For once Penny wasn't worried about being an X-Man and shook her head, "If something bad was going to happen, Jean would already know. For once, let's leave it for the X-Men. Let's just be kids tonight."
"You really going to take your own advice?" Jacen asked.
Penny smiled and pushed her hair behind her ears as best she could, "Until something big and ugly crashes through the door or our limo roof or the Institute gates since apparently Xavier has a big KICK ME sign attached to it."
There was still that weird tension... the one where Penny knew that on almost any other day on the battle field she and Jacen would probably be at each other's throat. It was like a great eternal conflict in the back of her brain. The one she goes through everyday when she tells herself she doesn't want to be an X-Man but then leads her team through successful missions.
"Do you dance?" She asked and Jacen shrugged. Talking was almost pointless since most of them had to scream over a very loud speaker.
"Neither do I, let's go," She grabbed Jacen's hand and went to lead him to the crowd of students on the floor.

He shoved his hands into his pockets. Lord he couldn't shake that uneasy feeling he had. He walked past a school. "Hmmm...Prom night I see...." He frowned having never been to a prom before. He glanced at his attire, a pair of black jeans and a somewhat battered leather jacket. "Looks like I never will...oh well...." He shrugged and kept walking stopping for a moment to watch the comings and goings of the students. Being a people watcher he was perfictly content to relax there for a moment having spent most of the day walking. "Why didn't I just jack a car or something...." He mumbled to himself.

"Hello, Blair." Teagan said, smiling shyly at him. She wasn't exactly
the best at meeting new people.
"I'm Teagan. And I'm new here, also." She said, taking another sip
of her punch. She glanced around the room quickly, before looking
back over to Blair.
"Being new and Prom don't mix very well, do they?" She laughed,
placing her punch cup down on the food table. She crossed her arms
over her chest, a small chill running up her spine.
She was still rather regretting coming tonight, perhaps it was because
of the tension she could feel building in the room.

jake walked around the outside of the school, he had used a little of his power to speed him up outside normal time so that he could move around without dealing with others, he had seen somebody in the shadows but since they were not moving he paid them no mind and kept walking until he felt something pulling on him so he dropped out of alternate time and looked around
"is somebody here?" jake asked walking toword the shadows "hello...i thought i saw somebody" he couldnt tell if he was going mad or if he saw somebody that was in alternate time

((Gah! *swirly eyes* Won't be on tomorrow or Saturday; I have pre-op and surgery. What fun. I'll post something now though. LadyJedi-I have an idea. If you want, I can PM it to you. P.S. I think I'm going to use Katori as my second character; the evil canine mutant hunter.))
Grrr...
Katori lifted his muzzle up, darting from the Brotherhood and padding lightly towards the building he received a strange sensation from. It was as if...something was going to happen shortly. He could feel it; almost an electrical current going through the genetically altered canine's body.
They...were they actually going to come? What were they planning...?
Suddenly arriving at the Prom, Katori stopped and looked around. His ears twitched a few times; the scent of mutants crossing his muzzle. Growling bitterly...he moved a few steps before he heard someone say...
"Hey, what's this dog doing here?"
One slanted ice blue eye spotted the human who had spoken; and he growled once again. A warning; he didn't have time for this. But the growl caught the attention of others, and...
((Eh, I have to get off, but I'll leave this off for whomever wants to continue it. RP later then.))

He looked over at the guy talking to nothing...or he thought it was nothing. "Ummm....hey buddy, there's nothing there..." He looked closer at the shadows getting an odd feeling about them. I think it's time to move on....

The white and silver furred ex-mutant hunter finally snarled deeply, immediately regretting the action as it received even more attention then he had before. s**t. Those ears flattened tightly against his head, he backed away, eventually hiding under a table laden with drinks and food. Only Katori's muzzle peeked from it; he wasn't going to leave without a fight. Instinct prevailed over all...something bad was going to happen on this eve and it was going to involve them....

"Excuse us, pardon us, get the hell out of our way," Jacen was heard to be saying as he was half lead/half dragged out to the dance floor. And people did move, the scared cattle that they were. Soon enough, both of the teenage mutants were in the middle of the dance floor cutting a proverbial rug.
"HA!!," Jacen exclaimed as the music's tempo took and upswing, "This is rather fun!!" And it was. He'd never done this before, this dancing. For the most part during his formative teenage years, he was being molded into the perfect foot soldier, a one man infantry unit if you will. He never had the time nor the energy to dance.
Whilst they were dancing, Jacen kept catching himself stealing glances at Penance. It wasn't but twenty-four hours ago that she looked somewhat conservative, but now; she was damn near stunning. It was a shame that somewhere down the line, he was probably going to have to fight her again. A damn shame indeed.
He shook that notion out of his head when the music took another shift and slowed way down. "Ma'am?," Jacen asked as he extended his hand to Penance, letting her know that he wasn't adverse to at least one slow dance for the evening.
"You know," Jacen said somewhat quietly to Penance as they danced, "I honestly don't think there is much need for pretense anymore."
"What do you mean?," she asked.
"Well," he said speaking up a bit. The music had gotten a tad louder. "As it is, we go under the pretenses of calling each other by these codenames that we are given or nicknames that we've given ourselves....." Penance nodded. "Well....I think it'd be proper if we'd abandon said pretenses....."
Jacen smiled. The most sincere and honest smile he had given anyone in as long as he could remember. "That being said," Jacen continued as he looked at Penance, "I must say, you look positively stunning tonight, Evelyn."

