PLEASE REVIEW MY ISSUES!
X-Terminators Issue 2of3 April 3rd, 2001
Reunification
Jamie, Lorna and Alex are still sitting in Lorna's living room when suddenly a bright flashing light sends them to the floor, covering their eyes. When the light dissipates the trio look up to see none other than a long time friend.
"Man I just fly into the galaxy and boy are my arms tired! LORNA! Where are ya! I came half a million light years just to visit! Why are you on the floor? ALEX! I THOUGHT YOU WERE DEAD!" Guido Carasella quickly closed the gap between him and the rising Alex. He gave Alex a huge bear hug and then set him down on his feet.
"Whoa big guy! It's good to see you to but I think you fractured a rib or two!" Alex said a little out of breath.
After much explanation to Guido, AKA Strong Guy, they all sit, including Lila Cheney, who had teleported Guido there to begin with.
"We were just about to attempt to contact you Guido. We are getting back into the hero business. Except this time, we are not gonna fight the same enemies over and over again, we are going to fight them once, beat them, and then lock them up and throw away the key. Lorna has already contacted Forge and he has agreed to build us a headquarters right outside of Four Freedoms Tower. Val Cooper has given us exemption from government officials. So if we are ever questioned for unlawful restraint of anyone, we immediately are absolved and that basically gives us unlimited freedom. We have decided upon the name X-Terminators because it has heritage and will strike a little fear into people, and show we are not playing around anymore. Now, are you willing to sign up with us one more time?"
Guido looks at his shoes momentarily and begins to stutter, "Well you see my.. my.. schedule is not really free right now! I really would love to come back but I promised Lila here I would be her body guard and.."
Lila quickly stepped in front of Guido, "What he means to say is of course Alex. He will join as long as it is ok for me as well."
Alex looked surprised but Guido looked even more surprised. "Of course Lila, we definitely would have need of your powers and if it gets Guido involved, more the merrier."
Suddenly another blinding flash illuminated the room and the group shielded their eyes. When the light cleared Sinister stood in the kitchen.
"WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING HERE?" Alex gritted his teeth and charged his fist with cosmic power.
"Don't be so melodramatic my boy. I have come on good terms, for now. I see you are building yourself an army of sorts. Going into the evil mutant collecting business are you? Well you see I have an interest in that field. A major portion of my work is dedicated to mutants I cant get a hold of, for one reason or another. And if you somehow manage to capture and imprison one of these mutants I am interested in, why it would allow me to scope the potential genetic prevalence their genes might have. The harvests would be sweet indeed."
"And why do you think I would ever consider letting you go near any mutant even the scum of Homo Superior?"
Sinister looked up and smiled, "Why? Well that is obvious I have something you want. You may not know you want it, granted, but you do. I can give you something.. a brother."
"Are you saying you have SCOTT?"
"Always jumping to conclusions. I have of course, not fully informed you. I always make this mistake, I get ahead of myself sometimes. Well, lets see. Once upon a time, your mother was raped by a D'Kraanian. That incident produced an offspring. Your mothers genes and a Shiar's genes were mixed. The result was your half-brother. He has been on earth for a few years attempting to find his heritage. He only knows that his mother was human, her husbands name was summers and he has relatives here. I can deliver him to you."
Alex's powers dimmed. "Why should I even believe you?"
"Because I have quirked your interest boy. All I ask is that I collect genetic data which you will have on records already, all you would have to do is set up a private account to deliver this material to and I would claim it, no contact with me is necessary, and in exchange… you get your brother. Adam will be surely happy to finally find you."
"Adam? Ok, Sinister you have a deal, but I want no trouble from you or I will personally lock your ass up and sample your genes myself."
"Prelate Summers, I give you Adam X, otherwise known as XTREME!"
Yet another flash filled the room and Adam X appeared, and Sinister disappeared. Adam looked confused and groggy.
"Adam is it?" Alex said a little coldly."
"Yes?"
"My name is Alex Summers, I am your brother. We need to talk."
