Ayden truly missed the mansion. She occasionally racked her mind to get in touch with Faolan, who had become depressed beyond belief. The only one he spent time with anymore was Anya every once in a while. Her plan had been to go away for a while, maybe a month, and force Faolan to spend time with David, hopefully bringing them close again, but that didn’t happen because David had left before she did.
She was renting a tiny apartment with the necessities and witnessing at a small bar called Merlotte’s thanks to a fake ID card. The bar served all ages so she met plenty of people, even ones her own age, but no other mutants. Occasionally, she would use her telepathy to make a comment on someone’s thoughts to freak them out. It became her form of entertainment.
It was a typical night shift. Was. Upon a familiar sight, she dropped onto the ground, making a mess of the tray she was carrying. Toby, a bartender, peeked over the bar at her and made a sarcastic comment, which she discarded, pretending she had tripped and was busy cleaning. He boss would be mad, but it could have been worse.

He felt like a jerk, not being able to apologize for what he had said and how he acted. Faolan even began to grow closer to him as the days wore on, and their bond had regained it's strength. He didn't think much about Ayden after a while, until the day he walked into his room and saw the picture he had thrown away still sitting there. He picked it up out of the trash and looked it over again, placing it into his pocket.
He headed out of the door, leaving a note on it saying he would be back soon. He decided to go looking for her to try and make amends, but nothing turned up so far. He was about to give up when the smell of food caught his attention. He realized how hungry he was and decided to go into the bar to get something to eat before heading back. As soon as he walked in, he heard the sound of something hitting the floor.
He looked over, seeing a cleaning up the mess and shook his head. He walked over to a nearby table and sat down, giving his order to a waitress who came up. She smiled at him, and he was only able to give a small smile in return before looking back at the table. He took out the photo once more, then set it back into his pocket. He wondered if she was really gone for good, and had just left Faolan behind.

Ayden didn’t know what to do. She couldn’t avoid him forever and she couldn’t just leave work without getting into trouble and trouble was the last thing she needed. She couldn’t alter the memories of all the staff. Well, she could have, but she would have rather not. She noticed David sit down out of the corner of her eye and exhaled a helpless sigh before standing up, being sure the pile of mess on the tray hid her from him.
Once she was in the kitchen, Toby followed her and demanded to know what the deal was. She insisted it was nothing and he finally dropped it, returning to his post. Her boss lectured her about how she was paying for that party’s dinner and Ayden did all she could to not roll her eyes. Quickly, she had the replacement food. The party wasn’t far from David and she kept her face hidden by their food. She gave them their food and asked if they needed anything else, cheating a bit and ensuring that David didn’t hear her. On top of that, she made him see a blond pony tail rather than the red one that was really there if he ever looked up.
One of the men in the party made an inappropriate comment and she ignored it, turning around only to have him spank her hard, a loud cracking noise splitting the air. She pressed forward, knowing that if she confronted the customer, she would get in trouble.
“At least you know you’re hot.” Toby asked as he got the bottled beer the man had asked for.

It was a hard day today, worrying about everything that's been going on. Everything seemed to weigh down on him and he still couldn't find Ayden anywhere. He heard a from behind him and turned in time to see the a man laughing about slapping the 's rump. He watched the blond disappear into the kitchen, giving the man one last look before sighing and shaking his head.
"Hey kid, you got a problem?"
He heard the man ask him, but he just smiled at the waitress as she handed him his food, cheeseburger with a side of onion rings. He heard the men behind the table laughing, getting the sudden feeling that things were about to get complicated soon. Usually when he gets those feelings, he was right, but for now he would just eat and leave things be.

David’s waitress, a middle aged woman named Maureen, pulled Ayden aside just as she was about to rush off to the other side of the bar to hide herself from David. “Sugar, you’ve been acting strange ever since that young man at table five came in. Do you know him or something?”
“’Course not, Maureen.” she snapped, collecting her tray, which was loaded with cocktails. “I’m just havin’ an off night is all.” Ayden was getting a bit irritated with her voice. Her southern accent had been becoming more and more obvious since she had left the school.
She knew that she was just trying to avoid David. Once she was around the corner where she thought David couldn’t see her, she dropped his illusion. She couldn’t motivation a person’s mind for long if she didn’t want to be tired, especially when she was already tired.

