She couldn't go safely possess one of them without having someone to back her up - four against one would end up in her being dead or captured, rather than taking over the body of Avalanche or one of his friends. So instead of heading to go get a body with more useful powers, Guin followed her group - Mary and Cass - through the door of the nearest staircase and up the stairs. There were about four levels and from what they knew, Magneto was most likely on the top floor. 

	[color=cc33ff]"If we see anyone I can switch with, could you ensnare them in plants for me?"[/color] Guin whispered, hoping that Mary could make things easier. She still bore the wounds Sabretooth had inflicted on her. And as much as she felt suicidal at times, she didn't want to die - at least, not now and not here. Not until Magneto was taken down. Not until her family was avenged. She quietly climbed the stairs, reaching the top floor without seeing another soul. She slowly opened the door just a crack and didn't see anyone in the hallway. [color=cc33ff]"Coast seems clear,"[/color] she whispered. 

	Meanwhile, Jade had gone through the same door that Edus had, ascending a new staircase. She was moving quietly and stealthily, doing her best to not be heard. As she went from floor to floor, she didn't hear or see anyone. It seemed all but abandoned. But most likely, everyone was concentrated to the top floor, those on lower levels perhaps being pulled out to respond to Thor, Hulk, and the Thing. When Jade reached the landing of the top floor, she paused for a moment, listening. 

	There were footsteps, coming from directly outside of the door. Jade had to make a flash decision. There was nowhere obvious nearby that she could hide and sprinting down to a lower floor would only cause noise. Instead, Jade readied her angel blade, prepared to stab anyone or anything that came through the door. The blade had killed the devil - she figured it was good enough for the mutants.
