Everyone had assembled in the courtyard out front of the school. The phoenix memorial statue stood center shining in the bright light of the afternoon. Children were milling about haphazzardly and running laughing and carrying on as Logan, standing there next to the statue noting the length of its shadow decided it was time to begin.
"ALRIGHT SHUT YER YAPS!!!" he hollered out, getting everyone's attention. "Time fer class, so get into your team formations...MOVE IT-MOVE IT..." he hollered looking very stern and yet grinning on the inside. He hadn't felt this good in a very very long time and he was going to have a fun and enjoyable class for everyone.
"Alright.." he began once all the children had found themselves formed up in their respective team positions. He had chosen the courtyard to begin class because it was the best location for everyone to gather, plus with the structure of the mansion right there it provided a perfect acoustical echo effect that made his voice easily heard by all. It was going to have to do for now as Decibel had left with Dazzler and Multiple Man so he didn't have her talents to amplify his voice any longer.
"...now that we have all found our spots lets start class!" he said as he walked around the statue at the center of the courtyard looking at each group in turn. The teams were relatively even a few students missing with excused absences and injury notes, but for the most part a great turn out on this warm spring day. "Lets warm up with some stretching and calistenics.." he said.
"I'm going to call out one member from each team to lead us all in these exercises, and then after we will be breaking up into smaller groups to play some team sports." he spoke loudly as he walked amongst the loosly lined up ranks of children. "Lets get some uniformity to these team ranks and square ourselves away. STRAIGHTEN UP!" he barked at the kids and watched as they lined up more precisely. The Paragons between the statue and the front door of the mansion and going clockwise around the courtyard were the Hellions, the New Mutants, the Corsairs and the Acolytes.

"C'mon guys line up, I don't feel like doing crazy laps today," Ian said to his team when they went to line up. After sleeping through his morning classes, he had yet to be fully awake and alert. Man I gotta tell Niki that we need to save some of our nights for the weekends. Cause if I keep getting this tired in the morning they're gonna know somethings up man, he thought glancing at Haven as a grin broke out on his face that he couldn't hide for the life of him. Eh, it's worth it.
"Ok Gavin man, stick to the end over there cause your wings almost knocked me to the ground last class," Ian said with a grin and slapped his friend on the shoulder, making his team spread out a bit so they all had room for the warm-ups. His team had it pretty together, even little Shimmer had found her place among them. "Lorelai babe, stand on the other side of Shimmer so your the first person on our team in the lineup. Niki come here next to me cause if Gavin knocks me over with his wings again I know I won't hurt you if I end up falling on you," he said to her with a wink. The past couple of months have been pretty happy for him. He chilled out a bit more and wasn't on the edge so much, but since the whole ordeal with LIMBO he had a new outlook on life.
Ian was pretty pumped, and in the mood for one awesome game of football. He had a blast in Wolverine's class, well only if the guy was in a good mood. When he wasn't, Ian hated all the running. "Alright dudes and dudettes, let's do this. Just keep up so we only gotta do it once and that's that," he said his team and was ready to get into the warm-ups.

Gavin laughed as he ran off to his place in the line just as he snapped Heather's bra strap to make her do that adorable annoyed look. He laid off a little through the first half of lunch and then threw his popcorn at her. "Yea yea, I'm cool Ian. I'll try not to hit you this time but try not to stand up so fast. When we stretch, I gotta stretch my wings too," he said with a laugh, but moving down a bit so his 10ft wings wouldn't hit anyone as easily.
Gavin liked this class, mainly cause he could play some sport and sort of socialize with some people. Plus it gave him a chance to pursue his favorite hobby of bothering Heather. Something about that girl was just so much fun to bother, even if she was a close friend. She would get so mad and go into this cute little fit and then try and attack him back or get him back somehow. Gavin got a kick out of it. He was always careful to not seriously hurt her, cause thats just not cool, but bothering her here and there was just too funny to pass up.
"Ok watch your head man, and I'm warning you ahead of time to not grab my wings again," Gavin said and moved out to get ready to begin the warm-ups. He was looking forward to a fun game of basketball and was also hoping warm-ups would go smoothly.