OOC: Ah to be 17 again... This is already more fun than my senior prom. Going stag was so not fun. Loser b/f... had to not go cause his mommy said so despite being 20... Nooo I'm not bitter wink
IC:
Penny's cheeks were kind of hot for a moment, she knew she was blushing and couldn't help it. That was probably the nicest thing anybody had said to her in the longest time. Okay, the sweetest thing. "Thank you, Jacen. I think you look quite handsom yourself, but call me Evie," She said, "My grandmother was Evelyn."
"Okay, then, Evie," he nodded as they danced with the rest of the crowd to a very... okay rendition of Aerosmith's I don't wanna miss a thing. Not that she really noticed. Her mind was focused on Jacen. She caught herself at a complete loss for words. Not out of that weirdness from earlier but out of a different feeling coming over her.
"Why Penance?" He asked her, "What are you penetant for?"
"Not me, my mother," She said looking sad for a moment thinking about her, "When she died, I caught a fleeting thought. It was a reminder to her that she felt guilty about keeping her secrets from my father... kind of a sick joke... she called me Evie. When I lost her I became somebody completely different."
"Penny," He said and she nodded and said a quiet 'yeah.' Funny how it all worked. This was the first person she ever told that too. Not Regina. Not Anna. Not Xavier. Penance, Penny, was a front to keep back every pain in her life that she wanted to keep distant. It becamse such a front that it really did become her life and became the reason she is conflicted.
"Her guilt shouldn't be yours."
Penny smiled trying her best not to tear up at all. All that for a name, "Ca we change the subject, Jacen? You're very good at this."
"At what?"
"Dancing," She leaned her head on his shoulder to finish out the dance. it was nice. For the smallest of times she was able to block out everything she could hear, smell, and sense around her. This moment mattered more.
Of course, that ended when Principle Kelly coughed into a microphone.
"AHEM! LADIES AND GENTELMEN MAY I HAVE YOUR ATTENTION. VOTING FOR PROM KING AND QUEEN WILL BEGIN AT THE BACK OF THE GYMNASIUM. RESULTS WILL BE ANNOUNCED IN AN HOUR. ALSO, BY TRADITION I HAVE TO ANNOUCE THAT PIETRO MAXIMOFF WON THE STUDENT COUNCIL ELECTION AND WILL BE YOUR PRESIDENT. BY TRADITION, REGINA COLT WILL BE THE VICE PRESIDENT. THANK YOU!"
"He knows how to ruin a party," Penny said disappointed that Regina lost.

He shrugged and started to walk away. He had better things to do than watch people have a good time. What you might ask? Finding himself a place to stay while he was in town. Sleeping in the great outdoors is fun, but it wears thin really fast....

Regina sighed. "Stupid election. I really didn't need to be reminded about that."
"You gave it your best shot yes? That's what counts." Kurt reminded her, sticking to the dancing while he also eyed the food.
"I know. But this was supposed to be a night where you forgot about most of the real world." she watched him and grinned. "You hungry again? I swear you're worse than Penny."
"Yeah, I know." Lance looked back at noko. "It's just hard. I like her. It's not just the whole... she's cute. She's got a great personality and she's fun. When she wants to be."

Two lone bikers made their way along the streets, one's bike was pure black, and the others was a dark green. As they approached the school, the one one the black bike waved and slowed down to turn into the parking lot, as the other one said, "see ya at the insitute," through their helmet com system, then continued toward Xiaver's school for the gifted.
The biker that went into the parking lot parked up in front, next to the school, and got off. He took his helmet off, revealing the face of a older teen, about 19, and placed it on a hook on the side of his bike. He then took out the key and pressed a button on the key chain, causing the tires and axles to lock up. He was about to go into the building when he saw a very exspensive, red viper. He walked over to it and look at it.
"Oh, i know you," he said as he regonized a few features in the car, "your owner a racist a**." he walked over to the hood of the car and phased his hand through it, fiddled around for a moment and then pulled it out, a spark plug with it, he had also disconected the battery. "Try leaving without those pig," the teen said as he turned and walked toward the building thinking, Xiaver's not going to like that, but it was worth it.
As he stood outside the door, he asked himself, "Why do I have to go on babysitting duty?" With that, he turned invisible, cloths and all, and opened the door, making it look like a gust of wind had blown it open. He wasn't worried about psychics, the layer of metal around his skull kept them out, he was worried about what these kids could possible need to be pretected from, it would have to be major if a group of mutants couldn't handle it.........
