[hr][hr][center][h1][b][i][color=339933]Jade[/color] & [color=cc33ff]Guin[/color][/i][/b][/h1][/center][hr][hr] Jade nodded, following along as Edus scooped up the bodies into a bubble and placed them inside an abandoned room. She agreed with the need to be cautious, although the cynic in her could not help but assume that the others would alert the Brotherhood to their presence here quickly enough. Still, the sloppiness of other groups was no reason why they had to behave similarly. [color=339933]"Smashing,"[/color] Jade said quietly in praise, before poking her head outside the room slowly, just in case. There didn't seem to be anyone out there - the coast was still clear. Jade quietly and carefully crept along the length of the hallway, her angel blade at the ready to stab anything that moved, be it friend or foe, she wasn't taking any chances. As she moved further along, she heard voices and Jade slowed down. There were three unique voices, and she held up three fingers, so that way Edus and Thalia would instantly know how much they were dealing with. Fortunately, the voices were becoming more distant, rather than closer - the group was walking away from them, not towards them. Meanwhile, Guin watched as Mary opened up one of the vents and got ready to enact her portion of the plan. For the moment then, she and Cass were in a holding pattern. If someone came along and surprised Mary, they'd have to fight like hell to make sure that Mary had time to do her weird plant magic thing. A part of Guin hoped that no one would come through that door - but another part of her did. There was a part of her that planned on going out today, on this being her final stand. Even if they defeated Magneto, Guin didn't know what was really left for her - she didn't have any plans or ambitions beyond [i]this[/i]. [color=cc33ff]"'Course, it's what I'm good at,"[/color] Guin said back to Cass in a hushed tone, forcing a smile. She really did wish that her mutation was something that let her punch a little harder - something that she could've used to save her family, to save her father. She tried not to dwell on it, but she knew she was the weakest link of the X-Men. Even Carolina who had a similar power didn't have to worry about someone running around with her body - she just became unconscious. It was better than what Guin did, handing the keys of her body over to some stranger.
