It was an average day for a seemingly average class at a certain High school. Mr. Anderson had spent his whole day teaching the class in a boring monotone of a voice that nearly all teachers were known for. His dreadfully long lecture finally ended a few minutes before the dismissing bell rang. He briefly described their upcoming assignment, which involved researching an 'influential person in the history of politics' with an assigned partner. He continued to read the list of partners.
"Ms. Gonzales with Mr. Thomson, Ms. Watons with Mr. Foley, Ms. Hardy with Mr. Hawkins... and lastly Mr. Parker with Ms. Stacy." Virgil groan at hearing who he was paired up with, (Just great guess I'll be doing this on my own again.) Virgil sigh not caring about the mounts of glares being sent his way be fellow male students who'd kill to be partnered with Felicia Hardy.
Two students straightened up in their seats, one of those students being Flash Thomson himself. Flash: the handsome star foot ball player, the one most girls at the school's wanted to get with, however there were a few girls who couldn't stand him and wish he just die, one of them currently had a look of horror on her face at who was her assigned partner.
"Score, number two with the biggest rack in the whole grad is all mine." Flash whisper with a smirk looking at Michele who felt sick to her stomach, Michele Gonzales— slumped back into her chair, the horror look dissipating from her face and replaced by an annoyed frown as the bell rang. The stunning Latina gracefully rose to her feet and slipped her bag over one shoulder. but not before sending a glare at Gwen who smirk at her and flick her off.
"And everyone don't forget that candidate for mayor Ron Sawyer is coming here tomorrow to pitch a speech on why he should be mayor at the end of the day." Mr. Anderson as everyone begin to file out when bell ring.
Felicia Hardy made her with to the dark skin teen dress in blue jeans and a red shirt who was putting his book in his bag then spun around to face her only to open roll his eyes at the girl. Her blue-green eyes narrowed as she glared at him with obvious fury at him being annoyed with her.
"Listen geek, If you cost me my grade, you'll regret it. I promise I'll make your life a living hell if that grade falls anywhere near a D." she hissed through her perfectly glossed lips, Virgil however was by no means Intimidated by her and simply roll his eyes at the girl again.
"Look queen bee, I know how this works your the poplar girl and I'm the geek. While I'm doing all the work you'll be at the mall buying new shoes, just make sure when I gave you your half of the work you actually read so if he question you can answer them and not fail us both." Virgil mutter throwing his bag over his shoulder and walking away leaving a stun Felicia behind whose jaw was drop, she close it and glare so hard that it look like she was trying to burn him with it.
"Ohh, did he tell you off or what." Gwen chuckle walking pass her, "It seem Senor Hawkins bolas have drop." Michele added walking behind Gwen who she still wanted to kill, Felicia huff at the two girl who were after the same guy, Peter Parker. Felicia still didn't get what they saw in him but Felicia would agree he was a better choice then Flash who had the IQ of a walnut.
"So you finally going to use this chance to ask out Gwen?" Virgil opening his Locker neck to Peter who was putting his books in his, "I still say she doesn't like me that way." Virgil sigh it had been a month already since he came to this world and had yet to find a way back home, he had more or less gotten use to being in here and made quite a few new friends, one being a geeky boy name Peter Parker who couldn't seem to understand that at least two girls had the hots for him.
"Look your going to Osborn Corporations with Harry and Frieda, right? Just ask Gwen if she would to tag along. I'm sure she'll say yes." Virgil said Peter look down at his feet still unsure until a certain blond hair girl step between the two.
"Ask me what?" Gwen said looking at the two before Peter could reply Virgil spoke first.
"Peter here was wondering if you could with him and his two friends to Osborn Industries for a tour he going on." Virgil said getting a glare from the brown hair glasses wearing teen, Gwen's face seem to light up at his word.
"That be great! We can even take the chance to talk about our project after words." Gwen grinned shocking Peter that she actually said yes, Virgil chuckle walking away. Peter was one of the smartest guys around but a moron when it came to girls.
