	OOC: I think the problem is that you ignored her post completely, and you claimed to punch Ogre/Greg out yourself, rather than include Jayson's bat to the head within your post. And don't blame her or me (because I posted ahead too) for posting ahead of you. We were going along with the flow that was already established, despite how broken (only a little) it was. But you're right, this is behind us, so here I go. IC: Enzo Cannavaro "So what the hell is going on around here? Who is this guy?" asked the student who had been crushed by the big thing. Except upon further inspection, he was a little old to be a student. Maybe he wasn't. And upon further inspection, the thing wasn't really a thing, but actually one of the students himself. Enzo watched he reverted to a more human form, his arm bent in a way that it shouldn't be. "I am not sure, amico. I believe I do recognize him, although I have not been at the Xavier scoli for long. Good hit, by the way, to both of you amici." He nodded at both Geoff and Jayson.

	GM's NOTE : First off, let me say it again, good job EVERYONE. Second, I'm glad the posting issue was resolved BEFORE I was even aware of it, however it needs addressing. There will be no more OOC arguments here. Period. Take it to PM. I'm always available if needed. Third, In my opinion, In many cases I believe that posting ahead is OK, as long as it goes with the story flow. Why? Because it's 'realistic'. It's called getting first initiative, which should be a familiar game term. We have all experienced it on some level or another. Often times someone else reacts faster than us and gets to 'jump' into action before we get a chance to do so. Do you know how many times I've had to revise updates because of this? LOL! I recall having an action all planned out, then having to change it. It can be 'challenging'...just like life. I must also add that if several gamers are being tagged simultaneously, the rule applies. The thing to do, is to "incorporate" the actions that are already in play and add to it, improving it, giving it a twist, whatever. This is the best way to avoid posting collisions. (Trust me, everyone that's posting is going to have a chance to shine.) Also, since we have so few gamers as is, and with RL messing with all our schedules, I welcome the posts that are made. Having to wait for me to update is bad enough. So, let's play nice and let's work with each other. Patience, understanding , respect and cooperation go a long way. We are all here because we enjoy a good RPG, not because we HAVE to. So let's do just that and keep having Fun in this here thread. If there are any comments, PLEASE direct them to me. Now if ya'll excuse me, I have some scheming...er, planning to do. * goes to work on update.

	Tobias Bach (Aka: Trickster) The Gulag, location unknown There was a long pause before anything else happened, breaking the silence a slot at the bottom of the door opened, through which his cloths were slid. "We shall soon find out." The voice said seriously. "Go on and get dressed, we will be departing in fifteen minutes." Across from him on the austere wall a digital display appeared and began a countdown showing him how much time he had left to get ready, as well as how long it would be before getting out of this cell. "Well, this is exactly what I wanted I guess." He spoke softly more to hear a voice than anything else, even though his nerves were still on edge he was beginning to feel optimistic about his future for the first time in months. "Tobias Bach, protector of the common man." Tobias mused as he changed, "If I cannot be of help here than I won't be anywhere else." In time since his mutation had manifested he had never considered using his ability to benefit anyone, even himself. He was still afraid, but if something went awry he felt confident that the government would take control. After he finished changing he placed the smock he was wearing on the bed and sat down to wait for what was soon to come. Tag: GM Anthony Stark Jr. (Aka: Iron Man) Unknown location, Pacific Ocean The Chief puctuated his statement with a slow knowing smile. Anthony returned the smile, knowing full well what the Chief meant. "As am I Chief Moreau, Stark Enterprises has long wished to get involved again in mutant affairs and we have a lot to offer, much of which we are sure you will be pleased with." Anthony waived to a man standing on an upper deck near the command room of the ship, the man acknowledged and turned and disappeared while Anthony turned back to Chief Moreau. "If you will please follow me," he said to Wilfred and his attendants, "I have taken the liberty of preparing my observation deck for the demonstration, we should be able to see everything more clearly from there." Anthony led the way and after a few flights of stairs leading to a glass enclosed room with chairs spread evenly about the room near the glass wall and a table in the center, upon the table lay multiple black bound file folders each with a small stack of papers within. "Some of the demonstration is to be in the air, and some under water, the monitors will provide us with an uninterrupted view of the demonstration." Motioning to the folders on the table, "I have also prepared a few packets detailing performance stats as well as expected short and long term costs, feel free to take these with you when you leave today." Anthony looked to his watch quickly before motioning to an attendant standing near the door of the room, "Would you like something to eat or drink before we get started? The presentation is set to start in just over 10 minutes, and it could be lengthy."

