Keeping Traditions
There were traditions around the holidays and then there were traditions. One such tradition on New Year's Day was a snowball fight at Xavier's Institute For Higher Learning. Each New Year's Day the students and faculty gathered on the front lawn and participated in a snowball fight. Snow was never a problem with the resident weather goddess and in later years hydrokinetics.

A fresh blanket of snow covered the ground thanks to Mother Nature.

High noon struck and the snowball fight was officially under way.

	Molly took the moment of protection to make a snowball of her own, its size being slightly larger than an average-sized snowballs. To put it shortly, you'd notice if you got hit by it (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Cait created another dozen and sent them toward the guys, up over the Twerp Major's wall. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Chris wasn't exactly the most dextrous when fully transformed, and made quite a target, but it's not like anyone got eliminated anyway. And that's why a gigantic paw scoops up an equally large mass of snow and flings it across the grounds, rather than throwing anything one at a time. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Misha gave a yell, grabbed up another snowball, and ran for the wall! "This is XAVIER'S!" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"No more action movies for you," Lyta said with a smirk, as she pelted snowballs at him from the air. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	A rather grubby -- really, did anyone expect otherwise -- snowball flies, however singularly, in Cait's general direction. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Cait called up some snow under her and lifted up so she could see over the two walls. She smiled and didn't even bother with snowballs this time. A wave of snow built up on the guys side, behind the wall, and started rushing toward the boys. She caught Corey's dirt and snowball in the air with her powers and sent it toward Misha.

	Having constructed a couple of snowballs roughly the size of an adult housecat, Molly began throwing them towards the boys. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Protecting herself against the initial barrage of snowballs with a telekinetic field, Rachel lobbed a volley of her own toward the boys. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Misha was, quite cheerfully, pelted with snowballs. They slowed, but couldn't stop him. THIS WAS WAR! After a face full of dirt and snow, he turned his head to glare at Corey, the dirtmaster. "Keep the snow clean!" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	sandcastlegod 2009-12-30 08:07 pm UTC (link)
	"Sorry!" Corey diverted some of the snow wave shifting the ground, but he was still feeling....wet. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Gabriel flew up above the assaulting grounds with a few snowballs in hand. One was thrown at Lyta, and the other two made their way to the Queen of Snow, Cait. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Cait stopped the two coming at her and sent them back toward their source. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Chris shifted down to her catgirl form, scooping up an armful then making a strafing run. Misha and Gabe got most of hers. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	lytaworthington 2009-12-31 02:14 am UTC (link)
	"Ooof." The snowball made contact with Lyta's arm, just enough for her to change her flight path. Flying down to quickly make another set of snowballs, before launching up into the air again. She threw a couple at Gabriel, and then lobbed some Corey and Misha. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	sandcastlegod 2009-12-31 03:04 am UTC (link)
	Corey dodged a few missiles before raising himself to higher ground and firing back -- careful to make clean snowballs this time. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	mishaloganovich 2009-12-31 03:20 am UTC (link)
	Misha threw one at Lyta, taking care not to aim for her wings, tossed more at Molly, Rachel and Chris, and made another mad run at the girls' fort. The one in his hand he saved for Cait. Loganovich Express Mail! (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	_tsunami_ 2009-12-31 03:46 am UTC (link)
	Cait watched Misha run at her and tilted her head. This was amusing. Very. She flicked her wrist and two hands formed out of the snow and grabbed him. "Nice try Mr. Romanov!" she yelled and then pelted him with a good sized snowball. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

Agile and perceptive, Gabriel landed on the ground before taking cover behind his wings. Snow pressed against the pearly white feathers, but he himself remained untouched.

And when he parted his wings (forcefully, to throw off the snow), he had a snowball coming at Chris and another coming at Lyta. And then there was one he held on to as he lifted himself back into the air.

	"Oooph!" Rachel made a noise of surprise as one of Misha's snowballs whacked her upside the head. "I am gonna get you for that, Misha!" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	mishaloganovich 2009-12-31 07:02 pm UTC (link)
	"Promise?!" he yelled back as he worked his way out of the snow hands holding him. "Hey guys, come on!" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	_tsunami_ 2009-12-31 10:15 pm UTC (link)
	Cait let the snow hands collapse and while she was concentrating on Misha, a snowball pelted her. She looked around to see who threw it, but was unsuccessful. Ten snowballs formed and went flying toward the boys. (Reply to this)(Parent)
