Matt had just gotten past the guards at the front, gaining himself a new power. The telepathy of the guard. He thought that what better way to show his power, then by showing the guard's! He was in the club and walked over to the bar. He was having a little bit of a headache from all the minds that were being read at the same time. Thankfully, most the people were too busy dancing to really think.
He walked over to the bar and ordered cola, not wanting to get drunk just yet. He wanted to meet some people here. He wanted answers.

The mood in the room was getting a bit dull tonight. No one interesting had decided to come, and even after a few martinis, the place was still boring as hell. Hysteria wondered if she should liven the place up with her power. If she concentrated, she get pretty good party going on in the club. She wondered if it was even worth the effort. There wasn't really anyone she wanted to dance with. Lately there were a lot of teenagers coming in due to the fact that the students from Xavier's School liked to hang out here. It was getting a bit annoying.
If she didn't have a chance to party, she could at least recruit for the Brotherhood. Teenage mutants were easy to pressure. They were pretty gullible. Spotting a boy sitting alone at a boy, she found a sufficient target.
"Hey there," she said.

Matt was sipping on his soda as he rubbed his head in pain, the thoughts of everyone around him overloading him a little bit. He then turned around to see an attractive woman walk upto him. When she said hi, he replied back,
"Hi. Nice to meet you." Matt said, offering his hand. He'd normally be concerned about absorbing unstable powers, but right now he was focused on relieving his headache.
"I'm Matt." He said.

"I'm Hysteria," she said, shaking his hand. Fortunately, she happened to be wearing spiked leather gloves, so there would no exchange of powers that night. "Nice to meet you too. You know, I haven't seen you around here before. Are you new?" Her green eyes locked into his with curiosity.

"Nice to meet you Hysteria." Matt said, rubbing his head as he looked in Hysteria's eyes back.
"Yeah, kind of. I teleported here about a week ago, the last week I've been staying around NYC. I'm heading over to the school that I hear houses mutants." Matt said, not knowing of Hysteria's intentions as he couldn't focus his telepathy just yet, still picking up everyone else's thoughts.
"I kind of need help in learning about my power. I absorb other people's abilities." Matt said, knowing that since this place was full of mutants, he'd be fine saying it. Plus the more people knew, the better. He didn't want anyone giving him dangerous powers.
"You wouldn't happen to have any aspirin, would you? This telepathy is killing me." Matt said, rubbing his head still.

"No, sorry. I don't have any aspirin." It seemed the X-men worked fast. No matter. It would be a challenge to change the kid's mind. And hopefully, he wouldn't be reading her mind while she was doing it. Well, he did say he had a headache, so perhaps she didn't have to worry about the telepathy ... for now. "You know, I'm part of a different organization for mutants, one that is a little bit more relaxed on the rules. I think you'd enjoy it a lot."

Matt looked at her curiously when she said that she was with another group.
"Oh really? From the school?" Matt asked as his headache worsened, rubbing his head. He needed some painkillers, and fast.
"What do you mean by relaxed on the rules?" Matt asked, looking around to see if anyone was paying attention.
"Whats the name of this, organisation?" Matt asked, hoping that she would say it was part of the school.
He didn't have his brothers here this time to help him in making the right decision. They'd always been there for him and helped him stay clear of trouble. From what he could tell, Hysteria looked nice enough, but so did his drug dealer back in the day. Little did he know about her intentions and what she had planned for him.

"No, it's not an organization from the school. It's an independent group. We're not about about academics, just a way for mutants to help other mutants. We're called the Brotherhood." She smiled at him. She hoped to make him as comfortable as possible, to let his guard down. She decided not to use her mood influencing powers because they might somehow cure his headache, which was probably the only thing standing in the way of him reading mind and finding out her true intentions. "We're not about sitting in classrooms and studying. We feel that you can learn so much more about life by experiencing it."

"Well It's a good thing I graduated last year. Besides, that name sounds a little gay." Matt said, taking a sip of his soda as he began to pick up a thought. A thought about him. About how useful he would be. He got up and looked around, wondering who it would be.
"I'm sorry, but I got to go. Matt said, as he got up and finished his soda. He had to get out of there. Fast.

Oh well, suit yourself, she thought. If he wanted to be an X-man that was his choice. And if she wanted to use his powers to make him feel like his heart had been ripped out of his chest just because she was bored, that was her choice.
Concentrating on him and another random X-man in the room, she used her power to incite the feeling of extreme heartbreak. It was the kind of despair that one only feels when one has lost all hope, gutwrenching and twisted. With a sadistic smile on her face, she quietly sipped her drink.

Matt suddenly felt like as though his heart had been ripped in two. He stumbled as he turned around to Hysteria, a sadistic look on her face evident.
"You... It was you!" Matt said, feeling the pain of the induced heartache, as he began to cry a little, the pain unbearable.
"Please... Stop!" Matt begged as he felt more pain and he looked up to her and inadvertly sent a telepathic message to her, begging her to stop.

"Oooh, I'm shaking in my little black boots." She laughed. This kid didn't have a clue. "Listen, you might have been hot shit back in wherever the hell you came from, but now you're in Brotherhood terrority, and we don't take kindly to idiot X-men kids thinking they say or do whatever they want. You're lucky you caught me in a good mood today because now I'm letting you go. But if I ever catch you disrespecting the Brotherhood name again, you're going to wish you were never born, got it?" She released her power over him.

When she released him from her power, he looked up at her and a look of disgust was on his face.
"You're like me. Why would you want to hurt people like you?" Matt said, panting from the pain he was getting over.
"I don't even know about these X-men! I just got here from Australia!" Matt said, wondering who the hell they were and what they had to do with Hysteria.
"I just want answers for my powers!" He said.

There was a low, dangerous voice from behind the pink haired female. "Hey goth wannabe bitch. Why don't you run off and play with your little brotherhood friends..Else you could go back to standing at the street corner.." A low snicker. "This kid is under Raptor protection..And you know what they say: Don't fuck with the raptor." Aryn had gained herself a bit of a name on the streets..Most were wary, especially since the last person that pissed her off at the nightclub got gutted. Admittedly, he could heal himself, but that's why she gutted him a few times to get the point across.

"Aryn? Hey, how are you?" Matt said as he looked to Hysteria.
"Can you tell me what the hell is going on here? Why is this chick in my face?" Matt asked. He wanted to know more about these people. And how much of a threat they were.
"You're lucky I'm not going to absorb your power. Since I can't control abilities first off, you'd be screwed!" Matt said, feeling more confident with a friend around. Although inside he was scared shitless.
