Erik Lehnsherr actually had one last song he wanted to share, with everyone. It would definitely be considered a 'quicky'. Chuckling to himself, he cracked his knuckles and wrists one last time. Taking a brief look towards Lorna who now sat at his side. He glanced up briefly away from her towards where he thought Cal had run off towards. Then quickly around the gathering crowd. The sounds of voices blending in together. As he turned towards the audience, "And now... for my last performance of the day..." He smirked, given that he was old, the only lines that could be see along this man's face were the crow's feet. In appearance he did not appear to be older than somewhere in his late 40s. Did the music do that? Maybe. "I give you... The Flight of the Bumble Bee."
"Enjoy." With that last note, he placed his hands along the keys. Closing his eyes as he inhaled a deep breath. He reopened his eyes as his fingers began to fly literally off of the keys of the piano in flight of the fast music being played. The Flight of the Bumble Bee - Piano Solo

Kurt heard the young Woman speaking, and had to Drown out the Melody being played not too far off. A Dead person? He took a good look at her face, Examining each and every feature. She seemed Familiar, but he Could not be Certain. She had still captured his attention all the Same. Did she know Him? He pondered. He knew Alot of People. Odd's are he had met her previously. " I am not Sure, Do you? " His head tilted slightly as he picked through his Memories for her face.

D 0 m i n i 0 She thought perhaps it was a dream, her eyes went from Hope over towards Nightcrawler, knowing somehow... some way... Hope had something to do with Nightcrawler's return. Hope's eyes flickered, as if she could almost read Domino's thoughts. A smile beamed across her face as she saw the look in Dom's eyes. Messiah Hope Summers "One last song?" She blurted to Domino instead of Cable, which even caught herself off guard. "For Kurt?" There it was. That Trust. That ray of hope beaming through Hope. As Hope turned to Dom. To me! She turned to me! Her heart did one of those funny flips again, feeling those tears well up. Chewing on her lower lip, she gave Hope a nodding of her head, "Of course, Hope."She smiled even wider glancing over to the man behind the piano. It was simply beautiful. She had not heard something so lovely before in her entire life. Hope was not accustomed to listening to music, but she sure would like to. And it was funny, going to Domino instead of Cable. Hope felt that the single black eyed woman might have a little leway in matters such as this... She liked Domino, in an odd...family type way that she hadn't experienced in a long time. It was hard to understand, but Hope figured she'd sort it out later in her head. XxCablexX "I get sick of it too you know...all the running and fighting...but if you wanted to come here all you had to do...was ask. I was worried sick about you when I couldn't find you" "I'm sorry Nathan." Hope lowered her eyes and whispered, slightly embarrassed. "It was really ignorant of me...but-" She sighed. "Something was calling me out here."D 0 m i n i 0 *One last song... and then we go. Yes?* She stated in her thoughts towards Nate. Looking between Nate, Hope and over towards their friend, Nightcrawler who was actually there with them. heart heart heart heart

XxNightcrawlerxX12 Kurt heard the young Woman speaking, and had to Drown out the Melody being played not too far off. A Dead person? He took a good look at her face, Examining each and every feature. She seemed Familiar, but he Could not be Certain. She had still captured his attention all the Same. Did she know Him? He pondered. He knew Alot of People. Odd's are he had met her previously. " I am not Sure, Do you? " His head tilted slightly as he picked through his Memories for her face.  The child thought about that for a moment with a frown, her eyes showing no sign of returning to normal for as long as the music played behind her. "No, I don't think we have met before, but you seem to know everyone else, so..." she paused, and then smiled, almost like a child her age should, holding out a hand. "I'm Zephyr, nice to meet you." she turned to Hope then, remembering that they were supposed to be on the same team, the Hella-Hell- the something or others. "I think we were supposed to be on the same team or something, would the grown ups still think it unsafe if we were to do things together?" she wondered, almost seeming to ask Hope herself, trying to find a way that the grown ups wouldn't get so worried about Hope next time. When the song ended her eyes bled back to the bright red they usually were, and she turned to applaud with the crowd, even if it had been an "enemy" playing, it didn't make the performance any less enjoyable. In fact, she was wondering about the enemy statement itself. The man seemed like the reasonable type, and she was quite curious as to why he would be an enemy in the first place. There had to be some reason, he was probably simply misguided about something. Maybe she would talk to him...

"Uh, yeah I guess we are." That reminded Hope she had to go over being a "Hellion" with Cable. Did Nathan know the true tactics of the team she was placed on? Then she continued, "I think the grown ups would think anything I did was dangerous..." She frowned slightly.

Still holding Domino's hand, he was shocked that Hope listened to her. He used their psychic link to talk to her..."Playing mother hen Dom? Now that's something that used to scare you to death..."
Turning his attention back to Hope, "Yeah one last..." Cable stopped in mid sentence. Out the corner of his eye for a moment...he thought he saw Nightcrawler "Kurt?" he said to himself. Is that possible that he's alive some how?

