As the name indicates...this RPG will revolve around Crossroads and New Beginnings.CrossroadsWe would like to see characters come to a 'crossroads' in their lives where important and life changing decisions have to be made. These events can be very personal...i.e. a relationship beginning, ending or changing, or they can be moral or spiritual. Whatever is decided, they should show 'growth' for your character.New BeginningsThis can be any number of items as well and most likely will relate back to the 'crossroads' in your character(s)' life or lives and/or career. They may be starting a new career as teacher or student at Xavier's School for the Gifted or may have been selected to train for the upcoming X-Men team(s). Their 'new beginning' once again may be as simple as establishing a new relationship or changes in an old one.

Ben looked at the kitchen, noticing that the table that had been destroyed earlier had already been replaced. He was a bit curious about the fight that Jubilee mentioned, however. "What was this fight about?" he asked between bites of his sandwich.
Great Room to KitchenNodding slowly, she gave her permission...at least, as far as she could. Putting her hand on the file, she gave him a clear warning. "Mine. Careful." The file was hers and he was to take extreme care of it. Turning to Kitty, she took several steps. "Food..." She said, once more her stomach growled loudly. "N[/i]
Jonathan smiled and nodded, amazed in a way that Karika would trust him so soon with something so precious to her. That, in itself, boded well for being able to gain her confidence to the point where she would accept him as a teacher and guide. He nodded to the other young woman as well. For the moment, as long as Karika’s immediate needs were met, he saw no problem in leaving her in Katherine’s care. He’d also taken note of Warren’s tall figure heading back in the direction of the kitchen. Though normally passive and good-natured, the winged Mutant was also well versed in dealing with the various issues that could arise in a school full of Mutants.
He made his way past Xavier’s office to the copy room, made two quick copies of the file. One for his own study and reference and one to be put in the school’s security files. It would be ‘cleaned’ and a presentable copy put on record in the school’s main database. Jonathan took Karika’s original file, carefully returning it in order to the folder and headed out to catch up with Katherine and their new arrival.
Upon catching up with the two young women, he smiled at both, handing Karika her original file and folder back. Jonathan then held up the copies, making sure she saw both. “This one,” he held one in his right hand, “is my copy. I am locking it away for safe keeping, but I may need to reference the information in it as we progress. This one,” he indicated the file in his left hand, “will go into the secure database here at the institute…NO ONE but specified school staff will have access to it.”
Jonathan smiled again, “I have to meet with the head of this place and I know he’ll want to talk to you later. So…let Katherine get you fed then she can show you to the Professor’s office. I will be there and I’ll stay with you if you like.”Tags: X-23, Kitty
OOC: We won't RP out the entire Xavier interview process. I'll PM you with what he probably would have said and we can agree on putting the information in future posts.

Tags: Open, anyone who is free to watch some movies.
A comfy chair. A packet of popcorn in a bowl. A bottle of soft drink. A few good movies loaded into the Cinema DVD player, one now half way through, Mana grinning from ear to ear at it.
One of the most funniest roles Johnny Depp had ever done. She so could not get enough of him and Charlie and the Chocolate Factory was one of her favourite movies. The old one had been okay, but the lastest one was just the best.
Several other movies were waiting after it to be played... these included Aliens, Serenity, Sky High, among others, and it was a relaxing Mana that was enjoying them. The Professor had told her to get some rest before those from the mission returned. She'd had all the sleep she needed, so this was the next best thing.
Although, watching movies alone wasn't that fun. Her thoughts turned to her foster brother and his wife. Maybe they would join her soon, maybe not, either way, she would welcome any company that decided to drop on by.
Re: Location: Kitchen
"Well, I wasn't really paying all that much attention... but I think the Marine guy that just came to the school ticked off another student and they got into it. Like I said, I left to check on you about then so..."
Jubilee grinned. "I guess I went 'Valley' for a bit there. My mind was miles away during their confrontation. But when I wasn't distracted, it just made me feel like what's the point of being here if all we're going to do is fight, know what I mean? I understand not getting along, but we should be able to talk it out or something." She leaned back and stretched her arms. "I don't know. Just one of those things I suppose."