"Ugh, Brock can you move down already! You stepped on my new shoes twice and I swear I will hurt you if you do it again!" Rose cried and pushed him over so she could have room for herself. She dusted off her cute workout clothes and leaned down to rub some dirt off her new sneakers. Rose looked under her arm as she bent down and winked at Inflict, wiggling her ass a little just for him.
"We're playing sports not in the army. I don't get why I have to get all sweaty and warm up. God these kids better not slow us down again," she complained and stretched her arms over her head. "You better get on the end of our line, you made the goody Corsairs all mad, bad Brock," Rose said with a fake pout mocking the Corsair by saying their names in a babyish voice.
The Hellions were extremely tight and had few secrets, and out of all of them Brock seemed to have the least shame. Rose was pretty mad when she heard the story, the fact that all the goody two-shoes Corsairs all ganged up on him and then that prude boobs-for-brains wouldn't heal him cause she felt it was wrong. Boo-freaking-hoo. "Baby, can you move over just a little bit please," she asked her boyfriend with a bat of her eyelashes and blowing him a kiss.

Lorelai walked out with the rest of her team, this time dressed in black sweatpants and one of her older shirts to move around easier. She was ready for gym and to focus, having eaten food and skated before that. When Ian told everyone to line up she heard him address her and walked past him wordlessly to her usual spot next to Shimmer. She was still a bit unresolved with him even after two months, and for it she was cold around him. What annoys me is how quickly he moved on to that harlot, like he was just waiting to freak around with her. And so obvious too, so much for caring and liking me at all, eh? He probably has no idea I still like him a little, and it’s not fair. Ending it even when I didn’t want to still didn’t make things better. Whatever.
Cracking her neck on both sides, she smirked as Gavin snapped Heather’s bra. Aside from her inner qualms with Ian and his girl toy, Lorelai had no issues with the rest of the team. She got along well with all of them and she liked having them as teammates. “Gavin leave her alone, snapping her bra is just not cool,” she told him with a laugh as she waited for someone to get hit by his wings. It was always funny to her since she was always out of the way of it and watched when to duck. I sort of hope he hits Ian, that'd be very funny, she thought with a hint of chagrin.
She turned to Torri and grinned. “Gonna give yourself some strong long legs so it’s easy for you when running?” she asked, joking around and giving her a little nudge. Since Torri went back to her real form, Lorelai couldn’t help awing at her because she was so cute, and teasing a little since it seemed she was getting better at shifting. While she waited for an answer she stretched her legs, remembering to stop talking soon so she could focus on the warm up when it would start.

After everything that happened in drama class, Heather was glad she could finally relax and work out a bit. Over the past two months she got back in shape and was able to learn more and more about her powers and flexibility. Plus thanks to her martial arts training, Heather was able to turn quickly and punch Gavin in the back as he ran past her. He got her bra good, and as he predicted she had the "cute angry face"; eyes narrowed and lips pursed. She continued to glare at him for several seconds before beginning to stretch herself.
Having Gavin around was a great thing for Heather. The two of them just couldn't stop bothering each other (even though most of the bothering commenced from Gavin). Heather was just glad to have him as her close friend. She actually considered him her best guy friend since Veronika was THE best friend on the girls side. Moving on, Gavin was there for her when problems with her mother continued and she was more than happy for that. It actually brought them closer together as friends. Now they pick and bully at one another just like they were five. The ironic thing was, it worked; it was them.
Looking at her fellow teammates, Heather was ready for another grueling day with Wolverine's gym class. "Ok guys, let's show 'em what we've got," she said cheerfully while bending forward to stretch her calves.

"Burns, I'm in no mood today for your freak-ups. Get through one, just one class without turning anything into food or making obnoxious comments. And lay off my girl," Mason said and smacked his friend in the back of the head. He sent a hard glare in Brock's direction as his team got into formation. Whenever they did anything as a team, Mason didn't play around. He wanted perfect form and order and all of them to do their workouts accordingly. Even Burns shaped up eventually, after a couple of black eyes from Mason in one of their legendary 'fights', which were more like wrestling matches that ended with Burns clutching his eye.
Man I hope Fox is okay. If Van Alstyne's joining in Football, I'm tackling him extra hard for her. It'll have to do since I'm not supposed to have my guns on me now, he thought with a smirk. Mason always had a gun on him, even the small six shooter he had safely tucked into his shoe, just in case.
He nodded at his team as the all got into formation and were ready to get Wolverine's killer warm-ups done and over with. Mason was very much in the mood for a game of football after the day he had and needed another way to take out some stress over everything. He placed a hand on Tracy's back and moved her over from him enough so she there wouldn't be a chance he'd hit her by accident with the warm up.

