"Dat was de worst argument I've ever heard." Kai's reason for him and Jubilee tagging along was a horrible one and was making Remy wish that he had stayed in bed today. Or at least not stopped in the lounge, just left the mansion altogether. "What strip club is dis anyway?" Always an important thing to know if you were planning to go there, though there was a good chance that Remy had visited the club during his life in New York.
"If ya t'ink I'm gonna take ya inside a strip club ya out o' ya minds. Ya can come, but ya stay outside, not a step inside. And anyone who talks gets a full month in Danger Room wit' me, an' I don' play by de rules." The last portion of Remy's comment was directed more towards Jubilee. She was always talking, or popping her gum, or doing something that would get their cover blown.

Jubilee sighed with frustration. She knew how awkward Gambit could be at times and that it was so hard to get a straight answer out of him. “Well, look, when you finally figure out what’s happening…come get me,” she moaned. “I’m not hanging around here all day and watching you play pool. The one good point about Gambit was that Jubilee knew he had a soft spot for her and more often that not let her get away with things.
Flicking a piece of hair into place and yanking and her t-shirt she made for the exit. It had gotten a little nippy in the room anyway and Jub was still recovering from the flu. Maybe it wasn’t such a good idea to tag along with them…maybe a full day’s rest was more wise. Regardless of what she was intending, she needed to change because the clothing she had on would just not do at all.

Kai sighed and nodded as Jub left the room.
"The Hellfire Club," said Kai, not wanting the other student coming into the convo too. Gambit was starting to crack and Kai could use this as an advantage. The small mutant folded and sighed in exhasperation. This was getting to be tedious. The girl was bound to be in trouble and unless they acted fast then she could very well be dead.
"Fine. We'll stay outside but at least let me send a ghost with you," said Kai. He let his arms fall to his side and shifted his weight. He waited for Gambit's answer.

Jubilee was unhappy, but Remy simply shrugged it off. She liked to get her way all the time and that wasn't always going to happen, she needed to learn that. He did like her, she had good potential for nearly anything, but he often found himself stopping and reminding himself that she was just a student, a kid. Though she was also the only familiar face around here now, student-wise at least.
" 'scuse me?" Standing up straighter once he heard Hellfire Club, Gambit groaned inwardly, though the stoicism never left his face. Yes, he knew of the club, though had never been there before. Many times Gambit had wanted to go, to case the place then return later and relieve them of some of their possessions, but they would have caught on to that. The only chance of stealing from them was a one night thing with no prior knowledge of the building's inside.
"Now ya certainly ain't goin' back in. I don' need ya help, I can get in an' out 15 minutes tops if I go it alone." Other people were just too unpredictable, too hard to communicate with without any words. Now if Rogue was around, that's a partner he'd take with him. Or even Wolverine. The two never got along, but when they had to they could make an amazing team.

"Woah woah..." Kenta sat forwards, leaning towards the other three. "Okay, I know I'm not really a part of this conversation, but it's a bit hard to not over hear. And by the sounds of this you are gonna break into a strip club..."
Kenta ran a hand through his hair, and rubbed the back of his head. "And remembering that using powers in public is illegal and not very wise..."
Kenta didn't really want to get involved, but seeing them go out and get in trouble wasn't really a good thing to do.

Kai sighed with exhasperation. Clearly, Remy was not going to endanger the students. Then big nose over there had to get involved. Kai looked to Kenta and remembered that he was his roommate. What was the guy's name? He was bad with remembering things at times.
"Yes, I know that, thanks," said Kai, slightly irritated that this guy had stated the obvious. Kai had been there when the Sentinel had explained the rules regarding of the Registration Act. It was still a sore subject and one that Kai wished to avoid. "Ok. How about this? Me and Jubilee come with you but don't actually do anything 'cept help the girl come back here." Kai was a persistant little tyke and if he wasn't careful then he could end up being grounded. He folded his arms and looked at Remy, daring him to oppose him.

This time it was the other boy who took Remy's attention, Kenta. Yes, Remy knew all about the boy, he was the boy's squad leader after all. Teaching his members breaking and entering, that would really ruffle Scott's feathers. Maybe even enough to kick Gambit off the squad? That would be perfect. As the plot unfolded in Remy's mind, he remembered the key words that Kenta had used. "Who said anyt'in' 'bout usin' powers Kenta?"
Red eyes glowed devilishly behind the dark frames of his sunglasses, though he grinned only inwardly. "Oui, lets go." If the boys or Jubs did anything to get Remy caught, he'd personally oversee their next year of education, without a doubt. And he had meant it when he said that he didn't play fair in the Danger Room.

