"I was a Criminal Psychology major in college. I guess I've wanted to work for the FBI or something like that for awhile. This opportunity just let me get in faster," she rolled her eyes as she thought about what she just said. "Geez, that makes it sound like I cheated to get in or something. I mean I didn't even know what my powers were before I came here and was never even tempted to find out. Now I'm not even sure how my power would ever be useful. I kinda wonder why the FBI would even want me here." She looked around realizing how serious she had gotten. She smiled and added, "but hey, who cares right? I'm here now so I'm going to make the most of it." Then she took another big bite of her ice cream.

Jason could tell that Hope had gotten out her comfort zone with the conversation so he'd thought he'd turn it around. "sooo. Criminal Psychology. Is that like going into the minds of crimals and like finding out their motives or something? Could you get into my mind" He said joking around, yet somewhat serious.

He quickly bent one end of the paperclip into a 90 degree angle and pulled out his pocket knife flipping it to the flathead screwdriver. He put his tools into the keyhole and started messing with the internal pins. It was a lot harder than it looked on YouTube. He was concentrating on the lock so much that he forgot to watch out for anyone coming along the hall.

((You can have Riabhca run into him again if you want.))

Riabhca meandered slowly down the hallways, turning at random and hoping she wouldn't get lost. After one such turn she saw someone ahead of her bent over in front of a door. From behind she didn't recognize him at first but, after switching briefly into heat vision, recognized his heat siginature. Curious she came up behind him, moving with her usual grace. Coming to a stop behind him, "Hello Drew."

Hope met Jason's gaze but then quickly looked down at her ice cream. She wasn't sure how comfortable she was talking to him like this. It was different interrogating criminals as they are being charged or reviewing details of a case, though she had even only done those things in a classroom setting. But talking to someone like this was different, she wasn't sure why he would ask something like that.

Hope shrugged and shook her head, "it's not like that, I mean it's not like a power or something where I can read someone's mind. But, yeah, I guess basically I try to figure out why someone committed a crime, what their motives were and what they might have been thinking. But only when it relates to a crime really, not like what they are thinking all the time."

Drew jumped at the sound of his name. He turned his head and saw Riabhca standing behind him. Great, just when he had met someone who might be a friend, he's caught doing something like this. He stood more upright as he turned around with his hands behind him over the lock.

"Oh hey," he let out a short chuckle. "I bet this looks kinda strange, huh? See, I just uh, well I mean this is my room and I lost my key, I mean it's probably locked inside somewhere I just forgot to grab it on my way out. And my roommate is out somewhere so I was just trying to get back into my room, though I'm not having much luck." He finally managed to get himself to stop rambling. He let out a sigh as he mentally kicked himself for making up such a lame story.

"I seee." Jason could see that Hope wasn't to comfortable with this conversation either. Most people were just plain uncomfortable around him anyway. "So how long were you in colle-" Jason stopped something outside the window had caught his eye. A familiar figure. A big man with dark skin and tattos of spiders all over is face and arms. Then he could see that he was with all the other member of his old gang. "holy crap!!" Jason shouted as he sunk from into his seat to under the table. If he was seen with FBI agents he'd be dead. Hopefully they hadn't seen him already, but it seemed that they ididn't. "See those guys out their hanging around the old pickup truck. I used to be in theri gang. I'm surprised to see them on this side of town, but they might be the ones who were threatning you. Do they look familiar?" He wispered to Hope from under the table.

happyfreak14 · Oct 16, 2007

caitlyn jumped, surprised, as Flame noticed something outside and suddenly slid under the table, hissing something she couldn't quite catch at Hope. she turned to the window the see a crowd of less than friendly looking people just outside the window. one guy looked like he had spiders crawling all over them. trying to look like she was talking to someone other than Flame, since he apparently didn't want to be noticed, she asked aprehensively "who the heck are they? and if you're scared should we be running?"

TrueImpossibility · Oct 16, 2007

Hope gasped and her heart started racing as Jason shouted and sunk under the table. She didn't think anything scared him, certainly not enough to react like that. Something must be bad.

Before she could ask what was going on, Jason was already explaining himself. Hope looked outside but kept her head turned and looked out of the corner of her eyes just in case they could see in and were watching them. "Uh ... I don't know, maybe," she studied the men but it was hard to tell at this distance through the window. "This is the gang you used to be a part of? I didn't think ... wait, yeah." She was looking at one guy who was hanging around a bit behind the rest of the gang. "One at least I recognize, the last one who talked to me and told me to stay in the campus. I'm not sure about the rest, maybe."

As Caitlyn spoke up, Hope realized that most others at the table couldn't hear Jason. "I don't think running would be a good idea. At least here there's people around. Do you think they would do anything with so many witnesses around?"

