Pyro could feel it before he even opened his eyes. It was as if an anchor was holding him down, the weight of his head so heavy he could barley lift it. So instead, he first attempted to open his eyes . . . though instantly regretted doing it so quickly. The bright lights surrounding him cause Pyro to groan in discomfort, attempting to open them again though this time through drawn out blinks until they adjusted to his surroundings which . . . were unknown to him. The uncertainty of where he was, and the disorientation of what had happened that led him here, was enough to make him try to sit up to gain his bearings. But a blurry vision of someone else in the room paused his actions, not moving more than in a half upright position. Trying to blink the vision into clarity, eventually, the outline of the person became clearer. The features of the form more distinct. And well, Pyro would recognize him anywhere.
"Well, if I'm dead, then this is hell," he groaned sarcastically, lying back down on the surface of whatever held him up. He didn't know exactly where he was but he could take a guess. The words enough to cause further strain because, who knew talking could be so taxing. He didn't remember everything . . . but he remembered enough to know that the last person he remembered seeing before darkness consumed him, was Bobby. And the first person he saw now, was Bobby. There should be a strong comfort in that, but with their history . . . Pyro couldn't help but feel, unease. "What happened?" He asked, knowing that he couldn't stay here for long without answers.

John was bored. It was exam week at the school and everyone was busy studying. Pyro however, was over it. He was wandering around, flipping his lighter cap open and closed, a habit of his that sometimes he didn't even realize he was doing. He had tried to watch TV, but the younger mutants were arguing about what to watch so his tolerance for juvenile debates had run out within the first few minutes of listening to it. Not that patience was ever his strong suit. So he went to the next best place: the kitchen. He however, was going to look for something very specific, taking advantage of the fact that there were no adults supervising and most everyone was engrossed in their studies.
He still glanced around to be sure though; one could never be too careful. Once the coast was clear he eyed that top cupboard that had a lock in it. A smile spread on the mutant's lips as he pulled out a couple pins from his pocket and started fiddling with the lock until it clicked. Knowing exactly what was inside, he grabbed a bottle of the scotch and put it in his inside jacket pocket, though had to adjust his arm to keep hold of it. Now scotch wasn't exactly Pyro's top choice of drink, but that was all he could currently find so it would have to do.
Closing the lock once more and casually making his way out of the kitchen, he walked down the hall with a clear destination in mind. Hell, he didn't even knock when he got there. Uncaring of what his friend was up to, John opened the door and quickly closed it behind him, entering Bobby's room. "Break time," he said with a smile, revealing the bottle of scotch as he just assumed Bobby was studying like everyone else. After all, it was no fun to drink alone.

Damn, Lorna got him hooked on these cheese-it snacks. Pyro had managed to swipe a box from her, which, he knew she was going to kill him over. But every bite was more than worth it. Pyro was technically on watch as he stood in the tower, purposely not offering the other mutants there any of his delicious snack. If he was going to steal it, he was sure as hell going to devour it on his own. Sharing was not caring in his world. The only thing that made him stop eating, was seeing an aircraft in the distance . . . one that was approaching the island. "Incoming!" He yelled below to the others keeping watch. He grabbed the binoculars, trying to see if there was any identification on it. This was exactly what the Brotherhood was trained for: in case unwanted visitors were upon them. Especially humans. The Brotherhood were prepared to fight and protect their land, including the residents that lived among them who functioned as civilians.
Quickly hurrying down the tower, he moved toward Selene, jerking his hand a little to ignite the spark from his flamethrower, resulting in a fireball in the palm of his hand. She however, told him that they were cleared. That visitors were expected. Well, that certainly made things less fun . . . but he supposed it was good for the others who knew they were safe. "Well, damn. I was ready for a fight," he said disappointed. Never the less, everyone stood their ground and watched the aircraft land onto their land. Their home. A place where outsiders were not welcome unless they were ones who wished to live among them in Genosha.

