"What the hell am I supposed to do with this...? Why would I replicate this thing? What the hell...? This is not what I meant by telling him to be a fucking hero...the guy is so...hell, he's gonna' get on my nerves all the time, isn't he?" Wrapping his fingers around the hatchet, Casper couldn't help but frown at it as Alex stormed off. Moments later Alison weaved her powers in an impressive fashion, sporting her abilities for all to see. For a moment, it stole Casper's attention but he was quickly back in the fight with his eyes returning to the large robot peering down at them. Alex stormed off without a plan whatsoever, and gave the smallest guy in the group a freaking axe to fight with for God knows what reason, Alison tried to hinder him from getting killed and the others were still trying to figure out what they were going to do. As for Casper, he was out of his element because he was out of a firearm. He was probably not the only one that had some requirements for his powers to be effective. Some of the others probably couldn't do much without some kind of resource either. If this was indeed a test, it had put them all on the spot and only a few of them were able to add anything to this. If this wasn't a test they would all get killed if they didn't manage to escape. Escape, that appeared to be the only thing they could do at this point.
"A plan's good, but standing around isn't...we need to spread out. Clustered together we're done..." Keeping a levelled head was critical in a situation like this. If a person was of no use in this specific moment, at least they could try to not to get killed. Captain Reckless Native at least decided to do something and getting a means to bail was first priority. There were probably keys on the teachers and that appeared to be the only way out, as it was.
Casper dashed away, seeing how the robot had its eyes on him scurrying away. If everyone did the same, finding a target would be difficult and they would all get a chance to leave unharmed. They just needed to think clearly. What about the observation room? Was no one seeing this? Was no one going to stop this? The large glassed in room was still undamaged and the fact that no one came to their aid made Casper believe that this was indeed a test. Otherwise the place would be storming with powerful mutants right about now. This was the home of the X-Men, wasn't it? They wouldn't let this happen. There was no way in hell a robot
that large could just sneak up on the school and wreck havoc without being stopped by an array of powerful warriors. This had to be a test, there was no other explanation. However, that would bring Casper's eyes back to their teachers. Were they actually dead? Were they also robots? Something had to be there to trick the minds of the students into believing that their teachers had been crushed and disintegrated.
With hatchet still in hand, Casper tried to consider what he could do. Getting to the observation room was a no-go, obviously. The only way out was locked and shut, and the only mutant in the group capable of getting out of the room in the most effective way was the Russian girl. Speaking of effectiveness, that robot was going to attack again. If they could use the robot's strength against itself, they could have it destroy the walls enough to allow the students an escape that way. That approach would however require them to unify their powers in an excellent way as it was incredibly risky. None of them knew each other well enough to manage such a synergy yet. For now, the best idea appeared to be that locked door. If anyone had the key, it had to be Pierce because he seemed to be the one running the show, at least before he was crushed to pieces.