	Marty Sayre IC: Location ~Internet Cafe, Dover Marty read through the information on Abominus and thought hard on what he was about to do, if he were to go through with it. Hunting down a fellow mutant, and this time well aware of the fact. A highly dangerous one at that, he had heard what this 'Abominus' could do. It would probably rank up there as one of his hardest jobs, maybe even the hardest ever done. Taking a deep breath to steady himself, still thinking of Allie as well, he clicked on some more sections that prompted to do so and soon was typing out to the MCU email... I agree to all terms and conditions. Am ready for a meeting of approval if that is what you wish. -Marty Sayre Tag: grey -----signature----- Brittnee My love, my life Getting married to spacelady on 8/22/09 "Ichigo!

	IC: Mental Mental's Library - Mindscape Mental sat alone, six books floating in the air in front of him, their pages turing simultaneously as he took in their words with ease. A fire place crackeled near by and Mental settled in to his Library comfortably, he'd most likely be here for quite some time. Erik wasn't quite as forgiving as his father. It would tak... The books fell to the floor in a crumpled mass, and the fire extinguished like a swift breeze had swept through the endless room. Mental's expresion was that of someone who had just seen the shadow of something they didn't expect. And, in a way he had. He was starting to feel the outside. He could feel the Mansion, utter chaos insuing. He could feel a large mass of people surrounding the building, an army perhaps, as well as panic, and fear. The collar was giving out. Soon he would be free. His expression sunk again. He hadn't made his decision. Would he side with the Prof. or would he go with Brotherhood. In all honesty, X had shown more than Mental would have thought by keeping him alive. And this Mansion was going to need his help. But it was so much fun with the Brotherhood. He drew his energies in, exiting his library into the nothingness of deep thought. He drew in on himself, and finally exerted a forceful outward push, his energies pushed with all their might to exit, excerting the collar to it's maximun capacity, before it finally succumbed to the pressure, sending the collar, as well as everything and everyone in the room, hurling against the wall. Mental opened his eyes, the restraints torn apart he was now free to get up, to move. He sat bolt up and stretched.

	A Very Secret Location : Inside the technological behemoth, a multiplicity of monitors showed data and schematics of various cities and important dignitaries around the clock. There were also military facilities shown, as well as other locations of interest, both friendly and 'unfriendly.' A uniformed being walked into a central information hub and spoke. <"Lieutenant: Status Report!"> <"We are all in strike position Commandant, and we await word from our agents. Phase two is a total success."> <"Excellent. We have waited far too long for this moment. Soon, very soon, we shall have what is rightfully ours. Long Live the Empire!!" Officers in unison: <"Long Live The Empire"> And so, the countdown continued. ******************************************************* SGB Where are you? ******************************************************** Tobias Bach (aka: Trickster) The Gulag, location unknown Two fully armored and armed guards came into Tobias' holding cell. Their dark visored helmets making them even more impersonal than they already were. One stood by the door and leveled his hi-tech rifle at Tobias, while the other approached. He came close enough to inspect the inhibitor collar on the mutant, scan him with a small handheld device, before taking two steps back. "He's clean. We're ready to proceed." The guard then addressed Tobias, his electronically modulated voice sounding as neutral as possible. "Follow me." He said as he motoined for the mutant to follow. The guard at the door kept his rifle trained on Tobias, even fater the youth passed him and walked past. No doubt Tobias could imagine the weapon still aimed at his back as they walked down a long corridor. The guards took several turns and passed various check points before emerging at a cavernous underground hangar. There were a whole series of military vehicles available here, however, it was obvious which transport they would be taking. The sleek transport that was before them had it's engines running. Two more guards stood by as a woman dressed in a dark suit beckonned then to come forward. "Hello Tobias, I am Agent Fleur." The woman said as she dismissed his escorts with a wave of her hand. "We have a very productive day before us, so glad you could join us." Agent Fleur gave Tobias a charming slime before motioning for him to board the transport. She then looked up to see the ceiling hangar doors opening, before signaling the pilot that they were just about ready to take-off. Tag: Despised 1 *********************************************** Anthony Stark Jr. (aka: Iron Man) Unknown location, Pacific Ocean Chief Wilfred Moreau followed Mr. Stark