((OOC: Oh how this miraculously appeared. lol))
Pietro was smirking and pushing himself to run faster. He was gaining on Northstar, but he kept speeding up. So I can run this fast... Dude I can get chicks in other countries... He began to think about the possibilities and his smirk widened, and then he decided to focus on one thing for once in his life.
The teen kept his eyes on the distance between him and Jean-Paul, the distance that was dissapearing by the second.

Jean-Paul hit the ocean his feet moving so fast he stayed on top of the water, he looked behind him, Pietro was coming near him. He loved the feel of the water under his feet and the wind in his hair, they were almost across the ocean.

Pietro saw them approaching the water and was about to slow down when Jean-Paul soared onto it. He wasn't willing to loose the race, but he began to wonder if Jean-Paul had any other powers that allowed him to do this. He'd never actually tried it before, but then again he'd never actually tried fleeing the country to get out of science class either...
Pietro hit the water and laughed outloud as he soared across it and looked over at Jean-Paul. There were only a few feet between them now and Pietro was smirking. Typically he would have been frowning that he was still behind, but he now knew that he could run on water and zip to France and back.
He could see land approaching them and wondered exactly how fast the two of them were going. He was gaining on Jean-Paul, which meant he was going fast, but the sixty mile head start was definitly cutting in to the outcome.

By this pint they had hit land by the land marks he could tell they where almost there. he speed up faster but he knew he could only go faster when flying but he was not about to give up his ace in the hole yet so he slowed down a little to allow Pietro a seance of clam. Jean-Paul was happy that he finally found some one to give him something to do, he was finding life boring, and Pietro was that person to give him that excitement in his life again.

Pietro was suddenly thinking about his father, what would Magneto have to say about this? He'd probably be over joyed that Pietro could travel around the work to do his bidding, and if he could be this useful than his father might finally let him in the Acolytes. Strangely enough that is the exact reason Pietro chose, at that very moment that he was finding all of this out, that he was not going to tell his father.
Pietro wasn't sure wanted to be an Acolyte. Pyro had been right, he was just jumping through hoops to get Magneto's attention, but this sense of freedom made him wonder if he really wanted as much attention as the Acolytes. For now he was fine being the errand boy, and he smirked a little at that thought, and pushed himself faster as Northstar slowed down.

They were neck and neck and almost there, Jean-Paul could feel the froce that Pietro was sending off, he was not going to lose. he lefted himself off the water and floated there, or it seemed like it. He was still moving superfast and slowly moving a head.

Pietro did a double take and narrowed his eyebrows, but didn't say anything in fear of losing energy. He took in a deep breath and tried to push faster. He was actually sweating now, pushing himself run across the ocean and all the way to France was taking its toll, but now he was trying to surpass the new speeds he'd acquired.

"Inyerdreams." Pietro blurted out, taking the question as a taunt and pushing himself to run faster, willing his energy to be entirely in his running and focusing on pushing forward with each and every step.

Pietro coughed and looked around, waiting for the dirt to settle. He could see Jeanpaul back a ways and zipped back to him. "So this is France. Who won?" He questioned with a small smirk. "You can fly, how did you do that? I mean how did you learn to do that? I mean..." The speed demon was at a loss for words. "Your power, you have superspeed, how did you find out there was more to it than that?"

"You won, my friend but it was close, i found out i could fly when i skied i would always stay up in the air and i could ski nude and not get cold. Can't you?" he wondered thinking all speedsters could do what he could.

Pietro shook his head. "No." He said quietly with a confused look on his face. "I just run..." He added on and furrowed his eyebrows in thought. "I wonder why?"
Pietro looked at Northstar hard for a minute. "You're staying with Xavier aren't you." He said in a flat tone. Most mutants looking to advance their powers or better control them went to Xavier, and Northstar seemed like the kind of person that would work for control over his power. Pietro didn't have the option of Xavier's even if he'd wanted to join, not with Magneto as his father.

Pietro frowned slightly, thinking this over. "Magneto's my father." He pointed out, figuring someone would have told Northstar about Magneto when he arrived. "And if you're learning from Xavier, then I can't find out my powers the same way that you are." He explained, an annoyence in his voice that hadn't been there three seconds before.
Pietro wanted so badly to push his powers, somehow. With Northstar he had, and he was really hoping Northstar could help him figure out the extents of his powers. His father however would not go for it. Being trained by an X-Men had to be almost as bad as being trained in the X-Men...
"But..." He started and then stopped, because the plan was too risky and he didn't want to anger his father.
