Luke sighed as he was dragged into the spring, not even making the slightest attempt to even move. When he was actually in the water he heaved another sigh, and in only a few minutes small sheets of ice floated around him. The small cracked sheets continuously melted and re-froze in his presence. "No, it makes me hope if I talk long enough you'll lose interest and go away" Sometimes anyway He gave his head a light shake. Then he turned upon hearing a voice "Hmm?..." He said, taking a moment to register the mans question "Its that way" He said pointing with one finger. Then he placed the same finger to the ground. In less then an instant, a small line of ice began from where his finger touched the floor, and snaked out the door in the direction of the cafeteria.
"Bah, I've had worse happen" Xavier said with a sigh, rubbing the back of his neck slightly. "I've fallen out of tree's, into ponds, tripped over rocks, and there were more then a few unfortunate incidents in gym class..." He said, continuing to list of various incidents like they were every day occurrences. "Stop looking at the floor" He said suddenly cutting off his list "Its both rude, and it kinda makes you look stupid...besides, if you look to closely its a good way to fall on your face" Said, pointing slightly for a moment.

Eve nodded and put her head up straight so she was looking him in the eye, "I'm not used to people actually looking me in the eye, their eyes always divert away." She cocked her head to one side and back, "Your awefully clumsy aren't you? Is that because of your..." She wasn't sure how to word it, "Powers?" It was the only way she could think of asking without sounding cruel and mean by calling them a bad name. She probably would have said mutantcy but that didn't sound right or nice so powers was the next best thing on the list. She looked him up and down slightly, he looked so normal but that was something she was noticing, most of the mutants around here looked like everyday humans. His hair was slightly messy but it could be styled that way as she's seen it before.
Kat had managed to take her dress off and just be in her bra and undies while the two guys talked for the brief time they did, and swam over, "When you enter the main doors it's on your left. They can make you anything you like just ask." She had a smile on her face and noticed the ice, "Luke made an ice trail for you, just follow that. Also you might meet a couple more people on the way." She turned in the water and went back to the deep part before settling again.
"The new student is here Lucas, I should probably meet him before something happens." She left the maze using her powers to get back out, and then did a mind search for the new comer. Noticing he was over by the hot spring she bee-lined it there and gave him a smile, "Ah yes you must be Echo. Pleasure to meet you. Let me give you a tour, Lucas is finishing your paperwork. Is there somewhere you'd like to go?"
((Pandora's name is really Evening.. I just noticed. GAH!))

Marcus followed the trail of ice with his eyes, letting out a small grunt as he analyzed it. It was then he noticed the half dressed girl swimming next to Luke, this took him by surprise a bit. However, hunger was the main concern at the moment, so it was easy enough to keep his mind on other things. Just as he was about to follow the icy trail he was greeted by yet another new person. "Yeah, that's me... and same to you" ,socializing obviously not being his strongest point. "I was going to the cafeteria just now to get something to eat actually..." He began to walk off, following the trail provided by Luke.

"Hey! I thought we agreed, full clothed!" Luke suddenly barked, half of it in surprise when he noticed the loss of some of Kat's attire. He sighed and took off his shirt, glad he was wearing two. He then immediately threw the shirt at Kat's head "Put this on, I'd hate to find out what'd happen if you're mo..." Before he could finish his sentance, Luke suddenly yelped and disappeared below the surface of the water, obviously he was hiding from Lisa, who had just entered the room.
"What powers?" Xavier said, sounding like he didn't understand at first. Then he frowned and sighed "Oh, those powers" He rolled his eyes slightly "Sorry to disappoint you, but I'm normal. 100% pure, un-altered human" He pitched his cheek and stretched it slightly as if to prove his point. "I got in because of a genius level IQ...and its rude to say someones clumsy...I prefer lacking in coordination" He said, acting like that sounded so much better.
((I new that, and I'd noticed long ago!))

Kat pulled the shirt off her head and waved at her mum, "Hey mum! So we got another new guy?"
Lisa turned to her daughter and smiled, "Yes we did dear. And I'd prefer if you did what Luke said and put some clothes on."
"It's not like he hasn't seen me almost naked before, plus he carried me to my room when all I had was a towel around me... and a shirt apparently."
Lisa eyes went wide and she walked to the edge to glare down on Luke, "YOU DID WHAT!?"
"Oh come off it mum."
"Luke Wolfe you'd better pray I never catch you doing, or hearing about, that again! So help me god the bears will have a feast on your body!" She turned on her heels and was breathing very roughly on her way back to the school.
Eve made an 'ohhh' face and then nodded, "Sorry I thought that I'd never meet the other human in here." She thought about what he said to get in and blushed again, "I got in cause Lisa felt sorry for me considering the newspapers were always trying to interview me and stuff. I'm not an altered human and I'm definitely not a genius." She rubbed her belly again and tried to figure out quickly in her head how she missed him laying there so badly that she sat on his stomach.

