SECHS
Sechs could tell how the others were getting impatient and being on their guard. Maybe he should be too, as he had always been. Maybe he was getting lax because he had been having a good time at the mansion. A well deserve respite to be honest. But has he had seen, so many mutants there were only there by luck, what would happen when school is over? How would they find their place in the world, if a place there was.
It seemed rather like there was no place for them in this world. And very few humans had not being hellbent on hunting them down so far. His thoughts turned to his leader, the only one that had never turned his back on him, even on the verge of death. He felt bad for leaving him behind, but he didn't really had a choice at that time. The whole gang wanted him dead after all. A look of gloom passed over his face has he recalled those events. Always on the run, always hiding, always lurking in the shadows, trying to survive. Thats what he had done for so long that the time passed at the mansion felt like a whimsical dream.
He sighed.
-Guys, calm down will ya, you both so stiff it feel like you have a broom shove up your a**...-
He told them. Not that he meant any disrespect, but as a leader, Kurt had to keep a calm head and he could tell the man was rather riled up and so was Bobby.
-Thanks for showing us around by the way...so, maybe a weird question, but like, if you live on an island, do you like, grow your own stuff or something?-
He turned to Wanda and Pietro.

Social skills, 2, street wise, to tell Kurt and Bobby to calm down.

"Uh, way." Sam smiled.
"Again, not way.." The psychiatrist shook her head.
"Excellent. We shall proceed with a small test, then." The psychiatrist nodded watching Ishbel take off her device.
The flames on Ishbel's head started off normally, no activity. But of course, Ishbel was inside of her own head. As she took the device off her mind wandered to what the worst case scenario would be. Well, the worst case would be if she did explode here and now. What would even cause her to explode? Well, her recent past wasn't the best of situations. The loss of her father. The thugs who torched her home. The lake incident with Melissa. And most recently, Sam's reaction that Ishbel took as a rejection. There was enough gas to put on the flame atop of Ishbel's head, and she was catching it herself.
"Wow. You've quite the temper. You're already starting to heat up." The psychiatrist commented. "Your file says you used to take pills to become stabilized, but you were just being over dosed to the point of you becoming a zombie. Clearly we're going to try and not rely on that. But when you begin heating up like this, what happens? Does your mind just fog away and you give into anger? Or do you seek an outlet due to your powers? I see here we have a few pieces of information missing from your file, so I'd like to be able to check as much of them off as I can while here. So please, Ishbel, explain how you feel without your device. Not so much of what you're feeling for in life, but how you feel when the device is off of you. Clearly your life and it's troubles fuel this heat, but explain it to me."
Ishbel's heat was starting to rise quickly. However, she wasn't losing her temper just yet, as there was nothing immediate that was pushing her buttons. Her past and the incident with Sam just a bit ago was on the back on her mind, no doubt, but as of now her temper was fine for the time being.

Serita
"I can think of a solid way. I'll convince the Xmen to take you back to their home. It should be easy. Their mission is to bring mutants to their mansion and to train them in using their powers. You can take advantage of that while you're there as well. But, your main mission is to convince those young mutants that there is another side to this war. For now, they believe that mutants and humans are able to work together. We, in the Brotherhood, believe mutants should be the only ones left. Humans have had their turn, and they've ruined any opportunities they've had. Mutants are stronger and will stick together, creating a better world for any mutant. And so, you will tell them what side the Brotherhood stands for. Anyone at the school who shows any hesitance for being at the school will be the ones you'll go for."
"Should be easy enough." Pyro butted in. "Most of the mutants they get are saved from horrible conditions, so they should already know the dangers of humans. Just a lil nudge and they're yours for ticklin' their ears."
"So..she's gonna get to live in the mansion with 'em?" Toad questioned.
"If we're able to convince them to take Serita, yes. After all, Serita, you're very sickly. You need medical treatment, don't you?" She winked to Serita. "And there's no way we can continue taking care of you in this cave. No, we'd need far advanced medical equipment to help you and your condition. And once she's healed, she can live amongst them, telling them of how humans are."
"Your story is one for the ages. It would convince anyone that humans are wicked." She nodded.
"Hey. I think Pietro and Wanda are comin' back."
"Thank you, Blob. If what you've told me is correct, they should be arriving with the X-men. I'll need to take on a different form in order to appease them." Mystique said transforming her body into another person's appearance. Nobody in the room recognized the girl that Mystique took form of, but she looked to be like a young girl with blonde in her early teens. "And for the love of god, don't address me as who I am while they're here." She shot a look at Toad.
(ooc: Drop down to Sech's session, you'll be joining in with Mephsitel from now on)

Sechs
The group continued walking, but looked at Sechs with surprise.
"Boy's got a spine. I like it."
"Knock it off, Pietro. You're no better riling them up."
"Hey, not my fault they can't keep up." He shrugged.
"Let us just get this over with. I would like to speak with the siblings."
"Of course. They're just inside the cave here."
"Ah, yeah we totally do. Wanda takes care of it. Why don't you handle this question sis. I'll go get the kiddos." Pietro said as he sped off into the cave in a white blur.
Inside the cave Serita and the rest of the group felt a harsh wind run passed them.
"Frickin' Pietro..." Blob barked.
Wanda sighed and walked them into the cave. "Yes, we do grow our own food here. It's what we have to do in order to survive. Other resources we have to find outside of the island and scrap."
"Like stealing?" Robbie questioned.
"You'd be tempted too if you were run off into the island fearing your life." Wanda didn't deny having to steal for their resources. Something Sechs could relate to. "Well, we're here. In our somewhat comfortable home." Wanda said taking the group to the cave to show them a rag-tag team.
Inside the cave were 5 other people, mutants presumably. One was a large fat man sitting on a rock, the other a slim frog-like mutant who sat with his knees bent up high. A normal looking human with sunglasses, a sickly looking girl with long brown hair, and another girl with short blonde hair.
"Xmen, this is the Brotherhood of mutants. Our small family we have here on the island. Brotherhood, this is the Xmen." Wanda introduced them to each other.
Neither side really spoke up (ooc: Unless Sechs or Serita decided to say something first) so the room stayed quiet for a bit.
"I do not see the siblings here."
"Pietro went to get them. They don't come out of their rooms often." Wanda explained.
"Guess it's kinda cool to see other mutants. Especially some that can stand out like the rest of us. 'Cept you, Pyro. The only thing that stands out is your Australian."
'Wanker.." Pyro quipped back at Blob. "Ello, X-men. Welcome to our nice little cave-home. Hope you don't mind us, we were told to behave for ya."
"Much appreciated. We are only here to see of the siblings. We mean no harm ourselves."
"Oh those blokes. Rough crowd with 'em. Well, at least for the girl."
Out of the crowd came a young blonde haired girl to rush to Wanda. Wanda hugged the girl. The girl whispered into Wanda's ear while Wanda bent down to listen to her.
"Oh, yes of course. Magneto will be back very soon." She nodded, holding the girl. "Sorry, she seems to be in a mood." Wanda nodded to the Xmen. "I will put her in her room very quickly and return. Pietro should be returning with the siblings very soon. Please excuse me." Wanda took the girl's hand and walked with her down into the cave.
(OOC: Okay so Sechs and Serita are in the same room now. The Xmen have met the Brotherhood, and it's pretty quiet amongst you two groups. Again, unless Sechs or Serita want to speak up for any reason. Pietro and the siblings will come in next panel unless something happens between the two groups here.)
