Finding Family - Part 1 ~ Chapter 12

Tamara: I'm very glad you enjoyed my last chapter, I cant deny I was a bit apprehensive about how well the codenames would be received. that said I'm very glad you enjoyed it.

SLYNNR: thank you for your kind words, unfortunately she'll be making an appearance later on (clue: with a certain inhumans village.) hope you can wait till then.

Darxetta: I'm immensely grateful that you chose my story to be your first review, it means a lot thank you. As to Ward, he'll have a bit part, my plan is for him to have a far bigger part in the third story in my little trilogy.

On a related note I intend for my third story to be a crossover between X-Men : The Last Stand and elements of Captain America: Civil War, because of this there could be a wait between this one and the third story.

I DONT OWN THIS STUFF.


At exactly ten the X-Jet lifted off from the hangar to fall in beside the Avenger's quinjet. After a quick telepathic conversation between Jean and one of the Avengers the two planes where on the same radio frequency.
"Glad to see you've joined us," said Tony over the radio.
"We'll follow you in, you probably know the way better than we do."
Another voice broke in over the coms, "where's the Aston Martin, I thought you'd have brought it."
Leo's face clearly said, 'I told you so.'
"There was no point bringing it, we didn't need the room and its currently being put in for upgrade."
"How exactly can you upgrade a flying car?" Complained Tony, in the background Thor could be heard saying, "how can a car fly?" Then Steve saying, "it beats me."
"When we land, what is the plan?" Interrupted Ororo, getting into business mode.
Here Steve activated his comm to outline their plan of attack.
"We're going to hit them hard and fast, see if we can overwhelm their defences and take the base with minimum casualties."
"And when the mutants attack," questioned Jean.
"Then we'll split up your team can take them on and we'll keep going to the sceptre."
"I'm assuming we can count on you for back-up should we need it."
"You're already asking for help," mocked Tony.
Annoyed by Tony's tactlessness, Bruce stepped in, "there's no need for that Tony, we have code green if you need it." This shut Tony up, he knew how much Bruce hated the 'Other Guy.'
"Yes you can count on us," said Natasha. "We could do with knowing your powers so we can recognise them should you need help."
Ororo started by saying, "Kitty can you and Skye patch through a camera, that way they can put a face to the name."
Seconds later an image showing the interior of the Avengers jet appeared on Kitty's tablet.
"Hey wait a second you shouldn't be able to do that," objected Tony.
"Surely your programming is better than that," grinned Leo evilly.
"What's your name and can I buy you a drink?" Said Tony with what he thought was a winning smirk, at the camera.
"Sorry but I'm spoken for," said Kitty holding Leo's hand fondly.
"Awww," whined Tony. He was stopped from making any further comments by Natasha stepping forwards.
"Before someone interrupted us you were going to explain your gifts to us."
"Yes well," Ororo stepped forwards towards the camera, "I can manipulate the weather, codename Storm." She then created a flurry of snow in a flourish of her hand.
Jean telekinetically lifted the tablet into her hand saying, "I'm a telepath and have telekinesis, my codename is Marvel."
Next was Kitty's turn so she chose to phase through Leo to demonstrate her gift, "I can pass through solid objects, I'm Shadowcat."
Skye nervously stood, "you've all seen part of my powers, I can control seismic waves. I'm Quake."
Leo rose from where he'd been leaning against the wall next to Kitty's seat.
"I have superspeed, that's about it," he said nervously, "oh and, I'm called Quicksilver."
The Avengers barely had time to make sense of their allies amazing abilities before there was a bing from the autopilot, "sir we are reaching the HYDRA airspace once inside they'll be alerted to our presence."
"Thanks JARVIS," said Clint returning to the pilots seat.
"We should engage the cloaking," said Leo over Ororo's shoulder as she too retook her pilot role.
"There's no point. We're going for shock and awe, hoping to scare the mutants out of their hiding places."
"Right," Leo then walked back to his seat.
"Brace yourselves, we're coming in under heavy fire."
On landing they were thrust into the battle from the off.


By now I'm sure you all know that Leo is my version of Quicksilver, for this reason he obviously wont be one of the mutants experimented on by HYDRA. Scarlet Witch won't be either so its now a challenge for you to think who you'd like to be the evil/misguided mutants of this tale, (clue: there's three). Please give a reason for your choices.
