Victoria walked quietly across the Watcher's Chamber. Giving him a wink and a "Howyoodoin?" as she walked past him. She knew he wouldn't respond, he never did.
After a week at home, Victoria had managed to get back in touch with Peter, visit her adoptive parents and conduct a silent raid on her father's house. The results of that raid lay on her living room table at home. She had absorbed Sinister's Diary as soon as she had a chance. There were things she needed to know, and things she was delighted to find out.
Like his fear of the Phoenix. Somewhere, deep inside, it made her walk a little taller. Knowing Sinister was afraid of her in some way.
But the chapters she had read on Maddie... She never knew. It had taken her a few days to actually come to grips with it all. According to Sinister, Madelyne had died because of N'astirh, whoever that was. She had a hard time with the fact that Madelyne and Scott Summers had been an item. That maybe her own feelings for the Scott she had known were nothing more than synaptic programming of Sinister's.
Looking across the chamber where the other members of the team stood, she couldn't help but frown a little when she noticed Hank wasn't there. But, they knew this would happen. They knew it wouldn't always be the same team on the same assignments.
Garbed in solid black from head to toe, it was only the hint of the crimson red stripe that ran down the length of her pants and lost itself in her boots. Her top was nothing more than a black corset that laced up the front with vibrant red lacings. And once again, a hooded cloak rested across her shoulders. Although, Victoria still marveled at the fact that Deadpool had crossed time and space to return her sword to her. One of the many items she had left behind. After a quick kiss and a grope of her bottom, he had disappeared yet again. Her fingers found the hilt of the sword and she couldn't help but smile.
Pulling herself from her thoughts, she let her dark eyed gaze go over the newcomers, taking stock of them only momentarily before she walked over to where Paige was standing.
"So, here we are again." was all she said as she looked back up at the Watcher again briefly, then back to Paige.
