Author's Notes-Sorry about changing the title, but I felt this title fit better. Also, about Cesar. As of now(near August 2011), Cesar doesn't seem like a bad guy. He might be working for Van Kleiss as part of his mind games, but I think he genuinely cares about Rex. Wulf's origin is only a theory I found somewhere on the Internet. Also, there's going to be a Ben 10/Generator Rex crossover! I can hardly wait till Thanksgiving!
Gatherings
Chapter 3-X-Men EVOlution
ORGANIZATION 13 HEADQUARTERS, 1 HOUR BEFORE PROVIDENCE IS ATTACKED
"Well,wasn't that a damn fine screw up! You proved that your resident numbskulled idiot couldn't kill those pathetic,untrained brats!"General Silver shouted, as the Juggler ranting about the perceived 'screw up'.
"Would you shut up? He did a lot better than any of you government stooges ever did, also he managed to kill thirty-eight demigods as well as a few of their mystical allies. And that has earned us the equivalent of almost two hundred hearts,so please cork it,"grumbled Axel.
"Also, those pathetic, untrained brats are thoroughly trained in every type of martial arts, javelin throwing, among other sports, have many magical weapons,potions,and inventions, not to mention the powers granted by their godly heritage,"Emma Frost commented.
"Which was proved by their capability of defeating Kronos, as well as his army of Titans, and all of the other threats they faced, including but not limited to, Medusa, the Minotaur, Atlas,Hades,Hyperion, among others,"Blackheart finished.
"However, I must congratulate Slade. He did a delightful job of keeping the Joes and a good number of the X-Men away from the demigods, so the Heartless could pick them off easier,"Sebastian Shaw commented.
"However, the number of heroes affiliated with the keybladers are growing bothersome. The Justice League, the Teen Titans, the Ghostbusters and their magical allies,Ben Tennyson and the Plumbers,the Slayers and Watchers,and now the demigods and residents of Ledgerdomain,"Selene added to the conversation.
"Also, more bad news. Those idiotic Mogadorians were wiped out by those pathetic Lorien brats,and they've met up with the Teen Titans in Jump City, which led to the Titans banishing them from this world with the help of Tennyson and his allies,"Harry Leland said.
"We need to thin out the keybladers' allies. They can't be that difficult to kill,"added Donald Pierce. "The Reavers have had contact with a bounty hunter named Gatlocke. He has had troubles with an organization named Providence,made to combat the EVO threat,"
"What does this have to do with anything? A bunch of worthless flatscans in Stormtrooper suits who can't rid the world of nanites? They don't sound effective to me,"Larxene sneered, the Organization member aimlessly twirling her two knives.
"Well, maybe if you hadn't interrupted me, you would have learned the real reason behind this. Now, as I was saying before I was rudely interrupted,"Pierce glared at Larxene,"Providence has a servant. A teenager named Rex Salazar. He has technomorphic abilities from the nanites infecting this world. Fortunately, the Hellfire Club is cured of these nanites,"
"A lone boy? What does this concern us? He can't be as much of a threat as the keybladers, the Ghostbusters,or the Justice League,"Saix asked.
"This 'lone boy' has defeated Van Kleiss, stopped a good number of EVO threats that would give most of us a hard time, and also has helped the Justice League in the past,"Donald replied rudely.
Most of the Hellfire Club raised fingers or simply made a fist to disagree with the cyborg, but the Superior held up a hand to stop the likely derogatory comments.
"He is right. Providence is a threat. Vexen, it is your turn again to fight the troublesome heroes. Also, bring Project:Trump Card,"the Superior ordered.
"Well,I have business with an old acquaintance of mine. I shall be leaving shortly,"Slade Wilson commented, the assassin leaving the room in a flash of light, as the teleporter dispatched him to an unknown location.
PROVIDENCE HEADQUARTERS
The battle between Providence and the Heartless raged on, but even with Providence's advanced weaponry, they were being eliminated.
"Simmons,duck!"Captain Callan instructed. The captain wielded an M-16 in combat, aside from his usual jet, which was in the hangar, far from the battle.
However, Callan's cries were unheard, as Simmons was hit by a black lightning shaft, and he crumbled to nothingness, his heart flying into the sky. Callan was soon the only one remaining, and he was the last one to die.
