Summery of post wink
Eric (Magneto) wishes to stay hidden, and has employed the services of Tessa (Sage) to be his face in the world. He asks Derrik to start a new team.
New Team Roster:
Derrik
Lark
Antonio
who's next...
Hellions A new Team emerges...
He only managed to take a few steps before Gideon escaped his grasp and returned to the fray in time for the strange people to reveal all of the Mutants wrong doings including something that was called Genosia. Though this meant nothing to Antonio, it obviously meant something to the rest of the students, because everyone started to freak out. Bella Started to emitted a high pitched noise and cried. Derrik Tried to help her but then left. Evie began to attack Gideon, actually pushing Antonio out of the way to get at the other man, her teammate. "What the hell is wrong with you people?" He said stepping back. He opened his mouth to try and say something that could help the situation, but nothing came out, he had not words of support. Just anger at the people he saw in front of him, and their actions. "You know what screw it I am out of here." He said before turning around and walking off, trying to get as far away from the school as possible.
He was tired of trying to play the nice moderator, the supportive teammate for this group. He was fed up with the drama. He had not come to school by choice he was sucked there by fairy dust and then forced on the team that gave therapy a whole new meaning. Now all of this would have been fine, but the team refused to try and work together, in fact they refused to do any sort of team building exercises either melting the equipment or just leaving. As a whole the students were really juvenile and in need of something to wake them up, and Antonio was not sure that he wanted to be around when that happened. Actually if it was not for Lark he would have already been gone, but he had promised himself a long time ago that he would not just leave without letting the woman he was with know. He might not be the most series person when it came to relationships, but he did have some morals.
He had no idea how long he had been wandering through the trees, all he knew was that he had not been paying attention to where he was going, and he had no idea where he was at the moment. Normally he would have tried to jump into the air and get his bearings, but he was too mad to focus long enough to use his ability. Muttering darkly under his breath he continued to stalk through the forest, eventually he would find his way back to the school, or some where else, at the moment it did not really matter to him, he just continued his wanderings, letting the dark thoughts continue to swirl around in his mind.
“My dear child, it would seem that you need an ear."
Antonio snapped back to attention when he heard the voice, it was not one that he recognized, but perhaps it was one of those strangers who came to the school, antonio was in the mood for a good fight. Without thinking of the consequences, antonio set of at a run towards the voice.
Well there were good things and bad things about following the strange voice, mostly bad. For instance, he managed to not only find his way back to the Academy, but to a crying Derrik, not the sort of thing he wanted to deal with at the moment. Oh Yeah and there was the man who was standing beside Derrik, who obviously was the reason that Derrik was crying. Letting his rage flow through him, Antonio stormed over to where Derrik and the man were standing. "And just who the **** are you?" He demanded his hands tightening into fists in preparation of a fight.
************
Lark didn't know what to do with herself. She knew what ever had just happened was none of her business and was well before her time at the school. So she didn't come back to the ground with everyone else, she would take this awkward moment to view her surroundings. She was curious and knew nothing of the area. As she flew over the city she saw Derrik.
Now she wasn't mad if Derrik kissed Antonio, and she wasn't mad at Antonio if they did either. If they did... well she hoped to see more of it. The thought was kind of hot. But she wanted to know for sure. So she could pretend to be mad for a while. What was the fun in not being upset right?
As she started to descend to the ground, she quickly started fluttering back up to the sky. An older man had approached and had sent the vandilized trash can back up right. Healing it... per say. Lark was confused by it, but Derrik seemed to have some invisible comfort in the hand on his back. She knew Derrik had to know him, which meant it would be safe to land. Or so she thought.
No sooner had her feet hit the ground, did sidewalk crack and metal pipes ripped from the ground, wrapping around her tiny frame, lifting her into the air. When she looked over to her side she saw Antonio caught in the same mess she was in. "They friends of yours?" Eric asked, turned towards her, his hand extended.
Derrik nodded. "She is... something. Let her go Eric... And he is..." Derrik blushed slightly. "a friend too." Wow... had these two showed up...
