Xaviers!

The ground in the gardens suddenly lurches upwards in a good five foot radius, soon followed by a rocky hand bursting through the topsoil. Finding a root of a tree to grab on to a vaguely humanoid golem pulls itself from the ground, sputtering and swiping at the grassy roots it's covered in as it sheds soil all around itself, slowly turning into a young brown-haired woman wearing an unfamiliar (to some) X-Men uniform that's cut off at the knees and elbows. She shakes her head to get rid of some residual bits of grass and stuff before the general chaos of the skyline catches her attention.

"Oh no... that's propably not good..."

Perhaps more distressing is the smoking luxury flying car bearing down on her.

For a moment she freezes with a choked yelp, then sinks into the ground to her knees while pulling up earth and rock up around herself in a big cocoon of sorts.

The vehicle hits the ground and digs a furrow in the soil before striking the stone cocoon with a screech of crushing metal.

The rock mostly withstands the impact, though it tilts a bit when the car slams into it, metal deforming around the grounded slab of granite.

After a couple moments of the dust settling and the cacophony of the crash dieing down the rock slowly, hesitatingly, shrinks back down to a human figure, anxiously peering over the wreckage in front of her.

The driver side door was suddenly thrown off of the vehicle and a familiar hulk of a lizardman clad in a skin of darkforce pulled himself out. Though did he always have hair and horns, or wear an expensive suit?

"Oh. Sara. Wait... why do you look so young?" he asked, frowning at a torn sleeve.

"Wh-what? John, right...? Is this... you hit me with a car..." she says, not really accusatory and more a little shell-shocked. "And I'm fine?" she adds, patting herself down some.

"Sorry about that. One minute I'm heading here to do a guest lecture, the next all my systems are freaking out and I'm dropping out of the sky."

"You hit me with a flying car..." she realizes. "Where am I?"

"The university... although it seems as though that's debatable," he said, looking at the jumble around them.

"I'll say! One moment I'm going down a tunnel to check out some disturbance with the rest of the team, the next I'm stuck in the bloody ground... And now this. You are John, right? Not his dad or something?"

"I am John," he answered a little distractedly as his mental gears turned. "... temporal anomaly? Dimensional maybe... both?"

"What do we do? Is there something we can do?"

"For starters, we find the other X-Men. If this is what I think it is, there will be quite a few of us."

As he spoke, his armor layer receded.

Sara watches, mouth slightly agape.

"You seem to have some idea of what's going on. Is this the future? This isn't campus. Well... not all of it anyway."

"It looks like several campuses overlapping eachoth... what?" he replied, noticing her expression mid-sentence.

"Nothing, just... I've never seen you without the armor."

"Really? I guess your me hasn't gotten his scales yet. Still a teenager I assume?"

"College student." she says a bit defensively.

"Yeah, I probably would have resented that too. Sorry."

"Let's... get looking. Maybe we'll get lucky and find someone soon," he said, picking a direction and walking.