Marcus had grown increasingly uncomfortable in his situation. It was an odd enough change being in a place like this but to be surrounded by new people was too much. Looking back, it was a tad bit rude leaving like that, but his hunger still seemed more important then manners. After following both Luke's trail of ice and Kat's advice, he made his way into the cafeteria. His only hope was that he didn't need to pay as he had no money. He ordered two turkey sub sandwiches with a variety of peppers and veggies on it. He would have liked to order a beer with his meal, but he was still hoping to play off the idea that he was 18 so a Coke would suffice. Rather then sitting in the cafeteria, he made his way back to his room with his food. Sitting in the cafeteria ran the risk of more social interaction and Marcus felt he has had enough already. He shut the door and silently enjoyed the first good meal he's had in ages. After he finished eating, he was still a bit tired from the long walk and brush with the psychotic taxi driver, so he decided another nap was in order...

A slight splash came from the other end of the spring as Luke resurfaced, a tube made entirely of ice sticking out of his mouth. He spat it out into the spring and yelled just before Lisa left the room "Would you have rather I left her half naked in the cafeteria!?" It was a combination save his a** excuse, and pay back to Kat for mentioning it in the first place. After a moment he paddled over and splashed Kat "There is a time and place for everything, and the place for telling your mother such things is none existent!" He said, splashing her again, and then waving his arms dramatically in the hair to make his point. Though I wonder if she realizes I could probably outrun her at top speed...and that I used to fight bears...
"That makes two of us" Xavier said, using his usual less then enthusiastic tone of voice. Stretching his arms, and cracking his neck the other way, he stood up. "Well I suppose that makes sense. In this school, everyone's the odd man out" He said, crossing his arms behind his head before he began to wander off. Though he hadn't actually gotten that far yet.

Kat giggled, "Aw come on Luke! It wasn't that bad. Besides she'd have to kill you over my dead body." She splashed water back and ducked under the surface. She swam over to Luke and popped up in front of him, "Anyway I think mum would let the whole school see me naked as long as you didn't see." She wasn't sure why but her mum seemed to have this thing against Luke. Probably cause Kat and Luke were good friends and it worried her mother, being a mother of course.
I'll kill you in your sleep Luke. I swear to god.
Eve noticed him stretch out and stand up, "Oh I hope I'm not stopping you from anything." It was then that she realized she had come in and disturbed him and him getting up could mean that he was waiting for someone or thing, "I'll leave but hope to see you around. I'm Evening." She put her hand out in front of her but kept one on her belly.

"Yeeeaaaah...some how I doubt that...very much...in fact I think she'd kill you for that. Or at the very least lock you up somewhere where you couldn't escape even with your powers..." He said, slowly baking away. Why did she have to be wearing white? He said turning around. As he turned around a gold chill went up his spine Why do I get the feeling I should start sleeping with one eye open?...
"Xavier" He responded, giving a half hearted wave "And your not stopping me from anything. I was just wandering till you got here, listening to the rare silence in the halls" He said before slipping his hands into his pockets and walking off.

Marcus was still not used to waking up in this place, but he imagined it would take a bit longer before that passed. One way he figured he could assist in that was just getting better acquainted with his new home, so taking a walk about the place would be best. Marcus knew doing this was going to probably result in meeting someone once again, but he had a simple solution. Marcus found he was able to socialize a bit better during inebriation. Making sure the door was shut, he dug through his bag and grabbed 1 of the 2 bottles of alcohol he had in his bag. The one he had grabbed was a water bottle filled with a mixture of vodka and orange juice. After drinking a good 1/3 of the liquid he tucked it away back in his bag. It was then he thought about the contents of his bag. Two bottles of alcohol, two guns, adult reading material and a stolen MP3, Not too sure they would be happy 'bout this... he thought. What they don't know won't hurt 'em he quickly added in his head. Before leaving on his walk of the campus he quickly thought to bring the MP3, might as well have some entertainment along the way. Since the MP3 was stolen and he had no way to change the songs in it, Marcus had to make due with the ones the previous owner had put in it. However, there were a few bands that he cared for. As he made his way out of his room and down the hall, he popped in both the earphones and selected a band called "Clutch". Slowly making his way through the halls, bobbing his head to the beat, wandering into random rooms and making note of their purpose. It wouldn't be long before this place was committed to memory...

