Brotherhood Evolution: Those Made of Rock can Bleed
Ahhh, after some humor I'm in the mood for some character Torture. And since I've already tortured Pietro, Toad, and Wanda, lets go with some Lance Angst. That's always good. This chapter came from one of my sit down sessions with my friends and we we're just tossing ideas around. This may seem like a departure, but this is what we envisioned Lance's past to be like. And hey, whatever fills the gap between the show.
********************
The Brotherhood of Bayville Boarding House
"So what do you guys wanna do today?" Lance asked as the Brotherhood lounged around the Boarding House.
"Mail call." Pietro said as he handed a letter to Lance and one to Mike.
"Mr. Nagrite, you have just won ten million dollars." Mike quoted. "Heh. I don't think so." Mike muttered as he tossed the letter into the garbage. Meanwhile Lance was reading his. His face became white as he read it.
"What's wrong dude?" Blob asked as the Brotherhood gathered around the Rock Tumbler.
"Nothing." Lance said simply as he ran into his room and slammed the door.
"Okay. Who's going up there to find out what happened?" Pietro asked as the Brotherhood all smiled and looked at him. "I hate you all…" Pietro said as he ran upstairs. "Lance?" Pietro said as he knocked on the door. "You in here?" Pietro said as he opened the door. He saw Lance standing over his bureau, his head hanging.
"What do you want Pietro?" Lance said, his voice stone cold.
"I'm the leader, I'll ask the questions here." Pietro said arrogantly as Lance whirled around and the ground around Pietro rose up and slammed him into the wall. Lance's eyes were dead white as he faced Pietro.
"What. Do. You. Want?" Lance asked as the ground shook.
"Whoa." Lance turned to see the Brotherhood standing at his door way. "Cool it man." Toad said as he hopped over with Wanda and tried to pry Pietro free as Betsy and Mike got in front of them. Blob stayed at the door and kept an eye on Lance.
"What wrong man?" Mike asked as Lance's eyes turned normal again.
"Nothing…" Lance said as he turned away. "Nothing… Urg…" Lance muttered as he stopped dead in his tracks. Purple energy surrounded his head as his eyes went white. Betsy's head also emitted purple energy as she concentrated.
"Sorry Lance, but something's wrong. And if you're not going to tell us, then I'm going to pull it from you." Betsy said as she scanned Lance's mind to find out what was wrong with him. "Jesus." Betsy to said herself as she looked at his past. She then searched for what the letter Lance had, had said. "Here we go." Betsy said as she read the letter in Lance's mind.
"What does it say Bets?" Mike asked as he put a hand on his girlfriends shoulder.
"It appears that Lance has received a letter from one of his old running buddies from Northwood. They need his help." Betsy said as she released Lance from her powers.
"Dammit Psylocke, you had no right to do that…" Lance muttered as he shook the cobwebs loose.
"So when are we leaving?" Toad asked.
"What are you talking about?" Pietro asked as he rubbed his sore arms.
"Look, Its obvious that Lance ain't gonna go back there by himself, given his history with the place, so its only obvious that we go and help provide moral support as Lance closes that particular chapter in his life." Toad said simply as the Brotherhood all stared at the little frog boy.
"Holy god…" Wanda muttered. "He made sense. He actually made sense."
"Thanks babe." Toad said as he put his arm around Wanda's shoulder.
"So I guess you guys wanna go?" Lance asked as Toad was sent flying across the room.
"Of course." Mike said with a smile as he leaned on the wall.
"You know what that means though?" Betsy said with a smile.
"ROAD TRIP!!!" Blob shouted as he raised a hand in the air.
"We'll need proper transportation." Pietro said as Mike and Betsy shared a smile.
"You let us worry about that." Betsy said as she and Mike took off in his el Camino, as the others got ready to pack.
"This is gonna be fun." Lance said dryly as he slammed his door and looked at a picture that was stuck in the mirror. It was a younger version of him with a couple of ragtag kids from the neighborhood. "Real fun…"
********************
The next day…
"Where are Omega and Psylocke?" Pietro asked as he paced around. "They've been gone all night long!"
"Probably doing the you-know-what." Toad said as he swiveled his hips.
"That's disgusting…" Blob muttered as a giant buss rolled up towards the Brotherhood house. Pictures of Wayne Newton were posted on the bus as well as in giant wording.
"They got Wayne Newton's tour bus…" Pietro said in disbelief as Mike waved from the driver's window. The doors opened up as the Brotherhood scrapped their jaws from the ground and piled aboard.
