X-MEN HALL CENTER 3RD

---

The Center Hall of the third floor can be accessed by elevator or by the stairwell, and it is the hub of the students' dormitories. It is a relatively small, spartan area with doorways to four separate hallways: The boys' wing, X-Men Hall West 3rd; the girls' wing, X-Men Hall North 3rd; and two coed wings, X-Men Hall East 3rd and X-Men Hall South 3rd. In this location, one can easily note the transition from refined manse of the floors below to the unadorned plainness that befits an active student residence. While the Center Hall itself boasts a hardwood floor with a fringed area rug, a nondescript wall-to-wall Berber carpeting starts at the threshold of each of the hallways' openings.

Friday, November 18th

Valerie paused a moment in the Center Hall after appearing from the girls' wing, as if she momentarily forgot where she was going. She was, in truth, just trying to decide which kitchen to stop in before hitting the gym. Her flaxen ponytail bobbed to one side as she cocked her head, and she shrugged minimally to herself before down X-Men Hall East 3rd.

Finally, Valerie, who reappeared from the East Hall, paused to breathe. The blonde walked at a leisurely pace as she made her way to the elevator to hit the down button. 'Can I use the same simulation?' she asked, honestly unsure of how the whole Danger Room thing worked, especially if a scenario had been tailored to one person. When the elevator arrived, she stepped inside, and her pointed right index finger wavered a moment between the first floor and underground complex buttons.

"The one is a survival simulation," Mihir explained. He entered the elevator and watched her hesitate at the buttons. "The others might prove difficult, as they are strictly fire related, but the survival course is little more than a jungle obstacle course." It was hard for him to fully explain without showing her. Mihir shrugged slightly, not sure if she would be interested.

'Oh, I can totally do an obstacle course!' Valerie confidently stated, and, with no further hesitation, she selected the button to send the elevator car to the X-Men Hall Complex.

Mihir smiled and nodded. "Good," he said as the doors shut and the elevator took them down.

Reaching the 3rd floor, Nathan headed through the hall and down the X-Men Hall East 3rd.

Almost out of breath from her flight up the stairs, Endelyn lost the water trail Nathan had left behind. With an annoyed groan, she looked around and decided to just head back to her room, thinking it would be best just to read more in her room. She walked slowly and dejectedly down the X-men Hall East 3rd.

Light came from the South Hall, dressed less revealing than she normally appeared, and moving towards the East Hall, she hesitated. Knowing there would be more people in the kitchen on the third floor, and feeling less than sociable, Light turned and headed instead to the elevator, pressing the button and stepping in as the doors immediately opened, hitting the button for X-Men Hall 1st

Walking out from the North Hall, Flame hit the button for the lift, taking it down to X-Men Hall 1st.

Korvka walked straight from the stair to X-Men Hall East 3rd, carrying her black leather book of music under one arm... and then returned a few minutes later dressed in exercise pants and a sports bra, her long hair swinging behind her. She pushed the button for the elevator and stepped in to take it to X-Men Hall 1st, wearing a wary expression on her face, as usual.

Nathan came in to the hall carrying a bloody and unconscious Lucas over his shoulder. He approached the elevators and turned, waiting for Daniela to catch back up with him.

Justin rounded the corner from X-Men Hall South 3rd and stopped in mid step when the sight met his eyes. After a second to process the scene he sprinted up to Nathan, his face full of concern, his mind already jumping to the conclusion of another attack. "Nathan what happened?"

Still a bit shaky, Daniela rushed out of the centre hall and noticed there was yet another guy with Nathan and the barely conscious Lucas. With a small nod to Justin, who she barely knew, Daniela leaned down next to the wounded kid while they waited for the elevator. "Oi.. Lucas! Don't pass out!" she said with a tiny string of voice.

"Had a ball become a bullet, and start bouncing around in the lounge. I got out from cover, and he was out cold on the floor. We're just trying to get him down to Hank," Nathan said, keeping a mostly calm demeanour.

Lucas moved slightly, mumbling incoherently until he found some words. "Ugh... lemme 'lone... He said, the blood coming from his head not getting any worse, but showing no signs of stopping, leaving drops every foot or so down the hallway.

