Chapter Two: Black as Night

[Solace]

Paige hadn’t said a single word since her earlier berating of herself and her actions, the southerner was still very much pissed off about the situation and about having been lied to by The Timebroker so in all aspects the group might not be hearing much out of her until she cooled down. Still standing in the same spot she’d just minutes before been laying in a heap in Paige watched and listened as first Barry and then Rogue left the room, overhearing Rogue’s little speech the metamorph felt a strong desire to knock miss ‘rookie’ upside her head although most of those feelings came from the mere fact that here she was boasting about how they needed to act like a team when in fact it was Rogue herself who almost turned Paige into a pile of burnt wood by flaming right as she and Tessa had made to leave the room.

Slowly moving across the room and towards the doorway Paige enjoyed the soft ‘thumping’ noise her boots made as the connected with the floor, her slow even pace creating a comforting rhythm of noise. As she reached the doorway leading into the hall Paige peaked her head around to see Rogue’s form standing near to Tessa as she gave her pretty little speech about teamwork. Without one single word spoken Paige strides out through the doorway and into the hall, reaching Rogue in record time and as she did so Paige formed her right hand into a fist which was soon raised and poised to connect with Rogue’s face, not event thinking about the consequences of her actions Paige let her right hand connect squarely with Rogue’s face. “Teamwork huh? Didn’t look much like teamwork when yuh went and endangered my life by flaming back there….” Paige snarled finally finding her voice; her blue eyes were blazing with anger as she locked gazes with Rogue’s green eyes.
