Dani may not have been in the computer lab, but Danele Ramos certainly was. And Ramos' father had been in the Spanish military's Special Ops, while her mother had had more than one brother involved in ETA. She may not have been proud of the connection, but the resulting knowledge was certainly useful. Especially now, when her only dependable weapons were fear, deception, and implication.

Turning to a bank of computer monitors, she brought up the satellite interfaces and other communication tools. With just a few taps of her keyboard, she could turn the student computer lab into Subversion Central.

"Alright" Kim sighed "I'm really not getting anywhere with this. But if you want..need to talk. I'm here okay?"

She stood up and headed for the door. "I have something I gotta do. Would you be able to head up to Heaven in say..an hour?"

Icefire watched them take Lucifuge away and retreated to his mediation chamber. God, I needed a good rest once in a whilehe thought after his finished. He began looking at the first person on his list that Magneto gave him. It was a Prelate captain named Titaor, a brother of Nemesis. He looked his name and his location up in his computer and was suprised to see him not too far from the mansion itself. He hastily calculated his mind and estimated he needed at least two weeks to train his team to take Titaor down. He went to the computer labs where Dani probably will be.

He nodded.
"Yeah sure. I'll have to walk down, both my bikes are ruined."
He looked up at her and gave a small smile.
"See you."

"I'll come get you when I'm ready. If I'm right, we'll be bringing someone in for questioning tonight. I'll see you soon, John."
Without another word Tempest headed to the lab area. She needed to see McCoy.

"John you fool... you can't seriously..."
He shook his head and clenched his fists.
"I'll tell her at Heaven."

Dani was pleased at the accumulation of data over the hours. She brought the satellite images of Sinister's headquarters and the tracking data to corresponding scales, forming an idea of where the main corridors were as the prelate walked down them. There were a few significant stopping points - meeting rooms or other places where people, prisoners, or work might be. A substantial change in altitude meant stairs or elevators. And the data kept coming. Finally, one thing gone right.

Icefire tapped the door of the computer lab and said in a soft voice, "Dani, I wish to speat with you." Icefire knew why Magneto was eager to get Apoc's men from the mansion. He wanted them to leave so Icefire could train his team well enough to accomplish his task.

Dani frowned at her screens. "Speak, then," she replied, her voice still frosted with icy control.

Kim walked into the large sprawling laboratory of Dr Henry McCoy, or the Dark Beast as he preferred to be known as. His genius was equalled only by his cruelty and his thirst for power.
There were computer consoles and lab tables everywhere. Vials of various colours of liquid. Test tubes and other equipment used in his torture.
He turned to see Tempest enter the lab.
"Well well. A Prelate coming to visit. With what do I owe this pleasure?"

"Quit with the fake pleasantries McCoy. I need you to run a DNA analysis on something for me." Kim snapped back as she handed him the strands of red hair.

"Certainly officer. Just a few moments." he replied, his voice deep and brusque.

A few minutes passed and one of Dark Beast's consoles sprang to life. The monitor whirring as the data relayed across it. Kim looked at the results, her suspicion had been proven valid. Without a word she stormed out of the lab and back up towards Johns quarters.
Taking a deep inhalation of breath, she composed herself before knocking on his door.

"Well, do you remember me telling you that Magneto has an advanced combat class for you?" Icefire began. "That class is also my team in special operations like this one that I have." He showed her the file of Titaor and added, "They say that he is in Boston, currently guarding a facility that contains a number of mutant prisoners. If we are to kill him and free the prison, I am certain we will have more mutants in our ranks."

John awoke from a short nap and sat up. He threw his leather jacket on and walked to the door. It slid open and John lit up another smoke, putting a pair of shades on.
"Lead the way."

"So..feeling any better? I need you focussed for this John." Kim stated matter of factly. Her voice was now hard and resolute.

Lucifuge nodded.
"Yeah sure, but there's something I need to tell you afterwards."
He stepped and walked with her to one of the cars.

Raising an inquisitive eyebrow she smiled "Okay. But let's get this done."
Tempest got into the vehicle and started the engine up.
Driving off at high speed they made the trip to Heaven in quick time.
Stepping out of the car, she cracked her knuckles.
"I'm gonna enjoy this one." she spoke under her breath.
