Black fingernails drummed gently on the arm of a chair seated in the middle of a pitch black room, the only light coming from a large computer in the middle of the room. The hand, its digits long and slender, lifted itself from the arm of the chair, folding elegantly with it's partner in the owner's lap. A soft, cold chuckle was emitted from between pale lips drawn back into a sneer as he surveyed the screen with one red eye and one milky grey one.
"Hnn Hnn Hnn." The voice was male. The bluish light from the screen fell across his face, causing it to look deathly pale. Long, black hair fell into his face, the tips a soft maroon shade. The hair fell about his chin, shifting as he turned in the chair.
His name was Deception, aged nineteen. His slim, tall body was dressed in a black bodysuit, a red diamond emblazed on the left breast. He tapped his booted foot on the ground before he stood, making his way into the darkness, leaving the circle of light the computer provided. The screen was larged, a few pictures placed on it with information below. Most were of men, names below the pictures; 'Ravage', 'Rumble', 'Pain'. Others were of women; 'Ivy', 'Jasmine', 'Diamond', 'X-T' and, finally, 'Amelia'...

Back at Xavier Institute for Gifted Youngsters...
X-T sat in the dinning room, her tongue sticking out the corner of her mouth, as she worked on a device sitting in front of her. Sweat formed on top of her forhead as she hanked cords and made sure everything was as she pictured it. She connected two wires together and sighed, knowing it was accomplished.
"After two hours..." X-T said sitting up straight, then grabbing her back, "Oh crap... I'm only 18, an' I'm gettin' back pains?" X-T laughed at herself, then cleared her through. She pressed the silver button on top, three craws coming out from around the sphere. A grin escaped onto X-T's face.

"You rugrats come back here!" Ellen said flying through the room after three youngsters, "Damn, why did I agree to take care of my sister's monsters! Where's Cole, I need help before I squash these kids!"
"Lover I'm back," Iada said coming into the room Deception was sitting in, a grocery bag in her arms, she switched on a light and smiled at the man at the computer as she set down the bag and walked over to the computer and wrapped her arms around him, "So what did you get done?"

X-T jumped out of her chair, knocking the claws back into the sphere.
"Oh shit," X-T said, quickly grabbing the device and through it out the window and into the pool. Seconds later, the pool water exploded up and out of the pool. X-T winced and rubbed her forehead.
"My bad!" X-T said, her face cringed up as she raised her hand to the people outside who were completely drenched. X-T turned to Ellen and smiled.
"Need any help gatherin' th' brats?" X-T said pushing in the chair to the table.

"Must you call me that?" The man said, frowning as she wrapped her arms around him, but made no move to push her off, "I found that X-T and Ellen are still at the Institute. As for the rest of them, I'm still not sure. Amelia and Ravage seem to have convered their tracks quite well. As for Cole, Pain, Ivy, and Jasmine, I have yet to attempt and find them."

"You know you secretly love it," Iada said kissing Zeb's neck and grinning, "You are aware that I can find Amelia through our old link right?"
"Please, they're driving me nuts," Ellen said sinking into a chair and rubbing her temples.

X-T grinned, patting Ellen on the back.
"Eh, I'm jus' suprised ya ain't killed 'em yet," X-T said with a laugh, then walking into the foyer and sniffing the area. She reached under the couch pulling one of the kids by the back of her neck.
"Where's ya siblin's?" X-T said with a smirk as the little girl giggled. She pointed to the other couch, X-T getting the notion that they were under there. And she was right. X-T grabbed and held one kid under her arm and the other by the back of his shirt. She walked into the dinning room with a smile.
"I win," X-T said with a smile, setting down the kid under her arm.

"Mmm." Deception smirked, tilting his head to kiss Iada's cheek, then looking back to the computer, "I was fully aware of that. But seeing as you're never here to help me, I was working on it on my own."

"Well we have to eat," Iada said her cheeks flushing purple, "Good news is wherever Ellen is Cole will be nearby. And as soon I get blue prints on the new mansion I sneak in and gather info on our targets," she said massaging Deception's shoulders to relax him.
"Thanks, I'm glad I can give them back to their parents in a few days, " Ellen said, "Funny how the mutant gene pasted over everyone in my family but me and then they pasted it onto their children. And blazes now their super powered too."

X-T laughed, then sat down, holding one of the kids on her knee.
"Wouldn't know, but sure seems like they don' min' anymore," X-T said, tickling the little girl on her lap, she to giggle and try to get away from her hand.

Deception closed his eyes for a moment, murmering, "You want me to look them up? It'll take a minute or so." He yawned deeply, his muscles relaxing.

"Yeah this place is pretty nice to raise some kids," Ellen shrugged as the two other children hung from her arms.
"Yeah, but you can wait a while, the mansion and our targets aren't going anywhere," Iada said resting her chin on Deception's head, "Besides, I rented a couple movies, and found enough change to buy some rocky road ice cream."

X-T sighed, leaning back in the chair, resting her head on the back of the chair.
"When ya raise someone elses, yeah," X-T said with a laugh, then lifting her head, "Haven't seen Cole fer a while. Do ya know what he's up ta?"

Deception stuck out his tongue. "Rocky road? You can eat it, I'll have a bite or two. Not really hungry. What movies did you get?" He yawned, reaching up to twirl her hair between his fingers.

Ellen grinned, "He's on some mission in Africa, you know the diamond provior of the world if you get my meaning," Ellen said her face flushing a little, "Ever hopeful I am."
"Some Anime stuff that looked good," Iada said and then grinning, "And my personal favorite Phantom of the Opera."