"Well forget the elevator let me try to make a portal to to the infirmary from here!" Justin shot out after hearing the situation. he wasn't even sure he could port four people but if it could help he was more than willing to try. He began to force energy into his hands and concentrate on the infirmary in case they wanted to take the portal.

"Geez..." said Daniela getting a bit flustered. "We can't leave you a lone." she added as she took off the button up checkered shirt she was wearing over her white tank top. Though normally she would've been rather embarrassed to be even be like this around guys she didn't know, there seemed to be more important things at stake right now. Holding her shirt up to Lucas' forehead, she found the spot where the blood was coming from and tied the sleeves around his head to serve as a bandage. "That'll do for now. Uhm.. Justin.. right?" she began to say, rather flustered by decisive. "There elevator is here, so thanks for the offer, could you just help hold this up instead?" she added, grabbing his wrist and moving his hand to the makeshift bandage, if the boy paid any attention, she would have noticed her hand was tiny and soft, but also shaky and rather hot. "Let's go." she finally added, her nose, cheeks and ears a rosy tint as she walked into the elevator and, as soon as the boys got on it, pressed the button down to the X-Men Hall Complex.

Justin's face flushed as she first took her shirt off but almost immediately wore off as the situation caught back up to him. He nodded as he put pressure on the 'bandage' to stop the bleeding following her orders. Daniela's shaking hand took him by surprise but he stayed calm so she wouldn't freak out even more. Poor girl is scared out of her mind he though following her into the elevator hand still on the shirt.

Nathan followed the other two into the elevator, Lucas still over his shoulder.

Light came up from the second hall, wearing only a bra and sweatpants, and stopped in the middle of the hallway, fuming. She looked down the south hall, hesitantly took a single step forward, then cursed under her breath and dropped down at the wall beside her, truly not wanting to go back to her room yet again. She'd spent too many days holed up in the dark there, and she needed out. Pressing her back against the cool surface, she pulled one knee towards her chest and dropped her forehead against it, breathing deeply as she tried to control her anger at Vlad. It was just starting to hit her that her anger was probably irrational. Why should she even be mad? She was the one in the wrong for continuing to wear Shade's shirt, and Vlad had only accidentally ruined it. The girl thought maybe she should be thankful, instead, that the Russian had helped her get rid of the damned thing, bringing her one step closer to, hopefully, getting over Shade.... but still, that was the one thing she had left of him to hold on to. "Jesus, you act like he died," she muttered to herself, lifting her head once to smack her forehead lightly against her kneecap, attempting to knock some sense into herself, which really didn't help with the recurring nausea. Finally, the girl sat silent for a few moments before lifting her head and resting it against the wall, sitting completely still with her eyes closed as she calmed down and the sparks that her hands had begun to emit subsided.

Coming out of the north hall, Magnolia entered humming softly. She did not see Light on the floor at first, it wasn't until she had just past the girl that she saw her out of the corner of her eye. Maggie backed up, she had never seen Light like this, angry yes, mean yes, but sad? Never. She had no idea what to do, she wanted to help but Light was notorious for keeping mostly to herself. Taking a chance Maggie said softly. "Light, are you alright?"

Light raised both her hands and pressed her palms firmly to her closed eyes, as if to relieve the pressure of a headache, and slowly ran them back over her forehead and through her hair, pushing it out of her eyes. Hearing a tiny voice, the girl sighed and opened her eyes to see Maggie standing in front of her looking concerned. "I'm fine," she said simply, wondering why the girl was even bothering to speak to her when they had never held a conversation before. It hit her that sitting shirtless in the middle of the busiest hallway in the mansion was a bad idea and she'd be attracting more attention than she needed or wanted at the moment. "You shouldn't wander around this place alone," she warned as she pushed herself up off the floor. Straightening out her pants and running a hand through her hair, Light walked across the center hall to X-Men South 3rd without an explanation for her last statement.

Realizing she shouldn't have spoken to Light, Magnolia backed off as the girl answered curtly and pushed herself up. Maggie noticed the girls strange attire as she said something weird. It was a warning, but one that wasn't really needed, at least Maggie though she didn't need to have a body guard just to walk from class to class. She thought it was safe here, bu maybe Light knew something she didn't? This but the girl on edge as Light walked away. Confused, Magnolia shrugged and turned, wondering where she could find Mihir. She pressed the elevator button and waited for it.

