Daken felt back to normal come the middle of the night and started stretching in the pool storage cupboard. Before the sun had even risen properly he had already made his way out across the pool area and towards his car. He thought about Laura and his new blood Malik. Oh was his father going to be pi**ed that he had missed his son. That brought a smile to his face. As he entered the front of the mansion he saw a kid sat by the side of his car looking tired, with one case open on her lap fiddling with something inside. Another two rested by her side. It was the same kid that he had nearly ran over. As they made eye contact he realised that she was on a lot of caffeine, even her pulse was faster than it should have been. "Kid... I need my car."
She smiled to him and spoke so fast he couldn't understand her. "Whoooaa! Slow down!"
The kid (Ziggy) smiled and a bit of colour came to her face as she took her beanie off put her fingers through tangled hair and then put the orange beanie back on. Taking a steadying breath Ziggy spoke again, this time what seemed to her so slow a sloth could understand her. "I said.... your not going until Malik and Laura get here... Your off on a mission with them. You had better take better care of my boyfriend than you did the last time."
She closed the case she was working on and looked at him with a determined look. She stood up, placing the case on the floor next to the others. Then picked up one of the others with a tag marked 'Daken' and offered it to him. He took it frowning a little. "I didn't know what to pack you, so I packed you the basic survival stuff plus a similar device to Malik's. It's a bo stick which packs a spark. In the trunk there are also three bags with provisions for a week if needed. Enjoy."
She leaned against the car carefully as Daken opened his case and looked at the devices inside, he raised an eyebrow at the scrawled note. Ziggy held onto the two other cases giving them to Laura and Malik when they arrived. razorGundam-Guyver

Razor "To be honest... I don't even know what I'm doing..." ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Razor walked into the room almost as early as Daken. He could hear their conversation in the other room with his newfound powers, but he didn't much care. The last night had been horrible. He had no idea why he had the dream he had, but it had nearly killed him. Literally, he somehow felt like he had almost died in the morning. He looked around the room and sighed. He thought this was going to be fun, but it just wasn't. The suit was on though, so he was ready. Nothing too serious. Just a whole lot of saving people, what he should have been good at. Sucks he wasn't. When he arrived, anyone could know he didn't have that great of a night. There was still some dried up blood under his nose, there were bags under his eyes, and he was a little pale. Still, he would smile his normal big and goofy smile, prancing over to Daken and Ziggy. "We ready to go galavanting? Adventuring? Revenging? What should we call this mission?" He asked, sniffing the air (because he did that now). He smelled pancakes. That sort of pissed him off, because pancakes were his favorites. "Ziggy... What're you doing here? You aren't coming with us, are you?" Other Information:AppUpgradeTrackerVoice Example

Babysitting duty was, to put it mildly, not Laura's usual job. Raised as an assassin, her idea of making someone behave was as likely to stab them as it was to... well, do just about anything else. Basically, causing someone seriously bodily injury was always on the table for the female clone of Wolverine.
Still, Charles Xavier likely had his reasons so when she was asked to report to the garage to join Malik and Daken, the girl did as asked.
Stepping into the room, she let her gaze fall upon the three people gathered before moving, wordlessly, over to grab the case proffered by Ziggy. Her fingers found the opening and in moments she was looking through it. Seeming satisfied with her quick inventory of the package, she closed the case and turned to face the rest.
Arching an eyebrow at the assembled group, she turned to face Ziggy. "Your... boyfriend will be fine." X-23's hearing gave her plenty of advantages, one of which was hearing conversations she wasn't technically present for. Returning her attention to the other two, she pointed at the vehicle. "We're going. Daken's driving."

Ziggy frowned at Malik as he came in looking exhausted.
"No... I'm just the techie. Got case for you too. I finished your Gen-X gaget. The Professor had me working on a few other things over night to make sure you were all fine."
As Laura walked in she looked to her and smiled at the reassurance. Meanwhile, Daken had lounged himself against the side of the car in a pose that resembled his father a little too much. Arms folded, one leg bent at the knee resting the foot on the body of the car with his head lowered slightly. Even he didn't need to see who was coming. Ziggy waved to Malik.
"I'm off to bed."
Daken pushed off from the car and made sure everything was in the boot ready for the journey. Then got in the front after closing it. Ziggy headed back into the building rubbing her eyes. She was going to enjoy the sleep! Waited for the other two to get in before pulling away and heading off. They had a long way to go but at least he was feeling better than he had a few days ago.

