Tattoo's mind broke from the visions that had been thrust into his head and he exhaled slightly, looking to Apex, "These are the enemy that you and your companion here have faced?"**In the Med Bay**
Amelia nodded slightly and smiled, "Ana, that's a cool name...if you don't mind me asking; what bought you here?"
"No..." Apex said simply, turning around he faced Tattoo, his voice deep and grim. "This is the enemy...that they created."
Tattoo's features became grim for the first time in weeks. The thought of something like this ravaging the grounds of the Mansion and preying upon the students sent a shiver down his spine, "This is troubling indeed." He replied tersely.
**The lift**
Logan nodded and as the four of them travelled to the surface, he nodded to Amelia who inclined her head slightly. Once the doors opened he and Amelia moved out into the lower halls, Sparkie turning her attention to Ana, "Follow us hun, we'll show you around."
Ana could feel the tension, she wasn't psychic and her senses were normal but it was that thick in the air that you could've almost cut it with a knife.
"I just need to lie down for a bit, is there somewhere I could stay just for now?" her mocked sincerety was enough to fool anyone save for psychics.
She had to admit, the room they gave her was quite respectable, though she knew that this place had to go, Ana had to get the hell out of there before they realize she's a threat, class five mutants were the primary targets amoung humans and mutants alive. As she was religious, she respected all life and using her powers in such circumstances almost guaraneed casualties.
Meanwhile, Jacenta could smell the air of nervousness, they had left her unattended as they dealt with the new threat in their own way, leaving another threat loose in the mansion... She followed the scent of the newcomer, keeping low and her thoughts simple to avoid detection.
Amelia turned once Ana was settled in her room, sighing a little and walking down the hall where Logan was waiting near one of the doors. She smiled a little as they walked silently toward the staircase, whereupon Sparkie paused her eyes fixed on a figure at the bottom of the stairs, "Jacenta...how did you get out?" She asked the mutant steadily at the bottom of the stairs. Logan's eye trained on the young woman also.
"So what is this thing I am seeing here Apex ?"* The Professor couldn't believe the horro he was seeing.He was very shocked and needed some explanation's about this thing.Whatever it or who is.!"*
*Storm was to caught up in her own problems was paying no attention tried to get in the conversation trying not to seem rude,"What is it?"
"That thing..." Apex said, turning to the face the professor, "Is the vangaurd to a legion of destruction, and a harbringer of our destruction." His eyes started to swirl slightly, and he seemed alarmed slightly.
At his side, Predator's arms were shaking with exertion and strain. The adamantual bonds that surrounded his wrists suddenly exploded, two main halfs flying in either direction as he swung his arms out to the side, chest puffing out as the muscles tensed and strechted while he broke free of the restraints. The chunks of metal bounced off the walls as Predator walked up beside Jason, to look at Storm, the Professor, and the other X-men. "And only you have a hope in heaven, hell, or earth on stopping them."
Before she could scream, Jacenta pounced the full length of the staircase and battered Amelia aside, unconcious against the wall with a single brutal swipe. Like an animal, her attentions fell upon Logan, she reared up and pounced with the full force that cleared the stairs, knocking him down and continuing through the hallway before he could extend his claws.
The tension she felt earlier was nothing compared to what it was now, something was happening, something was coming for her, it was more or less instinct...
Ana needed her old armor, sadly that was destroyed two years prior, she needed another... The loose furnishings and the bed itself was ladened heavily with rich material; she focussed herself and unleashed the brutality of her power, molecule by molecule, the room was torn apart and formed into a solid suit of extremely-light armored plates... the aftermath appeared as if an explosive had been set off, nothing was left save for her and the walls.
Ana knew that staying in this room left her vunerable, extending her palm it blew out with the force of a cannon, lodging itself in the wall opposite. A few residents in the hall took one glance at the shadowed form, thanks to the fearsome-looking armor upon her small frame, they screamed and fled. She decided to use that to her advantage, her power concetrated minimally upon the armor to decrease the weight, she ran down the corridoor, not really knowing where she was going...
Apex looked at Predator, "Stay here." He said, "Don't hurt anyone." He looked down at the floor, and arched an eyebrow, "Your guest is panicking. We need to calm her." The screws in the boards all spun out, fast enough to cause some smoke, and the boards lifted off the floor in a few short seconds. He systematically, and efficientely, took a section of the floor apart without destroying any of it, and floated down through the floor, right in front of Ana.
He stopped, floating halfway between the roof, which had just repaired, and the floor, and gazed at the girl. "You need to calm down." He said, his voice now serene and soothing. "Destruction here will accomplish nothing of value. Please, I am not a member of the X-men myself, but they are not the ones who wish to harm you. I believe I may know who it is, and I know that we all plan to try and stop them." He formed an invisible shield of psychic energy around himself, and a psychic rift, also invisible, started to expand outwards, to protect him and everything around him from being destroyed.
