Petra had wandered about for some time, and had located Logan long enough to tell him Kate Power was there to see him if he wished to bother; she left quickly, though, not willing to be inside the mansion any longer than she had to.  Once outside she too note of more new arrivals, and frowned at the number of mutants and superpowered that weren't actually counted among the X-Men present.  Not a large number, to be sure, and no one deliberately antagonistic to them, but certainly more than she would have been comfortable with.<br/><br/>On the other hand, she amended, what kind of idiot would start trouble at the Xavier Institute itself?<br/><br/>She saw the flashes of energy and light long before she heard them, and she lifted her head, her mutant eyes quivering as the lenses and irises moved and shifted to focus on the distant figure that rapidly came closer.  Her heart sank, and she set the cider down, her stomach tying itself in butterfly-riddled knots.<em>What maniac invited her here?</em>The young woman watched the landing, and glanced back at the mansion....but no, it wouldn't do at all.  A member of X-Force shouldn't have to retreat to safety.  She could handle this; it wasn't as though she was in danger after all.<em>At least, not the kind I won't recover from eventually.</em><br/><br/>Petra forced herself to walk slowly out into the gardens once more, and through she avoided the direct lines of sight to the person who had just arrived, she didn't try to hide either.  She did deliberately avoid the young men Colin Jones was speaking to; that was a disaster waiting to happen, and Petra wanted no part of it, especially with two more horny bachelors present.  Seeing Kate walk up to Gwen and greet her so eagerly was a surprise though.  Apparently she really was all that the other members of X-Factor hinted she was.  And all this time she'd been under the impression Julie was the fey one of the family.
