"Huh? I'm fine really...." She said with a smile. ^.^
stare Cathy glared at the man and contenplated beating him over the head with her pool cue. "You can interest me in a tall glass of get the ******** out of my face and away from our table...." Cathy said bluntly reaching for her beer. "Otherwise get lost..." In his haste to try and impress them he knocked the balls out of possition ruining the game all together.
The man blinked at her stupidly not comprehending what she just said. Rachael of cource found this all to be highly amusing and giggled.

Morgan had a spot leaning against the bar, and watching the pool game. He was on his second drink, but he wasn't anywhere near intoxicated. Like at least three of the other people in here, he had a healing ability. The moment the alchohol hit his bloodstream, the nanites set to work removing it. This made it difficult, if not impossible to get any sort of buzz.
"Pity. This was getting good," Morgan remarked, as the stumbling drunkard interrupted the game. "She's informing you that she does not desire your company, and would prefer it if you would vacate the immediate vicinity of the pool table," Morgan said, leaning over towards the drunkard, purposely phrasing himself like that to further confuse the drunk. Hey, if Morgan couldn't get drunk, he could at least have a bit of fun.
Raze was sitting in the chair next to Racheal, and was also feeling a bit tipsy. He did not have a healing factor, and so it was relatively easy for him to get drunk. Well, as easy as it is for a normal person. Of course, he wasn't tipsy enough to remove his gloves. As most folks would tell you, fire and alchohol do not mix. Unless it's a part of the specific drink, and even then, it still wasn't a good idea. "Aww, just when it was getting to the good part, too!" he said.

Cathy watched Tetsuo's manuver and wistled. "That rates a 10 out of 10 for creative ways of de-pantsing a drunk..." She said motioning to the bouncer that was walking that way. A huge man with bicepts like cinder blocks. He ignored Tetsuo and dragged the pantsless man out his look dared anyone to argue with him. "Have a drink on me bucko...." Seh said waving to the bartender.
Rachael looked at Raze with that silly smile. "Yea, I bet Cathy would have beat her...I've seen her play back in Cali and she's a real shark..."
((I'll notice it ^.^))

Tetsuo mumbled something under his breath, looking at the end of his tail. A bootprint clearly visible in dark purple as the light-blue skin bruised. if he hadn't have held himself back, he would've removed that man's head without a second thought. He growled at himself for coming that close in public.