"Cesar,people are dying out here!"Rex shouted angrily, his Boogie Pack flying towards the remains of the Heartless battle. He soon saw the twelve Heartless and Vexen standing over a destroyed cafeteria, with shredded clothes and weapons of Providence recruits strewn around the battlefield.
"Rex, get out of there! You're not strong enough!"Rex's genius brother shouted, horrified at the prospect of his younger brother dying.
"Cesar,I have to stop them from killing more people! These people are worse than Van Kleiss,Quarry,and Hunter Cain combined!"Rex shouted back, descending in front of the Heartless. Vexen glanced at him with an almost bored expression.
"Heartless,steal this young fool's heart," Vexen spoke. Twelve shafts of black lightning all charged towards Rex Salazar, but the technomorph unleashed his Punk Busters, and leaped on top of a Heartless, stomping it into the ground,severely damaging it. Rex dove to the side, his left arm morphing into a sword.
"Taste the BFS,Heartless creeps!"crowed the sixteen-year old, his Big Fat Sword swiping three Heartless backwards, before Rex morphed again, this time taking the form of the Rex Ride, the lower part of his body transforming into a motorcycle-like automobile.
The Rex Ride pummeled into a Heartless, but one grabbed it and threw it aside. A black lightning shaft narrowly missed the EVO,as Rex used another one of his abilities to attack the Heartless. A blue backpack morphed on his back, and his right arm formed into a blue and black whip. The Heartless was smacked by the lashes Rex threw, but Rex knew he couldn't win on his own.
He wouldn't have to. A sudden rush of nuclear energy peppered the Heartless, as Nathaniel Adams descended below.
"Whoa. Sweet,"Rex dumbly commented.
"Captain Atom, at your service," the superhero spoke, as Flash and Green Lantern rushed in behind him. Wally West blitzed the Heartless at super-speed, tripping them all with ease, while Green Lantern grasped them all with Oan energy, and then slammed them together. One crumbled to the ground,defeated.
The Misfits dove in behind the Heartless, but suddenly, they all felt woozy. All of the keyblade- wielding Misfits fainted, dead on the ground. The League,Ghostbusters,Rex,and X-Men were all stunned by this turn of events.
"Hey! What the hell!"Beach Head shouted, launching a bazooka at a Heartless.
"You think we haven't destroyed that dumb mutt's magic in the past? Please,"Vexen sneered, an icy barrage of energy flying into the crowd,freezing Piotr Rasputin and John Stewart.
Suddenly, three slash marks appeared in thin air. "Wolverine?"wondered Jean Grey, as another trio of slash marks appeared.
The slash marks finally opened up a portal, and out emerged one of the strangest groups the heroes had ever seen(And that was saying something).
A bipedal ghostly wolf emerged from the portal. Covered in ectoplasm from head to toe, he also had dark, black fur, as well as ferocious seven inch claws on all ten fingers. Wulf was a ghost of a werewolf, who was killed by an angry mob in the late 1800's.
Second was a girl. All that could describe her was a feminine version of Danny Phantom. She appeared to have all of his powers, and his appearance. Danielle Fenton was a female clone of Danny,created by Vlad Plasmius in order to kill the aforementioned half-ghost.
Third was an enormous dog. Calling it enormous did it no justice. It was almost as tall as the ceiling. Like Wulf, Cujo was covered in ectoplasm. As of now, he was growling,ferociously looking for someone to destroy.
"Danny Phantom's allies have arrived,"Quentin Blud commented.
"Wow,I did not expect that,"commented Flash.
However, a rain of black lightning interrupted them. John Stewart's frozen body was suddenly freed by a rush of green energy from the Oan power ring he wielded, and Stewart turned that energy on the Heartless, a Gatling gun construct rapidly firing at them, keeping a few Heartless at bay.
Piotr Rasputin chucked a piece of the Providence walls at a Heartless, but it maneuvered out of the way, and then sent Colossus flying with a black lightning shaft. Cyclops managed to fire a shot into the air, causing pieces of rubble to rain down on Vexen, but the Chilly Academic managed to blast the rubble into ice cubes with his mystical cryokinetic capabilities.
Cujo dashed forward, assaulting Vexen with a feral onslaught of claws and teeth. Vexen managed to escape his assault by bashing Cujo in the upper jaw with his shield, before freezing the dog solid. Cujo managed to escape, but he was winded by the assault.