Re: Theatre Room/Early PM/Open Tags
"That is part of why I came back to the US, was to get away from a life of constant fighting," Ben said. "I was wondering if you would mind showing me around the rest of the mansion, as Jeremy didn't have a chance to finish giving me the tour," he said with a slight smile on his face.
Entry/Foyer of Mansion
Warren had started out of the mansion to go for a walk. He wanted to take off, to fly, but his injured shoulder and flight muscle put that possibility to rest. As he opened the mansion's door he saw Jean, accompanied by three other younger people. He recognized one of the young men as Mez. He had seen him in the great room when the new girl, Karika, was being spoken with.
He tilted his head, watching the small group. The smile of welcome that had been forming faded when he saw the sparks of lightning in Jean's lovely bottle green eyes. The telepath was hard to rile normally so he could only imagine what could have set her off.
In response, though, to seeing his friend upset...even marginally...his wings flared and the feathers fluffed up giving him more of a bird-of-prey appearance than the Angel he was named for. He felt the pull of the damaged flight muscle, but decided against lowering the wings. If something had Jean bothered, the young people with her needed to know that the school staff supported one another.
Inclining his head and opting for a formal and respectful greeting, Warren said, "Dr. Grey...I see you have found a few strays."Tag: Jean, Stacy X, Proteus, Mez (Jean...only when you're ready)
OOC: I'm assuming Warren and Stacy's...erm...history, is irrelevant here?
Stacy had let Mez's idiot comments about working roll off her. She had already told him she hadn't come here to work. Not that she could ever really turn in her uniform...her Birthday Suit didn't come off very easily. But she had put in her resignation at X-ranch, and that was enough. It was over. She had left on good terms, free to come back if the going got rough again.
And speaking of rough, her feet were pulsing as Mez scooped her up as if she were some fairy princess. Stacy had to keep herself from hurling...or was that because she was so hungry. Either way, she was glad to get inside the building. "Okay...ya can put he down now." She said as she stood in front of a man with wings...
Who had some sorta stick in his bum...or he thought he was funny. "Dr. Grey...I see you have found a few strays." "I'm Stacy X..." She said in response, keeping her eyes from rolling back in her head. "Oh...an Mez?" She said, turning to him with the same sour expression before she softened just slightly. "Thanks."
Re: Theatre Room/Early PM/Alisa, Marina and Anyone else"Okay...ya can put he down now." She said as she stood in front of a man with wings...
Mez respected Stace's wishes and set her down. If there was one thing that Mez understood and it was pride. The young man was never a person to take a hand-out especially when he was so close to his goal. Stace looked to be the same way.
Gabrielle looked up at Warren. He remembered how he told him he had a "swimming accident". Whatever pain Warren felt it wasn't enough to stop him from his show of strength. Mez smirked, "cool" was one thing passing through Mez's mind at the time. He nodded at Warren, before addressing Stacy.
I'm Stacy X..." She said in response, keeping her eyes from rolling back in her head. "Oh...an Mez?" She said, turning to him with the same sour expression before she softened just slightly. "Thanks."
"I've met Warren and we down and all" Mez said to Stacy reassuring her. "No problem" The young man said. The word "anytime" didn't feel appropriate. Whatever beef Stace had with Mez, was something, she would have to grill up and eat. As far as he was concerned it was something that wasn't his problem. Mez kept his composure, assuring and light, he wasn't in the mood for a fight. He was glad that she softened up, Mez did the same in return. "Sir" Mez said back to Warren. "Young lady here, got a mean injury to the bottom of her feet. Know where we can find something to remedy that?" Mez asked him.
Mez put his hand in his pocket and pulled out his I-pod, he was in desperate need of a funk beat. He put only one ear-phone on so he could listen better and kept it quiet. He couldn't help but get with the flow of Rakim's "18th Letter(Always and Forever)"
Re: Theatre Room/Early PM/Alisa, Marina and Anyone else
OOC: The Reunion is over, praise be to whatever Gods may exist. I'm living dead right now, so this post is most likely not lucid. Sorry about that.
Proteus at the moment was strictly that. Niether really Kevin or Lucas. There were few who could follow the subtle changes in personality that were a daily occurance. Most shrugged it off as teenage mood swings. That wasn't too far from the truth. Proteus just tried to relax a little.
