(Hey boys and girls - if you want interaction between another person’s mutant, let me know and we’ll work out a way to do it. You can just talk with them, or I can write it if it gets a little complicated, as I’ve done with this post. Also, sorry for the length

Zoe hopes she's going in the right direction

The island of Genosha lies two hundred and thirty-seven miles off the south coast of India. Zoe had memorized this fact without much thought in her prep work; it was just one more piece of useless information. As the sun set to her left, she wondered how many miles she had yet to go. When the last scarlet pinpoint had disappeared, she stopped swimming. Probably best to tread water until she could orient herself by the stars

Crap, another dead end…

I had made it to California without too much trouble. I looked around for an Erik Lensherr with humans, and for a Magneto or Magnus in the mutant underworld, which was hard enough to find in itself. Most of them were too scared to even show themselves in public. They were not proud of their mutant heritage, they were weak. I sighed, it couldn’t be helped since they didn’t have a leader to show them the truth, that they were better and could achieve so much more. That would all change soon enough.

As I began to exit the run down building where I questioned yet another batch of mutant hide outs, someone beckoned me over.

“Hey kid, you looking for Magneto?”

I nodded, I overheard his name from another mutant before, it was Toad.

“Well yah didn’ hear this from me, but Magneto had a secret base in New York. Where exactly I can’t tell yah, but if yah ask around in the underground there you can bet yer ass you’ll find a lead.”

“Thanks, I’ll keep that in mind.”

Looks like I’m off to New York. Now how to

Redirection

The situation has changed... and it has done so in mid-air.

We had been airborne maybe twenty minutes when Beast got an automated message from the mansion's security systems, raising hell about someone in the basement facilities. No ID on the intruders, though, and we were already too far into our plan to crush the camp upstate when we got word. I just hope they leave poor Douglock alone; he couldn't put up a proper fight if he wanted to. Or maybe he could; I never can remember which facilities have access to which computer systems. But knowing Douglock, all he'd need was a phone jack to get drone guns in every hallway

This is intense...

I called Rogue and told her my situation, and her odds. My odds. I told her I was a mutant too. And instantly, she softened. Before this, she always seemed to be cold and critical, questioning our every move with her case. I know she didn't trust us. I have no idea why she chose to use the law to deal with the FoH. Maybe she thought it was the best way to hide. Nonetheless, she didn't seem too keen on coming to NYC. Understandable. She sure made her point as to why I shouldn't be there, but then said she'd think about it. I'd give her a week to decide or I'll just go back to Chicago. For some reason I just can't seem to shake this place. I need to stay. I need to help somehow. I'm gonna go out for awhile this afternoon, see what I feel, what I hear. I'll stick to the side streets, maybe that'll be safer...I honestly have no idea. I do wish Rogue was here. She does seem to know more about this whole mutant conflict and its history
