Sith Lord Darth Moren {Yes, it would. I think. I don't remember all the details of the episode, but Magneto gets Scott and his brother (I forgot his real name, but his nickname is Havoc) to come to Asteroid M. He has this chamber filled with some weird crystal that supercharges their powers, and gives them complete control over them. Scott can open his eyes without the blast knocking a hole in any nearby walls, and Havoc doesn't need to wear special gloves. Needless to say, Scott and Havoc turn evil for a while, and get white hair along with their control over their powers. Eventually, they use their combined powers to force the asteroid back into orbit, or something like that. Of course, the crystals are destroyed in the process, and their powers revert to normal. Anyways, that's what I remember. Hawksmoor could probably tell you more about it. Now to follow up Morgan's revelation. w00t. Can Pietro run through a forcefield, even with his new powers? And this might be a chance for Ares to make another appearance. I said might.} OOC: Heh... you poor Marvel boys have no idea what superspeed can do. Now me, I've taken some notes from the flash. You know, the guy who can make his molecules vibrate fast enough to move through matter. But don't worry, I have better ideas than that... so just post! I wanna fight!

OOC: So basically, my "shadow" has been left out in the garden (which is very good lol). I'll try to make him move just to mess you all up. Bwhahahaha!
IC: He grinned to himself as he easily sneaked into the mansion. Everyone was too busy going to bed or figuring out what was going on in the mansion to pay attention to him. He walked calmly in the corridors and encountered Jubilee. Sadly for her, she never knew what hit her. She barely had time to open her mouth that she fell on the floor like an empty shell and stopped moving.
"It's too easy..." he only said without stopping to take a look at his victim.
OOC: Bwhahaha! Just to give you at least the chance to do something about him, I'll stop here. I just hope Jubilee wasn't somewhere else. razz

For the past day, a strange wind seemed to travel intelligently about the walls of the Xavier school. Pietro took delight in his new speed. moving faster and with greater agility than ever before. In fact, it was almost as if he was no longer moving at super speed. Rather, he moved normally, and everyone around him moved so slow they might as well have been standing still.
His speed dispersed his scent too finely for even Wolverine to notice, and the neural scrambler on his head kept Jean and Xavier out of his mind. Indeed, the only evidence that anyone was there at all was the slowly emptying kitchen, which, in the course of a single day, was stripped bare.
All the while, his father's commands ran calmly in Pietro's head. Seek out one of their strongest, and break him. Let them know that our rivalry is no longer a game...

Two other figures sneak in too. One was stressed as hell but kept it hidden under a cool mask while the other one looked around in hope to stop her brother soon and hurt him. Badly.
"Where is he?" Wanda whispered to Freya.
"He's going toward the professor's room."
"And where is that?"
"This way."
Freya took Wanda's hand and lead her to the office. It was dark so they did not saw Jubilee's body nor trip over it. They found the door of this office slightly opened. Wanda escaped from Freya's graps and kicked the door opened before sending the books from the librairy flying fiercly across the room in hope to hit Pietro but the only victim was the professor who fell on the floor after three big encyclopedias.
"What have you done?!" couldn't help to yell Freya.
"I... I thought..."
"You KILLED professor Xavier! Even I can't get us out of this mess!"
Somehow Wanda didn't thought Freya could get them out of anything except an asylum.

ooc: dun dun dun!!! wow, this is really going to be some plot. O.O i don't think pietro was going after xavier but that's some plot twist... hm.
Gen looked down the hall at the sudden noise. "Hey... Alanna was it? Did you hear something?"
Something didn't feel right. She wasn't sure what, but it seemed like evil was beginning to permiate the whole mansion. The place felt safe before they walked into the danger room but once they had walked out... It was eerie. And she was starting to get worried, snow slowly began drifting down.

