Aaron came out of his bedroom with a pair of blue jeans and a dark blue Nirvana tee on along with a ratty pair of black converse hightops tied loosly and walked down the stairs, avoiding the holes that were burnt through by that annoying redhaired female from the attack on the mansion. "Hey Victoria." He said pulling down the headphones from his ears as he saw Victoria and Rogue. "I just got a quick question to ask then I'll leave you girls to your conversation. Whats the best fast food place to grab a good burger around here?"

"Hey Aaron," said Victoria, giving a small wave as the blond-haired boy chanced his way down the stairs. For the most part, he seemed completely unfazed by the current state of the mansion and was already back into his habit of asking where the nearest good food local was. She racked her brain momentarily before, visually scoping out what she had seen of the town before answering.
"Hmm," she started, suddenly realizing she hadn't been to any food stops in the area. "There's a place just about a half a mile away," she shrugged, "it's called 'Gut Bomb's' or something. I've never been there so check it out only if you're feeling daring."

Pippin stood before the door to the Professor's office. She knocked timidly on the door. I hope he's in there, otherwise I'll have to search the mansion for him. I'll never find him that way. Her nerves hadn't gotten better. If anything, she was more nervous now than before. Her heart was racing. Why does this have to be so terrifying? She wished she wouldn't be quite so jumpy. Pippin glanced around, spotting something odd out of the corner of her eyes. If she had something sufficiently hard to hit her head on, she would've done it. What she saw happened to be her own hand, which in turn happened to be quite sheer. She had turned herself half-invisible.

Aaron looked thoughtful for a moment when she mentioned the Gut Bomb. "Sounds interesting. Thanks dollface." He said with a pat on Victoria's shoulder. He waved to the two girls before putting his headphones back on and walking outside and down the driveway.

Rogue started to mention the whole handshake thing, but just then a blonde guy, Victoria called Aaron, came downstairs. He asked her where a good food place was and she refered him to the Gut Bomb. He thanked her, called her dollface, and left. She turned to Victoria and riased her eyebrows. "Dollface, huh? He seems... interestin'...."
She grinned slightly and rolled her eyes, then went back to the conversation. Victoria'd said something about the Brotherhood wanting to proove themselves worthy to get genetically advanced or something on Asteroid M. M? As in Magneto? She decided to ask. "Anyway, back to our conversation. You said they were trying to get to Asteroid M, right? Did the M happen to stand for Mageto? If it did, that'd explain a whole lot."

From inside his office, Professor Xavier heard the soft knock against his offic door. A student, no doubt, wanted to have a word with him. "Come in Miss. Wilde," he said, loud enough for her to hear through the wall and empty space of his vast office, but still mataining his even, patriarchal tone. ================================== "No problem puddin'," said Victoria, half-laughing as she returned Aaron's nickname with one of her own. Smiling off the encounter, her face went serious again as Rouge brought back up their previous conversation.
"Yeah," she said, nodding. "M for Magneto, I guess. Why? What else do you know about him?" Leaning against the a wall she waited for a responce.================================== "Is no one gonna answer that damn door?" asked Lance outloud, surprised by the fact that they acutally had a door bell. Looking around, he noted everyone was to caught up in their own mundane lives to notice. Or care, for that matter. So, re-crossing the living room, Lance took it upon himself to answer the door for whatever poor sap was on the other side.
Half expecting it to be Scott, he opened the door sharply and peared outside. Surprisingly, it was not Scott Summer's, but another male of roughly the same age. He cocked and eyebrow and scowled. Yet another one of Mystique's recruits, he guessed.

"Hey there. This must be the Brotherhood place. Some woman named Mystique told me to come here," David said, saving any actual introductions for later. He didn't know who this guy in front of him was, but he could probably assume that he lived here. Of course, judging by the state of the male's clothing, he could easily have been living on the streets like David.
"So, you gonna stand there scowling all day, or are you going to let me in?" David said, maintaining his no-nonsense attitude. When he was performing his "magic" tricks, he tended to smile and joke, as it drew the crowd in, but otherwise, he didn't mince words.