Vexen was then tag-teamed by Rogue,Dani Phantom,and Captain Atom, who attacked him with every might of their strength. Vexen skidded backwards on the clear Providence floor, before throwing a barrage of razor-sharp icicles. Dani and Rogue were pegged by the icy projectiles,but fortunately unharmed. Nathaniel Adams flew forward, and decked Vexen, sending the Nobody flying, but Vexen then did something very dangerous to kill the expanded Leaguer.
A short time ago,Organization 13 made an ally of Loki, the God of Mischief, who readily gave the Nobodies help, especially since Thor had recently joined SHIELD's Avengers project. He had also increased the Organization's abilities by implanting Asgardian abilities into them. Vexen created a Frost Giant, akin to the ones referenced in Norse mythology.
Captain Atom was bashed backwards by the Frost Giant's enormous fist, and the Niffleheim denizen brutally assaulted the nuclear hero. Nuclear blasts held no effect, and neither did Cyclops' optical blasts or Rex's Slam Cannon.
Vexen then unleashed a blizzard, sending every single hero flying backwards. The Frost Giant roared, as its power increased exponentially. All the heroes were taken down by this assault, aside from John Stewart, Nathaniel Adams,Rex Salazar,Jean Grey,Cooper G. MacBride,Manny Armstrong,Helen Wheels,Wulf,Quentin Blud,and Cooper Daniels.
Wulf,Manny and Low Light charged at Vexen. Low Light dashed towards Vexen using an oxygen form, but then he morphed into magnesium, and the ensuing eruption stopped the blizzard, and also made the Frost Giant stumble. Wulf then used Vexen's surprised hesitation as an opportunity to stab Vexen, right in the chest. Vexen however, scowled at the fatal assault, and froze the two solid, being careful to make it so even intangible being couldn't escape from it.
Loki had granted all of the Nobodies a healing factor, to further assist them in their quest to gain Hearts. This made the heroes job a lot harder, but that didn't mean they wouldn't try.
Manny decked Vexen in the nose,sending the Organization member flying, while Helen unleashed a bicycle kick at super-speed, sending Vexen to the floor. Vexen then decided to use a Heartless spore, and hurled it at Henry McCoy's frozen body.
Out emerged a being that was actually quite similar to Beast himself, only with much darker fur, and red eyes, making a much more daunting experience. And since the keybladers were all unconscious and frozen solid, the Dark Beast would have little trouble wiping out the heroes.
"Cooper Daniels," was all that Cooper heard.
"What! Are you the same being that the Misfits heard? Am I getting a keyblade too? Because we really need it!"the Plumber's Helper gulped, watching as Dark Beast brutally mauled Quentin Blud and Manny Armstrong, taking the dhampir and the Tetramand-human hybrid down with ease.
"Yes. You have a keyblade. Simply summon it," the voice soothingly commented.
Without thinking, Cooper simply shouted. "Technomorpha!"the Plumber-in-training shouted.
Out emerged a blue and black keyblade, glowing with electricity, and humming electronically. This keyblade appeared to be more technologically based than the other keyblades,and amazingly he wasn't falling asleep like the other keybladers.
"You know what to say,"the voice told him.
"METALLICA!" Cooper began, and almost twenty large missiles appeared in the air, each ominously aiming towards the Heartless,Vexen, and the Frost Giant.
"MISSILE ONSLAUGHT!"the Plumber shouted,and the missiles all pounded on the enemies, killing all of the Heartless except two, and destroying the Frost Giant in an explosion of ice.
Vexen decided to make a hasty retreat, right as two very odd beings emerged. The Chilly Academic teleported away back to the Organization's base.
One was a bald man in Japanese robes, who wielded a bo staff in combat. His face was grinning with a love of combat, and he was about to exercise this love.
"Hozukimaru,Extend!"the robed man shouted, and his bo staff extended, seeming akin to an enlarged pair of nunchuks.
The other man had a distinct black haircut, as well as sunglasses. He wielded a large bladed scimitar as his weapon of choice.
The strangers brutally attacked the Heartless, slicing them to bits, and watching in interest as Hearts emerged from the creatures of Darkness.
"I suppose we have some explaining to do, huh?"the bald man mused.
NEXT TIME ON GATHERINGS.
Who are these strange beings? Our heroes will soon find out, and why did the Misfits fall asleep when Vexen arrived? All will be answered next time on Gatherings.