He saw Stacy get acclimated and drifted away from her. If she needed him, she could holler. Proteus was thinking hard about making a mad dash from his bed room. Then he saw Mez's Ipod. Proteus had a strong sense of curiosity which came from Lucas so he wandered over to Mez and cleared his throat once.
"I hope you don't mind me asking, but what do you have on there," Proteus probed, pointing to the Ipod. He was curious, his own musical tastes were still forming.

"I hope you don't mind me asking, but what do you have on there," Proteus probed, pointing to the Ipod. He was curious, his own musical tastes were still forming.
"I don't know if If I have what you're lookin' for man, I probably got a bit of different tastes then you do"
Mez couldn't help but put on a great smile. Mez showed up his I-pod. "But since you asked I have only 30's worth of some of the best music known to man:Got some of the new stuff, Sean Paul, R. Kelly, Kanye West, Mos Def, Black Eyed Peas, Talib Kweli" Mez had to stop to control himself.
"Eric B. and Rakim, Kool Moe Dee, Kool G. Rap, Big Daddy Kane, Dr. Dre, Tupac, and other rappers from the 80's and 90's' Said James, his love of music obvious
"Then you can even go further back, Aretha Franklin, Ella Fitzgerald, Muddy Waters, BB King, Marvin Gaye, Otis Redding. Just to name a few, there's a lot of em' so its kind of hard to mention all of them. Because when it comes to music, famous, may not necessarily mean great and great may not necessarily mean famous. A lot of greats never got recognition for what their music." Mez said.
"Sad thing when you can't get your own rep. But thats how things turned out. You want to borrow it" Mez said holding his I-pod. "We gonna have to school in the House of Funk." Mez said still bearing a great smile. Mez didn't doubt that pretty much all of the people he mentioned were probably unknown to him, like he said, that didn't diminish their lyrical and musical talent.
Re: Theatre Room/Early PM/Alisa, Marina and Anyone else
Stacy looked around a bit...nice place. Real high class, probably not the place for her. And then again, they let Mez in...and they took crazy uncivilized girl in. So, maybe it was the palce for her. And she liked the look of that winged man...he was a man she'd take to her bed any day of the week. "I've met Warren and we down and all" "Hey man, I don' need ta know how ya get down wit' other guys." She teased, nudging him lightly.
At least her disposition had improved. Whether he took it as a joke or not, she was having fun at least. Mez even seemed to be not so annoying...maybe it was because she knew she was in a place where she was safe. "No problem""Young lady here, got a mean injury to the bottom of her feet. Know where we can find something to remedy that?" "Ain't nothin' ta..." Looking down at her feet, she didn't finish her sentance.
There was plenty to worry about judging by the purple hue her feet had taken on and the blood and blisters that tainted her delicate feet, signaling quite clearly that not only had she ripped her feet apart, they were infected as well. "Well...I guess I ought ta get a bandage at least." If there was anything positive ever to say about Stacy, it was at least that she was one of the strongest women alive. From infancy she had raised herself, learning everything a child should and should not know; from the age of 14 she was completely financially independant, without any help from anyone. It was impressive...
And utterly disturbing all at the same time.

Re: Theatre Room/Early PM/Alisa, Marina and Anyone else
OOC: Thanks for the sympathy.
IC:
Kevin was a bit more reserved in his musical tastes than Lucas. Lucas was a big fan of American Rap while Kevin wasn't. Lucas won out in this confrontation of the personalities and Kevin went to go 'sulk' as he called it when he went into the back of the shared mind.
"Eric B. and Rakim, Kool Moe Dee, Kool G. Rap, Big Daddy Kane, Dr. Dre, Tupac, and other rappers from the 80's and 90's."
"Do you have 2Pacalypse Now on there?" Lucas asked. It was probably his favorite album by Tupac. It wasn't that the other artists weren't good, but you could really understand Tupac's anger, his frustration with the world. Lucas' favorite song off of 2Pacalypse Now was most likely "Violent" as (in Lucas' opinion) it was the clearest expression of that anger. It was almost a material thing at some points in the song.
"Then you can even go further back, Aretha Franklin, Ella Fitzgerald, Muddy Waters, BB King, Marvin Gaye, Otis Redding. Just to name a few, there's a lot of em' so its kind of hard to mention all of them. Because when it comes to music, famous, may not necessarily mean great and great may not necessarily mean famous. A lot of greats never got recognition for what their music."