That was one of the many reasons why the Professor gave her the heebie-jeebies. She entered the office and closed the door behind her. Pippin walked to his desk, staring at the floor the entire time. "I'm back...but I guess that's kind of obvious. The thing is, this time I want to stay. I mean, it's not like I didn't want to stay before, it's just that....this time is different. I want to learn how to control whatever it is I have. I want to help people. But I need help, and I want it, too." It took Pip a while before she noticed that she was rambling and that it was very likely that nothing she'd said had made any sense. But That's fine, because he knows. He understands everything for god's sake. He's a super-genius!.....Aaaand I'm a dork.

Rogue heaved a long sigh, dropped her head, and shut her eyes. Opening them, she looked back up at Victoria, crossed her arms and leaned back against the opposite wall. "Well, let's see. For starters he's the real leader of the Brotherhood, but he lets Mystique handle all the dirty work. On top of that, he thinks that ultimately, those of us who are homo-superior, or mutants, will rule the world. And he aims to get us to the top of the food chain by any means necessary, even if it means wipin' out homo-sapiens. I also know that he and the Professor used to be friends. But then, they had a falling out, mainly havin' to do with the fact that the professor would rather see our two species co-exist, instead of one dominating the other. Now, they are still fairly civil to each other, but for the time bieng have agreed to disagree. So, anyway, it really wouldn't surprise me if he was behind it, because based on what I know, it sounds like him. That answer your question well enough?"

Lance had only known this guy for a full thirty seconds before he reasoned that he did not like him. He seemed like yet another cheerful smart-a**, somewhere between the lines of Valerie and Damion. As if two of that type personality was bad enough add a third and you've got suicide city. But, of course, they were all Mystique's recruits, and despite the fact that she was probably dead, this was still her house, and they had live by her rules whether they liked it or not.
"She sent you huh?," he scoffed, reluctantly opening shoving the door into an 'open' position. ================================== The Professor watched quietly as Pippin Wilde entered his office. From her timid entrance, he noted that she was extremely nervous about what she was about to say or possibly, his reaction to what she was going to say. "That is quite alright," said the Professor, smiling warmly at the girl. "I understand that you are going to a rather difficult phase in life, a time where all possibilities must be explored, and I'm quite pleased you choose to return to us. This time for good, I assume." ================================== Still leaning against a wall, Victoria stared back at Rouge with a blank curious awe. Her mouth partially open, and her questions almost completely answered, she was now at a loss for what to say or do next. "Whoa," she managed to sputter, before clapping her hands over her mouth out of habit. Though she hated to admit it, she partially agreed in Magneto's belief system. After all, what was the point of having these special powers if they could not rise above the rest and put it to use? It seemed like a waste not too...
"Yeah," said Victoria, finally composing herself. "My question had been answered."

Kevin and SBen left the kitchen and went into the next room. SBen looked at Kevin, and he knew what SBen wanted. "Sure, you can go back to my room and sleep. Your probably tired and I don't really want to absorb you." Kevin said aloud. SBen nodded and left to go to Kevin's room. Kevin wondered more around the big mansion and wondered if there was anyone he could talk to.

"Yeah. Took me a couple weeks to get here, but she's the one who sent me. The place looks much better than she described it, though. You guys just renovated, huh?" David said, walking past Lance, and glancing around at the mostly new interior of the Brotherhood house.
"Name's David, by the way," he said, introducing himself.
"So, what's your power?" he added to Lance shortly after his introduction, getting right to the point. If he was going to be living with this person, he wanted to know exactly what he could do. From what Mystique had told him, he could surmise that the kid was a mutant like him, but that was about it.

Markus looked up from the paper he had been busy reading glancing at Lizz. "Anything but anchovies." He said before looking around at the suddenly busy living room. "So there are people living here....I thought I was the only one here for a while."
