ooc| Sorry, I posted with original character! D:--------- "Kitty? What are you doing here? I thought the students were sent home?"At Scott's words, Kitty Pryde nodded knowingly. She opened her mouth to speak, until Scott continued, assessing the current issue. Turning to Catwoman, Kitty grabbed her own hands behind her back and rocked back and forth from her heels to her toes, only to relax when Scott made the comment about the school-- as if he were giving her permission to let go the rude comment the thief made. And once Scott smiled to his downcast teammates, Shadowcat smiled wide. She could breathe again. Relief rushed over her. However, she was oblivious to the pseudo-smile Cyclops pulled. "That's good to hear! I was beginning to worry about you guys!" Kitty said with a prideful sheen in her eyes. "Oh, and yeah, the students were sent home," She began, lifting her index finger as she continued to explain. "But I'm more than a student!" Of course, Kitty was speaking about the fact that she was an X-Man herself. Grinning wide, she gestured her arms in a circle. "Right, right?" Her eyes went from Scott to Piotr, waiting for a positive response.

Catwoman rolled her eyes when Kitty put her name and ears together got the whole thing "And they say the school systems are failing." She repiled. "We means me and Isis." she said pointing to the cat that was a cross her shoulders and wondered how long it would take the girl to get that.
"Better keep your eyes to yourself handsom this cat has claws and she's not afrad to use them." She said holding up a hand she extended her claws and did a come here with her finger to Scott with a smirk on her face. "Why don't you send the kids to there rooms so the grown ups can play?" She said.

"Hey there missy Pryde. Good to see ya." Cain said as he waved at Shadowcat. He knew of the young girl's membership in the x-men and even a few rumors of her and Colossus in something of a relationship. Pete had never talked to him about it but Cain sensed there was something there.
He turned to face the other cat in the room. The one that was giving Scott the come hither look. "As for you." He marched toward her slowly and stopped about a foot from her. "You would be wise in explaining what you are doing here." He cracked his knuckles on both hands.

Kitty Pryde smiled and nodded to Cain at his greeting. "Hiya!" She said happily with a small wave. Once the unusual woman spoke again, Shadowcat frowned. She opened her mouth to state how she was being sarcastic, but obviously enough, Kitty wasn't too good at sarcasm if Catwoman did not pick it up.
When the Juggernaut began to speak with the woman, Kitty pressed her lips together in holding back a smile. Shadowcat is not too threatening, but Cain truly was. Her hazel eyes darted from Catwoman to the Juggernaut, waiting for someone to move. Hey, she could learn something from this.

"Of course you're more than just a student" , Cyclops said as he crossed his arms and smiled back at the young X-Men member. He gave a quixk nod to Colossus and Juggernaut before turning back to the strange woman.
"It's pretty clear what she's doing here", Cyclops said as he motioned towards the loot that littered the floor.
The woman was, of course, vert beautiful. But Scott had to be a strong steadfast leader now. Charles was dead. And he would soon have to tell this to Kitty.

Catwoman rolled her eyes at Juggernaut "Maybe if you weren't so tall you could hear me." She said hated having to repeat herself she then shot Kitty a nasty look. Before turning back to look at Scott and shrugged "A girl's gotta eat ya know and not all you hero's like my kind." She said placing her hands on her hips but was still ready for anything the large man in front of her might do to her.

"Some you come to steal from people who have defended your right to do whatever the hell you want." Cain shook his head. "You must be quite a catch." He turned to face Scott. "I didn't live here but this chick has invaded your and others space. Its up to you what punishment she gets. I'm done."
Cain brushed past Colossus and Kitty. He stepped carefully through the front door of the school and emerged into the open air. There was a time to act and a time to think. Over the years he had painfully learned the difference and now was the time to think, carefully.

Colossus felt torn between waiting for Cyclops to escort the thieving woman out and doing it himself. It was not his place, no, but he felt a surge of anger bubbling inside of him at the thought of any one person sinking so low as to blemish the untarnished image that Charles Xavier, rest his soul, had strived for years on end to perfect.
“Stealing is among the most dishonorable of petty acts,” he murmured, not caring if the strange woman could hear him or not.
Cain, it seemed, had extracted himself from the situation by slipping outside of the front door from whence he came. Piotr hoped, though perhaps in vain, that Scott would do something to ensure that the thieving woman learned her lesson, though he was not quite sure what sort of punishment would suffice. Slowly uncrossing his arms, he glanced first at Scott and then over at Kitty.
“I will talk to Cain. I think that it would be best if we were to all stay together in this troubling time, da.” Nodding his head curtly, he slipped outside quietly, immediately catching sight of Cain. The fresh air did him a great deal of good, and after only a few deep breaths, he felt refreshed, rejuvenated. “I know that you and the Profess- Charles were not extremely close, but I am still sorry for your loss, comrade.”

"Thanks Pete." Cain said with his head down, staring at the large water fountain in the center of the campus. "You're a good 'ol boy to have around." Slowly he raised his head up and took a deep breath. The sun was just beginning to set on the horizon and several very lovely hues were turning the sky a beautiful color of red.
"Charles would want us to all be together wouldn't he? I mean, this just seem like such a mess. Worse than when we saw Rictor and Avalanche take down Red Square in Moscow." He shook his head. "First things first. We need to make funeral arrangements."

