Andy paced a little. She was nervous. The birds sort of freaked her out. "Are you okay? It seemed like the bird got you pretty good there." She asked, petting Chocolate to calm herself down. She noticed the book, tilting her head slightly. Andy had a whole lot of questions about this place, but no idea how they could find out the answers. And if the answers were even important. She could appreciate the small space of sanctuary. As long as it seemed they wouldn't get in trouble for using it.

"Think this book might have some answers about this place?" She pointed the book out, not knowing Mary had seen it too. She flipped open the cover of the book, it took a few pages, to find writing but when she did the journal mentioned Camp Half-Blood. "Uh...This seems important."

In their compartment, Niah turned on the TV. There was nothing of interest on the T.V. "Let's leave the door open so they know we are injured too." Niah says, but then adds in a whisper. "Means we should be careful about what we say. I also sort of want to eavesdrop."

The mist did tend to twist what people heard enough so no one thought too much of it. And adults tended to discount what kids were saying most of the time anyway. But there was something strangely suspicious about the attack. That was why she wanted to listen to the conversations going on in the car.

Niah sat near the entrance of the cabin and opened the book she had found. She half listened to the conversations going on outside their cabin, and half read the book.

~First day fit~





Rejoining the group at the swords, Andy felt a swell of anger. She was irritated at her mom. This was supposed to be a fun relaxing day, but here she was babysitting her. She was irritated at the looks she was getting. And was her mom seriously whispering virgin at half the student body as Andy crossed their paths? But something about the girl Madalyne was facing just put Andy's teeth on edge. She put the bag with the doll of her mom down so Selene could watch the fights.

There was a really tall girl there too now, that Andy didn't know. Obviously. Since she only really knew Zari in the whole school. And she supposed she could say she knew Mai, but only barely. They had said like three sentences to each other since arriving at school. Mai seemed fine. A lot of personality in a small package. But Andy figured they could get along well enough.

Andy squatted next to the bag, "I've never felt the urge to curse someone before now." She said shaking her head slightly but staring at the dark-haired girl. Zari and Victoria were squaring off and that was what Andy wanted to watch, but she also just really hoped the dark-haired girl would trip. She frowned. Where was this coming from?

"Is this your fault?" She asked the doll. "Did those chips have hate spices on them or something?" She really hoped not. She had shared them with Mai.

"Hello, Tatl. Yes, I would like a cookie, thank you." Ed smiled at the young girl and took the offered cookie. He bit it into munching while proceeding to work on the charcuterie board. It seemed it might be used by more than just him as Jaclyn entered the room. He hadn't had much chance to speak with the new member of the X-men, but he was aware she had a younger sibling that went to the school.

"Hello, Jaclyn." He nodded and put the finishing touches on the charcuterie board. "Were you looking for something to eat? If so please feel free to have some from this."

"I heard voices coming from the hall, is everything alright?" Ed assumed it all probably was okay if Jaclyn was in here, or whatever was happening was outside her prevue. That happened at the mansion often enough. He didn't get involved with any of the school's things. He wasn't a teacher. But it was nice to have kids around. It reminded him of home when it was busy. Those were always interesting times.

Rose kept still. When the men finally left, she let out a small puff of air. Guests, over the next day or so. That could mean any number of people arriving between now and who knew when. They didn't know how many or why. And the why seemed like a suddenly really important reason.

"I suppose we can make some guesses as to who. But I want to know what they are planning. And obviously, thwart them." She was in a thwart the villain kind of mood. But that was probably the storybook world talking. An image of curling up near a fireplace and reading a book next to Cassi filled her mind. To get there, there was work to do.

Colby pressed his leg against Maddie's. The touch was a comfort. "Lock her in her own tower? I'd be worried someone like Rumple would show up and free her. But I suppose if we impose some super rules on it, that'd be fine. Do we throw Rumple, Jafar, and Maleficent all into the same jar?"

Colby was getting a little antsy. He hadn't had time to sit still for days. But now that he was, part of his brain sent signals that everything was going to very wrong soon. That or he'd fall asleep. Then his stomach growled.

Ed had gone for a drive early that morning. It was nice to be away from the mansion. He was, other than the teachers, one of the older people in it and sometimes that could get suffocating. It was one thing back home where everyone was family in one way or another. And he had thought way too much about home. He had to do something about the situation there. His grandfather, the eldest surviving member, wasn't doing great. He was going to turn over the family to Ed soon and that would be a whole different mess. So the morning had been quiet contemplation.

Back at the Mansion, he found himself in the kitchen. He wasn't a great cook, but there had to be something he could throw together for a meal. Most of the actual X-men seemed to be gone. He could hear voices in the hall talking. He recognized a few of them. He couldn't quite make out what was being discussed. Ed considered sticking his head out of the kitchen and finding the source of the talking. That or focus on the snack he was trying to make.

Birds. Like the Hitchcock film. There were so many descending upon them. Andy ran with Madalyne and Mary into the cabin. Her heart pounded in her ears. She had never been afraid of birds before. But she also had never seen them act like this. It was horrifying. She understood why people could be afraid of them now.

Inside the cabin, Mads found a cellar. Inside it seemed to be someone's bolt hole. Useful for them, but how dangerous was it in the long run? Who lived in the Labyrinth? That seemed insane. It also was not what Andy had expected.