"Hey V-man!" some called, turn around Virgil saw it was Richie running down the hall to him.
"Yo Richie ma man, what up?" Virgil said fist bumping him, "Hey dude I heard you luck out and got stuck with Felicia sorry about that." Richie said, neither of them noticing said person glaring at the two from across the hall.
"Tch, I'll make due somehow." Virgil said not all that down about, "Well if you want you can study with me and Mary Jane." Richie offer but Virgil just shake his head no.
"Nah I'll manage beside our two groups can't both do the same person, beside this is your chance to get some one on one time with MJ." Virgil replied, though the true reason because he wanted to do a patrol tonight and having a partner that didn't to study with him actually work for the better to Virgil. Richie was a little let down as the pass month Virgil and his friends hadn't hang out as much as they use to and was beginning to wonder if something was going on about his best friend he didn't know of.
In fact he wasn't the only one to notice the change in Virgil, Mary, Joey, Gwen, Peter, Harry and Frieda also notice he change in many ways in the last month. For starters Virgil had bulk up quite a bit and now had the physic of a football player and went from being 5.11 to 6.2 a long with his dreadlocks coming down to his back and needing to be tie up in a pony tail... yeah that had weird them all out and everyone was starting to worry about him.
"Well I need to get going, got a lot of work to do and no partner to do it with, Later man." Virgil said walking away as his best friend look on in worry.
Later on that day, night time had fallen as it just turn 9:00 and on 4th street a woman was taking a short cut through an ally, when five men surround her backing the her into a corner.
"Hey there little lady, can we borrow some money?" one of them ask holding a metal pipe.
"Please I don't want any trouble, I just want to go home." the lady name Sara stutter holding out her hand bag for them to take, she had been working all night and hadn't been asleep at all that why she was in hurry to get home but now, it might have gotten her kill.
"Sure... after we have some fun!" a bald one grinned looking her up and down with a sicking expression on his face, it was clear money wasn't all they wanted, suddenly a electric blast hit the one with the pipe knocking into the other wall and out cold.
"What the?" 'BZZZD!' that was as far as they got before each of them was hit with a electric blast leading them to scream in pain and pass out Sara could only stare at what happen for a second and look up seeing someone fly away from there. "He's... real?"
In the town of Bayville, a man known as Professor Charles Xavier was at his desk doing paper work, he was currently looking at the replied on a girl name he had been working with name Wanda Maximoff, the daughter of his old friend who had broken out of the asylum she was in when another patient who had been brought there a month ago burn the place to the ground. both had not been seen since then. Before he could read any father Logan, one of his teacher's came in with a frown on his face.
"Hey chuck, our boy is at it again." Logan grunt as he take the remote off of Charles desk and turn on the flat screen T.V. hanging on the wall, quickly turning to the 9 News, 'We have yet to find out who this mysterious youth but with more and more siting it clear to every one he is more then just a myth.' the screen then turn to a Caucasian man and woman.
'Myth, pretender? That person was real! And he save my family...' the man said holding his wife who was close to tears, 'If he hadn't show up when he did, we might, we might- oh god! I just want to say who every you are, keep doing what your doing! And Thank you!'
'These are just some of the reports we receive, but real live poof of him has yet to be brought in, right now the daily bugle is offering a reward for a photos of this so called hero and-' it was at that point Logan turn it off and the Professor sigh.
"Chuck I know he doing good things with his powers but if this keep up..." Logan train off as he knew Charles got the point, said man rub his man tiredly.
"I know Logan, I know but no mutter how hard I try, Cerebro can not locate him!" Logan could tell this was getting to him, Static was what he call himself and he pop up about a months ago. They had been trying find him since than, and some how he was able to avoid detection by Cerebro making finding the him a very hard thing to do.
