looks to SF..regaining some color:: Yeah..
<Voltage> Nice one..::Nods, slightly in genuine appreciation:: So..now what do we do?
<MarvelGirl> Well..I'm sorry..I was kinda occupied w/ the bomb thing..I missed whatever happened in the past few minutes ::looks around::
<Rogue> ::cringes a little at the noise of the bomb going off distantly.. bites her lip::
ACTION> CYCLOPS BLASTS THE MAN IN THE ARM, KNOCKING PERSEPHONE FROM HIS GRIP.. HE STARTS TO CONCENTRATE HARDER.. EVERYONE, SAVE JEAN, STARTS TO FEEL VERY DIZZY.. THEY CANNOT STAND STRAIGHT..
<Persephone> ... ::Shakes her head, feeling sick.::
<Shadowfox> :::Shakes his head, trying to clear it, then grabs onto the railing behind him::: Somebody stop the world, I wanna get off!
<Colossus> ::Starts to feel almost as if he was drunk:: ((There is no way that guy could've managed to mess me up just like that....))
<MarvelGirl> ::blinks and looks at SF and Voltage..arching an eyebrow:: What's wrong?
<Storm> ((What the fuck? Er..s'not goo--..)) ::feeling herself slowly falling from the air, gradually picking up speed::
<Shadowcat> ::Blinks and stumbles some::: Ugh.... ::Brings a hand to her head::
<Iceman`> ::looks over the bridge after hearing the bomb explode, then back straight ahead before feeling woozy:: Eep... ::starts to wobble a bit and temporarily freezes himself upright so he's still standing::
<Colossus> shit... ::tries to muster enough movement power to get under Storm before she hits the ground::
<MarvelGirl> ::blinks and looks up:: Storm! ::looks around and blinks:: ((Something's wrong..)) {{Scott..something's really wrong..are you ok?}} ::looks at Col as she meets him and tries to slow her down w/ her tk::
<Shadowfox> :::Grips harder onto the railing::: Earth, sky, earth, water, earth...:::Pukes over the side of the railing::: I don't remember eatting corn.
<Rogue> ::backs up slightly, wincing and putting a hand to her forehead... staggers against a guardrail slightly:: ((Shit..))
ACTION> IF YOU CAN OR CANNOT NOTICE.. THE MEMBERS OF THE GROUP START TO LEAVE.. NOT BEFORE ONE OF THEM KICKS COLOSSUS AS THEY GO..
<Iceman`> ::eyes the members leaving and tries to raise his arm to fire a chunk of ice at them, but can't:: Gah, so... dizzy... ::slumps over some at the waist, his legs still frozen and keeping him upright::
<Shadowcat> ::Stumbles and ends up falling to her knees, looking around::
<MarvelGirl> ::blinks at Col getting kicked but concentrates on Storm..slowing her down completely and placing her on the pavement..laying down with her tk and looks around..sees Ice and heads towards him:: {{Scott! Answer me..}}
ACTION> EVERYONE STARTS TO RETURN TO NORMAL AS ALL TRACE OF THE GROUP IS GONE.. NO CITIZENS SEEMED TO NOTICE THE DISTURBANCE AT ALL EITHER..
<Colossus> Ah-! ::falls face first into the ground hitting hard and not getting up::
<Cyclops> ::shakes his head:: ((uh.. wha?))
<Marvel Girl> ::steadies Ice:: I have no idea..but I think it hit everyone but me {{Are you ok, Scott?}}
<Cyclops> ::looks towards the group::
ACTION> ROGUE'S VISION IS STILL SOMEWHAT SKEWED.. AS SHE REACHES OUT FOR A GUARD RAIL.. SHE OVER COMPENSATES AND STUMBLES.. OVER AN EDGE.
<Marvel Girl> Can you walk? ::looks to Ice::
<Colossus> ::shifts to flesh form while lying on the ground:: ((ugh.... what the fuck was that... I feel like I've been hit by the Trans-Siberian Railroad Train))
<Rogue> ::eyes widen in surprise, as she reaches for the rail again, trying to stabilize herself:: ...
