Colossus ushered the rest of the students into the cafeteria. I dread knowing even the bit about what has happened. I must let Beast know about the military weapons. I know Tony Stark would never allow anyone other than S.H.E.I.L.D. to use his weapons. This cannot end well at all, he thought as he went to take a seat not far away from Beast, but had a good view of all the students.
He saw Machete do something that made Decibel grimace and he almost rolled his eyes. They can settle this themselves, though I do hope they have enough sense not to fight in front of the little ones, he thought as he spied Karma coming in with her Alpha Squadron. Before he could think or say anything, the loud noise of the helicopter rang in his ears as lights blared into the cafeteria from outside. "What could it be now?" Colossus said with an exasperated tone as he stood up and looked outside, already on his guard.

Hank had sat silently and watched as everyone arrived and got settled. 'The Hellions are here, punctual as always. Emma always prefers her team to come early for some extra practices in. What on Earth is Kelly Burns doing back? I thought I had at least another two weeks before I had to start locking up all my equipment. Hotwire is here as well? Scott must have sent for her. Rogue brought in the students from outside, the two new ones have arrived. I do believe that is Hemlock and Nightshade, if I recall correctly from their files. Aren't we missing that new Corsair that Emma spoke to me about several days ago? And where are the two wolf twins?' he thought before he snapped to attention and stood up at the sound of a helicopter landing and the blinding lights the flashed through the night sky and into the already bright cafeteria.
"What on Earth? A bit late for a visit I must say," Hank said to no one in particular as he made his way toward the door that lead to the patio as well as their backyard. He put himself on his guard and squinted, trying to make out the two figures. One of them was hard to miss. "Forge? My stars, I had no idea you were joining us today," he said jovially instantly recognized his long time friend's figure and the unmistakable pony tail.

Rubbing her hands, Ivy walked behind Rogue her emerald sharp twinkled eyes wander over the whole cafeteria, a burning sensation to lick and warm her shivering lips sprang up on to her before she shrugged the thought away and continued walking towards a table Rogue had pointed. Smiling at Rogue, her dazzling red glossy lips shined as her hair that flowed down her back with curls bouncing at the end. Nightshade's petite frame, straight and exquisite as she sat down on one of the tables, her smile widening to see so many more people of her own kind, mutants..unique outcasts. Smiling at the sight, her eyes twinkling smiled as well..
Panicking slightly as she heard the helicopter sounds, Ivy jumped up to her feet making her winter mini skirt fly up shivering. Blushing a furiuos crimson, Nightshade turned down the idea and tried to see what was going on.

Kris laughed gently at Ana and smiled. "Well your right in that, cutie." he said with a small wink and a grin. "I'm English, and daaamn i miss the accents back there, it's a little intimidating with everyone talking differently isnt it?" he said with a short chucke. Placing his hands behind his head lightly he looked around the room again and nodded shortly. "Your right there cutie, loads of pretty people here." he said with a short sigh. He turned to see the pretty red head he spoke to come in with the cool teacher. "Hey gorgeous, over here!" he called with a grin. "I wasn't finished talking to you or cutie here back there, come on, I need to know at least two people here at the very least." he said in his soft but happy voice.
At the sound of the Helecopter, Kris's face fell a little and he mumbled quietly to himself. "Thats just completely rude. Everyone else had to come by road, but no, some person had to make an entrance." he said with a short roll of his eyes.

Rolling his eyes at his girlfriends hair pulling of the team 'problem child', Norrison waved her over to the seat next to him. As she sat he reached over to her, sliding his hand gently behind her head he snatched a handful of hair with a tug and pulled her into a kiss . "MMmm, you need to behave yourself when we're with all these chumps. We'll put her into a 'hurt locker' once we get some Danger Room time. Let's keep our dirty laundry in house Rose" he whispered.
When the side door opened and Shade slipped into the room Inflict was noticeably impressed that his whole team was present. He sat back and folded his arms waiting for Beast to give up the lecture. "This blue wind bag loves to hear himself speak." he said just loudly enough for his table to hear. They erupted into laughs and chuckles, even Stoney laughed if only for a second. It was tense in the room and they all liked the break from the stiffness.
Then the helicopter came over top of the school and touched down on the pad and Inflict slapped his hand down on the tabletop. His team whipped into action... every one of them getting set for combat.

