The Players : Jubilee and Erik Lehnsherr. What: Jubilee is bored and in the hedge maze at the Winters Manor. Where : Abigail Winters Manor, the hedge maze. When : Thursday night February 2nd, 2012, after it's dark. Rating : PG/PG13 maybe. I'll adjust it as needed. Notes : Jubilee is bored so now there is a mutant making a little bit of a spectacle of herself, where there are things that can catch on fire. Not exactly smart.
The air was rather crisp for the first night of February, but it didn't stop a bored Jubilee from pulling her coat on and making her way to and through the hedge maze on the manor grounds. Considering the season, the maze didn't look quite as impressive as it probably did in spring and summer, but it still had plenty of cover and she was bored. She could not mentally stress that enough to the world inside her mind. Yes, she had gotten a car with an unknown never ending fuel supply for Christmas (dude, Santa rocked) but it wasn't any use when she had no money to really do anything she wanted to do. Not that she had any idea of what to do anyway.
That was how she ended up wandering the maze, trying to find her way around, while using her brightly colored globules of plasma energy as her own little paff powered torch. Flashlight? Meh. Who needed them? She was the walking light show.. that just happened to blow things up too. Which made her at least a little cautious about how much power she put into each plasmoid. They would blind but not damage, which was really best for all right now.
So far the rise in mutants in Red Oak was interesting enough to keep her on her toes, even if she hadn't actually met any in person yet. It was kind of eerie actually, because the more she thought about it, Jubilee was thinking that she might very well be the one mutant that had been an X-Man the longest of the lot here, at least as far as she knew. Sure, Xavier was here, but it wasn't the one she knew. Did that some how make her the responsible one? The eighteen year old made a face at that thought and tossed the glowing globules into the sky above, their keen high pitched whistles no doubt mistaken for fireworks as they often were, and detonated them to explode in a shower of lights in the dark starry sky.
Nope. No responsibility here. Just a teenager making a spectacle of herself. Yup. If she was ever going to be considered responsible, then the fate of mutants was probably screwed. As if to prove her point, she fired off another few paffs into the sky. Screw being covert. New reality, new rules. Maybe she could earn a living for parties or shows with her powers here. With all the weird stuff around, a mutant couldn't be all that bad in comparison, especially one as awesome as her. (Or so she was going to tell her self until she actually started feeling bad for doing something stupid.)
Jubilee found herself in the center of the maze where a simple gazebo sat, surrounded by flower beds, a fish pond filled with koi, and a few hedge sculptures. Sitting herself down on one of the stone benches next to a hedge trimmed to look like a knight, she let out a bored yawn and began to throw around some more paffs, letting them dance around to whatever tune she imagined in her head. Maybe she could check out the community theater or something. Get back into acting. That would be something to keep her busy, right?