<Marvel Girl> <<;;pokes Ice::>>
<Iceman> <<...ow >.< What hehe? >>
<Marvel Girl> <<Jean asked you question hehe>>
<Iceman> <<ah, missed it in all of the join/parts ^^;;>>
<Cyclops> +com+ Try to find them-- ah shit.. ::runs over, and grabs at Rogue's hand::
<Iceman> ::rubs his forehead:: I think I'm ok now, just a little woozy...
<Cyclops> <<I told whoever is able to go find the people.. and Rogue fell over an edge..>>
<Rogue> ::manages a frightened squeak:: ?!
<Marvel Girl> ::blinks and looks around:: {{Scott..what's wrong?}} ((Gonna hurt him if he doesn't asnwer me straight)) Come on and help me with people..Scott's nuts if he wants us to go after them ::moves towards Colossus::
<Colossus> ::slowly tries to get up, his body actually showing bruises for once:: ((Someone is going to pay....)) ::begins to look around in an almost panic-ridden fashion looking for whoever attacked him::
<Cyclops> Gotcha! ::heart racing a bit:: A little too close for my liking..
<Marvel Girl> ::sighs:: Col..don't worry about them..help Storm..and all the others..I'm going to go check on Cyke b/c he isn't answering me ::nods to him and heads towards SCott's team::
<Cyclops> ::tries to pull Rogue up::
ACTION> ROGUE'S GLOVES STARTS TO SLIP AS CYCLOPS PULLS HER UP
<Rogue> ... ::stares at Cyclops:: ..((Oh my god.. they're going to..)) Let go! Let go let go! ::irrational squeal::
<Marvel Girl> ::jogs towards Scott and slows down as she comes towards him:: Oh my god...Scott? ((Who is it he's pulling up?)) ::runs quickly to the rail to see what's happening::
<Cyclops> ..What are you talking about? Calm down! you're only making it worse! ::tries to pull her up more::
<Marvel Girl> ((Rogue..oh shit)) Scott..let her go..I can pull her up with my tk ::looks at him sternly::
<Rogue> NO! Don't touch me! ::frightened, twists, trying to make a grab for the side herself::
ACTION> THE GLOVES SLIDE ALL THE WAY OFF.. CYCLOPS MANAGES TO GRAB ROGUE'S ARM.. HER BARE ARM
<Colossus> ((Storm...)) ;:runs over to her side, ignoring his own injuries:: I'm sorry, I wasn't fast enough... ::picks her up in his arms:: I'm sorry Ro....
<Marvel Girl> Scott! ::grabs his arm..not touching Rogue..and tries to get him loose..while picking Rogue up with her tk and trying to pull her away from him::
<Cyclops> ::Eyes roll back as he let's Rogue's arms go and Marvel Girl catches her.. ::knocked out::
<Storm> ::fists clenched, her expresison turns dark:: However did that is gonna get their asses whooped now..
<Marvel Girl> Scott! ::looks back as she floats Rogue over the rail to safety and moves quickly over to him..kneeling down beside him and trying to get him to wake up::
<Rogue> ::still for a moment, hanging in Jean's tk grip, panting slightly:: ... ((Oh god, his mi--...)) ::eyes start burning red::
<Colossus> Are you alright.... ::helps her to her feet:: I don't know what happened, I could barely move... and then....
<Marvel Girl> Oh ..Scott wake up ::starts to check him out to see how bad he is::
<Voltage> ::Continues flying after the attackers, in the direction he thinks they went:: +Com+ Uhm..right..so we're sure they went this way?
ACTION> SCOTT HAS A PULSE AND IS BREATHING FINE.
<Storm> Yeah..Guess something caught me or whatever. ::scans about:: They got away? And uh..what happened to Cyke?
<Rogue> What... what's.. ::stares around, blinking rapidly:: ((what the fuck?)) ::backpedals, stumbling and falling to the ground, as a brief eyebeam scuds into the ground where she was looking:: ((get out get out get out get out!))
<Marvel Girl> Thank god ::shakes her head:: +com+ Get back here..man down..It's Cyclops
<Marvel Girl> ::blinks and looks over to Rogue:: Rogue? ::eyes go wide:: ((What in the fuck happened?))
