The disclaimer telling you that I don't own any X-Men Evolution Characters or GI Joe characters or anyone else has taken off. Yup this is another long fic that will just go any way I feel like it. Here we go again. You think I would have learned my lesson from the last time. Nope. I haven't. So what do you call a crazy fic with X-Men Evolution Characters, Misfits, Joes and absolutely no direction? You call it…
Evolution XMJ
Chapter 1: It Begins Again
To say the week had already been hectic for the X-Men and Misfits was the understatement of the year. But when Doug Ramsey appeared on the Institute doorstep two days after the attack of the Acolytes it started a chain of events that really made things insane.
"Doug! What are you doing here?" Kitty gasped at the sight of her friend all battered and bruised.
"Hey Kitty," Doug made a slight grin. "Is Professor Xavier in? I'd like to join the X-Men."
&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&
"Are you telling me Magneto now may already have the plans for another Bio Pulse?" Xavier asked.
"If not all the plans at the very least some of them," Doug sighed. "I don't know who his spy was. I kind of left before we figured it out." He was in the mission briefing room with Logan, Scott, Remy, Kitty, Jean, Kurt, Bobby, Rogue, Hank and Peter.
"Well between that and Legion's attack on SHEILD if he didn't before he must have them now," Scott said.
"Not only that, the Hellfire Club is planning on using their own updated Bio Pulse within a year," Doug added.
"Are you sure?" Logan asked.
"Positive," Doug told him. "This is all my fault! I helped the Beta team do research on that and tons of other stuff. Who knows what else they're doing with what I found?"
"Don't blame yourself Douglas," Xavier put a hand on his arm. "You didn't know you were being used."
"Yeah but you think a guy like me would have been smart enough to figure it out," Doug sighed. "If Spyke hadn't let me get away…"
"Spyke? You mean the Porcupine…?" Logan started to say. Xavier held his arm to let Doug continue.
"When I ran off the Hellions were sent to either bring me back or…" Doug paused. "To be honest I'm not sure why he let me go, but he kind of helped fake my death in order to throw 'em off the trail."
"We can continue this discussion later. Kitty, why don't you show Douglas upstairs and find him some spare clothes?" Xavier asked. "Then we can phone your family and let them know where you are."
"That could be a problem. My parents don't know I'm a mutant," Doug sighed. "I'm not looking forward to that conversation."
"Well maybe they'll take it well?" Kitty asked.
"I doubt it. They want me to be perfect like Uncle Donald," Doug sighed. "Mister All American Banker."
"Perfect?" Scott spat out his drink. "You don't know that…?"
"Uh, Scott I think you'd better let me tell him," Kitty interrupted.
"Tell me what?" Doug was puzzled.
"You haven't seen your uncle in a while have you?" Kitty led him out. "Doug, I think you'd better prepare yourself for a shock." The door closed behind them.
"Well this confirms what we already know and worse," Logan said. "If the kid's telling the truth both the Hellfire Club and Magneto are planning the same thing."
"He's not lying," Xavier told him. "And Evan really did help him to escape."
"Then maybe Evan's not…" Kurt began.
"Not what? Not a traitor?" Scott snapped at him. "Not responsible for the deaths of a lot of people? AndTabitha was nearly one of them? I don't buy it!"
"Doug's not lying, Scott," Jean said.
"I didn't say Doug was," Scott corrected her. "Look, maybe Evan did have some flash of conscience or something and let him go. But that doesn't excuse what he's done in the past. And from what Cypher's told us he's actually going along with this plan of the Hellfire Club. He's still a bad guy Kurt and one good deed doesn't…"
"MY UNCLE IS GAY?" Doug could be heard screaming. "AND HE'S DATING WHO?"
"Just what we need around here," Logan groaned. "Another student with issues."
"To be fair he has had a rough couple of days," Hank pointed out.
"And we haven't?" Bobby asked. "Maybe he can help us identify who's in the Hellfire Club."
"Of course he can, that's why they want him so bad," Scott said.
"You know sooner or later they're gonna figure out the kid's here," Logan said. "They may try an attack of some kind."
"I'm afraid that is a very real possibility," Xavier frowned.
"But we can't just kick him out or anything," Rogue said.
"We're not, we're just saying the kid knows too much for the Hellfire Club to just up and let us…" Logan began.
A loud explosion could be heard from outside and the alarms sounded. "We're under attack!" Jean said.
"Either that or the Misfits are visiting," Scott grumbled as they raced outside for battle. "I hope it's an attack. Please let it be another attack…"
Instantly Todd tackled him. "We're ba-ack!" Todd said cheerfully. "Miss us?"
"Like I miss my wisdom teeth…" Rogue moaned as the Misfits appeared on their front lawn.
"God why couldn't it have been an attack?" Scott moaned. "Toad get off me!"
"What did you blow up now?" Logan moaned.
Trinity pointed to a smoking pile of metal that was formerly a laser that was part of the mansion's defense system. "Accident…" The girls said innocently.
"You decided to play around with our defense systems again didn't you?" Jean moaned.
"Maybe…" Daria whistled.
"So what's new?" Pietro asked. He caught sight of Doug in the back. "Hey! Wasn't this guy with the Hellions?" He ran up to him.
"Not anymore," Kitty said. "Doug defected."
"Well I always said any X-Geek was a defect," Pietro grinned. He dodged Kitty's swipe. "Still too slow Kitty cat!"
"Ignore him," Wanda said. "We all do."
"Cypher you might as well find out right now what you're in for," Scott said. "Meet the Misfits."
"Charmed I'm sure," Pietro shook Doug's hand. "Even though we've met before might as well introduce ourselves!"
"Like anybody could forget you!" Angelica groaned. "And I don't mean that in a good way!"
"Uh, are those guys part of your team too?" Doug pointed behind him.
"No…" Althea noticed a group of mutants appearing on the Institute front lawn. "Not that I know of…"
"Now who's showing up at our door?" Scott asked.
"If that don't beat all…" Logan shot out his claws when he saw who they were. "I thought we'd seen the last of these jokers!"
"What are they doing here?" Rogue shouted.
"Uh hi guys," Morph gulped as the Exiles walked up to them. "We really need to talk."
"What? You here to trash our mansion and start another riot again?" Scott snapped.
"You want me to tie you up with your car again?" Magnus asked.
"Enough!" A seventh figure moved through them. "Charles I know this sounds odd but we really need your help."
"Magneto…" Xavier frowned.
Now things are gonna get a little bit weird…
