It wasn't surprising that Megan had nightmares ever since that night. She knew other students did, too- although some would never admit it.
She had woken up in a panic, sweating and just barely able to hold in a scream. She couldn't wake up her roommate again- it wasn't her fault, after all. It wasn't the other girls fault that Megan had nightmares about fire and burning and Limbo and Apocalypse and loosing more of her soul...
Megan shook her head. She knew she wouldn't be able to go back to sleep for a while, so she had slid quietly out of her room and made her way into the Rec Room, just wanting somewhere to relax for a bit. It's what she would have done at Xavier's, after all.
She flopped on the sofa, bringing her knees to her chest and resting her head against them. It just wasn't fair...

"Are you alright?" asked the Captain of the Kick Boxing Society and languages teacher of the Massachusetts Academy, he was standing at the doorway, leaning into the arch. He was just having a late night, getting a few things taken care of.
He had been trying to make sure the Xavier students were getting in okay, he could only imagine how long it would be before someone like Logan or Rex or Monet would mouth to one of them or one of them would mouth off to the wrong person and things would explode, but for now, there was peace, except this little one, who appeared to be having some difficulty.

Part of Megan's problem was that she was absolutely terrified of running into Illyana. She knew that she was one of the Hellions... so it was only a matter of time before she saw her. And judging by how their last meeting had turned out... it would be a fight to the death.
She looked up after hearing someone's voice. It was one of the Hellion teachers- Primarch, she thought his name was. Yeah, that was it- he was there when they had the spar that day, too.
"I just had a nightmare." she answered honestly, shrugging a bit. "No big deal, really..."

"Ah....I see." he replied, nightmare could be scary, but at least once they ended they started to fade. But still.....most really bad things were described as "a nightmare" for a reason, they could be pretty terrifying if you let them me. The subconscious was a powerful foe.
"I was about to make myself a sandwich before going to bed....would you like something? Maybe something to drink?" Alex always liked something to eat before going to bed, slept better when he had eaten, and when he was disturbed during the night, he usually wanted something to drink....big glass of milk or something.

Megan only wished that her nightmares would fade one she woke up. But the black streaks that marred her pink hair were a permanent reminder of her nightmares... that and the souldagger which she could summon at will. She couldn't help but wonder if the Hellion knew just what his teammate/student thing had done to her.
"Maybe some milk or something..." she answered with a shrug. When she was younger, her grandmother would always give her a glass of milk when she couldn't sleep. It reminded her of home, to have a glass of milk when she couldn't sleep.

"Sure, I'll get you some." he offered, before stepping into the kitchen. It only took him a moment to throw some left over meat from his dinner earlier in between some bread...and of course add some salad dressing, he didn't eat salad but he liked to get something of a salad into his diet, salad dressing worked.....got a pair of glasses and added milk. Fun times. Returning to the living room he placed the glass of offered milk.
"Has everything been alright since you got here?" asked the languages teacher as he took a seat, before bringing his sandwich up to his mouth. Alexander did enjoy beef...the salad dressing helped too.

Dean wasn't that good a sleeper, not with what had happened to the Xavier institute, Apocalypse had attacked with ease which meant that he could just as easily get in to the academy and Dean knew that the staff knew that as well, that was probably why the X men had been around more recently, more man power around the school than there had been before the attack. Not that Dean was complaining at there being more people in the academy, mainly because some of the girls where cute but that was not the point.
As he reached the end of the hallway where the rec room was he saw that the light was on so he went in to see what was going on in the room and saw Pixie and Primarch sitting in there.
"Oh sorry," he said walking into the room "can you not sleep either?"

Walking out of her room, Lera sighed as she walked down the hallway to the rec room. Things had gotten certainly interesting in the past few days. With the attack on the Xavier Institute she wondered what was gonna happen to the Hellions. Surely there was about to be a lot of screaming and yelling from the X-men and the Hellions. She could careless as long as she was still able to cook. Walking into the rec room Lera sees Pixie, Prim, and Titan, "Can no one sleep in this place?"

"Thanks." Megan responded gratefully, taking the glass of milk from him. She was surprised how nice he seemed... she had honestly thought that most of the Hellions were stuck-up snobs.
She looked down at the glass when he asked how she had been. Part of her wanted to rant about nightmares and being terrified of getting kidnapped and another piece of her soul taken from her, and being scared of Apocalypse and his horsemen and the fact that Famine had called her skills "commendable". There apparently weren't many people out there who could have teleported directly into the base of one of the Horsemen of Apocalypse... anyway, she was digressing.
She had opened her mouth to get ready to say something- What? That she was afraid of being a soulless monster?- when the other two Hellions walked in. She didn't know who they were- she had never fought either against or with them, so she simply just nodded in greeting then took a drink of her milk.

Claire de Reuix walked out of the room that had been provided for her. She was slowly starting to heal on the outside. But inside she still mourned for the lose of the place that had been her home for so long. She walked down into the rec room seeing Pixie. The pink haired woman seemed upset about something, but she knew she better not say anything, since she didn't know her that well. Brushing back her red hair, Claire went to get a glass of milk. Maybe it would help her sleep.