"How?" Wanda asked as she got on the bus and saw Betsy reading a magazine.
"We beat him in a poker game." Mike said simply as he closed the doors and the Brotherhood took off. IN WAYNE NEWTONS FRIGGIN' TOUR BUS!
"This is surreal…" Toad muttered as Mike threw on some hard rock and the Brotherhood drove towards Northwood.
********************
Northbrook
"We're here." Lance said as he stepped off the bus and took a deep breath.
"So this is home sweet home for you." Wanda said as she walked around and stretched out.
"Interesting neighborhood." Blob said as they looked around. The place looked like it was a demilitarized zone. Sirens were heard in the background.
"Stash the bus Betsy." Pietro said as Betsy grabbed the bus and then Shadow melded into the ground. She reappeared a few seconds later.
"Done." She said as Lance nodded and then walked off.
"I think we should follow him." Blob said as the Brotherhood took off after Lance.
"Don't bother guys." Betsy said as the Brotherhood stared at her. "This is something Lance needs to do on his own, we just came along for the trip." Betsy said with a smile as Lance walked off into the distance.
"So… What do you want to do?" Toad asked.
"McDonalds?" Mike asked.
"Sounds good." Pietro said as the Brotherhood took of to find the nearest McDonalds.
********************
Lance's old Hangout
"This sucks!" Chaz shouted as he slammed his fist on the table. His buddies Rat and Ronny stared at him as he paced back and forth. "These friggin Chinks think they can move in on our turf and sell their stuff, than they've got another thing coming to them."
"Really." Rat said a he looked at Chaz. "Face it man, we don't got the man power anymore to back up our sales. Ever since Lance split and Marco got iced we've been in a losing battle."
"We wont be for long. I sent a letter to Lance. Once he hears that we're in trouble, he'll come running." Ronny said.
"What makes you think that freak will come and help us? He did ditch us after he couldn't get that Pryde bitch to get the test answers and ended up destroying the school."
"I don't know. I guess a guy does crazy things at times…" They all turned to see Lance standing at the doorway.
"Holy shit…" Chaz said. "If it isn't Mr. Leader himself."
"What's the problem Chaz?" Lance asked dryly. "I didn't come all this way for nothing."
"Those East-Side Dragons have moved in on our sales, man. We need you to send'em a message." Chaz said simply.
"I got out of the business a long time ago." Lance said. "I'm not gonna do anything for you guys anymore. You wanna keep selling, than you can do it by yourself." Lance said as he turned to leave.
"The Dragons killed Marco, man." Rat said. "Gunned him down with his girl."
"What." Lance said as he turned around. His face was like stone as he stared at his former gang.
"He got out, just like you. But they decided to send a message to the three of us. They sent us his freaking hands man." Ronny said as he spat on the floor.
"Where are they?" Lance asked as his face grew dark and his eyes turned white.
"Back in business." Rat said with a smile.
"Break out the heat." Chaz said as Lance looked at his former gang and scowled.
"One more time. This ones for you Marco…" Lance said. "And guys, I have just the back up we need." Lance said in anger. (A/N: From the old Freedom Force comics I was able to find out that Marco Sanchez was Lance's old best friend.)
********************
McDonalds
"Let me get this strait." Mike said as Lance and his gang stood in front of the Brotherhood. "You want us to beat the crap out of another gang in order to get vengeance for your old friend who was killed by said gang. And you want us to do it in the middle of a firefight created by these Mook's." Mike said as he pointed at Chaz.
"Watch it you mother…" Chaz started before Lance stopped him.
"Chaz, he's way out of your league. I've seen him destroy the military without breaking a sweat." Lance said as Mike smiled and Chaz went white. "So are you guys in?"
"It'd be good training to take on the X-Geeks…" Pietro mused. "Destroy humans, send a message of mutant power… I think father will be Okay with it." Pietro said as Wanda nodded in agreement.
"We get to break up gang activity." Betsy said.
"Sigh… Lets go do this thing." Blob said as the Brotherhood got up with Chaz's gang and walked out to take care of business.
We are so going to rock them…" Toad said simply.
"Bad Rock puns are Lance's department little buddy." Mike said as Lance slapped his face.
********************
East-Side Dragon Head Quarters
"We got 49th street on our side." One of the Dragons announced as he walked into their gang hangout.
"And you got us…" Came a loud voice as the building began to shake.
