A/N: Hey all! This is the first part of a story that I did a while back for a
school assignment, believe it or not. Second chapter to come out later, the
story is done, I just have to get to my dad's at some point and load it on.
Enjoy the story, and please review!
X-Men: Battle for the Psychiator
"Which do you think would suit you best... sir?" asked the salesclerk. Toad smiled slyly
and chose a purple striped suit and a long black wig. " Excellent choice, sir." The salesclerk
bustled about, trying to find a bag to put the costume in. "It's all right, I don't need a bag," said
Toad. He paid for the suit and left the store.
Walking through the rain, Toad found the subway stairs. The weird thing was, there
were no subways in Tampa Bay. This was actually the secret headquarters of the X-Men. He
chuckled to himself, and put on the suit and wig.
Meanwhile, deep in the subway, Jean Grey, Storm and Cyclops were waiting for
Wolverine to show up for their meeting. "I can't believe this! He was supposed to be here an
hour ago!" said Jean.
"Calm down. He'll be here soon," said Storm. Cyclops was deep in thought.
"Hey, fearless leader, where is he?"
"Jean, you can find that out better than I can. Use your powers." Jean felt around for
another presence.
"Hey guys, someone's in the tunnel."
"Must be Wolverine! I was getting worried," said Cyclops.
Jean spoke. "It's definitely not him. It's another man, that much I know."
Toad kept walking through the tunnel at a steady pace. "They've probably figured out
someone's coming by now," thought Toad. "only they have no idea who it is." With that thought
in mind, he walked faster.
"If it's not Wolverine, then who is it?"asked Storm.
"I don't know. One of us should go and meet this guy, whoever he is."
"Good idea Jean," said Cyclops. "how about you go? Just read his mind and find out
what he wants."
"Fine," she said. "and Cyclops?"
"Yes?"
"Can I have tomorrow off?"
"We'll see." Jean left the cave and went into the tunnel.
Toad saw Jean walking towards him. He got nervous, remembering she could read
minds, but then relaxed. He had a mind block, compliments of Magneto, his recent boss.
"Hey, you!" said Jean. "Who are you anyway?"
Toad smiled and said in a deep voice much unlike his own: "My name is Tyson Parker. I
wish to join the X-Men." Jean tried reading his mind, but there was a block. Odd, she thought.
"So what exactly is your power, Mr. Parker?" questioned Jean.
"I'm an extremely agile person." and Toad then proceeded to jump at blinding speed
around the tunnel.
"Come with me," Jean motioned for Toad to follow. He did so quite quickly.
"What's taking Jean so long? She should be able to meet the person and come back here
in five minutes, tops!"
"Maybe for you, Wolverine, but you forget that Jean is slower than you, and she has to
read the person's mind, and figure out what to do with them afterwards. Besides, she has to walk
back." After saying her piece, Storm walked over to the mirror and started to comb her long hair.
"I'm sure she'll be back soon. It's just taking her a bit longer."
"Somehow I doubt that, Storm." argued Wolverine.
Back in the tunnel, Toad and Jean approached the cave. After walking through the cave
for some time, Jean led Toad towards a large metal door. She punched in the security code. The
door opened to reveal Cyclops, Wolverine and Storm earnestly awaiting her return. Jean cleared
her throat, then spoke. "Fellow X-Men, this is Tyson Parker. He wishes to join the X-Men.
Cyclops walked over to Toad. "Does he have any powers?"
"Yes, he moves with amazing speed and agility, but you know that you have the final say
in this, eh Cyclops?"
"I know." Cyclops thought for a moment. Then he motioned for the others to follow him
into a private room. Toad was left outside.
Once inside the room, Storm started talking at a mile a minute. " I don't care if that guy
was the hope for dying souls, I still don't trust him." Wolverine decided to interrupt.
"You know, if he found our headquarters, we can't really turn him down. He could easily
join forces with Magneto or someone else."
"But how do we know he isn't with Magneto?"
"He most definitely isn't, Storm."
"And how would you know, Jean?"
"I tried to read his mind. There was a block on it. And there is no way Magneto could be
that smart."
"You have a point there," said Cyclops. "I've decided."
"You sure, Cyclops?"
"Yes, Wolverine. It's too risky to let him be swayed."
Toad was waiting anxiously outside the door. Out of the door came the X-Men. Cyclops
spoke first. "Welcome to the X-men, Tyson."
Introductions were made; the meeting took place, and afterwards the X-Men and Toad
went back to their homes, wherever they might be. In toad's case, it was Magneto's lair.
Toad arrived at the shed behind the entry of Busch Gardens theme park. A guard was
there. Toad whispered the password into the guard's ear and stepped into the shed. Inside the
shed there was an elevator, which Toad rode down to the basement. Upon exiting the elevator,
he saw Magneto sitting on his 'throne', an old chair from the Dinosaur ride at Busch Gardens.
"Well?" said Magneto. "How did you do?"
"I am now the newest member of the X-Men," Toad said with a chuckle.
"Excellent. I want you to find out as much information as possible. When is their next
meeting?"
"Tomorrow, boss."
"Find out what their plan are to protect Florida, and what part."
"Yes, sir. But what is your plan?"
Magneto smirked, pointed to a glowing sphere and bragged: " I am going to use the
psychiator sphere which I used to get you past Jean to get mind control over the world's military
so I can rule the world. Hahahahahahaaaaaa!!"
"And uh, you plan to start with Florida?"
"Yes, now go. I have important work to do." Toad excused himself and left.
The next day there was another meeting in the 'subway' cave. The meeting went pretty
normally until toad let it slide that a psychiator was missing from the Tampa Bay Science
Centre.
Heehee! A cliffhanger! Like I said, I have to get to my dad's before I can crank out the next
chapter, it is done, it's just that I'm going to be in Ottawa for Canada Day and I'm leaving on the
28th, and I won't come back until the 2nd. Please review, and I hope you like it!
