The blond daughter of Quicksilver grumbled to herself as she rummaged through the CDs to be found in the music store at the mall. She was so excited to hear her favorite band from back home came out with a new album...But it was nowhere to be found on the shelfs. Finally fed up the blond went to the counter to ask for help. "Umm yeah, I'm looking for the new Lasgo album?" She asked the young lady behind the counter, her accent showing that she definitely grew up just outside of London.
"Sorry...That won't be for sale in the states for another three months." Juliette was definitely not happy with the answer that was given. "Oh well, thanks anyways." She replied with a sigh before walking out of the store into the main area of the mall.
As she walked she pulled out her cell phone and dialed up her mother's number. " 'Ello mummy." She said with a smile. "Could you do me a favor?" She asked as she walked along, not paying much attention

The mall argh...Graft hated the mall. All the steel, concrete, glass, and the only nature around was the potted plants. He grew up always outside always playing outside of Xaviers with his parents and sister. Now adays he spent most of his time just basking in the sun.
He was at the mall picking up some stuff for his sister, some CD's, some school stuff. He had a list and almost thought about ditching it so he could go transform and go out, but he said he would do it. He couldnt wait for the year to be over and to be done with school and join the ultimates.
He sat on a bench and looked up threw a glass window to the sky and took a deep breathe in. He always felt better after a bit of sunshine.
Because of his powers he could sense whenever someone else with powers was near, but never was discipline enough to pinpoint the person just a general area kind of thing. He went to get up but knocked into a blonde girl on a phone.
Falling back into the bench he said " *umph* ouch, sorry bout that miss..."

"Bollucks!" She muttered to herself as her phone slipped from her hand from the impact of what she assumed was her running into the guy since she knew she wasn't paying much attention to where she was going. When the phone made contact with the ground the battery popped out. 'Guess I'll have to ask mum to send over the album later' she thought to herself as she bent down to pick up the phone and it's power source.
"Nah it's alright, I wasn't looking." She replied in a distinct English accent as she looked up to see the guy she bumped into. If she had seen more action with the brotherhood, or if he were a full member of the team and not just a student she might have recognized him...but she didn't, all she was was a somewhat attractive guy who she was clumsy enough to bump into. Oh well, could be worse, her temper could have gotten the best of her...

Now that he made contact with her he could tell that she was one off the power sets that he was sensing. He took off his sun glasses he wore that hid his black eyes, and red pupils. Normally he wore them because he got the impression normal people were wierded out by them.
"Don't worry about it. I was spralled out on the bench anyway." he wondered what her powers could be, that was a little game he played with himself, he wouldnt come out and ask her, he didnt like to pry into peoples buisness " So what album were you looking for? and by the way i like the accent? British?"

Juliette smiled a bit at the comment about her voice. "Actually yes...London to be specific." She said as she tucked her long wavy blond hair behind her ear. "I was looking for the new Lasgo Album...Of course it won't be out in the states for a few months." She paused and just shrugged a bit. "I'll just have mum send it over." Though she'd never admit it, Juliette was rather spoiled, she almost always got what she wanted...Her daddy was wrapped around her little finger, and mom...Well since she doesn't get to see her baby girl too much anymore she trys to send money and gifts as much as possible now.
After a moment or two she noticed the color of his eyes and her smile just grew. "I love your eyes." She said with a slightly absent expression, it was just something she needed to say before it got to the point where it would be odd for her to say it. "...I'm Juliette." She said as she held out her hand to the obvious mutant.

"Well its nice to meet Juliette, I'm Jason" he said shaking her hand. "And i have no idea what group that is." he said standing up and putting his glasses back on. " Well as much as i enjoy laying about i do have to get a move on." he said putting his hands in his coat pockets. " your more than welcomed to tag along if you think you can keep up."

She just smirked with pride at the comment that he'd never heard of the band. "They are mostly only known in Europe." She informed as shewatched him put his glasses back on, slightly dissapointed he was hiding his eyes once again.
"I'm pretty sure I can keep up." She said with a smug look, wondering if he was a speedster like her and her dad. "And you shouldn't hide your eyes like that...They're rather lovely...Who care what the humans think, you should be proud of what you are...I know I am."

" ah so you are a mutant huh? I had a hunch" he said taping his head then his heart. " I'm dont have that many bands I like, just some easy listening stuff ray charles, Nat king cole and such." he said with a shrug.
" what ever sounds nice when i lay about in the sun. I'm just here for some stuff for my sister but I think its going to be cheaper to get it online, and i dont have any way to get it back to our room and I'm not carrying it all that way" he said putting his hands back into his coat.
He didnt comment on why he hid his eyes for a bit thinking for the best way to explain himself. "and thanks for the comment about my eyes. I hide them not because I'm ashamed, quite the opposite actually. I cant wait to be done with school to try out for the Ultimates. I hide them because well....not to sound like a wimp, but i dont want to cause any problems. Say i dont wear the glasses, most people would either look away, but there are some that would just want to cause trouble. Now I'm the kinda person that probably wouldnt hold back in a fight and with my gifts it wouldn't be pretty. Any of this making sense Jules?"

Juliette nodded as she listened to the mutant. "So you can sense others like us? That's always a useful ability to have." She said with a smile. His idea of a pass time did sound fun to her...nothing better then tanning on a nice warm day, but she was sure that's not what he meant. "Yeah, that's the problem with the states, good music always seems to come late." She said as she crossed her arms, sticking her tongue out at the music store.
Her smile however, soon faded when she heard what Jason had planned for his future. "You mean you actually want to help those...monkeys!?....And don't call me Jules...Only my father can call me that." She said with a harsh look in her eyes and a harsher tone in her voice. She had half a mind to show him just who she was right here. But that would make daddy angry and the only reason she was here was to make Quicksilver proud of her.

" Well not exactly 'sense'. Its a bit complicated but I have a few tricks up my sleeves." he said in a playful tone.
When she got mad for being called Jules he threw his hands up in a mock self defense pose. " My apologies Juilette. I didn't mean anything by it. " he walked next to her and playfully nudged into her to try and lighten the mood. " And as you so gently put it, yeah i kinda do want to help people out, human and mutant though and the Ultimates is as neutral as a place I c an get without any political or other agendas now that they separated from SHIELD and the US government and a self sustained group." Once they reached outside he took off his coat went around back where no one else was at the moment, and turned off the Image inducer he wore. The scales that ran down the back of his neck, and along his shoulders and arms where now visible. He took off his glasses again, but closed his eyes and soaked up some sun. He scales shimmered in the sun from green to blue to turquoise and every color in between.
" Look at the X-men and the brotherhood. Don't get me wrong I'm not saying one's better than the other, each has valid points and opinions but each could do a few things different. Thats why to me the ultimates is a much better choice, help everyone humans and mutants alike. Did you know there are mutants on the team already?"
