Everyone was gathered outside.  The train session was just about to be rapped up, and not a moment too soon.  If they had to hear Scott shout, "You have to work together!" one more time they were all going to 'work together' to gag him.

Storm was in the air still.  There was a nice breeze at the moment and she wanted to enjoy it.  Rahne was flirting with Roberto over by a patch of trees and Star was chatting with Jubilee.  Everything seemed to be normal.  But like all good thing it came to an end.

The wind picked up and Ororo started to feel funny.  She held her head with her hands on either side.  There was a throbbing pain, not only in her head but all over her body.  Unable to keep herself up, she dropped to the ground.

"Storm!"  Everyone rushed over.  "Are you okay?"

She pushed herself up into a sitting position and rubbed the forehead.

"I am… I'll be fine."  She said in a soft tone.

"Let's get you check out," Scott said giving her a hand up.

"No," her voice raised a little.  He looked at her funny.  "I'm just tired that's all."

"If you say so."

"Are you sure?" Kurt asked with a concerned look, which everyone seemed to be wearing.

"Nothing's broken and I'm not bleeding…unlike some," she said looking over at Star who quickly covered the bottom part of her face.

"Just a nose bleed.  It's not like I'm the one that just fell from the sky,"

"You better go get some rest before tonight." Tabitha informed Ororo.

"What's tonight?"

"Some of us are supposed to be going to that new club, remember?"

"Oh yeah,"

"Are you sure you're going to feel up to it?" Rahne asked concerned about what was really happening to her friends.

"It won't be the same if it's not all of us," Jubilee added hoping she wouldn't back out.

"I wouldn't miss it for the world." Ororo dusted herself off.

~-~-~-~

Everyone disbanded and went their own ways.  Rahne, Star, and Ororo walked together.

"You guys, it may not be such a good idea to be going out tonight." Rahne said worried.

"It's not like we're going to miss any sleep or anything,"

"You just fell out of the sky!"

"I'm fine now,"

"But for how long?"

"Hey, Miss. Nose Bleed, you're not saying much," Ororo changed the subject.

"Why did you start bleeding anyways?"

"High blood pressure," she shrugged.

"See!  We shouldn't be going out!  Not till things go back to normal,"

"High blood pressure is normal for me,"

"What if something else happens tonight?  Something worse?"

"We should go out," Star sighed.

"But—"

"While we still got a chance."  The other two looked at her.  "Listen, I know we all should think positively, but… Let's just have some fun before things get too serious."

"Girl, is there something we don't know?"

"I cut my four hour long shower to a one hour long shower and used the extra time to do some research,"

"And?"

"And… the three of us are going to try and have some fun tonight."  She forced a smile.

"What about the research?"

"Nothing was conclusive.  I still have more work to do and there are a few tests to run."

"Tests?  What tests?"

Star picked up her pace.  "Don't worry about it.  Just worry about picking out an outfit for tonight."

The other two girls looked at each other as Star hurried inside.

(Later that day.)

Rahne went to her room.  She had sent so much time in there recently that she was thinking about totally redecorating it.  She had always loved it the way it was, but spending hour upon hour day after day she was starting to get tired of it.  She pulled off her shoes and tossed them in a corner.  Her feelings were still mixed on the subject of going out tonight.  Of course she wanted to.  Roberto had been talking about how fun it would be to spend the evening out together and with friends.  She didn't want to disappoint him or herself, but she was worried.  Ororo fell!  She lost control and dropped to the ground!  Star was hiding something too!  What did she find out?  She seemed so serious earlier.  Rahne's head was spinning so she took a seat on the edge of her bed.  She didn't feel too hot herself.  But at least nothing had happened to her… yet.  It was only a matter of time before what ever the hell was going on grabbed a hold of her the way it was trying to Storm and Star.  She got up to browse through her closet.  If they insisted on going, she was going to make sure she would be there if anything did happened.

Star walked into her room.  Logan was changing out the window.

"When you're done with that, ya think you can fix me and my jacked up take on life?"

"What jacked up take on life?"

"Never mind," she pushed the subject aside.  "Thanks for getting to the window today."

"No problem.  How did it break?"

"Opened it to hard," she answered as she pulled out a black skirt, a low-cut deep purple shirt, and her black boots.  "Ya think this will look fine?  Or should I wear that red dress?"

He glanced at the outfits and at her.  "Which ever; they're both nice."

She decided to go with the skirt outfit.  "Logan,"

He looked up at her again.

"If you knew something really bad was going to happen, what would you do?  Do all you could to prevent it from happening, on your own, even if it could mean the end? Would you get others involved risking their lives as well as yours?  Or would you just live out what little time you have left pretending you don't know about it?"

"Either way it sounds like I'm screwed," he looked at her with a concerned look.  "Star, is there something wrong?"

"No, no." she shook her head.  "I was watching this movie and the questions popped into my mind.  I was just curious as to what your answers would be."

"Personally I would go with the first one,"

"Thought that's what you'd say, you softy you." She smiled and he returned the gesture.

Ororo was slipping in her earrings.  She was wearing a light lavender spaghetti-strapped dress and a cute pair of high heels that matched.  The thoughts about what had happened this morning were pushed to the back of her mind.  Tonight was about having fun and enjoy an evening with friends.

"'Ro, you ready?" Star asked from the other side of the door.

"Yeah," she answered opening it.  "Just let me change necklaces."

"Are you guys sure about this?" Rahne asked appearing in the doorway.  She had decided on a hunter green dress that complimented her eyes.

"Relax."

"We can return to panicking tomorrow."

"Alright, but if anything—"

"You can tell us told ya so and dance on our graves.  Now let's go."
