AN: Well, things have gone from bad to worse for Michael, Yusuke, and William. Not only do they have to deal with Rayzor trying to explore a new city, but the X-Men have arrived, trying to figure out what this beast is doing and tracking down the four of them. Well, what else can happen now?

Chapter Seven: Rayzor Unbound: Come Out and Play, X-Men!

Yusuke and William stood in the middle of the street as Michael began to stand there, removing his cloak as if he was preparing himself for battle. Yusuke found himself looking back and forth between the advancing X-Men.

"Mikey, you better be thinking of something quick, because those guys are going to be on our asses in a minute!" Yusuke said.

Michael looked back at Yusuke, and just huffed as he threw his cloak to the sidewalk. He looked back at his friend with a smile on his face.

"Go get our friend, and I will keep these guys busy." Michael said in a calm tone of voice.

"Are you sure?" William asked.

"I am sure. Go. I am going to have some fun." Michael said.

Yusuke and William exchanged one look of curiosity, and took off after their wolf beast friend. Once they were gone, Michael knew what he had to do.

Well, X-Men, prepare to get rocked like a hurricane.


"How can a wolf thing that big move so quickly and swiftly?" Yusuke said, breathing deeply as he and William stood there, looking around for any sign of their wolf like friend.

"I don't know, Yusuke." William stated. "He has a head start on us, and looking for him in the dark is a moot point right now."

"Wait, why would you say that?" Yusuke asked.

"We are running around in a foreign city, and it is nighttime. This is a time that David, or Rayzor at this moment in time, will thrive at." William said.

"You are saying that we are not going to find him, right?" Yusuke asked William once more.

"Of course, we are going to find him, at least I hope so. All we have to do damage control, and we can't even find him. What are we going to do, run around in the dark in a city we don't even know about until we find him? I am not going to waste my time doing that my friend, sorry." William said.

"Great, if David was here, he could use his Jagan to find himself." Yusuke moaned. William looked at his acquaintance as if he had just lost his mind.

"Yusuke, play back what you just said." William said.

"I said- Oh, right sorry." Yusuke said, acknowledging his own stupidity with a laugh. Just then, without any warning, a big dark figure ran right past them. Yusuke and William looked at each other, and shrugged.

"Well, that was easy, wasn't it?" Yusuke stated, with a smile.

"Yeah, let's go get our boy." William shrugged, as they began to run after their transformed friend.


Michael, in his older age form, stood in the middle of the street as Logan, Storm, Jean, and Scott stared at the sight in front of them. There was an enormous amount of power coming from this guy, and he knew what he wanted from them.

"Anytime you are ready, X-Men, I am waiting." Michael said with a smile.


Yusuke and William reached a clearing, and saw David lying on the ground, all three of his eyes pinched shut. The two of them approached the sleeping demon cautiously, and just stared at his sleeping figure.

"Well, isn't this a bitch? We run after him, worry that he is going to kill someone, and here he is, sleeping in the middle of a field, all calm and quiet. Really now." Yusuke complained. William looked around, and scooped up their friend in his arms.

"What are you going to do now?" Yusuke asked.

"While the X-Men are busy with Michael, we are going to take him back to the institute and drop him there." William stated.

"Great, while Michael is fighting, we are babysitting. Just awesome." Yusuke whined. William, fed up with his friend's complaining, punched the spirit detective in the head, causing him to fall on the ground.

"Fucking great, now I have to wait until he regains consciousness too. Awesome." William complained.


"Alright, just who are you supposed to be?" Logan demanded to know.

"Yeah, care to explain why were you at the Xavier Institute earlier?" Scott asked.

"I think that you four are sadly mistaken. I am here not out of war, but here on a mission of peace. But if you honestly think that you can stop me or take me out, you are more than welcome to try." Michael said full of confidence.

Logan ran at him, claws drawn. He jumped in the air, and threw his fist right at the kid, but all he caught was concrete.

"Where did he go?" Logan asked.

"Behind you." Michael said with a smile. Logan turned around, and Michael sent a gust of wind at him, knocking him back a few feet.

Scoot readied his lasers and fired it at Michael, who deflected it with his hand. Michael flew into the air, and soon found himself surrounded by Storm and Jean. Storm shot out a lightning bolt directly at him, and noticing that Jean was right behind him, Michael teleported out of view, and let the bolt of lightning hit her squarely.

"Jean!" Storm screamed. She began to fall towards the ground, but Michael caught her before she hit the concrete. With careful grace and care, Michael laid her down on the sidewalk as to not further injure her, just as he got a telepathic message from William.

Michael, it's me William.

Great. Did you find David.

Me and Yusuke brought him back to the institute, and put him back into bed. Are you finished there?

Just about. I'll meet you back at the spot.

See you then.

Michael stood in the middle of the street, and smiled.

"Well, it has been fun having a little spar with you guys but I really must be going." Michael said with a big smile on his face.

"Later." Michael said. With those last words, Michael disappeared from the spot that he was standing on.

The X-Men were left standing there, wondering what in the hell just happened...


AN: Well, in the next chapter, Xavier tries to confront David again about what just happened, and Rogue accidently steals David's powers, just as Sonzin's Armored Squadron attacks again. R&R!
