Chapter 4. Meet the Brotherhood.
Okay so far I've had 2 votes for XANA returning and 1 for it being a mutant in the guise of XANA.
Sorry if any of you noticed that I skipped the Middle verse episode, I forgot while I was writing that chapter. I'm probably going to skip out a couple of episodes since it follows Odd and Aelita.
Odd and Aelita were walking in town with the rest of the gang when Odd held her nose.
"Ugh! What's that horrifying stench? It smells like rotten fish, eggs and garbage juice!" she exclaimed.
Everyone but Aelita and Odd suddenly knew where the smell was coming from.
"Hey I don't smell that bad yo!" came an annoying voice.
"Actually Toad you do." came a quick and snaky voice.
The X-Men turned round to see the Brotherhood standing behind them.
"Ever heard of a thing called soap." said Odd from behind her sleeve she was using to block her nose.
"Yeah as if I haven't heard that one before. Look were here to deliver a message to the new girls." said Toad.
"And that message is we're the big guys around here, and if your smart you should stay out of our way." said Blob.
Aelita and Odd looked at each other before laughing out loud.
"Ha-ha, are you, ha-ha, threatening us?" laughed out Odd.
They couldn't help it, these guys were trying to seem big but when you've battled XANA people like that just make you laugh.
"Stop laughing at me!" shouted Blob ready to attack.
Odd and Aelita finally stopped laughing.
"What makes you think we're going to be afraid of you idiots?" said Odd.
"Why don't we show you." said Avalanche rolling back his eyes and creating a earthquake.
Aelita quickly shed her coat and untied her wings and took to the air while Odd just used her cat agility to jump away.
"You missed." taunted Aelita.
The Brotherhood looked up to see Aelita flying high above them and Odd sitting on top of a near by street lamp. Odd took aim with her arm and fired an arrow at Avalanche pinning him to the ground.
The others sat by the side and watched the battle between the Brotherhood and the girls.
"Hey isn't she wearing something like blue-boy's watch?" said Quicksilver pointing at Odd's image inducer.
Before anyone could act Toad spat some slime which covered the inducer shorting it out. The Brotherhood widened their eyes since they were expecting Odd to be like Kurt, but they saw Odd's cat features and laughed.
"Aw she's just a kitten." said Quicksilver.
The Brotherhood didn't notice the growl that was coming from Odd but Aelita and the X-Men did and smartly moved away.
Odd pounced on Quicksilver sending him flying into the ground, she dove on Blob but moved out of the way in time to avoid a slime ball which hit Blob's face instead and Odd then punched Blob knocking him out. She landed on the ground and fired some arrows at Toad pinning him to a tree, she fired more arrows at Avalanche once again pinning him down. Odd stood up and began to walk away when Quicksilver came running up from behind trying to take her by surprise, Odd just simply steeped to the side and stuck out her arm. There was an almighty crunch when Quicksilver's face made contact with Odd's fist and he fell to the ground holding his face.
Odd brushed her self off and walked over to the group holding the hand she used to knock out Quicksilver.
"Kurt can you take me back to the institute." she asked.
"Okay." he said.
Kurt grabbed hold of Odd's good wrist and teleported them.
"Wow, remind me never to get her mad." said Spike still starring at the beaten up Brotherhood.
"For all you sakes I don't think anyone should mention this." said Aelita.
Everyone nodded their heads in agreement.
Little did the X-Men know a crow had been watching the whole fight. The crow flew into the school through a window and morphed into Mystique.
*That girls fighting was incredible, I can't help but think there's even more to her than I saw today.* she thought as she contacted her boss.
Mystique told her boss of what she saw and how she took down all the Brotherhood on her own.
"A powerful mutant that is no doubt, and she has more than one power interesting." her boss said. "Give me a copy of all the information you have on her."
And with that her boss hung up and Mystique got to work.
Kurt took Odd to the infirmary to get her wrist bandaged up as soon as they arrived back home. She got a telling off from Storm and a nod of approval from Wolverine.
Aelita were now in their bedroom ready to sneak out for their job.
"I'm worried, I've never lost control like that." said Odd.
"It's you natural animal instinct that's all." said Aelita.
"Still a problem. What if next time it's an innocent?"
"Odd stop worrying about it and you'll be fine."
"Okay know let's go, don't want to be late."
Odd and Aelita left with pillows under the covers to look like their sleeping forms. Odd and Aelita stopped to pick up Kiwi on the way as they headed to their job.
Holding another vote. Tell me what you think Aelita and Odd's X-Man names should be, then I'll chose the best 2 to be the names.
Keep the feedback coming.
