Escorting Sam and Mirk to their Rooms.
It was only about five minutes walk, but for Anna it seemed to take forever to get to the boys dorms, and she still had to show Sam her new room..
"Alright, this is your room, by tomorrow it'll have your name on the door." She still spoke as if all this annoyed her, standing next to the door and waiting for him to open it with his key.
"If you're alright on your on, I'll take her to her room now, feel free to wonder the school and 'explore'.." Frost added as she waited to see if he was fine with being left alone, and for his sake Frost bitterly thought that he better be alright on his own.. she wasn't up to babysitting..
Anna seemed like she was in a bad mood, but she also seemed like she was like that most of the time so Sam ignored it. She put her bag on the floor while the girl was talking to the fish-kid, she thought his name was Mirk but she hadn't been paying attention...
Rummaging around some more produced what she had been looking for, her snack pouch, she looked through it and picked out a treat, the scare of not having Sarah with her had thrown her stomachs all out of balance and she needed something to eat. She stood up and shouldered her pack once again chewing on some double A batteries, and scratching Sarah behind the ears.
(ooc- *Eye twitches as she stares at Sam's title* Gold on black! *Slaps* Work you! *Slaps again* ...*Looks around shiftily* Alright.. *ahem* I just wanted to ask you, I do character siggies for a lot of people over the board, if you ever want me to mak one for you, feel free to drop a note in General Discussion or Requests, give a name of a person or a few links to pictures you'd like to use for your character (I can do shading in Adobe to make the hair match Sam's) and I'll make one for ya.. thought I'd offer since I got both you guys in this one thread... *Points to Piotr* Offer goes for you to!)
The only hint that Frost found what she was watching Sam chew on was a rather blank slow blink.. but then she dropped her eyes to the ground as waited for Mirk to give his ok so they could leave. But after a moment she glanced back up at Sam, for once not being rude or snappish but actually offering a rather iportant suggestion that'd most likely get her into Storm's good graces.. not that Frost really cared.. it made not difference to her, she was just bored and it was something to talk about.
"You might want to find Storm, our team leader, she'll probably in her office or something, when you're settled in it'd be best to go straight to her, she likes to know right away who's on her team... she likes to chit-chat." At the words 'chit-chat' her voice had grown rather dull and annoyed, as if Storm had a habit of chatting a lot, but really.. Frost liked Storm, she never let anyone push hre around, and she liked that her leader was strong in that sense.. but she was also a powerful mutant.

Mirk walked to the brown wooden door and slid the silver key into the hole, turning the knob and pushing to open it. He looked around the room at the nice dressers and the large bed. The windows looked over the large, green garden and the basketball court.
"Wow...are all of the dorms this nice?" he said. The only thing that he had seen, in his whole life, that was this nice was the foyer of the mansion.
He dropped his bag on the floor, making a *thud* sound. He looked into the closet, hoping to see clothes that he had heard about from Angela. Sure enough, there were some loose-fit pairs of silk Nike pants and some t-shirts. Very comfortable, probably.
(ooc-Don't be surprised if oday is the only day that I'll be on for a while....my computer decided to be nice but who knows if it will screw up on me again...)
(Oh...and Frost....I might take you up on that sig offer! Ive been trying to make one of Mirk for a while but havent been able to find any fish-boy pics!)
Re: Escorting Sam and Mirk to their Rooms."All rooms are similar.. except Couple dorms and the Teachers rooms, they have their own bathrooms, you lot will have to use the student shows down the hall." Pushing herself away from the wall, Frost began taking steps away fom his room, glancing back at Sam to make sure the girl is following her.
"Anyway, next stop, girls dorms." Turning her back to the girl as she lead the way, heading down a few corridors before arriving into the girls section. Once she made it to the special area set aside for pet owners, she folded her arms and patiently waited for Sam to unlock the door.
"Here it is." She stated rather unneeded, though she had turned her attention down the hall as if expecting someone to suddenly appear that she might find interesting.
(Piotr, I did have some troubles finding pics, and the only ones I did find where cartoony, so here's ya siggy, I hope it's ok.. if ya don't like it, you don't have to use it Also..*Points to his title* I put a piccy in your title as well, again, if you don't like it, I will remove it )
Re: Escorting Sam and Mirk to their Rooms.
