X-Men/X-Changed, Issue1: Trial By Fire

[Velenne]

"Did somebody mention breakfast??" Flex perks up and his belly takes notice as well, issuing its own agreement, "I'll chop up some grilled chicken and eggs with some Tabasco sauce."

'Some' meant at least a pound.

"Oh, and lots of coffee. Got it. And you ain't gotta worry about me Professor. I'm laid back, y'know? This is some messed up stuff but you'll shoot straight with me so it's all good. Hope this Sharon chick likes strong coffee..."

"Brandon you know your way around can get something to drink? I will go find some clothes for Angela."

"Can do, boss," Brandon said with a smile, his voice normal. He pulled off his mask and shook his hair. Brandon unclasped the cape and tossed it aside with the mask. 'It's good to get out of the cape and mask. I know its for maintaining a secret identity, but still . . . what a pain,' Brandon thought.

"So, Angela, what would you like? Soda, water, beer?" Brandon asked his nose buried in the refrigerator.

Danny Rand's place

She took a seat upon the couch, looking around the place curiously. Somehow, it did not look the same way she imagined a caped crusader's home would look. Still, she was glad for it.

"So, Angela, what would you like? Soda, water, beer?" Brandon asked his nose buried in the refrigerator.

"Uhm... water please.." she replied. Carefully, she got to her feet once more, and continued to look around, more out of curiousity than anything else. besides, she was afraid that if she remained seated, she would fall asleep right then and there.

"I hope this will do for now. I think some food, a shower and sleep are what you need now. You can have them in any order you like. But I guess we should get you a warm meal first before you just drop from exhaustion."

"Thank you," she said, gratefully accepting the clothes. His words, and the gnawing pain in her stomache, reminded her just how hungry she was. "A warm meal would be great...." She then smiled shyly. "I cannot thank you enough for your kindness. You and Brandon."

Frank "Data" Morrisson

Frank looks at the screen, just having checked his mail for the second time this morning. Or is it the ninth time this night... Suddenly, technical specs for some kind of machine start scrolling up the screen.
What's this... SENTINEL? Laser? Armor? Mental note: follow that up. Not that I should have trouble remembering that... And now the phone's ringing? This could be an interesting day. Frank thinks as he copies the specs to a file and then rushes to the phone and picks it up.

"Frank Morrisson..."

Danny Rand's place

Danny stands up and picks up a leather jacket.
"I'll be right back. Angela looks like she could starve us away while I cook so I'll get something from the Dinner around the corner."
He takes Brandon aside at the door.
"Just stay with her, I bet it only takes some strange noise to scare enough to start running again."
He smiles encourangly.
"You want something too?"

"Just stay with her, I bet it only takes some strange noise to scare enough to start running again." He smiles encouragingly. "You want something too?"

“When don’t I?” Brandon said with a wry grin, “Though nothing too heavy, I’ve gotta keep my figure . . . never know when a pro scout will come a calling.”

Brandon found a clean glass and got some water out of the refrigerator. Adding ice he brought it over to Angela. “Here ya go. . . enjoy.”

Brandon flopped down in a recliner, some place that he would have good visibility of the room . . . but also because it was comfortable. He wanted to change clothes, get out of the uniform that now felt silly in these surroundings. But he didn’t want to leave Angela alone, on Danny’s orders, and, . . . well . . . also because it seemed she needed protected. It struck a chord with Brandon, and he wanted to keep her safe, even if he couldn’t keep himself safe. Brandon started to relax, and adding to Angela . . .

“Take a load off, Danny’ll be back in a few. You’re safe here . . . and among friends.”

"Thank you... " she accepted the water with a weak smile and took a sip. She was amazed at how good it tasted. The water at the asylum had come from a well, so it had alwas tasted like it had a lot of sulfur in it.

She was quite jumpy, turning to look whenever she heard a noise, and nearly jumping out of her seat when a car backfired on the street below. Trying to relax some, she tried making conversation. "Uh... what month is it?"

Westchester, New York
The Xavier Institute of Higher Learning at Graymalkin Lake

After some breakfast the Prof locked himself away to do whatever it is he does with all that computer stuff he has. Especially that stupid looking helmet.
So Flex is the only one who's there to answer the door then Shar finally arrives at the institute.
For Shar it is a surprise as she has no idea who Flex is or why he is in the mansion at all. And having someone with his appearance suddenly tower over you in a doorway is not eactly a pleasant morning surprise.

As pleasant as hope is it doesn't help a bit then Alicia hears footsteps behind her. With a look behind her she can see the two suits leave the restaurand and mount silencers on their guns before they run after her. One tries a shot before she manages to get around a corners but misses. You can see it hits a wall right beside you.

Frank's apartment

"Good Morning Mr Morrison. I have a proposal for you."
It's a male voice that sounds so terribly normal that you think it must have been altered some way.
"I trust that you noticed what the files I just sent you mean. They are killing machines, built only to exterminate people like you. And me. And there is no way to hide from them. Their mutant scanners can find you if you use your powers or not. And our talents are needed to prevent problems like them. If you are good enough that is."