Exiting one of the mansions many elevators, Beast sighs. Delivering children wasn't his area of expertice, so driven by the urge to drink a sothing beverage, he'd left the med. area for the kitchen. He'd made it as far as the main hall before the sounds of something colapsing with a dull thud. Muttering something about young people, he leaves the main hall to arrive in the rec. room.Looking up from the broken couch, Kris smiles sheepishly. "...Er..uhm...sorry about that..." He stands, scratching the back of his neck in embarasment. "..I....had a bad dream." Beast sighs knowingly, preparing to dismiss it to to exhaustion. His scientific curriousity wouldn't allow him to, however. "How did you manage to do that?" Crouching down next the the 'late couch,' he examines the puncture holes. "So you can make smikes shoot from your body, interesting power.
Kris blinks, his embarasment forgotten. "No, that's just one of the things I can do." Lifting his left arm up, hpalm facing up, gel seeps from his skin, polling in his palm. "I create this gel, which will take the shape I think it to." He demonstrates, forming the gel into a knife, gauntlet and other items. "I can do it over my entire body."
Beast nods knowingly. "I see, a mental interface gel. I shall surmise that it has great properties?" His exhaustion fogotten, he heads for the elevator again. "Come with me, I would like to see this power in use. Kris nods, following Beast into the lift, standing in silence for the ride and then exiting the lift once it arrives, at the preperation room of the danger room. After being told what was on the other side of the door, and what he would face, a simple exersise: fighting a robot, he removes his coat and walks into the danger room.
Standing in the center of the room, Beast tells him to get ready. Kris nods, and begins to armor up. Gel appears on any exposed parts of his body. It's coming from all over, but he shifts it to open areas so to reduce damage to his clothing. His body quickly becomes covered in the gel, his head the only exposed area. Starting at the fet and working its way up his body, the gel hardens, hardening in plates where his joints are, until his head is the only thing uncovered. In the next phase, more gel forms from his body, acting as a cussion between his body and the armor, aslo starting at the feet. This pushes all the air out, causing his hair to be blown upwards as it reaches his neck. More gel forms around his head, forming a helmet, the areas around his eyes, mouth, nose and ears full of small holes, allowing him to function normally. As the 'cussion' forms around the rest of his head inside the armor, the resulting air being pushed from inside make a sort of mechanical growl. "...I'm ready." On each of his knuckles, small spikes, half an inch, extend.
Beast nods, thinking how similar this power is to colasus's. However, it seems to be more advance, beast surmizes, correctly, that Kris can from this over any part of his body, not just all. Being able to make weapons is also an improvment. Activating the robot, a tall, thin thing with four spider like leags and a swiveling head with four stun blasters on each side.
Staring at the robot from under his armor, Kris charges. The machine takes defensive mesures, firing a stun blast. However, thanks to the armor and cussioning below it, Kris doesn't feel anything as he brings back his left hand when he gets close, the small skipes extending out until they are four inches long, ramming all four inches of hardened gel into the outer shell. This is followed by a right punch doing the same as the left. The force of the punches pushes the robot back, and Kris doesn't let up, countinuing his assault until the front is battered beyond recognision. Tearing the front off, he attacks the mechanicla insides until the robot is nothing more then scrap metal. Sighing, he looks up at the obsevation booth. "Well?"
Beast is silent at first, before responding. "Not bad, want to try mutiple oppoents?" Kris was a high potential individual, he would have to tell the others that there was someone worth checking out. Pressing another button, he watches the mechanical assault.
As tweenty of the robots emerge, the spikes on his hands retract and he forms a midieval sword as he charges.

(No kidding that the shorty of the x-men is busy. I'm going to let him loose for you guys and go to plan B ^.^)
Freya sighed. No one seemed to understand the importance of this event. All they cared is the fact that she knew and didn't stop it. She tried hard to ignore it but it was even harder to not try to prove her point.
"Hey, Hank. I need to go with the other kids for a drink. Once the twins are back with the kid, take blondie and the dark twin to the cell block. Keep them there until I get back." And without waiting for Beast's acknowledgement, he left.
Frowning, Freya looked away. She was trapped and hated it. It wasn't part of her plans.
"Afraid? How come the great son of the famous Magneto be afraid?" said Wanda with bitterness. But she soon changed her tone. "This is what you were afraid to hear right? You...you never stood up for yourself. Nor for what you believe in. Father used you like a tool. Just like he tried to use me."
A second silence fell that Wanda broke after a couple of minutes. "You think I'm not afraid of people seeing through me? You think that if I show them how I truly feel, besides incontrollable anger toward our father, I don't feel naked? I'm scared of others because if my own father locked me away...anyone else can. Even you."
She hugged Ana, her body shivering from the cold wind blowing from the chilly ocean. "The only one who truly cares for me is Freya. That's the only truth I had so far." She looked at him, her gaze mixed with anger and sorrow. "But at least now, you're not making a complete idiot of yourself or lying to me to save your pathetic a**."

"Well... maybe, now that dad's gone... at least as gone as he ever gets... maybe we can both learn now what it's like to be something other than a tool, right? Maybe we can find out who we really are now... start being a normal family for a change?"
Wanda gave him a very odd look.
"Well... maybe not normal... normal is boring after all. But something other than mindraped adolescents robbed of any sort of childhood bred to be nothing mroe than living weapons for the use of a manical would-be world conqueror, perhaps?" he asked. He took a few tentative steps toward Wanda, semi-confident that she wouldn't fry him on the spot at this point, and tried to smile. He reached for his daughter, rubbing her cheek gently. Ana giggled and nibbled on her father's thumb.
"And you know... maybe we can do right by her? Make dad roll in whatever grave or beaker he ended up with and actually do something he couldn't do?"
"What's that?" Wanda asked.
"Meet a kid in this family who actually has sonebody to look up to, for one thing..." he said...