((I cant find your character sheet for Ana...))

Known Relatives: Michael Durrin, Surrogate father, location unknown.
Powers: The ability to manipulate matter on the atomic scale, anything up to the density of titanium Ana can tear atoms away to form into other elements and other substances.
Her control over matter is similar to the way the great Eric Lensher commands metals, though Ana's ability is ebbed away only by reforming matter, she is not diminished physically when moving already formed or unchanged matter.
Personality: Light-heartedly passionate in her own opinion, Ana prides herself in rigorous study of anything she finds even remotely interesting, from quantum physics to the daily life of the armadillo, even resorting to pop-up books.
She strives to be a part of the group in any occasion though is easily insulted by others, adding to her occasional clumsiness and her two left feet.
History: Anything that she doesn't talk about is known only to her, meaning that she alone knows her history...
Player Name: Aliies
((She's actually two years older now... originally I meant to write it as a government file, saying: Warning; Class Five Mutant, capture impossible, Lethal force authorized upon contact...))
Being in touch with everything around her, she could feel the change in the molecules of the air, this man eminated an invisible force that seemed to be holding everything together in the feeble attempt at stopping her...
"And by what account do you think yourself able to stad in my path, I don't want to hurt anyone, I just want to leave, and if anything and anyone STANDS IN MY WAY..." every muscle in her body flexed, the walls around her followed suit and cracks formed along the newly refirbished wallpaper, Ana extended her hand clenched in a fist, as she opened it, the psychic force broke like tissue paper and the hallway expanded and the framework shattered, Apex was hit with the force of a cyclone...
"I would estimate you as a class four, you're far out of your league..." she mocked, though it was visible that she had just barely held control after such a display of her ability, she practiced so hard yet her full power was still too dangerous.
"I beg to differ." Apex' eyes lit up with a white light as he amplified his powers. "You may not understand this..." He said, as most every particle in the area stopped moving, causing the air to become thick. "But X-con manipulated me and my powers. Increased my intelligence, mental ability." He floated toward her slighty. "I can use my telekensis to move particles similar to your own power." He held out a hand, and the air formed into an axe, then reformed into a sphere, then a toy car. The shapes dissipated. "I would suggest we stop this conflict, before we cause some catastrophic."
"Get away, get away... GET AWAY!!!" it was too late, she didn't care about anything, her power grew out of control and the mansion began to moan under the stress.
Falling to her knees, Alchemy's power was revealed; the walls expanded and cracked, the floorboards exploded, the top-floor ceiling was ripped off and reduced to sawdust... the entire mansion shook with the full force of an untamed class-five, the east wing began to fall apart as if hit by an F5 tornado, Ana's eyes were inked black as her power revealed itself.
What was left of the area around Alchemy, the wooden framework and the floor's remains began to compact and formed into crude materials uncontrolably; at the epicenter of the entire event, Ana was screaming like a tortured child... "make it stop..." she cried again and again...
She's pretty dangerous... even to herself, you can see why she's so unwilling to communicate with anyone, even other mutants.
"Professor!"Jean felt the Phoenix clawing at her,with in any moment she could turn.Jean fell to her knees,when she got up her eyes where lost.She slowly flew toward the power source without an words she lifted Ana up and was about to toss her as far as her power would let her~which is an very long ways~
Apex looked around. He'd retracted his own powers to form a shield around those near him, so that a smaller chunk of the mansion remained unharmed as he literally fought over individual particles to control them. He saw Jean, and floated up toward her. "Sorry." He said, "You can help me here." He reached out and touched her forward, and added her own psychic power to his.
Everything stopped, starting from his location, and it expanded outward. Like a huge sphere, as chaos was frozen, as if in both place and time. He could sense each object, each particle, and had wrestled them under control. Apex was not untamed here, his radically enhanced mind knew exactly what he was doing. "You have left me little choice." He said, then looked down at Ana. He sent an illusion into her mind, fooling her senses, then sent a psychic scream. A scream powerful enough could literally destroy someones mind, this one only served to mess her up enough that she'd lose all coherence, down to a level on instinct, to weaken her powers.
Around him, thinks started to repair themselves, and he floated down toward Ana. Masking his presence with his powers, so that not only her senses would be decieved, but she would still sense his atomic being where it was before, floating beside Jean. He reached out, and placed three finger tips onto her cheek, and filled her with an essence of calm and kindness. "Relax..." He said. "I can make it stop, but you have to help me fix this. I can fight you for the control of the particles, so you'll do no more damage without straining yourself, but I cannot change matter you've altered back. Help me help these people. Then I can help you, learn to control your powers, and learn to deal with yourself. You don't need to be alone." He opened her eyes, and amplified her sense of sight with his powers, letting her access parts of her mind that she could not before, he looked her in the eyes, his own showing nothing but warmth and serenity. "You can trust me. I know what it's like."
