Not Sneaking... Exploration; [INACTIVE - CLOSED]

Arjun caught Lou's small smile at his remark, and instantly blushed. He should have known it was another student, using his or her powers to fool around. How silly to think it was a "bad guy". Inwardly he smacked himself, but outwardly he put on a smile and laughed alittle.

When the headmistress approached, he got quiet. She was such an imposing figure, even though she seemed to be less than made up at the moment. So clearly they were about to have a real simulation in the Danger Room, and nothing could have been more exciting. Finally he would be able to show off his powers, use them in a real situation.

"I'd really like to get in there." he stated to the group as a whole.

Alex smiled softly at the woman, she had a strange accent, or at least a strange way she spoke. She reminded him of Remy, but without the southern accent and the french thrown in. He also sensed the hostility in her tone, and though he didn't blame her for being offended he worked to keep the frustration for his voice " Yeah, sorry if you were started by me, I'm Alex" he whispered to the woman, trying not the attract the wraith of the director.

Alex was only slightly startled when he felt Alix in his mind, and strangely calm, like when ever his mind was touched by a telepath. :: Hey Alix, glad to see you again:: Alex thought as he did his best to try to project it to Alix, not sure how to really respond to a telepath.

" How real is the stuff in their, like simulated enemies" Alex asked, if there was a chance of physical harm Alex wasn't sure he wanted in. Even with his powers he didn't want to take any chances. Whenever he broke a bone he couldn't use his powers till it healed, something Alex didn't want to look forward too. After all, why be in a school for the gifted if you can't use your gift?

Mina glanced briefly at the assembled group. It would be interesting to see how they all worked with each other in a combat situation, which ones would emerge as leaders and which ones would simply follow. Not only that, but it would give them a chance to test and explore their powers and abilities further.

Lou's question brought a small smile to her lips and she moved through the assembled group to the Danger Room door, pressing her hand to the pad located to the right of it. There was a series of quiet beeps followed by a woman's voice. "Welcome, Professor Harker." With a quiet hiss the doors slid open and Mina motioned them inside.

The door from the hallway led into a sort of holding room. There were three other doors along with the one they had just entered from and she pointed to the one to the right as she stepped into the center of the room. "The locker rooms are through there," she explained. "Inside you'll find training uniforms and stalls that you can change in. Through here is the control room, and through there is the actual Danger Room," she finished, pointing first to the door directly across from the one that led out into the hall and then to the one on the left.

"The Danger Room allows us to hone our skills in a safe enviornment through the use of various simulated combat and reconnaissance situations. It is the safest place to explore your powers and ablilites," she said, then smiled slightly. "So let's go get changed."

She led them into the locker room, which split into two different wings, one for girls and one for boys. "I'll meet you in the Danger Room in 10 minutes," she said, and then left them to it. Her uniform was in the locker room closer to the War Room, along with the rest of the X-men's uniforms.

She changed quickly enough and headed into the control room to select a simulation. She didn't want to overload them on their first try so she chose one that was fairly simple and straightforward, but it would still challenge them.

With the simulation loaded she made her way into the Danger Room, standing in the center and taking a moment to re-do her ponytail while she waited for the others.

((Alex, watch your posting order, you're starting to step on people's toes =P))

She gave a pleasant smile to Alex, and nodded. ::glad to see you too:: she agreed, listening to Mina before nodding in quiet understanding. While her first danger room simulation hadn't been in training uniforms, Alix could only guess that it had something to do with the fact that she had simply. wandered into Wolverine's simulation. Remingin herself this, pleasantly, hse moved for the locker room, quickly chaning into the training uniform before slipping her coat back on over it, and her usual gloves. Two things that.. she never went without.

When she exited, she entered the danger room and quietly waited.. pleasantly looking about. Half wondering what the simulation would be.

Lou kept and neutral face a quietly whispered to Alex, "I don't like people followin' me. You've just lucky the power I be usin' most isn't offensive." Again not a threat but if she had sensed the red haze of the boy before they arrived at the DR ooh he would of gotten the cold shoulder, quite literally.

She followed close behind Mina and briefly looked at the facilities. Her still neutral face hid the surprise rather good. This place was more, well, advanced then she thought. ~Magine if they be havin' this at my old school,~ she thought memorized with the control room.

One look at the training uniforms made the black haired woman scowl. "It be like gym," she stated in a distracted tone. Oh, how she wouldn't wear them. Who cared if her clothes got ruined? In slight anger her foot began to tap against the tiled floor. Suddenly she sat down and took of the black cowboy boots that seemed to always adorn her feet. Changing only into the training pants and shoes she walked into the Danger Room wearing a black spaghetti strap tank. Certainly they would allow her to make her own uniform.

A simple look around the room Lou smiled softly. "So this simulation, what can we expect?" she said just as softly.

Alex smiled at Alix and listened intently to the headmistresses instructions. Alex was just beginning to imagine the training uniforms when Lou whispered to him. Alex did his best to contain a combination of a smirk, a scoff, and a scowl. He didn't appreciate being threatened, especially so matter-o-factly. He sure didn't like people telling him he was lucky he wasn't beat to tar.

