Monet St. Croix had never been to this school, but had heard about it oh yes. She had read everything she could get her hands on about the school and it's founder Charles Xavier, but she had been placed in the Massachusetts Academy. Emma Frost's school that was at the time a secondary school for mutants. She had disliked it from the start as well as it's headmistress. After the bombing that closed Emma's academy Monet did many other things. While hiding the fact she needed training in her telepathy.
She never showed this weakness to Emma, but she was sure Emma had known. No matter how hard Monet tried hiding it she was sure Emma had felt this weakness. It was the driving force for Monet's hatred of the woman, but now she needed to know if her telepathy could get stronger. The students and faculty would hear a sudden sonic boom as M flew by hidden by clouds. She circled above the school slowing down and gliding to the ground to stand in front of Xavier's monument. She stood there like a statue of a young black woman dressed in her former X-Corporation uniform.
Which was black with tiny lines of red piping and red X's on each upper arm and two on the raised collar. Her hair long and flowing to her waist.

Mimic had left the Xmen very briefly to do a couple other things and take care of some family emergencies. His, so-called, vacation was cut short by the tragic news of Xaviers death. Without any delay he had packed up what few belongings he had and headed back to the school.
As he was flying through the air, a lot of thought ran through his mind. Who was still at the school, how things might have changed and of course seeing that special someone, for whom he cared for so much... Though he wouldn't say it, that was another main reason for returning to the school.... But as he got closer, he heard the sudden sonic boom of another and saw the figure of a young lady landing at the school. He came in for a landing himself and decided the first place he was going was to Xaviers monument....
Upon walking up onto the monument he noticed a young lady was already there.... In fact it was the same person he saw landing merely a few seconds ago. Though he has never met her before he still walked up to pay his respects to Xavier and in doing so spoke to the young lady.... In a low voice, "Hello there.... sorry to intrude..."
((hope you don't mind me showing up at the same time as you))

Monet didn't even bother turning to look at him as she spoke. "You were the one in the sky weren't you?" She brought out a nail file and began filing her nails. "Did you know Professor Xavier? I had always wanted to meet him, I've read everything I could find that he wrote and everything about this school, I'm looking forward to seeing the Danger Room and Cerebra." She finally turned to him not bothering to smile.
"Have you seen them yet?"

Calvin stepped foward a bit still looking at the Memorial... "Yeah that was me in the sky and I was very fortunate to have met the Professor. In fact I owe my life to him, sort of...." He then looked up and turned to her, "and as for the Danger Room and Cerebra, I have spent plenty of time in the Danger Room, but have only seen Cerebra once or twice...."
"I can show you them sometime if you'd like...." He said and then turned his attention back to the memorial

She didn't make eye contact as she spoke again. "I guess that would be fine, but don't try asking me out or anything. I'm here to work and learn under Dr. Jean Grey." She looked to him now before speaking again. "Have you seen Jean I'm told she's responsible for this." She motions to the momument, "her powers were at fault not her I think. I need...."
She couldn't bring herself to tell this boy, she needed help in anything. She knew it would show weakness and that was one thing to she would never show to anyone. "....I want to work with her on my telepathy."

Calvin smiled a bit at her comments, "I promise I won't ask you out. I will try to be the perfect gentleman" he said trying to be funny, but noticed that it didn't work. "... and I haven't seen Jean yet, but i know she is here...." He then looked up at her, pausing for a moment... "I am not too sure what had happened but I did hear that her powers went crazy again and that she was responsible... i can only hope she isn't being too hard on herself about it, but knowing Jean....."

Monet pushed herself up into the air and got into a cross legged indain style position. this was her usual meditation stance, but she was not meditating only getting comfortible. As she floated there about six foot off the ground looking down on him now. "It's an extremely hard thing to get over. Killing the man that was like a father of all the X-Men. Only an amazing woman like her could handle that."

"Well I am not too sure how well she is handling, but she is definately doing the best that she can.... that is all we can hope for." he shook his head thinking about Jean, "I am sure she will be just fine.... as you say, she is a very strong woman...."
He turned to look up at her, "So, other than flight, what else can you do, if you don't mind me asking?"

"Another student named Jubilation Lee or Jubilee as she was called, once said my power was being perfect. But actually I have super human strength and speed though my flight speed is fastest, limited telepathy." She whrispered the word limited hoping he wouldn't hear it and stopped taking a breath and continued, "the flight you know invulnerability if I'm aware of the attack, acute night vision, heightened hearing, and I've been noticing the new power of perceiving mutant auras. So I'm like Cerebro if I'm close enough to the mutant. Also what injuries I do get heal in only a few days."

"Wow.... " Calvin replied sounding impressed, "that sounds like some very interesting powers... Those must have been something to deal with when younger...." He laughed... "And I actually think I met Jubille before, of course it could have been awhile ago..."

Monet looked down on Calvin reading him his mutant aura. The aura was fragmented and shifting wildly. "Hmm are you sure your a mutant? Your aura looks very odd."

Calvin looked up at her, "it might look odd because of my mutant power... I have the ability to copy the power of other mutants that I come in close contact with. And if I stay in their presense for a long period of time, I can kinda store their power forever or until I replace it with another... It is kinda complicated and I am walking around with 5 different mutant powers right now..." He laughed
