X-MEN HALL COMPLEX
The halls are covered in large panels of dull grey metal, and are rather bare. Plain white lights glare from the ceiling, providing the only light, since no sunlight reaches here. They are mostly empty, and extend onwards in several directions.
X-Men Time
Friday November 18th
Perhaps suddenly aware of her chattering,
Valerie fell silent during the rest of the ride down to the complex from the third floor. With nothing more than a smile to Mihir, she stepped out of the elevator, and, even though she knew exactly what to expect, the stark contrast of the mansion above and the sterile hallway below never ceased to perplex her, and she had to blink a couple of times to adjust to the change in the quality of light. She trod lightly along the metal corridor and opened the door to
X-Men Danger Room for her companion to enter first, since he seemed to know better than she what to do.
Mihir wished he knew how to make small talk. His natural reticence meant he only really said what he needed to. Leaving the elevator, he moved into the
X-men Danger Room ahead of Val.
In light of the long day she had,
Valerie was actually looking forward to burning off some steam of her own, and she immediately slipped in to the Danger Room behind Mihir.
Making his way down the hall,
Marcus stepped in to the
X-men Danger Room.
The elevator quickly made it's way down from from the third floor, and as soon as it opened,
Daniela came out of it, holding the door open button for the other three guys that had accompanied her until they were out. Once everyone was there, she quickly walked to the
X-Men Infirmary, calling for Professor McCoy.
Justin carefully made his way to
X-Men Infirmary trying to keep his pressure on Lucas' head firm while they walked. "I hop Hank can patch him up."
Nathan came out of the elevator right behind Justin and followed him into the infirmary, close behind him as the other boy kept pressure on
Lucas' head.
Daniela walking like she was exhausted, yet keeping a brisk pace, came out of the infirmary and pushed the elevator button. The doors opened instantly, since no one had called it, and Daniela looked tiny, shaky and red in the cheeks as the yellowish light from the elevator bathed her face. Stepping in, she took it up to the
X-Men Hall 1st
Justin made it out into the hall right when the elevator doors closed. "Damn, ill have to catch up with Daniela later then. Maybe someone will be hanging out in the main hall." He reasoned with himself waiting for the elevator to come back down. After a minute or so there was a ding and the doors slid open, empty inside. He sighed and stepped in pondering which floor to search first then jammed the button for
X-Men Hall 1st.
Mihir left the danger room and walked over to the elevator. He pressed the button and waited patiently for the doors to open. After a moment, he walked onto the elevator and pressed the button for
X-men Hall 1st.
Nathan stepped out into the hallway, and briskly walked down the hallway. Getting to the end, he hit the button for the elevator and waited for a few moments. Once the doors slid open, he stepped in and pressed the button for
X-men Hall 1st.
'If you ever need to go, the infirmary is right down there,'
Valerie said while pointing in the appropriate direction, with a glance back over her shoulder to Marcus through the open door of the Danger Room as she stepped over its threshold. 'Down here kinda gives me the creeps. It's, like, too quiet, or something,' she then openly admitted, unaware of the circumstances occurring just down the hallway. The blonde continued onward to
X-Men Complex Staircase, figuring that she's start with the kitchen on the first floor, since Marcus was seemingly unfamiliar with the layout of the mansion as of yet.
Marcus looked around, taking a quick survey of the hall so he better got to know the floor layout. Without saying much, he followed Valerie up the
X-Men Complex Staircase.
The elevator dinged as the doors slid open reviling
Justin and Lire. Justin took a few steps toward
X-Men Infirmary before he faltered a bit.
I should ask her while we are alone. His right hand plunged into his pocket grasping a coin which he rubbed with his thumb when he was generally nervous. He turned slightly toward Lire as the continued to walk. "So hey, alot of odd things happening to students recently, dont ya think?
Lire stepped out of the elevator. She curiously studied Justin as she recognized his nervousness but the question somewhat settled her suspicions and she shrugged. "You could say that, although I'll admit I haven't really been paying attention."
