Now moving like that of a Dolphine, the young red haired kid used her levitation ability to shoot out of the water and land back in, she does this affew times around the pool, showing off how much energy the youngster really had. Then when she had enough of the Dolphin play she pretended that the Water was a bad Villain, that is before she heard theres a race going on, she grinned brightly, and shouted with as much ethusiasm and energy as she can”If you want I’ll make sure noone cheats I have my ways to making them stop!”

The kid hoped they would let her ofcourse the worst she would do to someone was tickle them. And since some people had their belly area or sides bare, she figured it would be easy to make them stop, then she remembered that if she tickled them and they laughed then they could drown.. that would be too good.. She then decided that she could just huggle them.. that could work, the kid nodded to herself, a grin flickering onto her lips.

The youngster moved back to where the people who might be racing were, and floated there smiling’soo whatcha think of that?’ she asked smiling.

Seeing that the girl was alright, Alexandra let herself sit on the edge of the pool, her feet in the warm water. Raising an eyebrow when Sam asked her to help him with his sneaker, she grinned as her eyes slowly began to change colors. “You know, I might charge you for this.” she said as she focused on the water molecules from the soaked sneakers. Seconds later, they were completely dried.

A quick glance over the pool’s surface and a certain piece of clothing caught her attention. Poor Ghost, she thought, sympathizing the white haired mutant as she had been in the same situation not too long ago. Shaking her head slightly she dangled her feet, enjoying the soft touch of the water.

”Hey, no snoo snoo in the pool!

Her eyes shot up, looking for Dominic as he was the only one who could have said that out loud. A slight frown appeared on her face as she found him. “DOMINIC!” she shouted as she threw him a stern look. After the embarrassing sex talk she had given him, she expected him to stop saying things like these at the top of her lungs.

Sighing slightly, she looked at her sensei and the now resurfaced and clothed Ghost. Letting her body slide into the pool, she took a deep breath and dived in. Swimming underwater she headed to where the two, plus Alec were staying and resurfaced somewhere between them. She looked at the embarrassed Ghost, to Luke then back to Ghost. “You know, Ghost, I can make things even and manipulate Luke’s swimming trunks away…” she joked with a grin on her face.

Streak was ready to start swimming. Everything could be solved with swimming with friends, or hot girls, today. He'd only just heard Fade when she unexpectedly pushed Deathstar into the pool. She was quick to jump in and Streak didn't even have time to react. Deathstar was obviously not happy with being pushed in and had apparently thought that he'd done it. "I didn't." Was all Shawn could reply with before Deathstar realized what happened and who'd done it.

Streak jumped into the pool quickly after Deathstar had finished talking. There was no way he was going to refuse to a swim with these two ladies. With just a smile on his face he jumped in and did a cannonball very close to Deathstar. He would have gone after fade but since she was hanging on to the ladder that meant that she was to close to the edge for him to effectively pull off a good cannonball. Once he hit the water he was instantly cooled off. Streak immediately kicked to the surface and poked his head above the water so that he could breath. He looked at Deathstar and then Fade smiling broadly at them both. Streak wasn't one for cheating, so he was going to wait for either one of the girls to say 'Go' before he took off and left them in the dust. The silver mutant was pretty much ready for one of the girls to do something to him for the cannonball.

The topless woman met his eyes and more importantly had the top, he spun around as sun as he was sure she securely had it and went back the way he came toward the mansion and almost made it to surface when a pair of female bums plopped into the water... one covered only by a very sheer fabric. he darted right and then surfaced with a gasp his cheeks were red for a moment and then turned purple as the rest of him turned bright blue....he walked over to an empty pool chair and laid on his stomach while he enjoyed the sun, he could have ran all the way to the room but he didn't want to. He simply wanted to bask there his arms were slid up to his fore head and he steadied his breathing from all that...holding his breathe....he hadn't ever really though about the fact that there was apparently a lot of x women on the mansion grounds and how nice they looked in swimsuits...he was so cold from the water, it was almost not refreshing, it made him sleepy, in fact, and so he dozed while the sunlight did its job of drying him and heating him up.

Well, mission accomplished. People were now in the pool. It wasn't all bad. Ghost turned around when someone in something a lot... less dove into the pool for a race. How did she dive into the water in a bikini and get it to stay on? Was there some tape or glue conspiracy she didn't know about? Ghost was new to the bikini scene after all.

Luke came over, but kept a respectful distance. Smart man. He apologized. Raina had him trained well. Ghost frowned, shook her head, and then conjured a smile. "Mission Accomplished. People are in the pool and that is what matters." She would only be as embarrassed as she would let herself be. And if she were less embarrassed about it, then others would forget it sooner. That was the theory anyway.