Coming from the South Hall, Light made her way across the center hall and towards X-Men Hall East 3rd, now fully dressed in all black, but her arms and face covered with smears and spots of blood, though she seemed unharmed and perfectly fine, if not a bit cold and worried. The girl ignored Magnolia, wondering briefly why she was still standing around, and made her way straight to the East hall. Moments later, she came back through the hall, this time without even a glance to Maggie, and headed back down X-Men Hall South 3rd, carrying two water bottles and a bag of chips.

Lire walked down the hallway carrying her bag of goodies. She noticed Maggie and sent a smile and half wave in her direction before turning and going down the X-Men complex staircase, deftly jumping and lightly landing on each step as she skipped 2 or 3 at a time in her hurry to get down.

Magnolia, who had spaced out and just stood there for a while, jolted back down to earth as she heard Lire come into the hall. She looked up at the girl, only able to give her a small smile. Maggie didn't let things go easily, and Lire pulling a dagger on her was something she wouldn't forget. The elevator doors had been open for awhile as Maggie had stood there. She looked at them, then at the stairs and sighed. The harp had been calling her and now was the time to answer. She went over to the stairs and went down to X-Men Hall 2nd. She appeared back into the hall and happily walked down to X-Men Hall East 3rd, excited.

Ding! The elevator pulled up, groaning all the way under a weight that could only belong to Vlad. True enough, the golden doors opened and the handsome Russian stepped out, carrying luggage against his chest so that both his hands were occupied. "Didn't mean to take off like that, I hope he makes it to a bathroom," he said, seemingly to no one until his large frame was out of the way and a smaller student could be seen behind him. He waited for Elianna, the hidden girl, once he was well out of the lift and nodded his head towards the north hall. "That hall is for girls dorms only" he explained and then led his eyes down to the west hall, "boys only dorms down there. The dark von is the south hall, co-ed. You're in the east hall, it's co-ed too. Follow me," he encouraged warmly, gesturing over his shoulder towards X-Men Hall East 3rd before he turned around and led at a pace she could easily follow.

Pausing before exiting after Vlad, Elianna looked around the hall curiously. She walked out, her eyes following where he nodded too. "Oh." Was all she had to say in response to the large Russian. She was looking around, wondering what it will be like living here, as she started to miss Vlad's exit. She looked back to him, only to find him disappearing into a hall. She scrambled after him into X-Men Hall East 3rd.

Jonas walked out from the boy's west wing and looked around. Again, there was no one in the hall and he sighed softly in relief, though it didn't help his mission any on finding out the time. Jonas looked at the elevator, and thought about taking it, then looked down at his hands and realised he forgot his gloves. "Greaat." he said sarcastically, sighing. He shoved his hands into his pockets and headed for the stairs, grumbling about how crappy his luck was as he walked down to X-men Hall 2nd.

Coming into the Center hall, rubbing her eyes, Light was reluctant to open them again, the bright lights stinging her even through her eyelids. Opening one eye so she could see, she turned right and went down X-Men Hall East 3rd, her vision slowly adjusting to the light.

As Valerie slipped into the center hall from the stair well, a soft sigh pushed through her lips. It looked as if whatever she was reading on her phone didn't agree with her. She paused momentarily as her thumbs flew over the touch-screen in a flurry of movement before she continued on her way down X-Men Hall North 3rd.

There was somewhat of a strange noise coming from the east hall - probably a gaggle of students making mischief, Korvka surmised without real interest. Instead of walking down the familiar path to her room, however, the Russian girl turned towards the south hall, her thoughts flickering to Light. There was a sinking feeling in her stomach as Korvka realized she hadn't made any effort to be there for her after the whole prank, Shade, Camille fiasco, and now she'd made plans that actively didn't involve her. Regardless of the fact that she felt strongly that Light wouldn't be interested, Korvka wanted to try to do something nice for her, and so she set off down X-Men Hall South 3rd with a plan in mind.

