Remy Lebeau had always had a gift for survival, his life had been anything but easy but he knew how to charm people and that, notwithstanding the odds, he could win any bet. He had a mutation that was powerful enough to help him get out of many complicated situations and he knew that his personal charms could do the trick with almost any woman and this chick with purple hair was no different. The white devil smiled pleased and sure that he would survive again.
Psylocke was not so sure, she had been trying to focus her powers but it was painful and complicated, lots of voices and images keep getting in the way, she couldn´t understand most but then suddenly she saw an image of the guy in the cage next to her, he was out, somewhere else and he was falling to the floor, shaken by pain, his face a mask of suffering and his bright red eyes closing.
-"You will die"- Psylocke announced him
-"Let me doubt it"- Remy was not worried in the least
-"Mark my words, you will die. I have seen you falling, I think I have seen your future"- She explained
-"Everyone has to die, chere, it is just a matter of chosing when and where"- He smiled again-"and I can assure you, mon ami, that it won´t be here"
-"No, wait…."- She saw something else, a woman, a beautiful one was attacked, she cried and fell to the floor like a broken doll. This was getting annoying.
-"Something interesting?"- Remy arched an eyebrow
-"Not really"- She massaged her temples in an attempt to drive the images away.

Pietro had been still for a while, he had alreay annoyed John and he was getting bored. Wanda was still trying to learn control with the guy with the visor and Pietro was trying to find something that could amuse him. He saw Mystique and walked to her. The woman was interesting, no denying that.
-"I have heard that you could turn into anyone"- Pietro said
-"Yes"- Mystique turned into Pietro, he seemed pleased-"I should have known that you would love to be in front of the person you love most"
-"That is a lie"- Pietro argued
-"True"- Mystique changed again and turned into Wanda-"You adore that little witch, but she is busy now playing with the other kids"
-"You know what my father is planning to do with us, my sister may be naïve but I know he has us here for a reason"
-"He is your father, he loves you"- Mystique recovered her usual blue looks
-"As I have said, I am not the naïve one"- Pietro repeated.
-"Then be prepared, because this won´t be a picnic"- Mystique warned him.

Xavier was working on cerebro, he was trying to make some modifications, but without Hank´s skills it was proving to be a hard task. Storm walked in the room.
-"Ororo, what brings you here?"- Xavier was pleased to see her.
-"Hank is much better, Professor, he will be able to help you with that in the morning. I have checked on the students, everything is fine, for now"- She informed him-"I thought you would like to hear it"
-"I am worried by what we don´t know, Warren refuses to contact his father and even if he does there is no way to make him tell us the truth. I have been trying to use Cerebro to located Magneto before he makes something foolish and dangerous but my telepathy is not strong enough. I am afraid I feel useless"- Xavier confessed
-"Don´t say that, just having you here with us is enough, Professor"- Storm told him-"the students feel so much safer now, and most of the parents that called didn´t want their children out of your protection either, that must mean something, don´t you think?"
-"My dear, you do know how to cheer me up"- Xavier stopped tinkering with Cerebro.-"But we are still lacking the power to control this machine"
-"We have one of the most powerful telepaths sleeping in the building"- Logan interrupted them
-"She has the mental blocks, Logan, she cannot use Cerebro, the blocks do not let her use all her power"- Storm argued
-"Well, actually she could use it, the blocks are not as strong as before, it was impossible after all that has happened within her"- Charles explained
-"But it could be very dangerous, she could loose control"- Storm´s voice was worried
-"The Professor could help her"- Logan said-"I am not sure she will be up to this, she is quite weak right now, she is not taking very well all that has happened, specially Scott´s departure"
-"She is not the only one"- Storm said-"If she agrees to do it, Professor, Could be find Magneto?"
-"She could find him, but first I have to make sure I will be able to help her control the Phoenix."- Xavier thought about it-"It might be difficult"
-"We won´t do anything that endangers her safety but we need her"-Logan said
-"Right now we need all the help we can get"- Storm added-"I hate the idea but we could give it a try"
(hope the story is getting too boring)
