"It will be fashion for the summer, so Paige's gonna be one of the first!" Betsy laughed. "Does she also live here? What's her power?"

Ray rolled his eyes. He didn't worry much about "fashion". "Yeah, she lives here," he said, perking up now that he got to talk about her; "Well, her power's pretty cool actually, even though she doesn't think so. Like, her skin, it comes off to reveal a new layer. When I first met her, it was doing that, and she turned into glass. It was crazy cool..." his voice trailed off as he thought; "Even her hair changes. And once, when she was pissed, she turned into magma. That was crazier. Just poof! Instant Magma-girl. But, that's only happened once, thank goodness," he added.

"Wow..." Betsy looked at him. "That's... Cool." Instantly she imagined what Ray desrcibed. "Just shape-shift is cool, but glass, that's awsome!" She laughed.

"I know, right?" Ray said; "That's what I keep telling her. But Paige, she's so darn selfconscious about it. I mean, I've seen some crappy mutations, really bad ones. But hers is awesome... you know she looked like one of those expensive glass figurine thingies, like the ones you could find in a music box? That's what she looked like. I just wish she could realize that."

Betsy laughed. "When are you coming back? Who except you and Paige are going?" Life at Xaver's seemed like something was happening all the time.

"Um... just me, Paige, and Sam I think...." Ray replied, voice trailing off as he thought; "But, I'm going into a gauntlet. Paige said she's got another older brother, well, maybe two, and Sam'll warp 'em before I even get a chance to defend myself." He laughed lightly, but it was forced.

Betsy smiled. "That's good. Visiting your family. I wish I could also say thesame. Paige and Sam can consider themselves lucky!" She sighed.

"Not my family," Ray muttered; "Hey, 'least you don't have to hunt your folks down, ya know? Be thankful for that, at least..." he went back to packing, suddenly not sure about the conversation. Ray wasn't one to talk about it very much.

Betsy sighed. "i guess we have that in common..." For a moment she sat quiet, she noticed that this wasn't Ray's favorite topic. "So, what kind of music do you like?"

At this, Ray's mood perked up a bit as he replied; "Mostly Rock. Mest is my favorite band though. But I like Jim Morrison, too. What kinda music you listen to?"

"Ehm..." Betsy looked up in the celling. "Mostly Japanese Pop. I've just learned Japanese and try to get it sound even more Japanese. You know, the accent? Jim Morrison? He's cool! My twin brother loves him" She laughed.

Ray's eyebrow rose a little with her answer, but he let it slide. To each their own, after all; "Accent?" he asked, then he shrugged; "I guess, but why would you wanna cover up an accent with another one?" His question was just one of curiosity, not scrutiny.

Betsy laughed. "No, but I've got a slight British accent in my Japanese, and I'm trying to get it perfect. I was supposed to do a model job in Japan but my dad sent me here, do I guess I won't be modeling for a while! And I'll never get rid of my British accent in English!"

"Uh-huh," Ray said, still not exaclty getting why. But, he figured that was a good enough explanation, and if he wanted, he would think about it later; "So... can ask you a question, I mean, seeing as how you're a 'model' and all?" he asked, smirking a little as he eyed her.

Betsy smiled back at him. "Got the looks!" she joked. "No, but it all started that I was modeling clothes as a little girl, really little. I think I was 2 or something... Anyway, then when I was 16 my agent gave me a call and asked to jump in as a model at a catwalk in France, for that other model couldn't make it. Er, a guy for a very big modeling agency "saw" me and made me a supermodel. That's about it!" She stretched. "But I haven't been modeling for a while. I'm sure my dad 's gonna tell them I'm a "freak" and then I guess I'm out..."