Finishing her jog up the stairs from the first floor, Flame blew out a breath, stretching out her arms as her shoulders continued to protest. Planning to grab a shower before going to find Korvka, she stepped into X-Men Hall North 3rd. It was awhile later before she reappeared, only to head down X-Men Hall East 3rd in search of Korvka.

Bundled up in Vlad's arms as he rushed her out from X-Men Hall East 3rd, Flame held the Russian's shirt tightly against her bleeding side, teeth gritted in pain the entire way. She knew she wasn't in immediate danger, it wasn't like she had nicked a major artery, but by the colour of the blood coming out of the spear wound Addy had indeed not only gotten a chunk of her liver but also her gallbladder, the green bile mixing with the blood to create a dirty blackish mess that soaked its way through the shirt. Either way, it hurt like a bitch. Holding her body rigid against Vlad's mass, Flame snarled in pain. "Goddamn Christ! Why can't this place ever be normal?!"

Vlad rushed, making an awful ruckus as he ran from the east hall and immediately started jabbing the elevator button, cracking the plastic face of it in his panic. His heart was hammering at his ribs like a dog ready to tear free from its leash, sweat gripping his brow and rolling down his neck. When Flame spoke, the cavalier attitude she adopted did not sit well at all with him and he found himself barking at her rather irritably, "Don't talk!" His accent was stronger, his words harsher, his tone quite curt. In his frenzied state he did not stop to think of Flame's regenerative abilities and instead was deathly afraid that she would bleed to death in his arms while waiting for the goddamn motherfucking elevator...! Finally, it dinged and he stepped inside, instantly cracking the case on the button that would take them to X-Men Hall Complex.

Just a few minute after Vlad trampled everything in his path, Light came from the same area, cradling some fruit and ice packs, but decided on a different direction of travel, heading down X-Men Hall South 3rd.

After the previous trio of individuals passed through the area, going about their business at varying levels of urgency, Valerie entered from the North Hall. As she further removed herself from the vicinity of her room, the girl's mood began to lighten, and a sort of placid expression finally graced her face. Any of the strange and unfortunate goings-on in other areas of the mansion remained, as of yet, unbeknownst to her, and there was no reason she ought to let her own personal black cloud be her constant companion. The phone in her hand beeped, and her vacant, vague smile flickered to nothing as she dutifully checked the last several messages that she'd neglected, coming to a distracted halt somewhere in the middle of the hallway to do so.

Jabbing the button to call the lift, Korvka waited quite still, glancing down to the east hall where the commotion was said to have come from. She started to move down that way to investigate the damage, but right then the elevator rang and the doors opened. Stopping short, she turned and entered the lift, taking it to X-Men Hall Complex, wearing a cold face.

So engrossed was Valerie in her current texting conversation, she didn't notice anyone in the vicinity until Korvka was getting onto the elevator. Her mouth pursed then pulled to the side, as she mentally chided herself, though her friend seemed to have been equally distracted. Zipping her phone into her wristlet, Val turned toward the stairwell to X-Men Hall 2nd, having decided not to wait for the elevator's return.

Endelyn came out briskly from the east hall, heading for the stairs that would take her to X-men Hall 2nd.

Kenna came up the stairs from the X-men Hall 2nd looking as determined as ever, each step full of resolute confidence. The fiery haired girl then simply turned to the X-Men Hall North 3rd as if it was the most natural thing in the world.

A few seconds later, a girl's voice with a thick Scottish accent could be heard coming from the North Hall, calling out; "Oi! Where's me room?!!"

After a soft ding indicated the arrival of the elevator car from the first floor, the doors slid open and Valerie stepped out, a moment too late to hear Kenna's questioning pronouncement. Her attention lingered, in turn, in the direct of the South, East, North and West wings. A mixture of thought and doubt played across her features-- what if the stranger had just disappeared as she'd simply appeared downstairs? 'It shouldn't take long to find her... if she's up here,' she uttered without much conviction and stepped toward the doorway to the East hall to take a gander down the corridor.

Marcus stepped out of the elevator and shoved his hands in his pockets, not really wanting to look for the girl, but more coming along to appease Valerie in her search to apologize. He was fine with being here, it was the apologizing thing that he wasn't too fond of. He glanced carelessly around the halls, seeing if he might spot the girl at all.

