Scott grinned when he saw Kurt enter; he looked normal...well, normal just like when his image inducer was on, but Scott knew this time it wasn't a projection, it was the real deal. He had to hand it to Apocalypse's machines, they knew what they were doing.
He stepped to the side, when the door opened. Apocalypse laid out his mission plans to him and Scott nodded in understanding. "Got it," he replied, "shouldn't be too hard at all." A blue light in the corner caught his attention, the Eye of Ages, all set to return him to Bayville. He placed his ruby quartz shades on the bridge of his nose and frowned as the world became engulfed in red. Thus was his lot in life, although, with Kurt working for Apocalypse as well he knew he had some kind of haven in their room. Scott walked over to the Eye of Ages and let the light engulf him, sending him home.

As Apocalypse awaits kurt to return from deep within the labyrinth he sends a Telepathic message to Scott " Return to the Sphinx the time has come to begin your training." Apocalypse walks toward a console in the middle of room. He thinks to himself " I pulled this room from Scott, and kurt's mind it seems to serve as a training ground for them. I shall improve on it. and make it worthy of a horseman to train in it."

I just left not that long ago, Scott thinks for a moment before sucking it up and heading to the park where a teleportation device no doubt would appear for him.
Turns out he was right. He stepped into the device and disappeared in a flash of blue. He reappeared inside the Sphinx and made his way to Apocalypse's throne room. "You paged me," Scott asked, as he entered the room.

Kurt slowly walked out of the labrenth chamber. He was completely out of breathe and blood covered him. As he pushed away the shadow that coninued to shrowed his weakend for. "Master I have succeded." Kurt said as he struggled to breath. "Scott what are you doing back?"

Scott's brows furrowed in concern at seeing the blood but considering Kurt was still up and walking he didn't worry too much. What worried him more was the simpering lackey demeanor Kurt had put on...Scott didn't plan on kissing Apocalypse's ancient butt any time soon with such titles as 'master'. Sure, he owed the guy a lot but he wasn't going to give away his own pride to show it. He'd already given enough. In answer to Kurt's question Scott said, "What do you think I'm doing back?" He motioned his head towards Apocalypse, "he told me to."

Apocalypse moves toward the his newest horseman. " The time has come to train you in the ways of old." Apocalypse waves his hand and a chamber door slide open. " I have prepard a course or a right of passage if you will to see how you stand together as a unit." he moves onto the room and turns toward them. " I have used your memories to create A danger room if thats what you called it, but i have made some great improvements to it." As Apocalypses raises his hands the room changes into a forest full of waterfalls and spike pitts.
" The images are real now i have combined the technology of the Ages with the programs I have read in Beast's mind." Apocalypse reaches up and grabs a bird in his hand and crushes it. the bird falls to the ground. " You see no the real test begins because you shall fight against The X-men in this room, and relive the 1st time both of you fought against me."
Apocalypse walks toward them. " I have hidden one item in this vast forest for each of you. This item will aid you in your quest of knowledge and power. Remember you new abilities because they are important in your survial." Apocalypse point toward the room and sits on his throne. "Go now my Horseman and welcome your destiny."

This danger room was serious business...you could die in a place like that. He'd have to make Kurt promise that should he fall his partner would bamf down and get him before he met his maker. He didn't particularly like the idea of having to fight the people he once knew as allies...even if it wasn't really them, he'd had a hard enough time with 'Jean' he really didn't need to mentally deal with this right now.
Scott looked over at Kurt, "Ready when you are," he told him despite his own misgivings. Although the situation might not be cake he knew they had the distinct advantage of working together before on multiple occassions.

Kurt transformed into his mutant form and brought forth his shadowy covering. Without a word he teloported into the room and readied for a fight of his life. Turneing back a bit to look at scott who was still outsdie of the door Kurt exclaimed in his new stern voice, " Come on, ve don ave all day."

Apocalypse watched Kurt transform into his mutant form and he smiled. " They have taken to the new powers well, and now I shall see how they work together and react to the surprizes I have for them." He turns a console to his left on and begins the session. " My the strongest survive!!"

At the words of Apocalypse Kurt smiled with an evil smile, He would survive. He was strong. He thought to himself. He had no doubt that he would prevail. Kurt was a new person all together. He had been changed in more ways then expected. He was no longer the goof off. He was casting away his class clown title. He was ready to prove his power. With a flash he teloported around scanning the area. "Scott hurry up, I von't fail because you are slacking." Kurt yelled back at Scott.

"The next time you get thrown against a wall 6 times and kill your girlfriend then you can talk. Until then I don't want to hear any of your lip." It was the truth as Scott saw it...his back was still a beautiful shade of purple and if he sat still too long his muscles protested at movement. The slice on Kurt's arm couldn't be that bad if he was so quick to jump into another training session.
Scott walked across the room to catch up with Kurt. And took his first step into Apocalypse's Danger Room. The first thing he noticed was the humidity, which seemed to come from out of nowhere...that and the opressiveness of being alone in a 'jungle'.

Kurt yelled back at Scott,"You killed a girl who never loved you and I killed my mother so I win." KUrt then teloported behind Scott and swung from a branch of a tree and kicked Scott in the back, "And don't you ever forget it." Kurt finished as he teloported away aging. when he reappeared he landed hard on the steps of a temple. "Vat is a temple doin here?" Kurt asked himself quietly as he entered the ancient ruin.
Inside stood a grand statue that held two bueatifly crafted swords. Kurt struggled to get them out. After a few moments of trying he finaly released them for the statues grasp. All at once he turned as he heard a noise behind him. The Temple door closed and Kurt could not teloport out. "VAt did I get mine self into this time." he stated as the a door at the back of the room opened and the roof began to cave inward.

"Don't you talk about Jean that way! Like your mother cared sooo much about you," Scott yelled back watching Kurt teleport off. And then it hit...a sharp kick to his back. A yelp of pain escaped Scott's mouth as he fell to all fours, the pain blossoming to consume his entire back. Oh...how he now hated Kurt. "Then do this frikkin' mission by yourself," he spat.
He forced himself back into an upright position and wondered where he should head to next...Kurt had apparently opted for porting off to someplace unknown and within 'two miles'...well, that had been his limit before but Scott had not a clue how far the little bugger could go now...not to mention he didn't know if anything within this jungle could even be considered real distance.

Kurt followed the path down into a chamber where he found many many doors. Kurt just yelled out,"VAt is it vith him and doors." Kurt said as he opened one and closed it after seeing a lake of fire. "Nope not that one." Kurt then continued to open and close doors one after another, discovering more and more crazy other worlds. Finaly he came to a door that lead to another hall. He enetered it and of course the door closed behind him. HE really hated doors by now.

The leader inside of him tried to explain that this was a "teamwork" exercise...pretty hard to accomplish when the team was divided. Scott paid it no never mind and hoped that Kurt came up against a computer generated Jean who would beat the tar out of him.
Figuring that since there wasn't any real destination there could be no wrong way to go he decided to go straight ahead, careful to give any spike pits a wide berth since he didn't think he could save himself from falling to his death. The whoosh of water caught his attention and he headed towards it...
"A waterfall..." Scott looked on in awe at what a little technology could do. Sure, it wasn't as cool as the real thing but it was a pretty good substitute. He walked closer and closer until the sound of pounding water was almost deafening. Curious he brought his powers to the forefront and blasted at the waters, watching them spray outward and revealing...a cave. Shrugging, Scott hopped some rocks, almost slipping on the wet surface of one particularly smooth one, and ducked behind the waterfall, cutting out his eyebeams as he did so. "Sure is dark and spooky in here..." he said, voice echoing deep within the cavern.
