::Hayley sits against the trunk of a tree at the edge of the forest, looking out over the grounds of what used to be the mansion, now a burned up pile of smouldered wreckage. She sighs as she thinks about the pain and death caused for such a pointless and unworthy case. The government had no business killing innocent people just because a few mutants elsewhere are out of hand. She turns her head as she hears something emerge from the trees to her right, and she looks over to see a shadowed figure she can't quite make out in the trees. She doesn't move, and waits to see if the figure becomes recognizable.::

Draven pushes the wheels a bit closer to the wreckage. He makes it to be where his room was. Nothing is left. All of the equipment, his clothes, and most important to him all of the things he had gotten from his cousin, the tapes and photos of him and his family before tragedy struck. He puts his face in his hands, sobbing. Not only has his future been lost, but now his past as well.

::Hayley watches the figure emerge and move closer toward the mansion. She finally realizes who it is, and watches Draven go towards the wreckage. She notices him crying, and decides not to get up. She decides to let him have a moment alone. They all needed one after what had happened. Hayley leans back against the tree, and looks up at the night sky.::

Draven wipes away his tears. He keeps his head down in his hands which are propped up on his legs. He turns his wheel chair in the opposite direction of Hayley, and pushes the wheels along untill a small log catches the wheel, causing Draven to go forward and fall on his face, his wheel chair getting kicked out from under him.

::Hayley hears a dull thud and looks back in the direction of Draven. She sees him on the ground, and sits up, waiting to see if he's all right and if he needs any help. She doesn't want to go until she's sure he needs it, so not to make him feel helpless or anything.::

Draven pushes pushes up his uppper body and looks at his wheel chair, which is on it's side about seven feet to his right. He looks at his crossed legs with a look of shame on his face. He hits his fist hard against the ground as he tries to crawl his way to his wheel chair, which isn't looking like an easy task.

::Hayley watches him struggle, and winces. She pushes herself off the ground and starts to walk slowly toward Draven, finally reachind the wheelchair and setting it back upright. She rolls it closer to him and silently offers to help him up.::

Draven looks up at her adn then looks down, gritting his teeth. He takes her offer, and she helps him back into his wheel chair.

::Hayley helps him back into the wheelchair, then stands there. She looks at him, a bit awkwardly, then starts to turn.:: Ah guess Ah'll leave...Let you, get back to what you were doing...

"Always leaving me, huh." He says sorely, putting the breaks on his wheelchair and looking at the rubble.

::Hayley turns back to him, looking a little hurt.:: Ah just though you might need a minute alone...Ah didn't mean...::She looks down at the burnt wreckage a few feet away, unable to finish::

"I'm sorry...It's just. I'm sorry." He says, meaning his apology. "None of this is fair."

You're right. It's not. ::She shakes her head.:: Funny how it happens though. All these mutants in the woods, all the ones that were here...A lot of them had no where else to go. They thought they were safe here, and then this happens. ::She shakes her head, overwhelmed by the terrible reality of it all.::

Draven sits back in his chair, slumping down a little bit. "Once everything is settled I don't think I'm going to stick around. Too many bad memories." He says, slightly changing the subject. Once again when things get tough, he plans to run.

::Hayley frowns a moment before replying.:: Yeah, Ah guess Ah understand. After all, Ah was gone when it happened. The news brought me back. ::She pauses a moment.:: What about Emiko?