to the billionaire's observation deck. If there was ever any doubt that Mr. Stark wasn't ready for this meeting, that notion was history by now. "Some of the demonstration is to be in the air, and some under water, the monitors will provide us with an uninterrupted view of the demonstration." The enterprising Mr. Stark remarked. The Chief nodded in approval at the ample display of viewing monitors as he moved to position himself where he could have the best vantage point. Mr. Stark then motioned to some folders on a nearby table. "I have also prepared a few packets detailing performance stats as well as expected short and long term costs, feel free to take these with you when you leave today." "I trust the information is also available on datachip?" Chief Moreau querried, though it was more of a statement than a question. With a small gesture, he commanded one of his assistants to take one of the informational packets. Anthony looked to his watch quickly before motioning to an attendant standing near the door of the room, "Would you like something to eat or drink before we get started? The presentation is set to start in just over 10 minutes, and it could be lengthy." "Not at he moment, thank you." The chief said, politely declining the initial offer for the moment. "This is exciting, to say the least, seeing how we've so patiently waited for this day." Moreau said, now giving Anthony his full attention and taking a few steps towards his soon to be facilitator. "It would not do to be distracted before the demonstration." He gave a curt nod to his host. "But I must tell you this Mr. Stark, we do have a small test of our own we'd like to conduct, after the demonstration that is. I certainly hope you do not mind." Once again that knowing look came over the Chief's eyes as he waited for Mr. Stark to respond. Wilfred Moreau was feeling rather pleased at the moment. In less than 10 minutes, he would have a detailed look at the new tools he'd need to combat the growing mutant problem, and in less than 48 hours, he would have the leave to use those very same tools. At this moment, life was good for Wilfred Moreau. Tag: Despised 1 **************************************************** Marty Sayre (aka: Knightfall) Location, Internet cafe, Dover Taking a deep breath to steady himself, still thinking of Allie as well, he clicked on some more sections that prompted to do so and soon was typing out to the MCU email... I agree to all terms and conditions. Am ready for a meeting of approval if that is what you wish. -Marty Sayre Marty did not have to wait long before he recieved an encrypted response to his computer. [We have reviewed your rank and records operative Knightfall. Thus far, you are in good standings with this department. Commence the apprehension process immediately. As an independent, we understand that you may wish to capture the bounty on your own, for reward collection purposes. But if the situation warrants for you to call for back up, do not hesitate to do so. Our department will assist you in the capture of said criminal A.S.A.P. Good Hunting. MCU National Commissioner, Marcus Talbolt. And in that instant, Marty had just received the green light to go after Abominus. All that was left for him to do now was to take that fateful first step. Tag: Darth_Elu **************************************************** Linus Creed (The Blue Vortex) Los Angeles, California The phone rang. Linus and Danielle stared each other for a moment, both of them smiling and shaking their heads in disbelief. Linus reached back with a playful groan and grabbed the phone off the endtable. He looked at the caller ID. Cartelli, Joe A look of confusion flashed across Linus' face, and Danielle noticed it almost before it happened. "Who is it?" she asked, climbing off of her husband and sitting on an empty spot of the couch as her husband got up to sit up straight. She put her right foot beneath her left thigh and put her hands on her lap, something she always did when she was curious. "Cartelli," Linus told his wife. He answered the phone. "Hello?" "Hey Linus, sorry for calling you so late. Uhm...you know me as the Blue Shield, hehehehe. Funny, I didn't realize that I never told you my real name until now. Thanks for answering. Anyway, are you watching the Tube? It's all over the TV man, the mutant registration thing. I guess....I guess I'm a bit anxious abou it, y'know, not sure if we should register or not." For a moment there was a brief pause in the conversation. "So, what are YOU going to do? are you going to register?" The question hung in the air between the two heroes, their respective futures as crimefighters literally hanging in the balance, depending on their choice of action. Tag: Reynar_Tedros ******************************************************************** Abominus Deanville, Texas While everyone watched the telecast and spoke amongst themselves, she looked around, just to look at those gathered. Something in her mind bid her to turn around, but alas, she was not ready for what she saw. How many times had she seen those awful