ooc: no worries kadiska. good to kno wyou're alive though. ^_^
ic:
Regina and Penny made it to the hospital in record time, somehow avoiding all speed traps on their way to the building. Penny quietly announced to the nurse at the station that she was there as a member of the senator's family to be tested. As the nurse headed off to get somoene for the testing, they sat down.
"You can squeeze my hand if you get in too much pain." Regina offered. "I know you're tough but even you have to get your pain out somehow. Whatever they do... hey, maybe it won't be bad at all!" she added, laughing at Penny's face. "Don't worry about it...."
"Yeah... easy for you to say..." Penny sighed, watching some show that was on the television.
"I'll get tested too, how's that? Even though there's like a 1 in 100000000 chance I'd be a match, I'll let them test me too." Regina said, patting her hand. "Then we can both say we've been tested before."
"You don't need to do that..." Penny blinked at Regina, wondering what was going on in her head.
"I don't have to, but it'll give us both a reason to stay together in this place." she whispered. "I'm not real keen on the idea that they figure out who we are... and isolating us for tests or something."
"Good point..." they waited a while longer until a couple of nurses ushered them back to the testing area.

Scion was given all the details of where he had to be. He was told there was a contact already scouting the place out, and was given a simple schematic of the facility. Where he was going was rather odd though. A rundown nuclear facility that was located fifty miles northeast of Moscow. The contact did send word that there were United States and Russian troops both working together at said facility as well.
"You both have two hours to complete this task," Magneto said as the orb's hatch closed before sending Scion back to Earth.
I wonder who he has here...., Scion thought as he trudged through the dense, snow-covered forest. He was put about two miles away from his destination. Not far enough for it to be a long hike, but far enough to be undetected.
He picked the pace up a bit and made it to a small clearing on the edge of the facility, and rested for a second. He was bumming that he forgot his cigs at home...not that he could carry them anyways.
"Magneto sends only his very best, eh mon ami?," a thick Cajun accented voice said from behind Scion.
"Always does, does he not?," Scion said while extending his hand out to shake his friend's. On a cursory thought, he didn't. He forgot about the gauntlets he was wearing. "Le Beau, what are we facing here?"
"Same ol', same ol'. Joint U.S. and Russian op. Sentinel factory. Hush-hush, and totally off the radar," Gambit stopped for a second. "Word has it that they've got some of us in there, too."
"Wouldn't doubt it, those government bastards." Jacen looked at his old friend for a second. "Hey. Bum me a smoke. I have a feeling I'm gonna need to chill out for a second before we head in there."
"Like it's not chilled out here enough, mon ami," Le Beau said as he tossed Scion a cig and lighter. They knew that once the ritual smoke was out of the way, there was work to be done.

