Morgan cursed when he checked his watch. "s**t, I'm late!" He quickly ran to his room, and grabbed his uniform, before running to the Danger Room as fast as his legs could caryy him. "Sorry I'm late guys. I hope I didn't keep you too long," he said as he skidded to a stop in front of the small group gathered in the Danger Room.
{Where'd Xavier go? I'm still waiting for him to respond to Raze.}

Regina made her way to the danger room as well, but steered clear of the class that had begun there. She wanted to get some personal training in on her new adaptation to her power. Keeping herself quiet she went down the hall and to one of the personal training rooms.
ooc: er... well, if regina isn't necessary for something, i'll flesh this out after work. ^^;;
Gen, not one for normal classes, ditched it and found herself in the library instead. She was surprised to find that there was a class going on there too, one lead by Porter. Evidently, she had stumbled upon the literary class that he was teaching.
~damnit... i can't escape some kind of class here can i?~ she thought, sighing when he spotted her and waved her over.

"Hey Sonya. Logan doesn't actually have a classroom so to speak. But we're doing the class in there. He said, jerking his head towards the door to the danger room. "Actually, if you don't mind I'm going inside for a bit." Jamie walked inside the danger room, and gave a voice command for his armory. He grabbed a katana, and started goiugn through exercises, waiting for the class to start.

"Oh really," replied Sonya. She then noticed Penny. "Oh Miss Penny, are you gonna be teaching this class," she said, all bubbly and happy that her idol was gonna be teaching her class. "I promise to work hard. I shall go and warm up." She walked over into a corner of the danger room, so not to disturb Jaime, and began stretching out her body, so she wouldn't pull anything during class. After she was done, she warmed up with a couple laps around the danger room, some jumps, and flips. She looked so graceful as she danced around in her warmup.
Sasha had her eyes closed and was trying to concentrate.
"Find my deepest nightmare, wolfcub, and let it grow in your mind," began Moonstar.
Sasha looked through Moonstar's dreams and found her dark nightmare. It surprise her, but she try to focus on bringing the nightmare out to it's fullest.
"Now that you have my nightmare consume in your mind, begin to form it in the sand infront of you. But keep your eyes closed."
Sasha focused. It was hard to concetrate on making something you could not see. The sand infront of her mearly stirred a little.
"Think harder, wolfcub. Focus."
Sweat was starting to drip down Sasha's forhead as she was concentrating harder. The sand infront of her began to shape. It started to form into a person, but it was missing an arm, a leg, and it's head.
Sasha opened her eyes to see what the horrible figure she made. "Dammit!" she shouted, slamming her fist on the floor, causing the sand figure to crumble back into sand. "It's too hard," she said.
Moonstar just turned around and went over to her bags. "You're letting the fact that you can't trust your blindness get to you. You're only trusting what you are able to see. Your enemys will try to distract you in any way they can. You are to not allow them to do so." She brought over two small jars with incense sticks in them. She began to lit them and circled the smoke they produced around Sasha.
Sasha suddenly felt at ease. Like all the burdens on her shoulders were going away. The sweet smell of the incense filled her body with such calmness.
"Now try again, wolfcub, but this time don't strain your mind. You should be able to do this with slight ease."
Sasha took a deep breathe and closed her eyes. She looked for Moonstar's deepest nightmare again. She concentrated on the fear. As she did, the sand infront of her began to stir. It was started to grow tall. It formed into a figure. Then more figures appeared.
Moonstar smiled. "Open your eyes, young wolf."
Sasha did and was shocked at the perfect human figures that stood before her. "I-I did it!" she exclaimed happily. Moonstar knodded.
"But I messed up on this one," Sasha said, pointing to a bony looking figure.
"No, that one is correct," said Moonstar, "The others you see before you were members of a group called The Hellfire. The gruesome figure you see before you is called Death. Others known it as the Grimreaper."
Sasha was surprised by this. "You can see death itself?"
Moonstar knodded. "A technique I will never teach to anyone, to let you know now. But moving on, you my dear have achieved your younger wolfling. You have grown from a wolfcub to a young wolf. I am much proud."
"So I am done?" asked Sasha.
"No. To become alpha wolf, you must now conquer your own fears."