Things were starting to get a little weird where he was concerned. He watched the girl head back into the kitchen, followed by the waitress that had served him. He continued to eat his food, drinking his soda every once in a while. The guys in the table next to him were continuing to laugh and talk about the waitresses, which seemed to bug him more then he thought it would.
He decided that a place like this would make him uncomfortable if he stayed here any longer, so he flagged down the waitress that served him and asked for a "to go" container. He continued to eat as she walked into the kitchen, drinking down the rest of his soda and getting money out from his wallet to pay for the food he purchased.

Ayden was finally off the clock. She hurried into her street clothes and walked out into the open, hoping that David wasn’t still there. He was. But the party who she wanted to snap at was getting ready to leave. She wasn’t going to just let them walk away. Without meaning to, she let down the filter she had placed in David’s mind and slapped the man who had spanked her right upside the head.
“I’m not workin’ anymore so I can do whatever I want. You slap me, or any other waitress here on the ass again and you won’t be able to get turned on because I will cut itoff! Do you understand me?”
The man nodded nervously and Ayden smiled.
“Have a good night.”

The waitress had handed him his to go container and paid the waitress, letting her keep the change since there wasn't much that he gave her and she had given him good service. He heard a slap behind him and rolled his eyes, thinking that the guys were at it again, but when he heard a girl with a southern accent threatening to "shorten" the man's ego, he chuckled a bit.
That's one way to settle a bunch of drunks he thought to himself with a chuckle, feeling a few of the guys glaring at him as he got up to leave. He just looked back at the man, taking a small glance at the waitress as he did. She looked familiar, but he couldn't really tell why due to her hair style and the way she spoke.
He then headed towards the door, overhearing a few of the guys saying something about "taking care of him outside.". He smirked, wondering why it was always the drunks that thought they could take him on. He debated shortly whether or not to use his powers to handle them if they tried anything, but decided it was better to play it cool...for now.

Ayden pulled her hair out of her ponytail and shook it around before teasing her scalp with her fingernails to give it body and keep it from sticking to her scalp. She paused when she felt David’s eyes upon her. She was tempted to turn and face him head on, but she didn’t.
She walked to the bar and asked Toby to give her her bag, which was hidden under the bag. He had a crush on her and she knew it. She didn’t need to be a mind reader to see it. She however was in no mood to be called on.
She heard the same man who had spanked her comment on taking care of David before his thoughts ran through her head. ’I’m gunna rip out his lungs and brains and feed it to my dog and watch him rip it across the room. No one laughs at me.’
“Well that’s too bad, sugar, I think he just did. I don’t blame him either.”
She smiled leaving him flabbergasted as she went out the door.

David walked outside into the parking lot, hoping to make it out of the place before trouble happened. Too late, for as soon as he was in the middle of the parking lot, he heard the door open behind him and a group of footsteps coming out in a hurry. Within moments he was surrounded by the guys who sat at the table next to him, smelling the alcohol on their breath.
"You think it's funny to laugh at people? How funny would you think it'd be when I bash your face in?"
"Look I don't want trouble," he started, but then just smirked, "but I needed a laugh watching a bunch of drunks get talked down to by a lady."
He smirked, readying to activate his powers at a moments notice. The guy infront of him looked to his buddies and laughed, hoping to get a sucker punch in. When the punch was thrown, it hit David's face with a . However, the didn't come from David's face, but instead came from the mans hand. David's body changed into his stone form right when the man's fist touched his face, which was now broken and bleeding badly."
"You really should watch what you hit, don't want to be breaking any bones do you?"
The horrified expression on the faces of the men around him was one he wished he could take a picture of. They all backed away and began running around and over each other, running from David as his form changed back to normal. He could hear "the dude's a mutant!" and "Let's get out of here!" as the men disappeared down the street. He just smirked, wiped away a bit of the that was still on his face and kept going.