'Do you see her?' Valerie asked as she took a couple of steps into the East Hall, then muttered, 'What in the world... ' and finally exclaimed, 'Omigosh!' as she backed pedaled into the Center Hall almost immediately, not having expected to be greeted with the little scene near the kitchen. She wasn't close enough to see what exactly was lying in a bloody heap on the carpeted floor, but she was certain that it should NOT be there. Besides that, given gouged wall and flaked plaster dusting the area, it looked like a small battle had taken place. 'There's...' she started to say, the complete opposite of Marcus's dispirited demeanor. 'There is something down there,' she stated, sounding, for the time-being, more shocked than scared.

"Nope, I haven't seen anything," Marcus dragged out, really not caring at this point, until Val drew his attention to the hall. "Well, that's different. Hey, look, blood."

'Oh,' replied Valerie in a very small voice. She did have a growing suspicion, given his short answers and lax attitude, that he didn't really want to be hanging around with her anymore. 'Yeah,' she said, a little more assuredly after clearing her throat. 'It's pretty messy...' she added, sounding a little distant, unsure of how to proceed as she looked back down the East Hall briefly and wrinkled her nose before shifting toward the South Hall. 'What do you want to do?' Val finally asked, with a glance to Marcus, but without any further explanation, for she presumed that it was unnecessary.

Making it up from the X-Men Hall 2nd just as the elevator dinged, Jonas made a small mental note of the other two students in the hallway as he waited for Emily. Hands shoved in his pockets, it looked like he was just irritated from having a bad day.

As the elevator doors opened Emily stepped out her arms still wrapped around her large rucksack. She smiled at Jonas but it quickly disappeared when she saw his irritated expression. "If you have something else to do, I don't mind finding my room on my own." she said, feeling a little disheartened at his mood.

"I'm not sure. I'm just not too keen on the whole thing about trying to find that hot-head from the kitchen," Marcus retorted, "I was more looking for something kind of relaxing to do. Like watch a movie, maybe? Or a game, or something. Heck, I'd go for sitting and talking." He turned and watched the other two students clear into the hall, giving a quick nod of recognition to them, so they knew that he knew they were there.

When Jonas and then Emily entered the Center Hall, Valerie greeted them each with a friendly smile and a 'Hiya,' though she unintentionally did a double-take at the girl who was both a stranger and who had mismatched eyes with an anomalous encroachment of scales on one side of her face. Ashamed at her reaction, Val quickly closed the distance between she and Marcus and dropped her voice. 'I am really sorry that this isn't what you want to be doing, but I don't think that girl should be just running around the mansion. I just want to figure out what's... well... what happened and who she is. What happened is NOT normal, even for this place, I think. And neither is THAT,' she said, indicating the thing in the East Hall with a jerk of her head. She spoke quickly, with an anxious edge to her voice. 'I'll finish this by myself, fine, but I thought it would be smarter to not go alone. So go ahead... watch a movie, or something,' she said, sounding a little petulant, which was atypical of her normal personality.

Jonas shook his head when Emily addressed him. "I'm sorry... I'm doing it again." He said as he scratched the back of his head. "It's just that a lot has been going on lately, and it is getting a little hard to keep up." He admitted with a small shrug."I don't mind helping you find your room. Only problem is, where to be-" he stopped as he looked down the east hall and saw the carcass lying there. "... I don't even want to know at this point." He said, shoving his hand back into his pocket. "Lets start in the girl's wing."

Emily had moved to raise her hand to give a friendly wave to Valerie and Marcus but stopped when she noticed Valerie's double take of her and quickly bowed her head so her long hair fell over her face, suddenly feeling self concious that her mutating face was on show. She glanced at Jonas then towards where his eyes had travelled and gasped when she saw the carcass on the ground. "Lets get out of here.." she said in a frightened tone as she quickly averted her eyes back to Jonas's face, hoping he would lead the way to the girls wing.