news clips, she didn't know anymore. But she certainly recognized that awful red skin, and even with those shades, she could well imagine those huge souless white eyes staring. It was him, she was certain. Her heart began to race, then even skipped a beat. Adrenaline shot through her system like lightning. Her instincts screamed his name inside her mind, but her mouth....was it disconnected? Why couldn't she scream? The freightened woman stared at Abominous, mouth open and ready to scream. She stumbled backwards and lost her umbrella. "It" was here, amongst them. As she fell, all she could think of was that she was not yet ready to die. Tag: Reynar_Tedros ********************************************** Poltergeist New york By the time Poltergeist regained his senses, he found himself lying down inside what looked like a transparent coffin. He was strapped down and he had nodes attached to his head and several other neurological vital areas on his body. He couldn't even turn his head, but his eyes worked fine. Any attempt to use his abilities resulted in failure. After several attempts, Poltergeist could notice the attractive woman looking down at him through the glass. Only then did he realize that he was still inside the van and that it was moving. "You're kinda cute for a ghost." She said, and flushed a little in embarrassement. The woman swiveled in her chair to get access to her laptop computer, then adjusted a tiny camera in Poltergeist direction. "Well, let's begin our first interview. I'm Dr. Margaret Tomita, a research specialist in supernatural phenomena. Could you tell us your name, age, cause of death and.....how come you can become fully corporeal. That's almost unheard of, more over, how long does the effect last?" Dr. Tomita gave Poltergeist a friendly 'scientific' smile. Tag: Ragnarok332 ************************************************************ Inara Xavier Mansion, Main Road Ianra remained unconcious even after the retrieval team had arrived. They used a sonic device to break up all incredible amounts of solid ice that covered the road. The medic on the retrieval team did not want to touch the young mutant while she 'sparkled' fearing that her powers where somehow protecting her instinctively. It was decided to use a drone to place the inhibitor collar on her before rendering medical assistance. Unsurprisingly, it took several attempts, as each drone became frozen each time they made physical contact with her. Finally, a drone designed to operate in extreme thermal conditions was used. Inara's powers were succesfully neutrilized and the medic on the retrieval team could begin stabilizing her. Once stabilized, the young mutant was sedated, airlifted and transported away. By the time Inara woke up once again, she'd find herself sleeping inside a white spartan room, with an inhibitor collar adorning her youthful neck and a black sphere scrutinizing her from the room's ceiling. Tag: Ennaj ************************** Magician & Eagle's Breath After a much needed rest, The Magician and the entity known as Eagle's Breath finally cross the threshold between realms and return to familiar ground. Still getting used to the experience of crossing dimensions, Robert is slightly disoriented, but the sensation is compounded by what he sees. The powerful mutant manages to catch a glimpse of Roxanne, who fades out of view before his eyes and right out of existance, according to his extra sensory perceptions. "What in...?" He says a bit confused, not fully understanding. His attention however, is immediately drawn to two figures standing before each other. By their postures, they seem ready to do combat. Both figures are female. One is covered in glowing armour and the other has long flowing white hair. In all honesty, he recognized neither one of them. He did, however, recognize Bad Boy, who had both his guns trained on the white haired female, but not the fur covered-feral looking man, who was jumping-in to attack the same white haired female. "Eagle? what's going on...?" Robert turned to ask of his Mentor, a more than slightly perplexed look coming over his face. Tag: Mitth_Fisto ******************************************************* Sam Xavier Mansion, Infirmary Sam was having a bad dream and her powers became active. Dangerously so. Jocasta immediately compensated by dropping the temperature in Sam's room low enough to compensate for the young mutant's pyrokinetic heat. ["Sam, wake up. You're having a bad dream. Please wake up Sam."] The Institute A.I. soothingly pleaded with the dormant mutant. Electronically, she also informed the Institute's senior staff of the situation, along with her contingency plan. If that did not work, Jocasta was certain to use a different tactic in her efforts to safe guard the Institute's safety, as well as Sam's. Tag: Ennaj *************************************** John, Gregory, Geoff, Jayson, Enzo, Surge & Wei-Chen Xavier Mansion, Dormitory Hallway John finally made it to the dormitory hallway. He immediately took in the scene, trying to piece it all together. Greg was on the