Bobby nervously pulled at the straps of his bag, looking at the others for the journey ahead. He'd never been out of Wehles before and the idea of going to Nifelleim to find some person who supposedly would be helping them in the fight against religious zealots was a bit out there. He glanced back towards the Institute and wondered how Hank was going to do when he leaves for the journey.

He had been surprised when Remy approached him and asked him to join him and a few others to Nifelleim. He knew he worked well with Monet and Rahne, and got along quite well with Jamie. He also looked up to Remy who had a wicked sense of humor when it came to everything. They bantered with each before and Bobby was pleased that Remy actually understood references that no one else seemed to know.

Well, except for Jamie and Hank, but least they were in the same age group as himself. Oh, and Jay, but only because Bobby, Jamie and Hank were corrupting him. Paige wasn't very pleased to say the least.

The priestess Storm was another matter. He wasn't sure who she was and why she was coming. Sure, she saved them in the nick of time when those crazy people invaded the Institute, and sure, she was the priestess of the Storm Goddess temple and anybody who worships the Storm Goddess are definitely okay in Bobby's book, but what he really wanted to know was if he would be able to work with her in battle.

And to find out if she was single, but Bobby was pretty sure that there was something going on between her and Remy. Plus going to Nifelleim might give him a chance to see Northstar again.

Still Bobby just quickly packed some stuff - Rogue advised him on lots of warm clothes because "Momma said Nifelleim makes your icy self seem warm in comparison" but Bobby was pretty sure he could take it - and went to bed early because he knew that he wouldn't be able to get to sleep for a while. Morning found him sitting in the kitchen with Jamie and Rahne, all already dressed, all drinking coffee and quietly talking to one another excitedly. Monet arrived an hour later and gave them all a sleepy amused look.

They met up with Remy and Storm at the gates of the Institute, both of them already ready to set out. Erik, Emma, Alex and Scott were also there, the latter two talking quietly with their older brother.

"Professor Maximoff?" Bobby asked, looking at the older man. "Have you ever been to Nifelleim and do you know what to expect from there? I couldn't seem to get any good answers out of Logan and Ms. Darkholme except 'get ready to kick lots of ass' and lots of cursing of the cold." Emma gave Bobby an amused look with Erik chuckled.

"That sounds like them," Erik replied. "Well, it's not as cold as you'd think it is, for one. For example, the closer you get to the middle of Nifelleim, the warmer it gets because that area is filled with hot springs."

"Hot springs?" Storm and Monet chorused, brightening.

"Note to self: tell Remy to avoid hot springs," Jamie muttered under his breath, "or we'll never see those two again."

"Hear, hear," Rahne agreed. Emma's amused look was bordering onto a smile while Erik just chuckled again.

"Are we ready to head out?" Remy called out. Bobby and the others all looked up at the thief at the gates and nodded in response. Remy grinned. "Alright, let's go then!"

"You better come back, Remy!" Alex called out as Bobby and the others followed after Remy. Remy just gave a wave of his hand without looking back.


Neyaeil was still as busy as ever and Remy thought about visiting Curt's clinic before deciding against it. Rahne, Jamie and Bobby were looking around the city, looking rather awestruck, while Ororo and Monet just calmly followed after Remy. Remy glanced back at the three and grinned at them.

"Keep an eye on your belongings," Remy said, "especially your purses. Neyaeil's full of thieves, you know."

"Right," the three chorused. Remy couldn't help but laugh quietly to himself as he looked forward again. They were heading to port to get on a boat hopefully headed towards Nifelleim. While most people would rather avoid Nifelleim, the country made lots of money from their hot springs, and no sane businessman would say no to a profit.

Remy frowned as they approached the docks, seeing more guards at the dock than usual. He slowed his steps as he warily looked around, looking for some sign as to why they were there or what had happened.

"Remy? Is something wrong?" Jamie asked as he looked at him.

"Too many guards," he replied, nodding towards the watch. "Something's happened. Hold on." Remy made his way over to a lone guard, glancing back quickly to make sure none of the others followed.

"Hello, friend," he called out to the man. The guard looked up at him and Remy mentally smiled at the sight of the young man. "I just got into town to catch a boat to Trakia. Is it always this busy with the watch?"

