He laughed watching her light up and seem to grow intense. She seemed to focus when a cghallenge was infront of her. As he was the opposite, He relaxed and let things flow through him. Perhaps they could make a good team. "Hey, Im sure we can all have some fun hot stuff." He winked and nodded.
Reaching up and running his hand through his hair softly. Then he stretched and looked ot Nightcrawler for any last minute directions.

Cyclops rushed out into the bright light of the desert and turned around. As the wind whipped sand past his face he hollered over it's whistle "Team leaders - take charge of your people and let's get that switch." He rushed off to the side to allow the young students, and their none to much older teachers, to fulfill their mission. He would help when he felt it prudent, but otherwise felt he must maintain the roll of on-site observer.

"Follow me!' Nightcrawler rushed forward into the environment of the Danger Room. Careful as he went, though he stepped quickly and lightly on his oddly formed three toed feet.
"Ve vill make for zhat dune zhere!" He yelled pointing ahead and to the right. "Und vatch your steps Paragons!"

Looking to where Nightcrawler pointed he turned and moved into the room, The heat blasting against his face already causing him to sweat. He leaped quickly and moved ot teleport to the dune. Keeping his guard up as he landed and watchign his team to see if they would need him.

Seeing Kurt lead his Paragon team to the right Shadowkat spoke before she moved out of the staging area "They're going right so we go left- no reason really just a hunch. The place is loaded with traps, so be ready! C'mon..." she ran out into the Danger Room to the left picking her way in a slight zigzag patern towards a nearby sand dune.

Aideen followed Nightcrawler and swiftly walked to the area he pointed. She moved quickly and gracefully as her gymnast body threaded lightly on the ground. She was on alert at all time, the heat fueling her body and the flames grew hotter and brighter on her arms.
She saw Jumper teleport to the area and she quickly moved to catch up with him as a small belt of flames moved around her waist.

Nightcrawler, seeing his team rush headlong felt a sense of pride, but then... "Ember- look out !!!" He called for her wanting to teleport but it was already too late.

Stepping on an unseen trigger Ember felt the strange sensation of a sinking underfoot and the click as the trigger hit bottom sent a chill up her otherwise hot spine.
THE GROUND ERUPTS BEFORE YOU EMBER AND THE SAND ITSELF FORMS INTO A HUMANOID FORM SLOWLY AT FIRST, BUT THE UNUSUAL APPEARANCE OF THIS CAUSES A MOMENT OF HESITATION. THE SAND CREATURE SWIPES AN ARM AT YOU -
BEFORE THE REST OF YOU SAND BEGINS TO FORM UP INTO GOLUMS AS WELL.

From his vantage point Kurt had seen the slight mound of the trigger and hoped it was nothing, but as he observed her step down on it he knew it was a terribly bad thing indeed.
Looking back to make sure Ripple was alright he hoped Ember would be able to hold out for a moment more.

Aideen heard Nightcrawler scream in warning just as the ground started to move in front of her and the ground erupted to form an odd human like sand form. Aideen looked at it wide eyed but back up slowly, almost unconsciously took a step back. Her arms still lit up brightly in flames. Her eyes narrowed as the creature swiped his arm at her. Coming back into her adrenaline high, Aideen took her gymnastic skills to practice. Jumping up and flipping away from its reach.
Using all her concentration, she shot a stream of fire from her arms at the creature, her large dark eyes narrowed in concentration.

Seeing Ember was able to react to the thing swiping at her, and then noticing one emerging in front of him. He waited a moment to let it form facing him and just as it took shape he leaped away from it. Only to teleport behind it trying to soulder block its knees from behind.

"Vonderful mine Paragons!" Nightcrawler watched as Ember and then Jumper began to deal with the threats presented. He had his own sand~golum to deal with. Moving lightning fast he did a split dropping down to the sand beneath him as the creature swiped for his head.
Swinging his entire body around on the baking hot sand he whipped his legs into the creatures lower portion hoping it would be sand all the way through. His uncanny movement afforded him some extreme torque, damaging to the creature, severing it from the desert and toppling it down to virtually splash onto the sand before him. Looking around he took stock of his team.

Heather followed Shadowkat toward the left of the Danger Room. As they ran over the dunes of sand, she felt a strange, faint presence beneath her. She didn't understand what it was and frankly didn't care, since she was scared out of her mind. She was in the middle of a holographic dessert with no way to protect herself.
As she followed, she watched Nightcrawler and the rest of the Paragons head to the right. She heard Nightcrawler scream and looked immediately that way. A giant sand golom appeared from the ground beneath them. Her heart raced faster and faster as she saw the blows it attempted to make on the Paragon team. Seeing Aideen move so quickly and gracefully, made her feel a pang of envy. She had the body of a model and the elegance of a swan, plus she could use her powers. Heather looked to Shadowkat, her eyes filled with fear and anger. She began to regret coming into the room. What was she supposed to do? Dodge sand monsters the entire time?

Lian saw Aideen fending off the huge sand monsters. She was mercifully free of her own sand creatures, but she knew she had to help her team-mates. She thought they seemed to be doing ok by themselves, but the whole point of being part of a team was to chip in and help. She joined them against the creatures. She didn't know what to do, didn't know what help she could be, so she contented herself with taking the occasional swipe at the creatures until one came close enough for her to fight properly. She aimed a high kick at the head of one of the creatures; it disintegrated but immediately re-formed and seemed entirely unfazed. She didn't see what use her powers would be against these creatures, even if she could get them to work. What help would being able to go through the sand creatures be?

THE SAND GOLUMS ARE FORMED IN FRONT OF EACH OF THE TWO TEAMS ACTIVELY PARTICIPATING. NIGHTCRAWLER HAS SEEMINGLY DISPATCHED HIS. RIPPLE IS NOW DOUBLE-TEAMING THE ONE JUMPER WAS FIGHTING AND THE GOLUM MEANT FOR HER IS MOVING IN ON EMBER.
BEFORE SHADOWKAT'S NEW MUTANTS STAND TWO FULLY FORMED GOLUMS AND A THIRD FORMING NOW.
