Beast War
To Wizard1: Yeah, Sparky Genocide suggested some tensions between the two Misfit teams. I do intend the West Coast team to get along better with the X-Men than the East Coast team do. And did I mention that Husk will fall under the Starr Family spell? No, I read up on the Ani-Men on the internet, and I don't plan to make these guys into the Ani-Men. BTW, When's that sequel coming up?! As for Arcade being a Misfit, I have been toying with an idea: Maybe in another attempt to get Kid Razor's mystical guitar, Selene uses her magical powers to mess with Arcade from afar somehow. The magic causes Arcade's sanity to slip away, transforming him into a murderous maniac, and the Black Queen promises to restore it if Kid Razor hands the guitar over.
To Aaron: Yep, the West and East Coast Misfits are working together. I'm glad you like the reactions to the letters Ace gets, it's a wonder he doesn't react that way himself. Well, considering his old man was a rock roadie and his mom was a groupie, he's probably used to hearing torrid stories.
To Dylan Wiles: No, the Misfits are the creation of Red Witch. I just added Darkstar, Starchild, Pyro, and Lila to the team, and created a second team of Misfits.
To Sparky Genocide: Holy Toledo! That's a lot of possible Acolytes! And most of my X-Men knowledge comes from my X-Men guidebook. I am familiar with Jeremy, I read an Uncanny X-Men comic while at the store once with him in it. And I am slightly familiar with Emce. Doesn't she have a thing for ol' Bucket-Head?
To RogueFanKC: Homework during Winter Break? That sucks! I really want to concentrate more on the Misfit teams with this story.
To Red Witch: I don't really intend for Xi to bond with any of Mindbender's creations. Knowing that egomaniac, he probably has only given them enough intelligence to obey his commands and that's it. I read "The New Guy" and it's good so far. I'm still not sure have Arcade a Misfit is a good idea, but I am willing to give it a chance.
Chapter 3: Mindbender's Creations Revealed!

"What?" Siryn and Althea asked a guard.
"There's a big bat creature outside the building." The guard whispered.
"I got it." Thresa ran outside. What she saw was a pair of guards firing at the blonde-haired half-girl, half-bat. It responded with sonic screams. "What? That thing looks a little like me, and it has my powers!" She flew up to the creature on her screams. "Who are you?"
"AAAAAAAAHHHHH!!!!!!" The bat-creature fired a vocal blast.
"HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!" Mindbender laughed at the West Coast Misfit leader from a jeep. "Like my creation? Technically, you are its mother."
"What do you mean I'm the mother of that thing?!?! And who are you?!" Siryn asked angrily.
"I am Dr. Mindbender, genius extraordinaire." Mindbender grinned arrogantly. "I created that bat-creature by combining your DNA with the DNA of the bat. Appropriate for you, considering your power is sound-based, and bats use sound to determine their location."
"I'm so honored." Siryn growled, shooting the arrogant Cobra scientist an angry look. "AAAAAHHHHH!!!!!!!!" The bat-creature took the Irish girl down with a sonic scream. "YE ARE A DEAD MAN, MINDBENDER!!!" Siryn screamed as she covered her ears. A fireball and a stream of flames hit the bat creature, knocking it back. Sunfire and Pyro raced out. The Japanese mutant immediately helped up Siryn, while Pyro pointed his flamethrowers at Mindbender.
"Start talking mate, before I roast you like a big ol' piggy! WHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!" Pyro cackled insanely. Mindbender smirked.
"I do not think so." Mindbender smirked. Two streams of flames flew from nowhere out at Pyro.
"Yipe!" St. John Allerdyce waved his hand, and the flame streams flew up harmlessly into the air.
"What?" Sunfire growled. He noticed the sources of the flames. "Pyro! Look!" The Australian noticed two more man-creatures. One was a hybrid of a human and a fire salamander, with black-and-blond hair. Its body was surrounded by flames. The other was a cross between a human and a komodo dragon. It had red hair with yellow streaks at the temples. "What are those filthy creatures?"
"I combined the DNA of you two with a fire salamander to create that one. It was a great idea, considering your powers would work well together." Mindbender pointed at Toshi and St. John, then at the fire salamander creature. "Sunfire's DNA lets it create the flame, and Pyro's DNA lets it control the flame. It should be obvious who the komodo dragon creature calls on for DNA."
"Red Dragon." The Japanese and Australian mutants said together.
"Ah, you kiddies are smarter than I thought." Mindbender grinned. The rest of the two Misfit teams ran outside. "Hey kids."
"Mindbender, what are you up to?" Lance growled. Most of the misfits were really none too fond of Mindbender.
"The Thunderbolt should whoop your jabroni self all over Denver!" Thunderbolt hollered at the mad doctor.
"You'll have to go through them first." Mindbender smirked. Several more creatures appeared. "The bear creature I created with a combination of the DNA of John Proudstar and Fred Dukes, aka Thunderbird and the Blob. The electric eel was from Thunderbolt's DNA. The lion creature was created with the DNA of Ace Starr, aka Wildstar. A simple creation because Ace's DNA has some lion-like characteristics." Ace snarled at his own double, which looked like a half-man, half-lion, with a huge brown mane with black tips. Xi was shocked when he saw his own double: It looked like a more ferocious version of himself on steroids with sharp teeth, a whiplike tail and hood like a Cobra.
"Mindbender, you monster!" Xi said.
"You were always such a failure." The Cobra doctor huffed. He pointed at a cheetah-like monster. "This one was created with a combination of the DNA of Quicksilver and Velocity. The black cat was from Wanda's DNA."
"Oh, beautiful." Wanda grumbled sarcastically.
"The toad creature was Virus's suggestion." Mindbender grinned.
"I can tell. It's butt-ugly." Todd growled.
"And I guess the shark creature comes from my DNA?" Althea asked. Lance roared in rage when he figured out his clone's splice.
"I HATE COYOTES!!!" Lance screamed. "MINDBENDER, YOU ARE DEAD!!!"
"Think of it as revenge for when you sent the coyote out against me." Mindbender smirked.
"What'd you use for us?" Paul and Craig asked in unison. Mindbender pointed at a mutated horse-man with a swirly purple-and-black birthmark over its right eye.
"Cute. Real cute." Craig growled, pulling out his nightstick from his jacket.
"I really couldn't think o an animal appropriate for the Starr Brothers." Mindbender shrugged. "I tried. I just came up with a horse randomly."
"That thing's powers can't hurt us, Mindbender!" Paul said. "We can't be hypnotized by each other, and our eye lasers can't hurt us."
"So he used our DNA to create these monstrosities." John glared. "You, Dr. Mindbender, are a sick man. You create abominations against nature on a regular basis."
"You kidding, Proudstar? He's number 1 on Mother Nature's hit list." Pietro quipped.
"Couldn't think of one for either of us?" Rahne snarled, pointing at herself and X23.
"My wolf creature was for you two, mostly because your DNA has lupine characteristics." Mindbender motioned to a wolf creature with auburn fur.
"I don't care! We can defeat them!" Proudstar hollered, charging in.
"Thunderbird! Thunderbolt! No!" Siryn screamed. The Apache and Boston mutants were charging the creatures.
Here we go! Can the combined powers of the East Coast and West Coast Misfits defeat the creatures? What of Dr. Mindbender? What of the Joes and the people in the convention center? Fin d out in the next chapter! Suggestions needed badly!