"Aw man my belly's still full of burgers!" Chase said as he got into the formation of the Paragons and rubbed his tummy. "Hell Ripple, how the shit can I see past your fat ass?" he said as he looked at her. She stood in front of him and was almost as skinny as Decay, but he knew she was far more sensitive, and he loved to play on that.
"Damn is Kyle still out? I miss that dude." He said, still worried about his room mate. He knew he'd be back to full combat training status soon, at least he hoped, and he was careful to not let too much slip out about how much he missed his one time crush. "This sucks man, I mean we gotta line up and all every time with this guy- what the hell?"
Chase didn't hate working out, he loved it really. His sports were swimming and basketball, with some running too. He had the long limbs and quick twitch muscles so sprinting and fast bursts were his thing. He could never be as fast as Kyle though and he did worry about the guy even though he sorta had his eye on the little guy Kevin lately. There was something about the little sweet thang that made his heart go pitter-pat and he didn't really know why. Kevin wasn't traditionally his type, but since the kid had started lifting and working out with Diesel- who was freakin' HOT, Chase had taken notice.
"You disgust me with all that flabby fat ass Lian, what the hell!?!" chase tease to take his mind off of the guys he saw arrayed all around him. "You and Sky need to go on a diet, like now!" he said and reached up to pull a handful of Lian's hair playfully while laughing.

Lurai had been up for hours, rising with the morning sun and had taken a nice long run in the maze, working on her agility, coming out of the maze to run laps around Breakstone Lake. By now as she came to stand with her team she was already warmed up and ready to go, but she didn't mind doing some more warming up. Truth be told while Wolverine sometimes ran his classes hard she liked them, as they forced her to challenge herself and get along with her team and others. She had become more socially smart, but she was still rather shy in actually dealing with people in general. Lurai still preferred going off by herself and doing her own thing rather than being in a large group of people.
Her tail wagged as she approached Heather with a small smile. "Hello Heather, good afternoon. And don't worry, we will show them," she said, her little smile turning into a smirk as she jogged in place to keep moving. Her sensitive ears picked up different conversations here and there around the teams, but she ignored them and thought about running. Running was such a fun thing to do, at least for her.

Riker slid in next to Heather and joined in with the orders on their team. "Alright mates, ye heard the lady. Onyx, careful with your wings mate. Alex go stand there next to him, gotta protect the pretty lasses from getting hit eh?" he said with a wink to the ladies that he was surrounded by. He'd been looking forward to this class all day, in the mood for a good game of basketball after the short soccer game and search of Iceman's watch, which he successfully found. Wolverine's class was one of his favorite cause it was a good way to waste some of the crazy energy he had.
"Alright, everyone lemme know how your all doing with this. I don't know about you mates, but I be in the mood for a good game of basketball. So let's get these over with. Easy it does it ya'll," Riker said, taking his time to inspect the girls on his team, because he was the type to do so whenever he could. Heather was by far his favorite to look over on the team, though he throughly enjoyed giving looking over the other girls as well.

Chester lined up with his Team, knowing his place and respecting Wolverine for being one hard, but fair man. He looked around at all the junior teams as they were so very undisciplined and he knew that never once even had the Hellions ever behaved like that. They knew what they were supposed to do and even though they might not love it they did it and always had, they knew all about consequences. Emma made sure to school them on that.
Stoney had been a bit sad since saying goodbye to Gina, but in a way it was a relief since he didn't have to feel the constant pressure of trying to talk with her, or the anxiety of seeing her, or the jealousy of seeing her with her newest piece, TrueSpirit. He hated that guy for just being there, not that he hated him really but a part of him did. He was actually hoping the Hellions would be going up against the Corsairs in some sport, maybe football, so he could really put a hurt on that guy. He had tasted the fruit of the woman he loved, (or so he thought) and Chesty was not too fond of the knowledge of that fact.
He was already tired of the crap from the younger kids and just wanted to begin already. If he had been one to talk he would have told them all to shut up and just get to it. However, chester was not at all like that and just stood patiently by and waited for the next order of business. Glancing over at Brock and Norrison he felt a sense of superiority and knew his team would dominate all in whatever they had to do. A twist of a grin climbed it's way up onto his face and Stoney looked over at the Corsairs to see the rival team as they readied themselves as well. It would be a good class, that much he knew.