He was considering think of a counter-response when the girl walked off. Alex considered how to best use his powers offensively as he walked to the changing room. He found a training uniform that fit him, it looked kind of like a jumpsuit. He hoped everyone had a ridiculous uniform like himself. Especially Lou.

Alex walked into the danger room, which was a little underwelming. He expected giant robots and spike laser missiles instead of a plain white room. Even so Alex seamlessly changed to his half-form, legs replaced by billowing smoke and hair becoming very thick smoke blowing back in the (nonexistent) wind.

Arjun listend to all of Mina's words, taking them all in like an eager school student, which in fact he was. He wanted to learn, and maybe one day toy with the possibility of becoming and X Man. And as far as he was concerned, this was his first step in that direction; Proving his worth to the Headmistress and his peers.

He followed Alex into the boys changing room, and he too took one of the plain training uniforms. His fit him in all the right places, but also made him seem spaceman-like. The one feature Arjun did enjoy was the sharp v neckline on his. It exposed some of his very tan brown skin.

Making his way out into the Danger Room, he waited awkwardly beside Alex. He had never met this smokey-windy boy before. But he guessed now was not the time for polite introductions. He smiled as the group slowly amassed in the white walled room. He quikly wiped sweat from his brow, turning so that no one would see. He didn't want them to know of his nervuousness.

Mina waited patiently as the students changed and then assembled in the Danger Room. She had chosen a fairly simple simulation, since for most of them it was their first time in the Danger Room, but nothing so simple that they wouldn't be challenged.

Crossing her arms over her stomach, she stood in the middle of the Danger Room and addressed them all. "The Danger Room is the only place in the school where you are allowed full use of your powers, for safety reasons, of course," she added with a small smile. "Computer, begin simulation," she said suddenly.

The interior of the Danger Room vanished and they were left standing in a brightly lit, white-washed hallway. "This is strictly a reconnaissance mission," she stated firmly, looking to each of the students for a few seconds to make sure they got the message. "Hidden somewhere in this base is a computer disk containing some very important information that cannot be left to fall into enemy hands."

She paused for a moment to let them absorb that bit of information before continuing. "It is your job to find it's location and retrive it in the time allotted. You will encounter various armed combatants here in the base. Your instructions are to incapacitate them only, not to kill them. I will repeat that: do not kill anyone you come across."

Mina stepped to the side of the hallway to allow the students go ahead of her. "Use all of your skills to accomplish this goal, don't just rely on your powers. You have 30 minutes."

Reconnaissance Alex tried not to puff out when he heard the word. But his powers were well suited for recon, very well suited in fact. Alex was worried that the simulation would be a straight up shoot out, where he would look like a craven floating around while his comrades where in the thick of things. But with reconnaissance, he could prove himself.

Alex was a little disoriented when the scenery changed, but recovered fast enough. Maybe because the change was between a white room and a white hallway. He decided to take the initiative and take the first steps, or really float a few feet ahead past the head mistress. Alex then turned and looked over the group behind him, a plan half formed in his mind.

"Well it seems we need a plan, so i guess we should know more about each others powers before we begin, and talents as the headmistress said. I'll start. I can turn completely into a gas and control gases as well. I think I can do a lot of the stealth, but when it comes to combat a gust of wind isn't that dangerous." Alex allowed himself a slight smile and then began to think about his talents. "I can also speak five languages and with my powers i can do acrobatics easily." Alex bit his tongue at his last remark, not wanting to sound to haughty so he added " but i don't think that will really help in this situation." But in this school, he bet there where people who had a hell of a lot more impressive abilities then him, and Alex hoped one of them was in his group.

~Reconnaissance, huh,~ Lou thought for a moment. She had begun to wonder whether her powers would work in a situation such as this. Of course if it was a really mission with real people they had to get past her powers would be the perfect distraction. But did the simulated people or the robotic people, if they had them, react to the cold.

Her dark gray eyes widened as the room blurred into a white hallway. Suddenly a thought popped into her head. Were her teammates afraid of enclosed spaces? She looked at each one of the closely as though their expression would answer her question. White hallways had a nasty way of making you feel as though they were closing in on you. Even if it were a slight fear they had it would increase in this place. ~Great,~ she thought quietly.

With Alex's spew about his powers and talents Lou's attention snapped back to the task at hand. When he finished with the biting of his tongue the dark haired woman stepped forward. "I can suck the warmth from the air and if I be dropin' the temperature enough my fear projection will be activated. I also have another power but it won't be needed." Briefly she shot a shifty look at Mina wondering if not telling her final ability would hurt the team in anyway. ~Knowing I can suck out a person's soul would scare them, greatly.~

"I have a good knowledge of the history of the world as well as other talents that might help," she ended with no more explanation knowing full well that a time limit was a precious thing.

Arjun watched the room change, his lips exploding into a smile. His face was full of determination, and everyone could see he was serious about succeeding. He nodded to Lou, quikly added his own bio to the groups.

"I alter the light around us to make illusions. I can keep us hidden from camera's and peoples vision, but they still might hear us. So keep quiet. Plus, I have a method of dazing attackers, so we don't need to seriouslly injure anyone. It seems that me and Lou can take care of all the people in there, right?" He said, aiming his question to the woman.

Knee's slightly bent, he waited to run down the hallway and really start the simulation. It seemed to him, that they had accidently assembled a great group.