Piotr could vividly remember the situation that Cain mentioned, and frowned in memory. The memory alone was enough to have him clenching his hands at his sides both in anger and discomfort. So many innocent lives had been lost. They hadn’t been able to save nearly enough from the maniacal duo.
“Da, funeral arrangements should be made as soon as possible,” he agreed with Cain readily. “If anything, perhaps a memorial service.” After all, Scott hadn’t mentioned how long ago the tragedy had happened, or even if there had already been a funeral. If anything, Piotr wanted to at least make sure that Charles Xavier had the proper send off, if at all possible. “He was one of the most respected men in the world, regardless of the fact that he was a mutant. It is only fair that everyone has a chance to give the man a proper goodbye.”
Still, it didn’t seem fair to even think about the Professor being gone. The man was one of the first and the few that had come into Piotr’s life offering him a chance. It was Charles that took Piotr away from his life as a farmer in Russia and offered him the chance at an American dream. Of course, it hadn’t all been bells and whistles, as Colossus had immediately joined the X-Men. But, he was proud of the fact that he had served on Charles Xavier’s X-Men.
“We will have to ask Scott if he has heard from the rest of the team,” he murmured, almost to himself. Half-glancing back over his shoulder, he briefly wondered if he should go back inside to be there when Scott told Kitty the bad news. The thought of her reaction to the news had his stomach clenching tightly in knots. “It is going to be hard for everyone to hear, I think.” Piotr slowly let his gaze wander back to Cain as he considered all of the possible angles. “Do you think it would be best to have a service here, where the Professor built his dream?”

"Charles wouldn't want us to focus on just his passing. He would want to honor all those that have died in and around this conflict." Cain paused and looked back to the mansion. "There needs to be a massive memorial service Pete. One for the ages. Both sides of the war lost superheroes and this could be a good step in the healin' process."
He put a hand on his friends shoulder. "Its got to be neutral ground. Somewhere that had no part in this god-awful mess. Lets go back in. Maybe Scott has pulled it together enough to deal with that Cat-woman."

After the Juggernaut spoke a few last words before his leave, Kitty Pryde found anything she would say at this moment caught in her throat. Something was bothering Cain badly-- so horrendously that he didn't want to bother with the woman stealing goods from the place. She wanted to say that she agreed, but stayed silent. It felt like everyone's relationships prior to the war had run dry, much like Shadowcat's lips. She bit onto them as Cain walked down the hall and out the doorway.
“... I think that it would be best if we were to all stay together in this troubling time..."
Kitty nodded profusely to the man beside her. He seemed down, if not terribly traumatized by something as well. Worry welded into her mind-- Was Peter alright? Was there anything she could do to make him feel better? Something really, really horrible must have happened during the war. Shadowcat suddenly became overwhelmed with concern. We DO need to stay together! She exclaimed in her mind. If we don't, then... Her bright hazel eyes turned to see the back of Piotr as he exited the building. She sighed and turned to look at the slightly mesmerized Scott then to Catwoman, who she stared at with stern eyes.
"They aren't even bothering with you." Kitty remarked to the woman in tight leather. It sounded almost as if she were confirming that to herself rather than announcing that to Cyclops and Catwoman. She found herself clenching her fists somewhat, but she relaxed them before speaking to her again. "Why would you steal from this 'dump', anyway?" She asked curiously, using what Catwoman had said about the school previously.

Emma drove up to the school she to had just returned from the war and still dressed in the Untouchables uniform normally she would have stopped and bought something and changed but tiredness won out over fashion.
She had a lot more put on her plate after Xavier and Jean had been killed not that she couldn't handle it but it meant she had less time for other things like sleep among other things but she had managed. And now she just wanted to take a two hour bath and sleep till next year.
Getting out of her car and taking her bags with her she headed inside where she was greeted by Katherine, Scott and some leather clad woman with a cat laying a cross her shoulders. Placing her bags on the ground she looked at the three with a raised brow "Did I miss something?" She asked.

Shadowcat turned to the woman who spoke, only to see the Ms. Emma Frost, in the flesh. This was the woman who had introduced her to using her mutant powers. Kitty felt taken aback; she stood in silence, soaking up the White Queen's pure presence. After a brief moment of flashback and reminiscing, she spoke: "I guess, if you consider an amateur robbery something." Kitty said in an annoyed tone, looking up at Emma. This 'Catwoman' was staying way past her welcome. She should have just got out of there already. Kitty crossed her arms and took in a deep sigh. As she exhaled, she addressed Emma again. "So how have you been?" The girl asked curiously, attempting to start a civil conversation.

"There's nothing amateur about her Katherine, she's a wanted cat burglar from Gotham City." Emma replied as she walked over to where the group was. "Obviously she's toying with you just buying her time until she gets away with the things she's stolen." She said looking down at the floor and noticing the jewelry on the floor belonged to her "At lest she has good tease." Emma said looking back up.
"Tired, I didn't realized it took so much work to have
Charles and Jean's bodies shipped back here." Emma said having been the larder of battalion five and one of the only X-Men who lived threw the attack it was her job to make sure there bodies got back here.