Kurts brow rose as he chuckled lightly. His tail shifted beneath his coat as he watched to two girls chat. Ah, To be Young again. He made a quick glance at their surroundings. No one seemed to be paying attention. He let his hand fall from his pocket, Three blue digits clasping Zephyr's hand. " My Name is Kurt, Kurt Wagner. They-," He motioned his head towards Cable,and the Others " Call me Nightcrawler. " He Smiled warmly, his fangs brightly shining below the suns light. " It is nice to Meet you. "

xMagneto Magneto finished the song, when he felt fingertips along his shoulder. Reaching up he touched the hand, turning around in his chair to see who this individual was. Lorna. His silver blue eyes shimmered in the sunlight, as he stared at her in slight confusion. Daddy? Although he did not say that aloud, he kept her fragile hand within his aged hand. "Lorna?" Erik questioned, with sincerity in his voice. She gave a wavering smile and a tight jerk of her head in response, hoping she hadn't overstepped any boundaries. She had been nervous about what it would look like if a young girl approached an older man out of the blue with a picnic basket on her arm so she had said the first thing that popped into her stupid head. Her free hand reached up to tug on the brown locks of the wig, in fact she was pulling hard enough that even with the extra precautions she had taken a bit of the green underneath was beginning to show. xMagneto Seeing more mutants entering into the scene, just beyond the locks of brown that Lorna was wearing. He took her hand and guided Lorna to take a seat with him on the bench. Smiling towards her as he placed his hands along the keys once more. Taking a look at her surprised expression, he placed her right hand on top of his left hand as he began to play the notes to the next song. Which he thought was a fun little piece, still classic. Beethoven - Für EliseJust so that Lorna could get a feel of his hands and fingers moving in key to the notes. All the time watching Lorna's reactions, while paying attention to the notes he played. He thought of all of that, while playing the song, yet his smile never did falter. Not once. Becoming lost to the classical notes being played out into the open air. Lorna watched in amazement as her hands moved along with his and something happened. Something that didn't bring pain, humiliation or death. Something that was beautiful. And it was coming from her stained hands. Tears began to p***k at the corners of her eyes even as a slow spreading smile threatened to split her face.

"So we're old enough to be on a team and to kill people, but not old enough to go to the park in pairs? How does that work?" Zephyr asked with a frown, not understanding much of anything these crazy people seemed up to. She looked up at Kurt then, reaching to shake his hand, but pausing not only at the sight of his fangs, but the sight of his blue hand. for only a moment, it looked like it could have been a judging look, but then an excited smile crossed her face as she shook the hand. She looked around, and then leaned in to whisper. "You've got hands and teeth kinda like the Pixi I see sometimes! Are you fun like one too?" she asked, once again referring to something that was common place in her life without a single thought that they would not have the first idea what she was talking about. "Although, I haven't seen the little trouble makers in some time...I wonder what happened to them...probably hiding some other people's keys in the freezer!" she laughed, letting go of his hand. She had a bad habit of talking about the supernatural, mostly because it was the only good thing in her life she did have to talk about, so it was one of the only conversation starters she had.

Half-dozing under her tree, Cal blinked and lifted her head off her arms. Flight of the Bumblebee? Erik must love showing off. Gathering her shattered courage (as well as her bag of tricks), she climbed to her feet and walked back across the park to where the crowd gathered. Skirting the outer fringes, she dropped her bag and shoes at the trunk of the tree she'd climbed earlier and scrambled up to the sturdy branch overlooking the small area. She didn't have even the vaguest clue how the instruments had gotten there (it wouldn't have been surprising if Erik had something to do with it), but she'd never been happier to see them.
She slumped down on the branch in her Cheshire Cat pose with her chin on her hands, and smiled slightly. Her words had evidently sunk in, because she didn't see the rage or sorrow of losing his son that she had seen for days. Music was therapy at its greatest; it was self-expression and a task to focus on instead of the grief and pain. Cal wished she'd had something when her world had come falling in on her.

But that was not the only thing that sparked his interest. The way she looked at him, almost made him dizzy with anxiety. He was afraid of how she would Judge him. He did not want to be a Demon in everyone elses eyes. But to his surprise, she Smiled. That was a first for him. Ususally he scared Small children. But he smiled back, nodding to her slightly. " It's complicated mein dear child. Do not worry. "He then turned to Cable, and shook his head. " Please do not be Cross Mein Friend. It was not harming her in any way. And Maddie vas there was well. Do you know her? " He looked into Cable's eyes, trying to read his emotions.

How..." thinking for a minute best he figured somebody must have come up with some plan resurrecting him. He then continued to answer Kurt's question "If you talking about Madelyne Pryor then yes I know her...She was my mother by birth. But the title of mother isn't something she deserves, and I can never think of her in that way"

Being sincere when she said the following, *I didn't want, and don't want anything bad to happen to your daughter, Nate. What can I say? I ... I like Hope very much. And what's wrong about that?* She gave Nate a look, as she held back a laugh. Reaching up to brush some of her hair away from her face, shrugging her shoulders. *Well what can I say? People change.* She winked at him, as he looked away watching as Nightcrawler approached them. Messiah Hope Summers "I helped." Hope said instinctively, as if he almost said his thought out loud. "Jean, Madelyne and I did it. We brought him back!" Domino had a feeling about Hope. She was uncertain, the uncertainty just got proved before all just then. When Hope said she helped bring Nightcrawler back to life with the help of Jean and Madelyne. This is about to get interesting.