"Oh, no," the guard replied, shaking his head. "These past few days, there's been murder here at the docks. Lord Fisk has the place shut down until we catch the killer."

"So there's no chance I'd be getting on a boat to Trakia anytime soon, huh?" Remy said, giving the young guard a dejected look.

"Sorry," the guard apologized. "There's nothing I can do."

"Well, who do you think is the one doing this?" Remy asked. The young guard looked around before leaning towards Remy.

"A few of the dockhands have said that it's demons," the guard said quietly. "The bodies were said to be ripped apart and no human can do that. Some of the senior officers looked pretty green when they came back form seeing the bodies."

"Ripped apart?" Remy asked, eyes wide. "By the Storm Goddess, that must be the doing a demon!"

"We think so too," the guard said, nodding in response. "Although Captain Rogan thinks that it was a sorcerer, but we all think he just don't like them."

"I see," Remy replied. It's a good thing Logan isn't around then.

"I'm Private Peter Parker," the young guard said, holding a hand out.

"Robert Lord," Remy replied, using one of his aliases, as he shook the private's hand. "You don't mind telling us when the port's open?"

"You'll be the first to know," Peter replied with a grin. Remy grinned in response and walked away. His smile disappeared as he approached the others.

"We've got a problem," he announced quietly. "The port's been shut down."

"What? Why?" Jamie asked in dismay.

"Murder," Remy replied. "Come on, let's get to an inn and figure this thing out."

--------------------

"That is most disturbing," Ororo said, shuddering slightly from the news. "How could someone go around and kill those dockhands?"

"I don't know," Remy said, shaking his head. "And frankly, we're stuck here until the watch finds the killer."

The group was sitting in the main room, having just finished dinner. Jamie, Bobby and Rahne were having dessert while Monet, Storm and Remy sat there drinking, the first two sipping at juice while Remy chose to go with ale. Jamie sat up, the fork still in his mouth, with a thoughtful look on his face. Monet and Rahne both looked at him, and instantly both had a wary expression on their face. Bobby also looked up at Jamie, stopped chewing and slowly put his fork down as he began to look around the room.

"Bobby?" Remy asked, raising an eyebrow.

"I'm looking for the exits," Bobby replied after he swallowed his bite. "Jamie has the Look. The Look is bad. Just ask Rahne and Monet." Remy and Ororo exchanged looks of confusion while Jamie gave them all a hurt look.

"What?" Jamie asked. "I can have an idea, right?"

"Yah ideas tend tah deal wit' chargin' headfirst in tah the gaping maw offa demon," Rahne replied. Monet nodded in agreement.

"Even I find your ideas scary, and I'm the one who dyed Scott and Alex's hair pink!" Bobby added.

"You what?" Remy asked, eyes wide and smile on his lips. "Damn it, Bobby, you're going to need to tell me everything about your pranks on my brothers!"

"Um, I'd assumed you'd kick my ass for it?" Bobby replied uncertainly.

"Demons, no! I haven't been able to prank my brothers in ten years! I missed doing that stuff to them!" Remy said. Bobby grinned in response.

"About that idea of mine," Jamie started. Bobby, Monet and Rahne instantly glared at Jamie who held up his hands in defense. "Come on! Think about it! We need to get on a boat, but some psycho killer is out there, stopping us from doing that. All we have to do is find said psycho killer, bring him in and go on our merry way!"

"I must agree with Jamie," Ororo replied. "We do need to get to Nifelleim as soon as we can, and this situation is only going to delay our departure."

"I'll see if I can find Spider-man tonight," Remy said quietly. "Maybe he has some idea as to what's going on."


It was a few days after the attack on the Institute that Raven suddenly realized where she had seen Remy. She paused in lifting her mug to her lips, eyes distant as she went through the memory before she thinned her lips and put down the mug.

"Momma?" Rogue asked, her voice concerned.

"It's okay," Raven said with a smile. "I just remembered something that I need to tell Xavier and Erik." She got up from her seat and left the kitchen, feeling the worried looks exchanged between Rogue and Kurt.

It only occurred to her that she had seen Remy in Nifelleim when both she and Logan were meeting up with their informant, a sorcerer by the name of Quicksilver, a year ago. What he was doing there was unknown, but one thing did stand out from the memory.