Ghost wiggled her fingers at Alec too. Mmmm. Lovely. So everyone had witnessed the event. Fantastic. Ghost offered her hand to Alec hoping that he would help lift her out of the pool so that she didn't have to go past the avid swimmers and life savers to get out at the shallow end. "A little help?"

Luke kicked off and lazily floated back toward the shallow end. All the more reason not to go there. Ghost stuck her tongue out at him. Revenge, if she could manage it, would come when he least expected it.

Ghosty didn't seem particularly interested in speaking with Luke at the moment so he decided that maybe it was best to make a strategic withdrawal. Kicking away from the pool edge he moved toward the shallow end but then paused near the young woman that he had accidental knocked into the water during his mis-thought antics.

"Sorry about knocking you in." Luke said as he moved over to the edge of the pool nearest where Hymn was standing, "My name's Luke."

Placing his arms on the edge, Luke rested on his elbows as his cloudy eyes "looked" over at the young woman. She was a small woman with short hair and very large eyes. Luke thought he had seen her before but he couldn't place whether he had or not. "What's your name?"

"Sorry about knocking you in."
"My name's Luke."

It was the man who bumped into the woman who bumped into her and knocked her into the pool. It was quite the experience for her, the almost drowning part. He seemed to be quite sorry about what happened. "It's ok." She said and patted him. It was all in good nature.

"What's your name?"

Luke looked at her but didn't really look look. Something strange was about him. Maybe he looked at people differently like she did with her thoughts. It was kind of strange though, maybe that is why he bumped into her. "My name?" She asked. "Cailyn." She said to the luke man. "How do you see?" She blurted out, knowing that he didn't see like normal people did. This could be a bad start.

Kasumi walks with Shin as she smiles with her hips swaying softly she always moves so soft and graceful soon the cuss words. It is like nothing that she has not hurd before but Shin has the look that is princess. She has to stop herself form a giggle. Yet she seen another woman as she looks at her smiles as she bows her head to her. Before Kasumi can say her name all hell came a girl is drounding before Kasumi could do anything.

Shei sees what is going on the man saves the girl that is drounding. She seems to be alright. Kasumi lets out her breath as she looks to see a woman lost her top soon Shin asked her what snoo snoo is thanks to a show Kasumi whispers to Shin "Soon soon means love making.." Kasumi blushes some as she shakes her head. Wow this day is just odd right now she looks down soon she sees Shins powers for the first time she is soon in awa. Kasumi rests her hands behind her back. She soon comes up to the straps of her own top and dubble knots them. She does not need anything to come undone herself.

It seems that eveything is starting to clam down at last. Kasumi finds herself breathing clam again wow a good time can trun bad in the blink of an eye but that is what life is about. She very well knows it Kasumi keeps her eyes on Shin as she shakes her head and smiles to him. She did not get anything to eat due to girl drounding but she will in time. Shin is in the water she rugs her shoulders why not!? Kasumi walks to the eage of the poll at the deep end soon she does a perfect dive as she comes up oh the water felt good. Soon she swims to Shin as she looks at him "Well it seems that everything calmed down now." Some of Kasumi wet hair falls over her eyes as she smiles more. She always loved the water she could live in the water.

Her plan worked, Deathstar threw the blame on Streak and Fade had gotten off without even a finger wag. Well, she would have gotten away with it if she hadn't jumped into the pool and turned visible in mid-air, of course she was the dumb reason for her own capture. Deathstar didn't pounce on Fade and dunk her though, to Fade's satisfaction because it seemed like Deathstar realized Fade was slightly uncomfortable in the water. However, Fade did not want to look like the lame mutant that couldn't race them because she never learned how to swim, so she decided to toughen it out. Who knows? Maybe she'd learn how to swim just by this race.

"On your marks, get set, GO!" she called out before kicking off of the wall for a good heads start. It could be considered cheating, but that was the fastest she could go. Soon after the water slowed her down, she began to doggy paddy, awkwardly holding her head up out of the water as she kicked and flapped her arms underneath her like she was on all fours, running on top of an underwater treadmill. Although she looked ridiculous, she tried her hardest to not cause too much attention, so she smiled and laughed as if she were joking around and was waiting for the perfect moment to just sprint swim her way to the finish line, but she looked hopelessly...dumb...

Deathstar glanced around the pool as spectators took notice, it wasn't like she didn't want the attention, in her mind she wanted give her competitors and her new found audience something worth watching. Deathstar shut out the smile and sinked into competition mode, her eyes gazed to the other end of the pool as if it was a gold medal winning race. Adjusting her bikini top so nothing x rated would be in plain view, she looked over to Streak throwing a smirk to him as if she was saying good luck sarcastically, by that everyone was in their place a ready to go.