floor, unconcious. His arm was visibly broken. Jayson, Geoff and Enzo stood nearby, looking somewhat agitated, however, John could not focus on that just yet. "Please give me some room to work." He said to the three students, as he gestured for them to move back, his hands already igniting. In an instant, John fired to very controlled streams of flame at the frozen forms Surge and Wei Chen. That portion of the hallway became fully illuminated by the yellow light of his flames. "Jocasta, please extinguish any fires I may accidentally cause." The professor said, speaking seemingly into empty air. ["Acknowledged."] Came the familiar female voice. John worked carefully not to set the walls or floors on fire as he concentrated on quickly melting Frostbite's handiwork. He knew he didn't have much time if he really wanted to save his two students. After a few moments that seemed like an eternity to him, the ice quickly began to crack and liquify. With one final controlled burst, John managed to melt the upper portion of the ice traps without causing vaporization, hence he avoided scalding his charges. Both Surge and Wei Chen fell to the ground, caughing, gasping for air and shivering all at once. John took a few seconds to administer some heat before turning to the other students. "Jayson, Greg! You take Surge and the other Wei Chen." John turned and scooped-up Greg on his arms, making sure to take care not to aggravate his already broken arm. "To the Infirmary, now! Enzo, cover our backs." The educator comanded as he began down the hallway. "Jocasta, we have three students in need of medical attention. Inform the infirmary staff that we're on our way." As John hurried down the dormitory corridor and into the Mansion proper, he supressed an explative as Jocasta informed him of the latest developments. Her outward sensors indicated that his car was totalled, and there was no signs of Inara in the area, and to compound things, Mental's inhibitor collar gave out completely. John wanted to scream. The night seemed to go on and on with no end in sight. There seemed to be no reprieve. The institude needed Erik and they needed him now. Tag: LeiaHair, DoranNu, Master_Kast7, Master_Vicky ******************************* Iori Xavier Mansion, Corridor After hearing Karra's message, Iori quickly took-off without another the word to the female professor, who seemed to wear a very worried expression on her face, now that he thought about it. Iori half ran-half flew as he made his way towards Karra. Although she spoke calmly, the young martial artist could tell that there was alot happening all around them. He needed to get into the action, one way or another. Tag: Ktala ************************** Frostbite Xavier Mansion, Infirmary section, restricted wards, Entrance to Mental's Room Brandon raged and yelled and protested, but his body kept not responding. He felt himself walking down the corridor towards the restricted wards. Until now, he had encountered only the two students he'd so easily frozen. He didn't want to do it, but someone was in his head, in his body, controlling it, drowning him out and keeping him from the 'driver's seat!' "Can anybody hear meeeee!! Anybodeeeeeee!!" All he heard in response was dark sinister laughter. Brandon grew even more insensed. He hated when psi got inside his head, or anyone for that matter. He hated it even more when they asumed control of his body. As if to punctuate that exact point, Brandon saw himself stop infront of Mental's room, then fire away with a powerful Ice Blast. The whole front area became filled with ice, which then shattered like a small mountain of glass. Frostbite's eyes grew wide as once he saw that his blast had no effect on the infirmary door. A blue shimmer infront of it which he had not noticed earlier, revealed that a protective force-field was in place. Frostbite's body laughed in that dark and sinister manner, which was totally alien to Brandon. Do you really think that's going to stop me? he said ominously. But before he could say or do anything else, Frostbite felt a sharp pain in his head. His hands immediately flew to the his temples, as he gritted his teeth and tried to keep himslef from passing out. Inside his own body, Brandon cheered! The cryokinetic mutant was aching to be free from the strange imprisonment. Little did he know that Jocasta was following Professor N'dare's instructions and was modulating through several frequencies to disrupt the psionic effect which seemed to be affecting some of the students and causing them to act in a more beligerent manner than they normally would. Brandon didn't know what was causing the interruption, but he welcomed it. By the sound of things, he could tell that whatever it was, was quickly becoming frustrated, and with that frustration came resistance. Brandon didn't like the prospect of that, so he decided to do some internal fighting of his own. ************************* Mental, KnightFall Infirmary, restricted ward The Shadow chuckled with a measure of satisfaction as it sensed the inhibitor collar finally burn out. It sensed