[@Nallore]: [color=FAFD95]"Not every mutant woman, damn it, I've got a niece!"[/color] Havok said, chuckling. [color=FAFD95]"You'd like her - her name's Sara, she's up at Xavier's. She's just a teenager and is already raising hell."[/color] As Colossus came back into the room, his face fell a bit, hearing Havok talk about his niece. Sara was just a few years younger than his sister, Illyana. Colossus still hadn't been able to find her, after all of this time. He wished Illyana could have been up at Xavier's where it was safe. 

[color=B0B4B0]"Remind me to send Sara birthday card,"[/color] Colossus told Havok. [color=B0B4B0]"I almost forgot."[/color]

[color=FAFD95]"Yeah, sure thing,"[/color] Havok told him. [color=FAFD95]"I was going to ask Veil about heading up there this weekend but..."[/color] he fell silent, knowing that the odds were slim that they would see their fearless leader any time soon. And Veil had indicated that Spark Plug would be her replacement. 

Caitlin, meanwhile, was considering how to diplomatically answer Spark Plug's question. "Normally, I would want to keep you here for observation for a few days... but this isn't the first time someone from the Mutant Underground has gotten hurt, so I know that you'll be wanting to leave. Give the clinic a call if you feel weird at all, but otherwise, I'm going to give you some oxycodone for the pain and you can go." Caitlin then handed Spark Plug a bag with a few weeks supply. "This is a controlled substance, so don't abuse it."[hr][hr][center][h1][b][i][color=935DB8]Veil[/color][/i][/b][/h1][img]https://i.postimg.cc/tJNXFJbg/tumblr-nghuoks75i1u4gz2oo4-250.gif[/img][hr][hr][b][color=935DB8]Location:[/color][/b] Jail
[b][color=935DB8]Skills:[/color][/b] N/A [hr][/center]	Veil looked at her friend. She doubted that the officers would come for them any time soon. Places like this, they usually wanted to drive those they captured out of their minds a little bit before interrogating them. It was all about getting inside the criminal's heads - and they couldn't risk the safety of the Mutant Underground. 

	[color=935DB8]"When you were at O.M.E.N.... How did you know you could trust Freddie?"[/color] Veil asked. She had heard Sapphire talk about him before and she knew a little bit about the ex-O.M.E.N. agent. The last she had heard of him, he had joined up with S.H.I.E.L.D. A bit better of an organization, but one that couldn't protect mutants no matter how hard they tried. She knew that Sapphire wasn't exactly going to open up about everything - she still didn't even know the name of everyone at X-Factor that the ice queen had worked with and Veil was her best friend. 

	[color=935DB8]"He was one of the people experimenting on you, right?"[/color][hr][hr][center][h1][b][i][color=DAF7A6]Sunshine[/color][/i][/b][/h1][img]https://i.postimg.cc/m2WzM1YT/original.gif[/img][hr][hr][b][color=DAF7A6]Location:[/color][/b] the Morlock Tunnels 
[b][color=DAF7A6]Skills:[/color][/b] N/A [hr][/center][hider=Visual][i]To let you guys get an idea of what this place looks like better than I could describe it[/i]

	Erg turned and stared at Max for a moment, a bit surprised to hear those words come from his mouth. Most mutants knew how dire the situation was for the survival of their people and now, looking at Max, all he saw was a naive young boy. [color=0C6598]"Perhaps I should have opened with some sort of... jingle, a fun and catchy tune?"[/color] Erg suggested. His tone was anything but friendly. Just as he had been glaring at Jack earlier, now he was glaring at Max. [color=0C6598]"Or maybe I should have offered her an evening gown, as if this were some sort of department store? You are right. Please, lead the Morlocks. Protect this community. You are clearly qualified to do so."[/color]

	He then sighed slightly, looking at them. These people were so clueless as to the ways of the world, it made him pity them - and wonder how they had survived this long. [color=0C6598]"Do you want to know why I brought this gun over? In New York City, there was an incident involving the agents of a man called Sinister. They went into the tunnels and found the Morlocks living there - and since they were welcomed with open arms and no questions were asked, they were slaughtered. The sewer ran red with their blood - the blood of Morlock brothers and sisters. I will not make the same mistakes. I am here to protect my people - and [i]only[/i] my people. If you think my methods are cruel or harsh, then leave."[/color]

	[color=0C6598]"This is not a refugee camp or a way station - we are not fighting the war on the Surface,"[/color] Erg finished up sternly. He was still holding his gun. 

	Blink had made her way over and she put a hand on Erg's gun, lowering it gently. [color=D48FFF]"They're just kids,"[/color] she told him. [color=D48FFF]"They don't know any better. We're safe. They aren't going to bring people to kill us,"[/color] she said firmly. 

	Sunshine, meanwhile, was a bit annoyed that the attention had shifted away from her and was going over to the pretty girl she had seen earlier in the nail salon. Huffing a bit, she found a loose rock and she started kicking it around. It reminded her a bit of how she first found what she thought of as her minor power - her enhanced accuracy. She had been kicking a rock around like this when one of the older kids on the streets started to call her names.

	She had kicked the rock straight into his left eye. She smirked a bit, remembering the way he had screamed in pain - but more importantly, that no one ever messed with her again. She glanced over at the others around Leighton, noticing that the conversation seemed to be pretty tense and Sunshine decided to wander. She eventually found a crate of board games and she dug through, eventually finding Chutes and Ladders.

	[color=DAF7A6]"Jackpot!"[/color] she shouted, opening it up and setting up. She was about to take her turn when she remembered that she needed other people to play with and she looked around, before her face fell. Everyone else was busy doing other things. She was alone still.
