Logan had been scouting the perimeter of the crowd, which was dispersing as the rain got worse, and the protesters were steadily clearing. The rain was falling hard and he was soaked through, but he couldn't care less. He walked over to Odin, noticing him on the phone and waited impatiently for him to be done, scanning the crowds as he saw the fighting calm and people scatter. "Husk!" he yelled across the crowd as she chased after the fleeing Brotherhood. "It's over!" There was no need to fight when the Brotherhood had received their warning and the danger had been eliminated.

Astral gasped in shock as Husk tried to hit John again, stumbling on ahead in the mud. John was fine though, and his hand returned to her own. She clasped onto him even tighter as she ran off with the rest of the Brotherhood, a limp in a gait. She wasn't bothered about sides right now, she just wanted someone to take care of her.

"See you at seven," ::Odin told Morph, assuming he'd pass the information on to Golem. He ended the call, shut off his phone, and dropped it into his pocket. The Wolverine was in front of him, and he took of his glasses to wipe them down.:: "Was anyone hurt?"

Eclipse picked himself up off the ground, defeated and livid all at once. He had hoped that after today Astral would see just how bad the Brotherhood was, but she was with them yet again.

"Not sure," he muttered, eyes focusing on Eclipse who was only just getting out of mud. "C'mon," he said to Odin, sprinting across the grass to reach the man.

::Odin sprinted after the Wolverine, ignored the pain in his side from running far too much; it had been years since he'd needed to use his flight response the way he once had. Glasses wiped down, he replaced them on his nose, and glanced around. The crowds had continued to disperse, the flames gone, and the day had been a complete disaster.::

He saw two of the men from Xavier's coming towards him and sighed heavily. He wanted to be the one doing the saving. Instead he had done the complete opposite and Astral was once again with them.

"Y'ok?" Logan asked as Eclipse got to his feet, looking him over. He didn't seem too badly harmed, but he seemed a bit singed in places.

::A glance around told Odin that Astral had left with the Brotherhood members, which undoubtedly had affected the man, Eclipse. He continued to glance around, to try and find Paige and Typhoid, both familiar faces, one a friend.::

"Yeah," he replied shortly, definitely not feeling ok in anyway shape or form. "They all got away?"

"So it appears," ::Odin said to the other man. Unless Paige were to arrive with someone in hand.::

Breathing heavily, Paige had come to a stop after Logan told her it was over. She felt like falling to the floor she was so out of breath, but she didn't. Feeling defeated she watched as the Brotherhood left, very angry right now she stood there ignoring the people around her at the moment.

"The crowds are clearing," Logan noted as he looked around, thankful for this, but at the same time wondering what the papers would make of this tomorrow.

"Probably forced to after the Brotherhood started," he muttered, looking around for the rest of the small group that had gathered earlier on in the protest.

::Odin nodded, having noticed the same. It would mean no more headlines for today, but also that their carefully organized appeal has been utterly ruined. It was several strikes against his lingering respect for the Brotherhood.:: "I can't speak for the organizers, but I want to thank you all for what you did."