Riabhca raised one eyebrow slightly as she listened to Drew fumbling with his story. She really didn't care what he was doing as it wasn't any of her business. He could be breaking into the vault for all that it mattered to her. It was however, obvious that what she thought mattered to him.

So smiling slightly in amusement and holding up her hands, "Hey, no worries Drew. It doesn't really matter what you're doing. I was just wandering past and thought it would be rude to continue without saying hi."

Flashing a quick grin, "Now I don't want to keep you from getting into your 'room' so I'll be on my way. Feel free to drop by my room whenever and I hope we can be friends."

TrueImpossibility · Oct 16, 2007

((I have an idea. Check out the OOC thread and let me know what you all think.))

TrueImpossibility · Oct 16, 2007

"Yeah, sure. I hope we can be friends too," Drew replied. She seemed pretty cool considering the fact that it was obvious he was up to something and she didn't push it.

But her interrupting him, and moreso his reaction to it, made him snap back to reality and realize what he was doing. For one thing, he had no idea how to actually pick a lock and secondly, it was wrong. Even if he could find what he was after and prove that Flame was doing something wrong, it didn't justify what he was doing. He would have to explain how he found the anklet and he could get kicked out for it.

"Hey, you know forget it," he called out to Riabhca before she walked off too far. "I'll just wait until my roommate gets back to get into the room. Maybe I can hang with you a bit, you know just to pass the time until he gets back. Have you checked out the basketball court? We have a pretty sweet little sports complex here."

Riabhca hadn't gone far when she heard Drew calling her. Hiding an amused smile she stopped and turned around. Thrilled that he wanted to hang out she grinned, revealing her unique set of teeth. "No I haven't. Only just got here, so all I've seen is the front office and this building."

rockerchic · Oct 20, 2007

"I'm not scared. " Jason replied defensively. Those are just som old pals." he lied, "and i dont really want them to see me with you." He was trying to think of what to do next when hope told him that she had seen them before. "Well this is just great. " he said sarcastically. "I thought maybe you were dealing with amatures, but you've got yourself some really trouble. " He hit his head on the back of the tbles leg. "We never should have left the academy. I told you but you wouldn't listen. Now what?" Jason put his hands in his head. "Listen, I'm gonna bail. I just cant be hanging around with you guys when their around." He started to crawl out from under the table, being very careful to stayout of view of the window. Then he started to sneak out of the back door.

happyfreak14 · Oct 20, 2007

"hurray." Caitlyn hissed sarcastically "'real trouble.' just what we need right now." she glared at him as he started crawling out from under the table. "you could stick around and help. since you're 'old pals' it shouldn't be a problem, should it?" she couldn't help sounding somewhat rude on that last bit; she was starting to get scared, and having the one person who knew what they were doing bail out wasn't helping.

rockerchic · Oct 21, 2007

JAson looked back at Cat, he hated to leave her here, but he had no choice. "You have no idea what you're talking about. Theirs really no such things as pals, in these kinds of gangs. You join these agngs and theirs no leaving. If you do one thing wrong, they'll kill you with absolutely no hesitation. You all should be fine, after all you said with all these witnesses they shouldn't be able to bother you." With that he opened the door and snuck out back, leaving his icecream and newly found friends alone at the table. He just couldn't stay, their was no way. BVut everything inside him told him to go back ans stay with them.

No one said anything as Flame left the ice cream parlor, so Kyler took it upon himself to break the silence. "now what?"

((I have an idea. If its ok with you true, i thought it would be fun to get some action going with everyone and the gang, and then for Jason to come back and help them. It would get us some action time a chance to use some gang characters. But its just a sugestion. ))

happyfreak14 · Oct 22, 2007

Caitlyn scowled as she watched Flame scurry out. "in my universe 'old pals' do not kill each other." she muttered. recently she'd been coming to the conclusions that not everyone had nearly as tidy a universe as she did. it wasn't a very comfortable thought. They sat in silence for a few moments before Kyler spoke up. "now what?" she glanced at the door Flame had been heading for, but he was gone now. "hope they don't notice us I guess." Flame seemed to think they wouldn't. then again, Flame had obviously considered himself to be in bigger trouble than them. it was entirely probable he didn't actually know what would happen.
"look normal?" she tried to make it a joke but she didn't think it had come out as one. she glanced at the door again.
calm Caitlyn. he's probably right. odds are good they'll just leave you alone.

sure.

TrueImpossibility · Oct 25, 2007

((Sorry guys, busy past week or so. Good idea rockerchic, I was hoping for more players to take on some gang characters, but it doesn't seem that there's any new interest. Oh well, we can play the gang. ))

Drew started to smile, but it quickly dropped from his face. It felt good to start to make a friend again, but it also made him feel guilty. Why should he continue on and enjoy life when those he loved the most couldn't? But he had to, he couldn't just give up on life, they wouldn't have wanted that.

