Rise Of
The Misfits
Chapter 1
Disclaimer: This was inspired by L1701E's 'The Starr Chronicles', a fic that I would love to see him continue again and in a sense he has with his new version of it. And I thought it'd be fun to try my own way of forming the Misfits (along with using a few Red Witch characters/concepts) as well. Not entirely sure if I should place this in the X-Men: Evolution/GI Joe section just yet. Takes place about two weeks after the events of 'Mainstream'.
The sight of a sullen Todd 'Toad' Tolensky coming down the stairs within the Brotherhood Boarding House, while normally an unusual sight, wasn't the case lately in the past two weeks. As one of their own had gotten sick a few hours after their failed attempt at trying to keep the X-Men out of Bayville High. Now the group had thought he'd get better within a day or so but as time passed, that was quickly becoming less and less likely of a chance. As Lance Alvers' condition steadily grew worse to the point he couldn't get out of bed and had to be helped to sit up at times. Occasionally he hallucinated when not puking or coughing to the point it hurt him like nothing else ever had. His powers had even stopped working as well because of whatever was happening to him and the whole thing was beginning to really and truly scare his friends in the Brotherhood.
Even Wanda whenever she was there and not out searching for her father, though she wouldn't admit it to them, was starting to get worried. "No change, huh?" Asked Fred to his little friend.
"No. None at all."
Fred sighed heavily as Todd plopped down in a nearby recliner. "If we could just get in contact with Magneto or even Mystique..."
A snort came from the larger Mutant. "An emergency contact number would be real handy right now." Grumbled the Texan native sourly.
That particular situation was something else that was causing strain at the Brotherhood Home and both boys were about at their wit's end and find their loyalties wavering towards the two adult mutants. They were also starting to resent Pietro since it felt like he had practically abandoned them as well. They were even quite fearful of taking Lance to the hospital due to the animosity against Mutants and as well as the belief that they wouldn't get any help from the Humans there. Going to Xavier was out of the question as well due to the hostilities between the two groups. "I still think we should just take Lance to Xavier's."
Both boys looked up at one Wanda Maximoff and scowled at her. "Those jerks wouldn't bother helpin' us and you know it!" Yelled Todd angrily.
"The Professor tried helping me for years, so I think he would help us!"
Both Todd and Fred scowled at her, not necessarily willing to consider the thought given their issues with the X-Men. Things went quiet for a short time until screaming from upstairs was heard. "NO! GET THE KNIFE AWAY FROM ME!"
"That's it, get him into his jeep, we're taking him to the hospital and see how that goes!" Declared Wanda and glared at the two boys to try and challenge her on the matter
Thankfully neither were willing to challenge her on this since neither wanted to end up on the receiving end of her powers. Quickly they made for Lance and got him to his jeep and hauled ass for the hospital despite the fact none of the three could drive that well.
Author's Notes: Just how will things go at the hospital? Stay tuned to find out! I've also had this and the 5 other chapters sitting on my hard drive for months now and I thought it was just finally time to do something with it so here we are. And as always, thanks to Red Witch for allowing writers a chance to do their own takes and the like with her Misfits work.
