Trouble abrewin'

[Kindle]

The streets of New York were hot in the summer sun, making heat waves steam from the black pavement. People were inside air conditioned stores or their cars. Men and women in business suits were red faced and sweating, children were playing in a sprinkler outside apartment buildings, and radio's talked about the hottest day of the year. A thought that brought groans to those listening, wishing for colder weather.

One person seemed utterly unaffected. A blond man walking through the streets, with torn jeans, a gray t-shirt, and a helmet beneath one arm. He seemed to have a purpose about him, even if it wasn't readily apparent. His booted feet thudded quietly against the hot pavement as he went, making his way through the crowd rather unaffected by the heat. It made some people mutter angry retorts as he pushed past them.

He'd been informed by Magneto that he was to try and get students from Xavier's school to join their side. He wasn't entirely sure he wanted to, those kids were too naive for what Magneto wanted...and really...who was he to tear them away from loving families?

A female had recently left an apartment complex. She was dressed in blue jeans, an orange long sleeved shirt, and was currently pulling a grey overshirt over her head. She appeared comfortable within her outfit of choice. A happy grin formed once she noticed people staring at her because of her outfit.

She seemed unphased by the summer heat. As the female walked she reached her hands up and pulled her hair out from between her undershirt and overshirt, quickly tying it into a low ponytail. As she walked a bounce coordinated into her step. Eventually she began to hum. This female was childish for an adult.

"Oh Iris, what are you gonna do once someone figures out what you are?" Iris talked to herself. She kept walking, really having nothing to do for the day, so why not wander around.

[Kindle]

The woman had stepped right into his way, so instead of saying 'excuse me' like a normal person, he simply pushed past her. He didn't have the time, nor the patience, to stop and be nice. Though, he wasn't sure he could be nice even if he tried really hard to. It was a character flaw of his, that he really wasn't ready to discard at this point in his life.

[iWolfPirate]

Iris was thrown off her balance some. She stopped in order to catch it and looked up at the male that had shoved past her so rudely. A hesitation cam across her, trying to figure out what his issue was. Finally she decided to act.

"Oi!" She ran after the male to catch up to him, slowing down to match his walking pace. Iris reached out a hand, placing it on Kindle's shoulder, hoping to get his attention. "What's the deal, eh?"

[Kindle]

Kindle heard the voice, but was startled by the hand. Not many people touched him. "Hands off." He managed, jerking his shoulder out of reach, "What the hell do you want?" He didn't slow his pace at all, and in fact seemed to be walking faster, as if trying to lose her. Which he was, James didn't enjoy company. Or rather, they never enjoyed his company. It didn't matter.

The momentary lapse in paying attention made him miss a business man running to catch a taxi. He certainly felt the result as the man slammed into his shoulder. "Hey asshole, watch where your fuckin' going!" He shouted at him, a little hypocritical, but hey, James didn't much care what anyone else thought.

[iWolfPirate]

A soft growl emitted from Iris, having her question been ignored. She paused, watching Kindle continue his rudeness.

"Oh what a great use of the english language, and so kind too," She sarcastically said. Iris ran after him again. This time she ran ahead, sharply turned around and lunged forwards, tackling Kindle down. She seemed to have ignored the fact that she could easily thrown off.

"What's your deal? I know people who are rude, but I've never met anyone as rude as you!"

[Kindle]

"Right now its you, what the fuck are you doing? Goddamn bitch. Get off." He angrily shoved her off him, much to the amusement of those people around them. Getting himself free of her he got up, glaring at those who had paused to watch the spectacle. Snorting he glared at her, wholeheartedly mad that he'd been tackled in public of all places. No one touched him, let alone tackle him. "Back off, and leave me the hell alone, you got me?"

[iWolfPirate]

Iris rolled and quickly stood after she had been thrown off the male. She smiled slightly and shook her head, watching him stand. She seemed to have ignored the humans around that watched to see what would happen.

"Lovely language you have there." She kept her smile about her. "And i'm sorry, but I don't know how to back off." She chuckled a bit, finding this quarrel quite amusing.

[Kindle]

"Fuck off." He managed once more, snorting at her and then shoving past the nearest bystander. There were a lot of people apparently waiting for a fight to heat up between them. If she kept pushing their might be, and Kindle wondered if he even wanted a fight right now. He would soon enough he figured.

[iWolfPirate]

"Sheesh" Iris watched Kindle, laughing at his anger. "Somebody's got anger issues," She sang a bit, unintentionally mocking him.If it angered him further, what ever happen would happen and so the events would play out from there. Iris stayed where she was, not chasing after the male this time.

Some of the locals in the crowd looked disapointed, hoping to see some action. Seems though that they were disapointed too early. Something was bound to happen, Darkfire just didn't know what exactly.

[Kindle]

Her sarcastic retort was all it took, and a tingling began in his fingers, making them glow red. Of course, this was probably a foolish place to do this but....when angry he couldn't control his powers. His fireflies took every opportunity to get loose after all. He turned back to her, eyes narrowed in anger. "I'll show you anger issues." Came the hiss from between gritted teeth. Alright so, yeah. He had anger issues. Wouldn't you?

[Athena]

Athena's relative good mood was ruined when Kindle shoved past her, after shoving past Iris. The hot day had given her energy; just like cloudy or rainy days made her sleepy and grouchy. Peircings glinting in the afternoon air, the Xavier Institute student got back onto her feet in a flash, her smiling faced turned to a scowling one.

"What it, asshole!", she snapped loudly at Kindle, glaring at the retreating males' head. She hadn't yet to notice Iris, or not as anyone more important than the signing girl.

[iWolfPirate]

"Oooh this should be fun." Darkfire smirked. She kept her still, and now kept her silence. Her smile stayed, seeming as if it were glued. Iris waited to see what would happen, and would also see how long she could last without her fire.

"Well are you going to show me, or are you just going to stand there?" Iris broke her own silence, chuckling a bit after she spoke.

[Kindle]

Another woman threw in her two sense and he merely glared at her in return. He did not need to be double-teamed by these two bit whores. "Fine." He said, and he came at Iris, his fists scalding hot but as of yet producing nothing. He hated making his pathetic little fireflies. They made him look ridiculous.

[Athena]

Athena was expecting the huffy 'fine' and maybe for him to stalk off or shove her again; she hadn't been expecting the punch that he threw. Wincing slightly - and a bit suprised - the teenager watched as Kindle aimed his throw towards Iris. Now this - this would be fun to watch.

Athena grinned. Maybe she could even join in! Her pulsed raced at the thought, and the mutantess felt her muscles coil in readying. A fight was just what she needed; something to ease the tension that all those rules had brought down on her.
