Exodus
Exodus walked through the main lobby masking his, Magneto's and Sabretooth's appearance. The psionic trail he was feeding off of was still fresh and he loved it. Everysecond of it! It's what he was craving for too long. There was a ton of psionic energy coming from all over the place. Exodus was in paradise. He soaked up as much of it as he could as he lead them towards their rooms.
Once he entered his room on the fourth floor, he stood in the room with his eyes shut just enjoying the presense of other psionics. Taking his uniform off, he jumped into the shower for a quick cleansing then laid down on top of the bed as he air dryed. He didn't understand what the comfortors were so he laid on top of them, still wet. He slowly drifted into slumber as his body naturally soaked up as much of the psionic energy that it could.

Magneto paused by the door and knocked on it once before manipulating the lock and opening the door. He closed it behind him, and saw that Exodus was asleep on his bed. The man would awaken the moment he sensed someone in the room. He wasted no time in stating his purpose in disturbing his disciple.
"Bennett, I need you to make certain no one disturbs the lady in my room," he told him. "And if you sense anyone but myself or her in there, I wish you to deal with whomever is bothering her, then take her to Genosha for her safety. Her name is Magda and she has been informed she is being 'looked after'."
He paused, letting his orders sink in. "Charles Xavier and his X-Men are up in the penthouse, likely why you couldn't sense anything up there. Charles is clever and resourceful, and would have shielded himself from others with the same powers as he possesses," Erik continued. "It seems we have a common enemy and I am going to go offer him our aid against the bigot who attacked his school and is obviously a mutual threat. I will return and speak to you after my parlay with Xavier is over. Wish me luck."

Exodus was in a deep sleep. The psionic energy flowing through the hotel was enough to cure his hangover plus get him to a hundred percent. It was a beautiful feast that he enjoyed in his sleep. With Erik's entrance to his room, he snapped awake but he kept his eyes shut. He knew Magneto posed no threat to him. Erik had purpose and he quickly got to the point.
"Bennett, I need you to make certain no one disturbs the lady in my room and if you sense anyone but myself or her in there, I wish you to deal with whomever is bothering her, then take her to Genosha for her safety. Her name is Magda and she has been informed she is being 'looked after'," Erik ordered him. Exodus didn't mind personal missions, he actually preferred them. There was no reason why he shouldn't trust him with particular mission. Exodus stood up finally to face the man who had saved his life.
"Consider her well protected," he assured him. "Would you like me to stay in the room with her?" Exodus asked. He was proud of his abilities and knew he could protect her from his own room but Exodus enjoyed a good face to face fight now and then. It sounded like whoever this person was needed the protection from someone or someones.
"Charles Xavier and his X-Men are up in the penthouse, likely why you couldn't sense anything up there. Charles is clever and resourceful, and would have shielded himself from others with the same powers as he possesses. It seems we have a common enemy and I am going to go offer him our aid against the bigot who attacked his school and is obviously a mutual threat. I will return and speak to you after my parlay with Xavier is over. Wish me luck," Erik continued to explain. This Charles Xavier sounded like good mark to see if his own psionic powers could stand a chance against a man who can shut out Exodus' powers. Very few shields are capable of rendering his powers useless. A smile formed on his lips at the thought of having the chance against him. Unfortunately, that chance wasn't soon.
"Do not forget your helmet," Exodus suggested. Even though Magneto posessed a cunning intellect, against a powerful telepath, that was meaningless. Exodus could put up shields for him but they wouldn't hold in the penthouse which was still shielded from him. "I await your return, my lord."

