Who: Raven Darkholme, Logan Howlett, & Felix Jäger
Where: The Shreveport Police Station
When: Evening, just after the riot
Rating: PG
Summary: Raven infiltrates the Shreveport Police Station as Sheriff Kemp to look at look at the files on the James murder, just when Logan has the excellent timing to bring in a bounty.

( Her eye caught on a polished plaque, extolling some merit of excellence, with the sheriff's name engraved in the metal. Briskly, she ripped it off the wall. A pirouetted glance around the room located the trash bin and she dropped the award into it. Thoughroughly satisfying, but not what she'd come for. )

Who: Hank McCoy and Charles Xavier.
Where: Midflight; American Airlines.
When: Day One; January 15th, 1963
Rating: Teen.
Summary: Hank and Charles come to realize that while Plan A is possible, it’s also naively optimistic.

However, she is thoroughly chastised by her superiors for failing to follow her script to the letter, and is not happy about it at all! Her research assistant, Kent, is trying in vain to help. Charles sees an opportunity.

( she’d taken a moment, just one moment to be herself only to have a wall thrown up into her face. Again. )

When: Summer of 1961

Where: The Kemp home, Shreveport Suburbs.
When: Just after the police station riot: Day 2, 2 a.m.
Rating: MA at the moment, but not for long. Pervasive, but mild language. One instance of strong language.
Summary: The Sheriff gets a phone call from Esther Downs, the night-secretary at the Shreveport Police Department. On his way to his vehicle, someone takes advantage of both the late hour and his solitude.

Should a playable character not wish to reply, an NPC will be responsible for the attack on Kemp. News of his attack will spread by 9 a.m. Kemp will be alone in a hospital room by 2pm.

( Each house sat neatly between two identical homes and two identical driveways. The only things that distinguished his own house from those of his immediate neighbors was the parked police cruiser and the polished brass 105 above the doorbell. )

Where: the X-Mansion, or at least the driveway, at the moment
