ProphecyDestroyer Calamity stared in awe as the events unfolded. This was amazing beyond compare. Calamity looked at the others and nodded, determined he could do this. He focused on the building. Warp didn't need to show him where the supports were breaking. Calamity could feel the magnetic fields shifting. Calamity held out one arm and began to reconstruct the supports, bending them back into place. As he finished one, he nodded to Shadow Walker. "The one nearest us is done. Let's go to the next one!"  Catherine Smithe
my name is Shadow Walker "Great now let's check the others..." she took his hand and they fell into shadow. They emerged in the middle of all the points that needed to be addressed. "Can you sense the weak points? Can you reach them all from here? I can get you closer if you needed." She seemed remarkably calm despite being in a weakened structure.

She looked to Dmitri for a moment. Her ears lowered a little seeing Dmitri down. She thought nothing could bring him down because of how optimistic he is. She thought Cassie was terrible for treating him the way she does.
She felt bad and a little confused about interrupting their camping trip yet it sounded she didn't enjoy the company. She frowned as she continued to threaten to kill Dmitri. Felicia wanted to say something nice on Dmitri's behalf but.. it seemed to not to work for the purple haired girl, on top of that Dmitri would be mad at her for trying. She simply bit her lip as Dmitri continued. He started sounding a bit more positive. But frowned again as Cassie continued to want him to go.
"Can't we all just... get along?" she simply asked not knowing what else to add. She felt that she was in the middle of a complex situation.

As they stepped into the hallway and closed the door, Sebastian paid attention to the minor details. Which was excruciatingly easy because of his eyes. The details stood out clear, the subtle arm movements of the two of them, the difference in light brightness, etcetera. "I would first like to apologize for going behind your back and disobeying your orders about retrieving Cassandra. We arrived in Genosha and retrieved her. Warp gave chase. Dean fought the Brotherhood members to help us escape. He was captured." Sebastian closed his eyes and turned his head away from Emma. "That's all that came out of this 'mission.' As for what to do about Dmitri, that's up to you and Scott. We can remove Cassandra's influence easily enough and send him back to Genosha. Or we can keep him here."Inventory:

Emma Frost  Emma frowned at Sebastian's explanation but did not seem surprised. "Dean with the Brotherhood is more problematic in some ways but he is more than capable to handle himself," She sighed, "though, I would love to get into your mind, Sebastian, and dissect exactly why you would disobey a direct order from me regarding Cassandra."She smiled and said, "And the problem with Mr. Kovac, as I am sure you realize, is that he is too dangerous to just hand over to Magneto and the Brotherhood. It is far better to have him on our side and he seems to be capable of handling Cassandra. Maybe the solitary confinement, which was an apartment where he got stuck with visits from Warp and a teleporter by the name of Blink-pink hair, half Asian-she was at the MRD rally in New York City... anyways, it changed him.""Of course, Cassie won't see it, she only sees the worse in what she refers to as her victims," Emma continued, "but even if we did remove Cassie's influence from him, we would have to keep him here. Disabling and enhancing a mutants powers, especially at the level he can, is not something to be trifled with. And, I don't think Cassie needs to realize that her power is reversible. It might be good for her to actually face the consequences of her actions occasionally."She paused at the door to open it and turned and said, "Mr. Kovac hates you, by the way. And Cassie's influence isn't nearly as easy to erase as you might think. You might be able to do it but even a telepath of my level can't erase the roots of her power. It's interesting." She paused her hand on the door knob, curious if Sebastian would answer her or not.

Dmitri Kovac
a.k.a. Amp 
Dmitri knew he liked Felicia as a person for a reason. "Yeah, us all getting along sounds great," Dmitri said with a forced smile as he looked over at Cassie who was still staring daggers at him.
"You know, having only your brother and the only girl who... um and this teleporter that's a friend of his that he's been friends with for years, gave me a lot of time to think," Dmitri said glancing first at the unhappy Cassie, then the anxious Felicia, and then the stoic Scott Summers who he was pretty sure would stop a fight from breaking out.
"Oh really?" Cassie demanded, "be-""Anyways," Dmitri said cutting her off his gray eyes narrowing and he said, "I changed my objective. You know part of my power is figuring out other people's power... you weren't around so I couldn't do that but over time I got to thinking I was being selfish and trying to make you into what I wanted for you: shouldn't I be supporting what you want instead of trying to mold you? Anyways, that's why I wanted to join the X-men. Obviously it is important to you so I want to support you and-" Cassie opened her mouth to interrupt but Dmitri cut her off, "Anyways, like I said, part of my power is being able to figure out other people's power. I know how your power works. It's like Warp guessed, the reason your full power doesn't work on him: people fall in love with you in the way they would have fallen in love with you if they had met you in the best of circumstances."
"But the thing about your power is even if the person can't stop loving you their love for you can change," Dmitri continued. "And the opposite of love isn't hate like people think... it's indifference. I have a lot of reasons to hate you, Cassandra Diaz... Hell, I should already, but I'm a better person than that but people can change too."Cassie raised a brow, her arms crossed and she said, "Are you threatening me?""No, I'm warning you because I love you and yeah I do feel that genuinely even if it is just your power," He snapped. "So? Going to slap me again? Will that make you feel better? Should I give you your power back so you can force me out of your little bubble? Look, Cassandra, I'm tired, and I have honest reasons for joining the X-men. I'll leave you alone if you want but if I am an X-men and living here we will run into each other so act like a civilized person and not some spoiled little princess."Cassie sighed, though she kept her arms crossed, she glanced away and looked to Felicia, "I just wish someone would just give me the full story of what happened while I was away... I hate waiting."Location: In Sebastian Arkain's Lab