Regina sat on a bar stool near Porter, simply enjoying her Ameretto Sour. Her playing in the pool match had been forgotten as soon as Rachel challenged Penny. She didn't mind. It was a very intersting match and she rather liked just sitting down for a change and relaxing.
Gen frowned, watching the little tiff happen. She didn't like fighting, but the guy had deserved it. Though, she was rather impressed by Tetsuo's moves. Once he righted himself, she caught him looking at his tail. She winced seeing the boot shaped bruise appearing. "Hey, need a hand with that?" she asked, offering him some form of alcohol to maybe dull the pain. Or help them talk.

"Tetsuo, as nice as that move was, and as much as the guy deserved it, you really can't be starting bar fights. It's bad for Harry." Jamie said, looking nervously around. Surprisingly, the manuever had made little to no impact on the atmosphere of the bar. Jamie sighed. "Nothing happened this time, but in the future, be careful. Especially when it comes to flashy moves."

OOC: Heh, breakdance fighting. I feel like I'm watching Zoolander.
"I hear that, Rachael," Penance smiled and said in a joking way (but she knew she wasn't joking), "And I don't lose."
But she gave up on the game. She went out to relax and this was far from relaxing. Kicking back with Jacen, Regina and Porter, she got her own drink this time instead of syphoning more from Jacen.
"So, Porter, where'd you run off to this past year? Any place exciting?" Penance asked him slouching back on the bench she was sitting on.
"Just working on some family business," He wasn't entirely forthcoming. He knew Penance was trying to rib him for leaving Regina, not really trying to get more information from him.
"Always the worst kind to deal with sometimes," She said, "Any luck with that?"
"All smoke and mirrors," He said and finished his beer, "And how about yourself?" He already knew the answer to that.
"Touche," She tipped her beer to him and knew he knew her game. Penance looked around to see if anybody was listening. The place was too loud and everybody was too spread out, "This stays in the group. We're going to see KingPin or his men again. Jade was his number one. He's going to want to know what happened to her."
"We'll deal with it when it happens," Jacen said, "Maybe he threw her into the fire of the Institute to oust her. It was a pretty stupid move."
Penance grinded her teeth thinking, "Maybe. I think most of that was Jade's own stupidity and possibly a subconscious hope to be beaten and die... Somebody should keep and eye on the guy or the friends that Tetsuo just made a fool of... don't need any trouble."
Porter looked back at Jamie, "He's changed in the past year. Good call on his part. I can't say that I would have been as subtle about it."

"I guess I didn't need this..." Rachael said looking at her partially fogoten pool cue. She lurched to her feet. "Woo...." She said steadying herself before she pitched forward onto the ground. "I think I can put that away later...." She said and took her seat again.

Penance looked over at Rachael, "Hey, you should eat something before you drink anything else. Want some chips and salsa?"
She waved over to the waitress to get a food order in.

Tetsuo took the drink, sniffing it nce. He had never actualy had an alchoholic drink before. He took a sip, looking at the one who was telling him not to start bar fights. "I didn't start it...the idiot stomped on my tail...just be glad I didnt kill him." He glared, pointing to the boot-shaped bruise on his tail.
He finished off the drink. ok\Placing the empty mug on a table nearby. He stared blankly ahead for a moment before muttering, "I think i'm gonna be sick..." Eyes roled up into his head as he suddenly fell from the stool, hitting the floor hard. Some of the friends of the drunk who had stomped on his tail roared with laughter. But something was wrong...Tetsuo was out cold.

LadyJedi Penance looked over at Rachael, "Hey, you should eat something before you drink anything else. Want some chips and salsa?" She waved over to the waitress to get a food order in. She pursed her lips. "Sure..." She went to get up again and managed to keep her feet. ^.^ "Hot salsa please....if they have it."
