The sky was pitch black, the streets were illuminated by the street lights. The sky was illuminated by a half moon, with the stars seemingly scattered endlessly. High above the clouds Archangel was flying calmly, deciding he needed some relaxation he decided to go for a drink. Archangel dived swiftly downwards towards the city.
Archangel landed swiftly, his wings folded away behind him like a metal backpack. He smirked as he pushed the door open and walked inside, Being a rich businessman he was well known with the barmen. Who never charged him for drinks. "I'll have a lager" Archangel stated, as he approached the bar.

Gambit sat in the corner sipping at a bottle of beer when he heard the door open. Looking up he recognized Archangel."Well isn't this a surprise, I wasn't expecting to see you hear tonight, hows it going? I hope the live of a wealthy mutant is suiting yea." Sliding his empty bear bottle to the barmen he signaled for another one and lit a cigarette. "So what have you bean up to lately?"
Gambit grabbed his deck of cards and began to foul around with them. "Want to play a game, I promise to beat you fair and square if you do."
(Sorry it's a bit short no muse.)

She moved threw the streets she had snuck out of the school her fake id on her as she felt she needed a drink , she knew the school wouldn't have any. Moving to a local bar she pushed open the door and walked over to the bar sitting on a stool the bar man gave her a curtiose look but said nothing , she took it he had served underage people before besides she was so pissed all she wated was a drink, to take away the memory of her nightmare.
"whisky!" She said he pored a glass and left the bottle, she held it and slowly downed it, the taste hit her but she felt it slowly subside even the alcahol didn't affect her as she wanted inside she cursed her healing factor.

Archangel smirked as the barman returned with his drinks. Thankfully, the bar seemed pretty quiet. Archangel smiled as he heard the familiar voice of his drinking rival Gambit. Archangel however was more surprised when he heard another voice he recognised. Unable to think where he had a quick look over his shoulder to see Lynx a student at the X-men mansion. Archangel then decided to intervene "I'll get the whiskey for the girl there and a lager for Gambit" he stated to the barmen.
Shortly, after the barman returned with two lagers and a whisky. Archangel then took them all over to Gambit's table, "Okay sure Gambit but no powers got it?" he stated with a quick chuckle. He doubted that it would work but it beat drinking alone.

Rebbecca was about to complain as she watched the bird boy walk away with her whiskey, she stood up and followed him to a table tapping his shoulder as she drew close to him.
"Hey, bird boy thats mine. " she said her voice low but not angry just annoyed that he had taken her drink from her she looked at the second man who sat with him but just growled at him. She turned her attention back to the boy with the wings almost grabbing for the bottle he had.
She saw at the table and an empty chair and smirked as she moved and sat down.
"ok bird boy you want me here you got me " she said and sat down leaning back to look at him with her brown eyes as she took another drink.

Gambit smiled mischievously, "sure you bet no powers." He went to deal the cards but stopped when he saw Angel go towards a girl that had walked in after him. He gave her a good once over. She was just a kid not even old enough to legally drink yet. He liked her she had spunk. "Welcome to the table kid me and my friend here where about to play a round of poker. You in?"
With out waiting for an answer he quickly dealt two cards to each person face down and put three cards facing up in the middle. He would add two more eventually. "Ok minimum bet is a dollar because of the kid. maximum bet is what ever you feel like betting," he laughed and picked up his card.

Archangel noted Gambit's mischievous smile, "sure you bet no powers." Gambit said. Archangel tried to sense any sarcasm for he knew that Gambit was a pro cheat at cards.
Archangel then looked towards the girl with pure rage as she called him "Bird boy once more" anger flared within him, Archangel then looked around the bar trying to decided if sending metal feathers around was a good idea or not. Archangel sighed as he decided against it, though he did like the girl's ego. It took alot to rival his after all.
Archangel took a sip of his lager and returned his attention to Gambit as he began to deal out the cards. Archangel then said "Call" he dropped five dollars into the pot. "your turn" he stated. As, he took another sip of his lager and looked around the bar. He chuckled quietly imagining what would happen if he was caught playing poker with the xmen.

Rebbecca shook her head when the strange Cajun asked if she wanted to play poker. She like drink but not gambling.
"No thanks I'll just watch you beat the pants of bird boy." She said smirking and looking at the blond boy her eyes looked him over he was three years older than her but even still couldn't stop her looking , she knew he wasn't anything to do with the X-men and again the though of that seem to please her, like a cat in a chase.
She poured another drink and downed it in one looking now to the Cajun she watched him closer as she had never met him before. Her senses told her he was bad and not to be trusted but for now she liked his company , it was rare she actually found people she wanted to be with.

"Are you sure chere, well your loss. "So what have you bean up to Archangel? Have you decided to rejoin de X-Men yet. You know you where never meant for de life of a villain."

Archangel shrugged, "well ive broke free of Apocalypse genetic coding. So I could come back. However, I still owe Apocalypse, alot. Without his genetics influence I wouldn't be able to use my mutant power. But that doesn't matter the X-men wouldnt take me back after my crimes." He smiled and looked around the bar wondering if anyone else had heard looking for an excuse to send feathers around the room.
Archangel sighed as she called him 'bird boy' once more, anyone else would of been killed by now. However, he really didn't feel the need to fight her. "Sorry Gambit, not in the gambling mood --" he placed the cards away from him and looked back towards the bar.
(Sorry can't rp poker)

Rebbecca looked at Bird boy as he placed down his cards , reaching over she picked them up and with a sigh placed two face down on the table.
"Hit me" she said grinning and watching the Cajun as she placed the cards that were now hers on the table face down. She had to have some fun , and it seemed to her she could give it a shot, what did she have to lose, she had nothing but a couple of hundred bucks tucked deep in her pocket.
"So whats the stakes, Cajun?" she asked and sat back a small grin on her face as she waited. Pouring another she felt its affects dissipate quickly and cursed she wanted it to stay , she longed to be dead drunk but so far nothing came close to touching her because of her metabolism and healing factor.

Gambit seat his cards down as well. "Well what is the point in playing if my favorite poker partner doesn't feel like playing. Maybe another time kid besides this is Texas Holdem Poker, not regular poker chere." He tossed the money back at Archangel and took his ten and put it back in his pocket.
"Well if your sure you need to stay with him for a while still. Just remember you have friends at the institute and a place to come if you ever want to come back. Now matter what you have done you can always make up for it."

lynx looked at the man called gambit "I have done nothing yet" she said coldly "I wanted to enjoy a nice drink and some friendly talk " she said downing the last of her drink. she sat back throwing the cards on the table "and by the way you didn't specify which version you were playing" she said her arms now folded across her chest as she flashed yellow eyes at him.
She got the feeling this moment was over, but she still wanted to enjoy her drink. She stood up and grasped her bottle "guess I'll see you around bird boy, if you want me I'm at the bar" she walked to the bar and sat down slowly poring another drink.