Eric nodded and the pipes and wires were sent right back to where they had come. He went over to her and started to dust her off. Lark's blushed as his gentle hands moved over her body. "Do forgive me, Lark isn't it? I was just afraid you were the one that had upset my old friend here.
He turned his attention to the other. "My dear boy, your temper will be the end of you. But if you want a name, I don't hide that. My name is Eric."
Lark was a little stunned. "Im fine thank you." She retorted to him. "You kissing older men now, Derrik?" She snapped at him a playful grin on her face, hinting her remark to Antonio too "Wait... you know my name?"
Eric nodded and pointed to the newspaper stand, where the attendant was cowering under his counter. There was the newest issue of Vogue that her picture and name right on the cover. That is you, isn't it deary?"
Lark just smiled at him. "It is, Eric?"
"Yes this is Eric, Lark. He is an old friend, back from Genosha. Eric what the hell are you doing here? Aren't you dead? You died with Genosha did you not?" Derrik seemed more snappy and angered at the man. If he survived... why did he not help so many of them that had not. Magneto was more than strong enough to have done that. Right?
"Oh I do owe you an explanation Derrik. I have come to look for you for that very reason. Perhaps we can all head out to a small coffee shop and sit and talk about things. Perhaps your friend here would like to come with us? Perhaps she will gain some kind of benefit? Derrik... I would like you to gather and head a team of mutants for me. Just like old times."
Derrik was floored. Was he serious? "What?"
"He wants you to lead a team for him! Mr. Eric, right? Derrik here is the captain of the Hellions back at the Academy. If his team still doesn't hate him, Im sure he can pull them all together for you! Shouldn't be hard anyway... something about some mutant there... killed thousands... or millions... or what was it." She stopped ranting as she tried to genuinly remember what had happened.
"SHEILD... set up Hydra... No... HYDRA set up SHEILD... er... Someone sent in a Logan cloan to kill someone on Genosha. Then Magneto attacked them... and they attacked Magneto."
Eric looked at her, surprised at just how dense she was. "Well that sounds awfully dreadful. I suppose this Magneto is rather upset that he was attacked and double crossed."
"I would be! Hell I want want to go find and get Gideon and take care of him myself!"
"Gideon you say?"
"Yeah! I would be! Wouldn't you Derrik!"
Derrik turned to Lark, a rage in his eyes. "I am mad very upset with the Xmen about it Lark. I was a mutant on Genosha. One of the few Survivors..."
Eric gave him a pat on the shoulder, signifying him to stop. "Well Lark... I would think any organization that can openly keep cold hearted criminals protected... would need to be stopped, wouldn't you?"
Lark thought for a second. "Yes... I agree. Evie said something about second chances... I don't quiet understand that, honestly. It seems like Gid's actions killed millions. Are people really entitled to Millions of chances? I mean... if you kill someone are you even entitled to a second chance?"
"No." Derrik stated. "Did she really defend him?"
"YES! I was so shocked its why I left. None of it was really my buisness. And I dont like to get involved. I never gossip." She thought for a second. "Okay I do... but this is to much for me to be involved with. But how can they even allow something like that. Apparently Logan did much the same. Or so Madame Hydra stated."
Derrik just nodded. "Well Lark filled you all in Eric." Derrik scratched the back of his head.
"Oh and Derrik! Did you really kiss Antonio!" Lark immediately ripped to another subject. One she found so much more important, as it involved her.
"Lark... lets discuss that later."
Lark looked to Eric. Seeing that he didn't looked shock... He either knew Derrik was gay, or just didn't care. "Ill take that as a..."
"Yes Lark we kissed..." Derrik said annoyed rolling his eyes.
Lark just nodded. "We..." He drew a connected line between her and the boys, "need to talk. Mr. Eric... Im fed up with the things at the school. All i wanted was some control so I could go back to work."
"I can help with that. Will you join this team?"
"If my dear Antonio here will." She wrapped her arms around him and gave him a kiss on the cheek. Antonio just rolled his eyes.