that it had help, from Mental himself. The psionic mutant came to full conciousness with a surge of power that sent the collar and his restraints flying against the wall. Mental sat up and stretched, not noticing the darkness that permeated the room and regarded him. The Shadow's satisfaction diminished however, when it perceived several things. Mental yawned as if tired. His brain functions were slowly being lulled. At that moment, the shadow scanned all minds far and wide, and knew that a sleeping agent was introduced into the room's breathing air unbeknownst to Mental, but besides that something else gave the Shadow pause. Was Mental rethinking his position among the scheme of things? That was inconceivable. The Shadow frowned slightly, not liking where that trend of thought was leading. Had it done all this in vain? No matter. It would uphold it's part of the bargain as agreed. Lord Exodus would have to comply with payment as per their agreement. Dealing with Mental's fluctuating allegiances was not it's concern whatsoever. As for more pressing matters, the Shadow realized that it's hold on the mutant called Frostbite was being challenged, but not by another mutant, much to it's surprise. It was not ready to relinquish it's hold on the son of Bobby Drake, but circumstances may yet force it to do so. The Shadow sensed that soon it was to have company. He could easily feel the anger of another being of darkness, another one who belonged to the shadows. No doubt it had sensed it's manipulation and was now on it's way to investigate. Ahh, there... a name being whispered. NightFall. The Shadow grinned, briefly. It was always amused to encounter other shadow beings. It delighted in testing them, for during it's long existance, it had encountered few who could rival it, much less humble it. Still, amused or not, it did not plan to brook any interference to it's mission. That was something the one called N'dare was sure to attempt. No matter, let them all come. The unsuspecting brood of Xavier had much misery coming to them. Tag: DVC, HunterPrime ********************************* Professor N'dare Xavier Mansion, Secret access Route As N'dare travelled, Jocasta continually kept the professor updated on all that was going on, or rather, all that she was able to monitor and affect, which was a considerable amount of things. Jocasta had done as N'dare instructed, using the advanced holographic technology to mask the windows from outside perceptions, even to the point of making the hole in the kitchen window look like nothing had happened. All security measures were engaged and students as well as faculty members were being monitored for their protection. As it was, Jocasta's latest update mentioned how John was heading with three more injured students towards the infirmary, plus the fact that Mental's inhibitor collar had finally failed; however, his room was being flooded with a sleeping agent. Outside his room, Frosbite had made an attempt to breach and enter Mental's Room, but his attempt was foiled by a force-field. Now a modulating frequency was being used in an attempt to disrupt Frosbite from any possible outside influence. Success at this time was inconclusive. Updates on both Sam and Lera were also made. Saying that it was a busy night at the Institute would be a gross understatement. Nevertheless, N'dare, John and Sage were doing everything possible to keep it all together until Erik recovered and made his eventual return. Needless to say, they had their hands quite full at the moment. Tag: Ktala *********************************************** Roxanne Moore (aka: Hourglass) Chronoverse The starless void shimmered all around her and Roxanne found herself transported to a small nondescript town that seemed vaugely familiar. There was a clear sky which bespoke of a sunny mid-afternoon. A lengthy main street was visible, as well as the identical houses on both sides of the street. Every one here wore plain grey uniforms. As if that were not odd enough, nothing and no one moved. Everything seemed to be frozen in time. No one here could guess what Roxanne was thinking at the moment, much less what she would do. Tag: LeiaHair Hammer Bay, The Citadel, Citadel Lounge Lady Lilith Darque sat quietly in her V.I.P booth as she surveyed all that transpired within the Lounge. A vague sense of mild satisfaction came over her as she appraised the acolytes currently counted as members of the Brotherhood. With the proper leadership, these beings could be forged into a formidable fighting force. But such thoughts of potential grandeur did not really occupy her thoughts at the moment, for more important matters beckoned. Unbeknownst to all in the room, Lilith was in telepathic conference with Silkworm and Lord Exodus. It appeared that Silkworm had discovered another mutant who may be worthy of recruitment, one who called himself Abominous. Even as they conferred, Lord Exodus was already making for Torque to 'interview' the highly feared Abominous. As with everything, there was great potential for gain or loss in his recruitment, though