DAYS OF FUTURE PAST, Issue #1

[Velmont]

"Better than them..." Andrew repeat those word on a neutral tone, as they are not quite right to his hear.

"A camp... not sure. Seems more like a lab or a prison of some sort. A camp, we would do some work for them. I think we are in the purgatory, waiting to know if we will go down in hell, or up in paradise... and the paradise we can hope is the camp if we just wait.

I dunno if I am a mutant. I dunno if Catherine, Gabe or Eleyna are. I have no proof, and it doesn't make a change to where we are and what will happen to us.

The only question that worth someting for now, I think, it is what we do?"

The women talking to Corey were not easily shaken. It seemed as if they had taken quite a liking to him. "Really honey, are you okay? You seem really shook up." As Corey slowly looked up to answer them he saw the worry in their eyes. Their big beautiful eyes.



Lorenzo followed Kyle's directions and smoothly rolled his car through the traffic in front of the mall. As the neared the front doors it seemed as if Kyle and Lorenzo both spotted Corey at the same time. At least they both looked in his direction and went quiet at the same time.

Corey was standing outside the front doors of the mall but he was not alone. He was with two women who were dressed like they worked at one of the mall department stores. However, they looked more like actresses on tv dressed for the part. And they were both intently talking to Corey. One of them had her hand on his shoulder as he spoke to them.

After realizing that the boys had gone totally silent, Jennifer looked forward and saw what had captured their interest. Amanda tried to see what was going on but did not seem to understand what everyone was looking at.




Detention Center

As everyone talked and tried their best to become comfortable with the unknown, a sound could be heard. One at a time they became quiet and looked up to see two cameras in each room lowering from the ceiling. They each had an eerie red light that glowed at them. The cameras did not rotate or move but, no one felt quite as comfortable in the room, anymore.

Sammy got off his bed and got an update from the others. Andrew tried talking to Catherine and to get her to relax. It seemed that Catherine had fully accepted her fate and did not want to let herself believe that anything else was possible. Eleyna tired to comfort Catherine and spent the rest of her time talking with Gabe and answering Sammy's questions. Gabe did the same. Then a thought crossed Gabe's mind, he had not turned off his cell phone. What if he got a call!

After awhile, a woman entered the girl's room. The door closed behind her, although guards could be seen outside the door. The woman looked to be about 50 years old, wore her blonde hair pulled up and wore a comfortable looking, yet professional outfit. She held herself with a confident grace that appeared natural, not practiced.

"I am Ms. Sikula. I am sure you have many questions about what has happened today and what will happen next. I am here to help you deal with your lives at this point. Can you boys over there hear me all right?"

Lorenzo Reynolds HP 2/2

. . . Corey was standing outside the front doors of the mall but he was not alone. He was with two women who were dressed like they worked at one of the mall department stores. However, they looked more like actresses on tv dressed for the part. And they were both intently talking to Corey. One of them had her hand on his shoulder as he spoke to them.

Lorenzo looked at the scene before him and almost forgot to put his foot on the brake. "Whoa . . ." was Lorenzo's first response, followed quickly by a "that doesn't seem right? . . . does it?"

Lorenzo's mind whirled, 'I think this is a set up . . . if only there was some way to be certain. If I could here their thoughts I might have some idea what to do.

He concentrated on the women, trying to see if he could figure out what the were thinking. It had always worked before.

"Oh please, none of the girls working here look sooo good."
Jen eyes the two women suspiciously.
"Just look at their faces.."
She gives Lorenzo a playfull hit to the back of his head.
"No the face is a bit farther up... . Anyway, nobody who wears such perfect makeup would be caught dead in those clothes. It's a costume I bet on it."
She sighs before saying in a lot lower voice:
"Despite as unfair as it sounds you wouldn't find Corry in the company of two women like that if things would run normal. Lets grab him and head of. Lorenzo's right, this doesn't seem normal"

 

[Velmont]

"Yes, we hear you. And for a question, I was wondering, if we are all mutant, can you tell us what mutation we have? As far as I know, I see nothing special about me, or anyone here."

 

[KaintheSeeker]

"Honk the horn Lorenzo." Kyle says as he slides out his side window and waves. "Yo! Corey! My-Man.. Come on!" he yells. "We're here, now move yer REAR! Curfew kicks in real soon and we got to get back to my house before then, COME ON"

OOC: Seeing if he feels a 'vibe' besides Lorenzo and Jennifer in the area.

Gabriel 'Gabe' Adams, HP 2/2

Detention Center
After awhile, a woman entered the girl's room. The door closed behind her, although guards could be seen outside the door. The woman looked to be about 50 years old, wore her blonde hair pulled up and wore a comfortable looking, yet professional outfit. She held herself with a confident grace that appeared natural, not practiced.

"I am Ms. Sikula. I am sure you have many questions about what has happened today and what will happen next. I am here to help you deal with your lives at this point. Can you boys over there hear me all right?"

Gabe looked up at the woman's entrance and glanced at Eleyna. He unobtrusively slid the phone under the bed to hide it as he did and then just watched Ms Sikula, his face unreadable. He made no response to her query, just continued to stare at her in a stony and slightly unnerving way. 'Yeah, right. More like try and get us to go quietly like good little freaks.'
Every so often, his eyes darted to Eleyna, constantly checking on her. Gabe felt tense and angry, like he wanted to do something, though he didn't know what. If he tried anything stupid, it'd just make things harder for the group. Still, he kept watching, hoping for...something...to turn up, any opportunity they could use to their advantage.

The women talking to Corey were not easily shaken. It seemed as if they had taken quite a liking to him. "Really honey, are you okay? You seem really shook up." As Corey slowly looked up to answer them he saw the worry in their eyes. Their big beautiful eyes.

As he looked into Jill's eyes, Corey mustered a half-hearted smile. "I'm alright. I feel better already." I actually do feel better. Weird. "I- "

"Yo! Corey! My-Man.. Come on!" he yells. "We're here, now move yer REAR! Curfew kicks in real soon and we got to get back to my house before then, COME ON"

"Oh, um, that's my ride. I better get going. Uh, Maybe I'll see you later... and thanks." Corey smiles again, more sincerely this time, then turns to head for the car.

"Help us deal with our lives? Why do they care?" Eleyna directed an angry stare at the woman. She noticed Gabe glancing in her direction every so often, and did what she could to assure him that she was alright, if more than a little irritated. Eventually, she moved herself closer to the window, to be as close to Gabe as possible while the woman spoke to them.

He looks so scared. What could panic this poor boy so badly at the mall.

I really do want to help this cute kid but if we don't get back from break soon, we're in for it.

I actually do feel better. Weird.

{OOC: Lorenzo made the telepathy check with a nice 14!}
Lorenzo shifted his head slightly as an echo of thoughts moved through his mind. It was almost as if he could hear a conversation that was just out of earshot.



The women from the mall looked sad as Corey quickly left them for the very sleek looking Monte Carlo that had moved up to the curb. Corey waved a final time and hopped into the back seat. As he did so he saw that there were already two passengers, Jennifer Allen and a very cute young girl who seemed happy and confused to see him.





Detention Center

"I don't think you understand. You are going to be taken from here soon and no one at this facility knows your final fate." Ms. Sikula was speaking very frankly with a calm but direct voice.

"We will know the power level each of you posses and an vague idea of what you can do, if those abilities are already on file. Everything else will be determined at the Federal Detention Facility in Youngstown. If you have any questions this is probably your only chance to get the answers."
