After spending several minutes sampling Jean's choice of music (by listening to her cd and through radio presets), Miranda decided that it was finally time to call Mr. Summers. "Pyro, call Scott now and put it on speaker.."
There was a digital ringing sound from the phone's speaker followed by a cautious sounding, "Hello?"
Miranda glanced at Pyro and grinned, "Hello, Mr. Summers... I hope you don't mind my calling you on from this phone, but apparently someone stole your ride from the school's parking lot. But, just so you know, it wasn't me; 'cause I'm borrowing Jean's bmw. (It's a nice car btw, but I seriously hope that wasn't your Madonna cd in the stereo.) Anyways, right now Pyro and I are driving to New York to find Alchemist. He said he was going to the Baxter Building, but I don't think me might make it there if someone is following him.."

Few times in the history of the school has a single word been heard so clearly, but the Bomb that came out of Scott's mouth was one.
"Get back here NOW. We can track him in the X-jet, I'm not risking any more students on his foolish whims. The Fantastic Four are out of town helping the West Coast Avengers, he won't be able to get into the building and neither will you. And don't loose the damn CD."
"Sorry, Cyc.. *KSHT* Can't hear *KSHT* you're *KSHT* Breaking *KSHT* *CLICK* Pyro looked at Miranda as he hung up the phone"Musta been a bad connection. C'mon babe, let's get there quick." He placed a hand on her leg, urging her to keep going, and turning up the volume as AC DC's "Highway to Hell" came on, grinning widely at the irony.
A moment later, the Phone in Alchemists Car began Ringing. The display says 'Scott 1, and Kitty looks over at Nicholas "It hasn't been an hour, guess somebody moved up your time table."
-Alch's Room-
Temper looks around the room (finding it as described Earlier), but sees nothing too out of the ordinary. Several school uniforms (Not this school) are sitting on the bed. (The tunnel was sealed over by Alchemist).
Eric heads off after the group, but has no idea where they could have gone.. Until he hears, loud and clear down the corridor, Scott's response to his phone call.
Derek taps Temper on the Shoulder "I may not know much, but I do know Nic, and he's not gonna leave any clues here for us. If he wants us to know where we're going, Eric's gonna be the one to find out." He then takes off down the corridor, joining the gathering around Scott as the fuming teacher viciously dials something on his cell phone, pacing circles back and forth as he waits for someone to answer.

A strangely content smile crossed Miranda's lips. Miranda was well aware that she had waltzed over a line which that might negatively affect her ability to get onto the Young X-Men squad, but at least she wasn't sitting around the mansion waiting for Scott to come up with a plan of action. "So do you think that the New Avengers or the Runaways are recruiting new members?" She glanced at Pyro then laughed, "''Cuz I have a feeling that we just placed our names on the bottom of the potential Young X-Men list. Then again, at least we are doing something proactive instead of just messing around the mansion until Alchemist gets himself killed or the school is attacked!"
Miranda took her hand off the wheel, then pressed mute on the stereo then reached for the cell phone and quickly dialed a number then pressed send. "I'm definitely am going to spend a few days in detention, but this is so worth it... Hi, I'd like to order one of those bouquet of roses guy's usually get their girl friends when they do something stupid. You know, the one that comes with that teddy bear who is holding a card.... Yeah that's the one! Could you deliver it to send it to Scott Summers at 1407 Graymalkin Lane within 5 minutes? Cool.... I want the message to say, 'Sorry but I am unable to return to the school at this moment due to unforeseen circumstances. Do not worry, I shall be in your presence as soon as humanly possible. Please accept these flowers as a token of my sincerest and most heartfelt apology since I know that I have let you down. Your humble student, Miranda del Flores.'" Miranda began to giggle as she completed her order.

"I can probably track them down through the network," Serena said, eyes flickering with electricity. "This is the stupidest plan since they invented the 'frontal attack without backup'." she snarled linking up to the phone and beginning the trace. Even though they can probably do it without her, she hates feeling helpless...

Spikes senses' honed in on the area where the woman disappeared. He knows that she's there... somewhere. Not able to be seen doesn't mean not able to be heard...

The ringing phone was unexpected, noise causing Alchemist to jump in his seat, eyes narrowly set upon the road. When Kitty made her announcement, he sighed, plucking the phone from its cradle. He had the sense at least, to focus his mind, disconnecting the audio from the phone before putting it to his ear, speaking rapidly.
"I can't hear you, shouldn't be talking on the phone while driving at this speed since it isn't safe for me or for Kitty. Sorry about the car, it will be parked in Manhatten." He fought back a little chuckle as he continued. "In case whoever ratted me out didn't fill you in, I've got a GPS transmitter on me follow it but don't interfear. The number is XXX-XXX-XXXX."
He sighed for a moment, switching lanes as he accelerated, realizing now that they would soon have company. "I'm sorry for what I said. Just remember one thing. I'm not that important, and I'm not going to make anything dangerous if they catch me. Take care of the other students."
That last bit might hit a bell with Scott, a reminder of Alchemist's utter distain for creating weapons of any sort, a callback to Nicolas' grandfather. With it hanging in the air, Alchemist set the phone down, killing the ringer if Scott were to call again.
"We're almost there." he murmured.

Scott hung the phone up, jaw clenched and he looked at the students gathered around him as Phase and Temper moved in "What, were you ALL in on this? Fine, looks like we've got no choice now. I need the others here to keep an eye on the school... Alchemist, Kitty, Miranda, and Pyro are all on their way to Manhattan, and somebody's got to go after them." He let out a resigned Sigh and started walking towards the basement. "Well come if you're coming, I don't have time to figure out who to take. If you think you can help, then try to keep up... Damit, where the hell is Logan when I need him?"

-Wilderness-
Spike and Logan both move into the trees after the woman, listening, sniffing, and searching, but there appears to be no trace of her. Frustrated, Logan slices his claws through a tree, felling it. "C'mon, lets hurry, if she gets back 'n warns them, we're screwed." He begins moving away but a branch from the falling tree smashes into him, knocking him to the ground.. But it seemed to Spike as though the tree actually reached out and hit Logan..
-Highway to New York-
Nic and Kitty finally enter the city. (Are you going anywhere specific? (such as the Baxter building, as suggested earlier?) Meanwhile, Pyro and Miranda are closing in on the city fast.
