So things at the Mass Academy had been a little on the rough side lately. So out of the blue Calvin Rankin, aka Mimic, decided he wanted to get away for the weekend. Since he didn't want to be the loser who went on vacation he invited Valeria along with him. Now some people might say it was because of his feelings for Val that he invited her along, others might say he had a death wish playing hooky with the daughter of "Dr. Doom" but the fact was Calvin enjoyed being with her and some along would be nice for once. After making their plans and packing some clothing Mimic made a little trip through the mansion until Calvin had managed to find Slipstream. After mimicking his ability Calvin opened a portal to Paris and away they went. Of course he had been slightly nervous about their trip, Slipstream didn't exactly have the easiest power to work with but he managed to help them arrive at their destination on the first try.
Now he was walking through the streets of Paris, a duffle bag over his shoulder and a smile on his face. Given that it was night time in Paris Calvin was wearing a dark colored jacket, jeans and work boots. Sure he looked like an American but its what he was. The young mutant had spent too much of his life hiding who and what he was, he wasn't about to hide what country he was from because a bunch of frogs didn't like the decisions his President made.
"Well looks like we made it one piece." he said jokingly to Valeria as he looked around the spectacular city.

"I guess so. Points for you. Maybe some cookies if we bump into a bakery." Valeria smiled back. She was still a bit in awe, she couldn't believe she was in Paris. Well, she could, cause she had been there before, but she always had a parent looming over her shoulders. Now she was here in a romantic city with Calvin. Interesting turn of events indeed. Especially after her little chat she had with Maya concerning him. Of course when he asked if she wanted to go, she jumped at the chance and gave an automatic yes. She could care less about what her father would think. She was 16, she was bound to rebel against the rules. Especially when it came to a guy who she really liked.
"Whats even more awesome, is that we're here during the holidays. We totally have to see whatever lights the neighborhoods have set up. I'm too excited.." she said adjusting her black winter coat that was placed over her white sweater dress. The heels of her black boots clicked against the side walk as she strolled over next to Calvin, dragging her suitcase behind her "Suppose we should check into the hotel and drop our stuff off. What say you?

"I guess so. Points for you. Maybe some cookies if we bump into a bakery." Oh she thought he was joking? That's good at least. If Valeria had realized the possibilty that their atoms could have been scattered across the universe she might not have thought it was so funny. However what she didn't know didn't end up making her hurt Cal.
"Whats even more awesome, is that we're here during the holidays. We totally have to see whatever lights the neighborhoods have set up. I'm too excited.."
He could tell that she was happy based on the smile on her face and the fact that she seemed to be a little more relaxed then normal. Apparently Calvin hadn't been the only one who needed a weekend just to get away.
"You know if I had to guess I'd say that you've been to Paris before young lady." he said jokingly. Given her background and the fact that her dad was loaded it was entirely possible. Calvin of course was here for the first time but it would actually be nice to have someone who was at least slightly familiar with the place.
"Suppose we should check into the hotel and drop our stuff off. What say you?
"Makes sense, I don't exactly want to haul this stuff around with me all weekend." He turned several directions trying to figure out which way they should go. However since he had never been to Paris before, didn't speak French and they had simply teleported here he literally had no clue where they were.
"Um....any thoughts as to where the hotel might be?" he said with a chuckle.

"Yeah, I have been a few times, but I was under parental supervision then. This time I can do whatever I want...."" she replied while digging into her pocket for her cell phone where she had stored the info of the hotel they were to stay at.
"Ritz Paris hotel...that's our destination..." she typed in the name on the GPS system of her phone and showed it to Calvin. "All you have to do is warp us there. Can you handle that?"
