Who: Desmond Age
With: Emma Frost
Where: Outskirts of the Mansion
When: Early Afternoon
OOC: Since it was late morning in the Zenger Park thread, I assumed they’d get to the mansion by anywhere from a little after noon to farther. If I’m wrong, tell me and I’ll change it.

“Is…Is that it?”

Those words came after a gasp for breath, not because Desmond was exasperated from following Emma, but because Emma was amazed at the size of the mansion. His deep brown eyes nearly bulged out of their socket as the mansion came into view. Slowly, Desmond pulled his hanging chin up and closed his mouth. Surprise was clearly displayed on his face as he gazed at the mansion.

It’s…It’s huge…And it’s…it’s beautiful. The buildings back in Harlem were all so dreary, they all looked the same. They were all red brick big apartment buildings. Even though they were piled high, I still hated them…But this, just looking at this house can make me smile.

“It looks like they took the apartment building we used to live on, and flipped it on it’s side. Instead of making a tall house they made a long one, that’s so cool! And it’s not ugly like that stupid apartment building either!” Desmond paused as his eyes scanned the lush green yard in front of him. “And there’s a yard here! I’ve never seen this much green in one place, even at the park! All this belongs to the house?”

A broad smile carved itself into Desmond’s face. His bandanna sagged below his chin due to the rapid movements of his mouth, revealing his dimple on his right cheek. Desmond’s movements slowed to a complete stop as he stood erect. His eyes darted from one corner of his socket to the next, staring at everything in front of him in amazement. If Emma didn’t notice, she would certainly leave him behind as he daydreamed.

Mez was taken aback when Karika jumped at the fir-ball. She seemed uneasy about. He never thought that anything could give her the spooks.

Stepping forward, she carefully pulled her dress off to reveal a white undershirt. She wasn't going to mess up her pretty dress, of course. Sticking her wrist out, she slid her adamantium claws over the pale skin. Blood exploded outwards and dripped onto the ground. The pain was evident in her face and by the whiteness in her knuckles as she bit her lip. Within seconds the three deep serrations bound themselves and a minute later Karika looked totally healed.

With a smirk, she pressed her wrist forward to show them she was fully healed and without a scar. "See?"

"Whoo" Mez said putting a period at the end of his sentence with a whistle. "That some cool stuff." Mez said to the both of them. Both of their abilities left Mez in awe. They truly had some awesome gifts. Mez still had a lot to learn about his own. Particulary liquidating himself. It always was incredibly painful and one day Mez hoped it wouldn't always be so difficult.

Gabriel smiled, "Well, that's not all I can do. Watch this." He turned toward the nearest tree, which was about 50 meters away. He jogged a couple steps toward it then jumped, clearing the distance to the tree. He reached out and grabbed ahold of a branch, breaking it off. He landed with a soft thud on his feet and then reared back. After a second or two he launched the tree branch straight up like a javelin. He then smiled at the two in attendance. "So far that's all I know I can do, but it's like I get new powers every day."


Mez watched Gabriel. "Damm" said Mez as Gabriel leaped. He took a large branch off a tree and whipped it into the air. It went clear into the sky and Mez squinted until it dissapeared. That some cool stuff, he thought.

Gabriel's eyes went wide as he saw the tree branch coming down right toward Karika and Mez. "LOOK OUT!!" He reached up with both his hands. In a split second, far shorter than it took him last time, his eyes erupted with the plasma glow and then fired off a blast straight into the descending branch

Mez heard the warning of danger before he saw it. The branch made a slight whistling sound as it cut the air. "Ah, shit" Mez thought. Someone kicked in Mez's mind whether it be from instincts or some part of his training but he jumped on Karika and knocked her down on the ground. He gave liquidating himself a breif thought but before Mez could fully do it...Gabriels plasma blast hit the branch and it exploded like an air-burst projectile.

Closed his eyes and his face twisted in silent pain. He grunted as he rolled over. A bad idea. The wooden fragments in his back, dug deeper. Mez groaned, getting to his feet. They were wobbly, and slipped to his knees. The back of his clothes was torn, blood oozed out of the wounds. Mez touched his back and winced from the pain, his hand coming back a dark red. "Shit." Mez said staring down at his hand before he passed out on the grass.

---

Summary: Mez is amazed at the powers of Gabriel and Karika. When Gabe's javelin explodes he pushes Karika down and takes wood fragments in the back. He passed out on the grass.