"What do we do now?" How long would they be done there? Maybe there was a secondary route out? She looked around trying to see if she noticed anything. She also looked to see how much dust there was. If this place had been recently used there would be signs of it, compared to a place that had been abandoned for a long time.

"Thank you. We appreciate it." Niah responded both for the mention of having paramedics look at them and the offer of a refund. She was more hungry than anything though. "Uh, I don't know if it is possible, but really we'd just like the food again I think. We hadn't gotten to eat much and are pretty hungry. But I understand if the birds took everything it'd be hard to do that. We're on the train for the long haul though." She explained.

"For now let's go back." She said to Stella and Jason. She headed out of the dining cabin and back to the small room they had claimed. Hoping no one had decided to move into it while they had been gone. Thankfully the feathers had done the trick. Even if it was ridiculous that they had stayed in the room when everyone else had fled. But the conductor didn't mention that.

Andy sighed. And started putting her roommate's things back where they belonged. "You can't take Mai's things." She said shaking her head. "And no. I'm not getting you ritual materials. That's how we got into this mess." Andy realized she shouldn't take Selene into Agatha's tent. She had no idea what Agatha might know and she did not want to deal with the two of them making friends. Even if Agatha was apparently transferring to a different school.

Andy then grabbed the bag she had gotten specifically for carrying Selene around. If Selene had just stayed as a box this wouldn't have gotten weird. But since she was the weird doll... Well Andy wasn't going to lock her in a trunk and hide her from the world. That would drive anyone mad. And Selene was already crazy enough. This way Selene could get enrichment.

"There is a school fair going on. You can join, but please be on good behavior, if you aren't I'll bring you back here." After putting Selene in the bag, Andy headed back out to the field. She hoped the others were still at the sword-fighting thing. Maybe when they moved onto the tent she could grab food for Zari and herself. And if, Zari's roommate...Victoria(?) wanted food for her too. And the other girl, Madalyne. Oh god, would Madalyne know who Selene was? She had said she practiced magic. What was a magic person doing here and not at like Strange Academy? Strange's school wasn't new either.

Her mind swirling and overthinking everything, like usual. She made her way back to the field where the fair was happening. Absolutely nuts. Why had she thought this was a good idea? High school, at her age? It should be different from 2020, but teens didn't seem to change. Maybe she'd have to accept that she needed to try to fit in. Coming here she just wanted to learn how to protect her mother...or rather protect the world from her mother. That was what mattered. She shivered, despite the heat and the comforting jacket that made her way too hot. Maybe she should have left that in her room. Shorts would have been a good idea too. San Francisco was never this hot. Why was southern California broken?

Emzie started to lead. They followed the map that they had of the factory. A small light indicated to them where they needed to go -the power source of the factory.

The rest of the way was clear. They had met quite a bit of resistance, but Emzie still felt it might not be appropriate. There was of course the strange droid with the lightsaber. The lightsaber that Emzie now carried. They had never carried one for more than a moment in all of their 'life'.

Emzie stopped in front of a door painted red with several numbers painted in black.

"Through this door will be the power source of the factory. The mission is to destroy that. The space battle currently happening above this planet would end faster without the swarm of droids that were being made and being shipped right out into the fight.

Rose nodded at Robin Hood's explanation. It was his mission. So if he trusted that Flynn would catch up then so be it. She smiled at Layla and stuck out her tongue, "No, never." She almost said 'that'll be the day I die' and decided that was a bit too dangerous to say in their current situation. She didn't want to risk the good old demon Murphy coming down on them.

When Robin Hood waved for them to hide she took cover near Cassi. This was bad. She hoped these men weren't expecting to run into the ones they had just taken out. She held her breath, not wanting to risk being heard. If they kept going they should be fine. But if these men looked for the ones they had killed they'd have to fight them. For all the same reasons they had the first fight.

A sense of relief went through Colby at Jasmin's comment. The Genie was good and had been freed. They could do it again. He was less concerned about the wording now. But knowing what they wanted to ask before they asked would be good. That way whoever did the asking was less likely to mess it up.

"Since, he'll help willingly, the ask can be on the more vague side. We could ask something like 'the forces needed to assault the castle' and I don't know 'a grenade that can kill her while hurting no one else.' Colby gave a bit of a shrug with the second one. He wasn't certain what they could ask for. The Genie might even have some ideas himself.

Andy shook Mads hand, then glanced in the direction of the fireball, but since none of the teachers seemed worried and there weren't any more signs of something like a fight she assumed it was okay. Though, part of her stayed aware of it. She did not like fire. There was the whole dead adoptive parents thing associated with it.

Then her phone chirped. It was the special tone she had for her mom. So before even looking at her phone, she was groaning. "How about I meet you there? I need to grab something from my room." The thought of her mom being bored and left in the room suddenly seemed like a terrible idea.

"I'll be quick. Meet you at the sword fighting, then after we get a turn there go for fortunes and then some cotton candy. Sound good?" She was mostly telling Zari, but the other two girls were included in her glance. She wasn't excluding them.

This also meant she was going to have to walk around with the dang doll. There was no way anyone who was already snickering at her would let that slide. Why had she let herself be convinced to go back to high school? Sure she was technically seventeen but she didn't fit in here. Of course, there was finally a mutant school that wasn't a prison in disguise or owned exclusively by a rich white dude and she had been born twice as long ago as any of her classmates.

Hating it all...except Zari, who made being here worth it. She left the trio of girls and went back to her room.