Marcus huffed slightly, "You're right. We don't need someone like that just wandering around here. And I shouldn't let you go after her yourself, so let's keep going." He shrugged back his shoulders, hoping to catch some idea of where the new, strange girl went off too. He still didn't necessarily like the idea of trying to find her, but he wasn't going to get Valerie mad at him, not let her look for someone that could be dangerous alone.

It was clear that Valerie was prepared for an argument, or at the very least was ready to be told see ya!, but when neither happened, the edges around the hardened, unbecoming set of her brow and jaw softened immediately. 'Really?' she asked, unaccustomed to both putting her foot down and winning a battle of wills. Mollified, Val stepped back from Marcus's personal space and changed gears again. 'Well, I didn't see her in South, and West is the boys' wing, even though I guess she could have wandered that way... so that pretty much leaves North, if she's even up here... unless she actually, like, was somehow able to get into one of the rooms. Then, well...' she gave a small shrug and trailed off. She cast a lingering glance at Jonas, who appeared to be unsociable as usual, and Emily, who seemed to be having a moment, as she stepped toward the North Hall. The blonde stopped at the doorway and let out a little breath of air, then looked like she wasn't sure if she should proceed or not, before stepping into the X-Men Hall North 3rd.

Jonas wrinkled his nose at the sight, though he was sort of curious about it. He heard the fear in Emily's voice and decided he would check it out later instead of making the girl go through it. "Right. And I'm sorry if I seem.... rude." He said, as he started walking into x-men hall north 3rd. He decided rude was the best way to describe how he was acting.

As Jonas started moving, Emily quickly followed after him disappearing into the x-men hall north 3rd, not stopping to take a second glance at anything behind her.

"Well, onward and outward, I guess," Marcus said, stepping in behind Valerie and heading up to X-Men Hall North 3rd.

Akantha came to the top of the stairs and stepped onto the landing that was, apparently, her only destination with those stairs. She was disappointed that the climb was over, having expected there to be secret passages and all kinds of strange wonders lurking about in a place full of weirdos, but she looked left and then right and saw the hallways branching off from the center. Shrugging, she took a right and wandered into X-Men Hall East 3rd.

Kenna came out of the X-Men Hall North 3rd and walked over to the staircase, still holding Valerie's wrist and pulling the girl with her as she made her way down to the X-Men Hall 2nd.

While she wore an uneasy smile, Valerie tagged obediently along in Kenna's footsteps, also proceeding down the stairs to X-men hall 2nd after exiting the North Hall.

Marcus followed behind the two girls and swiftly headed down the stairs to X-men hall 2nd.

Stepping off of the elevator with all the enthusiasm of a prisoner of war, Korvka stretched her arms above her head and yawned fully, tears even collecting in the corners of her eyes. She looked down the east hall before proceeding down it, knowing that she needed to prepare for a scene of massive carnage. Light had told her what happened but seeing it for herself would be another thing entirely - and she'd already had to look at Flame's mangled body. Shivering and grateful that she no longer had to stick her hands into Flame's broken torso, Korvka sighed and headed down X-Men Hall East 3rd.

Alyssa made her way into the center of the hall from the stairway and waited for Jessica to make her way up.

Jessica arrived in the center hall shortly after, and looked around. She pulled out the still slightly damp map she was given, and looked at it for a second."Ah ha," she exclaimed,"I need to go the North hall myself." Then, she looked at Alyssa and said,"So where's your room at, and you can use my map to help you." Jessica held the map out in front of Alyssa so she could check.

"I think that I'm going to be down the same hall," Alyssa said, digging up her key and looking at it, "I'm in room 317."

"So were in the same hall," Jessica said with a smirk,"I'm in room 301 it appears," she continued while looking at her key. "Shall we go together down the North Hall then," she said moving into the doorway of the X-Men Hall North 3rd, and then entering into the hall itself.

Alyssa took off behind Jessica, and headed down X-Men Hall North 3rd.

Justin turned the corner from X-Men Hall East 3rd and looked across the hall looking for anyone to talk to. "I guess people just aren't in the halls much." He could here a few voices carrying down the hall from X-Men Hall North 3rd and decided that hall was as good as any option so he took off toward it.