'Sounds like trouble inbound' Shade thought as he was laughing at Inflict's joke. At the slap of his Team Captain's hand on the tabletop Stephen knew it was no longer a time for jokes. A moment to concentrate and he was no longer solid and flesh, but he was the Shade, his form that brought a level of stealth to his team. Dissipating and dispersing he slid down and over the floor to wrap himself at the edges of the room, while the action elements of his team did their thing.

Gina felt like the outsider here now among her team. She had changed over the break, but it had been coming for some time. The thing with this school and her team was less about it being her choice and more about it being the only thing she'd known for so long, and she had sort of been brainwashed into what the rest of the team still obviously believed, that they were better than the other mutants here at the school. Well maybe they were more practiced or less goofy, certainly Kelly Burns added so much to the Hellions simply buy not being a member. The fact was though that her time away from the school this past two weeks or so was great and opened her eyes to a broader picture of life. She didn't have to make herself bigger by making others smaller, put others down so she could stand over them and gloat.
Norrison's joke was funny though and it snapped her out of her funk, more than the hair pull by Rose. Gina tried to show no reaction to the pull of her hair, but it did hurt, that damn Machete knew just how to pull hair. She was a dirty fighter, she knew how to spit too and at least she didn't walk up and lean down and spit in her ear like she did that one time. It was the reason the cafeteria was now mostly safety glass. The two 'ladies' had gone at it right in the middle of lunch and nobody, not even any teachers could slow them down, not until they'd blown out the whole back of the mansion. It took their Team Leader, their true team leader The White Queen, showing the fire and fervor of her former villainous self to shock them both with mental strikes.
Then a sound brought her back from her daydreams, 'A Helicopter !?!' she thought and she was already moving to action when Inflict slapped his hand on the table. She ran over to center herself in the cafeteria and took a knee. She was "bait" or like she always said 'bait with a sting', she would play her part so her team could do their thing. Hearing Beast say hello though, she relaxed and stood up letting her guitar slide to her back she walked forward to take a look out the door.

As she sat next to him, rose felt Norrison's hand slide up and through her hair to tug her to him. Oh, how she loved it when he was rough. "Yeah, Danger Room" she whispered back to him. Then she went to kiss him one more time and he pulled her away, she hoped nobody saw it, but it hurt her inside. He had the power to hurt with a touch, but this wasn't from his mutant gift, no it was the gift of cruelty bestowed on him from parents who didn't love him and cultivated by a stone cold killer in the now pristine disguise of one Emma Frost. The White Queen was his mentor, she dealt in cruelty when they Hellions were younger and they had grown to understand that by being cruel they could earn her affection, or at least favorable attention from her.
At the sound of his joke at Beast's expense Machete laughed. She didn't dislike Beast, in fact she understood him and respected him too in a strange way, but it was more important to keep favor with her man then to make any stand for her personal beliefs. That was something she would teach to Decibel when they had a chance, the tumble in the cafeteria would be nothing compared to the upcoming chick fight, she would see to that. Gina would never again be pretty after that, respect would be learned and Rose would make it her goal to hurt the crusty punk.
Then when the helicopter touched down and Inflict gave his signal Rose took off running to the side door ready to attack or flank whatever might be making a frontal assault through the door that Beast stepped too. Hearing the blue furry doctor speak a warm welcome she dropped her guard and looked back to Inflict, who had stepped back into the whispy shadows that were their team mate the Shade. "Damn." she said softly as she walked back to sit at the team table again.

Chester had sat and was listening to the music that Decibel was playing, bobbing his head to show how he enjoyed it. He felt like saying something to Machete about her pulling his favorite team mate's hair, but he knew better. It was not a good idea to cross Norrison or his girl, bad shit would happen and they didn't seem to care. They'd play it off like an accident and Emma would turn a blind eye. He never quite understood why.
Not crossing Inflict was also a reason to laugh at his jokes. It was not the only reason why he laughed, the fact was that it was true. Beast did love to hear his own voice and words that didn't really make sense come out of his mouth. Beast was a dick for failing him and Chester couldn't think of a better thing to do than laugh at the big blue monkey. He never understood if he was so smart how come he never fixed himself, he had heard the rumors of how Beast had turned himself blue and furry.
The helicopter's approach didn't really catch him off guard since he'd heard it approaching when he was outside, but he reacted when Norrison signaled. Slapping his hands together above his head as he ran to the far side of the room, a cascade of rocks poured over him and added to his mass as his flesh erupted from within with more rocks. Growing in size and density he took his position across from Machete with Gina in the middle. All bet were off on any action though when that moldy hairball Beast called out a fine hello to Forge. It woulda been a nice capper to the evening if they'd had a little bit of rough stuff, but oh well.

