Bobby Drake™ (7/23/2006 12:00:40 AM) I've been working overtime to try to finish my correspondence courses over the summer. Its been hectic but its amazing what you can do when you're motivated. Right now though my nose isn't buried in a book and I'm not in the Danger Room or otherwise training. I'm just kinda supervising the kids in the rec room....which means I get the remote control. "If the group consensus is Saturday Night Live we're watching Saturday Night Live even if it is a repeat." Snickering the small group of students some of which want to watch it others who don't. Once they settle down though I get up and move over to the air hockey table.

Hannah Greene (7/23/2006 12:06:40 AM) Hannah slipped into the room, she didn't mind that it was full of people, nor that the one person she was looking to find was amidst a group of kids, was watching television, even. She was going to do her worst, which she was very good at. The dress she wore was sleek, black, it drew more than a few pairs of eyes. Her heels were black, yet strappy, showing the pink of her toenails. Each click of her shoes on the wood floor brought her closer until she was standing behind the couch, and behind the infamous Bobby Drake. She'd seen Bobby a few times, but the two of them hadn't really spoken much. Her soft scented perfume wafted down to him as she leaned over the couch to speak to him. "Excuse me, Bobby? Might I have a word with you?"

Bobby Drake™ (7/23/2006 12:10:09 AM) Noticing Hannah as I had moved over to the air hockey table. Some people here just don't dress like students. Its kinda funny, I've started dressing even more casually since graduating. I do notice how she's dressed and quirk a brow. "Sure thing Hannah. Going out tonight?" Leaning against the air hockey table casually.

Hannah Greene (7/23/2006 12:12:51 AM) "Yes," Hannah said before glancing up to the rest of the room, the rest of the students, then she looked back to his ...cute face. She slipped out with her senses to get a feel for his emotions, she wanted to know what frame of mind he was in, so she could proceed. She feigned a look of slight discomfort before she wrang her hands. He was a guy that students could go to, for help, so others said, even if she weren't exactly a student persay. "Well, it is ..a bit personal. Would you mind if we went somewhere a bit more...private?"

Bobby Drake™ (7/23/2006 12:15:51 AM) The emotions Hannah will get from Bobby is amusement at the kids on the sofa and a little concern for Hannah's well being since she's come to him to talk to him. "Yeah sure." Leading her out into the hall to find a more secluded area to talk. I don't have an office but maybe we can use a classroom. "So what's up?" Concern for Hannah is taking over more and more over the amusement.

Hannah Greene (7/23/2006 12:19:57 AM) Good, she thought. Her expression remained perfect with worry and touches of apprehension as she stood out in the hall with Bobby. Her powers were plucking out certain things, darker feelings in him, trying to raise them subtly. Hints at desire, and heat. But it was very soft at first. She wasn't taking his concern, but she was adding to it, lightly. "Well, a few of the students have been talking. I am not sure what brought this up, but it regards your girlfriend, Marie. I happened to overhear it, in the cafeteria. They are angry at her for..taking the cure. Not that I can blame her, that mutation must have been harsh, but, they were talking about something violent." All lies. Every last word of what she said was lie after lie. But she was so good at telling what wasn't the truth.

Bobby Drake™ (7/23/2006 12:24:58 AM) My concern does increase a little, and when she mentions Marie I feel a little desire for her. She is the woman I love after all. "What do you mean violent? Do you know which students were talking about this?" When Xavier was around he would pick up on latent hostility like that without intruding on their personal thoughts. Without him around I guess its only a matter of time before this would happen. "Taking the cure was her choice and nobody should think any less of her for it." My emotions become a little angry and protective of Marie.

Hannah Greene (7/23/2006 12:29:02 AM) "Of course, Bobby, I know that, but I felt that you should know this. I am not one of them. I would never with anything bad upon her. Some days the cure looks awfully tempting to me, as well. It would leave my mind to be my own." This was taking a turn, but...it was an interesting one. She played off that anger and desire, building both, heating them both. When John spoke of Bobby it was always with a distaste in his mouth. She wondered just what she could do to Mr. Drake for John. She would be happy to mess with his little head...and heart. "It could be...dangerous."

