Jamie shook himself out of this thoughts. He knew sitting there wasn't doing him any good, so he looked around. He got stopped by Xavier and Hank, who looked over him. He had been healing pretty well from when Crystal had attacked him when they had still been at the mansion, but Hank administered some antiseptic and sent him on his way. Jamie saw Gen sitting in the corner, and slid down next to her. Jamie hadn't had too much contact with Gen, aside from when she had told him off for poking fun at Teagen when they were leaving the beach. God, that had seemed so long ago.
"Hey Gen. . . Are you alright?"

Morgan's physical injuries had healed, but the psychological scars would last a long time. Now that the anger that had been boiling inside him had simmered down, he was left feeling numb. Numb, and very scared. Scared in a way that he'd never felt before. Scared of himself.
When his mind accepted that fact that Forge was a traitor, he simply lost control. He was focused on one thing: Forge's death, by Morgan's hand. The worst part of it all was that when he was crushing Forge, he had felt nothing but cold glee. No remorse, no red-hot fury at the person he was about to kill, but a perverse pleasure in the fact that he was about to end someone's life.
Morgan was shaken. He had touched his own dark side, and he had enjoyed it. It frightened him hom much he enjoyed that taste of, for lack of a better word, evil. It frightened him that it was lurking just below the surface. And it frightened him that he wanted to feel that darkness again.

Rogue slowly opened her eyes. "Where am ah?" She rolled over and to her feet. In her rush to get up, she felt her head prickle. I hurt my head. My stupid injury kept me from helping them.
She looked around. Now, where am I? She noticed many people she knew, some in a mad temper. Stupid head.

Pietro lay motionless, expressionless, and broken as he lay upon Sasha's sandy form of transport. Normally he'd be singing lines from Steppenwolf, or gagging over the fact that his lips had made contact with his sister, or possibly even reaching out to grab Sasha's butt. However, the fact that she was sitting on the side where he'd lost his arm only reinforced what he'd lost.
How dare she, he thought, thinking of the timid little X-Girl that had done this to him. Pietro hated feeling vulnerable. The only one to have ever done that in the past was his fathe during one of their more intense "training" sessions. By the time they were done, Pietro's legs were so heavily damaged that he couldn't run for weeks. But back then, it was only a few broken bones, and he was backed by Magneto's healers. But now...
He looked at his arm. Not only was it burned, but it had seared shut. Even up to his shoulder, he couldn't feel anything. He cringed to think that his once toned arm had now been reduced to nothing more than ash.
The only way she could have done this much damage... he thought, the words repeating through his mind. The only ******** way... was that... she wanted to kill me... that dirty b***h, she was actually trying to kill me!
He began to grow angry, feeling almost as though Sonya had cheated. X-Men didn't kill, it was the one weakness that the Brotherhood could always exploit. If that little b***h had changed tactics, then she had cheated, used an advantage without telling anyone. And if she was going to fight dirty...
"Sasha," he muttered, his body still weak. "For your cousin's sake, you'd better hope she died back there... because otherwise, I'm going to kill her myself."
Given Pietro's current condition, it would be awfully difficult to justify any sort of mercy directed to her.

Gen blinked at Jamie. She couldn't even remember who he was for a minute until the beach flashed back into her mind. "Oh. Hey Jamie. Yeah... i guess I'm okay." she shrugged. "So much has gone on... we get back from a vacation and all this happens. Kinda bizarre..."

"Yeah. . ." Jamie's eyes glazed over for a moment. And he thought he understood why Penny left. "It's a hard life isn't it? Sometimes I wonder what it's like to just relax and worry about homework and girls, or guys if your a girl I suppose, and s**t like that. . ."
"Can I ask you something? If you could give it all up, the powers and everything. . . would you? Would you live a normal life?"

OOC: *looks around* Okay....I go away for two weeks and the whole place changes on me. Well I just gonna have to jump back in. To all the new people who've Join I'm Cloud, one of the mods, and I play Pyro.
IC: "This building will self-detenate in ten.... nine... eight....seven" John looked up. "uh-oh, I think it's tiem for me to get out of here" he said to himself. The other's had jumped into the portal already and he was the last one in the building. Walking into the portal he was instantly transported back to Xavier's mansion. He looked around. The place was a mess. I think it's time I get out of here before another battle starts he thought to himself. He went to the front and found that the other brotherhood members were all getting the same death look from a good number of the X-men. He checked his flamethrowers. Damn, not enough fluid. That's what I get for toying with that weather witch. He but his hand in his pocket and wrapped it around his lighter, just in case one of the X-men decided to attack. "Ok brotherhood members I think it's time we head home" he called. After double checking to make sure that all of the members were with him, he lead the way out the front door and through the front gates of the mansion. He could feel the eyes of many X-men watching them as they left. When they finally got back to the brotherhood house they all went they're different ways, some either too tired to do anything but nap, and others taking care of some of the wounds they got from the battle.