Sith Lord Darth Moren "Partly because I can do this," Raze replied, taking off one of his gloves, and flaring up his arm. "And partly because I can't always control it," he said, focusing on making his arm extinguish, and pulling his glove back on. "You can probably imagine, but it's a bit of a nuisance to have to wear these all the time," he said, tugging at the corner of his glove. "I'm here because I'd like to accept your offer," Raze said calmly, though a small smile crept across his face. So, this is Charles Xavier. I always thought he'd be... bigger. Ah well. Can't judge a book by it's cover, can I? Raze thought to himself. {Eh, that's okay.} Xavier rolled out from behind his desk, sitting almost majestically upon his wheelchair. He extended his hand to the young Raze, though he was careful to wait before the young man had replaced his glove before doing so. "I do believe that you will find what you desire here, young man," he said warmly. "At the moment your room is in the process of being set up for you, but feel free to search about the school. If you wish, a formal tour will be set up for you tomorrow, though at the moment all of my professors are teaching summer classes." He handed Raze a copy of the schedule, along with the locations of the classrooms and other teaching areas. "If you wish, feel free to join them. You'll find that my students are always williing to welcome a new classmate, and it would do you well to get comfortable with them. This will be a time of great discovery in your life, and its always easier to deal with it if you have good friends to fall back on," he said with a smile.

"Thank you sir," Raze said, accepting the handshake, and picking up the pile of papers that contained his schedule, and classroom locations. "A tour would be lovely. I'd hate to get lost in my first week," he added, smiling. "Good day, sir." And with that, he turned on his heel, and calmly strode from the office.
He took a look at the class schedule in his hands. Self-defense looks like fun, he thought to himself, looking over the paper. He quickly checked out the class location on the other sheet. "Danger Room? Where the heck is that?" he murmured to himself.

He pulled he arm from the wall which was sporting a gaping hole. "Alright...whats next..." He looked around the room for the next part of this lesson. Combat was stimulating...simulating a number of opponents with a variety of weapons and abilities. "You're quiet good..." At the moment she was mimicing Pietro...or Quicksilver as she had called him. Man if she was this fast just a copy of his power, then the real thing had t obe insane...he couldn't keep a bead on him forcing him to change tactics...repeatedly.

"Oooff..." She looked over her shoulder and barely caught her glasses before they hit the ground. "Hey Sonya, nice bumping into you..." ^.^ She pushed her glasses back onto her face and looked to the instuctors then at the next student that came in.

OOC: Heh, looks like Porter and Logan have a scheduling conflict the way our story is going smile I want to make sure to get the powers training in before the next plot starts so Porter is going to superseed self defense.
IC:
Porter made a sprint from his classroom to the Danger Room where the Green Team training is supposed to be. When he saw that the self defense class was still going or still waiting to be going, he was a bit annoyed. There was a heavy scheduling conflict with Logan's class and his own. He nodded to Evelyn to call her over and she gladly obliged, "Green Team needs to be in here now."
She looked at a clock and was amazed at what time it was, "I guess nobody looked at the schedule when they booked this class. At least most of your and my team is here."
"I'll put out a comm message to get them here incase there was more confusion," Porter said and hit the button on the comm in the wall, "GREEN AND ALPHA TEAMS, REPORT TO THE DANGER ROOM IMMEDIATELY."
Porter stood in the middle of the room, "I'm sorry guys, self defense will have to be moved to tomorrow. Green Tream training is more of a priority. You'll remain here but we're going to be working on powers rather than fighting and defending. Alpha Team is going to help us today on power focus. Each Green Team member is going to split off and work with an Alpha Team member."
Penance walked over to Jacen who had been happily resting after their battle room sequence. She sat down herself wanting to get off her feet and then examined her boots, "Look at that, ruined a good pair of boots."
"Hey, it was your idea, lady," He threw his hands up in his defense making her laugh.
"I thought it was a neat trick to try," She put her foot down and looked at the assembled students, "You want to help with the power control lesson or you want to sit this one out? You're not obligated to help like the rest of us."
"You sound like you don't want to help," He looked at her.
She shook her head, "I'm fine with it. We're just obligated to do this."

She nodded feeling a bit more relaxed. She was not a good fighter...mainly due to inexperience so the fact that they were working on power focus relaxed her a bit. "Eeeerrr....do I need to go outside for this? My powers don't work on metal...its to hard for me to dig through..."

Porter understood Rachael's concerns since she was newer to the Institute. Not everybody understood the technology at hand.
"It will be okay, Rachael. The Danger Room is one of the most sophisticated peices of equipment in the world. It is a high tech holographic simulator... so advanced that you will never know that you aren't facing holograms. We will simulate scenarios for you."

"AAaaaaahhhhhh......." She nodded understanding somewhat. It made her head ache trying to think of just how complicated it must be to not only build something like this...but to maintain it must be a nightmare. "I get it....ok thanks..." She did not ask about the kinds of scenarios she would be facing.

Regina paused in her own personal simulation and ordered a cease fire. Coming out of the room she nearly collided with Porter. "oof. You know, standing in front of doors is a silly idea... Unless you meant for that to happen." she teased, but put her more serious face on. "Why the sudden call?"
Gen merely tailed Porter from the literature class to the Danger Room. She wasn't thrilled with this but she did want to help her powers so suffice it to say, she was anxious. Catching a glimpse of a rather large group all headed to the same area, she raised a brow and wondered just how many people were part of each team that had been announced over the comm system.
