"Oh man! I can't believe I forgot how luxurious this place was!" Tabitha said in her loud voice as she entered the living room of the mansion. "I'm gonna have to get used to this all over again!" She said with a smile as she dropped her bag next to a couch. She plopped down on it and stretched out, pulling her feet up on an armrest and putting her hands behind her head. She looked around for a minute before she sat up. "I need some music." She opened her bag and pulled out a portable CD player. She put the headphones around her neck and turned the music all the way up. She stood up and started dancing to it, the music blasting through the previous silence.

"I recognize that slightly insane voice." Hannah said, pausing as she listened. She had been walking around with Amara, taking a break from organizing the new mutants. Then it clicked. "Oh. My. God." She and Amara looked at each other.
"Boom-Boom."
Amara looked thrilled as she sped into the room. She and Tabby had always got along well. "Tabitha!"

"Amara! Hey!" Tabitha looked up as she heard her name and saw her old friend. She quickly turned the music down so that she could hear better, and she didn't stop dancing.
((OOC: I haven't seen the series in a while, so please forgive me if Tab's mannerisms are a bit off.))

"Tabitha!" Amara's eyes were shining with excitement. "What are you doing here? I thought you liked being out on your own and making your own rules." She was so suprised to see her friend at the Institute. The girl cast a happy smile back at Hannah, who stood back, as though supervising.

"I got bored! I missed you guys to much to stay away forever!" She said, still dancing. "So," she stopped dancing a moment. "How have you guys been since I left?"

"You'll never believe it, Tabitha!" Amara looked back at Hannah before continuing. "I have a boyfriend and Hannah has kids! Twin girls! And they're still so young." Amara was really excited about the boyfriend part.

"Wow. A lot has happened since I left. Congrats! Both guys better be cute!" She said with a wink.

"Amara's guy is cute. But things with me and my guy aren't looking so good. We're going downhill nonstop." Hannah shrugged nonchalantly. Oddly enough, she no longer cared that her and Fritz's relationship seemed to be doomed. "He just hasn't been around enough for me and the girls."
"Yeah, so pretty much every one of Hannah's friends is mad at him. But my guy is so cute!" Amara smiled, blushing slightly. "How about you, Tabitha? What've you been doing?"

"I've been okay. I've done some traveling, livin' it up. " She turned her CD player off. "But enough about me. How much has it changed around here? Many new recruits?"

"Actually, yeah. We've had new recruits coming in groups lately. And my long-lost sister happened to be one of them a couple of months ago. So I've lived the cliche." Hannah grinned slightly. "Xavier is....gone so to speak, so Iris has taken over."

"'Kay. So, are any of the old X-Men still 'round?" Tabitha said, thinking of a certain blue fuzzy person. "Do lots of people just show up or are they all recruited?"

"You mean, Nightcrawler." Hannah grinned teasingly. "Yeah, Kurt's still around. Amara's here. Ray's off at college. Beast is always here. Logan's here. Rogue's still here. A lot of the old X-Men are here. And a bunch of the people just seem to show up."

"Yes. So, are the rules any less strict?" She asked, dancing a bit. "Hope they are, 'cuz I don't want to be 'grounded' again. It's just to tempting for me, with all the people to trick."

"Don't worry. You can get away with a hell of a lot more." Hannah grinned. "Just don't overdo it, and you're safe. Iris has more important things to pay attention to, like everyone's safety. So you can do almost whatever you want."

"I am gonna have so much fun! So, kitchen still in the same place and where do I sleep?" She asked, happy to hear that it was a lot less strict. "Do I have to go back to school and what kinda training am I supposed to go through?"

"You'll be in the database by now." Hannah muttered, pressing a button on her watch. "Requesting team placement information for Smith, Tabitha."
<Team Placement for Smith, Tabitha. ZetaTeam>
"There you go. You will be living in the Vulcan Dormitory. You train under Iris, who is captain of the Zeta team. Amara is co-captain."

"Teams? Wow, sounds fun. Where can I get one of those watches?" She asked, eyeing Hannah's watch.

Hannah flipped open a small pouch on her belt. She always had it with her nowadays with so many new mutants arriving. Hannah picked one watch out of the bag and handed it to Boom-Boom. "Here you go, Boom. Your very own watch. GPS, access to the main computer, time, date, you can ask it for information on any mutant and if they are in the database, it will give you whatever piece of information you want, plus a lot of other fun features."

Tabitha took the watch gratfully. "Thanks. So, do we still have to wear those old yellow and black uniforms?" She asked as she strapped the new watch on her left wrist. "Or have they been updated?"

"Press that little blue button on the side of the watch. It changes you into your own customized uniform to suit your unique tastes." Hannah grinned as she explained. "So, yes, they have been updated. Trust me, everyone needed a change." Amara nodded in agreement.
