Eli had heard about the Xavier Mansion, from people on the streets of New York. So he grabbed his bags and skateboard and made his way towards the Mansion. After a while of traveling, by board, he got to the Xavier Mansion about 7pm when the sun was setting. Once outside he admired how big the place was. He had noticed a huge gate, so he decided to uses his powers to get through. So Eli got off his board and picked it up, and turned himself and his items into a shadow, and moved along the ground unnoticed and undetected, at a fast pace. Once he got to the front door, Eli stopped using his powers and reverted back to human with his bags and board in hand. He then looked at the big door and then said to himself "i know its kinda late, but i hope they won't turn me away at this hour, i have no where else to go." He knocked a few times on the door, and followed that with ringing the doorbell. He then stood there on the front steps to see if anyone would come to the door to let him in.

The wedding plans were almost complete. Sure, it'd taken longer then Mairead would have liked, but at least now they had a date and everything planned. So... All she had to do now was wait... Sadly patiences wasn't something Mairead was known for. The woman was growing more and more twitchy by the moment. And when she got twitchy.... Bad things happened.
Train wasn't around to control his temperamental fiancée, so she was left to her own devices, trying to find something to entertain her. And with Mairead? It quite literally meant she was going to probably hurt someone... Or seriously mess with their head. Currently, Mairead was leaning towards the seriously mess with their head option. It was fun, and far to easy with a power like hers. After all, she was the reason so many students believed in 'ghosts'....
The doorbell rang.
Sadly, Mairead seemed to be the closest person to the door, just down the hall from it. She stared in the direction of the entrance for a few moments, waiting to see if anyone would come running to answer it. No one. Grinning like a fool she approached, until she stood just on the other side of the wood. She didn't open it though. The guest would feel a cold breeze against his skin, raising goosebumps. It wasn't because of the cold though, it was just the feel of something... unnatural. Something paranormal that put the living on edge.
Whooooos there...?
The voice he heard was just as spooky as the breeze, the words faded as if coming from centuries past.... And sounded.... Haunted.

Eli waited a bit on the other side of the door, before, he tried to look in through a side window of the door. He couldnt really make out anything on the inside, but he could see slight movement. Was it a person? was it a animal? was it a machine? was it his imagination? Eli didnt know, but he then felt a chill, and then heard a spooky voice. He wasnt one to believe in ghosts, or anything scary. And he remembered where he was, he knew this was one of 2 things which were :Either, this was a mutant playing tricks on him, or some high tech security system. He went with that its most likely another mutant and that mutant is playing games with him. He then got a idea to play back. Since it was kinda dark out, he smirked a little before picking up his board and screaming "HELLLPPP!" And then scratched his skateboard up and down the door, so it sounded like someone was trying desperately to get into safety. He then used his powers and grabbed all of his stuff, and turned into a shadow on the ground. Since it was dark out, no one would be able to see him in his shadow form, or be detected by any kind of equipment.

Corbin was in a bit of a situation, he was in a reality that wasn’t his own, he wasn’t even sure if he would run into an alternate version of himself or if he even existed in this reality. The one thing he knew was he needed to try and find out if there was an X-Mansion in this reality, the one place he could be safe was the Xavier Institute. Luckily there was an article about the Institute in today’s paper, and judging by the picture it was in the same place as his reality. With a target Gloom was on the move. Traveling by nighthe made his way to the X-Mansion. Obviously Professor Xavier was alive at least at some point to create his institute. Gloom hoped that he was alive and well, Professor Xavier has always been very kind to him as he was to nearly everyone. When Gloom finally teleported to the front gate of the mansion he knew he would have to be fairly careful as to how he got in. With a soft “bamf” noise and a puff of smoke he teleported to the front door of the mansion.
His 3 toed feet sore and callused from traveling without shoes he knocked on the front door looking around with shining yellow eyes he had the feeling he wasn’t alone, he shook the feeling and knocked on the front door his travel bag sling over his shoulder, it held some clothes he was forced to steal along with food he had also stole from a market. With no idea if any of his family was even in existence he did what he had to in order to survive. Again Gloom had the feeling he wasn’t alone, looking around he asked “Is anyone there? My name is Corbin. I need help I have nowhere else to go, can someone let me in?” Gloom knew that the door camera would be recording him so maybe someone watching the security cams could tell someone to let him in.