Stepping off of the top of the stairs, Marcus made his way to the center of the hall, taking a quick glance towards each of the halls. He shrugged, figuring that since Vlad was in a room with another student, there was a good chance that they'd put his room down the all boy's wing, and having spotted the sign for it briefly in his glances, Marcus headed into X-Men Hall West 3rd.

As Jessica made her way from the X-Men Hall North 3rd she thought she saw someone go into one of the other halls, but wasn't interested in them at the moment. She then decided to slowly make her down the stairs to the X-Men Hall 2nd.

The first thing Korvka did upon leaving the wreckage of the 3rd hall behind her was lean one hand against the wall as she checked the bottom of her shoes. "Govno," she swore as she saw a ruby red smear across the bottom of her black, lacy slip on shoe. Wiping it adamantly on the carpet she checked it again, and then the other one. Satisfied, she tossed some of her still-drying curls out of her face and called the elevator. Whipping out her phone, she dialed Vlad, who did not answer, so she took the lift to X-Men Hall 1st.

Wandering back out into the main hall, Marcus spent no time crossing over to the opposite side of the hall and in to X-Men Hall East 3rd.

Coming up from the X-Men Hall 2nd. Jessica stopped as her body screamed in fatigue. She leaned up against a wall to prevent herself from falling over,"What...the..hell....ju..st.....happ....ened?" She asked herself breathing sporadically inbetween syllables and words. Jessica thought she saw a floating skull for a second, but ran away before she could verify it. After, thinking it through for a moment she realized it must have been a hallucination brought about by her body being really cold.

Stepping onto the third floor, Eddie gave a glance to Jessica, before focusing back on Rook. "Guess we got to find you a room." He wondered if his old room was still there, or had it been re-rented out to someone else? Eddie wasn't sure which would be sadder, they trying to hold onto his items and memory, or him having been brushed aside for a new kid.

After having been brought upstairs, Rook looked around and swallowed. All this was so unfamiliar to him, and he didn't want to be stuck in another strange room by himself. <"Where should I go?"> he asked in his native tongue before he realized what he did. It would take some getting used to, this talking in English all the time. At least he didn't have an accent like his father. "Where should I go?" His voice sounded pathetic and quiet, but it was mostly fatigue.

"If you're new and you've had a room assigned to you then your name will be on the door." Oliver commented in passing as he moved past the small group of students. "You just got to look for your name kid." He smiled fleetingly at Rook as he passed then waved his hand in farewell as he moved on to x-men hall west 3rd.

After calming down, Jessica finally stepped away from the wall and walked on to X-Men Hall East 3rd

Korvka emerged from the X-Men Hall 2nd and made her way to the X-Men Hall East 3rd.

Nathan stepped out of the lift and immediately turned down X-Men Hall West 3rd.

Right after Nathan, Vlad came out of the lift and headed to X-Men Hall East 3rd

Nathan passed right by Vlad on his way out of the East hall and into X-Men Hall West 3rd.

Ignoring Oliver's comment about the rooms, Eddie nodded his head towards the X-Men Hall East 3rd. "Will see if my old room is still free and in one piece. Can crash there until we get you sorted in the morning." Saying that, he headed off towards his old room, no doubt with Rook still in tow behind him.

Exiting the elevator, Catherine looked around, wondering which way to go to her room, before heading straight to the X-Men Hall North 3rd, deciding to start there first.

Feeling tired and rather annoyed by the whole day, Kenna made it to the Center Hall from the Complex and then headed to the X-Men Hall East 3rd.

A few minutes after Kenna appeared from the elevator, Valerie appeared from behind its door, too. She went directly to X-Men Hall North 3rd.

Jonas quickly strode from the girl's hall and went ahead into x-men hall west 3rd.

Justin strode into the hall clearly exasperated, he spent the whole day looking for clues and came up bust. "Maybe ill head down a floor." He ran his hand through his hair and headed down X-Men Hall 2nd.

Daniela came up from the X-Men Hall 2nd a few minutes earlier and made a beeline straight for the girl's wing, heading to the X-Men Hall North 3rd.

Casper followed closely behind Daniela, mimicing her every move, while Shana trailed not too far beind as the came from the second hall and crossed the way to X-Men Hall North 3rd.