"Look Chuck, there been too many close calls with these guys and with the Newspaper offering a reward for pictures of both I think it time we need step our game up." Logan said making Charles raise an eye brow.
"Not yet but give me some time, and the meanwhile have the kids ready to move out." Logan said getting a knock getting a nodded.
"Dude, if I didn't know any better I swear you were trying to hurt me." Static said jokey as he easily dodge the slow and messes stab of a robber before grabbing his hand and punching him in the face. He had just been flying around when he spotted these breaking into this place and carrying what look like stolen goods.
"Man you guys really suck, I've face pick pocket better then you lot." Static quip 'BAM!' only to be hit with a shipping crated as one of the thugs operating the lift laugh at hitting the hero, Static went skipping across the ground stopping when his head hit another create on the floor.
"Okay ow! Guess that god way of not letting my ego get the best of me." Static mutter rubbing his head.
"That or I'm just a klutz." he added, flipping to his feet, not even bothering to look at the thugs pointing guns at him and simply wave his hand at them as they fire, their jaws drop when the bullets literately slow down right before they stop in mid air all together than drop to the ground. Already growing tire of this fight Static charge his hand and sent several electric bolt at the remain thugs knocking them at with a single hit each.
"Whelp, that's that. Time to tie these guys up and call it a night, I actually do have to get started on that history assignment." Static mutter spotting a chain near by and quickly went to tying them up with it before heading outside after calling the cops, doing a Superman pose as static grinned he was clearly enjoying himself. After coming to this world Static didn't have a clue of what happen to Hotstreak or how to get back home, but there was a upside to coming here. Namely that for some reason his powers had gotten a major boost, enough to let him fly through sky without the need of his disk.
"Well time to get to one of my new favorite pass times!" he grinned flying off, however a certain figure watch him go with a sly smirk on her face before pulling out a cell phone.
"Hello Mystique, how is he?" a dark booming voice came from over the cell phone, "He's even better then we thought, I've already set up everything. If all goes well he'll be another fine addition to the brotherhood."
"Good hopefully with him under our control we'll be able to keep the other two in line as well." the voice said and Mystique smirk, "Just leave thing to me... Magneto!"
The next day had come and just about gone, Virgil sat in the school auditorium with pretty much the rest of the school student body, most of his friends was spreed out in the auditorium and the only he was close by was Gwen who was sitting next to him.
"I'm sorry but did you say that the reason Peter didn't come in today was because he got bite by a spider!?" Virgil ask with a surprise expression while looking at the blond punk rocker girl next to him who sat with a frown.
"Yeah, everything was going great, and it seem like Peter was finally going to ask me out when one of Oscorps steroid abusing spider's drop down on him out of no where and bite him on the neck!" Gwen growl, she didn't care to admit she had a crush on Peter to Virgil since unlike Michele she was smart enough to get one of Peter's friends to help her out but that still didn't mean she like how their day ended yesterday. Not only didn't they get to study together but she was sure Peter was just three words away from asking her to the movies!
"Steroid abusing?" Virgil question.
"Yeah, you should have seen the thing, it was as big as my hand!" Gwen replied still a bit creep out by the size of it.
"I swear if the spider gave my soon to be geeky boyfriend cancer or something I'm going to burn Oscorps to the ground myself!" she snarl still completely mad at having her golden chance snitch away from her.
"That a bit much don't you think?" Virgil ask in a scary tone, Gwen was a girl that truly frighten him at time, even if they were friends. Gwen look at Virgil with a glare causing him to gulp.
"No! Beside, who lets one of their experiments loose then host a tour in that very lad in the same day! Not only that but also-" Gwen's rant was cut short when the lights went out in the stage lite up showing a man dress in a blue business suit with button up and brown hair. Ron Sawyer.
"Lady's and gentlemen, thanks you coming here, I word first like to-" and that how it went, for two hours Ron spoke on and on about his plans for New York and how telling their parents to support him would be best for the city, he seem completely unaware of how many students had fell asleep doing his speech. Even Virgil who normally enjoy these kind of things was pass out with Gwen who head was resting on his shoulder.