<Persephone> ::Watces in shock.::
<Voltage> Wonderful..::Turns in midair flying back towards the others at his top speed::
<Colossus> ::totally having been not paying attention to anything else that was going on:: What the... ::moves over to look to Scott:: Is he alright?
<Iceman> ::eyes Cyke on the ground, then Rogue backpedalling:: Hey, Rogue, are you ok? ::eyes her, heading toward her direction as she moves back::
<Storm> ::blinks as she notices an optic blast, or so she believes:: Petey..Did you just see that? ::moves over to Cyke:: If he didn't do that..who did?
<Marvel Girl> He's fine...but..Somehow I think Rogue is the worse for the wear
<Rogue> ::looks toward MG and Ice, frightened, short beams sort of flickering as she looks around:: ... ::seems to come to herself with a start, closing her eyes tightly and covering her face with an arm:: ((Calm down... just breathe...))
<Marvel Girl> ::looks to Storm and then to Rogue:: ((blast...but...)) ::eyes go wide:: Oh shit..she has Scott's powers
<Marvel Girl> ::moves over to Rogue..talking softly:: Rogue..it's Jean..that's right keep your eyes closed..we're gonna get everyone back to the base and contact the professor
<Rogue> ::stands up unsteadily:: Where... where are my gloves? Give me my gloves. ::accent seems a bit faded::
<Colossus> ::wide-eyed and open mouth:: ((What the fuck is going on?))
<Iceman> ::walks over to Rogue, putting his hand on her shoulder:: It'll be ok, just calm down...
<Voltage> ::Lands down near the others:: What happened to Summers..? ::Watches everyone looking towards Rogue:: What's going on?
<Marvel Girl> ::looks around:: Seph..get Rogue's glvoes..Colossus..get Scott
<Storm> ..How? ::stares at Rogue for a moment:: ((They best be careful.)) ::leans down to Cyke, and smacks him lightly across the face a few times:: Huh..He's out cold.
<Rogue> ::shrugs away from Iceman, sharply:: Don't... touch me. ::gives her head a confused shake:: ...All of you get .. Get Scott to a van.. and to the Professor's base here.
<Colossus> ::Carefully picks scott up and slings him over his shoulder:: Easy now..... ::starts heading towards the vans::
<Marvel Girl> Storm..you're not helping ::gives her a look and moves close to Rogue:: Rogue..I'm going to guide mentally..is that ok with you? So you can walk and not bump into things ::looks to Bobby..giving him an encouraging look and motioning him to follow Col::
<Iceman> ::blinks:: ((Hope she's ok... seems to be fine, just a little confused. Then again, we're all a little confused after what happened...)) ::shrugs it off::
<Storm> ((..Her voice doesn't even sound right anymore. What the hell is up?)) ::skeptically looking towards Rogue, then looking at MG:: I've seen them do it on TV. ::shrugs, and follows after Piotr:: ((Next time I'll electro-shock his ass instead of trying to be helpful.)) ::rolls her eyes to herself::
<Persephone> ::Retreives Rogue's gloves and hands them to Jean.::
<Voltage> ::Blinks, looking around confusedly:: ((Okay..what the hell is going on? What the hell is wrong with Summers...and why is Rogue freaking out?))
<Iceman> ::half smiles at Jean and follows Colossus::
<Colossus> ::reaches into Scott's pocket and pulls out the set of keys for one of the van's:: I do not like losing...
<Rogue> Set.. ::touches her forehead:: Set him up in the infirmary.. ::blindly glances toward Jean:: No! Stay out of my head and don't touch me! ... My gloves? ::holds a hand out::
<Marvel Girl> Ok ok..I'm sorry..I was just trying to help ::still talking softly and places the gloves her hands:: Want to just follow my voice then?
<Rogue> ::takes the gloves and swiftly pulls them on:: ... Just a moment. ::stares skyward once more, before opening her eyes and letting off a solid beam of energy, which slowly stutters to a halt, before she lowers her head warily, glancing around the others with care:: ((That's better..))
<Marvel Girl> ::nods:: Ok then..if anything starts to go wrong..just yell ::shakes her head and moves towards the van:: ((Lord..this is a mess))
<Voltage> ...::Stares in utter surprise for a second:: Well...that's new.
