Welcome to Gaia! ::

Waiting in line was fairly boring and tedious. Looking at the clock it felt like an eternity. " we need to hurry before john blows his top if you get my drift. " she said not really caring if gen heard her or not. Looking down at her watch she sighed. The line was long and she had the uneasy feeling of being watched. Trying to brush it off her attention was turned to a fight brewing. " great. " she muttered watching to see if it was any of the brotherhood members and fortunantly it was just some punk kids.

The punk kids however had different ideas. The fight spilled into the line leaving people bruised battered and noko and gen sprawled on the floor before the kids ran down the aisle after one and other. Groaning she looked up at the ceiling. " s**t.." she said as she stood up. Taking her coat off to check for bruising or anything. Instead she frowned as she watched a large gash on her shoulder suddenly nit up go to a scratch and vanish. " im loosing controll" she though to herself. Shed need to get rid of one power and get another one in to manage the second one.

"We need to hurry before John flows his tip if you get my drift" Noko said to Gen

And she was right. John had been patient because of the fact that he was around four girls. And seeing as everyone in the group, himself included, need some clothes he was able to put up with it a lot longer than usual. But it was going on three hours, and his temper was slowly rising. He had two other things on his mind at the time. Finding a new place to crash for the night, and getting Hell his new gun. Getting the gun would be easy, he knew an excelent place for that. As for another place to sleep... well he wasn't too sure about that one. But he was sure that he wasn't gonna sleep in a van with 11 other people. He was just about to tell Noko that they need to hurry up when he saw her fall to the floor. He looked up in time to see some crazy kids running around causing trouble. Neither of the three boys had decided to see if Noko or Gen were hurt over even say sorry.

John droped the bags. He turned to face the other brotherhood memebers, and motioned to a fallen Noko. "That is the worst possible thing you can do in front of me," he said to them with fire in his eyes. He turned to Noko and helped her up, and then did the same wth Gen. "I'll be back," he said. Taking out his lighter he took off ater the three guys. It wasn't hard to find them, they hadn't left the store and they were still causing trouble knocking things over and basically acting crazy. Without a word to anyone of them John light his lighter and shot a fireball at each kid. That'll get them to stop, he thought to himself. And he was right. The first kid instantly realized that his pants on fire. He was scrabling to take them off but the fire was too hot for him and was racing up his body. It was the same for the second kid, he was in no better postion, as for the thrid kid. It took him a second.

The thing about him that had caught John's eye was his Giant afro. So that's where he'd decided to start the fire from. The kid eventually figured it out, and started going crazy too. John stood there laughing at the kids. He was finally having a good time until Noko came up to him and said 'stop it' John stopped laughing and looked at her. "Party pooper," he said, but before he put out the fire on the boys he decided to pull on last trick. And seein s by now most of the people in the store were looking, he had to do it. Focusing his mind the fire seemd to engulf all three boys completely. "John Allerdyce.." Noko said in a warning tone. "Alright fine." John said. He focused his mind again and the fire burned itself out. The boys had a few first degree burns, but that wasn't what was catching everyones attention. What everyone was noticing was the whole picture; a pile of ashes surronding three completely naked boys. John looked at Noko. "Happy now?" he asked with an evil smile on his face.

"No, everythings fine," lied Victoria, quickly putting a smile across her face. Turning away she looked out the window to aviod more questions. Just then it occured to her that maybe Regina didn't know she was on the Brotherhood side of the equasion. Even though it was unlikely that Regina would snap and beat the crap out of her just for that, but Victoria couldn't help but feel like a traitor to her own team for hanging with her. Feeling a little down she slid a little bit lower in her seat as the X-mansion and all it's wonders finally came into view.

"Uuummm....sure alright." He said managing to tug himself free. Goodness she was friendly. He almost chuckled and he walked out to see whom was approaching the school. He kept his hands in his pockets...it was still a bit chilly out despite the loverly weather.

Noko sighed inwardly and gave him the dirtiest look she could manage, and that wasnt to dirty as she absolutely loved it when he got protective. Who knew that pyro could make someone feel warm and fuzzy. Digging in her purse she gave him a bit of a look. " Here are the keys. Pick us up when your done. We have to get clothes and stuff. Just go get what you need. " she said referring to any weapons they might get. " youve got my cell number just call when your on your way. " she glanced over at gen. " if all goes well we should be done and we can walk to the Dungeon its not to far. "

he finshes his bruger, gets up, pays, and goes out side. i need new shoes he thought as he looked at his worn down shoes while sipping on his soda. he sighed as he walkes in to the shoe store.
(he is at the mall)

he walks out of the shoe store wearing a cool new pair of shoes and walks around looking at all the other stores. after a whille he decieds to see a movie. darn nothing i want to see... stare i wish i had some friends neutral he thought as he begain his long loney trip back to the mansion.

Victoria jerked forward in her seat as Regina suddently decided to slam on the breaks and pull over into the side of the road. She was about to ask what was up when Regina wheeled around and everything that was on her mind spilled out at once. Sitting up, Victoria blinked once and shook her head slightly just to make sure she was really hearing what she thought she was hearing.

"Wa..wait a second," sputtered Victoria, waving her hands in front of her as if it would make everything go way, "you said you're game, right? Yeah, OK, then...you wanna hear what's on my mind then here it is. First off," she said making counting off points on her fingers, "I'm a Brotherhood gal, plan and simple. That may be a 'shocker' to you or not, but they're my family because we all believe differantly then you X-guys do. Secondly, the fact that my "family" practically abandoned me, leaving me to rot in this damn mansion without any possible way of contacting them is really making me wonder if I'm really 'one of them' or not. And thirdly," she finished, "the fact that you're an X-man and you were a friend to me despite which team I might belong to, is actually making me think that you guys aren't really as bad as I thought you were." Now finished with her speel, Victoria collapsed back in her seat, glad that she had finally gotten all of that off her chest.