Cole shook his head lightly in slight disapproval. "I suppose that's your choice, but know that I don't approve," he muttered as they came closer to the building. He couldn't help but smile slightly at the sight. It was somewhat welcoming. Living there for a few years, he had come to think of it as his one and only home, almost forgetting about his other one. Just out of feeling, he morphed into his shadow form and slid across the ground effortlessly towards the entrance. Damian padded around the lobby for a few minutes, looking as if he had no clue were he was. He did, actually, he just didn't know where he wanted to go. He finally stopped at one point next to a wall and sat down with a huff. He stared aimlessly in front of him as one of his ear's twitched. He hadn't been in his cat form in a while and felt oddly comforted by it. He wasn't quite sure if he wanted to turn back human or not yet.

Chandrakanta Hakidonmuya walked down the path with deliberate care and purpose as she headed toward her new haven the glamour she had grown accustomed to wrapped around her body live a warm glove hiding her true appearance from all. If anyone were to spot her all they would see was a young woman with short black hair that was almost cropped wearing a plain white tank top and black jeans. There was nothing extraordinary about her appearance save the green lip stick she wore that matched the plain green eyes the glamour gave her. She also wore heavy eye liner and mascara with a cigarette hanging loosely from her lips until she raised a slender hand to take a long drag. Among the human world she was Akido Watson, drifter, instead of princess Chandrakanta Hakidonmuya Nyoka heir to the Fae's Sidhe court. She had thrown away that life so many years before to save all she cared about but during the night the winds still carried her name as her people searched for her to bring her home. At long last the school was coming into sight as she let out a sigh. Every year she hid she felt like part of herself was dying but there was nothing to be done. To let the world see her for who she was would also reveal what she was. the lost Sidhe princess.
As she approached the gate, she saw the woman, Lisa standing out. Part of her wanted to trust the woman but she was still cautious. All it would take was the wrong word to the wrong person and she would be drug home by force and not only she would pay the price but the people she had left to protect would suffer as well. What was she to do. You could only stay so long in one place and she preferred the country to the city. The city with all the metal and mad made objects made her sick. This was better for many reasons and hopefully would be her home for a couple of years. The Earth welcomed her though she kept the power at bay not sure whom would be able to feel it as she approached the door, she said with an unidentifiable accent, "Lisa I presume?"

Kat pouted, "Well nuh. I'll fight no matter what." She had gone back down under the water and really didn't notice she was wearing a white, lace bra and panties to match. She swam around under the water, not worrying too much about running out of breath cause it wasn't that deep. When she did finally get drained of oxygen she popped up and took a deep breath, "I LOVE that feeling!" She sat under the waterfall that fed the hot springs so it fell on her long hair which was mostly handing over her left shoulder.
Pandora watched Xavier leave and was ready to sit back till a cute little black cat caught her eye. Walking over she picked it up and stroked it's back, "Aw I didn't know they have a cat around here. I would have skipped class just to scratch your ears." She sat down back where she was before, placed the cat on her lap with her arm around the cat and used her long nails to scratch the top of his head between his ears.
Luna ran to meet up with Cole but she ran as a jaguar so she was pretty head to head with him without trying. When they reached the door she noticed Lisa and another female, "Hey Cole why don't we go somewhere?"
Lisa smiled at Akido, who she saw in her true self just because of her mind powers and the fact she was more powerful than any student, "Hello Akido. Lucas will be finishing up your paperwork, you should stop by in a while so you can sign the final paperwork while you here. Is there anything you'd like to see or need help seeing.

Cole shifted back out of the ground, but this time he was still in his shadow form. He looked to Luna questioningly for a moment. "Alright..." he said before glancing inside. He then looked back to Luna. "Do you have any idea of where we should go, perhaps?" Logan emerged from his classroom, shutting the door behind him. He tugged at the sleeve of his lab coat as he began walking down the hall. He pulled the one sleeve off before swinging it over his side and pulled the other off. He folded it in half and lay it across his arm. He came to the lobby and glanced about. "Hm, seems unusually quiet today..." he murmured to himself, just barely audible. He grabbed hold of the bottom of his coat and folded it up once more so that it didn't drag near the ground before stepping out into the lobby itself. He passed through it and took a step outside. He passed by Lisa and another student as he walked. He nodded his head politely. "'ello miss," he greeted before looking over to the girl. "Good day to you as well, miss,"

Akido used her court smile that showed no secrets though when facing this woman it would do little good. She was the more powerful woman though without a direct challenge she would never know. Briefly thinking over the question she was about to reply when another man approached and she couldn't help but look him over though she was less obvious than she would have been had she been among the courts. He was handsome for someone who wasn't one of her own people. Offering a small informal bow she replied, "Good day I hope you are both well this afternoon." It wasn't normal but many countries here still bowed so let them guess about where she was from. The glamour hid her well as she looked back to Lisa, "I heard this school has an amazing Lab department for the sciences. I was wondering if I could look around." While at the moment she was pretending that she had little knowledge in science, Akido had been passing as a nurse about ten years ago before having to move on.