OOC: Sorry for any confusion, her dad is a big will CEO of a fortune 500 marketing firm not a senator smile We'll get home soon to partake in the fun. And to anybody who missed Emperor Penguin Reaver, I'm sorry for you smile
IC:
"Both of you can stay in this room. This shouldn't take too long," The nurse was very pleasant. Penny guessed that the hospital was being overly nice to donors for her dad since his company probably donated a considerable sum of money.
Penny felt kind of bad that Regina was going to go through this too, but she completely respected her friends wishes and stopped trying to talk her out of it. Not many people were that good of a friend. Funny, Penny had never ever known anybody aside from her mother or Xavier who would do something like that for her. Her mother always said to keep good friends close and treat them well when you find them, they're a rare bread.
"If it's not too much trouble," Penny said as they both where handed those tacky hospital gowns to put on. In about five minutes both were on their own hospital bed in the same room. Penny laid on her side as a nurse stood behind her with the needle of doom. They didn't like. It hurt like a b***h. Her goddamn father better appreciate it. She grabbed onto the rail of the bed and squeezed it so tight her ring started to draw blood from her palm. Regina held out her hand and Penny instinctively grabbed it.
When it was over, Regina went through the same thing. She had a pretty good grip and Penny's fingers felt like they were turning purple. Not that she was going to complain, she probably could have broken Regina's hand. Penny and Regina sat in the waiting room alternating at rubbing the spot that the needle had stuck. Mostly, they were waiting for Penny to gain her own nerve back up, "Sorry, Reg, family gets me all weak in the knees."
"We all have to have our weaknesses. Yours are chocolate, bungee jumping, and family."
Penny nodded, "True enough. Dammit, what am I afraid of. It's not like I can be excommunicated more from the Chayse family name."
[OOC: I don't know how long it takes to get test results like that back so we'll pretend.]
They took the elevator up to the sixth floor where her father was roomed. She hadn't seen the man in a year. She hadn't spoken to the man much in four years. She hated him with almost every fiber of her being... except that part that was raised by her mother and taught her to love everybody despite their flaws. They walked down the hallway and stopped short as they heard the doctor say: "We found a match."
Penny peeked through the doorway. Her father looked so ill, smaller and weaker that she had ever seen him. She wanted to keep hating him so badly and blaming him for everything she had hardships with. But at that moment, she couldn't hate him anymore.
"Do we know who it is?" Dawn asked curiously. The girl had tears in her eyes as their mother was sobbing.
"Yes, the donor gave their name," The doctor said.
Penny had thought about being anonymous, but she didn't do it. She wanted her father to know that she was the hand that held his life if that came to be. And it turned out, she was. Not that she expected it to be any other way. That wasn't the way the world worked.
"Evie," Dawn said with a grin when she leaned against the doorway.
"Dawn," She smiled, "Dad."
"What are you doing here?" He said and Penny was surprised that he had actually sounded relieved that she was there. No anger, just genuine surprise. Maybe, just maybe he realized he was a jerk about her being a mutant and about how he treated her as a whole.
"I got a phone call that I needed to show up..." Penny said.
"I didn't think you would come," Dawn said and then squeeked quiet when she gave away that she had called Penny.
"Don't be mad at her, she did the right thing," Penny said before her step mother could open her mouth, "But it's your choice Dad. I'm willing to do this for you because it's the right thing."
"What do you want from him in return?" Her step mother said because she was the most narrow minded person in the world.
"Nothing, lady. I just want my sister's to have their dad, that's all."

Ah snow, Alanna liked that. She was able to see forms now around the Institute. Well, she kind of felt bad because that meant Gen was probably worried. She did, too, hear the commotion going on.
"Maybe we should go downstairs," Alanna said not wanting to ignore it and then feel bad later for not helping when help was needed. She put her hand on Gen's arm, "I'm sorry. Do you mind leading the way?"
"Oh, no," Gen seemed startled at the request.
"I'm kind of blind in this place. I can only see when there's a lot of nature around... it's life force in a way shows me what I need to see," Alanna never knew how to explain it but it made sense in her own head.
"Snow help?" Gen asked.
"Definately," She said as they started to decend down the stairs. The combination of her own fear and the cold Gen was permiating started to turn Alanna's eyes ice blue and her hair started to turn seven shades of grey. They started to walk towards Xavier's office where the commotion was.

OOC: I'm gonna post us to the house Noko. That way Kadiska can have people to rp with, and we can get that house fixed....although we wouldn't have to if it wasn't for someone....*looks at Inuki*
IC:: John and Noko finally came upon the house, when John noticed Noko was giving him a glare. "What?" He saked. She pointed to the house in reponse. He looked up to see that the house was still torn appart. "Oh that," he replied, ?This time it wasn't me. It was Wanda...apprently Toad pissed her off again and she brought down the house because of it." She just shook her head in reply. When they stepped into the houseJohn saw two things that made him stare. First was a girl sitting on the couch, he'd never seen her before. She had some injuries, but still she was a stranger. The secnond thing he noticed was that Avalanche was back, and that he was just sitting around with the Toad and Blob. "So did you get the money, Avalanche?" John asked. "Yeah it was no problem, he said with a laugh. "Oh and this is Jacen's friend,"he said as in after thought, waving his hand towards the girl. "Cool," John replied simply, "I'll call up a construction crew right now to come and fix up the house." after making the call and telling them what needed to be done, John turned around and faced the girl. "Hello, my names John, and this is my girlfriend Noko." He said, introducing himself to the girl.