there was only one real way to find out. Of great interest to Lilith was the announcement Lord Exodus made, concerning Mental and his imminent liberation from his captivity at the Xavier Institute. It seemed that Lord Exodus had a 'Special agent' facilitating the mutant's 'release', but something had happened. Lilith could tell, although no details were made available. Exodus sudden reticence on the matter only alluded to a deeper truth. Especially since there was a halt on the imminent attack on the traitorous mutant compound. Lilith had no doubt that those details would be made available soon enough. Gracefully returning her attention to some of the entretainment at hand, Lilith smoothly took a sip of her drink. "If this continues, we'd be better suited to find sport elsewhere." Lilith commented loud nough for Toga to hear. The dark woman turned her head just enough to glance over at Toga, give her a small knowing smirk, then look once again towards the center of attention, the table were Esmeralda and Shifter were having their amusing little contest. *** Both mutants were in position at the metallic table, and Esmeralda grinned wolfishly as her hand and Shifter finally make contact. The newcomer seemed to be enjoying himself, as was she. Hopefully he enjoyed the taste of defeat as well. The moment there was contact and fingers became interlocked, Esmeralda leaned in and squeezed hard, pulling her fist towards her shoulder and down. Keeping her elbow squarely on the already protesting metal table, there was little doubt that Esmeralda's technique was sound and her strength was that of a being who could easily press several tons without even busting a sweat. "Don't make it too easy on me sweetums" the muscular mutant taunted sweetly, as she sought to find leverage to gain an early advantage.

	OCC: Grey, you didn't have to stay up all night ! LOL Thanks for posting anyway !! I can finally post on Inara. IC: Sam (in her dream)Sam woke up in a hospital with the nexxt door neighbors by her side. There were flowers at the foot of her bed and get well cards. The room was really white, and she had apoinding head ache. An elderly man looked up at Sam. Sam blew air out and sighed. "What happened ?"she asked, completely out of it. The man came up and took Sam's hand. His wife looked at her sadly. "Samantha, this might come as a shock to you, but I'm afraid-" he sighed, his wife looked at him. "Sam, your mother died in the fire."she told her. Sam shook her head. "No." she said. "We're terribly sorry, and your father doesn't want anything to do with you Sam, you're....you killed your mother." the wife said. "No !"she yelled. (outside of her dream)Sam couldn't hear Jocasta, and her powers were increasing. The room became hotter, and she was on fire(Sam). You could barely tell that there was a body underneath the fire. (inside her dream) "No No No !!! I didn't kill her !!!!"she screamed. Sam closed her eyes and cried. The wife grinned(someone is in her dream trying to make her powers go out of control). "No !!!!!!!!"she cried. TAG-Jocasta, anyone with Sam IC: Inara: Sam's head/dream Inara was still unconscience in the spartan room. A tear rolled down Inara's cheek and fell on the floor, which became ice. She heard yelling, screaming, and Sam yelling about not killing someone(she's in Sam's head, she can hear her for some reason..it will be explained later). Inara saw someone grin. She walked in the room. "You !"she yelled and lunged at the lady. The husband grabbed Inara and threw her across the room, hitting her head hard. Blood started to appear on Inara's forehead at the top right hand side. (in the spartan room, out of the dream) Blood started to form on the right side of Inara's head. She suddenly woke up, straight up, and gasped. "Sam !" she yelled. She found a collar on her neck and tried taking it off. "I have to see Sam !"she yelled. "They're going to kill her !" TAG-anyone in the spartan room with Inara/Grey -----signature----- ROCK N' ROLL...!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Those who are about to rock....we salut you...salutes looks around to make sure coast is clear... headbangs

	IC: Eagle's Breath Having learned long long ago to always look before you leap, the scene was no surprise but he still had trouble telling whom was at the wrong at this instance. Then again because of the time it was why he came. With a perplexed look the Magician looked up at him, "Eagle? what's going on...?" Turning to him with a simpathetic look in his eyes, "Life is what is happening, a fight for control where few succeed with gladness. Both hearts are famialar, but one has two pulses. The one of time has been summoned, but the acts of battle are delayed. Go help your friends and if you so choose I can render one harmless, but I leave it to you. Go." Looking back as two figures moved in to help the female in shimmering armour, he felt a pang in his own heart as he continued to look inside at the very internal workings of both women. Both were primed for a fight, and he hoped the excersise had prepared the Magician.