"Oh holy crap! What's going on?" Chase asked his buddy who looked a little jaded and salty over the whole big gathering. "Is this what happened last time?" he asked the light from the helicopter and the sound of the props slicing through t he air above pushing his panic buttons.
Then the older kids all jumped up and ran around into some kind of practiced positions and he said "What does our team do? We are on the same team right? I wish I'd a gone to some practices with you now." he reached over and grabbed hold of Kyle's arm. Chase was noticeably shaking. Then as it occurred to everyone that the arrival was friendly he relaxed his grip, but didn't let go.

Tapping his foot impatiently, Onyx ran a hand through his light blonde hair and gripped it roughly, trying to distract himself from the frustration that was gnawing at his subconcious. These people didn't know what was going on while they sat twittering away and greeting each other, not one of them knows that almost half the school is in hell, and especially that Aideen is there, shouldn't they notice she isn't there?! She is a character enough that someone should at least notice how excitable the room is. The thoughts of frustration were going to tear the young German to pieces sooner rather than later, and his main hopes and concerns were that he could dontain his anger from the room long enough to get into LIMBO and wreak some vengance there. Especially on that idiot albino girl who's accident made all this happen. Bloody typical that a little girl was the cause of such a big mess.
Needless to say, Onyx saw a few others who looked more like the scene he himself was used to back home, but they were older, and he knew fine well by the way they held themselves that they thought themselves above all other students in the room. Then, a growing hum sounded the soon arrival of helicopter propellers. If this was another complication, Jasper swore he would be able to contain himself more than he was now. Yet, as the sound drew nearer and sounded as if it had landed at the school, he took on a more agressive look. His hands flew from his pockets and were positioned to match his now fighting position, half crouched and arms bent. Red crackling energy surging from his fingertips in anx. He didn't really give a crap if anyone tried to detain him, he was pissed off, frustrated and wanted to get a bloody move on. Giving another low growl, he stared out through the blackened out shades at the door, not even relaxing as he heard the furry man greet what seemed to be a friend, Jasper had yet to form an oppinion on him, Then and only then would he relax.

Veronika kept her angelic demeanor up with masterful ease. She smiled sweetly at anyone that sat near her or looked her way. Why did Papa have to send me to a school full of morons and convicts? I don't need a higher self-esteem boosting, though it certainly is one to be surrounded by half these people. At least there are few people that I like. Heather is a darling, and Onyx is very pleasant looking. Especially when he is angry. The Dazzler too of course. Who is that other red haired girl? Her hair is no where near as glossy and styled as mine. She looks like she works at Disney World or something. No one she look that ridiculously happy. Veronika's thought were interrupted by the sounds of a helicopter and blinding lights filling the lit up cafeteria.
Oh what now? Honestly even I am impatient for that cookie monster to tell these monkeys and hyenas the situation so we can go. If I have to be in this room with some of these people any longer than necessary, it will get harder to keep this act up. Doesn't mean I will slip, but I will need to concentrate more. She looked over at Heather with a concerned look. "What is going on now? Do helicopters land her often?" she asked before she spied Onyx looking fierce and angry. My he really does look good angry. The passion is quite appealing.