"On your marks, get set, GO!" [/b]

Deathstar stretched her body underneath the water after the word set sprang in her ear, giving her a slight head start, she didn't pay attention to Streak, nor did she pay attention to Fade's unique swimming technique. About three feet into the race Deathstar head appeared above the water, hands chasing each other at a rapid pace, legs kicking as if she in a race of her life, inhaling and exhaling as her head shifts from left to right, she had it in her head that this race was destined for her to win.

(OOC: Hymn & Luke story continued at the shallow end of the pool in Sonar & Swimming Lessons)

"On your marks, get set, GO!"

Streak wasn’t about to loose this race. He’d already been tricked once and he wasn’t going to let it happen again. As soon as he heard those words he sunk under water and started swimming ahead. The silver eyed mutant reached the surface of the water and started swimming. It didn’t seem to take long for him to reach Fade. As he got closer to her he could see that she wasn’t going all that fast. As he passed her he took a breath of air as one arm swung over his head he looked at Fade quickly. Is she doggy paddling? Streak thought as he put his head back in the water and continued his front crawl to the other side.

Deathstar was fast. But Streak was sure that he could at least come in second if not pass her. Every time that he took a breath he could see that he was closing the distance between himself and Deathstar. Shawn was swimming just about as fast as he could. Honestly he didn’t care one way or the other if he won or not, however he was curious what would happen if he did win. Swimming always gives you time to think, no matter how fast you’re going. If she’s this competitive what happens if she looses? Streak asked himself. He couldn’t help it. It was a valid question and he didn’t know much about her except that she was friends with Fade and an avid flirt. Other than that she was basically a stranger. It should be fun to find out what would happen. He had to admit to himself.

His fingers trailed through the clear blue as he kicked in place. Across the pool, people were making a mad splash of a race, and in the shallow end Luke was teaching a blond-haired girl to swim. Ghost was up on her bubble... or wherever she'd floated off to, and as Kasumi had said, everything seemed to be settling down. Shin sloshed water playfully her way and nodded.

"Seems like. Sorry about the food, though. Things just sort of got out of hand..." For a moment, his mind flushed with excuses and his cheeks felt warm. Was it the sun reflecting off the water, or...? A volleyball splashed down next to him, knocking him out of the thought.

"Could you get that, please?" A blond-haired boy asked. He waved his hands from the concrete poolside to get their attention. Dressed in green swim trunks with a black bar down the side, and a white tank top over his chest, he couldn't have been more than eleven. The sun bounced off the water, highlighting his rippling reflection on the shining surface. A younger girl hid behind him, wearing water wings and clutching a stuffed bear. Her cheeks glowed slightly from the excitement of the game. Shin paddled forward to grab the ball, and held it up in his hands. A name came to his lips as he remembered.

"Hey Millie. Who's your friend?"

"Hith name is Jakob!" She practically lit up in a smile. "We're playin' bolly-ball."

"Volleyball," Jakob corrected, turning to nod at her with soft golden eyes. He returned his focus to Kasumi and Shin in the water, and added "We could use a third and a fourth, if you're interested."

Shin looked at Kasumi, hands closing in around the ball as he considered. They'd just started swimming. Maybe she wanted to do a bit more of that before doing something else? Either could be fun, but he'd let her decide. His feet touched down on the bottom of the pool as he made an effort to toss the ball back to Jakob. The boy caught it between his palms like a snap.

"What do you think, Kasumi? Maybe we could play a little game with them? Or do you want a bit more of this." He smirked, gently splashing a bit more of the pool her way.

Kasumi shakes her her head her wet hair sticks to her back as she looks at Shin she is soon splashed as she lets out a squeak as she smiles "I am game I can play very good V-ball.." She soon splashes Shin back "I am good at a lot of things." She smiles more as she nods to herself a game of V-ball will be good she will have fun and will get to show off her moves around Shin also. She has always had a love for indoor V-ball she wonders how good she can do in the water well she will find out.

Soon Kasumi rolls her shoulders as she smiles more "Make sure you can keep up with me hun." She winks to Shin as she smiles huge. She will make sure not to jump to high due that it might be hard she will jump like a normal person. She nods to herself as she closes her eyes and smiles she could not be happier around Shin. She closes her eyes as she lets out a happy sigh still not use to the suit that she has on but Shin seems to like it so it is not all bad. She smiles more to Shin as she nods thinking that they make a very good team.