Bobby Drake™ (7/23/2006 12:33:10 AM) "Its a decision each mutant has to make on their own. She's made hers. That's that." My anger and desire increase, I notice that Hannah is nice looking but we're still talking about Marie and I don't want anyone to take her away from me. We're finally getting to act normal. "Who was it? Do you know which of the students it was? We'll need to tell Storm and have them removed from the school if they're a danger." Or I can just handle them myself maybe. I feel angry enough to.

Hannah Greene (7/23/2006 12:35:36 AM) "I am sorry, I do not remember their names," Hannah said as she took a step closer to him and placed her hand upon the front of his shoulder. She gave it a faint squeeze. "I am sure I can find out for you tomorrow, if you want me to." Now to move away from Marie's name. There would circulate doubt in his head first with that, for others around this school, now she had to tone down that anger and still lift that desire. "So, you are really an X-Man? I have always wanted to ask you about that. Is it terribly exciting?"

Bobby Drake™ (7/23/2006 12:40:16 AM) "Could you point them out?....yeah your way is probably easier. Don't want to tip our hats too early." Nodding and looking down as she squeezes my shoulder. As the fear starts to subside the desire takes over in my mind. It reminds me of before Marie came to the school, I was pretty flirtatious with the girls back then. "Oh yeah. Very, but very dangerous too. You have to pay your dues after all. I've been here so long and started getting more and more involved they practically had to take me in." Chuckling and leaning against a table to look cooler.

Hannah Greene (7/23/2006 12:43:57 AM) Hannah was resting herself a bit closer to him, her interest seemed keen and real as she played with his emotions as easily as a child might play with a toy. She had to be careful not to affect herself, however, that might lead to a very sticky situation she wouldn't want to deal with. "Oh, danger, I am sure you can handle it though, you do look very strong," she said as her hand skimmed down to his bicep and she squeezed. "Oh, a lot stronger than I thought, I bet." Stroking his ego, laying it on thick. This was just too easy.

Bobby Drake™ (7/23/2006 12:49:07 AM) I notice the scent of her perfume. Its nice, I should buy some for Marie.....er Marie right. "Yeah. We were right in the thick of it at Alcatraz. I totally beat down on Pyro, the smug ass." In trying to impress her with recounts of my exciting life I think about Pyro for a sec and get a little angry. Then I'm drawn back to the girl feeling my bicep. "I'm no Colossus but I can bench press twice as much as I could a few months ago. What about you, what do you do to keep fit?"

Hannah Greene (7/23/2006 12:55:14 AM) "Treadmill running, weights, swimming," that's it, she thought as she spoke, try to picture me sweaty, or in a swim suit. "It is difficult to stay trim and fit these days with all the junk food." Hannah took Bobby's hand and put it to her bicep for a return feel in that arena. She still toyed with his emotions, making them stronger. Slowly building them up. "I am not as strong as you are, though," she smiles, batting her eyelashes, and then licks her lips. The mention of John actually made her heart flutter a little, she wondered what he was doing, if he were still lounging in the suite still, or trying on the new clothes she bought for him.

Bobby Drake™ (7/23/2006 1:01:39 AM) "Swimming is good. I love the beach. Even in the winter up until it freezes over. Though most other people don't enjoy it as much." Feeling her bicep, her skin is soft. Reminds me of Marie and yes Hannah will pick up more desire but its not really focused on her, its on Marie. "You've got a good foundation going though. Besides girls need to be kinda soft and smooth. Keep up the treadmill and swimming. Too much weights are kinda a turn off."

Hannah Greene (7/23/2006 1:06:43 AM) But Hannah doesn't know that it's someone else he's thinking of, she simply thinks that her plan is working, her devious little plan. She's hoping she's blurring some lines in his mind, however. She lets his hand go, and she steps even closer, gazing up to him with those deep chocolate eyes and biting at her full bottom lip. "I have a bit of a confession to make, Bobby Drake, I really am very...very attracted to you," another lie that was so deeply convincing. And she pushed that heated desire sharply up at that confession, like one might feel a pang of it after hearing news like that. Her fingertips touched at the front of his shirt a bit, but nothing more. "I have been...watching you from afar...unsure how to approach you."

