Shrikes asked as he landed, setting down a pair of twins who couldn't have been more than six.  More than a dozen students were coming up behind him.   Of course he was hard to understand with a protein bar firmly clenched in his teeth.  "Short version?  It's a fire drill but the foyer is actually on fire.  Long version?  The foyer is on fire because the school is under attack again and Headmistress Monroe wanted us to get you all to safety.  Feel better?  Didn't think so."<br/><br/>He wasn't a particularly impressive sight.  Barely five feet tall, he couldn't be described as intimidating.  If it hadn't been for the  body armour of the same colour, he might have been taken for one of the younger students.  Certainly he belonged here; with a set of twelve foot wings he was clearly a mutant.  If he hadn't caught her in midair and landed effortlessly, Rush might even have dismissed him as a scout, rather than a combatant.  He'd certainly proven his manoeuvrability, if not his combat ability.<br/><br/>He's telling the truth," said the twins, speaking in eerie unison.  "It's the Phoenix.  She killed professor Xavier.  She's a very powerful telepath.  Much more powerful than we are."<br/><br/>Chris looked at the two of them, his blue eyes widening.   He hadn't been able to find Psylocke on the upper floor but if the Phoenix was such a powerful telepath, maybe he needed t take a second look.  He jammed the rest of the protein bar in his mouth, chewing furiously.<br/><br/>