<Rogue> ::pale in the face, walks slowly back towards the vans, avoiding people and keeping her eyes squinted slightly:: ..
<Iceman> ::blinks at Rogue's actions:: ...o ...k.
<Marvel Girl> ::moves to Col:: Do you mind driving so I can keep an eye on his vitals and such?
<Colossus> ::slouches a tiny bit and unlocks the van, sliding open the back door and stretching Scott across the seat:: 'Ro, keep an eye on him, the trip shouldn't be too long... ::moves around the van to get into the passenger seat::
<Iceman> Ooh! Ooh! I can drive! ::waves his hand in the air::
<Storm> ((Some crazy folks around here..)) ::takes a seat, crossing her arms:: ((And dude, we got our asses handed to us.)) ::glances over at Cyclops for a moment:: So uh, what happened?
<Marvel Girl> Storm..go drive the other van ((i'm not talking right)) ::Rubs her forehead and hands her the keys:: I'll watch him
<Persephone> ::Walks to the van and takes a seat in the back, again.::
<Rogue> I.. He can't drive, obviously... someone will have to drive this van. ..no.. I will. ::moves forward, taking the keys before Storm can snag them::
<Iceman> Ooh! Me! Me! ::frowns as Rogue takes the keys::
<Storm> ::blinks:: The fuck.. ::shoots a glare towards Rogue:: Seniority works around here, Skunky.
<Voltage> ::Scratches his head:: ((Now I'm even more confused than before..)) ::Moves slowly back towards the vans::
<Marvel Girl> ::shakes her head:: Storm is driving..and that's it..we need to move! ::sounding stern and moves into the back seat near scott::
<Colossus> ;:ignores the rest thats going on, and starts the engine of the van, waiting for everyone to be seated, and doors to close before he puts it in drive and heads back to the mansion<?>::
<Rogue> ::tosses the keys in one hand:: Ro, I'm not in the mood to deal with your shit. I'm driving back. End of discussion. ::takes the drivers seat::
<Storm> ::grits her teeth:: Jesus christ, you're already pissing me off about as bad as Summers. Fine, what the hell ever. ((Just don't be surprised when your room is fucking frozen over at 2am, bitch.))
>>TIME JUMP<<
SCENE> THE WEST COAST XAVIER MANSION.. OVERLOOKING THE BEAUTIFUL SAN FRANCISCO BAY.. EVERYONE IS AROUND.. SCOTT IS FINE, STILL OUT LYING IN A BED IN THE INFIRMARY. THOUGH... RAIN CLOUDS HAVE JUST APPEARED FROM NOWHERE AND IT IS RAINING NOW.
<Storm> ::sits outside, still cussing rather sharply under her breath:: Dunno who the hell that newb is. ..Trying to tell me what to do. Oh hell no, she's gonna be getting put in her place real quick..
<Marvel Girl> ::sits in a chair next to Scott's bed and watches him..with no one else there she just talks out loud:: Lord..I'm not used to being on this end. Usually you're the one nursing me
<Colossus> ::sitting beside Storm:: I don't know what happened back there Ro.... Im sure she's got some explanation for it..
<Persephone> ::Sits on the steps of the manison, changed into her black/red woolen skirt and cream long sleeve t-shirt::
<Rogue> ::slips into the infirmary, very quietly, standing at the back of the room for a moment unnoticed... her hair is strangely darker than usual, save for the white streak, and she seems a few inches taller and thinner::
<Iceman> ::exits the mansion, seeing Sydney on the steps:: Uh... hey there. Feelin' ok?
<Storm> I don't give a damn. She had no right whatsoever to talk to me like that. I'm noone fuckin' baby Pete.
<Marvel Girl> ::sighs and bites her lip:: You've helped me through so much..and here I am..really having no clue what to do ::laughs lightly, nervously and takes Scott's hand:: Just want you to wake up and stop me from having to worry about you..you should be the one worrying about me, damnit ::said jokingly::
<Persephone> ::Her long dark hair is twisted into chiffon, she watches the rain.:: I'm breathing.