" Boring. Boring. Booooooring. " noko chanted to herself softly. She was having another fun filled day of looking out the picture window of her family home. The scenery never changed here. Her parents werent rich or poor. They wernt mean to her. They didnt beat her or call her names. Nor were they trying to be her best friend at times. It was normal here. And that mostly was what drove nokomis crazy. Being abnormal in a normal family. She had always been a bit abnormal. Even before she realized she could copy others mutant powers and occasionally lift things. Being telekinetic wasnt bad. It was the copying that drove her nuts. She had been a telepath for a month. Hearing everyones thoughts sucked. Badly. Thought at this moment hearing her mothers real thoughts on her brothers new earring would be quite enjoyable. She wondered briefly what the brotherhood was up to. Her parents had dropped her off at the xavier institute. However she didnt fit in there. She never would. She kept running off to the brotherhood house. That of course irked her parents to no end. She sighed audibly. Her parents had caught her there again and had swooped her home. They had made her normal again. Her black and purple hair had been stripped, cut to a suitable length and was at its almost normal color of white. She had rebelled against getting her tattoo lasered off and her parents had agreed once they learned the real reason she got a dreamcatcher on her arm. Though the piercings had been taken out. Secretly she would sneak them back in though. and take them out again just so they wouldnt grow shut. Lookin at the clock she realized it was near time. They were going to drop her off again soon. At the institute. ~ Thank god ~ she thought to herself.

Gen looked at Jamie and really had to think about that question. Giving up her powers... the snow, the ice... Just be normal? What kind of life would that have been? Maybe she could have made friends and stayed in one place longer than three months. But if she hadn't...
"No. Because then I wouldn't have met the people here. I'd have always felt a little out of place. Even if I didn't have powers, I'm sure." she finally answered after what seemed like forever. "And the trip to the beach house was kinda fun. I don't think I'd have had that luck being normal. What about you?"

"I couldn't give it up." Jamie answered quickly. He hesitated slightly while saying the rest. "I suppose there are two big things. First. . . I could never give up the people here. They're my family more than my real family ever was. But also because. . . I can use this power. I can actually do something worthwhile with it. I can actually save a life, and change lives. I feel like. . . having these powers. . . Give us the ability to actually make a difference in the world. I couldn't give that up.

(((...Thank you Cloud...You don't know how much I love you right now... 4laugh .)))
Victoria just about to snap at the X-men for their so called "warm welcome", but was stopped permaturely as John showed up and ordered the Brotherhood members to go home. Not needed to be told twice, she smiled and folowed her evil buddies out of the X-Mansion without so much as a second glace at the X-losers. As the group of them found their way out of the mansion, it took every fiber of her being not to shout an obscene saying back at their more then gracious hosts.
After a few mimutes, she couldn't help but smile as the Brothehood shack appeared in front of them. Sure, it was a cardboard box compaired to the Xavier mansion, but she didn't care about it's outward appearence as long as she was always welcome in it. Stepping into the dark, messy and smelly lving room, the group of battle worn Brotherhood members slowly and silently went off in their separate directions. She realised that it would be in her best interest to go to sleep, but found herself too excited from the day's events to do so. Claiming the lumpy couch as her makeshift bed, she streched out of length of it and stared blankly up at the ceiling, curious about the fate of Sasha and Peitro.

*Introducing my new character. xd *
A young 16 yr old girl arrived at the broken down mansion. "Oh, my," she said to herself, "I hope everything''s alright" She brush back some of her long curly, pale pink hair. Her pale blue eyes danced around the area, looking for someone to ask for help. Or in this case, see if they need any. She happened to notice an elderly man floatin around in a wheel chair. She walked all over the ruble towards him. "Excuse my sir, are you alright?" she asked. "Yes I am miss," replied the professor," And you must be Miss Roseline." "Oh, are you Professor Xavior?" she asked, shocked and embarrassed," I''m sorry sir, I didn''t realize it was you." "It''s quite alright. Welcome to er...what used to be the school. As soon as it''s rebuilt you will be shown to your room." "Is there anything I can do to help?" "Just go around and get to know the others." "Alright. Thank you professor," and she walked on. She noticed many of the trees and flower beds where in horrible condition as well. She continued, staring at the flowers and ran into Jaime. "Oh I''m sorry sir," she said, "I wasn''t watching where I was going." She smiled, excited about meeting new people. She also noticed another girl with Jaime. "I''m new here. My name is Roseline but you can call me Rose. It''s a pleasure meeting you both," and she reached out her arm to shake their hands when she noticed her hand was missing. "Oh no. Where did it go?" she questioned, looking around, not noticing the confused looks on Gen and Jaime''s faces. Then she noticed it crawling by Gen. "Oh there you are," she said, "Come on, back on." The hand crawled back towards her and she placed it back on. "Sorry about that, it happend all the time," she smiled, "So what are your names?"

Sasha helped Pietro to his room. She wanted to yell at him, slap him, something for what he said earlier about wanting to kill Sonya. But Sasha was still getting over the shock of seeing Sonya acting the way she did. Pietro was right. The x-men were not killers. And Sonya was the sweetest of them all. But that cold dark expression on Sonya's face told otherwise. Even worse was the fact that the x-men said Sonya did not arrive with them, that she may infact be dead. Sasha didn't want to believe that she lost her best friend, her dearest cousin. She would now be alone in the world, without anyone. She laid Pietro on his bed and he fell fast asleep. She sat on the otherside of the bed. She didn't let herself cry when she heard the news, cause she never wanted to show any sign of weakness to anyone, especially the x-men. She looked at Pietro. By the way Sonya was earlier, you may not have a choice but to kill her if she's still alive. She buried her face in her hands and cried silently.

Markus sprawled himself out on the couch. Since he had no set room here he'd crash out on the couch. He personaly didn't trust the people from Xaviers place after this whole mess.