Bobby Drake™ (7/23/2006 1:13:50 AM) As she steps closer and stares deep into my eyes with her biting her bottom lip just ever so much. Its hard not to be completely attracted to her. "I'm very....I mean you're very attractive yourself. Though I'm sure you already know that." Her fingertips touch the front of my shirt and I can't help but looking down at the rapidly diminishing space between us and how its getting filled. What about Rogue? Flashes through my mind why am I.....? I see the profiles of all the students and people staying at the school. Sure I may not pay attention to all of them but emotional and physical empathy kinda sticks out in my mind. "Okay what the hell is going on?" Putting my hands on her arms to hold her at a distance from me. I don't want her to get any closer but because of her powers I also don't want getting further away. And even the sensation of my hands on her arms is making me want her more so I'm trying to focus on the anger in me for being used.

Hannah Greene (7/23/2006 1:18:26 AM) "Chemistry," Hannah twists her shoulders a bit to pass his hands, to get closer, as she keeps that energy up, keeps tugging on that single emotion, desire...though now she's pairing it up with want, and adding a touch of need. Her hands slip to touch his sides, curl up in the shirt there and she smiles delicately, temptingly. "Take what you want, Bobby. It is not hard, it is right in front of you," she pushes herself closer, until there's no space left, and her lips near his own ever so slowly. "Take it."

Bobby Drake™ (7/23/2006 1:31:27 AM) "No....no I don't...." Its all mixed up, I'm thinking about Rogue but I want Hannah so much right now. In my mind though I've come to realize that its her powers though not anything else that is making me want her. "No its not chemistry. I'm not thinking about you I'm thinking about Marie. And you're feeding on it, using it to make me want you. Why did you ask to see me alone? So you could use your powers and try to seduce me." Suddenly there is no body heat coming from me. In fact I'm drawing heat away. I'm downright freezing and it should be very uncomfortable for anyone else trying to touch me. I put my hands on her shoulders and start pushing her away more forcibly now.

Hannah Greene (7/23/2006 1:34:35 AM) Hannah's grin turns sinister, almost, and she takes a step back. She withdraws every little bit of emotion she pushed onto him, and she chuckles softly. "John sends his best regards." She wasn't going to say that she worked for him, or with him, but she knew him. Her eyes flicked up to his as she takes a step back, and it isn't emotional sensations she's pushing on him now, but physical. Christopher burned her once, it was an experiment he'd said. She knew what it felt like to have a cigarette put out on her skin, so now, so would Bobby. In several places. Small points of pain erupting all over his skin, and the fact that it's a burning pain might only succeed in hurting him a bit more as he's icy. "He has the nicest things to say about you."

Bobby Drake™ (7/23/2006 1:42:28 AM) "John." The emotions she pushed onto me fade, replaced with anger. Lots of anger. "John put you up to this? You've been in contact with Pyro?" Fully icing up now. I've been burned before too and always have cooled down the surface of the skin where it is being burned to counter it. However Hannah's effect is bypassing my actual pain receptors and making my brain think its feeling pain. "He's...having a girl fight his battles for him?" Trying to remember Logan has told me about pain, don't let it over take you. Use it. And what did Cyke always say? Mental powers require concentration which is very hard to do when they're distracted themselves. With a single raised hand I start to super cool the air around Hannah. Should feel like icy sandpaper on her bare shoulders.

Hannah Greene (7/23/2006 1:47:04 AM) "We are lovers..." and that was all she would say about her relationship with John. She stepped back and she tilted her head. She could push both physical and mental and while he was immune to his own powers, he wasn't immune to what pain it might bring if issued by her mind. So she reflected it back on him. It wasn't real pain, but it felt it. And she only strengthened it. A shiver ran through her and she pulled at his emotions, trying to rip out his confidence and replace it with sheer weakness and fear. "This is a gift for him."