They were half way to the infirmary when
Justin spoke again. "How could you not? Arent you worried you could be next? I mean kids being abducted is kind of a big deal." He asked, not with any type of malice but more of a questioning disbelief.
Lire managed to look sheepish, "Honestly, I haven't really been here long enough to get to know everyone and I'm horrible at meeting people in general. As for me being next... not really. I know how to fight, and the only people I'm actually worried about has thus far not shown their faces. At least for the most part." She muttered the last phrase as she thought back on the suspicions that had been developing over the last few days. "Who's gone missing, anyways?" She asked curiously.
"Two kids who had come in when i did as far as i know, but i mean i guess since we are mutants its always a risk i suppose."
Justin and Lire had just reached the door when he finished. He took a side step and politely opened the door to
X-Men Infirmary for her. "Her ya go, chivalry isn't dead where im from."
"Hmmm... that is strange though."
Lire mused thoughtfully. She looked up when Justin opened the door and smiled at him, "Thank you." She murmured and dipped her head, "You're a dying breed." She chuckled as she stepped past him and into the
X-Men Infirmary
The elevator doors opened to a grim scene as
Vlad exited immediately, nearly bursting through the metal to make a beeline for the infirmary. He was holding Flame to his chest the way one would carry a bride, but she was not decked in white, nor were either of them wearing smiles. Vlad's face was terribly grim, his face sweating, his shirt off and balled up in his lady's hands as blood dripped from her wound. He ran, causing the whole place to tremble, to
X-Men Infirmary.
Stepping from the lift,
Korvka's stomach knotted up. She had ridden with the blood splatters at her feet and knew who it belonged to. Vlad's flesh couldn't be pierced - it wasn't his blood. If Flame lost too much then she'd be unable to regenerate...a
nd the trail led straight to the infirmary. Gulping down the knot in her throat that told her the possibility of death was quite real, the stoic Russian yanked open the door to X-Men Infirmary, knowing her answers were on the other side.
Throwing his hands in front of him as he exited the infirmary with gusto, Vlad headed directly to X-Men Complex Staircase. His eye was covered with a makeshift bandage from a labcoat that he'd strapped around his head, but it was good enough to deal with the likes of the Addy-girl.
Ivan waited for the doors of the elevator to open, and then dashed out. He looked around for a second, and knew exactly where the infirmary was due to the trail of blood. He quickly followed it, and entered into the X-Men Infirmary. Not completely knowing what he'll find there.
The elevator went ding! and the doors pulled apart at the center to reveal Vlad. Still bloody, still wearing his eye-patch, and now with much more to think about, he walked into X-Men Infirmary wondering where to begin. Professor was possibly missing, Addy's lookalike was, he thought, being pacified by Endelyn, Flame looked like a raw rack of ribs on a hospital bed, and he had managed to fuck up the one thing he thought he'd be good at: keeping this place safe.
Emerging from the infirmary after what seemed like ages locked inside, Korvka walked straight to the elevator and when it opened, she took it to X-Men Hall Center 3rd, wearing a tired expression as well as blood splattered gym clothes.
Vlad came out of the X-Men Infirmary, looking beaten and exhausted, and took the elevator all the way up to the X-men Hall Center 3rd.
Kenna emerged from the elevator, coming down from the first floor hallway with the wounded Mihir in tow. One could tell the small redheaded girl was a bit awkward with physical contact, having usually avoided anything that could trigger her disastrous powers, but stern and rough around the edges as she was, she took no pleasure in seeing others suffer. Unless they were dumb. Or annoyed her. "Here we are." she announced, stopping in front of the infirmary.
"Thank you," Mihir said, giving Kenna a brief and quick smile. "I will probably stay here for the evening," he informed the girl before ducking into the X-Men Infirmary, intent upon getting some sort of wrapping on his hands.
"Ok then, g'night." replied Kenna as she turned around and crossed her arms, looking around once the boy had walked into the infirmary. "Now what do I do?" she asked herself, considering she didn't really have a dorm room right now. "Guess I'll jist have to crash in th' loonge for tonight." sighed the girl before she made it for the elevator and took it all the way to the X-Men Hall Center 3rd.
