She was a very unique mutant. And it was actually because of unique circumstances that she met Wade Wilson. He had needed some technological upgrades and a patron at Sister Margret's had mentioned his little niece being really good with technology. So, he paid a visit with Betty, Buck's niece. One thing Buck had forgotten to mention was that Betty was a hot little number. Five feet, seven inches of red and blue haired, plus-sized, curvy sexiness that was a badass as well as having a fine ass. But, unlike most people who see Wade for the first time, she didn't say anything cruel or rude. She welcomed him in after he stated he was a friend of her uncle's. She fixed every technological problem he threw her way, even offering some of her own weaponry as a sign of good faith on her part.
Wade had to admit that he liked her, even joked around and offered her to be in a threesome with him and his totally hot wife, Vanessa. But what threw him for a loop was the day she showed him her mutations. She was what could only be described as a "technopath." She explained that it was the reason she was so good with technology. She was able to understand what made machines tick. It was like she could see and understand an unknown language. And the best thing she could do with this gift was literally surf the internet. While she was able to sit comfortably in her chair, all her hand had to do was touch her hard drive and her brain was off in the world wide web. It was how she made her living, hacking terrorist groups as a cyber bounty hunter.
Another mutation was her ability to manipulate electricity. It was why she wore huge rubber bands on her arms: she was a walking conductor. Her emotions were a big factor in how powerful her electricity could be, When she was afraid, she could barely form sparks. When she was beyond pissed off, she could short out an entire metropolis. When she was calm and in control, she could do anything she put her mind to. And anytime she used this mutation, a blue pattern started glowing across her skin, making her look like a circuit board.
She could also manipulate the electrons in someone's body. One of her favorite parts about that ability was using the electrons to access memories in someone's mind. Make someone emotionally manipulated and easily crumbled.
Even after all that crazy shit she went through from knowing Wade, she still cared about the dumbass. She was worried everyday he didn't call her after Vanessa's murder. But a weeks months later, Betty received a call from an unknown number. "Hello?"
"Betty, it's Wade." The mercenary said.
"Wade? Where have you been? First, you totally disappear after Vanessa died, then you have Chrome Ivan Drago watch over me and not give me any clue as to where you are, now you call me out of the blue? I want answers, Wilson!"
"I'll give them to you when I get to your house." Wade answered.
"Which will be when exactly?"
"Right now." The line then went dead and a knock was made on her front door.
Betty threw her phone on the couch and picked up her Plasma Blaster she hid under the coats on the coat rack. She charged it up using the electrons in her body and slowly unlocked the door. Once the locks were taken care of, she quickly twisted the knob and swung the door open, aiming her gun at whoever was on the other side. Thankfully, she let out a breath she had been holding when saw it was Wade. "Hey, Betty." He said.
She suddenly tensed and raised her blaster again when she saw someone behind him. The guy looked like he had seen Hell. She saw he had a large gun on his back and several other weapons on his belt, along with an ash-covered teddy bear. But the biggest shock to her was seeing his metal arm and glowing eye.
Wade used his middle finger to push the barrel of her gun down to the floor. "He's with me." He said casually.
"I don't care who he's with. I wanna know who the fuck he is." She said.
"Name's Cable, ma'am." He answered grimly but kept eye contact.
Betty smiled and put her blaster back under her coat rack. "Why can't you be more like him, Wade?" She complained.
Deadpool did a few double takes between her and Cable before replying. "Just what exactly are you insinuating?"
"You need manners like him. Unlike you, he introduced himself and waited to be welcomed in instead of barging into my house and demanding upgrades just because he knew my uncle. Now, going into a completely unrelated topic, did you become someone's prison bitch?" This caused Wade to give her a curious look, one which made her laugh. "Silver Sputnik may have left out details as to where you were, but it doesn't take a rocket scientist, let alone a mutant like me, to figure out you were arrested. Besides, I saw it on the news."
"She's a mutant?" Cable asked Wade.
"What?" Wade turned to him. "Is it already bad enough that you killed Black Tom and hate Indian music? Now you gotta hate my best mutant buddy?" He then shook his head. "This is beyond racial intolerance, you purebred Aryan ass prick."
"Shut up!" Both Cable and Betty yelled together.
"The fuck you need from me, Wade?" Betty asked.
"I need...The Big One." He answered.
Betty cocked an eyebrow and said in a scarily calm voice, "The Big One? The very same Big One that I said could never, and I mean NEVER, be used for anything unless it could change everything for an outcome we absolutely want? That Big One?"
"Yes." Wade nodded.
The younger mutant then punched Wade so hard that he fell backwards. "ARE YOU CRAZY?!" She screamed. She then pointed at Cable and shouted, "Don't answer that!"
Cable didn't know how she knew he was going to answer, but he decided to find out later. Right now, he knew that if they were to win this fight and change the fate of his family, they needed this woman to help them. "Listen, we need whatever you got to prevent a kid from becoming a psychopath. I came from the future and I need to save my family. And If I don't, then my trip here was a waste of my fucking time. I'm willing to give this fucking idiot a chance to talk the kid out of it, but if he doesn't, I kill him and be on my way."
Betty looked back and forth between the two people in front of her before letting out an irritated groan. "Fine." She grumbled. She went into her kitchen with Cable and Deadpool behind her, the later rubbing his sore cheek in the process."
"That right hook is a lot stronger than I remember." He commented.
"Yeah, well," She sighed as she opened her refrigerator. She reached into the back before taking out a Tupperware bowl. "I did tell you that my defensive skills would improve." She opened the bowl and pulled out an object wrapped in paper. She proceeded to unwrap it and reveal what looked like a black Rubik's cube with one of the center cubes sticking out like a button on the top. "My pride and joy: The Big One." She said.
"What does it do?" Cable asked.
"Imagine if the atom bomb and the hydrogen bomb had a very hardcore one night stand. This would be their bastard baby." She said with a smirk.
"And you keep it in your fridge?" He asked with an unsure look on his face..
"It was wrapped and kept in a Tupperware bowl." She countered. "It can create a destructive beam so powerful that it will level anything in its path. Kinda like a Dragon Ball Z Spirit Bomb sort of deal. It can be used more than once, the battery has a lifespan of four hundred years. The only catch is that only I can activate it."
"Go ahead and tell him why, my little spark plug." Wade encouraged.
Betty rolled her eyes, but answered anyway. "My mutation allows me to manipulate electricity and control technology. This cube will only unlock with a particular pattern and the right amount of electricity."
"What kind of pattern?" Cable asked.
"My brain wave pattern." She then turned around and lifted her shirt to reveal her back. Along her spine was a pattern that reminded him of a circuit board. "The circuits spread across my body and help me connect to any form of technology. I can either run it the way it was made, or give it a kick-ass upgrade. I can unlock the electric switch using my brain wave pattern and generate enough electricity to set it off. But both have to be done at the exact same time or else."
"Wait! You never mentioned this part to me!" Wade said. "Or else what?"
"Or else...we all go bye-bye." She answered softly as if it were not to be said out loud.
"You seriously think that this is a good idea?" Cable asked the mercenary. "I mean, she's crazy compared to you, and that's sayin' something."
"I prefer the term 'eccentric.'" Betty said, causing both men to turn to her. "Besides, when your brain has been to the places mine has been, you tend to not return the way you left." She then went to her room to change into something she could move more easily in. Something she knew she could fight in.
