In the hall outside the Rec-Room...
Haven had come inside with Diesel as he seemed to be enamored with the guy who had shown up , or rather the guys who had shown up with the new girl. She didn't watch the news or read newspapers often so she wasn't as aware of the 'famous mutants' as Ian was. She noted his excitement over the guy and looked at the girl who he had brought with him. She seemed as plain and ordinary as anyone, but she knew better, so she kept her forcefield up until they were all inside and the girl had been taken into the rec-room by Cyclops.
"Ian." Niki said softly as she dropped her shield and reached out to touch him with her hand. It was a new thing for her to be able to touch other people and she really liked touching him quite a bit. "I don't think I'm gonna go back in there." she said as she caught sight of Lorelai and Kevin down the hallway a bit out of the corner of her eye. She reached up and tucked a piece of Ian's hair behind his ear and let her fingers dawdle on his earlobe before she asked him "You want to go for a walk with me?"
She smiled at him slightly as she hoped for him to say he would. She wasn't tired, and even though she was a little hungry she didn't want to go back into the room full of newbies and losers, she didn't like them much not even a little. "I was thinking maybe we could talk some more." she said as her hand slipped away from his ear.

Ian was busy looking after Multiple Man, cause well come on its Multiple Man, the guy who was able to hold down the entire X-Corporation building all on his own. He was shaken out of the start struck sort of state when he felt Haven's hand on his ear, moving a piece of his shaggy hair out of his face. "Uh yea... sure babe we can go on a walk. Wanna stop by the kitchen then and get something for the walk? Cause to be honest I'm still kinda hungry. We don't have to though," he said debating in his head on whether or not he was hungry enough to get food.
"Eh Screw it. Come on babe, let's go on a walk around the mansion. If we really get hungry we can stop in from the kitchen from outside. Hey maybe we can make a bonfire outside. Thinks Spitfire is around? She's like a human lighter. Then we can roast marshmallows. Or hot dogs," Ian listed off, putting a friendly arm around her and leading her back outside. "But we talk first of course, cause that's who we roll and all," he added with a wink to her as they stepped back outside.

Looking at Kelly Burns one was taken hold of by an intense urge to laugh, he had that look about him. Emma Frost, however, was immune to his charms. "No Kelly you may not keep the rest of the money. You will give it to Cyclops and that is not the end of this. As I understand it you have stolen one hundred and seventy dollars...I would hope you would not steal from your parents, nor from this institution but the fact is that you have and I'm sure your team will be more than disappointed in you." She looked at him with sorrow filled eyes as she said "Kelly, I thought we took great pains to help you here, to let you develop into a fine young man. Scott will be quite upset to find out what you have failed to do with regard to your powers as well as hearing about your overt sexual attitude and now this... stealing. As for my kitchen wall, I am completely through with you turning parts of this building into food. You need to learn some control and I will be adding your name to the list of those on punishment duties. Don't think I have a shortage of things for you to do." Emma was beside herself with this young man. She wanted to slap him across his face for all he had just told her and shown himself to be, but she was a lady and would let her rule of not administering punishment tonight stand. She saw as well as heard Scott through their telepathic link and stepped away from Kelly with a short "Excuse me" as she left him standing there. Walking up to Jamie and his duplicate along with the girl he had brought from Muir Island. "Hello darling." she said as she stopped right in front of Ricki "Welcome, you must be Ricki. Thank you Jamies, both of you...or as many as it took" she said with a wink to both of them having taken a glance into the minds of Jamie Madrox, with permission of course, seeing the events of how he...or they... had collected this girl up and learning of her mutant ability of elasticity. "So, you have the ability to ...hold on.." Emma placed a hand on the young girls shoulder and said loudly "Alright everybody this is the other new arrival we were expecting. Her name is Ricki and she is from Florida, she's come to us the long way around from England, she has the mutant gift of elasticity much like Mr Fantastic of the famed Fantastic Four...Ricki we all get code-names here, it's vital for training and the mindset we need you to have, plus it is a wonderful way to start fresh...a nice welcome gift too... Everyone let's welcome Ricki who we'll be calling 'Taffy', and Colossus she's also with you." turning to look at the girl she said "Hope you like it, I think it suits you...sweet and stretchy." She turned to hug Jamie and Jamie and then talk some more with everyone who was gathered there. She wrapped her arms around Scott, finally as the night was winding down and the pizza was vanishing and one by one and in small groups the children and young adults saw themselves to bed or to walking around the grounds. Everyone knew 'Lights-Out' was at 10pm but this evening, after such a wild week and all that had happened, Emma and Scott would turn a blind eye...or three...to anyone who wanted to stay up a bit later. It was great to be home and tomorrow would be the last full day off before classes began, but it was not going to be a day of frivolity, it would be a full day though. There would be an Orientation meeting in the morning and funeral services for the two students who had lost their lives in Limbo. Marker stones would be placed in the memorial garden to remember them and it would be a solemn afternoon. Following that the task of disciplinary actions to be taken on those students who had seen their way to earning it and the Hellions would be paying in sweat and blood in the Danger Room for Brock's late return. Beast had his equipment to install and track down. Forge would no doubt help him. Bobby Drake would need to be contacted to return to his specialized teaching duties. Then there was the kitchen, oh lord the kitchen.....It would indeed be a full day..... ......... End of Chapter One ! ((well played everyone, the next threads posted will be in the time period 2 months from this point. figure early March, still a chill in the air, but spring is upon us))