He was talking to two people who were known bodyguards of the Speaker. One of the bodyguards was with the people who attacked the Institute.

Raven stopped in front of Xavier's study and knocked.

"Come in, Raven," he called out and she opened the door. Erik, Xavier and Emma were all present, as well as Sean. Xavier was at his desk, Erik hovering behind him while both Emma and Sean were seated before the desk. "What can I do for you, Raven?"

"Remy was with them in the past," she spoke the moment she closed the door. "Remy was working with the Speaker."

"Are you sure?" Erik asked, a frown on his face.

"I'm sure," Raven replied with a nod. She crossed her arms and leaned back against the door. "He was talking to one of the men who attacked the Institute when Logan and I were meeting with our informant."

"Then he be goin' tah Nifelleim tah talk t' the Speaker," Sean said, straightening in his seat. "I'll send some men tah Neyaeil immediately and--"

"No, he won't," Emma interrupted. "Remy has no loyalty to the Speaker."

"How can ye be sure, Emma?" Sean asked. "He could have come here lookin' for information, usin' his brothers as a cover."

"He will never do anything that'd bring harm to his brothers," Emma replied in a bored tone. "It's not in his nature."

"Emma--"

"Sean, I can read almost everybody's mind here on Gaia and I could read Remy's," Emma said. "Remy will only work with people if the price is right and that's the only explanation as to why he was in Nifelleim. He wouldn't do anything that would draw attention to his brothers."

"How can you trust him, Emma?" Raven asked. "Mind readers such as yourself can be fooled. How can you trust a man who sells his skills to anyone?"

"It's called faith," Xavier said softly. "And we must have that in the coming times."

"Charles?" Sean asked, a frown on his face. Xavier said nothing.

"Besides," Emma said, "Remy has something the Speaker wants. Whatever it is, he would have given it up to her before the attack." She frowned, crossing her arms.

"From what I could get from those men, they were looking for a key," Emma said. "I wonder what this key is."


Getting Spider-Man's attention was quite easy. All one has to do was steal some stuff and make a loud explosion, and sooner or later the man would arrive. Remy decided to skip the stealing and go straight with the loud explosion, jumping from rooftop to rooftop as he tossed a few charged cards onto the ground. Spider-Man eventually arrived and Remy was sure the man was scowling at him from beneath the mask.

"Gambit! What the hell do you think you're doing?" he demanded. "You could have hurt someone!"

"But I didn't," Remy drawled. "Besides it's the only way I knew how to get your attention." Spider-Man huffed and sat on the wall while Remy sat down.

"What do you want?" Spider-Man asked.

"What's going on with the docks?" Remy asked. "I only got a little information from one of the guards."

"Then you know just as much as I do," the other replied. He rubbed the back of his neck as he gestured with his free hand his puzzlement. "I've got the sinking feeling though that it's a demon."

"How do you know?" Remy asked. "It could be some crazed human or sorcerer. We do have the weapons to rip up a body nowadays." Spider-Man looked down and Remy could feel the uncertainty coming from him. He mentally frowned, wondering how he could feel people's emotions so well now, then wondered if it had anything to do with the god sleeping within him.

"I know a few demons," Spider-Man admitted hesitantly. "I've fought them here in the city before, but I know them. They wouldn't rip apart people because they use to be people, but the bodies... The killer has the same strength as the demons I know, so I'm sure we're looking for one." The sincerity of those words convinced Remy, and he nodded in response.

"We need to get a boat to Nifelleim," he said. "And the only way that's happening is to get that killer."

"I'm headed for the docks right now," Spider-Man replied. "I'm going to nose around a bit and try to find where the demon is. He likes the west end, but where he kills is pretty random so..."

"I'm got some sorcerers with me," Remy said. "We can come with you and--"

"No." Remy blinked, slightly taken aback by the forceful answer. Spider-Man got off the wall and stood before Remy. "I won't have anybody getting hurt on my watch."

"They can handle it," Remy retorted. "They've been trained to fight and you know you're going to need help. Daredevil usually only hangs around Fyrchian and the Black Cat likes to steal stuff more than fight the supernatural."

"Yes, but--"

"Trust me," Remy interrupted. "They can do it."

"If you're sure," Spider-Man replied after a moment, still sounding a bit hesitant. "Meet me at the eastern docks tomorrow night. They're pretty lax over there." Remy nodded in response and watched as Spider-Man raised an arm to shoot out a web and swung away.

