BREAKING NEWS


DESTRUCTION OF SERO WAREHOUSE IN EARLY MORNING FIRE

At approximately 1:50 this morning, a SERO warehouse, recently converted to house an expanding program of human cloning, namely the cloning of skin and other tissues, was engulfed in flames. According to a couple eyewitnesses "fire rained from the sky". What occurred is at this point unknown as the building and everything inside was reduced to ash.

Casualties are still being determined however a few are known. Dr. Jenifer Sabini was on site, over seeing the set up of the project, and was tragically lost. Dr. Sabini had been a loyal SERO member for over thirty years and a valued member of their experimental genetics team, often working with patients whose powers cause extremely difficult complications for medical teams. For as yet unknown reason, a full staff was present in the overnight hours, mostly a janitorial staff.

Sadly this staff included a young Newcomer, Kevin Ford, who recently joined SERO and is listed as the last person to arrive for work that evening, about an hour before the fire. Kevin, a minor, was being escorted by an apparent guardian due to the Darkness hours, one time SERO member and fellow Newcomer Dr. Michael Xavier who is also listed on the list of confirmed causalities.

More information to follow as the investigation progresses!

[She's got her head bowed, shoulders rising and falling as if she's panting. Her hair is black, with red and silver streaks in it. The wall behind her is utterly blank.

Her harsh panting comes over the audio. Jubilee has been working. The video trembles for a moment and then she raises her head.

Blue eyes are seen through stringy hair. Sweat streaks her face.

And her eyes... her eyes aren't normal. They're flat, dead, exhausted...]

Dr. Michael Xavier is dead.

[The video cuts out, with the NV being hurled across a room.]




[OOC: Jubilee has locked herself in the Danger Room. And then locked the Danger Room down so no one can get in except herself, Emma and Magneto. She's also wearing void cuffs, because... yeah. She's surging and can't be around people.

To the people in her condo: Her phone went off at about 3am, right as she got to bed and then she just left. No one saw her again until this post.

[When Frau's voice flickers on it's filled with rage, pure and simple.  Mixed into that is a hidden sadness that nearly chokes him.  In the background is the sound of a pitiful little whining from Mimsy.]

God dammit, brat!  You swore to me that you would take care of yourself! 

[There's a growl from Frau and a pause, where Mimsy's whimpering is more obvious.]

Don't you see what you did to her?  Huh?

[And to him, but he would never say that.  He can deal with loss.  He's dealt with it before and he'll deal with it again.  It's no big deal to him.  Which is total bullshit, but he'll stand by that anyway.]

And YOU! 

[It's not overly apparent that Frau's no longer talking about Kevin, but he's not.]

This is why I don't believe in you, you ass.