"Do you have any Coltrane?" Lucas asked. Coltrane might have been more of a Jazz artist, but there was not denying that Coltrane was damn good. Lucas had acquired most of his taste in Jazz from Kevin. Thelonius Monk, Ella Fitzgerald, Duke Ellington, Miles Davis, and Diana Krall were all acquired tastes from Kevin, but Lucas had found himself liking these artists more and more of his own choice. There was no denying that Jazz was good music to relax to.
Lucas saw Mez's smile and returned it. It was not nearly as wide as Mez's was, nor did Lucas part his lips. It was a small thing, but pleasant none-the-less.
Re: Theatre Room/Early PM/Alisa, Marina and Morpheus
Warning: Minor Language
"Hey man, I don' need ta know how ya get down wit' other guys." She teased, nudging him lightly.
"Daaamn" Mez said with a slight smile laughing, he couldn't really find a come-back for that. He had to cover his eyes from the sheer shame. Stace a had got him real good, Mez just laughed with her teasing. "Girl that is cruel" He said. James put his I-pod in his pocket, he'd have to let Proteus borrow it later.

Mez changed his look, cocking an eyebrow back. "Who you think you talkin too, boy, of course I do!" Mez said, chuckling. "Tupac still puttin' out even after his death. Sad thing is Dr. Dre ain't doin' his albums no more. HIS mama, in charge of it. She keepin' it hot." Mez said.

There was no denying that Jazz was good music to relax to.
Mez rubbed his eyes a little. "Boy, my vision must be screwin' with me, because you sound like you got some black in you" said the young man. "You see" Mez said starting to repeat the beggining verse of Gang Starr and Guru's 'Jazz Music. "The music started in the hearts and drums, from another land played for everyone, by sons, of the motherland sendin out a message of peace, to everybody and came across the oceans in chains and shame, easing the pain, and it was without name
Until some men in New Orleans on Rampart Street, put out the sounds, and then they gave it a beat, I'm talkin bout Jelly Roll, King, and Satch, I'm talkin bout the music that had no match. Yes the music, and it was born down there
We're gonna use it, so make the horn sound clear. It's jazz music... jazz music" Mez said
Well...I guess I ought ta get a bandage at least." If there was anything positive ever to say about Stacy, it was at least that she was one of the strongest women alive.
Mez kneeled and examind one of Stace's feet, lightly "Well, one thing's for sure, you're gonna need a whole lot more then a bubu kiss" Mez said jokingly. "You're feet are probably infected from whatever the heck you were walkin' in, look pretty bad. But hey, there may be something better than a bandage around here yet" Mez said standing up. "Just gotta find it first". He said shrugging his shoulders. "You just sit tight for a bit an' we'll see if we can find you somethin'." He said.
Re: Theatre Room/Early PM/Alisa, Marina and Morpheus"Tupac still puttin' out even after his death. Sad thing is Dr. Dre ain't doin' his albums no more. HIS mama, in charge of it. She keepin' it hot."
"God rest," Lucas said crossing himself unconciously. It was a gesture that had been performed at least one hundred times during his life. It was a reflex when talking about the deceased. He did not understand why, but the gesture brought him no comfort. It was a superstious thing.
"Boy, my vision must be screwin' with me, because you sound like you got some black in you" "You just sit tight for a bit an' we'll see if we can find you somethin'."
"According to most scientist, modern humans first emerged in Africa, so who knows," Lucas joked. Kevin smirked, he was proud all the knowledge his mother had given him was finally paying off. He just liked jazz, was it so odd that white people could like that sort of music? He just shook his head. He didn't know if Lucas' body was part black. It might be possible, but it was not probable.
"You just sit tight for a bit an' we'll see if we can find you somethin'."
Kevin pushed foreward taking temporary control of the body. "Wait, Ramana's a healer or at least partially. If we could find her I'm sure she could do something to help," Kevin suggested. Kevin was the one who memorized the gifts of others. It was a useful thing in case he ever needed to possess people.

"Amen" Mez said doing the cross over his chest. "You know rap is probably the most misunderstood form of music out there. Most people think its just a bunch of fools yelling loud. But if ya pay attention, and listen to the important things that some of em' talk about, you realize there's a whole lot more to it then just cussin. When you live a hard life, after a while you want it to get better, and thats what Tupac would have done. He talked about a lot of dirty stuff early on, but I think in the end he really have a lot of lessons to teach knuckleheads like me." Mez said to Kevin.

