[Story Thread]: Mutant Menace, Act II: Ask Not
Zoey paced.
This was one of her habits. She couldn't stand still. Sitting was fine... when she had something to do. Here, she didn't. This place looked to be a converted bank vault, or at least based on a bank vault. It was a tidy solution to temporary superpower containment, but for one little problem; bank vaults were not exactly known for their ventilation. It was getting warm in here, and if there was one thi- er, two thing- three, definitely three things- that she couldn't stand it was heat, small spaces, and waiting.
Zoey also worried. About what would happen to them, yes, but also about Kate and Serena. She figured they could take care of themselves, probably better than the rest of them. She worried nonetheless.
After what seemed like an eternity but which only was forty-five minutes, Zoey decided she had enough. She could tell her pacing was making the others anxious. So she did what any rational person would do; she picked out the least uncomfortable spot in their cell, laid down, declared "Wake me when shit starts happening," and took a nap using her signature red hoodie rolled up into a pillow. This revealed, in case there was any doubt, that she definitely was wearing the X-Men not-spandex suit underneath her civilian clothes.
