Sean grinned at the room filled up. He hit the play button on the remote, and settled back. This would be a fun way to kill time, at least til Elisabeth was ready to go skating. One of his favorite movies, some pleasant company and popcorn. Life was good.

<There is a situation that needs to be discussed regarding Washington. Meet in the War Room immediately.>
Sean heard Elisabeth's voice in his head for the third time that day. There was a slight edge to it, very different from the other times. He wondered what was going on in Washington. He looked around at the others ruefully, and passed the remote to Riva. He got up from the couch,
"Life around here is never dull, then, is it?" He said with a grin, as he left the room.

Jolted awake again by the telepathic assault (when just falling asleep, even the tiniest thing feels like an assault), he jumped up. ealizing that he had overreacted, he grabbed his coffee mug and looked inside. Empty. What luck. Groaning, he looked at Sean and shook his head. "Non... not at all."

Kitty sighed. "Well Riva looks like you get full control of the TV." She smiled and got up. "Hopefully this won't take to long though." She quickly left the room walking straight through the wall

Riva leaned back in her chair and sighed. All the X-Men were being called out that was obvious. She wondered what for, but soon got caught back up in the movie.

She walked in, noticing that the room was almost completely deserted. Glancing at the television, she was tempted to warn Riva about Remy's terrible Gollum imitation, but decided against it. With things being the way they were, he'd probably accuse her of trying to turn the students against him. Instead, she sat down in one of the chairs and sighed. Maybe watching the movie would get her mind off of things.

Riva waved as Rogue walked in, then decided that maybe she would leave her be. Rogue didn't exactly look happy, maybe stressed, or ticked off? She thought about asking her about it then decided that if she wanted it to be shared she would tell her.

Kes soon found herself quite alone. After everyone had scurried off to the War Room then to the X-Jet she had only the gentle hum of computers and the rhythmic bleeping of machines to keep her company. Allowing her ESP to roam freely her attention was brought to the floor below her. Looking straight through the ground she found a large room where an unfamiliar woman seemed to be fighting something Kes couldn’t see.
Suddenly feeling very self conscious she quickly got changed into her regular black attire and gently removed the drip from her arm. She knew she would have to risk being around people sooner or later. She had to learn to distinguish between the future echo and the present person. From what she could sense at the moment there seemed to be fewer people around on the ground floor of the mansion.
Taking a deep breath she pressed the call button on the elevator and stepped inside. Rising through the ground was a strange sensation. She was able to see all of the pipes and cables around her as well as those in the buried in the ground. Fossil hunting would be a very easy thing for Kes to do. She was aware of the main building quite a way before the elevator actually stopped.
Tentatively she stepped out from the doors and prepared herself for her first encounter with many future echoes all at once.

It didn't work. The problem with movies is that they don't need your full attention in order for them to go on. If the movie had stopped ever yimt her mind strayed back to either Remy or Joseph, she would have noticed and gotten right back on the ball. But no. Movies had to just keep going on and on and her mind just had to keep straying from the point. The Hobbitses are trying to get to Mordor. The Hobbitses aretrying to get to Mordor. The... "Oh, f**k it."
She sat up abruptly, remembering that there were students nearby. So much for setting a good example."Uh.. You didn't hear that."

((Sorry it took so long in comming.))
Kes quietly entered the Rec. Room to find Rouge and Riva sitting on the couch watching something on the TV. There was a lot of shouting and clashing of metal so she could only guess it was a medieval battle film of some sort. She didn’t watch TV purely for the fact that she couldn’t see what was on the screen.
She stood behind them and let her ESP roam for a while. Ash was in the kitchen and the same man she had seen in the med lab was asleep in his room above her. Suddenly something, or more precisely someone caught her attention outside. Her black eyes swivelled over to the window as she pushed her senses further.
“There’s someone watching us out there.”

Craning her head to see the girl better, her face hardened. "There's what?"
She stood up and made her way to the window, looking around. It looked all clear. No one that she could see. Then again, Kes didn't see things the way that most people did. There was a good chance that she was telling the truth. If someone actually was out there, they sure as hell had picked the wrong time to threaten the safety of anyone that she cared about. "Can you tell who it is? And where are they?"

Riva had been to engrossed in the movie to hear Rogue. "Huh?" She looked at her then turned her attention back to the movie. It was getting good too. "There’s someone watching us out there" Riva paused the movie and craned her neck as Rogue got up. "Can you tell who it is? And where are they?" Riva got up as Rogue obviously believed there was something to worry about. She walked over and stood behind Rogue and Kesker.
There was nothing outside, nothing to worry about. Yet Rogue acted as if she trusted what Kesker said so Riva worried a little. What it could be, what it could do to the mansion, all of this worried her slightly, but in that reading a book fantasy kind of way.

She was aware of Rouge and Riva standing behind her before they did. It was an odd sensation.
“Over there, in the trees.”
She pointed in the general direction. She definitely knew there was someone there, but couldn’t quite make out who it was exactly.
“Give me a moment.”
Grasping onto the window ledge she closed her eyes and let her ESP work its way around the grounds. She focused on the person in the tree and directed all of her energy towards them, but they were still fuzzy.
“It’s sitting down. Crossed Legged. It’s wearing a body suit of some sort. White I think.”
She pushed harder and the image became clearer.
“They have a rucksack of some sort. I can’t see what’s in it. They don’t have any shoes on.”
Normally using her abilities like this would begin to cause her pain by now, but she felt nothing of the sort. If anything she felt like she could push it further, but without Hank around she didn’t want to try.
“They’re…they’re watching the school I think. There’s a sheet above them. Looks like they’re here for the long haul.”
She paused for a while then opened her eyes..
“It’s a woman.”