Alex arrived to Wolverines class with a half tank of energy. Oh man Coffee really has a lot of enthusiasm when it comes to working out. I should have left that workout for tomorrow por que ahora I need to get through this. He heard what Heather said to the team when he got there.
"Yea yea, we'll show them," Alex said weakly, "How's everyone today?"
When Riker came into the picture couldn't help but have a face of disgust and suck his teeth. Alex never liked his attitude but he was cool with his whole wolfness thing. Alex was one for teamwork and tried to be on a friendly level with all his teammates. He saw Rikers sister come and he waved and said hi. He went to his position next to Onyx and playfully elbowed him.
"Hey Japsis how was your morning? Get to finish that letter of yours?"
He looked around the court yard and the group next to him were the Corsairs and at the head of them was Mason who had put him in a sour mood earlier. He turned away from them and looked toward the Paragons and spotted out some of his friends over there.
Alex got ready for Wolverines warm ups hoping he would do fine even though he had warmed up enough through the day. He took an energy bar from out his pocket and ate it hoping it would replenish some energy.

Ariel stood with her team in her place, her arms crossed over her chest as she watched the younger teams form up like they were supposed to. She had gone back to the gym and punched the bag some more and kicked it as well, just for something to hit. Since the morning practice she had been in a sour mood and she still was, and it would help her warming up in this class. Her game face was on as she would be working with her team as a team, her cool demeanor toned down for a sense of seriousness that she took on in cases like these.
She didn’t bother giving the Hellions a glance, instead she focused on the Phoenix statue in the center of the courtyard and just breathed in the spring air. After a couple of minutes she started stretching and getting ready to warm up. “Let’s just get this over with,” she muttered, hoping that one of the activities they would do included her punching someone- preferably one of the Hellions- out.

Brock smirked darkly when he saw the looks the Corsairs were throwing him. "Ooooo yea, I would just hate to make them even more mad at me. Why can't we all just get along huh? And be one big happy family?" he said the last part in a slightly teary voice before he let out a dark laugh. "Like I give a shit if they like me or not. Oh no, what a loss. I am truly heartbroken. I'm the one who should be mad anyways. I was so nice and close to the hot piece of ass and I get slashed without getting a chance to finish what I know she wants. Why it just makes me want to cry at what could have been. I coulda had a nice steamy shower with the Hot piece of Corsair ass but some people are just too touchy. Know what I'm saying Inflict? These birds just find all sorts of new ways to play hard-to-get," Brock said loudly, making sure the Corsairs could clearly hear every word he said.
He had been amused during Cyclops' little freak out death threat. The guy looked hilarious when he was mad. Brock was quite proud of himself that he made it all the way to the elevator before he burst out in laughter to the point where he had tears coming down his face. He didn't hesitate telling Inflict, who he shared a bathroom with, all about it. He bragged it all, quite proud of himself at the stir that he stood up. Just like I told them, no little verbal command is gonna stop me. I'll keep my distance when I'm around the people in that room, and maybe some of the teachers if I don't feel like getting yelled at. I'm gonna have that hot bird sooner or later. Rather it be sooner since come on she's just to hot to let go on for so long. I'll give it to her exactly how she wants it, with all that rough play I'll give it to her all she wants, he thought as his smirk grew darker at them images that played in his head.
"Aw and look guys how sad. The Fire bird is missing class cause she just can't be around me anymore. She just can't stand this little dance we're doing, needs to stay away from me to keep from jumping me and giving me the ride of a lifetime," Brock said in a loud mocking teary voice, not giving a shit that the younger teams heard him and elbowed Stoney with a smirk on his face. Looking at the Corsairs darkly as he got into formation, keeping the same smirk on his face when he looked towards Wolverine. That's right you hairy old man, I'm gonna have your star student all to myself and none of you X-Fags can do shit about it, Brock thought chuckling under his breath.

A sense of pride coming over her as she heard what Mason had said about her, and feeling the truth of his conviction in his emotion she was re assured that he was more than in love with her. She and Ironclad had been true to their word though and taken things slowly. Never going too far Tracy was ever vigilant to not find herself feeling her own emotions and those of Mason combining in her heart. One emotional footprint was more than enough to deal with and she smiled feeling how she felt about what the man she loved had said.
With a shake of her head at the lengths that were needed to go to in order to keep their team-mate in line Tracy looked to her left to see her best friend Ariel and beyond her was Mato the man with an insight into spirits much like she had into emotions. "Lets get ready gang." she said to the team just as a way to ease what Mason had said and also as a way to tell herself to snap out of her own deep thoughts.