"I suppose... I never did stay in one place to long, and I do have faith in Derrik."
"Is that all it is?" Lark said amused.
"Not now Lark." Derrik said. "Then we have two members Eric.
Eric nodded, surprised in how easy these things were working out. It seemed it was the right place at the right time. "I will not be seen as your leader, I have someone to do that for me. I am considered and thought dead. It may be best to leave it that way."
A woman walked out of a near by shop and walked to the group. "Oh you started Eric?"
"Indeed I have Tessa."
"Now... how about that coffee."

Magneto convinces Derrik to lead the team, with three other mutants that he had known from Genosha. Magneto's true plan is revealed, A plan of Vengeance. The Brotherhood... assembles... BrotherHood Members: Head(in hiding): Magneto Head: Sage Leaders: Prophet: Leash: Lassos and control's one's astral form Tarot: Sees the future through tarot cards, materializes the images in the card Missy: Control over natural combustion Members: Lark Antonio Quote: Lark looked over at the woman. "And who are you?" She retorted with crossed arms and a smirk. "Oh child... I am Tessa... but to you thats Mrs. Tessa." She smiled and knelt down and tapped the girls nose. Antonio grabbed Lark to keep her from doing something stupid. "They girl... her power is interesting. Metamorphosis. Birds. And a hybrid form? Launches projectiles in that form as well. The boy, the one you don't know... Manipulates gravity." She walked over to him and placed a hand on his shoulder. "Great potential lies in you. You as well Mildred." "It's Lark!" The young model barked back. Tessa rolled her eyes. "Fine... what ever you say sweet heart. Lark." She walked over to Derrik and placed a hand on his shoulder. As soon as he did he felt his powers leave him. "Its okay... Don't worry. They are not gone, just repressed." She turned to the group around her. "All your powers are." Tessa walked back to Eric's side. "Let me introduce myself. My name is Tessa... nothing more is important. If you must have some childish codename as many of you do... I am Sage. My powers are that of an accelerated mind. My mind works on such complex levels I am both telepathic and technopathic. I am able to sense mutants. Read their powers like a book. I can suppress the powers, unlock potential, or jump start them." She raised a hand to Lark who exploded into a flock of small birds that flew around madly above them. She ran a hand through he short hair, before Lark came back together and landed on the ground before them. "I am either a friend or foe." Derrik felt uncomfortable with out being able to tap into his powers and be aware of what was going on. "Ah Tessa, let's not toy with them any longer my dear. Let's tell them more of what we want shalt we?" Tessa nodded to him. The five of them then walked into a coffee shop and once seated with their drink of choice in their hands, Eric spoke again.
"Tessa here was able to inform me of the going on's with Hydra before they headed to your school. As you know without them being Mutants there was little Tessa could do. And with me being well... non-existant I could not just waltz in and make myself known.
I find it in very poor taste that Xavier chooses to harbor the criminal of mutants, give them all these chances. We have seen the devastation that they bring. Someone that could contain such a threat, should not have been denied their ability in the matter.
Xavier is a great friend of mine, but I fear that he is started to corrupt the minds of our youth with these ideals. He keeps company with many that have done such terrible things. Logan doesn't not have a beautiful past, nor does Gideon for that matter. Did you know Rogue has done her fair share of evil? Or Ororo who ruled all of africa as a goddess? This list goes on and on.
I can not and will not force anyone to join me... but I would like for you all to return and bring together those that don't share these ideals. You all deserve better. A world where mutancy is not something that is scoffed at. Where you are hidden away in some large mansion as a form of safety. We need to show the world that Mutants are capable of great things that they are not aware of.
Derrik... I want you to be one of Sentries of my team."Tessa stood to her feet. "I think its time to introduce you to the Sentries of our Brotherhood."
A small group of people walked into the room, and one by one sat among the teenagers at the table. The first was young and beautiful long dark hair. She seemed to be shuffling cards of some sort. Tarot cards. "This is Marie Colbert. She sees the future in her cards... and those cards do so much more."
