Welcome to Gaia! ::

Rogue had been out of town the last few days visiting her Aunt Carrie. She'd had an enjoyable visit, but was glad to be on her way home. She zipped down the highway on Logan's motorcycle, which he'd been nice enough to loan her for the trip. It was all his idea. Originally, she was going to take one of the spare cars, but he'd asked her what the point of one person taking a huge car was. When she couldn't give him a good enough answer, he'd offered her the bike. She'd gladly accepted and the rest was history.

She'd been on the road for a couple of days now, and was on the outskirts of Bayville. As she approached a gas station, she checked the tank and saw that there was a quarter left. Remembering that Logan had told her to bring it back full, she pulled in and filled up. Quickly running inside, she payed the clerk and then was on her way.

The city passed by in a blur of color, and soon, Rogue was headding up the winding road towards the mansion. The landscaping prevented her from getting a good look at the house until she was quite close, so she didn't see the damage until she pulled into the circle drive. She couldn't believe what her eyes were showing her. She blinked hard to make sure she was seeing things right. She was. The mansion was a wreck. There'd obviously been a huge battle while she'd been gone. But what puzzled her the most was why she hadn't been called home or at least been given a heads up. She pushed the kickstand into place and swung herself off the motorcycle.

"What happened here?" She muttered to herself, still dumbfounded at the state of the premises. She walked up the front stairs and into the house looking for any signs of her friends.

Damion was somewhat fazed by the fact that Lance did not want to pound him. Just when he thought he knew the guy he had to turn around and do something like this too him. At least when Lance tried to be violent it was somewhat entertaining. When Lance was sulky it was just dull and boring. Could it be that Damion had not pushed Lance far enough? Of course, what other explanation was there? He would just have to try again tomarrow. He followed the general flow of people into the living room area with a bit of a let down. DDR was not realy Damion's type of game, not that there realy were that many games he cared for but DDr was still not one of the few. However, practically everyone in the household was preoccupied with the game leaving Damion time to think, which if you knew anything about Damion, generally meant trouble for everyone else. He leaned against the wall with a fake yawn.

Rogue was in the hall that led towards the kitchen and the dining room, so she hadn't heard Pip enter behind her. She'd already looked in the living room and the library, but she hadn't seen a soul. She was really getting worried now, because the Proffesor should have said hello, or at least sent someone to meet her.

"Hello? Anybody here?" she called out for the fifth time. "Raze? Logan? Jean? Anybody?" She glanced into the dining room and saw that it too was empty. 'At least everything looks used. So I know they can't all be gone,' she thought to herself. She was beginng to get frusterated. "C'mon y'all! This ain't funny anymore," she yelled.

"Hi i missed you" Dairus said happy to see she was ok "that was a nasty fight" he had a bruise or too and one or two decent cut bet he was fine. Kidd seemed like she was trying to hide her room, but he assumed she was trying to keep some thing a surprise.

He heard rouge getting all mad down the hallway “I’m over here everyone else i assume is getting rested up or cleaned up”

(he hasn’t been there long enough for them to know each other)
((sorry if it sucks i g2g to work paperwork stare stare gonk ))

Toad made his way back to the living room to make an attempt to play his newly found game. However to his surprise there were already two other brotherhood members standing on HIS dance pads playing HIS game. how dare them. In one single bound, Toad leapt into the air, flipped, and landed infront of the girls, blocking their view of HIS tv. "Hey! What's the big idea?" he asked, standing his full height of 5 foot 6 inches. "I didn't lug all this stuff back here for you two to use it first. Second sure, but not first. The Toad gets first go." He slicked his hair back, trying and failing to look cool again. "So get off, or I'll make ya, yo."

Kidd jumped out her door, tugging the door closed behind her and rapped one arm around Darius's neck. She was so happy he was ok. She was so scared the whole time afer he was taken away in that metal ball. "Darius, I'm sorry I couldn't come and help you."she let go of him and look awkwardly at her feet. "I...well,"she shrugged and looked up smiling. "Suppose it don't matter, eh? Your ok, I'm ok. That's all god." she tilted her head and winked at him. "Right?". suddenly Kidd heard a girl, or woman, yelling down the hall looking for some one. Kidd looked to Darius who was eyeing her door. " Maybe we should go see what she wants? Maybe?" Kidd said pushing by Darius trying to take his attention away from the room.

A terrifying dose of reality interrupted Damion's grand plans for the future like a sledgehamer through the glass windows of a cathedral. Toad was going to be dancing. Toad... was going... to be dancing. Damion looked up trying to hide his morbid fear of the immediate future. He took a deep breath and sighed shaking his head and hiding his face with his hand. "No good can come of this." he murmured as he made an attempt to blind his vision before armageddon presented itself.
