Back as herself

[Risty]

Risty walked down the hallway. She had never been to Bayville or Bayville High and felt a little lost.
"What am I doing here..." she mumbled and looked around. She was looking for Chemistry class, luckily she had some tim to find it.

She went through the corridor, looking.
"No... Not there... Nope... Not that one..."

"Hey Risty!"
She turned around and faced some girl.
"Want to hang out at the usual place afterwards? Where have you been anyway?"
"Er... N-No not today..." said Risty, her only reason to say no was because she had no idea where 'the usual place' was.

She quickly turned around and went the other direction.

[Tabby]

Tabitha was in the cafeteria, having a slight "disagreement" with the soda machine. After about two minutes of messing with it, she place a small bomb where you'd normally put the change, then stepped back as it exploded. She caught one of the sodas and quickly opened it, savoring it's taste.

"Funny, the last time I did that I got an invite to the Brotherhood." Tabby muttered, laughing.

She had Chemistry next and she was seriously considering skipping. Finishing off her drink, she tossed it into a nearby trashcan, then turned a corner, nearly colliding with someone.

Not again. She thought, looking up at the person, only to see that it was...Risty. "Hey..." Tabby said slowly, looking at her curiously.

[Risty]

"Hey..." said Risty, wondering who it was. She had been greeted by practically everyone today, so she wasn't schocked. "Hi... Sorry, forgot your name?" said Risty and chuckled nervously.

She looked at Tabby, hesitating worrily.

[Tabby]

((OOC: I have no idea if Tabby knew Risty was really Mystique, considering God only knows where she went after she left the Brotherhood...so I'm just gonna play it that she didn't. lol))

"Tabitha." Tabby said, taking a step back as she studied the girl. "I thought you went back to England." She blurted; no use beating around the bush, right? Besides, she hadn't known the girl very well even when she was around; she just associated her with Rogue, knowing those two always hung out.

[Risty]

(OOC: Ok, I'm with you LoL))
"Right, Tabitha... You don't know I guess?" she asked, meaning Mystique's masquarade. "Oh, ok..." she laughed.
"No, actually I liked it here in Bayville, so I decided to stay!" Risty decided to play along.

She smiled at Tabby and asked:
"Do you know where chemistry class is? I kinda forgot..."

[Tabby]

"Don't know what?" Tabby asked as she eyed the girl suspiciously; Risty seemed...different than she remembered.

How could anyone like it here in Bayville, mutant capitol of the world? Tabby wondered, looking at her strangely, but quickly brushing it off.

"Right, Chemisty." Tabby mumbled, remembering where she was heading...or not heading. "It's down the hall, third door on the left." She said, pointing; then she sighed.

"Actually, I'm heading that way as well. Come on." Tabby said, giving in and deciding to actually go to class for once.

[Risty]

"Ah, thank you."
Risty thought that what she had said was complete nonsense. Bayville was very disliked because there were so many mutants here, but so what? She was also a mutant!

Risty thought that maybe Mystique was here in town.
"Hey, Tabitha, do you know someone who goes by the name Mystique?" she asked.

[Tabby]

Tabitha immediately froze, turning to look at Risty. Is this girl crazy or something? She looked at her for a minute, trying to figure out if she should tell her anything.

"Yes." Tabby finally said, a little harshly; which was understandable, considering the woman was partially responisble for her leaving the Brotherhood. "Why?" She asked, wondering why Risty would even ask such a thing.

[Risty]

"Do you?" said Risty. "I've..." she wondered if she should tell her or not. "W-We... Have unfinished business." she said in the end.
"She did something horrid and now I'm... Anyway, do you know where she is?"
Risty looked at Tabby.

[Tabby]

Tabby watched Risty as she spoke. She knew the girl was hiding something, but she couldn't imagine what; although if it involved Mystique, she wasn't sure she really wanted to know. Then Risty mentioned that Mystiue did something horrible...which really wasn't all that surprising at all.

"Nope, sorry, haven't seen her in ages." Thank God. Tabby finished in her head. But it was true, she hadn't exactly seen or heard from Mystique since she left the Brotherhood...and that was a while ago.

[Risty]

Risty nodded.
Tabby didn't know where Mystique was, and that was fine, Risty was going to find her one day, and give her what she deserved.
"So, do you also have Chemistry now?" she asked and looked at the blonde.
Risty smiled, at least trying to look friendly.

[Tabby]

Tabitha nodded, stopping as they came to the classroom. She really didn't want to go in, but she'd skipped the past two days so she thought it'd probably be for the best; even if all she did was sit there.

"Yep, unfortunately." Tabby said, walking into the classroom and sitting down in the back by the window; where she could occupy her time by watching the track team.

[Risty]

"Who's... Who's our teacher?" asked Risty, not knowing.
Risty had practically no idea about anything in this school, and sadly everyone thought she did.

She looked out of the window, looking what was happening there.
"So, where do you live?" she asked and looked at Tabby.

[Tabby]

((OOC: Er, this is before I left the X-Men. Alrighty. Sorry, confused for a minute. Lol. Oh, and I'm gonna be gone till the 21st. Just in case you didn't know.))

"Uh, Mr. Krane or something like that." Tabby said, shrugging. This time she really wasn't sure, but that's who it had been for the past few weeks anyway.

Tabitha glanced over at Betsy when she asked her where she lived. It seemed like an odd question, cause she could vaguely remember her coming over to the Institute with Rogue once or twice.

"At Xavier's." She answered slowly, a bit unsure; either Risty lost her memory, or this was an imposter.
