Blake walked back into her room after showering and switching from her X-Men Uniform to a pair of yoga pants and a Harley Davidson shirt that she had stolen out of Wolverine's clean laundry. Trinity looked up at her from her seat atop her suitcase, raising an eyebrow at the Canadian Harley shirt her friend was wearing.
"Did you steal one of Wolverine's shirts?" She asked the other girl with a smirk as she hopped off her bag.
"That information is on a need-to-know basis..." She told the other, faking shifty eyes then chuckling, "Besides if I told you I would have to kill you!" The blond laughed and threw a pillow in her general direction.
"So, are you excited to leave tomorrow?" Trinity asked the other getting up and moving her bag to the end of her bed, "I'm looking forward to lounging on the beach!" she added flopping down on her bed and closing her eyes as if she were lying on the sand at that very moment.
"Yeah... I guess... I've never really been on vacation before..." She told the blonde while she finished towel drying her hair, "I don't know if I'll enjoy myself... I'm not very good at relaxing!" she added hanging her towel on the foot board of her bed.
"Phoebe, Ruby, Kitty, Tabi, and I will make sure nothing stresses you out, even though your dad is one of the adults chaperoning!" Trinity told her as she stood and shoved her suitcase to the end of her bed, "So when are the people from S.H.I.E.L.D. coming to get that chick in the brig?" She asked the other standing and heading for the door.
"Any minute now, why?" Blake retorted walking to the door with her roommate.
Trinity smirked and opened the door before motioning for her friend to follow.
"Wanna go see the show?" she asked making her roommate roll her eyes then follow her to the stairs.
Both stairwells were covered in students, mostly female trying to get a peek at the three S.H.I.E.L.D. agents who were standing in the foyer talking with the Professor and Beast. Blake smirked when she saw Darius standing between a large man with long blonde hair and Agent Maria Hill.
"I can't see!" Trinity announced in slight frustration.
Blake tapped her on the shoulder and whispered something in her ear. A second later Trinity stepped directly behind the group and dropped, transforming to a leopard with her classic black and white markings. Taking in a deep breath she let out a small roar making the members of the crowd jump and quickly part to the sides of the stairwell. Blake laughed and followed her friend to the bottom of the stairs.
When they made it to the bottom, Darius walked over smirking as several of the younger girls swooned. Blake pulled him into an embrace and rolled her eyes when she noticed how the eighth-grade girls acted when he had come close.
"Thanks for coming to get that bitch!" She told him as she thought of why he was there.
"No big deal... it took a lot of convincing for Fury to let me come with them though..." he told her turning when he heard someone step up from behind him.
"Young Darius, Maria has asked that you come with me to retrieve the mutant from the bowels of this mansion!" The large Blonde Man stated loudly, making several students jump, "Who are these beautiful young women?" He asked making fire light in Darius' eyes.
"This is my little sister Thor!" Darius replied sighing when the girl chuckled at his expression, "I never caught your name before I'm sorry…" He added gesturing to Trinity.
"Trinity Sekler!" The Blonde girl replied holding her hand out and shaking both Darius and Thor's hands.
"My apologies, Sister of Darius and Trinity, I hope you have an excellent evening!" He told Blake and Trinity.
Blake shook his hand, while Trinity just giggled and waved making her roommate roll her eyes.

Jean, Shylow, Beast, and the Professor were gathered around the boy who had been residing in the hospital for several months.
"Shylow, I am going to send you and Jean back into his mind." Professor Xavier started speaking, looking at the boy lying unconscious before them, "I believe that if you can go in and help him remember who he is, then he will return to reality!" He finished seeing the two students nod in response.
Both students sat down on stools, one at each side of the hospital cot. Slowly the Professor closed his eyes concentrating on the three beings before him.
Beasts' eyes momentarily went wide when the two students slumped slightly forward, then he started checking the computer that kept the John Doe's vitals.

When Shylow became aware of himself again, he was back in the empty space and standing close by to the boy whom he had spoken to before.
"Shylow, you came back!" He said as the psychic walked up to him with Jean at his side.
He slowly stood and offer Jean his hand.
"I'm Jean, I'm one of Shylow's classmates!" She told him shaking his outstretched hand.
"I'm... I don't... I can't!" he started to stutter grasping at his head.
Shylow turned his head and hand to Jean in concern. She responded by laying a hand on the others arm.
"It's alright, you will remember in time!" she told him giving him a sympathetic smile as he lifted his eyes to hers.
Suddenly a voice could be heard from above them.
"Jean, Shylow, you do not have much time, we need to know what took place at Weapon X!" Beasts voice resonated in the space.
"My... My mother and father sent me there when they found out... about me..." The boy told them his eyes widening as he remembered the mentioned events, "They were testing... trying to see what I could handle... the pieces of the room... the equipment was flying through the air..." He added, eyes darting back and forth.
Jean and Shylow looked around seeing that what he was remembering had suddenly come to life around them.
The boy was standing in a room with an observation window on one wall, things flying through the air around him.
"It- it got to be too much... I couldn't control it!" He told them hands going back to his head.
He looked up to the two psychics as they started to fade.
"Shylow wait, I need to know who Ruby is!" He demanded.
"She goes to school with us... she found you!" The male student told him as he disappeared.

When Shylow came to, he and Jean both looked as though the energy had been fully drained from their bodies.
"You both should probably go rest, but before you go, Shylow you need to keep this between us and him... when he awakes, we can bring Miss. Milton down to see him." Xavier told the two teens to which they nodded.
Shylow and Jean walked to the tube together in silence when they made it to the second floor, they met Scott at the opening. Shylow moved to head toward his shared room with Kurt before he turned to Jean.
"Night Jean, Scott, See you tomorrow!" He told them, but before he could leave, he heard Jean speak.
"I was in Max's head out of nowhere yesterday... He misses you, but he's doing ok!" She told the younger man making him smile and nod his head before turning to walk away.