Pyro was coming back from a little bit of 'training'. There was something rather fun about setting cars in a junkyard on fire. He was working on the next stage of his powers: psionic fire creations. It would land him on a whole new level and his impatience was making him easily frustrated. Until he could master it however, he would just keep practicing. Having made his way back to the headquarters, he was going up to his room to take it easy for the rest of the night. People were passing each direction, and one of them engaged in conversation as they did. Pyro was being asked about how training went. "Good. Pretty soon I'll be able to kick your ass better than I already do," he told him with a smirk.
The other mutant chuckled, rolling his eyes at Pyro's teasing threat. With the conversation, Pyro was walking backwards so that he could see the other mutant's direction, which meant that he wasn't paying attention to where he was going and soon enough, he collided into another mutant. Fortunately, it wasn't enough to cause him to fall, as he quickly braced himself and regained his footing. He turned to see who it was, and almost instantly recognized her. Because she was Magneto's kid. But even then, it wasn't in Pyro's style to apologize. "If you have wings, why are you walking everywhere?" He asked her, somewhat sarcastically since they had bumped into each other. Talk about not taking advantage of your gift.

Despite all the missions of the Brotherhood, training, and everything that required them to fight for mutant rights . . . they were still young adults. And they weren't getting any younger. That's why Pyro was currently going where he was. A few nights ago a few of them had gone to an underground mutant nightclub and he had met someone there. Yes. He had met a woman. And it had gone pretty well. So much so that he was currently meeting her for a drink. Bringing women back wasn't exactly an easy thing to do, so if it went well . . . Pyro would be spending the night in the city. Checking himself one more time in the mirror, he pulled on his jacket, flicked a bit of his styled hair to the side, and made sure his flame thrower was on. But this, this was the least stressful part of meeting here. There was one person in particular he was trying to avoid. Not only because he had no idea how she would react, but also because he doubted he would hear the end of it. Taking a deep breath, he exited his place and made his way down the path. No sooner had her name entered his mind that he had nearly collided right into her! "Damn it, Polaris!" He said, completely caught off guard and . . . well, having jumped a little at her unexpected presence lurking out here. "You scared the shit out of me." And once he was over that, he would need to think of an excuse as to where he was going . . . and why he wasn't taking her with him.

Well, this all sucked. Royally! The one time they were close to some action, they got stuck in this damn place, collars on and everything. Lorna was smart mouthing the guard and Pyro was just flashing middle fingers to them. He knew the others would come but still. He was having some major fomo and he blamed Lorna for this. Just as she probably blamed him. The dysfunction of their friendship somehow worked and at the end of the day, he was just glad that she was alright. For now. But he quickly came to regret that thought when news broke out. News that shocked him, just like it had her. But the second he saw that smile and her reaction . . . he had to fight to roll his eyes. If he thought she was intolerable before, she was going to be ten times worse now.
As predicted, Magneto came in and Pyro hurried to the glass to see if he was alright. Was this part of the plan?! He trusted their leader but still. He wanted to get the hell out of here! The two of them exchanged whatever they were talking about, hearing him ask if she was alright and Lorna confirming. At this point, Pyro couldn't remain quiet any longer. "I'm alright too by the way, thanks for asking!" He said, giving a little wave from his cell. Though it was separate only the thick mix of plastic and glass separated them, and their voices could be heard.

Usually, Pyro enjoyed being out on a field trip... even the boring educational ones. Why? Because it gave him the chance to expand his amusement beyond the walls of the school. He could have some fun with his powers, harass and bother other people, not just mutants, but humans as well. And damn, was it fun to bother them. They always looked so scared and shocked by his powers and it was pretty hilarious to see the ridiculous expressions on their faces. But right now... that wasn't likely to happen. While they were out on a field trip in the general public, he was being babysat. Apparently, the last stunt he had pulled at the mall had not only cost him a few weeks detention, but also the penalty of having a teacher to personally chaperon him at the next trip. Which was now. And who was none other than Scott Summers. Or well, Cyclops. Just his luck. At least if he got Storm he could work toward annoying her, but Scott was the more 'take no crap' kind of guy.
So now Pyro was stuck in the serious man's company. Great. They were all free to explore the convention until the second part of the tour began. Pyro had no interest. Ok, well that was a lie. He actually was interested but pretended not to be. That would make it seem like he actually cared about these things and it would ruin his reputation as a slacker. Instead, he stood alongside Cyclops, clearly bored and making this very evident. He didn't even have his lighter as it had been confiscated! "So... looks like you got the short end of the stick. Pull the shortest straw? What made you get stuck babysitting? Figure this is the ultimate low for a teacher." John was doing what he always did: talked for the sake of talking and annoying others. Though he knew better than to pick a fight with a teacher. But that didn't mean he couldn't be, or strive to be, a pain in the ass.

