Tabitha had snuck out of the mansion earlier, and with nowhere else to go, headed for the park. It was late, nearly eleven, so the place was pretty much deserted, save for maybe a squirrel or two.
Tabby walked around for a while in silence before coming upon the playground. She walked slowly toward the swingset, taking a seat before starting to slowly swing back and forth. It was a nice night, fairly warm, a full moon peaking out from behind the trees.
Sighing, Tabby took out a cigarette and placed it between her lips, then searched her pockets for her lighter. Once she found it, she clicked it on and lit the cigarette. With the cigarette still firmly in place between her lips, she slid the lighter back into her pocket.
Tabitha smoked in silence for a while, just watching the stars and enjoying the night.

Spyke walked into the park, fooling around with a flaming spike. It was fairly early for him to be coming out of the sewers, But the younger morlocks had gone to bed eariler tonight, and a few of the others were out getting food, So he had left;leaving Scaleface and Caliban to look after the kids.
The unusal teen entered the park and noitced a blonde sitting on the swing set. He smirked realizing it was Tabitha and made his way over to her, realizing she was smoking, He came up with an enterance plan.
He popped a non-flaming spike about as big as a cigarette into his hand. Holding his pointer finger and his middle finger he walked up behind her. "Gotta light?"

Tabby had spaced out and didn't notice that anyone was there. So, when Spyke made himself known, it really came as no surprise that she was taken off-guard, causing her to jump slightly; however, she was able to regain her cool fairly quickly.
Tabby didn't answer him at first, just studied him for a few seconds, her eyes landing on his 'cigarette'. "You're really gonna smoke that thing?" She finally asked, but pulled her lighter out of her pocket nonetheless, an amused expression on her face.
"Be my guest." Tabitha said, holding the lighter out as she took another drag from her own cigarette, waiting to see what he'd do.

Spyke smirked at her and snatched the lighter. "Sure, Why not?" He said and held the spike, along with the lighter out infront of himself. Attempting to light it, again and again. He frowned at the lighter and continued to flick it on and off and on and off, trying to light it.
"So what's up?" He asked her, keeping his eyes on the spike and the lighter. The spike just didn't want to light..

Tabby shrugged, watching his attempt at lighting one of his spikes. A small smile crept it's way onto her face as Evan persistantly tried to get the lighter to cooperate.
"Other than watching you fail at lighting that thing?" She asked innocently, grinning. "Nothing, really." Tabby shrugged, flicking the ashes off the end of her cigarette after another drag. "What's up with you?"

Spyke began grumbling about lighter's and tossed his spike away. Making a flaming spike the same size as the last one, come out of his hand. "Ha!" He said holding the spike in front of her face. "I did it." He said and stuff it into his grinning mouth.
He held the lighter out in the palm of his hand and waited for her to take it. "Nothin' new." He said and shrugged, pulling it back out of his mouth. It didn't really do anything but smoke off of the end, but that didn't matter. He had gotten it lit.

Tabby rolled her eyes and took her lighter back. "Yeah, but you cheated." She informed him, sticking her tongue out at him as she once again slipped her lighter back into her pocket.
"So, you come here often?" Tabby asked after a few moments of silence passed by. True, Tabby had never really gotten to know Spyke that well, but he was here now so she figured what the hell, right?

"Did not." Spyke said and stuck his tongue out at her. "I lit it really fast." He said and smirked.
"Off and on." The teen replied and almost leaned on one of the swing set poles, stopping short realizing he's probably poke a hole in it. "What about you?" He asked and stood up, glancing around the park. Spyke couldn't actually said he went anywhere often, He was in the sewers most of the time.

"Uh-huh. Sure you did." Tabby replied, grinning as she watched him.
"Oh, you know, off and on..." She said, smirking as she flicked her cigarette to the ground and snubbed it out with her foot. True she didn't come here that often either, but she had been here a few times over the past month. "Not so much lately though, Wolverine's got me under lock-down." Tabby told him, rolling her eyes again.

Spyke smirked as she repeated what he had said then nodded. "He's a hard a**." He said and laughed, recalling all of the things he did in and too the mansion, and the punishments. "Did you do anythin' that would make him even more of one?" He asked and tossed his flaming spike at the ground, it stabbed into the dirt and went out.

Tabby shrugged, feigning innocence. "I may have skipped a danger room session...or two." She said, smirking. One or two...more like all of them; she just didn't see the point, really. "Or maybe he did hear about what happened to Scott's car after all..." Tabby trailed off, shrugging as she pretended to think.
"I dunno, but I'm pretty sure that guy hates me." She said, laughing slightly as she pushed her feet off the ground, causing herself to swing higher.

Spyke laughed and glanced around the park, checking for humans. "Danger room sessions.." He said with another laugh. "Sounds fun." He added sarcastically. "What did you do to Scott's car?" He said, with a very interested expression.
Scott's car was the bomb, and everyone seemed to take it, he was still trying to figure out if Scott or Lance's car was taken more; though he had never actually seen in person what happened with Lance's jeep. He had heard it was taken all of the time.

"Oh yeah, tons." Tabby muttered, rolling her eyes. She continued to swing back and forth slightly as she studied him, smirking; then she shrugged.
"Oh nothing." She replied nonchalantly, glancing around the park before finally resting her gaze on Evan again. "Well, I may have driven it through the mall entrance..." Tabby trailed off. "On accident of course!" She defended, grinning.

Spyke watched Tabitha, Waiting for the rest of the story as she said 'Oh, nothing'. There had to be more then 'Oh, nothing' if he involved Scott's, sweet by the way, car and danger room session's. He burst out laughing, as she told him the rest. He had heard someone had driven through the mall, But he hadn't really thought it had been any of the X-Men, I mean who would?
"That's priceless." Spyke said with another laugh, and grinned.

Tabby grinned as well. "I know, isn't it?" She laughed then. "I thought Cyke was gonna have a heartattack when he found out."
It was quiet for a while after that. Not really knowing what to say, Tabby just sat there, swinging in silence. As she did so, her mind drifted, as it often did lately. She had been thinking a lot lately about leaving Xavier's again; it really wasn't working out for her there. In all honesty, she had hoped this time would be different, but it was obvious she wasn't ready for that kind of discipline; although, the Institute did seem to be falling apart lately, what with everyone running amuck and whatnot.