"Where do I start..." she took a deep breath. "Well... I was knocked out by whatever they injected me with for a moment then... Kerana woke up...my uh... wild form. She didn't know what was going on all she was doing was protecting me by attacking other people ... and they got hurt... I-I try to take control but she wouldn't listen. The stuff caught up to her and I was down again.
I woke up back at the lab, Myth and Sebastian must have brought me here. But... I had to be strapped down I kept shifting back and forth...arguing, fighting for control. With Emma's help she started to listen to reason. I had to take a nap. Emma told me that you were on a vacation to Africa with your brother. I-uh didn't know that he was the leader of the Brotherhood at the time so I didn't think much of it. Then Dmitri filled me in, we kept wondering why weren't we rescuing you? Why simply leave you there?
Since Myth or Sebastian weren't going to do anything about it we took matters in our own hands. We tried to take off in the Blackbird but we got caught. Then Sebastian needed to go to Madagascar to find a lemur. Pretty much it turned out we didn't need the lemur and we went in to rescue you... But in the process Myth got caught... And that's pretty much it?" She looked to Dmitri to see if there was anything else she missed.

Cassandra Song Diaz
but you can call me Love or Heartbreaker  "About sums it up," Dmitri said leaning on the table looking at his feet,Cassie took the few moments to process everything Felicia said. She stared at Felicia and then glared at Dmitri and snapped, "Why'd you let her believe that my brother is this bad guy or something? I mean, okay, so yeah he's the leader of the Brotherhood, but didn't he save your sorry-""He's killed people," Dmitri said. "Oh, and he's slept with almost 50% of the female population within 18 and 30 in Genosha.""So he's a man-slut and he's offed a few MRD, he's still my brother and wouldn't have done anything to hurt me. He took me camping," Cassie said with narrowed eyes and crossed arms. She sighed, rolled her eyes and glanced over at Felicia and processed the rest of the statement "Why would Sebastian lie about a le-wait... Myth was caught?" She let out a string of curses in Spanish and then said, "So you rescue me, who my brother would never have done anything to hurt to lose Myth who my brother the would have no qualms about torturing or using psychics to break into his mind or use a mutant collar or him or..."
Dmitri stared at Cassie as she was going on and raised a brow and muttered in Latin something about Warp being up for sainthood a second ago.Location: Sebastian's Lab

Sebastian nodded. "The Lazarus drug causes an instant and constant scrambling of the brain. It removes all mental influence from a separate person. I suppose, if Dmitri's feelings for Cassandra run deeper than her power, yes he would still love her. Just not because of her power." He shook his as it began to throb. "There's something else I think I have to tell you. I think the Lazarus Drug may have a horrible side effect due to long exposure."Calamity nodded as he stretched his arms out in opposite directions. He felt the metal twist and bend and snap as he forced the magnetic poles into alignment. In a matter of moments, the building was stable. He looked up at Shadow Walker. "Done!" He grinned. Strangely enough, it was one of the first times he had a genuine smile on his face since he left the orphanage.Inventory:

Dean Nixon
a.k.a. Myth
After the young lady left he found himself agreeing with her. Young as she may be, she was interesting. Coexistence would never happen. On a small scale it could. But not global. There would always be jealousy and fear from those without power and arrogance and greed from those with power. During history there have always been individuals with extraordinary power. They became kings, conquerors or great scholars. Those unfortunate enough were hunted down. Witch hunts were how some of them died. But back in the day, mutants were not that common as they are now. The world was slowly drifting towards to a crossroad or perhaps it was already there. Maybe....maybe it would be best humankind were to be wiped out. A more peaceful solution would be preferable. A world for mutants.
"With help, I might be able to create that world without sacrificing this world. Creating an actual world for mutants. Heh.....living this long made me arrogant enough to do." The man said as he softly laughed at his own foolishness.
The black Dragon came down again without being called. It seemed to know he wanted to go. She lowered her head in front of him. He gently rubbed her nose. "It's time to go girl. I cannot fly you all the way home. In this era the whole world will know about you within minutes if someone saw you. But luck favors us at the moment. There is a lot of ocean to cross. So can be free for a short period of time." He always spoke soft and gentle to her. Despite her being a dragon. A figment of his imagination she might be but right now, she was alive and any living animal should be treated kindly.
The dragon raised her head and turned herself. Lowering herself so that he could get on. The man created a throne on top of her back at the bottom of her neck so that the bindings would not get in the way of her wings. After had positioned himself he spoke to her once more. " Fly, my dear. Let the world know for this small moment in time that a dragon still calls this world her home."
The dragon let out a roar. Nothing like the previous aggressive roars but a territorial one. Nevertheless, it was quite loud and amazing. She started running and leaped towards the sky, her long tail swirling after her.Location: Skies of Madagascar

Emma Frost Emma gave Sebastian an unattached smile and answered, " Sebastian, you are smart enough that I am sure you understood that everything has side effects after long exposure. You even call it a drug... drugs have side effects."Her pale blue eyes regarded Sebastian and she added, "And regarding Cassandra's power. Cassie's power in many ways is telepathic. Her secondary power-her commands-those are simple to block. A lower level telepath if he fought hard enough might be able to overcome one of her absolute commands. Those commands work in many ways like my power does; however, she needs some eye contact to do it meaning her power isn't 'perfected'. Emotions run deeper in the mind. It would be much harder to change someone's emotions. It's a different part of the brain and far more complex.""It is possible I, one of the stronger telepaths in the world, could reverse Cassie's power but I doubt it," Emma said. "Cassie's primary power, the power to make people love her, if she ever perfected it could possibly be at an Omega level. Her power is a mental influence, but isn't all emotions?"She let out an uncharacteristic sigh and continued, "Truth be told even I don't fully understand her power, but we do have a mutant here, now, who part of his power is to understand other mutant's power. Cassandra Diaz's power is complicated and of course a sixteen year old boy isn't the ideal candidate to make evaluations of her power... the real question is how deep does Cassie's primary power actually go? I went to Austin once to clean up the mess she left to wipe minds of her presence, but these people, they speak as if they are remembering a daughter that was so real but my power is telling them she never existed.""Cassandra Song Diaz is, power wise, more dangerous than her brother Warp," Emma said. "Think about that."

 My name is Blink
though once upon a time I was called Aimee Perry {Location: Genosha} { Wearing}
She was barefoot from kicking off her heels at the apartment and soaked in cold water and shivering, yet beads of sweat were on her forehead. She looked to Warp and said, "I think he's an Omega..."Warp rushed to her and dried her using her power though she still shivered, "Blink! What happened?""I did the only thing I..." Her teeth were chattering, "could think of... I dropped him at the sight of the Titanic... I saw... I saw a picture in a textbook when I was a kid and..."He rubbed her shoulders and made the air around them even warmer and said, "It's fine. You did good. I didn't expect him to be Omega..." He glanced around and a crowd was forming. He glanced to Shadow Walker, "Shadow Walker can we all get somewhere a little more private to discuss business."

"I-I was worried about you Cassie. It bothered me so much that no one aside from Dmitri wanted to save you. It bothered me that Emma and Myth lied to me about your where abouts. It bothered me that I let it all happened. I tried to keep the teleporter away from you but we still got caught." she looked down and rubbed her arm. "I thought I was doing the right thing."

Alexander William Diaz
a.k.a. Warp 
Warp wrapped the towel around Blink and mouthed a thanks to Shadow Walker even though Blink was already dry. At least it might help the shivering. Blink had pushed her powers to the extreme-if not overtaxed them and she was a mess right now. He pulled her towards him and rubbed her back to help warm her up some. The air around Warp was hotter than usual from his power as he served as a heater of sorts.
"I had asked Blink to follow Myth and the dragon and deal with the problem the best she could but to..." Warp trailed off. "Teleporting someone and something that big and that far isn't an easy feat."
Blink was still shaking and muttered, "I couldn't even fight him... I mean... all I can do is defensive moves and I-""Shh..." He said. "That teleport will at least slow him down. You did more than enough..." She was about to say something else when Warp said, "Oh and if you talk again I will seal your mouth shut."
He sighed and said, "Anyways, Calamity and the others were able to stabilize the building while you were gone and no one was hurt. There were a few scrapes and a broken arm from debris but I healed them. Everything is okay, alright Blink?" She nodded still shaking some from all the energy she had used up.Location: Warp's apartment