The next that walked in was a woman with Black hair and pigtails. "Miranda Lampart."
"Leash!" She barked back.
"Leash..." Tessa scoffed. "She can pull out your astral form and then controls it as long as its with in range of her mental lasso."
Then an all to familiar face. A woman with scorching hot red hair, a moehawn. "Well well... Derrik. I knew I would see you again. Do you still not remember me? Missy Davis?"
"Misses Missy Davis." Tessa cooed unimpressed. "Control of combustion." "Derrik will you lead my team? These three will be under your direct orders. You know them from Genosha. They all survived with me, with us."The girl with the long hair played out a spread. "The clock and the tower." He slid them towards Derrik. "You know what that means. We trained together... you can read cards... or do you not need them anymore." Derrik shook his head. "I never need them... They were just a way to channel." "I see... Well the cards tell of a strong movement in the future. Thats us Derrik." Leash smiled and leaned forward to Derrik. "You are in right?" He had trained with her as well. With her leashing of Astral forms... he learned how to release his with little effort. He looked to Missy. Now he had not trained with her. He didn't remember her at all. But she remembered him. "I don't care what ya do." She leaned back and snapped a bubble of gum. "Just don't get in my way and you wont get BURNT!" She slammed her hand on the table and when she moved it, a burnt hand print remained. Derrik looked over to Lark and Antonio, before turning back to Eric to answer his question. "I will... We will return to the school. Come back with more." "Good, good. You know what we can do Derrik. You trained with me. Under me. Remember your past.""Any one you recruit... bring them to this address Derrik. Be there at midnight. Not a minute later. We have a base set up but if you aren't there will assume you changed your mind. You understand our situation in this matter?"Derrik nodded and looked over at Lark and Antonio. "Okay you two. Lets get home." The three left the shop and headed home. "Gideon will pay my children. That I swear.""It almost seems wrong to be using Derrik like this though Eric." Marie spoke softly. She had been a good friend of Derrik, both training with Destiny. "Kiddo... you do whatcha gotta do. Derrik ain't no dummy. He knows he'd be better off with us anyway." Missy laughed as she stood up, the air around her wavering as it started to heat up. "Can I do it now gramps?" Eric stood to his feet. "No my dear. Now is not the time for foolish games. If you want to leave your calling card, one must do it a sophisticated way. We are not the same old Brotherhood." He held out his hand towards the door. The metal in it ripped the door apart sending it flying. "We will have our revenge!"

Team One:
Grab and Snatch
Derrik
Brian
Shandra
Lark
Aaron
Siona
Forellen
Team Two:
Distraction:
Lead by Cissa and Anna
Everyone not mentioned is on Team 2
"Team two will be a distraction team. They will enter in first, enter clumsy. loud. Draw all attention to yourself. You have to fight anything thrown at you as long as you can. Don't worry about the schools defenses. They will be taken care of."
"Derrik come here." Derrik nodded and walked over to her. She placed a hand on his shoulder, sending him straight into a premonition. She grabbed his coat tail and was dragged in with her. Gideon was going to be in his room. Packing his bags to leave. Perfect.
"Team one... your to snatch Gideon. He will be in his room preparing his own escape. That means they are onto us we need to move as soon as we can. Aaron as we approach you create a fog that would make Storm wet herself. Give the distraction team a cover. Give the distraction team time to explode, and get the attention of the school. Aaron you will then clear who ever is left in the hallway."
"Shandra, trap Gideon in his room as soon as you can. Before the distraction if you can. You will need to allow Forellen to get in and out to fire her poison. Brian will lower friction on anyone approaching to keep them at bay. Shandra will hold Gideon in a bubble until he drops. Lark will carry Gideon to me. Derrik will keep an eye out for any unexpected surprises."
Why was Siona to be with this team? Aaron was going to loose himself. That in itself was going to be a second distraction to allow for their departure. Siona would need to snap him out of it. "Siona you will do your thing to keep this team safe."
