Narcissa felt overly flushed... At this point, she just wished that the fading light of day would disappear and the moon would rise. It was the same thing every night, every day... But it never got any easier. Her forehead to her knees, she trembled slightly, golden hair strewn about her in a haphazard fashion...
All of the sudden, a boy appeared infront of her, and palid, cornflower blue eyes stared shocked and pained as he backed up into her. Nerve endings tingling she murmured back in what she hoped was a strong voice.. "I-It's all right...Are you.. Hurt?"
The look of sheepish panic on his face was enough to make her ask, despite the discomfort she was in..

Carlos looked around then sat and fell back staring up at the sky. His heart was a mile a minute and he needed to calm down. Hearing Narcissa's voice only made him blush and he stopped looking at her to help stop that. " I've had worse, but I guess I'm okay..." He rubbed his forehead and face still abit sore and stinging. He also choked and coughed sitting upright and pounding his chest to clear his throat. Which he soon found was dry. He coughed abit and swallowed spit, it must have gone horse when he was dreaming and screaming in teleport zone.

"You don't sound well...", her voice strained, she tried to be as kind as she possibly could. She smelled something burning, and when she realized it was the grass beside her, she snatched her hand away, staring ar the burn mark that it made. Leaning back against the tree, she focused on calming down, not allowing herself to expell the remaining sunlight that was left within her... Her body needed to make room for the moonlight. It was essentially the same thing, yet at a different scale.
Why couldn't the sun just go down already? Narcissa appeared physically ill, almost as if everything about her was fading, all color tone appearing less prominent. Yet the light that hid within her shone dimly from within, giving her a bare unearthly appearence if one looked close enough... Long tresses stirred in an invisible wind of energy.. Her body beginning to accept the change...

Carlos looked at her and thought nothing of her appearance, well he did, but he knew better then to pint something out that was both obvious and probably normal to her. He coughed once more clearing his throat finaly able to lubricate it and answered her. " I'm fine. are you okay? Didn't mean to suprise you like that... at all." He was trying still to supress his heart rate and more so his power which at about this time was groing as the ambient darkness grew with the setting sun. He stood up and started patting himself off to get grass and anything else from his landing off.
He looked back at Narcissa before sitting down pincing the ridge of his nose as he thought about what happened to him a few minutes ago. Another nightmare to overcome, and another night he migyht not be able to sleep properly. His power was noting but a curse as he saw it.

"Fine with me," said Lance, breaking his concentration only long enough to respond to the newest female member of the team. He was glad she agreed. The more people stopped messing with him, the happier they'd all be in the long run. He only roughed people up when and if they deserved it, like in the case of Damion.
The elder teen was about to finish pale-boy's trashing when Valerie, just had to chime in with her two-cents worth. 'Just calm down' she said, 'a higher man would!' Once again, completely pointless information. Lance had made up his mind that he was going to squash this boy, and when he made a decision, he stuck to it. The motherly-like wisdom coming from the blond team-mate wasn't going to effect anything.
"Sorry, Blondie," he said, turning away from Damion to look at the blond, who was now in her water form, next to him. Silently, he wondered who she thought she was, talking down to him in a 'big sister, little brother' sort of way. But that, he figured, was a problem to deal with another day, he still had Damion on a string here and he wanted to get it over with. Maybe then Valerie would stop nipping around him like a lost puppy.
Lance turned his head to look back at Damion's pathetic form...only to find that he wasn't there. Or maybe not. After taking a better look, however, Lance saw that there was a large flat shadow perched flat on top on the rock pedestal before him. Lance growled and the ground twinged once again to reflect his rage. Though Damion was only prolonging his impending doom, Lance was reluctant to admit that he had been outsmarted for the time being.

"I'm all right...", Narcissa spoke in her usual calm tones, feeling the sense of sickness begin to ebb away.'I'll be allright', she assured herself, as the fire in her blood began to lessen as a comforting coolness began to replace what would look like a fevor. Though her paleness did not improve.. She emenated the rising light of the moon that her body absorbed..
Narcissa relaxed easily against the tree for the first time in half an hour, her own heart thudding in her ears. Blue eyes surveyed her fellow student that seemed to dwarf her... "What.. happened? You just...', her nose scrunched up slightly as she spoke. "Appeared?"

Kevin was really curious to where they all were going. It appered thet Victoria was in charge of deciding where they were going. It was just rightful for her to decide. She came up with the idea. But maybe Morgan, the driver, had an idea. Even Raz, Kitty, or Kurt had an idea since any of them had been here longer than him. He decided it was best to ask everyone. "So where are we going? What clubs, parties, and Ice Cream (they were going to get ice cream too) places are there?"