Mairead didn't seem at all concerned with the sudden panic from the guest. If anything she looked a little bored by it as she reached up to cover a fake yawn. Anyone watching would probably roll their eyes, deciding the woman would stop tormenting the guest sooner or later.
A few moments passed, and the ruckas stopped. Reaching out with her powers against, she realized she couldn't see the person anymore. Huh.... Where'd he go? Thankfully, right around that moment another person seemed to appear. It wasn't in the way you'd think though. With her powers active she saw the man appear. He looked freakishly like Nightcrawler.... But not quite.... What the hell?
Mairead stopped her tormenting for the moment, and opened the door right before he could even knock on the door. She stared at him, a curious look on her face as she took her own sweet time examining him. Yup. Very Nightcrawler like. Same build, same eyes, same skin, same amount of appendages... But the face was different. Now she was confused. "Who the hell are you?" She didn't bother with formalities, before her gaze looked around him, searching for the other visitor. "Where'd the other guy go?"

Eli waited int he shadow form in the darkness waiting for the door to open. He could still see everything going on around him. He then noticed a man appear out of no where. He looked like a mutant, he's seen and heard of, and wondered if that was him, but he then thought, wouldnt he of just teleported inside instead? he then noticed that the door opened and a girl walked out, looking at the new guy, and then looking for him. Eli laughed a bit, but made it unheard by anyone. He then moved as a shadow to behind the girl, and then reverted back to normal with his stuff and board in his hands. He smirked and dropped his bags and board kinda loudly, behind her, and said, "Im right here, where did you think i was?" He smirked a little and looked at the two people. "This is the Xavier institute, correct? i was told that, this is the place that mutants go, so they feel like they have a p-lace, to go. Well im on my own, im a mutant, and i need someplace to belong, and i was wondering if i could stay here." He looked around the inside of the building, liking the size he saw.

Gloom was taken aback with how direct and a little rude the woman was when she answered the door but maybe people didn’t understand manners in this reality. “This is going to sound a little strange but I’m Corbin Wagner my mother is Talia Wagner, and my grandfather is Kurt Wagner. I’m not even sure they exist in this reality but you may know grandpapa Kurt as Nightcrawler of the X-Men, my mother is Nocturne of Excalibur. I’m not exactly from this reality; Franklin Richards and I were trying to use my powers to time travel. Franklin is the son of Mr. Fantastic? He made a miscalculation and I teleported to this reality. I need to see Professor Xavier he will know I’m telling the truth I don’t have anywhere to go.” When the shadow boy appeared behind the woman and dropped his stuff on the ground Gloom was so startled he accidentally teleported off the ground a few feet only to fall on his rear.
“Whoa man give a guy a little heads up before you go around doing that!” Gloom stood dusting off his backside, his tail flicking back and forth in agitation. Gloom readjusted his shoulder pack and brushed some of his indigo hair out of his eyes. “I don’t know if that’s your “other guy” or not but he seems to be in a similar situation.” Gloom looked around the woman into the mansion, it seemed to be very similar to his X-Mansion a few pieces of furniture were moved around but the decor was the same, warm and inviting. Gloom turned back to the woman and shadow boy “Mind if I come in? I could use a nights sleep on a bed instead of a park bench or a tree branch.”

Mairead wasn't very jumpy, but when you did manage to startle her... Well it wasn't a good idea. The moment she heard the thud behind her, he would feel like a weight was suddenly on his chest. Not a physical one, but more like.... Heavy with something supernatural. Slowly she turned her head to stare at him, smirking, as he would feel cold clawed finger tips against the back of his neck. They didn't break skin, it was more like a warning, saying she could if she wanted. The freakiest part though, was that the claws weren't visible. "You know, you shouldn't scare me. You just might find yourself haunted." Her power, once you made the connection, was easy to understand. She was a poltergeist, quite literally.
Finally her attention was drawn back to the blue-man-who-looked-like-Kurt-but-wasn't. A moment passed and he started speaking again. And Mairead? She just stared at him like he was nuts. "Yeah.... Fun. Let's go tell Kurt he has a daughter and a Grandson. That ought to brighten his mood." She paused for a moment, suddenly grinning. "Actually, you two are probably the same age, so this should be fun." Suddenly she paused, as if remembering something. "Oh, dammit, I forgot. Kurt isn't here. To bad." None the less, she stepped out of the way, motioning for him to enter. At least this teleporter had the decency to wait outside until invited in.
"I'm not the welcoming committee, so you'll get no grand tour from me. And Xavier isn't in much shape to talk right now, he's still recovering. But, seeing as we have to shelter all mutants seeking refuge." She sighed. "I, being an X-woman, am forced to play nice... well nicer.... As long as you don't do anything out of line."
