Note/Introduction: All characters in this story except for Spiracle and the rest of the Srastones are property of Marvel Comics. Spiracle and the Srastones are characters that were created by me. Anyway, I hope you like this story with some of marvel's finest battling in a world that was mistakenly created in time. Now new teams have been formed like the J-Force and Children of Destiny, all battling out for freedom.
An Era In Time: Rivals No More
Chapter 1
"Yes Professor, I understand. Good-bye," Polaris (Age: 17) hung up the phone and assembled the rest of her team, Justice-Force. "J-Force, we have been called on a mission."
"What type?" Colmillo (Wolfsbane, Age: 16) asked--(for everyone's information, colmillo is Spanish for fang, and since Wolfsbane can turn into a wolf-humanoid, I figured fang would be a cool name...and no, I'm not Spanish. But I take it in school. Anyway, back to the story!)
"Not one for you, Colmillo. You are only a trainee. None of the trainee's are going on this mission. That means Colossus (Age: 17) and Yana (Magik, Age: 14) aren't either. Mostly because you will be training our newest recruit, Stele (Cecilia Reyes, Age: 14). Anyway, about this mission. We have to help the one called Spiracle destroy a time matrix so we can return to Earth. This Spiracle is part of Children of Destiny. She said that we all came from a planet Earth and we were teleported here because of something accidental she has done. Professor Xavier has read her mind and said she is telling the truth. If we don't destroy this matrix, the Clan of Evil will take over the universe."
"I'm up for it," Quicsilver (Age: 19) said quickly. "Howa 'bout you, Drake (Iceman, Age:19)? Up for it?"
"Of course!" Drake said creating an iceball.
"We don't need any arguing!" Rogue (Age: 17) yelled. Flame (Pyro, Age: 18) shot some fire at Drake's iceball and melted it.
"Rogue is right. We will leave for the Children of Destiny Palace now. Trainees? Good luck in training Stele," Polaris commanded. With that, J-Force was off. Leaving Colossus, Yana, Colmillo and the new recruit Stele behind.
"So, Stele, I'm Colossus, this is my sister Yana, and that's-"
"Save it! Stele is dead," Stele's body changed into Mystique's. "Listen trainees, you aren't respected at all in this team. You never go on any missions. How would you like to be respected?"
"I'm in!" Colmillo said.
"Not so fast," Colossus said boldly. "What's the catch?"
"The catch?" Mystique asked. "You help me rescue the rest of my team of Sky-Jammers from the UniOfficers, and you'll get to go on several missions and always have fun. I managed to escape with my shape-shifting ability."
"Oh please Piotr! Lets go on the mission!" Yana begged.
"I guess. We'll go on the mission to rescue your team, but we aren't saying we'll join. We'll see how things run. If I like the way your team works, you got 3 new recruits," Colossus explained.
Mystique smiled, "Perfect!"
Chapter 2
"Where are those thieves anyway?" Scarlet Witch asked Mischevanche as they walked towards the UniOfficers head base.
"In prison! Where do you think?" Mischevanche said sarcastically.
"Not so fast, sister!" Sabre yelled. "Nightstalker, grab Scarlet Witch and teleport her back to base!" Nightstalker teleported to Scarlet Witch and grabbed her. He than teleported off.
"Big mistake, sister!" Mischevanche yelled.
"I think you're the one mistaken!" Sabre created a psychic sword and slashed it towards Mischevanche. Mischevanche created a psychic sword also and leashed towards Sabre. The swords made contact at the same time and the psychic gene from the both of them blasted the two girls to an empty desert. It was dark, but luckily a small fire had been built.
"Great, look where you got us!" Mischevanche yelled.
"Me?" Sabre asked. "You're the one who copied my attack!"
"Oh yeah?"
"Becca, lets stop. Fighting won't solve anything," Sabre said softly.
"Yes it will. I want you dead!"
"Why Becca, why?"
"Cause I'm...jealous," Mischevanche said softly. "I've always been jealous of you, Betsy. Remember when we were 9? Our parents died? We had no where to go. Professor Xavier offered us to live with him. He was only 15 at the time. I didn't think he was experienced enough to take care of us."
"Yeah. I remember. And Magnus offered to take us in as his daughters," Sabre said.
"Yeah. Well, Magnus was about 28 and he seemed more like a father figure. Yeah, I knew he had a Clan of Evil with Sinister and Lord Bishop, but I still joined. He taught me everyone about using my powers. I mean everything! I grew to become so loyal to him. So loyal that two years later when you came to me I gave you that scar on your eye," Mischevanche said. "I did it because Magnus knew you would come. He told me to hurt you."
"But how did that make you jealous?"
"Oh, you were right! You chose to live with Xavier and I chose Magnus and his goons! It turns out Xavier was a better choice, even if he was younger. I didn't want to admit that you were right, Betsy," Mischevanche explained. "But you were."
"Well, both you and I didn't know how the future would turn out. Maybe it was a good thing this happened. Now we are talking to each other without killing one another," Sabre smiled. "Becca! Wait a minute, if you destroy the time matrix we can return back to Earth and still be good sisters. I remember now! Professor Xavier told me that false memories were placed in everyone's minds when we were brought here."
"So we aren't really sisters?"