Mez laughed uncontrollably. "Your moms must be one heck of a lady." Mez said to him. "Where you from anyway man?" Mez asked him. He was kind of curious, Proteus was bit peculiar to say the least.
"Wait, Ramana's a healer or at least partially. If we could find her I'm sure she could do something to help," Kevin suggested.
"No kiddin'" Mez said in disbelief. "Sounds like plan to me." Mez said nodding his head. "I'm on it." Mez said searching for Mana.
Re: Theatre Room/Early PM/Open Tags
Jubilee smiled at him.
"I'd be happy too. Of course, I don't know my way around either so I suppose we'll have to get lost together."
She stood up and pulled out a pack of gum. Pulling out two pieces, she put one in her mouth and held a piece out for Ben, holding it between two of her fingers.
"Do you want some? I know earlier you didn't, but you should give it a try."
Re: Theatre Room/Early PM/Alisa, Marina and Morpheus
Stacy just smirked when Mez spoke."Girl that is cruel" Cocking her eybrow, she folded her arms. "Newsflash, babe, I haven't been a girl since I was 12." And that wasn't a lie either but she was just teasing him. Calling Stacy things like 'girl' would've worked...if she hadn't been X-Ranch's hottest hooker 5 years in a row.
Looking around, she listened abstractly to their conversation about music. Stacy loved music herself...but mostly the sappy romantic music. It was almost embarassing to her to admit it...she worked in in a field that was the antithesis of romance. She was in the adult industry...and love rarely survived more than a few minutes. It was about lust and power...not about any of the love that artists like Peter Cetera and Celine Dion sang about.
Before she knew it, Mez was on his knees, examining her feet. Even the slightest touch made her wince. "Well, one thing's for sure, you're gonna need a whole lot more then a bubu kiss" "Don' touch!" She snapped. Her voice was tight from the pain and she was sure she would've clocked him over the head if she hadn't been pressing her nails into her palms hard. "You're feet are probably infected from whatever the heck you were walkin' in, look pretty bad. But hey, there may be something better than a bandage around here yet" "Just gotta find it first""You just sit tight for a bit an' we'll see if we can find you somethin'."
Biting her lip to and keep from crying out or smacking someone, she nodded. "I was in th' sewers...ya know, tha's the only safe place fer a girl like me ta travel. Lookin' like I do." Stacy had no dilusions about the scales on her face, legs arms and belly. They made her who she was today...good or bad, she was herself. And she hoped she could sit down soon, as Mez suggested. It wasn't just her feet that hurt, but her whole body...her feet just bore the brunt of the pain, as they were what she had walked on all the way here.
Kevin's voice broke her from her reverie. "Wait, Ramana's a healer or at least partially. If we could find her I'm sure she could do something to help," Nodding, she took a shuddering breath to try and alleviate the pain. "I'll take jus' abou' anythin' at this point...I ain' gunna lie...I don' think I cen stand much longer." Her head was already spinning; it was very obvious that she was not well. Stacy just hoped she could keep it together for the time being.
Re: Theatre Room/Early PM/Alisa, Marina and Morpheus
Proteus thought for a moment. He knew that by possessing Stacy, he could temporarily nullify the pain, but chances were, she wouldn't let him use his power. Proteus didn't even know if he wanted to perform the possession as it would have "backlash" where he temporarily took on the personality characteristics of the person he absorbed. He didn't know Stacy well enough to deal with the personality traits he would absorb. He shook himself out of his reverie.
"Where did Mana go?" Proteus asked aloud. He was thinking to himself in part but he was also adressing the universe. He wasn't certain where she had disappeared to. He didn't have any easy way of locating her. It wasn't like he was a psionic GPS system. He wasn't even telepathic yet he had the ability to take the bodies of others.
He looked at Stacy X and thought hard for a moment. No one deserved to be in that sort of pain. He kneeled down near her an looked straight into her eye. "If you want, I can temporarily allievate your pain, but my temporary cure is not without a price, a heavy price," Kevin warned.