<Voltage> ::Sits on the roof of the Mansion:: ((This has been...one weird day...I'm still trying to figure out what the hell is going on, altogether..what happened to Rogue? And what does it have to do with Summers?)) ::Scowls::
<Colossus> No one's? ::slides his seat a bit closer to hers trying to put an arm around:: Just relax 'Ro, I'm here for you... Things will be alright, don't worry
<Rogue> ::watches Jean and Scott quietly for a moment, before clearing her throat slightly::
<Iceman> ::sits next to Sydney, still keeping a few feet between them:: Well, that's always good, or so I hear anyway. ::smiles, watching the rain too, freezing portions of the air in front of them to form a happy face::
<Storm> Yea, noone's. ::sighs quietly:: It's bad enough getting shit from Xavier, Summers, and Jean..but now her too? See, I kind of thought she was like me. I don't know why, just something I felt, I guess. But it turns out she's turning into another Scott, Xavier's Pet, Summers.
<Persephone> I was useless again, today. ::Sighs.::
<Marvel Girl> ::blinks, looks over in Rogue's direction and lets go of Scott's hand:: Oh..uhm..Hey Rogue
<Colossus> We barely know her Ororo... ::Said a bit more stern:: And whatever happened on the bridge must have gotten her really shaken up.... It isn't fair to her not to hear her side of it...
<Rogue> He.. should be fine, you know. The contact wasn't long enough to cause damage. He'll wake up a little confused, in an hour or so, tops. ::taller than MG now, by a couple inches::
<Iceman> ::frowns:: Hey now, we'll have none of that! Besides, it's not like I was today's MVP either, heh.
<Iceman> And who was the one that found out the baddies were coming today, hmm? If not for you, they might've take -all- of us, even Jean, by surprise. ::nods::
<Persephone> But... I was near by with what happened to Scott.
<Marvel Girl> ((That's..so weird..it was like...sensing Scott..not Rogue..)) ::blinks and looks a bit shocked at Rogue:: ((I just...it feels and looks..)) ::shakes her head :: Sorry..I just..uhm..worry..::sighs and looks up at her:: What...exactly happened?
<Rogue> ((I need to speak with the Professor about this...)) ::silent for a moment, with a very Scott-ish expression:: I don't know, exactly. It was... unexpected.
<Voltage> This whole thing is confusing and screwed up..
<Storm> ::Her gaze turns towards the rain:: She doesn't know me either Pete. ((None of you do.)) ::expression turns somewhat sour:: Besides, like nearly plumetting to my death from the air was any better? Makes me wonder about my powers.
<Iceman> And there was nothing you could do, Syd. Don't feel bad about that at all, really.
<Marvel Girl> ::blinks and looks down:: ((That...but it..)) You..so stupid ::sighs and shakes her head..looking up to her again and smiles:: I'll be ok..and thanks..for the exta he'll be ok..I know..just..extending the same curtesy he's done a thousand times by sitting with him
<Colossus> I don't think that was entirely your fault.... Something happened to me too, as if I couldn't control myself or keep myself standing up... Everything became really dizzy...
<Persephone> ::Cold sigh.:: I just want to go home.
<Rogue> Believe me... ::faint wry smirk:: Nothing like this has ever happened before.. ::touches her eyes, briefly:: ((Why am...Why... )) ::vaguely confused look, nods to Jean and heads out of the infirmary::
<Iceman> ::looks down at his feet, tracing his finger through a little puddle and leaving little trails of ice on its surface:: Yeah, I hear you Syd. ::sighs a bit::
<Persephone> Why can't you go home again?
<Storm> ::shrugs:: I love this rain..Even when I'm pissed off, it's really cool.
<Marvel Girl> ::nods and watches her leave...then looks back to Scott;: ((Why in the hell does she look like you scott..and act like you..and feel like you)) ::bites her lip again and takes his hand again::
<Rogue> ::glances out a window, hesitating:: (('Ro's pissed...))
<Iceman> ::looks up at Syd:: Well, if by home you mean the mansion, I guess I can. Home home, well... I could, but my father and I... eh, I just don't wanna. ::pauses awkwardly, then changes the subject:: What about you?
