Kitty wasn't having the best of days. Her shower water turned cold too quickly, she overslept, and didn't eat much breakfest so she was hungry. It was about lunch time and she was gonna go sit with her new found friend and roommate Magma but she had to walk through the courtyard to do so. Her eyes were on the ground as she thought about the girl and all the damage she was capable of. How it must have scared her to be able to destroy so much. She felt sorry for her.
And then she bumped into someone. Quickly jumping back, she looked over. "Oh my gosh, I'm so sorry!" She said, looking up at the tall man.

Gabriel Summers sat there on a bench in the middle of a courtyard, practising levitation. He was trying to lift up himself, but strangely enough, he couldn't. Perhaps it was a failsafe system inside him, preventing someone else from using his own powers against him. 'Cool.' he thought. His eyes glowed eerily again as he began to levitate the bench, making it rise about two feet into the air. Any further and he was at risk of being found by one of the teachers, something he couldn't afford to happen, especially since he'd been classed as above an Omega-level mutant. Vulcan slowly set down the bench and decided to go see Professor Xavier, to talk to him about some things. He kept his head down, not wanting to attract much attention. He was quite tall so alas this was difficult to do. After a minute or two of walking, he clashed into somebody else. He looked up, slightly dazed. He didn't recognise the pretty young girl standing in front of him. She began apologising before he cut her off, "Hey it's fine, really, I'm okay...are you alright?" he asked tentatively, not wanting to annoy her or anything.

He was being really nice. She was glad to be in a place that had so many nice people. The X-Mansion wasn't actually as scary as she had thought it to be in the beginning. It was quite nice around here. There was just a lot of pressure on her at times. "Yeah, I'm fine." She smiled, slightly. "I'm Kitty." Putting her hand out for him to shake, she announced herself. This man seemed very nice, she didn't see a problem in talking to him for a few minutes. She wouldn't miss much. Lunch didn't start for about ten minutes anyway.

The girl introduced herself. "It's a pleasure to meet you...Kitty." Vulcan shook her hand firmly but freely, letting her know where he stood. "It's quite nice to talk to someone, I'm quite new around here, in fact...I got here last week. And I'm enjoying what I'm seeing so far." Summers said, smiling. "So then, Kitty, what can you do?" Vulcan said, referring to what mutant powers she had.

"Nice to meet you too." She hadn't gotten his name but didn't mind. She grinned at him as he shook her hand and spoke to her. What a charmer. "Oh, well welcome to the X-Mansion! It's pretty fun around here. Pretty nice place." After he asked her his next question, she nodded, grinning. "I can phase through stuff... for as long as I can hold my breath. Y'know... I'm awesome." A chuckle escaped her lips and she cocked her head at him. "What can you do, oh Nameless One?" She grinned.

Vulcan laughed openly at Kitty's comment. But he was intrigued already. He certainly couldn't phase through stuff...damn that must be cool. He smirked and spoke freely, "Oh I can do a lot of things, to name but a few... I can fly, go into space, manipulate every energy known to the universe and I've just about got the hang of levitating stuff." Vulcan laughed again. For the first time in a long time, he was having fun. "Oh and...my name is Gabriel, Gabriel Summers. Most people call me Vulcan though..." he said as he shifted his stance a little, to a more comfortable position.

"Meh. Those are... alright, I guess." She said jokingly and laughed. "But really that must be cool. I just like mine 'cause I can get out of most bad situations. I'm pretty untouchable." A grin spread on her face. "Oh... are you related to Scott?" She asked. "Cool name. Vulcan. Vulllcan." She repeated to herself just because she felt like it. The name rolled off your tongue. "I like it."

Again, Gabriel smiled at Kitty's sharp wit. "I bet you phase through things when you're embarrassed too, huh?" He asked, kidding. "Yeah, I'm related to Cyclops, I'm his third brother...the youngest, which kinda sucks." Vulcan laughed lightly again. "Well I'm glad you like it..." he said smirking, "...I think its pretty good too. I took it from a book on Roman Mythology. Its good stuff, you should have a read sometime." He just couldn't stop smirking. For his first week, he was getting on well with another X-Man, or rather, X-Woman.

"Maybe, what's it matter t'you?" She grinned, coyly, at him. "Nah, it's cool. I've always wanted a big brother." She laughed, slightly. Her eyes brightened at his next words. "I love Mythology! It's always been one of my favorite things to learn. I never gave up the chance to learn about it." Her eyes flickered, happily. "So what are you up to out here, anyway?" She grinned.

Vulcan listened intently to everything Kitty said. By all rights, she was more experienced than he was. Sure, he may have been more than an Omega-level mutant, but, in an alien place such as this, it helped immensely to have friends and Kitty was fast becoming one. Gabriel smirked at Kitty's last question, and went on to explain, "Well, I might as well show you, you're here anyway now..." he said and began to call up that familiar feeling of his mutant regen. Carefully, he focused on Kitty and slowly levitated her about two feet high off the ground. His eyes glowed eerily as usual, but he didn't care, besides, he needed to focus on making sure he didn't drop the young woman standing before him. He kept her there for a moment before gently placing her back on the ground. His eyes stopped glowing as he discontinued his power use. He hoped he had not offended her; most people he did that to often got angry, mostly because they didn't like the feeling of being out of control.

As Kitty was lifted off the ground, she held out her hands as she stumbled, and looked down at the ground. A smile spread widely across her face and she chuckled. "Ahhh! Wow, this must be a lot of fun to play around with." That power seemed awesome. He could probably hurt a lot of people with it, too. As he gently placed her back on the ground, she grinned. "Thanks, that was fun."

"No problem..." said Vulcan, pleased that the girl wasn't angry or annoyed. A smile slowly spread across his face. "So Kitty, what are you doing now?" Vulcan was already thinking out his next steps, Maybe he would go to the danger room and practise a little, or maybe he would have lunch, he didn't know yet.

"Here in a few minutes, I'm gonna go have lunch with my new roommate. She's really sweet. The people around here call her Magma, I think. She can destroy a city... actually, she has. She's pretty self-conscious about it." She thought about the poor girl. Felt sorry for her. "Anyways. What are you gonna do?" She asked, actually curious to find out.

An incredulously look broke out on Vulcan's face. "Wow..." he said, "...I didn't think there would be anyone here who could destroy entire cities...and she's your friend?" Vulcan chuckled lightly "In that case then, I don't think I'm ever going to get on your bad side." Vulcan exclaimed, only half-jokingly. He didn't really have a response to her last question, he himself hadn't worked out what he was going to do yet. "Ahh, I don't know, I might head to the danger room actually, I feel like exercising my powers.." Vulcan said as he smiled again.

She giggled. "Nah, she doesn't want to do it. I feel really bad for her, actually. She gets very sad when she thinks about." Trying to change the subject from feeling remorseful, she grinned and joked with him. "But you should still watch out for me! I'm a hellcat, don't ya know?" His answer actually kind of felt like a suggestion. Or at least that's how it coined in her head. You should go with him, y'know? You could use some practice. She told herself and smiled to him. "Think I could come with you?" She asked, batting her lashes, jokingly.