"Not only do I promise a drop in crime but also- DAAAAM -huh?" he gasp as nearly everyone work up when the lights when out, "Ugh, what going on, is it over?" Virgil mutter waking up with Gwen who rubbed her eyes to get the sleep out of them but then notice it was completely dark.
"What the...?" Gwen mumble as she and Virgil look around but could see nothing in the dark focusing a little power to his eyes gave him better night vision then normally "GAHHH!" and he could see what look like a girl just drop kick Ron Sawyer in the face knocking him to the floor!
"Crap!" Virgil gasp watching who look like knife appear in her hand aiming it at Sawyer, acting fast Virgil quickly stuck his hand out and use his Electromagnetic control over metal to take a hold of a flag pole on stage and use it to knock the girl away from Sawyer, 'BABOOOOOOOOOOOM' a loud explosion rock the school knocking everyone off their feet as the school shake!
"Oh what now!?" Gwen cried as parts of the ceiling began to crumble and everyone began screaming as they ran for the door, "Come on Gwen we have t get out of here!" Virgil yell pulling Gwen along through the crowd of screaming students "AIEEEEEEEE!" until a scream caught their attention and both turn to see Felicia buried under some rubble.
"Oh you've got to be kidding me!" Virgil groan as he and Felicia ran back to pick up the falling debris off the girl and help her to her feet.
"Thanks I ya one." Felicia mutter in pain as she held on to Virgil's shoulder, she had twisted her ankle in thee fall, "Yeah, yeah, yeah, now lets get out of here before something else hap-" "SOMEONE HELP ME!" "OH COME ON!" Gwen shouted as the three look up to the stage and saw the same girl was once again attacking Sawyer.
"I'll go help, you get mutter Felicia out of here!" Virgil spoke pushing Felicia and into Gwen's arms and ran off leaving both Gwen and Felicia stun, "Wait are you crazy!" Felicia called after him, Virgil payed neither of them any mind as he ran up to the stage and jump on just as the girl had knock Sawyer to the ground and raise her knife to finish him off 'BZZZZZZZZZZD' only to scream in pain when she was blasted in the back by Virgil who was thankful it was so dark so no one should be able to make out who he was.
"UGGGHHH!" the girl groan in pain as she was blasted to the other side of the stage and stun for the moment, Virgil ran up to Sawyer who was still down on the floor hold his right shoulder that was bleeding.
"Are you alright? Virgil ask and he gave a quick painful grunt of yes, Virgil look up and saw the girl was getting up and slowly moving to the doorway by the stage.
"Can you move?" Virgil ask helping him to his feet, again he gave a quick yes, "Good, you get out of here while I go after your attacker!" Virgil order and run off. Reach the door by the stage where the girl was leaning on the lockers breathing hard, upon spotting him she growl like some kind of animal and take a stand, 'Snikt' Virgil's mouth ran dry as the brown haired girl in a leather wet suit who that the knife he thought she was hold were in fact metal claws that pop out of her knuckles!
"Heh... that a new one!" Virgil said grinning nervously having never face someone like her before, "Grrrrrr!" she roar lunging at him in prime fury, 'KKKSSSSSSHHHH' "KYAAAAAAA!" only to hit an electric barrier and fall down in pain!
"Whoa, there, I think we could use at least three dates before we're ready for such close contact!" Virgil quip lighting up his hands with electricity as the girl glare at him before jumping back to her feet, (I can't beat him like this!) she thought anger written all over her face before turning around and making a made dash down the hall with Virgil hot on her tail.
"Oh no ya don't claw girl, there no way I'm letting you get away!" Virgil shouted running after her but the girl was moving surprisingly fast for someone who was just shock three time in the last few minutes, reaching the end of the hall she smash in window in front of her open with a kick then jump on the ledge before jumping into the air. Virgil quick reach the broke window in time to look out and see the unknown girl climb into a helicopter that quickly flew off.
