The day he slipped away...(Lynx)

[Charrli LeBeau]

She had found the Institute yesterday, but...she hadn't found her father there. But she stayed anyway, getting hardly any sleep last night. Charrli still couldn't stop thinking about that night...the night she saw her hero collapse onto the pavement...dead. As she walked through the park one of the professor had told her about, she tried to shake the images from her mind, and those sounds from her ears..the sounds of Christopher yelling out in pain, as they shot him. "Make it stop..." she muttered where nobody could hear, as she stared at the ground.

[Lynx Lock]

Lynx, hearing her say something that could barely be heard, looked over at her. Something seemed to be troubling her. He knew how that felt. Whether it be food or where he was going to stay for that night something always bothered him he just tried not to show it. He decided to walk over to her to see what was bothering her. This was something new, he never really spoke to anyone. He walked over to her, "Are you okay?" He asked simply. What more was there to ask?

[Charrli LeBeau]

Charrli stopped, when she heard somebody nearby say something. Looking up, she saw who had asked. She wasn't sure if she should bother answering or not. She tried not to let people know how she was feeling...that was just how she'd always been, like her brother was. She looked down at the ground for a moment,choosing her answer carefully. "Yeah..." she answered quietly. "I'm fine.."

[Lynx Lock]

Lynx could somewhat tell that she wasn't telling him what was really bothering her but he didn't blame her; they had just meant. They didn't even know each others name's yet and they didn't know if the other could be trusted. He wasn't too sure of what to do at the moment so he bowed. He had always been a bit formal and a habit of his was to bow to a person when he meant them or when he greeted them. He didn't do this to exactly everyone, he wouldn't bow to his worse enemy or someone that he knew was bad. He looked at her, "...My name is Lynx." Was it right for him to introduce himself like this? He couldn't think of anything else to say and it seemed a bit akward for him just to turn away and leave.

[Charrli LeBeau]

Charrli stared at him for a moment, waiting to see what he would say. She was a little surprised when he introduced himself to her, and she smiled slightly. "..My name is Charrli..." she said in reply.

((it's pronounced like shar-lee...))

[Lynx Lock]

Lynx smiled a bit, "It's nice to meet you Ms. Charrli." Nice to meet someone? This was a first for him. He usually liked to be alone and would care less if he meant someone new. Once again he couldn't think of anything to say and his mind trailed off to random things. Food as always. He could never eat a decent meal and the food he did eat was far from satisfying him. He went back to reality and looked at her once again. This time he would wait and see if she had anything she wanted to add to this awkward conversation.

[Charrli LeBeau]

"It..it's nice to meet you, too..Lynx." This was the first time in a while she'd bothered to crack a smile, or make any friends. The only 'friend' she probably had at the moment was that Peter guy, who she didn't really even know. She watched him for a moment, wondering if he'd say anything else, but he didn't. So she had to try and think of something to say..but what? She glanced around as she tried to think of something. "So.." she started, looking at him again. "Are..you a student at the Xavier Institute..?" she asked curiously.