Figures she wasn't going to move. But to say she was enjoying the view? He continued to smirk at that. "Thanks," he replied, knowing she wasn't talking about him, but decided to make a joke about it. They may not exactly be friends any more... but Pyro was the same. Just able to express himself more freely without the constraints that had existed in the school. She confirmed that she had no plans of leaving, which served him just fine. He was rather having fun 'catching up' with her. It was her next words that caused him to pause as she told him, or accused him, of possibly missing Bobby. That certainly did not amuse him. "That's cause I know him," he told her. There weren't many people he had bothered forming some semblance of a friendship with at the school. But he and Bobby had... yes, they had become friends. How, no one could explain. They couldn't be more different, more opposite. Not only in terms of their powers but also their personalities.
Bobby was the do gooder type who everyone loved. Pyro was more the one who got in trouble and who everyone believed was a bad influence. Together, they had somehow worked as friends. But that was well in the past. "I don't miss anything about that school," he said defiantly and stubbornly, refusing to admit that he liked anything about it. "Bobby and I don't have anything in common. Well, except for the fact that we're mutants. Which is more than what can be said about you." He deflected, moving the conversation back to her instead of him and his time spent at the school. "What exactly do you and Iceman have in common right now anyway?" He asked, only half rhetorically because he would actually love to hear an answer. "Mutual love for foozeball and thumb wars?" He further mocked, thinking back to the time when they had first started dating.

She told him that he had made his point, and to leave. Like hell. "Actually, I'm waiting for a few more people here, so why don't you leave." Instead of just sitting here like a loner. "Go wander the streets or get yourself to a hospital or something." Or go back to her precious school. He didn't care which option she chose. All he knew was that he was going to remain here until he was ready to go, and it sure as hell wasn't going to be because she dismissed him. What right did she even have to do that? "Besides, we was here first," he added, still with a smirk on his face, referring to him and his fellow mutants. He may have joined the scene a little later, but they had been here before she decided to join and interrupt the little conversation they had. A lot of good that did. "Here," he began to say, reaching into his pocket. He pulled out a quarter and tossed it to her.
"Why don't you call your boyfriend to come pick you up." Pyro would just love that. If there was one thing he liked doing, it was provoking Bobby. He had done so when they were friends (though in a very different way) and he did so now. Only now of course it was in a far less friendly kind of way. It was provoking him into fights that could very well cost one of them their lives, or at least become injured. So it would be so much fun if he joined the scene, and Pyro could see his reaction to everything that had happened. Would Bobby be the same old Bobby and walk away from a fight? Probably, but Pyro hoped he could discover that for himself. And yet knew Rogue well enough to know that she probably wouldn't put him in that position. Still. Either way, he at least got to mock her.

Pyro watched, slightly snickering at Bobby put out the fire on the woman's arm and then urged her to leave. Now where was the fun in that?! Had Pyro not been so focused on Bobby right now, perhaps he would have had toyed around with the fire a little more. But the woman ran off and quite frankly, that was the least of his concerns right now. Not that Iceman was a concern. In fact, he just made Pyro's day a little less boring. Pyro smirked when Bobby asked if all this was necessary. Damn, he hated being called John... that wasn't his real name! "Necessary? No." Even Pyro could admit that. He knew the difference between necessity and what was not. This, was not. "Fun? You bet." That's all it was. Terrorizing others was fun. With Magneto as his leader, he had felt he had a stronger purpose in his life and how he spent his days... and until he came back as their leader, Pyro had to make do with what he could and so filled his time as he pleased.
"What are you doing here anyway? I'm surprised your X-Men let you off your short leash," he mocked. That school was all about control and discipline. Two things that Pyro had never done well with. Though the Brotherhood was clear example that if the cause was great enough, Pyro was willing and capable of following orders. Though, the mutant had to briefly wonder who exactly was in charge of the school now with Xavier's death. Probably Ororo. Maybe Wolverine. HA! That would be hysterical. Dude wasn't exactly a team player... though maybe he too had turned into a softy after spending so much time with the passive ways of the X-Men.
