*For once the hide out was empty and if anyone was to think that Aiden wasn’t going to take advantage of that then they had completely lost their minds. She yawned and sprawled out across the first bed she came across, with the exception of her own bed. Whoever’s bed this was would eventually waltz right into the hide out and then get all upset and scream endlessly at her. Then she would simply alter their thoughts so that they became the most relaxed person you could possibly find in the world. Aiden found things like these rather amusing, why she did she hadn’t the slightest clue, however. *

::he wondered around Canada until he came to a place that looked like it was empty. He didn't think people would be in here, but as he opened the door, he saw that it was more than full, it had beds for more than one person. He wondered if this was a place for people to go when they had nowhere else to go. He opened the door more and looked inside, looking around as he did::
Hello?

*Aiden looked confused when the person to enter the hideout was a total stranger. Her pet wolf, Faolan, perked up as well and started to growl warningly at the intruder. Normally the wolf was very friendly, but right now he felt as if his owner needed protecting.*

::he walked in and closed the door, wondering who would be living in this place. When he heard a wolf start to growl, he backed up towards the door. Thinking that if he didn't move, the wolf wouldn't attack him. But just to be sure, he changed his body into it's rock form. He knew that if he was stone, he wouldn't be able to be harmed::
I'm not here to cause trouble, I'm just looking for a place to stay

*Aiden quickly looked into the mind of the scared boy that Faolan had cornered against the wall and sighed, for he was telling the truth. She reluctantly rolled off of the bed that wasn’t hers and rounded the corner to the door where she sharply yanked on Faolan’s collar and sent him a mental message, telling him to stop tormenting the kid and take a nap. The dog instantly obeyed, jumping up on Aiden’s bed an curling up.*
*Aiden gazed back at the stranger, seeing him in his rock form. His body may have been protected, but his mind wasn’t. She wasn’t going to play with him, however. He hadn’t done anythingall that bad.*’
“So you’re a freak too?” *She asked bluntly* “You fit in here just fine then.”

::he was a little surprised to see the girl walk up to the wolf and send it back. He started to feel like someone was in his mind, but couldn't help notice that she wasn't afraid of his rock form. When she called him a freak, he looked at her oddly. His changed his form back to a human, then continued to stare at her::
I'm not a freak, my name's Tokra. And what do you mean by here? What is this place?

*She rolled her eyes when he got defensive.*
“You’re a mutant. By human standards that makes you a freak. However, I take that title with pride, something that few other mutants do.”
*Aiden sighed.*
“Yeah, I know, Tokra Genji. And this is the runaways hideout. It’s pretty basic, you see. We’re a band of mutants who ran away from home and eventually we ended up here.”

oh ok. So this is where everybody who basically has no other place to go comes? What keeps others from coming after them?

"Because I'm sure no one is brave enough to come after us."
Wicked soft voice came from behind Tokra, where Wicked stood, her head slightly tilted to the side as she watched the stranger. Finally she smiled mischievously, noticing that he was speaking with Aiden, another Runaway.
"Well, at least the smart humans stay away. I don't think they would purposely seek us out from our.... reputation."

*Aiden laughed slightly at this.*
"Yeah. Most humans are a bit...chicken when it comes to us, but that's okay because at least they're smart whilst they're chicken. The last one that came here...boy did I have fun with him."
*Aiden laughed at the memory. She had made the intruder believe that he was dancing in a field of mushrooms and cabbage.*

::he jumped when Que appeared behind him. He turned and looked as she spoke about humans being afraid of them, then looked to Aiden as she spoke::
So people aren't allowed to come here? At least not humans? That doesn't make it very good when it comes to getting along with them.

*Aiden sighed and shook her head at Tokra's idiocy.*
"The only reason we don't want humans here is because humans don't want us to exist period. They shouldn't be allowed to come to the only place where we're accepted for ourselves when they don't want us to be anywhere in the world at all. Fair is fair."

::he had to admit, she had a point. Everyone seemed out for blood on mutants lately, and he could only think about his parents and hope that they're safe::
Not all humans are like that. I'm sure there's some that don't mind mutants being around

Wicked laughed lightly, slowing pulling her gloves off, she was going to give this stranger a.... demonstration on why humans didn't come looking for the Runaways.
"No, we don't keep them away. It has nothing to do with them accepting us or not. We stay away because most of us can't live around humans. For example."
She reached out and touched the door frame with her bare hand. There was a moment where everything seemed to still, then the door frame changed, turning to solid iron instead of wood. After a second she withdrew her hand and regloved it.
"Most of us have powers where they can't be turned off and on. We stay away to protect the humans. I change any matter touching my skin, other then clothes but that's because I always have to concentrate and keep them as one matter. There are others as well. One girl's power will start to melt her surroundings based on her emotions. Another will turn anyone who meets her gaze to stone. Would you like me to continue?"

*Aiden shrugged, for they all had different reasons for being here. If she wanted to Aiden could live among humans, but she chose not to and stayed with the runaways to keep away from the humans. True, on an occasion her powers had backfired on her and left her out cold for a week or more, but she didn't let it bother her.*
"We all have our reasons for being here. Most of them do stay here to protect the humans but I'm here because I don't want to be surrounded by people who are constantly thinking of how awful I am and how they would give anything to have a world free of people like me."