<Colossus> ::slight smile:: Yeah... its pretty relaxing
<Storm> <<What was your first indication? *eg*>>
<Storm> Wonder how ole One Eye's doing anyways. They ever figure out what made him flip out or whatever? ::forces her eyes away from the rain, and looks to Piotr::
<Voltage> ::Sighs, glancing up into the rain:: ((Feh..isn't the same..usually manages to be comforting..))
<Rogue> ::stares at her reflection in the window:: ...((God, that's disturbing.))
<Colossus> I'm not sure... I haven't talked to Jean since I left Scott in the infirmary.... Why don't we go find out?
<Cyclops> ..::squeezes back on Jean's hand::
<Persephone> ::Sighs, lifting one leg in the air just slightly to look at her chunky boot.:: They watch Fox news at lot. ::Drops her foot and rasies the other one.::
<Marvel Girl> ((Knew I should have brought a book..)) ::smirks and shakes her head..and looks down at her hand and then over to his face:: Oh..hey there ::smiles brightens her face::
<Rogue> ::wanders down the hall to the kitchen, expression somber::
<Persephone> So... I guess they now know that I didn't escape from the mental ward to kill them.
<Cyclops> ::eyes closed, due to lack of visor, turns his face towards Jean and half smiles:: where am I?
<Voltage> ::Glances up at the sky:: ((Maybe it's the different mansion? heh..Hell, you'd think being this close to "home", I'd be more relaxed, but..geez..))
<Storm> I don't think I want to go there just yet. ::she hugs herself consciously, having still worn her costume since they got back:: It'd make me look weak, and I'm not about that.
<Iceman> ::eyes Syd's boots and her legs for a sec before promptly returning his gaze to her face:: Huh? The news you mean? heh ::blushes a bit but cools his face's temp to disguise it:: Ah, I see... well, it's good that they dont think that, isn't it? ::concerned look:: ((I really have no idea what this poor girl's been through...))
<Marvel Girl> ::squeezes his hand back and then moves to the table, grabbing his glasses and putting them over his eyes:: Infirmary..gave us a huge scare..well me at least..Ro got to smack you so I think she's happy ::grins and sits back down::
<Colossus> Alright.... I'm going to go see how Scott's doing... ::Stands up:: You going to stay back here?
<Rogue> ::rummages around in the fridge for a moment before pulling out a brown jug and pouring a glass of chocolate milk, then sitting down at the table to stare into the glass quietly:: ((I suppose my secrets are out, then...))
<Cyclops> ::opens his eyes to looks at Jean:: what happened? All I remember it the bridge.. and catching Rogue.. then I was all black..
<Storm> ::frowns, looking towards him again, and then looks away silently:: ((Why do you even ask that?))
<Persephone> ... Xavier got me out of the mental ward I was in. My parents thought I was insane. I haven't heard from them in a year... two?
<Marvel Girl> ::opens her mouth to explain but nothing comes out..she shrugs:: Uhm..you touched her...I think and it knocked you out..I just remember seeing you fall back an..::blinks and shakes her head:: ((quit rambling..)) Uhm..she's like...she has your powers..all I know..we're going to call the professor..but I didn't want to till you woke up
<Colossus> ...Alright.. ::walks back towards the mansion, stepping inside:: ((I can't deal with her when she's upset.... She won't accept anything I say as reasonable....))
<Iceman> Really? That's terrible, Syd. I'm... so sorry. ((Geez, and I though my dad was hard on me...))
<Cyclops> ::both eyebrows raise a bit as he sits up:: ..what?
<Voltage> ::Sighs and slowly stands, hovering down off the roof, and moving towards the back door::
<Persephone> I guess they 'cared' or was worried...
<Storm> ::turns around for a moment, looking as though she's about to speak to him, and then forcefully turns back, as her mood worsens, reflected by the now steady rainfall::
<Rogue> ::sips the chocomilk, making a slight face after each sip::
<Colossus> ::Walks past the kitchen, sees rogue, backtracks and stands in the doorway:: Hey.... Are you alright?
<Persephone> But the thing is, it wasn't because I'm a mutant and therefor a freak in the family.
<Marvel Girl> ::watches him rise up..and stands up herself..sitting on the edge of the bed and looking him over...physician like though:: She has your powers..and it may sound crazy..but she's..like you..when she's around..I sense you and not her
<Persephone> My father's side of the family has mutants too...