Sam walked beside Anna all the way to her room in silence. When she reached the door she was still as quiet. Finally she asked, "Anna, who is this Storm woman and what exactly is the Gold Strike Team?" She gave her a curious look, her nose bunched up like she was about to sneeze. She didn't really care about the answer, she had something else she wanted to ask.
Re: Escorting Sam and Mirk to their Rooms.
It felt strange having someone call her Anna, normally people enjoyed calling her Frost, but she quickly pushed aside that thought and focused on what the girl had asked.
"Storm's a teacher her, she's a mutant with the power to control the weather.. you know.. make storms and things." She gave a slight shrug, thinking over a way to properly explained these teams as she went rather quiet for a moment.
"Basically teams are like.. well.. we help.. people. Storm trains us, if there's trouble, Xavier might send us off to lend a hand, teaches us to control our powers better.. Xavier and the teachers here are all for team spirit as well." She was sure that really didn't help properly explaine a team to Sam, but that's what teachers where for.. explaining things, she could just ask Storm if she wanted a better definition. After a moment, Anna folded her arms as she studied the girls face, she had this look about her that made Frost assume there where more questions she had on her mind.
Re: Escorting Sam and Mirk to their Rooms.
Sam nodded without really hearing what she had said. "DId you know my mother, or do you think that Storm would? Her name was Tabitha Smith but I think she was called Meltdown..." Sam scratched Sarah absently as the cat tried to comfort her distress. "Mother was killed or taken three years ogo, I don't know which, I haven't found her yet but when last I saw her she was still visiting this place regularly though she claimed to be retired." Sam twitched the hem of her shirt trying not to jump up and down, she had to know...
Re: Escorting Sam and Mirk to their Rooms.
Frost - who didn't handle personal questions very well - grew slightly uncomfortable as she glanced down the hall once again, almost seeing if she willed some to appear there they just might suddenly appear.
"Uh.. Meltdown.." She repeated slowly as she looked back, but stared hard down at the ground as if she was reading information off the floor. That name was familiar, and when she tried to think really picture the face she was sure she could remember that person, Frost blinked, her white gloved fingers stroking her white fringe aside and behind her ear.
"I've heard of her.. she worked with my uncle.. that might be something you'd want to take up with Storm, she might remember where she went.. but I don't think she was killed.." Anna trailed off quickly, not wanting to say anything further incase she was wrong, she looked nervously back the way they had come, she hated getting involved in peoples personal lives.. she's never done it before but she was sure it could only lead to trouble..
"So.. how do you like your room?" She asked quickly, wanting to change the subject as fast as possible, why did she always get such terrible assignments, first she had to babysit a vampire who was insane, and now she had to discuss family issues with a stranger..
Re: Escorting Sam and Mirk to their Rooms.
Mirk, still back in his room, changed into the new clothes after shutting the door when Frost and Sam had left. He was somewhat glad that they were gone, he didn't really likebeing around people who he didn't know that well. He enjoyed his friends more, but, how could never make friends without meeting new people?
He was now wearing the silk pants that fit loosely on his now skin covered leg. He had managed to transform back into his regular form, though it had taken effort.
He had only been in the room for about 10 minutes, and it was already a mess. His old, filth covered clothes were scattered on the floor and his bag had spilled all over the bed, revealing some paper, a wallet, and a gold pocket watch that he had found at the bottom of a river that amazingly still worked.
Being quickly bored by the empty room he decided to take Anna's adivice-he would leave the room and start exploring the large mansion.
Re: Escorting Sam and Mirk to their Rooms."It's okay... You can go now, I need to get my things in order..." Sam frowned down at the floor and quietly closed her door on Anna.
She turned to the bed in the near empty room, the thought of laying down and sleeping forever had a nice ring to it but Sam wanted to explore. Maybe she would change first...
With a displeased growl, Frost turned and left, the nerve of the newbie closing the door in HER face.. hurrying down the hall, Frost bitterly hoped that no more pests bothered her today, she had other more important things to do!
She glanced back down the hall before disappearing down the stairs and making her way towards where most of the X-Men's kids hang out when they want information .. the teachers lounge.
TBC: (No where right now - she'll pop up later somewhere..)
Also..*Points to his title* I put a piccy in your title as well, again, if you don't like it, I will remove it