Razor "To be honest... I don't even know what I'm doing..." ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ With a couple more rubs to his eyes and a stretch, he'd shrug and get in the car. It was true, they needed to go, but they definitely didn't need to be so upset. This was supposed to be fun... At least this interaction wasn't for nothing. He was actively memorizing the smells of the two people he'd be around. Daken, surprisingly smelled better than Professor Kinney. Not that Professor Kinney necessarily smelled BAD, but it's almost like Daken made it a purpose to smell really good. "So what's the actual plan here? Are we just like... Sneaking everyone out? Because Daken and I saw that they'll do whatever they need to do to get us off their tails... Before you ask, if you were going to, I don't have any ideas. I'm kinda trying to stay out of trouble with the professor, honestly." Other Information:AppUpgradeTrackerVoice Example

"Infiltration and assessment," the young woman said without much inflection to her words as she settled into the front seat beside Logan's son. Leaning away from him, she let her arm rest on the edge of the window and laid her cheek in her palm. Glancing into the side mirror and looking at the boy in the back of the vehicle, she gave a soft sigh, realizing he may not know exactly what that meant.
"We find our way in, gather information, then determine how to exfiltrate. That might mean today or it might mean leaving on our own and coming back later." It was hardly the most comfortable of scenarios. Most people went into rescue missions with the idea that they would be accomplished immediately. Unfortunately, as soon as possible hardly meant that, rather it often meant days or weeks if the subjects weren't in immediate danger of death.
"If Daken or I say we leave, we leave."

Daken didn't anything until they were further out of the mansion grounds. Being part of this he knew he needed to help the kid and he knew his sister would be angry that the projects had started up including on her brother. The chit chat of Razor though was .... frustrating. He partly preferred it when the kid was grieving and ignoring him. At least then he had piece and quiet.
"We do what we need to do."
What that meant could be interpreted in many ways including anything from kill them all to look and run away. The latter was not in his life though. If this meant no more spawn of his Ba****d father then all the better.
He was a little shocked when he was given permission to tell them when to get out of there. For all he knew they were about to walk straight into a trap. Then they would end up with three of the same kind yet all so different. Returning his eyes back to the road, he made sure the sat-nav was pointing in the correct direction. At least for a time they would be able to drive safely, the person who had owned this car was dead and buried in a cave so that would take the authorities a while to locate and realise the owner's vehicle had been taken. If they got pulled over, wouldn't be an issue. It was almost like a joke... and he smiled slightly at the though. 'Three clawed people driving in the car... the cops pull them over and....' Well the ending would be not pleasant for the cops at the very least!

Razor "To be honest... I don't even know what I'm doing..." ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ The somber response from the two Professor Logan spawns left him unable to retort. They were pretty straightforward and open about the seriousness of this mission. Honestly, it was a gamble by Professor X to send him here. He was nowhere near trained enough for this. Razor had no intention of dying, but he definitely saw the risk in him being there. That made him shrug, realizing he likely shouldn't be a burden to everyone around him, or else it'll get them all to hate him. He knew some of them did, but he didn't want them all to. "Okay... Well, just wake me up whenever you feel like you should." He'd say, laying his head against the window. The dream last night gave him some hint to what today was going to be like as far as his day went. It was going to be ungodly levels of stressful and tiring. He needed all the sleep he could get. It was likely obvious to the two that he had a bad night the night before. He could take a break for right now... These two didn't need a morale booster.

As the rest of the car lapsed into silence, Laura didn't bother to add anything. Razor drifted off in the back and Daken was driving, which allowed the clone to turn her gaze to the window and watch the terrain slip by. The space felt cramped and confining, a far cry from what was on the other side of the car's glass. There it was open and free, the very reason she preferred her bike to the claustrophobic nature of four doors.
Still, there was something peaceful about getting to simply sit there and watch the world fall behind her. Something that reminded her of the friends she had made. Kiden in particular. A girl wild and free, who could stop time and slip between the raindrops. She had saved her, after a fashion, though they drifted apart after that. Now Laura lived in the institute Logan made his home and felt connected to none of it.
A soft sigh escaped X-23's lips and she closed her eyes. She wouldn't sleep, but for the moment it was easier to try and forget some of the past.

Eventually they got to an area filled with trees, but it didn't smell that fresh. There was something off, something rotten! Following the satnav he pulled off the road onto a worn road with ridges the size of digger tyres. He knew that he wouldn't be able to get too far with the car he was in and so moved off the track and through a load of trees.
"On foot from here."
He stopped turned the car so that it was tucked further into the trees but with possible easy access to getting back onto the road if it was required in a hurry. Turning the engine off he took the satnav and zoomed out, his nose still hating the smell and then he frowned.
"Explains it... we are headed for Gomi... Landfill...."
He showed it to Laura before shaking his head. It was just typical that it was going to stink... this whole mission or revenge was going to be bad for the three of them. A slight smile came to his lips.
"This stinks!"