Kyle was watching as others were coming in. He didn't realize how many other students he didn't know, but as Katana walked past and spoke he looked to her and a bit of his smile returned. He pointed to a seat at the table by him and motioned her to join him.
The simple words from her had made Kyle feel a bit better about himself. He even looked to her again, seeing her a bit differently now. He wasn't sure if it was a good or bad thing, it just felt like he needed to look again.
Then he heard the helicopter noise and felt Chase grip his arm. Concerned that something was going to happen again, and that there was going to be some kind of attack, Kyle readied himself. Moments passed as things played out and finally he was able to relax.
He had never left his seat as someone was holding on to him still, looking to see who it was he chuckled a bit and said to Chase "Relax dude. Everything's cool." He was surprised how Chase reacted to the copter when just earlier he was running toward a fire. Kyle looked from Chase to his hand holding his arm and then to Chase again. "Ummmm, It's ok. Really. Beast seems to know the man."
Kyle lightly removed Chase's hand from his arm and looked around again. He didn't see any from his team that he recognized. Not Ember, Ripple, or Tempest. So at this point for all he knew it was Himself, Chase, And Katana. he thought for a meeting that everyone was supposed to be at there seemed to be a lot of people that he knew weren't here.
Looking over toward the Hellion's table he was a bit impressed how everyone there sat together and reacted together as a team.

Kelly saw HeartString bat those pretty blue eyes and his face broke out into a big grin. "Hey Ariel, c'mon Tracy wants me there, and I can't ignore one of my ladies for the other. No matter how hot you are," He said as he practically lifted her out of her seat to take her over to HeartString. He sat next to, GASP, the Dazzler! Kelly gazed at her starstruck for a minute. "Dazzler! You're here! Man you got hotter, I think. You were always hot. Hey, I have that bikini poster of you in my room!" he said dazed as he looked at the real life Dazzler that stood in front of him. He hadn't seen her since a couple of years back. Actually, the last time Kelly saw her he was dating Rose.
"So Dazzler," he said sliding in next to her and keeping his arm around Ariel, almost out of habit. "You know I'm a man now. Totally legal. You wanna see my room later?" He looked over at the two younger girls across from him and smiled big. "Damn. A lot happened since I was gone. You two can see my room in a couple of years. Wait..." Kelly looked over at Ariel sheepishly. "Ariel, I uhhh kinda got hungry and turned my room key into an Oreo. Do you still have that spare that Cyclops gave you from last time?" Before he turned his room key into a gummy key. He looked at the the redhead and the blonde chick that looked to be younger, but were already lookers.
Then his pleasant thoughts of being surrounded by hot chicks left at the sound of the helicopter and the bright lights the looked into the cafeteria. "Whoa huh? Did I finally win that Box top contest I entered and get a helicopter ride to Hershey Park?" he exclaimed with wide eyes before looking at Ariel. "Ariel if you don't have the key can I stay in your room?" His attention span was a bit short.

Katana had walked past Jumper quickly after whispering in his ear because she had not wanted him to see the concern in her eyes or...dare she admit it...the desire. As she moved away she saw Inflict leaning in and kissing some girl whom she recognized as having been with the Hellions outside. It made her burn with anger that he was sitting there acting like the king of the castle after what he had done to Jumper, but it also made her burn with something else, just a hint of jealousy. Not out of a desire to have Inflict...she wouldn't want to touch Inflict unless it was to bash in his skull, but because she wanted to be care about somebody the way the girl seemed to care about him, and even more to have it reciprocated. Guardian was nice. He desired her. He flirted with her. But while she liked him alright, she didn't really feel any fire for him...it was more he was nice to flirt with because it was nice to flirt with somebody...to be wanted by somebody. Something about Jumper made her actually want him particularly and even more so want him to be happy no matter what it took.
As she looked away from Inflict and the girl, she saw Jumper beckon her to sit down at the table with him. She paused for a moment. Dare she do it. She didn't know how he felt about her and the last thing she needed to do was embarass herself here. She hesitated. And was still hesitating when she heard a loud whirring sound above and the thud of something descending as the whole room broke into commotion. From what people were shouting it seemed that a helicopter was arriving and nobody was quite sure what its arrival meant. The craziness made her decision for her. She ran over to Jumper's table, oblivious to the rest of the pandemonium around her, and stood there, not ready to sit, but frozen in place as if in some crazy way she was going to protect him, as Jumper took the whole thing in stride with a cocky grin and poor Chase, yes, that was the kid's name, hung on to Jumper like a drowning man grasping at a floating board.
Looking down at Chase she echoed Jumper's words, "Don't worry. We've got quite a crowd down here...whatever it is we can handle it."