Ayden was on her way home when she heard someone yelling that someone else was a mutant. She couldn’t help but think that David had gotten himself into trouble. In the mens’ run, they didn’t seem to notice her and she was trampled onto the ground. One of the men stopped himself when he saw her face.
“You waitress bitch! You set us up.”
“I did no such thing. And while I am merely a waitress, you will talk to me like the lady that I am.”
His eyes seemed to go blank suddenly as he was enveloped by her every word. She was manipulating his mind. Glamouring him in a sense.
“Now, I want you to go back to your apartment. An’ I want you to tell your wife and kids that you love them and that they deserve so much better than you. Then I want you to remember every day how lucky you are to have them in your life, and I don’t want you to do stupid shit like this anymore.”
The man nodded and turned to go, but Ayden caught his wrist.
“One more thing. I want you to scream somethin’ at the top of your lungs at the next person you see or else that person will rip your lungs out, but if you do what I say they either make a strange comment or look at you like you’re an idiot.”
She pulled his face close to her and whispered what he was supposed to scream and then he was on his way. Ayden pulled herself into the shadows and waited. However, she wasn’t expecting the first person he ran into to be David. She cursed under her breath and tried to tell him to back off, but it was too late. The man went up to David and screamed “I’m a fuckin’ pervert with a huge boner for Jesus!”
Ayden couldn’t help it. She tried to hold back a fit of giggles, but it was too late.

He watched as the men ran down the sidewalk, chuckling as he did. Though he was a little concerned when they knocked over the waitress, he continued walking in the other direction. It wasn't until that same man who confronted him earlier walked up and yelled something that made David give him an odd look.
"Ok, I'm done."
WHACK! David drew his fist back and slammed it into the guys face. He smirked at the crooked little smile the man had before dropping unconscious to the ground. He shook his hand absently as he continued his walk, finding hitting people alot less painful in stone form then human.

Ayden was surprised when David punched the man. He had never really been violent before. However, when he began walking in the opposite direction of her apartment, she was relieved. She entered his mind from a distance and wiped his memory of David to ensure that he wouldn’t get him into trouble.
It was then that she heard it. Music was blasting from her appartment. She couldn't help but to smile. Her roommates were waiting for her to get home so that they could go to a Halloween party. Ayden thought it was a bit early to be having a Halloween party, but she never passed up a chance to wear her costume.
She rushed into her room, the other girls barely giving her roommates enough time to tell her they were going to a Halloween party and she was going too even if she didn't want to. She pulled on a short skirt and a red corset before putting in her fangs, followed by fishnets and thigh high stilleto boots. She loved that Halloween gave her the chance to be slutty. Her roommates clearly felt the same. She messed up her hair before walking out and smiling, flashing her long fake fangs to the others. Melinda was a fairy and she needed to be careful to not bend over in front of the wrong person. Krissy was Eve, which made her the most slutty of the three, but that was no shock. Krissy was the biggest slut Ayden had ever met. When they hit the street, Ayden cuss under her breath and hid behind Melinda and Krissy, hoping David wouldn't see the vampire through the fairy and Eve.

David looked at his watch and saw that it was time to get back to the mansion. He promised Tim that he'd be there for the school's first Halloween party, and couldn't help but smile about it. Everybody had tried to get Xavier to let them throw parties on the holidays, but nobody succeeded. For some reason, though, Tim had single handedly changed Xavier's mind as well as the faculty. Needless to say Bobby, Ian and himself were more then happy to help out.
Wonder what I'll be, I haven't really dressed up since trick or treat with Megan.
He thought about the many things he could be, and wondered how he was going to get a good costume. As if on cue, he walked past a halloween shop that was only open durin the season. With a smile, he walked in and began looking around, seeing all sorts of masks and makeup that would make him look scary, weird, funny or freaky. He decided to go classic, grabbing a bag that was hanging from the hooks. He'll be a zombie for Halloween.
