John watched Jack thrash around, eventually getting weaker when he shook his head and released his grip.
"No... not again..."
He stood and backed away from him. Jack rolled onto his front locking his eyes with Johns.
"Get out of here."
Jack nodded nerversly quickly rising to his feet and flying away on his bike. John slowly turned to face the students. The sweat was still dripping from his face, the adrenalin was going and it hit him. He spent all his energy fighting. He slowly walked back toward the mansion, but after a few steps stumbled and fell. John was exhausted.

Darius turned back to himself and, but his shirt back on and looked once again down at the yard. John seemed quite exhausted by the fight with Jack, he seemed quite weak Darius thought yet he knew that no one was to be under estimated.

Darius dropped down to a balcony from where he entered his own room, from there he walked into the hallway to see what he could do today.

Kim immediately rushed to Johns side, after seeing him drop to his knees in exhaustion.
"Hey big guy...you okay?" she said quietly, dropping down t her knees beside him.

"Tired... just need a rest..."
He slowly got up and stumbled up the steps toward the mansion and went to the living room falling onto the couch.
"Just give me a few hours."
He lay facing the back of the couch closing his eyes.

Icefire saw the fight end was slightly disappointed. He wished more had came. But then again....he made for the Battle Room. His fight with the biker had exhilrated him and he decided to take out his excess energy out on the combat simulation. As he passed Margaret, he had a half mind to ask her if she would like to join him, but he decided to avoid the struggle for words.

Kim left John to himself. Best to give him the time he needs to recup.
"Okay kiddies. Funtimes over. Go back to whatever it was you were doin' Give John some rest. Do not disturb him"

She turned on her heels to see Icefire heading off towards the sub-basement elevator.
"Hey kid...where you goin?"

Icefire turned to the woman and said, "The Danger Room." He then continued his path.

Kim sprinted ahead of him and stood her ground.
"Listen, because Xavier and the rest aren't here doesn't mean you can flaunt the rules. No-one goes in there without supervision."

"I'll be fine," Icefire said. He was so tired of people telling not to do this, not to do that.

"I´ll supervise him.... all tough I wouldn`t believe he needs any yet, if you think either of us are capable doing these things then why don`t you join us?"

Darius said as he came to them with a smiek on his face.

"It's not about wether I think you can or can't handle it." Kim said, exasperated after the past events.
"It's about you flaunting off and thinking you can just do whatever you want to with Xavier not around to kick your ass"

When he was left alone he stared at his hands.
"Never again. I've done my killing."
He sighed heavily and turned onto his back falling asleep.

Margaret saw the three talk and come with an idea. Walking up to them she suggested. "John, maybe we could go to a pool or something, it would be nice. What do you think?" Margaret turned beet red, it was proberly obvious to most, how she felt about him.

He turned to Margaret and was thinking of accepting her offer. But his nerves failed and instead he said, "No, I need to work on my mutant skills a bit more. And besides." He turned to Sol. "Logan lets me go on it. Just as long as I don't raise the difficulty level outrageously high, which I won't, or screw up the equipment or something stupid like that, I really don't see a problem, training. What if some rogue human army attacks this mansion and it turned out that you needed me to do something that I couldn't do because I hadn't worked on yet?"

Margaret lowered her head a bit. "Oh, ok." and quickly walked out of the room feeling tears coming to her eyes. So, ok she could get emotional some times, she was 18. But she really wanted, and expected Icefire to say yes.

Darius shrugged at Kim`s comment.

"It is not that I do not respect the doctor, but things can get extremely boring..."

Darius said as he headed for the danger room.

"Come on kid..."

He said to Icefire all tough Darius was 4 years older than him.
