Aideen listened to Beast's evaluation of her and was grateful it was nothing worse than that, though it still hurt to move. She watched him go over to Aqua and she rolled her eyes. A small head injury and she barely did anything throughout the whole test. Aideen looked at the door and back at Beast. "Sir may I go now?" she asked anxious to get going. The journey to her room was going to be hell. She was barely able to move but it would be a good test. She could maybe get that hot bath that Beast recommended.

"Yes, actually. Will you be able? You can lay there as long as you'd like, or I could buzz for some assistance." Beast offered as he began to scan Aqua.

Aideen thought for a moment about how much she was willing to lower her pride today. She already let Nightcrawler carry her but that wasn't too bad. Still she felt so utterly useless feeling like she can't get up a couple of flights of stairs. No Aideen was strong and went through worse. She refused to burden anyone.
Aideen nodded to Jumper and slid off the bed, resisting an eye roll at Aqua. What a drama queen. She took a couple of steps, refusing to wince at the pain she felt and tried her best to keep her face neutral. "I'm fine, thank you," she said politely as she walked toward the door slowly and carefully, not wanting to add to her pain.

After Heather regained strength and her dizzy spell dissolved away, she sat back on the bed for Beast her scan her. Her cut was throbbing less now, however her energy was still very low. She was happy at least, that Aideen was ok and her rips weren't broken or fractured.
Not noticing Aideen's attitude toward her, Heather looked at the scan as Beast passed it over her body. She looked to Jumper and smiled. "How you doing over there man?" she asked as she tucked a strand of her red and blonde hair behind her ear.

He smiled hearing Ember was going ot be ok, and it was nothing serious. He winked ot her as she nooded and left. He was still stretched out on the bed and had his hands tucked up behind his head.
urning to Aqua he shrugged a bit, but still kept the smile on his lips. "Im fine. Beast hasnt looked at me yet so it cant be anythign serious, Just a massive headache. Ill live, but Im not allowed to teleport for now. And I am very hungry." He laughed a bit then winced as his head throbbed more. "So how are you holding up?"

Lian had left the infirmary as she didn't need to be checked, but now she came back in. 'Sorry, I just left my jacket behind and I came back to fetch it' Picking up her jacket, she made as if to leave again, but just paused to smile at Jumper as she heard him laugh.

Looking over as she popped back in and smiling towards her. "So you did it huh? You managed to save my ass and then flip the switch. I think you brought our team the victory. Now I dont want to hear that useless talk again. Remember we are going to take on the world some day." Winking as he laid his head back.

'Ohh whatever' Lian said, privately thinking that she hadn't really done much to help and anyway, Jumper had already flipped one of the switches before she did. 'I don't know about bringing the victory anyway' she shrugged, 'Anyone else would have pulled that switch if they'd been in my position'

"You know, you make it real hard to give you a compliment Ripple. But forget the switches then, You are the one that was able to get me out of those tentacles and pull me to saftey. So are you gonna come over here and give me a hug or what. Dont make me break the rules again and get out of this comfy bed." He grinned and winked again. It was the usual Jumper attitude.

Lian couldn't help smiling then. 'I don't mean to make it hard,' she said plaintively, 'If you don't criticise yourself, you never improve' She went over to him and sat down on the bed. 'How could I possible make you get up of your comfy bed' she said, hugging him.

Hugging her lightly, as he was very sore from smacking into the force field. He layed back again and drank some water. "Good, cause I really didnt want to get up and have ot chase you down. And you can criticise yourself, but please accept the thank you I gave you." He looked around again and could only wonder what Beast was talking about, when he said there was some kind of readings about his powers. "I cant wait to get out of here"

Lian moved so that she wouldn't hurt him. 'I accept it' she told him. She smiled. 'I already got out, I just had to come back to collect my jacket' she waved the jacket at him. She would stick around for a bit to talk now that she was here though.

"Your jacket huh? Im sure you left yoru jacket here so you would have to come back and see me. " Grinning and winking again. Reaching up and rubbing his temple trying to get the headache to subside a bit. "Hey if you go out and happen to wander past the kitchen, could you pocket me a snack bar or something. Im starving." Even after the events that happened and getting hurt and knocked out, he still acted like himself. As if nothign ever happened. Nightcrawler was right, he lacked focus.

"Well, well, well..you appear to be fine, certainly a bit dehydrated. Aside from the head contusion, merely some overworked muscles..." He picked his head up and looked over the scanner at Aqua saying "I mean no offense, but how often do you exercise? It might be a good idea to get in a bit more when you can, I've got a feeling Ms. Frost is intending to push everyone to their fullest."
He stepped around the scanner and over to the table beside her bed to apply some alcohol to a cotton swab. he gently cleaned he wound as he spoke "It seems she was a bit rough on you all today, or maybe I'm not perceiving things clearly...but I noticed the look on your face earlier as she spoke to the group. Recently we've lost some dear friends, so I for one am glad she intends to get you children ready for what you will undoubtedly face out there."
Her reached to the table again and brought back a small spray canister "This is wonderful stuff, a washable elastin with two parts- uh...nevermind the technical ...we call it 'spray stitch' and it's far superior to stitches because it prevents scarring. Close your eyes and don't inhale..." he shook the tiny spray bottle "..Okay, hold still." The cold spay tightened up on her skin as it dried quickly.
"All done- you can go. Make sure you drink plenty of fluids Aqua...stay hydrated." He grinned at her, with his fangs all showing he was a bit frightening.

Heather looked to Jumper. "I'll be alright. The head cut isn't that bad. I just drained all my energy from finally using my powers." She looked up as Beast continued to scan her. She then giggled as Lian and Jumper continued to flirt. He moves on quick, she thought to herself.
As Beast asked her questions she winced. "I don't work out at all really. I just eat whatever. I'm not a calorie counting kind of girl." She sneared at the thought of her being a stupid New York heiress who was stick skinny and bulimic. It was a common stereotype living in the city. She then looked to her feet as Beast asked her about her feelings toward Ms. Frost. "She can be kind of tough," she admitted. "But I'm sure it is all for the best." She couldn't really believe that. They just arrived at the Xavier Mansion, and already they were being challenged when some, including her, didn't even know how to use their powers. Luckily, Ms. Frost was kind enough to help her trigger them.
She shook the thoughts away and stood still as Beast began to apply the cold substance on her cut. It was freezing and she bit her lip as not to move. When it was all over, she smiled as she was now allowed to head back to her room. She hopped off the bed and nodded. "Ok, I promise." She looked to Jumper and Lian. "I'll see you guys later." Heather walked out of the Med Lab and headed straight for her room. She desperately needed a shower and couldn't wait to finish reading her book and relax.