ooc: lol... *just watching the banter and is amused* XD
ic:
Regina watched quietly from the doorway. Her father didn't seem like such a bad guy but the lady that was likely his wife was grating on her last nerve. And all the nerves that were currently burning in pain due to the testing. It turned out she was a match for another deathly ill person, a young girl that needed it. She willingly gave it over, glad that the pain had been of some assisstance to someone other htan comfort to a friend.
"Take a pill lady, and share while you're at it." Regina growled out softly. "We came to help, because unlike some people... we're not heartless and want something in return all the time."
"Regina." Penny scolded, but not nearly as much as if she had been seriously mad. It was obvious how much she disliked the woman as well.
"Sorry. There's some people I just can't stand..." Regina let it fall to the floor, hoping the woman got the hint.
Gen headed slowly to the professor's office, wondering where everyone else was. She wasn't ready for any kind of fight, she knew that much. The snow kept falling as they walked. It was beginning to fill the hallway so that they struggled somewhat. Taking a few deep breaths, she tried to control the fall to a very soft and slow pattern. Once she had gotten control of it, they inched closer to the door.

"It's okay," Penny left the room to talk to one of the doctors about what was going to happen next, "I would have said it myself eventually. She's really probably the reason my dad was such a jerk now that I'm thinking about it."
Dawn came out of the room after Penny holding their littlest sister, Avril, in her arms. Giving them both a hug, Penny picked up Avril. Dawn looked a bit frightened by something, "Hey, Penny, can I show you something."
"Yea sure," Penny was a bit concerned by her sister's tone. Did their mother do something?
Regina and Penny found a small waiting room that had no guests in it. She watched as Dawn sat on the floor with Avril who was asking her sister questions in the random sentences she could say. "Can we play? Make the ball?"
"Okay, Ball, Avril," Dawn said and Avril held out her palms and formed a little ball out of golden energy. She tossed it to Dawn who could levitate it above her hand. Penny almost died laughing: their mother's worst fear had come true. They both were mutants.
"That's so great, Dawn," Penny said with a smile. Avril tried tossing Penny and Regina a ball but it desolved in their hands. That meant that Dawn and Avril's abilites were tied together somehow.
"I can't make a ball," Dawn said, "But anything she makes I can levitate in my hands. I can't really do it with anything else. I almost moved a spoon once... but I don't know how to make it work."
"Well, Dawn, when it's time... I know people who can teach you how it works," Penny told her and she meant it. She doubted they would be living at the Institute anytime soon, but at least her sister would know that she had a home if things got rough, "Did you tell Alicia yet?"
"No, I'm scared to. Avril doesn't do it near her," Dawn said and started to tear up, "I'm afraid she'll make me go away like she made you go away."
Penny's expresion was of confusion. Her father was the one that sent her packing. He's the one that handed her the keys and told her to get out. Why would Dawn say that? "What do you mean? Dad made me leave."
"Nut uh," Dawn said, "Mom said if he didn't make you go, then she would take us away. I heard her. Dad has been really sad but doesn't want to see us go away."
"Wise beyond your years," Penny said and gave her sister a hug. She felt like a real a** at that moment, "She can't send you away and she won't. We're going to tell her. You won't be able to hide it forever and its not something to be ashamed of."
"It's not? Why did she make you leave?" Dawn asked.
"Because people fear what they don't understand, Dawny," Penny said and looked at Regina, "This girl here can walk into shadows and come out down the hall. That freaks people out who don't get it."
"Now probably isn't the best time," Regina reminded and Penny agreed, "You should wait until your father is better. He's going to have a fight on his hands if your mother is as bad as she seems."
"Yea, you keep this a secret for now, Dawn. I will help you tell her when the time is right," Penny said. She gave both her sisters a hug and walked them out of the waiting room. A doctor came over to Penny and asked her if she could stay to have the proceedure done. It would be an outpatient proceedure but she'd have to go under general anesthesia.
"You mind staying?" She asked Regina.