Damion smiled. Of course noone else could tell he was smiling so luckily Lance would not be able to get any more angry about it. He had just thought of the perfect payback. Of course that would have to wait until the imediate danger had passed. How was he going to get out of that immediate danger again anyway. Damion had to admit he was not the best fighter in the world. However, his intelect alowed him to use what fighting skills he DID have to the next level. Besides, it would be getting dark out soon and if Lance did not hurry his a** up he would be dealing with another propblem entirely.
Damion shot forward his speed practically double what it would have been at a full speed charge. He would go right under Lancie boy's feet expanding his mass into a large black void right beneath Lance no longer apearing to have a humanoid form at all. He was not entirely sure of what his plan was yet but at least Lance could not hurt him without chaneling the earth that Damion was atached to. It would give him some forewarning of what was to come-if not much.

"hello," she said sleepaly. he explained the Doc's way to help her with her powers. he was a liitle skidish about it. she'd heard some nasty stories about psycics and then enetering your mind. but she figures a mutant like the prof could have easly just don't it with out her permission she she firgured it was ok. "Its safe you say?.... I still don'know... Darius... what do you think?" "well its you head... i just want you to feel better." dairus replied 'i hope what ever the doc got up his sleeve works...i don't like seeing kidd get hurt...damn i wish i could do something to help!' he keeped out of the way he didn't want to chance of distracting the professer and/or kidd. he felt a little akward sanding around in this tense, for him and deffently kidd, silence.

Kidd smirked at Darius and held out her hand. "Darius would you Mind holding my hand, i don't want to get lost." Kidd smiled and nodded to the professor to start. she tensed up and tried to keep her mind calm and her powers at bay, but she could feel that familiar building in her . her feet went numb.

"Well I'll take that as a big screw you Valerie!"
The Blonde watery figure snapped to the male and spun around to face away from Lance with an angry expression on her face, why did some men have to arrogant and always ready to fight, Shrugging her shoulders slightly she decided to let the pig headed two fight it out
Walking away from Lance to the far side of the pool which was now filled back with water she plopped herself down and dipped her watery feet into the water merging slightly with it, a few moments later she withdrew them with an exagerated miffed look on her face
"I forgot Toad was just in there!"
She giggled as best she could while being in a pissed off mood.

It's easier that way some times." She said sagely. She looked at the pool. "Might want to have that professionally cleaned now."

Carlos looked up at Narcissa and let his hand drop from his face as he listened to her statements and questions. He then raised a borw then went alittle wide eyed. " oh... I uhhh... teleport in the worst way.... lets leave it at that." He wasn't in too much of a mood to discuss his powers at this time. He brought his hands together as he twiddled his thumbs. He removed his shades and pocketed them again. His eyes were eerie, they glowed dimly a deep crimson like a beast in the dark. The shade of the tree from the lunar light only enhanced that look. He was highly aware of this effect. It happens at night, the same way his power seems to increase. This isn't too bad, there is a moon. On nights when of the new moon he had to deal with a constant nightmare, his power so out of control he couldn't fully supress it and had a dark aura around him the entire night. His mother had to sedate him one night to keep the family safe.

They were quite frankly, polar opposites...Most normally, people felt her before they saw her. She emitted a warmth that few missed, and as such, her presence was noticed by those even without the x-gene. Her presence was enormous, unsettling, the sun and the moon in the same dark sky. Sitting so near to Carlos, felt like something should have been forcing them apart... It was the feeling of two north magnets being forced together, a feeling of impending explosion…
They were snow falling on the hottest day of summer, the taste of bitter chocolate and cream, the scent of metal and lavender… It was hard to think of… But somehow, through his darkness, she noticed that neither did he repel her, nor she him. It was hard to wrap her mind around, and although it was easy to see that his eyes were glowing red, it was not as easy accept that her eyes were not deceiving her.
And so it was, that he no longer had to explain his powers to her… She could feel the faint fringe of darkness around him, and suddenly did not wish to know. “Oh.”
Drawing her knees back up to her chest, her gaze followed the last of the vestiges of the sunset fading behind the trees… The moonlight washed over the grass, giving it a faintly blue hue. “Do you wish… Sometimes that you were normal?”

Carlos glanced over to her for only a second as he thought about his answer for her new question. It was a touchy subject he was sure for every mutant. He doubled the answer and was ready to give it to her. " Sometimes... but not really. It's a pain, I'm always afraid, but Both my parents are mutants also. So it was kinda only 50-50 I would become one eitherway. I guess, it's something I'd have to live with. So what if I scare people away or give them bad dreams or cause insanity. Their are worse people out there with the same power. Me getting mine is just evening the odds...."
He said all that as sincerly as he could muster. He wasn't too sure he himself was honest with is answer but he hoped it satisfied her curiousity. He layed back down and looked up into the leaves of the tree trying to think more. He wasn't dodging avoiding, or ignoring her, HE was just trying to be polite and not stare to make her feel insecure, especialy with his closet monster eyes.