"Alright then, let's get out of here. This building has to be the least interesting thing on this campus. Come on, I'll show you around a bit." With that, Drew motioned with his head and started in a direction that would lead them out of the building and toward the sports complex.

--------------------------------------------------

Hope sat where she was speechless. She wanted to reach out and grab ahold of Jason when he made his escape, but she knew she wouldn't have been able to force him to stay there. How could he be so cowardly and just abandon the rest of them like that? Then again, he was an ex-criminal, that alone said a lot about his cowardness, at least in her mind. Suddenly, she had no more appetite for her ice cream. Glancing out the window, she kept her eye on the gang. They appeared to not know they were in the ice cream shop, or it could all be an act. What if Jason was really still on their side and he was going out to rat them out?

Voices seemed to ring in the back of her head. It was Kyler and Caitlyn. Hope pulled herself back into reality. "He's right, there's too many witnesses here for them to do anything. We just stay here and act normal, not that we aren't normal. I mean, just act like there's nothing going on. Nothing to worry about. We'll wait until they leave." But even as she spoke, she wondered if that was a good idea. At least right now they knew where the gang was, if they wanted to leave until the gang was gone, there was no telling where the gang would be or if they would run into them on the walk back.

Craig fingered the scar on the side of his neck. His thoughts were transported back to that first night with the gang. They cut him several times to watch his skin grow back and then they stabbed him in the neck. He wasn't sure if he would recover from that one, but he did. He already knew that he had limitations, when he was 11 he cut off half of his pinky finger figuring that it would just grow back. It never did. He was used to boys picking on him. Some kids from school were acting like they were going to drown him, but somehow he started being able to breathe while he was underwater. That's when he knew his powers were more than just healing from injuries.

But the guys in this gang were different. They weren't trying to hurt him, they were just testing him. They nicknamed him Komodo, because of his last name but also because he could sorta regenerate like a lizard. He tried to explain that he couldn't really regenerate like that, but the name stayed.

He wondered if they would kick him out of the gang now. He swore that he really did see that girl from the academy come this way with a group of other people, but now he doubted himself. It could have been someone else, even if it was her they could be in any of these shops or have kept going somewhere else.

He felt a hand on his shoulder. "Don't look so nervous," it was one of the other gang members. "They'll show themselves eventually and if not there's always tomorrow." The other guy laughed and turned back to the rest of the gang.

Craig sighed in relief. At least he wasn't getting kicked out, but it would be better if they found the group of students. Then he would feel like he finally did something right.

Mark scanned the shops in front of him. convenience store, thrift store, jewelery store, ice cream place, chocolate shop, video store...
I where would I go if I was mutant at some freaking FBI academy out for a bit of fun with friends? he looked behind him at the rest of the gang most of whom were also looking speculatively at the shops before them. Craig looked a little nervous. he was the one who said he'd seen the chick and a crowd of people heading this way, and he was now probably worrying they'd be upset because they'd come down here and not found them. he worries to much. thought Mark. we don't abandon our own. heck, our problem with this girl is that she abandoned us. well, not them specifically, but her fellow mutants in general. working for the freaking FBI. I wouldn't have though anyone would go for it. well apparently there was a pack of them up there at that academy, and fat lot of good their stupid academy was going to do them when the gang finally caught them.

Riabhca turned and quickly followed Drew. As usual she paid close attention to their route so she could hopefully retrace it later should she need to. Feeling the silence pressing in on her, "Sooo, how long have you been here? Are there many like us here?"

************************

Constantine was as usual behind and off to one side of the rest of the gang members, leaning casually against a building. Scanning the area he occastionally pulled in strands of light from around corners and other spots he couldn't directly see, and in that way was able to literally see around corners.

For once, since they apparently were trying not to be noticed, he had retracted his wings. This state wasn't totally comfortable for him and he felt rather naked without them. Shoving his discomfort to the back of his mind he focused again on what was happening around him. Komodo seemed to be fretting, not that unusual as he didn't seem to have much confidence. Constantine, on the other hand, had plenty of that; gained mostly from hard experience and his many years in the gangs.

A movement off to one side suddenly caught his attention, and focusing on it he pulled some light from that direction. Sure enough, someone was watching them. He couldn't get a clear image, viewing through glass as he was, but someone in that store over there was definately looked in their direction. And rather nervously at that. Constantine debated letting the rest know he might have spotted their quary but then decided against it, letting them stew for awhile. Besides, he wasn't positive it was who they were looking for.

((yeeps sorry for the delay. been sick all weekend so got nothing done, not even schoolwork. Hope the part with Constantine is alright, I'll edit if needed.))

"Nearly a week," Drew said in responce to Riabhca's first question. "I haven't found anyone here like me. But there's plenty of freaks if that's what you mean." He stopped and glanced over at Riabhca, "I'm sorry, I didn't mean it like ... well, it's just ... it's complicated." He turned back around and started walking in the direction he had been going.