"Of course we are! And we will be on Earth! If you destroy the time matrix-"
"No!" Mischevanche yelled. "I am still loyal to Magnus!"
"Why? You just told me that-"
"I don't care!" Mischevanche started to cry.
"Remember when we learned about the Legendary Magma (Magma, former member of New Mutants)? The greatest hero ever to exist in this universe? She always did the right thing. Now why don't you?" Sabre asked.
"That's all fake, remember? You just told me false memories been placed--OH! Everything's false!" Mischevanche yelled. "So, I will no longer by Mischevanche. I am Becca! I'll destroy the time matrix and make everything right!"
"That's the spirit!" Sabre cheered.
"I never thought there would be another me," a soft and soothing voice said.
"Who said that?" Becca asked. She and Sabre were looking around everywhere to see where the voice was coming from.
"Look in the fire. It is I, the Legendary Magma! I knew you would come. Together, you are as strong as I once was. You can save the universe by destroying the time matrix. Remember Becca, Magnus and Sinister still think you are part of the Clan of Evil," the fire spoke. Than, Magma's body emerged from the fire. "Good luck you too." Magma went off, and Becca and Sabre arrived back in front of the UniOfficer Station.
"Before we go, can I ask you one thing?" Becca said.
"Of course Becca, what?"
"If all our memories are false, than the Legendary Magma was never that great."
"Huh, guess you're right," Sabre agreed.
Chapter 3
"Cursed these stupid prison cells!" Bandit yelled as he fired his last card of kinetic energy at the wall. "Our mutant powers have no effect."
"Oh shut up, Bandit, quit your wining!" Meltdown walked over to the prison cell and unlocked it. Bandit and the rest of the thieves were out. "Now I can finally get out of this pathetic form!" Meltdown's figure and color than changed to Mystique's.
"Mystique? I knew you would come!" Shadow said.
"Yes Kitty, I know," Mystique said as a booming sound struck in the other room. The thieves ran to the main hall of UniOfficer Sation. Colossus, Yana and Colmillo were attacking the UniOfficers like crazy.
"The bullets aren't working on that tin can! Get somethin' better!" Shard yelled pointing to Colossus.
"Too late!" Yana fired black magic at Shard and she fell down just like the rest of the UniOfficers soon had done.
"What's this? Who are they?" X-Man demanded to know.
"Meet Colossus, Yana and Colmillo. Our newest recruits!" Mystique introduced them.
"No way. We don't need anymore recruits, right Bandit?" X-Man asked.
"Wrong you fool! Of course we need them. We'll take as many as we can get. Now, lets say we go and steal that beautiful time matrix of the Clan of Evil," Bandit suggested. "They'll want it back, and we'll make them pay us 1,200 genesye for it. That should be enough to get us out of our lives of crime."
"But if crime committing is over, then what will we do?" Colmillo asked.
"I didn't say we would be done committing crimes. But if we get 1,200 genesye and give it to the UniOfficers they can no longer arrest us, they can only stop us," Bandit said. "It is impossible for a thief and his clan to get 1,200 genesye. That's why the made the law. But, we are going to make it possible and prove the law wrong!"
"Awesome!"
Chapter 4
Professor Xavier ran down the Clan of Evil hallways holding a machine gun in his hand. Following him were Blink, Drake, Jubilation and Nightstalker. J-Force and Children of Destiny were now working together to destroy the time matrix. Spiracle, Polaris, Wings, Quicksilver, Rogue and Flame were on the other team. Spiracle's team arrived in front of the time matrix, and so did Xavier's.
"Now what?" Professor Xavier asked from the other side of the time matrix.
"We destroy it," Spiracle said. "I'll make the first move."
"No you won't!" Bandit yelled. Ororo used her wind to lift the time matrix up and X-Man steadied it with his telekinesis. "The matrix is now ours!"
"Idiots! No one is harming the matrix or stealing it!" Cable yelled running into the room with the rest of his UniOfficer team. "No offense thieves, you can't get rid of us that easily!" Then, Sonique (Siryn if you don't remember) walked up to everyone.
"A member of the Clan of Evil!" Bandit hissed.
"No, I am not a real member. I only joined to give my father the freedom he deserved...until he died. He was once captured by Bishop, Magnus and Sinister. Oh well. Go ahead, destroy the matrix, see if I care," Sonique said in a soft and upsetting voice.
"No one is destroying it! We're takin' it!" Bandit yelled.
"No you aren't!" Quicksilver yelled. "It is gonna blow up into pieces."
"Yes, it must be destroyed!" Sabre yelled as she and Becca flipped into the room. "It is the only way!"
"The universe will be doomed if we don't destroy it," Becca said.
"My beautiful time matrix! No one shall destroy it!" a scary and loud voice bellowed.
"Says who?" Spiracle asked.
"Me!" out of the shadows emerged a 10-foot Bishop with Magneto, Wolverine, Blob and Sinister by his side. "The time matrix is ours and only ours! Just like the universe will soon be!"
"Wait, don't forget about me!" Scarlet Witch yelled running into the room. "That prison couldn't hold me forever!"
"You escaped from the Children of Destiny's cage? Good my dear Scarlet," Bishop bellowed.
"Don't call me that! I'm not fighting along side of you!" Scarlet Witch yelled. "Not no way, not no how! I'm fighting against you!"