Bobby Drake™ (7/23/2006 1:56:13 AM) If the feeling of extreme cold isn't enough for Hannah to lose control of her powers it sure isn't going to keep Bobby from fighting back. "Good for him. Too bad for you." My confidence is fading, how's she beating me? Why can't I slow her down. What if she overloads my own pain receptors and cause me to pass out. Well if that's going to happen I'm taking her with me. I stop trying to get her with cold blasts and instead point at her feet and form a block of ice around her feet to make her immobile.

Hannah Greene (7/23/2006 2:01:07 AM) Hannah shivers, her feet encased in ice, but at least the cold stopped. Her shivering remains, but...she narrows her eyes and focuses. Draining rage, draining courage, draining confidence. Her hands grip on either side of her body into tight fists The pain is changing, into the most painful thing she had ever experienced. It was like fire dancing along the nerves, like and explosion of pain in the mind, she still had scars from it, beneath her full hair and on the soles of her feet. It hadn't been lightning, but it had been an electric shock, reaching for wires above her uncle's terrace, wanting to get higher as a child. It nearly killed her, and at times she wished it had. "I will stop...if you do."

Bobby Drake™ (7/23/2006 2:06:00 AM) I scream in pain as I feel like I've been electrocuted. Something like that will definitely be drawing some attention, I try to nod through the pain and if it starts to subside I'll cause the ice around her feet to sublimate back to gas.

Hannah Greene (7/23/2006 2:08:06 AM) Her expression turns grim as she watches him and shakes her feet off. The pain subsides until it's just a memory, like a dull ache. She took a couple steps back from him, she knew that would draw attention, so she had to leave, for good this time. It was a good thing she had everything packed. And everything that wasn't at the suite was in her car. "Have fun, boy scout." She turned to start down the hall, she would take a nice hot soak in that tub at the suite tonight.

Bobby Drake™ (7/23/2006 2:09:39 AM) "Wait a minute. You think you can just leave? You've got things to answer for." Following after her almost placing my hand on her shoulder but then it might just start up another stalemate.

Hannah Greene (7/23/2006 2:12:18 AM) Hannah turned and slapped his hand away from her shoulder, "I will hurt you again. Do not be delusional enough to think that I will not try that last pain again, only stronger. I can leave you conscious or unconscious, it is up to you." She hadn't let go of his emotional base, however, she had stopped tearing it away, but...she could rip them out from under him in a heartbeat. "Back down, I am leaving, for good. I have done nothing else, I just wanted to toy with you before I left. A sort of housewarming gift for John."

Bobby Drake™ (7/23/2006 2:22:29 AM) "This isn't over Ms Greene. Pain is temporary, frostbite is permanent. You or John get on my bad side again you'll know what that really feels like." I know she can make me feel emotions or physical sensations but I'm willing to bet I could freeze her solid before she could try anything but that might kill her and that's the difference between the X-men and the Brotherhood. We work for the greater good. "We'll also be informing SHIELD and Interpol about your shifts in allegiance. The life of a mutant terrorist is a lonely one. I hope you enjoy it." Cerebro has extensive scans on all mutants and should one ever go rogue we try to deal with them but sometimes you have to smoke them out by letting the authorities know.

Hannah Greene (7/23/2006 2:24:55 AM) "Right," Hannah smiled a pretty smile and she started her way toward the garage again. "Have fun following orders and being a pawn, Mr. Drake." She then picked up her pace toward the garage, where she'd get in her car and leave. Good riddance to this place. Lonely, she had more connection with one person in the brotherhood than she had with anyone here...save maybe Corrin.

Bobby Drake™ (7/23/2006 2:28:12 AM) ~Pawn? Says the girlfriend of the Brotherhood's biggest stuck-up. I need to tell Storm.~ This is going to be bad, its rough whenever a student leaves us for the Brotherhood since they know our security measures. Though the students aren't exactly privy to everything. Still we might need some extra precautions.
