Four ways to go

She stood outside the mansion, snow falling all around her. Normally she drifted through life unnoticed, knowing that no one cared. She didn't know how long she could cope with being ignored; it was starting to wear thin.

She went to press the buzzer but she hesitated. Would it be any different here? Sure she was a mutant but so was everyone else in the mansion in front of her. Her hand returned to her side as she turned and walked back into the blizzard unaware of the pair of eyes watching her.

Remy wandered the grounds trying to get away from the students. He had been asked to cover Jean's class while she and Scott were away on a mission. He stopped and casually looked down at the path. It was covered in snow because of the blizzard and a pair of footprints was leading up to the mansion. He glanced at the mansion doors and saw them suspiciously close. Remy brushed away as much of the snow as he could and he found a thin layer of ice covering the gravel. He smirked as he avoided the ice and found himself on the driveway.

Something caught the corner of his eye so he span around to face it. A girl with shoulder length auburn hair with two white streaks stood at the gate. She had dull green eyes that looked like they had once been full of life. The clothes she wore were as tattered as her overcoat and looked as though they had been salvaged from a bin. Her gloved hand was reaching towards the buzzer but it stopped. Remy thought that she had seen him. In stead of her calling to him she turned and walked back in to the snow.
