Kitty set to work on checking the jet. The jet's computer ran a complete diagnostics. Everything appeared to be in fine condition. She was in the process of shutting everything down when she heard approaching voices over the winding down engines.
Christina: Well, the danger room is a training room, basically, for both our powers and physical abilities. We'll show it to you later. But this is the hanger where our jet is usually kept. Oh, well, it looks like they're back.
Kitty walked out of the jet to see Christina and Ave escorting a new girl. But before Kitty could say anything, she was confronted by a growling and literally steaming dragon.
Shadowcat: Hey, Lockheed. Were you a good boy while I was gone?
Lockheed grunted as he continued to vent steam out of his nostrils.
Shadowcat: Okay, I get it... you're upset. But Lockheed, it all happened so sudden. Storm was in trouble, and you know that we didn't have much time to waste. I couldn't just stay away when the others needed our help. I promise you, nothing really dangerous happened there and the next time something does, you're coming too. Okay, forgive me?
Lockheed stopped steaming and gave a small groan. He landed on Kitty's shoulder and gently nuzzled his snout under her chin. Kitty in return smiled and scratched his head as she walked toward the girls.
Shadowcat: Hey girls. So I guess you two are giving the grand tour. *to the new girl while extended her hand* Hi, I'm Kitty Pryde or Shadowcat.

Liz had dissappeared in a puff of smoke just seconds before the three girls walked into the hanger. Before she had left though, she had sent Jack another message Meet me in my office. It's the quietest place we can talk.
Pavati lifted her nose for a moment as she still smelled the smoke from Liz's teleportation, "Teleportation smoke... Mmm. Oh hi. I'm Pavati Aysu. You and Lockheed share a very special bond. It's hard to find people who are so connected to another creature." She smiled at the two of them, "I'm going to guess that the one that has the flesh of a demon but the heart of an angle is the one that just teleported out of here?"

Shadowcat: Well Lockheed has deemed himself my personal guard dog ever since he found me so we developed some sort of instinctive bond. And yes, that was Liz, our leader. She has some important matters to go over in her office. Christina and Avriletta can take you to meet her after you've finished your tour.

Pavati nodded in understanding. She of course knew of that bond that certain animals feel towards someone that has shown them unconditional love. She looked up at the huge jet behind Kitty and smirked, "SR71 Blackbird... but it's modified isn't it?" Having her parents working with the government, she has seen more than her fair share of the different kinds of planes and jets that the military used.

"If you've got any engin troubles let me know, I've been wanting to work on this bad boy ever since I laid eyes on her!" Avriletta walked over and stood next to Kitty, engins were just her thing, "So, miss pavatiiiiii... oooh I like that name, it tastes nice. What is it that you do for fun. A persons hobbies say alot about them."

"That Emily must be a friend of yours. She asked me the same thing." The dark girl turned her blue eyes to Avriletta, "I'm a hydrokinetic so I used it to learn to surf. I really don't do much these days other than meditate and practice my bending. Yeah... I know. Weird word, but it's the best way to describe it."

"Hmmm." Ave. smiled at the comment about Emily... but surfing? she'd never been, though she lived on the west coast, "Yeah, whatever Emily did slash does, I'm sorry in advance, she's the wierd one." Avriletta's shoulders shook as she laughed loudly.

Kitty was very surprised by the girl's attention to detail about the jet.
Shadowcat: Yes, that's right. The engines are complete modified with an alien technology. You know a lot about aircrafts?
Kitty was interested about Pavati's knowledge when she heard Liz's urgent message in her head.
I'm on my way.
Shadowcat: I'm sorry, but you'll have to excuse me. Christina and Ave will continue to show you around. And when Liz is available I'll take you to meet her. It's nice meeting you and thanks for keeping Lockheed company while I was gone.
Kitty smiled and lightly nodded her head to the girl as she left with Lockheed still perched on her shoulder and headed towards the elevator to Liz's office.

Emily rushed into the room, "Ave.!"
"What?!" she caught the gigantic blond woman as she flew toward her.
"Amy's sick.... " she looked over at Pavati, "And her car needs fixing."
"Really?" Avriletta looked over at Pavati then back to Emily, "We'll tend to that in a little bit... Where's Amy?"
"C'mon!" Emily dragged Ave out of the room and up to Amy's bed room.

Christina just watched as Kitty and Lockheed as well as Ave and Emily just quickly exit the hanger. She looks back to Pavati before she speaks.
Christina: Yeah, there's something always going on around here. It's never a dull moment. So, what would you like to see next?

As Kitty descended to the subbasement, she landed perfectly on her feet and walked along the hallways looking for Pavati and Christina. When she found them coming out of the hanger, Kitty interupted them.
Shadowcat: Hi again. Sorry Christina, but Liz asked to meet with Pavati as soon as possible. Liz will show the rest of the subbasement to her after they talk. I'll take Pavati to see her. Besides, I need you and two others to come on a personal mission with me so you should go pack some things. Who knows how long we'll be gone?
Christina: But where exactly are we going?
Shadowcat: I need to go back the Xavier mansion. There's something else I need to check in on.
Christina looked at Kitty strangely. Kitty was being vague. She was keeping something secretive too.
Christina: Well, why do you need me to come?
Kitty hated lying, particularly because she wasn't very good at it sometimes. Kitty thought of something quickly.
Shadowcat: Your powers could come in handy with my mission. Plus you'll get a chance to see the original mansion where the X-men started. Anyway, I'll explain more when it's time to go. So let's all head back to the surface and Pavati, I can take you to meet Liz.