--------------------

"We're going to be look for a demon with Spider-Man?" Jamie asked in surprised the next morning during breakfast. Rahne and Bobby also looked surprised by Remy's announcement while Monet and Ororo just looked at Remy curiously. "How neat is that?"

"What part? Demon-huntin' or Spider-Man?" Rahne asked, giving Jamie an incredulous look. "Either way, we be facin' a demon!"

"But it's Spider-Man!" Bobby and Jamie said, looking at Rahne. "It's the guy whom all villains fear! It's the guy who brought down crazy humans and sorcerers alike! It's the guy who battled against demons and lived through every encounter!" They actually looked really excited at the prospect of working alongside the vigilante.

"Just how many demons do you guys think he went up against?" Remy muttered under his breath. "I only remember one, and that guy was possessed to begin with."

"Boys," Monet said with a sigh. Ororo nodded in response, and the two smiled innocently to Jamie and Bobby when they turned to glare at them. Remy just gave them an amused look.

"With that said," Remy started, getting up from his seat, "I think I'll go visit some old friends. Would you like to join me, Stormy?"

"Don't call me that," Ororo said automatically as she got up from her seat. "Who are these old friends of yours?" Remy smiled at her as he saw the others exchanged knowing looks before they also got up and left the room.

"Come with me and you'll see," he replied. Ororo gave him a curious look before she followed him out of the room. He led her down the streets of Neyaeil until they reached a small building. Above the door hung a sign of a small medicine bottle and a curved staff. Remy watched as Ororo took in the sight, frown before looking at him.

"Why are we in front of a clinic?" Ororo asked, crossing her arms.

"My old friends own and work here," Remy replied with a smile. "Come on, I'll introduce you to them."

"And here I thought your old friend would be thieves," Ororo said, following him into the clinic. Remy glanced back with an amused look.

"Thieves do have friends outside of the circle," he replied.

"You mean thieves have doctors as friends to patch them up when a job goes wrong," Ororo said archly. Remy snorted.

"Those are amateurs," Remy said. He paused as he glanced around the waiting room, seeing people in ratty-looking clothing waiting to be seen by the doctors, some looking pale and others looking injured. He could feel Ororo's surprise and sympathy as he walked up to the door and knocked.

"I'm with a patient!" came the answer. "Wait your turn!"

"And your temper is still horrible, Octavius!" Remy replied. There was silence before the door opened. Remy stepped in, Ororo following after hesitantly into the room. Octavius was sitting in the room, dressed in white and, along with his patient, blinking owlishly at them. Remy heard Ororo gasp quietly behind him and knew why she reacted that way.

Four metal arms coming out of a person's back was pretty alarming, after all.

"Robert Lord, is that you?" Octavius asked, adjusting his spectacles.

"The one and only," Remy replied with a grin. "You didn't think I'd leave you all by yourself against Martha, did you?"

"I survived for ten years against her," the doctor retorted. "You being gone hasn't really affected me that much." The patient snickered and Remy chuckled while Octavius gave them all a dirty look.

"Where's Curt?" Remy asked. Octavius gave Remy frown, the usual expression the man wore, but this time Remy could feel the worry radiating off of him. "Has something happened? Are Martha and Billy alright?"

"Would you excuse me?" Octavius asked the patient. The man nodded and Octavius stood up from his seat, looking at Remy and Ororo. "Come with me." He left the room and Remy and Ororo quickly followed him to the back where the Conners resided. He knocked on the door.

"Billy? It's Ock," the doctor called out. "Uncle Robert's here." Someone ran to the door and opened it, revealing a young boy. He instantly went for Remy, throwing his arms out and hugging him at his waist, burying his face into Remy's shirt and bawling. Remy gave him a startled look before placing a hand onto Billy's shoulder and squeezing it gently.

"What's happened?" Remy asked softly over Billy's sobbing.

"Curt disappeared," Martha replied as she appeared. "He's been gone for almost two weeks, and now there's talk about a demon stalking the docks? What if that demon's taken my Curt?" Remy could feel the terror radiating off of Martha and without thinking, he pulled her into a hug with his free arm.