Razor "To be honest... I don't even know what I'm doing..." ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Razor woke up to where they needed to be. The place was an offense to his senses. His eyes burnt, he felt like there were rotten bananas being caressed on his tongue, and nose was filled three week old milk. The stench itself woke him up. He'd hurriedly get out of the car and crouch for a moment. He needed a second to make sure he wasn't going to vomit. The joke made by Daken forced out a labored chuckle in between heaves. "How in the hell do you guys deal with this???" He'd ask pleadingly. He'd smelled the boy's dorm side, but it didn't even compare to this. He'd stand and put his hands on his head to ward off the vomit coming. His eyes were watering and he looked even more sickly than before. This was something that he would not have fun doing at all.

"Kill enough people as a child," the young woman stated as she got out to join the others, seemingly unperturbed by the odor, "And you get used to unpleasant smells." With a steady walk around the vehicle, she opened the trunk and pulled out the gear they had been given before they left the mansion. She wasn't sure how much it would be needed, but being prepared was always better than not.
She didn't say another word as she started in the direction of their target, making sure to keep her body a bit low without actually crouching. This would make them harder to spot, but not slow her down. That part would come later when they actually got to their destination and more caution would be required.
With the image Daken showed her in her mind, Laura knew the direction they were heading in. Years of training as an assassin would keep her orientation, and time spent in the wilderness ensured she could slip around anything in their path without getting lost. She just needed to remind herself not to lose the others.
After all, this wasn't her usual solo outing.

Daken schophed and muttered one thing.
"Spend enough time going after Logan you will get used to it."
He was smiling as he looked to the kid with his DNA and shook his head.
"Focus on one thing."
Moving to the trunk he removed his own case and raised his eyebrows and started to head off after Laura but was no way as stealthy as her. There was some quietness in his pace but knew his sister had the right idea, keep low, keep quiet and keep moving. He wanted to look in the case but now wasn't the time. For now they needed to get nearer. The smell was getting stronger which meant they were getting closer. His eyes scanned the area keeping watch for any movement.
His ears keeping tabs on both Laura and Malik to make sure they were still close enough to him. The closer they got the more he wanted to speed up. The anger at this place even existing was enough to make his blood boil. He hated mutant haters, he hated mutants wanting to keep in human good books but worst of all he hated people who tried to poke and prod a mutant to 'improve' or 'remodel' what was made. That also made him get increasingly frustrated as it was his father that had made his life. He was the one that caused all his hurt and bitterness. He became focused.

Razor "To be honest... I don't even know what I'm doing..." ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Razor raised an eyebrow at Professor Kinney's comment... Weren't they supposed to be removing him from the idea of killing? The idea that he wouldn't be overwhelmed with nausea at the smell of garbage could only be fixed by killing lots of people as a child seemed a little strange to him. He was sure it probably just went over his head, but still. What's the angle here? Is the Professor trying to scare him with Laura? Because nothing could scare him more than experimentation. He wouldn't let anyone else suffer that fate. Even though he wasn't aware of the plan, there was some kind of deep understanding of what needed to happen. Then they were off. Even though he was following suit with the other two, his mind was somewhere else. He was wondering if these newfound powers would go away, or if he would be stuck like this forever. It's not like he was necessarily upset, but he'd like to not get used to it if he was going to lose it... Also, did this mean that he was Logan's son too, since he had Daken's DNA?

The trek was long, cold, and difficult as the trio moved through the difficult terrain. What little civilization had existed where they parked their vehicle had swiftly transitioned into desolate, seemingly untouched vistas. Enhanced endurance kept them moving on their exorable path to the facility. The very thought of calling it that made Laura's skin crawl and she reminded herself often that, while the place certainly wasn't kind, it was hardly the horror she had been raised in.
Their cases weighed them down, but the mission came first and for her part, X-23 didn't even consider complaining. After all, her healing factor meant she wouldn't exhaust and the same thing couldn't be said for the other student of Xavier's present.
Soon the landscape transitioned once more, though most would miss it. Enhanced senses, inherited from Wolverine, aided the girl in spotting actual signs of life and pairing them with the image Daken had given her saw the clone slowing her pace.
"We're getting close."
