As usual detention had lasted way too long. At least an extra fifteen minutes. And all because he’d been caught smoking in the teachers parking lot. It was total bullshit, but without Mystique as their principle anymore he couldn’t get out of it like he’d first been able to. But their was a slight benefit - no one was around, which meant trying to break into some of the school lockers was a lot easier.
With a gloved hand on one of the cheap locks he smirked a little to himself. This was too easy. Not that he’d steal things - he wasn’t that much of a dick (and Pietro could get most things new from the shops). No, it was petty cash and loose change he was after. Stuff that be missing and not noticed as easily.
With a surge of his powers the lock rattle, causing him to grin in triumph as it fell apart in his hands. Perfect. He’d gotten better at it since Mystique had bailed on them, the need for money becoming quite obvious. But as the door to the locket swung open he heard footsteps coming down the hallway. Eyes widening in a panic he moved to shut the locker, the metal smashing loudly against each other as he tried to force it shut.
