To investigate the Pentagon

[Shadowcat]

Kitty maintained the controls of the jet while Lockheed snoozed on the co-pilot's chair. She checked behind her and saw Keiy and Nala talking to each other, seemed like they were really getting closer. Kitty smiled at the sight before turning her attention back to the controls. Soon, they would be in Washington D.C, and who knows what would await them there? The place was probably swarming with security still. They would need a way to get in to investigate. Kitty set the auto pilot controls and turned to the communications. She punched in the cell number of their inside government official.

Beast: Hank McCoy.

Shadowcat: Hey Dr. McCoy.

Beast: Katherine. I will assume this is not a social call seeing the state of emergency Washington is in.

Shadowcat: You got it. Have the FBI found anything?

Beast: Nothing that is being made known to the public at the moment. But some of the security footage survived the blast. They have two unidentified suspects that place them in the Pentagon right before the bomb went off.

Shadowcat: Sovereigns?

Beast: If they are, then they are not known to us.

Shadowcat: Well, we are on our way to investigate . Any chance you can talk to the security there to let us in?

Beast: I will consult with the President immediately to give you access. When will you get here?

Shadowcat: ETA 20-30 minutes.

Beast: Consider it done. And Kitty, please be careful. Washington is not a safe place right now, especially for mutants.

Shadowcat: What's going on?

Beast: I assume you have heard of Graydon Creed as a presidental candidate. Well, he is gaining popularity, and the public is turning into a frenzy because of this political party, the Friends of Humanity.

Shadowcat: *sighs* Great... Ok, we'll watch our backs. Thanks Hank.

Kitty closed the communications link and went back to the controls. She shook her head and sighed heavily. Things were looking like they wouldn't be easy in Washington.

Keiy, who had fallen asleep during the flight, woke up during Kitty's conversation with Hank McCoy. He shifted awkwardly and looked around the plane with dazed eyes. "Mornin." He mumbled sleepily.

[Shadowcat]

Shadowcat: Good morning. We are getting ready to land.

Kitty set the controls to prepare the jet for landing.

Keiy rubbed his eyes and looked at Nala. His face flushed slightly at the thought of his dream. It was of snuggling up to the blond in the dream. He smiled slightly and then nodded at Nala.

The landscape of Washington D.C. grew larger as Kitty lowered the jet to land. As Kitty found the landing strip of the Pentagon, something caught her eye. There were a lot more people surrounding the Pentagon than she had anticipated.

Shadowcat: What is going on here?

As the jet came to a stop and the roar of the engines had quieten, a muffled roar of a crowd came from outside the jet.

Nala was a little nervous, but felt a little high in her head because of Keiy. It's wasn't her first time flying, but she had never flow in one of these things ... Quite frankly, she preferred flying with Keiy again.

When they arrived, strange sounds were heard outside the plane. "What's going on?" To afraid to look trough the window, she asked Keiy.