Re: Theatre Room/Early PM/Alisa, Marina, Morpheus, Mana"Newsflash, babe, I haven't been a girl since I was 12." And that wasn't a lie either but she was just teasing him.
Mez stared at her breifly. He thought she was just trying to tease even though it sounded like she took it seriously. James teased. "Newsflash, I haven't been a babe, since...I was a babe" He said in a playful tone.
"Don' touch!" She snapped. Her voice was tight from the pain and she was sure she would've clocked him over the head if she hadn't been pressing her nails into her palms hard.
Mez did his best not to touch, but her feet were a whole lot more tender than they appeared to be. The young man pulled back his hand as soon as Mez picked up the painful tone. The young hydrokinetic, wasn't a Doctor, Mez knew onyl basic first aid and this type of injury wasn't covered by that.
"I was in th' sewers...ya know, tha's the only safe place fer a girl like me ta travel. Lookin' like I do." Stacy had no dilusions about the scales on her face, legs arms and belly.
Mez stood up and looked at her for a few seconds before coming up with an answer. He wasn't sure what he could say to her. "I told you when you walked through those doors you wouldn't be the same person you were on the other side of them. So here you don't have to worry bout' who you were or what you look like, we're all in the same boat. If you we can't accept eachother, then who else will?" Mez said, the last part a bit rhetorical.
"Where did Mana go?" Proteus asked aloud. He was thinking to himself in part but he was also adressing the universe.
"Well, we're just gonna have to do it the old-fashioned way...look" Mez said, just as unaware of Mana's whereabouts as anyone was.
"If you want, I can temporarily allievate your pain, but my temporary cure is not without a price, a heavy price," Kevin warned.
"I think we should give Mana a shot before we do something....drastic." Mez said to Kevin. He didn't really know what Kevin was talking about but his phrasing of his warning sounded pretty serious. "I'll be right back" Mez said to the pair of people before leaving on his quest for Mana.
The Mansion was pretty big, but Mez started off with all the rooms closest to the foyer. It didn't really take long for him to find a place where somebody might hang-out, like the Theater Room for instance. Peering through the door Mez found Mana in one of the seats. "Excuse Me Mana, you remember Stace right?" Mez asked, it was a stupid question. "She's got some mean damage to her feet that she got on the way up here. Kevin told me you were a healer, and she needs some help pretty bad." Mez told Mana.
Re: Theatre Room/Early PM/Alisa, Marina and Morpheus
Ben took the offered stick of gum and put it in his mouth after unwrapping it. "Thank you," he said to Jubilee as he started to chew his stick of gum. He then looked to the door. "So, shall we get lost together?" he asked with a slight grin on his face.
Background: Many, many years ago, Charles Francis Xavier established Xavier's School for the Gifted. Also, seeing other Mutants misusing and abusing their powers, he created the first generation of the X-Men.This original team was trained and lead by an old friend of his...Logan, aka Wolverine. Logan's co-leader was a young woman and student named Ororo Munroe, aka Storm. Once the team was trained and fielded on active missions, they took on the additional responsibility of teaching and helping new Mutants deal with their powers.On one horrible night, the X-Men were fielded to stop a particularly powerful Mutant and his 'gang'. The 'intelligence' received on this Mutant and his cohorts was sketchy and actually turned out to be a set-up to entrap the X-Men and take them captive. In the ensuing melee', 'things' happened and a number of the team were killed outright or severely injured.After making sure his remaining team-mates were going to be okay, Logan left. Xavier has not, to current time, explained his absence or even whether or not he survived.Current Time/Game Time: Almost seven years later, as Human/Mutant incidents are on the rise, Xavier once again sees a need for a Mutant 'police force'. He sees this new X-Men team as a force for good and a way to help peacefully integrate the rapidly emerging Mutant society with the established Human society. To this end, he has contacted Logan and asked him to 'come home' and train his 'new' team.
Logan has reluctantly agreed.Can shadows from their past be put aside for the good of the new X-Men? How will the surviving members of the original team react and what will they do as 'truths' are learned about that disastrous night?Note: We want the new X-Men to include younger versions of the old familiar characters such as Scott, Jean, Beast etc...as well as many of the OCC’s and other Canon characters that are available.Please ask the Staff BEFORE stating or establishing that your character was one of the old, now disbanded, original X-Men.