"Me and Stormy will go look for him," Remy said soothingly. "I'll even get Spider-Man to come and help look for him. Don't you worry, okay?"

"Okay," Billy replied with a sniffle. "You promise, Uncle Robert?"

"I promise," Remy said solemnly.


They met Spider-Man that night at the east docks, slipping by the guards easily. Bobby watched as Remy shook his head at the guards and muttering under his breath something about how Spider-Man was right about the guards. Bobby personally was nervous, not sure what to expect in the hunt for the demon. He glanced over at the others, seeing Jamie looking around nervously while Rahne, who was now in her were form, sniffing the air. Monet and Storm stood side by side behind Remy, a wary look on their face as they also looked around.

"Hey." Bobby looked up at the voice to see Spider-Man hanging upside-down from a pole and looking down at them. He couldn't help but stare in wonderment as Spider-Man jumped down and landed silently before them.

"Spidey," Remy greeted.

"So these are your friends, eh?" Spider-Man asked, looking at the others. "Well, at least we'll have extra eyes on finding this demon."

"Aye, I hope we find it soon," Rahne replied, a growl in her voice. "This place be kind of spooky at night."

"I second that," Jamie muttered. Bobby nodded in agreement as he glanced around.

"The demon doesn't come up to the east end for some reason," Spider-Man said, "All the same, be on your guard. We'll go in pairs and search through the west end. The demon's got to be in one of the warehouse."

"Um...," Jamie started. "There are seven of us."

"I'll go alone," Spider-Man replied with a shrug. "I'm not much of a team-player to begin with."

"If you're sure..."

"Storm, you're with Bobby," Remy said. "Rahne and Monet, you're together, so that just leaves you with me, Jamie." The others nodded in response.

"Be careful," Spider-Man said and then he was swinging through the air. Bobby followed after Storm to one of the warehouse, glancing back at the others. Monet and Rahne were headed for the second warehouse while Remy and Jamie went towards the third. Bobby couldn't help but notice Remy looking over at Storm, a worried expression on his face before he and Jamie disappeared into the darkness.

"Miss Storm?" Bobby called out quietly as he and the priestess began to search through the warehouse. "Why are you coming to Nifelleim with us?" Storm glanced back at him, a thoughtful look on her face, before she turned away. Bobby followed after her, cautiously glancing about for the demon.

"I'm looking for someone," she replied. "I was told to search for two people, both who will be shown to me in Nifelleim."

"Why are you looking for them?" Bobby asked. "Will they be helping us like whoever Remy is looking for?"

"I believe so," Storm said. She looked behind some crates before continuing on. Bobby glanced under a tarp, seeing nothing unusual before he moved on. "I wonder what kind of a demon we're looking for."

"What, you mean there's more than one kind?"

"Of course," Storm replied, looking back at Bobby. "Not all demons kill. Some demons are scavengers, some are guardians and some even do miracles. Those last ones though always do miracles for a price."

"How do you know so much about them?" Bobby asked, feeling awed by her knowledge. Storm looked away.

"I... I once knew someone with... extensive knowledge on demons," she said softly. There was pain in her voice and Bobby paused in his search to look up at her. He wanted to ask her more about the person, but Bobby knew that prodding any more wouldn't be nice. He silently went back to searching for the demon.

--------------------

"We got nothing," the Jamies said as they met back up with Remy at the entrance. Remy nodded, watching as the original Jamie absorbed them all before they both left the warehouse. Monet and Rahne met up with them empty-handed as well before Ororo and Bobby arrived.

"You didn't find anything?" Remy asked.

"No," Ororo replied then glanced up. Remy followed her gaze to see Spider-Man coming towards them through the air before landing on the side of the building Remy had been in. Jamie, Rahne and Bobby all looked awed at the feat while Monet just sniffed in disdain. Spider-Man looked at them before landing down in front of Remy.

"Didn't find anything?" he asked. Remy shook his head in response and Spider-Man sighed. "Well there's one more warehouse left, and knowing my luck, the demon's there."

"Lady Luck loves to do that to us," Remy replied, giving Spider-Man a resigned look. Spider-Man just sighed against before he took off into the air, swinging towards the last warehouse. Remy walked towards it, pulling out his staff and tapping it against his shoulder. He noticed Bobby giving it curious look.

"Remy? Isn't that kind of short to whack people with?" he asked.