"Consider her well protected." Exodus' reply was exactly what Magneto expected. Bennett was loyal and dedicated and what Magneto had asked of him was nothing beyond his abilities. "Would you like me to stay in the room with her?"
Erik considered the question for a moment. "That would be her decision," he told him with a shrug. "I informed her you might be appearing in the room. Feel free to ask her yourself. She should be finishing her dinner soon." He decided to with hold the remainder of her identity from Exodus for now. He didn't have time to fully explain who she was, wasn't even certain if it mattered after all these years. Perhaps, being from an older time, Bennett would understand why he felt he had to protect his wife, but for now, it was not the most important issue at hand.
After Magneto told him of his destination and his theories of why Exodus' power could not penetrate the into the penthouse, Bennett warned him to bring his helmet. Erik smile slightly and shook his head. "No, Exodus, I shall go without it," he replied. "Charles would never dare harm or manipulate me in such manner. I must show him trust for him to trust me. Besides, showing up in costume might lead them to the idea I had come here to fight the X-Men. I am in no danger from Charles Xavier, rest assured."
He knew his words were true. Charles would never attack him with his powers unless Erik gave him a reason and he would keep any of his X-Men in line who tried to start a battle with him. He and Xavier had a mutual respect of each other that neither of their disciples seemed to understand. He turned to leave.
"I await your return, my lord." Exodus said as he opened the door.
Magneto nodded to him. "Thank you Bennett," he said with a nod. "It is good to have someone I can rely on at all times." With that, he left the room, his destination the top floor of the building.

Exodus had trust in Magneto. If he says that Charles Xavier won't manipulate him then he won't but just in case, when Erik came back down to tell him of their discussion, Exodus was going to make sure that their was no psionic tampering of his mind. Then he would go up to see this Charles Xavier himself.
As Magneto left his room, Exodus made put his uniform was back on, after realising that he stood naked in front of Erik. It didn't matter to him, though. His body was of unimportance, his ability and loyalty is what matters. His loyalty will never fail his master and he had confidence in his ability to not fail, either.
Exodus left his room to head straight for Magneto's room. It would be easier to guard this person if he was in there with her. His teleportation abilities still needed work and he didn't want to chance it on this personal mission.

Exodus walked into his rented room and sat comfortably on the bed. There was no need for sleep. There was nothing else that can be done tonight so he continued his meditation. The mission was coming close and Exodus hoped that the Brotherhood can function well together to carry out the mission successfully. If all else failed, Exodus would just have to incinerate whoever stood in the way of progressing through the mission. And the first two in line for extermination was Black Tom and Theresa's friend, Alex.

Exodus stayed in mediation throughout the night and focused on the surroundings of the Brotherhood's rented rooms. The team seamed to be doing well, especially Theresa and her toy. There was nothing new going on which had Exodus uncomfortable. The quiet was disturbing. For some reason, it just didn't sit well with him. Theresa took her toy downstairs and Exodus still kept tabs on her surroundings. For some reason, he felt the need to protect the brotherhood in case something happened. He felt it was his responsibility to be their guardians. For any reason, Exodus would be right by the brotherhood's side if or when the time comes. The brotherhood was a project of Magneto's, his lord and savior. For Magneto, he would do whatever was necessary for his dream to become a reality. For now, Exodus had to wait and stay in mediation. When Lord Magneto needed him, Exodus would be right there for the current mission.

Exodus watched carefully in his meditated state over all of the Brotherhood. There wasn’t much going on except for Theresa’s breakfast company. The other red head involved was the source of a lot of psionic energy in the building and it was intriguing. Almost breathtaking if Exodus would allow himself to feel that way. Instead, he just listened in on their conversation. Theresa’s friend Alex was not a happy man and that pleased Exodus. He didn’t deserve the happiness. The two other people present were unknown to him. Both mutants but still a mystery. That would have to be remedied. The red head, especially. Her vast psionic power was enough to enthrall even Exodus. That was not an easy feat to accomplish. Something had to be done. Exodus wanted that power to feed off of. He craved it. Now wasn’t the time though. They were leaving the restaurant and they entered the penthouse where he couldn’t sense. Meeting the red head will have to wait.

Exodus sensed Theresa exit the penthouse. The woman had another presence inside of her head, however. This was definitely discomforting. The red head Irish woman made her way down to the brotherhood’s floor.
“Tom, where are ya?” Theresa called out. That was enough to make Exodus break his meditation. Something had to be done about the extra activity inside Theresa’s head. Exodus was going to have to operate and steal that psionic energy for himself.