<Cyclops> ..how?
<Rogue> ::glances up, eyeing Colossus for a moment:: All things considered... probably.
<Cyclops> I don't understand..
<Colossus> ::looks down slightly:: Ororo's upset.... What happened with you two back there? I don't want you two to feel weird around each other, so I am trying to mediate the situation...
<Marvel Girl> ::shrugs:: I have no clue..not even sure if Rogue knows ::finishes examining him..smirks and roughs up his hair a bit:: Everything feeling allright?
<Iceman> Yeah? I don't think there are any in my family... but hey, they were probably just worried about you Syd. They just care about you, and they're probably trying to find out where you are now.
<Storm> ::takes a deep breath, and exhales, again forced. She then brandishes one of her locks from the inside of her top, and holds it in her now open palm::
<Persephone> I'll believe it, when I see it. ::Tried sigh.::Got any brothers or sisters?
<Rogue> ((Not just my secrets, either...)) ::frowns at the tabletop for a moment before glancing back up at Colossus, raising a brow:: I was just taking control of the situa.. ::pauses, rubbing her forehead distractedly:: ..situation... ::blinks, eyes starting to lose the trace of glow they've had::
<Cyclops> I feel a little drowsy, but I'm otherwise fine.
<Voltage> ::Enters through the back door into the kitchen, pretty much drenched::
<Iceman> Nope, I'm an only child, which I think relieves my father, don't know what he'd do if he had another mutant child... ::shifts a bit, looking uncomfortable:: Um, what about you?
<Marvel Girl> You sure? ::looks at him:: No playing the hero allowed, mister
<Colossus> ::scratches his head almost a little confused at the situation:: Oh.... I see... I just didn't realize you were so passionate about driving... I really don't know anything about you, I'd like to learn more though if you are willing to share
<Persephone> Older sister. Has... powers I think that deals with empathy.
<Cyclops> ..wait as second.. you said she's like me? ..how is she like me?
<Rogue> Ah... I... ::stares at the glass of chocomilk blankly for a moment:: Ah'm not.. ((it's gone? He's gone.. but... ...))
<Storm> ::holds the pick, and begins to scratch something into the window siding:: ((Wonder if it's really worth it though. It's alright here, sometimes. And probably better than being out there again.. I wonder though.)) ::slips the pick back into it's hiding place, and brushes her hair back:: ((Still can't believe that bullshit though.))
<Colossus> ...::shrugs slightly:: The offer is on the table if you change your mind... The door is always open.... ::brief wave before walking out of the doorway, almost colliding with Ethan:: Woah... Sorry about that Ethan...
<Iceman> Ah, I see. ::pauses, digging for something funny to hide his emotions, as usual, and says in his best Clinton voice:: Ah feel your pain... ::grins, eyeing Syd for a reaction::
<Marvel Girl> ::sighs and shrugs..looking around and then back at him:: It's crazy..but she changed...she just..looks like you..subtle..and she did that face you do when you're talking serious to me ::smiles and continues:: uhm..and..::looks back to where Rogue was standing earlier:: She was in here earlier..and it was ilke I was sensing you and not her
<Rogue> ... ::tense whisper:: ..what did Ah say?
<Cyclops> ..you sensed me in her head?
<Persephone> ::Snickers.:: Wasn't too bad of a president.
<Voltage> No prob, Petey. ::Shakes his head::
<Cyclops> ::..heart rate starts to rise:: ((Nonono.. can't be))
<Marvel Girl> Yeah I guess..I didn't even know she was in the room..b/c it only felt like you were in here ::looks at him...blinks and looks at his monitor and back at him..her eyes wider:: what's wrong?
<Iceman> ::chuckles:: Nope, not at all. ::smiles at Syd:: heh... um... yeah, hehe. ::looks back at the rain again for a bit, then down back at his feet::
<Colossus> ::starts walking towards the infirmary:: ((Maybe Rogue really is mean spirited... I would have liked to think of her a bit more kind, but so far Ororo's description is pretty accurate...))
<Rogue> ::visibly pales:: ((What did Ah say to Ororo? Oh god, she's going to hate me... Scott is going to hate me... Ah saw his... oh god... ))
<Cyclops> ...::gets out of bed..puts some clothes on, sounds a little frantic..:: Where is she?
