40s

(40s)

Colin exits his early 40's model mustang, one of the few in the world. He closes the door and twirls his keys on his finger as he whistles 'hey mister sandman' while walking up to the mansion door.

Arno exits his BMW 335. He locks it and begins walking inside. "Scarlet, Kasey, Kris, where is dinner?" He asks hanging his hat on the hat stand.

"Watch your mouth you dirty monkey." Colin retorted as he walked past Arno.

"Make it yourself." Scarlet says, walking past Arno, glaring at him as she did. Scarlet no longer had the long red hair people were use to, instead, she had cut it sort, to a pixie cut kind of style. She walked outside and sat in the grass, looking at the sky.

Raven got out of her mercury grabbing her suit cases. Her wolf pup Luna jumped out."Luna! No remember I'm not suppose to have you!" Luna ran up to the door scratching on it."Bad wolf!" Raven picks her up and knocks on the door setting Luna back in her bag.

"Well I'm sorry, I work all day. I expect dinner by 5:00." Arno states walking to the reclining chair, and turning on the Radio. Listening to the Green Hornet. Arno then got up and went to the door. "Ah good, another dame. Come on inside."

"Oi, sweet cheeks. Was that chicken talking smack to my lady?" Drake asked, as he walked over and sat down next to Scarlet.

'work all day.' Colin muttered. "If working all day claims that you were out with those two cent whores on the street, then yeah you should have food. But it doesn't you lazy bum." Colin yells as he walks towards the kitchen.

Raven walks inside and Luna starts running around."Oh I'm sorry! She gets really hyper after car trips.." Raven set her bag down and grabbed Luna."So this is the mutant school?"

"No fooling. Do you want anything? Martini? Coffee? Food?" Arno asks.

"No thank you.." Raven looked a lot different from most women. She had black pants on instead of a skirt and a Halter top with a red bandanna around her neck and black heels. Her hair was down instead in those girly buns.She didn't like the skirts and dresses so she made her own clothing."So where can I set my stuff?"

Wearing a black vest over a white button-up shirt with sleeves folded up near his elbows, black slacks, and brown leather shows, Artemis Step out of his room. Judy Garland's Over The Rainbow plays out, pouring through the hall, cut off by him closing the door. Artemis quickly goes down the stairs, walking into the living room.

"In the Kitchen, that's where you'll be spending most of your time, Doll." Arno said then looked down at her pants. "What's with the pants sweetheart?"

Scarlet laughs quietly, "it's alright Baby, he is just a foolish man with an ugly mug. I don't think a crowd would give a hoot if he croaked either." She says, thinking evil thoughts.

"Alright, but if that booger gives you anymore problems just give me a click." Drake grinned, and intertwined his fingers with hers as they looked out over the ocean.

"I don't like dresses I find them unappealing and plus there only for men's pleasure most of the time.." Raven set Luna down and she jumps on the couch's armrest falling asleep."Now I would be grateful if you can show me to my room.."

Artemis watches the bickering, chuckling as he begins on his way toward the commotion. "Come on now, as long as this creep keeps his paws off you..." He said, looking to Arno. "...You should be grateful such a place exists. I'll show you to it." He finished, chuckling and backing up, beginning back up the stairs.

"I am..So what is your mutation if you don't mind me asking?" Raven caught up with Artemis and walked along the halls with him.

I grin, looking to her as my hair's color runs through a gradient of colors, skin going from it's natural pale to a darker tone, then going back. "Shapeshifting, doll. Might not be as obvious as Arno's ability to make the crowd choke up."

"Ah I see..At least you have a nicer power then me.." Raven hanged her head down as she said that. She still wasn't use to her power, Especially her wings.

"Surely it can't be too bad; Not too many things beat blending in, you know?" He said, chuckling as he stopped, opening a dorm's door. "Here's your room, dish--Ah, that reminds me, what's your name?" He asked, gesturing to the furnished room.

Colin walked into his office and sat down in the old brown leather chair. He began filing paperwork for the newly enlisted mutants.

Arno goes outside and grabs the mail. "Mail time, everyone." Arno yells. He picks up a letter. "Arno Dorian. From the Strategic Homeland Intervention and Logistics Division." Arno opens it up. "HOT DIGGITY DOG! I'M BEING DRAFTED TO THE MILITARY!"

"What ever you say, but I'm sure I could dust off that jerk." Scarlet says in a sweet manor, despite what she had said. She gazed over at Drake with a mischievous glint in her eyes.