"Right now, it is," Remy replied easily. "Don't worry about me, I'll be fine." Bobby just shrugged and Remy looked towards the warehouse again. The last warehouse made him feel anxious for some reason, and Remy couldn't help but wonder if the anxiety was due to his gut feeling or that the Dark God inside his head knew something. As it was, Remy stopped fiddling around with his short staff and dropped his hand, lengthening the staff in the process. He ignored Bobby and Jamie's surprised noise as they finally approached the building, meeting Spider-Man in front of the door.

"It stinks," Ororo said, her face serious. "The demon is here."

"Why is it always the last place we look?" Spider-Man muttered as he opened the door. "Is it some sort of cruel joke by the gods to mess with people?" Ororo looked vaguely amused by Spider-Man's mutterings as they all entered the building.

The warehouse was like the other warehouses they had searched, and they all split up once again to search through it. Remy glanced back at Jamie to see if he was alright, noticing Jamie giving the place a wary look.

"This place is creepier," Jamie whispered. "It feels like something's watching us."

That's because it's here, Remy thought to himself as he nodded. He looked forward again when something above caught his eye. He stopped, jerking his head up to look for the movement.

"Remy?" Jamie whispered.

"It's above," Remy said quietly. "I can see it."

"What?" Jamie looked up as well, squinting into the darkness. "I don't see anything. You sure you're not seeing things?"

"I'm sure," Remy replied. He could just see it, a huge creature with a tail. It was crouched on one of the beams, staring down at them, and Remy could see cold, yellow eyes peering down at them. It began to move and Remy quickly turned to follow, barely hearing Jamie's surprised whisper of "Hey!" and moving to follow after him. The creature was moving fast and Remy growled a curse under his breath.

"Remy?" Remy looked forward to see Ororo in a wary stance, Bobby right behind her. "What is--?"

The demon suddenly landed in between Ororo and Remy with a thunderous roar. Remy and Ororo jerked back in surprise before the demon turned and slammed its tail into Bobby. He was thrown back, smashing into some crates before stopping. Ororo was instantly into the air, throwing bolts of lightning at it, while Remy yanked out three cards, charging them up and threw them as well, listening to the demon shriek in pain as both the cards and lightning connected.

Rahne was suddenly there with a howl, jumping on the demon and slashing at it with her claws. The demon shrieked again and reached back to claw Rahne off. Blood was spilling onto the ground and Remy couldn't do anything but stand back, fearing that if he was to throw his cards again, it would hit Rahne. It took Remy a moment to realize that the demon looked rather lizard-like and was wearing clothes. Confusion slipped in to mix with the anxiety he felt as he watched Rahne continue to claw and slash at the lizard.

"Rahne! Get off of it!" Monet yelled, but Rahne just ignored her, slashing at the demon's face. The demon roared and grabbed Rahne's by her head, yanking her off and throwing her. She slammed into other crates before she weakly got up. Two Jamies were by her side instantly as Bobby, who managed to get up again and in ice-form now, sent shards of ice at the demon. Ororo sent another bolt of lightning at it, but the demon was able to avoid it. With a sudden burst of speed, it charged right at Ororo and slammed into her. Remy froze at the sight, watching--

--as Phoenix threw her back with just a flick of her wrist. Ororo fell onto the ground with a grunt before she got up again, anger on her face. He shouted in rage at Phoenix and charged towards her, his scythe in hand.

"Death! No!" Magnus shouted before Death was also thrown away by some invisible power. Phoenix just laughed, a coldly joyous laugh as she watched them.

"You will not win, Phoenix!" Ororo said, her voice rough. "I will not allow you to win!" Death got up, his scythe ready as well as Magnus with his swords. Ororo suddenly charged again, her spear poised to stab Phoenix and, in an instant, Death knew that she would succeed in defeating Phoenix at the cost of her life.

"No," Death whispered and--

--cards were thrown as Remy charged towards the demon. Anger burned through him and for a moment, Remy wondered if it was himself that was angry or the Dark God for the harm that came to Ororo. The cards exploded, sending the lizard stumbling back and giving Remy the opportunity to slam his staff hard into its side.

Out of curiosity, if I was to start up a new fic that features crossovers of video games, anime and X-Men, would anyone read it?
