	Frost International is a Fortune 500 corporation, specializing in largely transportation (building ships and aircraft), though they recently have started to branch out into electronics. They're nowhere near as big a player as say Stark Industries or Pym Technologies, but they have started to make a name for themselves. Emma Frost runs the company, as it was founded by her father, Winston Frost. The relocation of its headquarters to Washington D.C. from Boston happened a few years back, so the building is relatively new and security measures are up to date. From his position across the road, Requiem will be able to see people coming in and out of the building, mostly employees - no one recognizable beyond Jinx of course. 

	Inside the lobby itself, there were security guards sitting at the main desk. In order to enter the building proper, you needed to have the guards open up a set of automatic doors. There are some places to sit, mostly for people waiting to be taken up into the building for an appointment. A fish tank against one wall has a lot of tropical and dejected looking fish, while soft jazz music plays around them from some sort of intercom system. 

	"Hey buddy, you can't stand here," one of the guards told Jinx, waiting to see how he reacted. "Either you've got an appointment or you need to scram, kid."

	Erg wasn't the type to reassure Leighton that her family would still want her. In his experience, humans were cruel whenever they had a chance to be. Odds were, her family would pretend to accept her at best - and at worst, they would call the police on their own child. [color=0C6598]"You are too young to make mistakes, Leighton. Whatever choices you make now can largely be undone,"[/color] Erg reassured her. It was partially a lie. She could make a mistake. She could make herself a target of the Purifiers and get herself killed. 

	Luckily, neither Erg or Leighton got hurt from the shards of the bottle. Erg thought for a moment, before he realized what happened. Leighton froze the bottle so fast that the glass rapidly contracted and shattered. [color=0C6598]"Yes, you did,"[/color] he chuckled slightly. [color=0C6598]"Now let us see if you can freeze a bottle [i]without[/i] creating a weapon,"[/color] he suggested. He found another bottle and set it down, looking at Leighton. [color=0C6598]"Concentrate. Your power is an extension of yourself and your will."[/color][hr][hr][center][h1][b][i][color=935DB8]Veil[/color][/i][/b][/h1][img]https://i.postimg.cc/PrX86Zbm/giphy.gif[/img][hr][hr][b][color=935DB8]Location:[/color][/b] The Mutant Underground - Washington D.C.

[b][color=935DB8]Skills:[/color][/b] N/A [hr][/center]	Veil didn't hesitate to answer Luna's question. [color=935DB8]"Unless it's too graphic for Havok's delicate ears, everyone can hear whatever it is you have to tell me,"[/color] Veil told her calmly. She trusted her team and while she appreciated the value of compartmentalizing information and keeping secrets, her gut was telling her that everyone would benefit from hearing whatever Glimpse had to say. And knowing these people, they'd pester her and ask what Glimpse had been here about anyways. It would save time to just get it all out in the open right now. 

	[color=B0B4B0]"Trust is earned,"[/color] Colossus agreed, having heard Sapphire's comments about Glimpse. He crossed his arms slightly, a clear sign of him closing himself off at least emotionally. 

	[color=FAFD95]"Like hell do I trust her!"[/color] Havok snapped. [color=FAFD95]"Just because your aunt is Psylocke and your father is Captain Britain, it doesn't mean you're a good person,"[/color] he was glaring at Glimpse and Veil sighed slightly. She knew that it was dumb to trust a person after just meeting them, but she felt that Havok was intentionally acting harsh towards Glimpse. Sapphire she knew didn't trust anyone, so that wasn't surprising. 

	[color=935DB8]"Guys, trust her or don't trust her, it's your choice - but it's also your choice as to whether or not you give her a chance to earn that trust,"[/color] she told Havok and Sapphire, more or less giving them a warning. At least Spark Plug was acting nice towards the visitor and she gave Spark Plug a nod, acknowledging her words. 

	Over by the kids, Negasonic took her phone away from her ear. Stretch hadn't picked up to answer her call. She glanced up at Moonwalker as he brought over the food, thinking for a few moments. [color=E33B19]"Your name - do you just really love Michael Jackson?"[/color] she asked him, actually making eye contact and not looking at her phone for once. It was a rare occasion. The kids were happily eating their way through the food that Moonwalker had carried over to them. Most of them seemed to have already adjusted to this new location - and given that they lived in a shelter, it wasn't surprising that they found the new surroundings easy to come around to.

	Sunshine paused for a moment, considering James' request. She [i]did[/i] owe him a favor, but asking her to stop tormenting Tome was a big ask. Sure, there was definitely a psychological analysis explaining why she felt the need to lash out at the naive magical mutant, but she didn't care. All Sunshine knew was that she got a little spark of joy each time she shot her mouth off in Tome's direction. [color=DAF7A6]"...Fine,"[/color] she then said, rolling her eyes. [color=DAF7A6]"I'll leave him alone, but the second we get back to the tunnels, I'm smacking him in the face with Fred,"[/color] she explained. [color=DAF7A6]"Fred's the rat."[/color]

	[color=D48FFF]"Maybe we should just get the new generators, we probably don't have much time before security shows up,"[/color] Blink pointed out. They were pushing their luck as it was. However, Stretch was already going around grabbing the parts in the locations that James had managed to figure out. [color=D48FFF]"Alright, let's go get those generators, think Stretch has grabbed most of the parts for repairs that were on this level. I don't think we should go down to the basement though, that would really be pushing our luck..."[/color]

	[color=DBA1DE]"Come on, Lollipop, let's go get it,"[/color] Casper said, motioning for the kid to hurry up and come on over to him. Ben was just sort of trailing along after him as Casper went over, trying to find where this generator was. He didn't really know what a generator looked like, so he essentially was just trying to find something heavy and fancy. Ben wasn't much help, just sort of doing the same process as Casper and shrugging slightly, before Ben decided to just perch on some shelves. 

	[color=DBA1DE]"Come on, Ben, help! Pull your weight!"[/color] Casper complained. 

	[i]"I'm a ghost, I have no weight to pull,"[/i] Ben pointed out. 

	[color=DBA1DE]"...Smart alec!"[/color] Casper criticized. Sunshine walked past him, dead rat in her hand, and she eventually managed to find the generator, pointing at it. [color=DAF7A6]"It's this one,"[/color] she told Casper. Blink hurried on over to them, opening up a portal back to the Morlock tunnels. Together, Casper and Sunshine lifted the generator off of the shelf and put it through the portal. Blink then closed it. 

	[color=D48FFF]"Generator is back at the tunnels,"[/color] she announced. Sunshine was opening up the dead rat's mouth, trying to see how many teeth it had. [color=D48FFF]"Tome, let's go and..."[/color] Blink started to stay, before she cursed under her breath. The doors opened up and in came three security guards, flashing their lights around. 

	"You're trespassing, put your hands up!" one of the guards snapped. They all had guns up as well and currently, they had only spotted James.
