Robert filled his tray, and made for the tables outside, Drake, Christina, Lauren, Sasha, John, Arianna were already there. They were all just talking. Drake had stuff on his plate, most of it low fat and low sugar, he was becoming very thin. John and Arianna where together.

Christina sat next to Drake, eating a barbequed honey-soy chicken leg slowly. She looked over at Drake, knowing he was missing all the good stuff, and a twinge of guilt passed through her, as it always did when she looked at him eating.
He had grown so thin, if he could get thinner than he was before.
Sasha sat on the other side of Christina, and was eating too, but more slowly than her best friend.
Finally she put down her fork and stared at the still full plate blankly. She looked up at Christina and spoke in a soft, shaking voice.
"I'm going for a swim,"
Christina nodded, and watched Sasha get up and head towards the pool. There was no use going after her; Sasha needed her space. Besides, they already had pulled an all-nighter in Sasha's bedroom the night after Sasha got the call from her parents saying her grandmother was dying.

"Whats up with her?" Drake asked, quizzically.
John and Arianna where eating their food slowly, Arianna had very little on her plate. John had far to many pieces of chicken to be considered normal, but everyone shrugged it off.

"I'll tell you later," Christina replied quietly. She finished her chicken leg and started on some salad.

"Ok." Drake said.
Robert was eating his lunch, as was all the rest of the people.
Johns phone rang, He took it out and saw it was his mother calling. He spoke Swedish for a while. After hanging up Arianna asked him,
"John, what was that about."
John simply replied, "I need to get to Sweden, quickly. I'm going home."
He stood up and walked away. Arianna caught up to him and asked him again.
"You want to know whats wrong? My dad is dead, He died yesterday, a tree fell on him." John said softly.
"Oh man." Arianna said. She hugged him tightly, kissed him, and said, "Can I come with you?

Christina glanced up at John and Arianna. She couldn't hear what was said but she could read their body language well enough.
"Something's wrong," she said vaguely. "This isn't a good time for mutants."

"Are you sure you want to, My mother doesn't speak any English." John asked.
"Yes I want to."
"I don't think you should. My family has a family only policy at the funerals." John said, "I would much rather want you to stay here."
"Ok, Ill do that for you then,"
"Thank you".
"I may be gone for a fair while, and they don't have any communications out in the woods. Don't expect to hear from me."
"Okay, I'll wait for you." Arianna said. John hugged her tightly, and kissed her deeply.
"I love you." He said, before running off.

Marissa came out and took a seat at the table, her food tray was barely full of food all she had on it was some salad and a piece of fruit. Tye and Jake were walking over to the table together, they had a full tray, it was covered in fruit and chicken wings. They were talking about going on a mission to help get the rest of the pieces of the amulet for Tye. Jake they stood up at the table and said " does anyone want to come back in time with me and help collect the rest of the pieces of the amulet for Tye". Tye looked at Jake and said "do you think that it is a good idea that all these people come, i dont know any of them". Taylor was already sitting at the table next to Robert, she had finished eating. Ryan was wondering around the school before he came and got something to eat, he walked out side and looked around for somewhere to sit and eat, he soon spotted Lauren and walked over towards her where he took a seat next to her.

Christina smiled at Jake as he sat down.
"Sorry, I can't," she said, glancing briefly at Drake. "I have... other things to take care of."

Drake looked up, "Nah, I wont go. Too dangerous. Besides, you know not to talk about that stuff here."

Christina nodded in agreement.
"Could we please have a normal lunch for once? With no talk about missions? Besides, changing history could be really bad."

Arianna, with a tear in her eye, turned back and sat down at the table. She poked at her food but didn't eat it.

Tye said to everyone " I would prefere if none of you went anyway, it could be way to dangerous for you all, but it is nice to meet you all". Jake looked at Tye and said "fine, if you want it to only be us two that go, we mose well not go because we wont be comin back here if it is as bad as what you say it is". Tye then said to Jake "I really dont want to talk about it now, not with all these people around, they wont beleive what I tell you anyway". Jake looked at Tye and said "ok, but we have to do some training before we go, i dont want to lose my life". Tye and Jake then sat down and started to eat there food.

Christina looked over at Arianna and placed her free hand on her shoulder.
"Are you okay?" she asked, concerned. "What was that about?"

Arianna felt the hand on her shoulder and started crying even more.
"Johns going to Sweden, his father was killed yesterday and Johns going to the funeral." She said.
Drake, Lauren, and Bob all looked at Arianna. Drake stood up, walked over to Arianna, and put his bony hand on her shoulder. "I wasn't old enough to remember when my parents died. However, my parents left me with a mark, and I shall never forget them. John will probably be ok."