Kenta smiled and shook his head. "If you do it without getting caught I shall be very impressed. And if you don't use powers I shall be even more impressed." Kenta said.
He stood up and straightened his clothes. "I'll come and watch. There's not much to do around here at the moment anyway. But I'm not getting involved, don't worry about that. You get in trouble I ain't gonna get myself in trouble to help you." Kenta smiled. He said that, but he knew he wouldn't be able to stand to the side and watch them get arrested. He just hoped he wouldn't have to help in the first place.

Kai smiled and struck the air in triumph. Remy had given in, with a little goading from Kai's roommate. He sprang to his feet and smiled at them both and walked to the doorway. He turned to his roommate and the teacher.
"I'll let Jubilee know that we're going," said Kai and with that, he went to find Jubilee, leaving Kenta and Remy alone. He managed to find her room and knocked on the door, waited a moment and then spoke.
"Jubilee, we're going. Meet me downstairs," he said before going back downstairs to where the others were.

Jubilee grinned and stripped to her underwear, tossing her dirty laundry into the basket at the end of her bed. Opening the closet door, she could smell the fresh pine wood even more now. Sifting through the numerous outfits, she slipped into her black leather bodysuit. Attached the belt, tugged at her blue boots and complete the outfit by putting on her gloves. Grabbing her red-convertible car keys, she left the room…
“Oh…,” she said out loud, she’d forgotten her favourite yellow coat and felt unlucky if she went on missions without it. She quickly grabbed it off of her bed and closed the door. Jogging down the picturesque hallway, she passed many vases, painting, lamps and subcultures too. It was funny how she never ever in the years she’d been living there, took the time to stop and admire any of the décor. But, as always, Jubilee had more important things on her mind, hopping down the staircase and making her way into the lounge, she flicked down her pink shades and swung her car keys around on her fingers. “Now…are we takin’ my car or yours?”

Returning his deck of cards to one of the many secret pockets inside his trench coat, Remy's thoughts were focused on the old church that was now the Hellfire Club. "I'll be in de foyer when I'm ready t' leave." With that, Remy left the room, heading back to his suite here. When he finally came to the foyer his regular clothes had been replaced with his belted black uniform. Of course the brown trench coat stayed on, making him only slightly less noticeable in the night. Though that the was wonderful thing about a coat, it could be easily slipped off.
Leaving his room and coming down the staircase in the foyer, Remy heard Jubilee, obviously retrieved from someplace. Transportation, always a good idea, though Remy was out of his element now, all his cars had been shipped to France when he moved out. Though it wasn't hard to procure a vehicle, but if Jubilee was offering hers, then all was well. Walking over to the group, Remy plucked the keys from her finger, smiling to her. "Merci petite. I'll drive." Yes, Remy was one of those guys, who always had to drive. And very, very fast.

“Heeey,” she moaned as Remy snatched the keys from her hand. She loved him, but sometimes he was just too much for even her to handle. Tugging at Remy’s trench coat she asked, “So, what route we takin’?Are we knockin’ on the front door? How many do you think are in there?” Looking up at Remy she felt he had switched off from her even before she asked the first question.
Jub, now sulkin, had her arms folded as though to express the fact she pissed off. She was indeed, but she wanted everyone around her to know it too. Call it childish, but Jub didn’t care as long as she got her own way.

Kenta stayed near the back of the group. He didn't mind going out, he just didn't to get involved with anything. Watching Jubilee trying to get Gambit's attention and then turn to sulk made him smile. Not that he like her being sad it just reminded him of his younger brother.
"I'm staying in the car by the way." Kenta said. "I'll... you know, watch the escape route.

Kai followed the rest of the group to where the car was. He watched at how Jubilee sulked when Remy said that he'd drive. He smiled and lightly chuckled. He sat next to Kenta in the car. This was going to be fun. Kai had already made two friends in the space of four nights and three days.
Kai strapped himself in.
Oh, Kenta before I forget, stop snoring in your sleep!" said Kai before he stuck out his tongue at his rooommate. Kenta snored majorly and he also was so noisy when he turned over in his sleep. "I'm ready to go, and I'll be coming out of the car.".

Kenta smiled and made himself comfortable in the car. I don't snore." He said jokingly. "You're just dreaming that. I'm as quiet as a baby when I sleep."
He pulled out a seed from his pocket and started roll it between his index and thumb, then middle and thumb and back and forth. He often did this when he was relaxing. Helped him to focus on things.
"How long is the drive anyway?" Kenta asked Gambit.