"IT'S ALVERS! HE'S BACK!" Their leader, A Chinese kid nicknamed The Silver Samurai, shouted as the dragons ran outside with their automatic weapons ready. (Bet you didn't see that one coming.)
"Guess whose back." Lance said energy pulsed around him. The Brotherhood all stood at his side, ready for combat.
"And he's brought friends…" Toad said as he snatched a fly that was flew near him.
"Waste the MOTHERS!!!" Samurai shouted as the Dragons opened up fire on the Brotherhood. The Brotherhood scattered as Lance's old gang opened up fire of their own.
"This was not what I expected." Mike shouted as he and Pietro circled around at heightened and super speed. Mike then used his tendricals to take out several of the Dragons as Pietro locked two of them up in a twister. Blob charged forward and barreled through them as Toad distracted them. Several went flying due to hex bolts from Wanda and Betsy took them out in hand to hand. Meanwhile the Silver Samurai, seeing the futility of the situation, hopped on his silver bike and drove away from the fight.
"Those who learn to run away, live to fight another day…" Samurai said as he got on his Kawasaki and took off as Lance punched the Dragon's second in command, the person who killed Marco, hard in the gut. Within moment the fight was over, with all of the Dragons taken out of commission. Lance continued to pound of the man as The Brotherhood watched in stone silence.
"Please…no… more…" The Dragon pleaded as Lance's eyes turned white and he proceeded to beat the man bloody with his fists. Lance was quite the entire time, teeth clenched and eyes white as the Brotherhood all looked away as Lance slammed the man to the ground by the arm with a sickening crack. He then got on top and began to punch him repeatedly.
"This…is…for…MARCO!" Lance said as he let out one final punch that knocked the Dragon out cold. Lance got up, blood dripping from his now normal eyes, nose, and fists.
"Lance?" Lance turned to see the last person he thought he would. The big blue eyes, the Brown ponytail, and the petite form. But what got Lance was the look of horror implanted on Kitty Prydes face.
"What are you doing here?" Lance said as he wiped the blood from his eyes, but ended up smearing it on his face as he took rabid gasps of air.
"I came to visit my parents, when I felt the earthquake I thought it might be you…what are you doing?" Kitty asked as the Brotherhood all began to whistle and walk away. Lance just stared at her hard.
"None of your damn business." Lance said. "But let's just say that I'm doing this for an old friend." Lance spat as he walked away.
"What have you become?" Kitty asked as Lance stopped.
"What you made me." Lance said. "Ever since I first met you, you've destroyed everything I've tried to do. You wouldn't get the test answers for me, when they were my one ticket out of this hell. Selling those would have given me enough cash to get out of Northbrook and on some other track in life. When I joined the Brotherhood, You kept defeating me whenever I tried to do what I was hired to do. And I still gave you my heart. And you threw it right back into my face and told me I wasn't good enough..." Lance said, as he didn't even bother to turn around.
"Lance, you…" Kitty began before Lance cut her off.
"You did all that, just so you could believe that your pathetic life has some meaning to it. Just so you can believe that you made a difference. Well guess what kiddo, you made one. You made me what I am now. I hope you have sweet dreams tonight kid." Lance said as he walked away, leaving a teary eyed Kitty and a bunch of beat up thugs.
********************
Back in Bayville
"So I take it you had words with Kitty?" Betsy said as Lance got out of the shower.
"Let's just say I'm thinking a lot clearer now." Lance said with a smile. "I'm a hood. Nothing more nothing less."
"We all are." Mike said as Blob drove the bus home. "But we are more than that."
"Let's not be Hood's. Let's just be the Brotherhood." Blob said with a smile.
"Spoken like a true reverend." Mike said as Lance nodded.
"Amen to that Reverend. Amen to that…" Lance said as he smiled and left his past behind to forge a new future with his friends. Well with the exception of Pietro, who Lance still wanted to maim. But hey, who doesn't?
********************
Next Time on Brotherhood Evolution: You Come from WHAT? What happens when the Brotherhood discover that Betsy comes from money. A LOT of money. We're talking mucho Dinero, money out the Ying-Yang and enough green to cover the earth.
********************
Well that was different writing experience. I congratulate those who have picked up on the subtle hints of similarities between what Lance is going through now, and what happened in "Evolving Avalanche". But you have no clue what's coming up in a few episodes. MWHAHAHAHAHAHAHA (Cough-cough) HAHAHAHAHAHA!!!
Peace out,