<Voltage> ::Steps into the kitchen, seeing Rogue and blinking:: Uh...hey. Uhm..what's up? I mean...how are you doing?
<Marvel Girl> ::blinks:: talk to me..what is it? ::Looks more scared at him::
<Persephone> So why are you talking to a loopy gal like me?
<Cyclops> ..I just need to know where she is.. ::leaves the infirmary and starts to jog down, looking for Rogue::
<Rogue> ::rubs her face:: ((He's gonna kill me if he finds out Ah know...)) um...
<Storm> ::takes a step over the railing after opening the window, and carefully forces the winds to embrace her as she slowly step onto solid air:: ((If my powers mess up..I'll make a nice splat. I'm sure they'd love that though.)) ::clenches her fists angrily, and takes a couple of more determined steps:: ((S'all good though, noone's going to control me again.))
<Marvel Girl> But...uh..::watches him leave and her face falters...looks down at the bed, staring at it:: ((What..was that..about..)) ::sighs and keeps looking at the bed::
<Cyclops> Rogue..?!
<Colossus> Oh Hey Scott, how are you feeli-::gets ran past, elbowed on the way:: ((Alright... Im just going to go to my room and draw.... Draw portraits of these guys missing teeth...))
<Iceman> ::quickly looks up at Syd:: You're not loopy, heh. Did I say you were loopy? I didn't say loopy, did I? Eep, now I'm rambling, I should just shut up, yes, shut up. Not you, me I mean, to shut up that is, heh... ::coughs, looking embarrassed, with no amount of cooling to hide it::
<Rogue> ::stands up, having returned to her normal height and look, and picks up the half-empty glass to carry it to the sink:: ...Ah'm fine, Ah don't know what happened... ::hears Cyke yell and drops the glass in the sink with a shatter::
<Colossus> ::scratches his head, and turns around heading back towards the main hallway and towards the dormatories::
<Persephone> ::Laughs.:: I'm loopy!
<Cyclops> ..::enters the kitchen...shaking a little bit, softly:: Rogue?
<Voltage> ...Uh..::Blinks, hearing Cyke yell:: ((He's up and around?)) Uhm..::Looks extremely awkward for a minute:: ((Uh..hell..now what?))
<Marvel Girl> ::puts a hand to her mouth and rubs her lip..thinking:: ((god don't cry..you big ass sissy)) ::sighs and looks up..then hops off the bed and heads out of the infirmary:: ((Why in the hell do you even care..))
<Rogue> ::freezes where she stands, hand still suspended above the broken glass in the sink:: ...
<Persephone> You never said it, I said it.
<Cyclops> Rogue? ::moves to her side::
<Iceman> hehe, well, if you say so... ::smiles::
<Cyclops> ::moves to touch her shoulder... stops and pulls his hand back to his side::
<Storm> ::stretches against the rain, then sitting, crosslegged:: ((I'm sure Xavier'll blow his top too, over how "immature and uncivilized your behaviour was today, Ororo. You should learn to put aside your emotions in situations like that." Act like you know how the hell I feel, bastard. Sneaking in my thoughts doesn't mean jack shit.))
<Marvel Girl> ::looks out a window:: ((It's raining..probably Storm..would talk to her..but I'm not in the mood)) ::sighs..rubbing her forehead and moves down the hallway::
<Rogue> ::very tense stance, stares at the glass shards:: ... Ah didn't mean to! Ah'm sorry, Ah can't help it! Ah didn't do it on purpose! ::voice unsteady::
<Colossus> ::walks up the stairs and enters his room, leaving the door open, but grabbing his pencil and sketchpad, and stretching out on his bed:: ((What a horrible day....))
<Cyclops> ..I know.. ::gulps:: Do you know..about.. it?
<Persephone> Exactly, I said so. So... hmm... We should get a puppy for the manison.
<Voltage> Uh..yeah..I'm just going to..::Quickly starts to back out of the kitchen::
<Persephone> A collie or a mix.
<Rogue> ::barely audible:: ....I.. Ah mean, ah... kindof... ::fidgets::
<Cyclops> ...you know...