"That just great." Virgil groan, "One month in this world and I already got a super human nemesis... at least she hot." Virgil said the last with a half smile before turning back to head for the front door.
"What the hell do you mean it was Virgil, Flash!?" Virgil has just reach the front door and just as he was about to go outside Gwen's voice cause him to pause in place.
"I'll telling you he was the one that nearly blew the school!" Flash stated causing Virgil's eyes to twitch, "Say what now?" Virgil's whisper as Gwen, Flash, and Felicia 'who was on a stretcher' were talking a policemen.
"Are you a complete retarded! There's no way Virgil would do anything like that!" Gwen exclaimed glaring at Flash who glare back, "I must agree, Virgil not that kind of guy who'd just blow up a school for no reason, what grounds do you even have for saying that?" Felicia said getting a surprise look from Virgil 'who was still hiding in the doorway' and Gwen who sent a grateful smile at Felicia glad she was on her side.
"She right kid, do you have any poof to show before you go in get one of your classmates in trouble?" the Officer ask, Flash grunted pulling out his cell phone, after unlocking the screen who quickly went to text messages.
"He sent a text to me, the rest of the football team and a whole lot of other people bragging about how he was going to blow up the school doing the Ron Sawyer speech!" Flash stated shocking them as Gwen look at the number and was horrified to see it was Virgil!
(That's... BULLSHIT! I lost my cell phone nearly a week ago! I haven't even gotten a new one yet!) Virgil thought in horror as he slowly but away from the door until a arm suddenly snake around his chest and a hand cover his mouth to keep him from yelling when he turn around and look into a pair of nearly pure white eyes... part of a person with blue skin and red hair!
"I'm going to let go of you now. Do. Not. Scream." Virgil slowly nodded quite Intimidated, he was let go and turn to fully face them only to realize that this blue skin person was in fact a woman wearing a rather reveling white dress with white gloves and white boots.
"Good, now if you don't want to spend the rest of your life in prison I suggest you follow me." she said, Virgil gulp and nodded, she smirk then turn around and ran off with Virgil behind her.
After getting several miles away from the school the lady brought Virgil to the top of a roof of a six story building, once she was sure they were safe the lady turn to him to speak.
"Okay, first off my name is Mystique, and I work for a group called the Brotherhood." Mystique begin, Virgil several times before talking, "Nice to meet ya Mystique, could ya explain to me what the hell is going on!" Virgil yell causing her to sigh.
"Well as you've likely guess, you've been set up." Mystique replied dryly and Virgil's shoulder's drop, the group who set you up is name H.Y.D.R.A.!" Mystique begin leaving him more confuse then before.
"H.Y.D.R.A. is a human criminal organization who main take on mission to kill off certain people like Ron Sawyer who been coming dangerously close to putting a certain kingpin behind bars who been funding them."
"Okay so they want to kill Sawyer, that suck but it got to due with me?" Virgil ask and Mystique gave a grim smile, "Because they don't want a powerful Mutant like you running free."
"Mutant?" he question stun by what he was hearing as Mystique place her hand on him, "Yes, Mutant that is what we are called, their plan was to set you up for the bombing and possible Sawyers death so you'd be place in prison... then they could kill you at a later date."
"No way..." Virgil whisper unable to believe this, how had he even gotten mix up in this crap he hadn't but everything seem to be true as he certainly didn't blow up the school or sent out that text, (Did they steal my cell phone for this? I am so screwed!) Virgil thought knowing he couldn't go home now or he risk his moms job.
"You probably already know this but if you go back your as good as finish, come with me. It time to be with your own kind." Mystique said as Virgil look back to the blue skin lady.
"Who are you and why are you helping me?" Virgil ask and she gave a dark grin, "Like I said, my name is Mystique, and I have need for you, my dear Voltage."
