A couple of days after the Battle of Wills, a new entry showed up on the hangar schedule indicating an inbound flight equipped for medical would be arriving from Muir. Notes on the arrival indicated that they would be offloading some small cargo and taking on a patient for flight back to Muir.

Surprised about an incoming transport so soon after a prisoner transfer Ashlie looks into the flights details and manifests to see if she can tell what is going on.

Ashlie's used to this by now so it's easy to see Natalie's fingerprints all over the addition. The manifest for the incoming storage seems to be mostly computer parts, largely storage devices and enough that it wouldn't take much to turn them into a nice redundant storage system. The outgoing manifest lists the passenger as 'Natalie Denisov' with notes that she's currently comatose, but not in need of life support.

The storage components make sense, although she's not too happy they were ordered without her knowing. Moving Natalie's body she can only guess at, but in conjunction with the additional storage she suspects Natalie seems to have made a decision regarding her body. And is now making an almost childish gesture of putting it out of reach.

Code: Select all: >> "Natalie."

She sends a ping throughout the network.

Code: Select all: "In the workshop. What do you want?"

Posted: **Tue Feb 12, 2019 4:51 pm**

Code: Select all: >> "I think you know. There's a transport scheduled from Muir."

Posted: **Tue Feb 12, 2019 4:54 pm**

Code: Select all: "Yes, there is. Is this where you tell me you're going to cancel it?"

Posted: **Tue Feb 12, 2019 4:57 pm**

Code: Select all: >> "No. But I would ask you why. And if you don't think you might be overreaching a little in ordering planes around to land in my hangar."

Posted: **Tue Feb 12, 2019 5:02 pm**

Code: Select all: "I can have them land in Southend if it will check the boxes better for you. They're taking my body to Muir. There's a neuroscientist there that has been offering to work with me on my problem."

Posted: **Tue Feb 12, 2019 5:10 pm**

Code: Select all: >> "If that is what you want." >> "And I don't take umbrage with them landing here." >> "It's the extent to which you seem to treat my facilities as your own."

Posted: **Tue Feb 12, 2019 5:13 pm**

Code: Select all: "Well, that will be coming to an end soon as well. That's why they're dropping off the storage equipment. The body and the suit, of course, will remain here, since they are, as you just reminded me, your property."

Posted: **Tue Feb 12, 2019 5:17 pm**

Code: Select all: >> "You're upset."

she seems to realize belatedly.

Posted: **Tue Feb 12, 2019 5:18 pm**

Code: Select all: "No, I'm fucking angry."

Posted: **Tue Feb 12, 2019 5:20 pm**

Code: Select all: >> "With me."

Posted: **Tue Feb 12, 2019 5:22 pm**

Code: Select all: <sarcasm>"No, the pope."</sarcasm>

Posted: **Tue Feb 12, 2019 5:23 pm**

Code: Select all: >> "What is going on, Natalie?"

Posted: **Tue Feb 12, 2019 5:31 pm**

There's a pause on the other end of the conversation that's not that long in real world time but is a pointed eternity in the digital world.

Code: Select all: "I don't think I can trust you anymore."

Posted: **Tue Feb 12, 2019 5:34 pm**

Code: Select all: >> "I've never done anything to deceive you. What brought this on?"

Posted: **Tue Feb 12, 2019 5:38 pm**

Code: Select all: "It's not a 'lie to me' kind of trust. I believe you'll follow the letter of your word. I don't trust your priorities after the situation with Will. I don't trust how you treat your 'property' and I no longer want to be living on your charity."

Posted: **Tue Feb 12, 2019 5:45 pm**

Code: Select all: >> "So you ordered a bunch of storage equipment through my connections with Muir." >> "Look, the Will situation had to be resolved somehow and they were just about at each other's throats." >> "I did not anticipate they would turn it into the mess it ended up as, but I couldn't exactly pull the rug out from under them at the last minute."

Posted: **Tue Feb 12, 2019 5:50 pm**

Code: Select all: "No. I requested the storage equipment via my relationship with Doctor Zhou. The storage equipment is not the school's property in any way, shape, or form." "So, in your opinion, a duel at high noon was the appropriate way to resolve that dispute?"

Posted: **Tue Feb 12, 2019 5:53 pm**

Code: Select all: >> "They were already fighting and I needed a solution they would both actually accept."

Posted: **Tue Feb 12, 2019 5:58 pm**

Code: Select all: "Did you watch the same fight I did? Because it looked like one Will didn't even want to be there."

Posted: **Tue Feb 12, 2019 6:21 pm**

Code: Select all: >> "He didn't have to be. I explicitly told him he should nominate someone to fight in his stead." >> "I was trying to even the playing field."

Posted: **Tue Feb 12, 2019 6:26 pm**

Code: Select all: "There shouldn't have been a playing field in the first place. Even less so once you saw it was out of control."

Posted: **Tue Feb 12, 2019 6:45 pm**

Code: Select all: >> "Nobody was hurt, the safeties were on. It was under control and got resolved." >> "You're not the one who had to deal with those two being at each other's throats." >> "You heard what the other said. He was willing to destroy Will at the hospital." >> "Something had to be done." >> "I will make sure your body is moved to the hangar safely. You can keep my old body and the suit if you wish."

Posted: **Tue Feb 12, 2019 6:52 pm**

Code: Select all: "You obviously didn't read the looks on their faces. That fight may not have damaged bodies, but you wrecked the X-Men." "I already told you, I don't want your property. This is your body. The suit was built with school funds and assistance for your code, so it's yours too."

Posted: **Tue Feb 12, 2019 6:57 pm**

Code: Select all: >> "You're being overly dramatic." >> "The body and suit will be in storage, if you ever change your mind."

With that Ashlie severs the connection.

Xaviers!