	IC: Mental Infirmary -- Restricted Ward Mental could feel the world around him slowing, and deduced they were pumping sleeping gas into the room. He created a bubble of air around him, knowing he couldn't hold the gas back for long. He just needed long enough. Somethign behind him sent his body suddering, almost a 'Danger Sense' feeling. He quickly spun, searching for the person both with his eyes and his mind...but finding nothing but shadows. Strange. He spun back to face the door, keeping a part of himself sensing backwards towards the non-existant figuer. Other energies were put into opening the door, but to no avail. X had definatly Mutant proofed this room. No vents to close or open, heavy doors. Definatly mutant proof. And here he'd thought they didn't keep prisoners. He could feel another mutant outside the doors, and attempted to tap into his mind. He was in for a moment, but the place was already crowded. He saw for that instant the mutants view...a force field. A sturdy door. He withdrew instantly, there was already somoen inhabbiting that body, and not the owner. Mental went for a more risky approach. A cry for help. He sent a mental blast thought out the mansion, his words ringing in other's thoughts. "~I can help you.~" for some reason, it seemed like they needed all they could get.

Maybe even help you..." she looked at Sage with cold eyes, "And don't try to tell me that there isn't another one... I can feel things the way you do.

	IC: Toga Haburi Brotherhood~ VIP Lounge "If this continues, we'd be better suited to find sport elsewhere." Lilith commented, turning herself slightly towards Toga. "Humph.." She laughed back at Lilith. "Yes. It is.. sweet, however, to see someone play another with such intensity! He has no idea." She grinned, showing her whitened teeth. "But, my patience only lasts so long.." Toga spoke, tilting her head. "I'm gonna get changed.." Toga gracefully stood from her seat and walked through the double doors behind her. The passage led to some restrooms. She had placed a satchel style bag on top of one of the ceiling plates before visiting Lord Exodus, and she retrieved it. Tieing the last strap, Toga began to head back to the VIP Lounge. She stood in the doorway and called Lilith. "What do you think?"

	IC: Linus Creed (The Blue Vortex) Creed Residence; Los Angeles, California "Hey Linus, sorry for calling you so late," came Joe's voice on the other line. "Uhm...you know me as the Blue Shield, hehehehe. Funny, I didn't realize that I never told you my real name until now. Thanks for answering. Anyway, are you watching the Tube? It's all over the TV man, the mutant registration thing. I guess....I guess I'm a bit anxious about it, y'know, not sure if we should register or not." For a moment there was a brief pause in the conversation. "So, what are you going to do? Are you going to register?" The question hung in the air between the two heroes, their respective futures as crimefighters literally hanging in the balance, depending on their choice of action. Linus looked over at Danielle and motioned for her to turn on the television. Sure enough, there was a special report on. "Yes, we are," Linus responded. "Danielle and I have been talking about it for a while, and we have our minds set that we will. After all, as far as I know, nobody knows of our aliases, so there shouldn't be any problems. What about you?" Tag: GJ IC: Abominus Deanville, Texas While everyone watched the telecast and spoke amongst themselves, Abominus noticed a woman looking around, looking at those gathered around the televisions. She then turned around and was staring straight into his shades. He could see the fear in her eyes, the instinct to scream but the inability to do so. He couldn't help but grin at the woman, for even though she didn't know it, she was showing him respect. The frightened woman stared at Abominous, mouth open and ready to scream. She stumbled backwards and lost her umbrella. It was at this point that Abominus stuffed his hands inside the pockets of his trenchcoat and turned on his heel away from the group. He began to head home, walking at a swift pace. The humans were aware of his presence. At a time like that, that was the last thing he needed.
