I do not own X-men evolution or its characters, and I only lay claim to the
OC Tyler Klimov. The OC's that show up in my story will be accredited to at
the bottom after every chapter once they've appeared.
The Brotherhood chapter I promised, mostly BH anyway, kinda short, but that's just how things are for the time, getting to a major point next chapter. Had to cut this one short because the dynamic of how everyone lives is about to change greatly.
BTW, I really shouldn't have said prank by Jean, I should have said cruel and unusually evil trick because she was pissed off.
A Dark Future Chapter 7- The Brotherhood of Mutants
This chapter takes place 4 days after Chapter 6
Mystique escapes Area 51 just like in the show.
'Alex' was in Mexico and picked up a pay phone and dialed the mansion number, we all know of course this is not Alex, but Mystique.
Jean picked up the phone, Scott was still comatose and everyone was recovering, the death of Bobby had affected everyone as well, especially the New Recruits, they just couldn't see how he could be gone, and especially like that. Amara had taken it the hardest, because she was the one who 'killed' him, she didn't even know it was him when she fried him.
"Hello?" Jean asked. "Jean, this is Alex, is Scott there?" Raven asked. Jean's eyes narrowed and she resisted a growl. Alex KNEW Scott was in a coma, and he would never joke about this. Jean quickly went through a list of who could be doing this and came up with a short one, Mystique. How had she gotten out? She must have been after Scott for what he did to her in Area 51 that was obvious. 'Two can play at this game you fucking bitch,' Jean thought and then did her best to sound as sad as possible, thinking of Scott in a coma to help. "No, he's gone off, we haven't seen him since Kurt died a few days ago," She said doing her best to sound emotionally traumatized. "The blue guy. died?" Alex asked. "Yes. it was horrible, Bobby. he's one of the newer students. he turned on us. Kurt did everything he could to try to stop him. and Bobby turned him into ice and shattered him," She then faked crying.
Mystique stood on the phone with a blank expression on her face, Alex's face to be more precise. "Wow, I'm sorry to hear that. if Scott comes in. tell him I called ok?" Alex said. "I promise," Jean said and hung up. "Fucking bitch," She snarled and walked off.
"The Iceman will die for this," Mystique snarled angrily. Mystique then walked down the Mexican street angry with herself, Magneto and a multiple number of other. "If he'd learned properly from me he wouldn't be dead," She snarled. "I can thank Eric for that," She then added. "And those damned X-men; this is there fault too. convincing him to believe that humans and mutants can live in piece. what a crock of shit!" Mystique slammed her hand into the wall. "I'm going to get them all back, this Iceman, the X-men, Magneto, they'll all pay for this," She snarled. 'But I need troops. loyal ones who I can use and train to be. well, there always is the Brotherhood. yeees. they will do, for now,' She thought.
Jean walked into the Professor's office and looked at him, he seemed depressed. "Something wrong professor?" She asked. "Yes, Kurt and Roberto are missing," He said in a sad voice, "And Cerebro cannot detect them." He added.
Magneto's base had since moved from the water to a mountainous area in New York State. "Anyone seen Wanda?" Tyler asked getting up from his bed, Magneto's advanced healing treatments had helped him recover, and he noted Wanda had stayed with him a fair bit in recovery. "Naah, she went outside for some air," Pietro said and looked at his watch. "4. hours. ago," He said looking puzzled. "What about Colossus? He around?" Asked Tyler sounding more annoyed. "Nope, haven't seen him all day," Pietro said. Magneto then entered the room. "Where are Wanda and Piotr?" He asked looking very distort. "No," Omega Red said entering the room. "The two have gone missing," He said looking serious. "Yea, I saw them leave looking like Zombies," Gambit said walking into the room. Magneto immediately glared around the room. "Very well then," He said growling. Tyler quickly walked over and put on his trench coat and walked towards the exit. "Where do you think your going?" Magneto snapped. "To find your daughter," Avatar said and left without another word. "What do we do now?" Quicksilver asked his father. "Gambit, Pyro, go with him, Omega Red, Sabertooth and Quicksilver, stay here, we may have some plans to commence," Magneto said. Pyro and Gambit quickly ran out after there teammate.
Mystique left the New York City Airport and was driving down a country road when she noticed something passing a small town, there was A LOT of blood on the street. She got out of her car and formed into her natural state and glared around. She went into some nearby trees seeing some blood lead to it and after trekking for about 10 minutes heard some noise. 'Crying?' She mentally asked herself and continued to follow until she saw a young girl in the fetal position lying on the ground crying. Mystique immediately noted the bad like wings coming from the black haired girls back. They where bat like and the skin stretched over them. She noted that the girl was by a bloodied pond, it seemed she'd tried to wash the blood off, but it didn't help much, it was all over her. "Hello?" Mystique asked. The girl immediately turned her head and moved slightly back. "Wait, what's your name?" Mystique asked stepping forward calmly. 'This is just what I need, another recruit,' Mystique thought. "Listen. I know what this looks like. but." She was cut off. "You killed everyone out there, I know it, and you know it, let's not try to disguise the truth shall we?" Mystique said. The girl immediately shook. "My name is Mystique, and I'm here to help you," Raven said trying to act as nice and calm as possible, anyone who could off 50 or 60 humans was a person she could use, though even Raven felt some pity for the girl. "My. my name is Neona Shields," The teen replied. "Come with me Neona, I'm going to a place where there are others like us, and we can take what is ours from the humans, the ones who I'm sure oppressed you, since, well, the blood speaks for itself," Mystique said. Neona could feel the Aura coming off Mystique, it was not black and evil, or white and pure, it was just, gray. "Ok." Neona said unsure and Mystique grinned and took her hand, "Then come on, we have to go before the authorities arrive," Mystique said.
Meanwhile,
Mesmero stood with his 4 new lackeys in front of two dark figures. "Are you sure these ones will do?" The one with glowing green eyes asked. "Yes master, I think our mutual master Apocolypse will enjoy there talents very much," Mesmero said. "I have no time to speak with this foolish master of yours, I cannot believe you actually lead me out here, tell me when the old fool is awakened, until then, don't bother my work again or Apocolypse or not, I'll take your life," He said and quickly left, his metallic cape moving with him in his blue armor. "Ingrate," The 6'3 figure said crossing his arms. "I hope the master disposes of him," He added. He then turned to Mesmero. "I am the last of the disciples of Apocolypse, I must be ensured these will do for his new horsemen. and my replacement," Said the muscular figure. "Of course they will be," Mesmero said. "I should hope so, the master will expect nothing but the best for his new horsemen. then. maybe he will finally let me die," Said the man sadly. "But I will not die until the master has no more use for me, I have sworn my life to him and I will honor my allegiance," Said the figure holding his double edged battle axe. He wore a black suit that went over his entire body, he had white markings on his chest and face, but the mask had two slits for his glowing green eyes. He wore two gloves that where red with spiked fists. He looked at the new Horsemen. Night Crawler, Scarlet Witch, Colossus, and Sunspot, soon each would take there different persona. But first a test must be made for them. "Mesmero, we move to the lower species city tonight, to show a sacrifice to Apocolypse and all his glory," The Last Horsemen said, the one who had only been known as. War.
Mystique came into the Brotherhood house with the covered figure next to her. "Guess whose baaaaack?" Mystique said loud enough for the entire house to hear. "Back again?" Toad said jumping into the room, "Shady is back, tell a friend," Fred then added. Mystique jump kicked him into a wall just because she disliked that song. Lance came in with Tabitha and DJ. "Oh shit, not you again," Tabitha said. "Ahh, Boom Boom," Mystique said locking her gaze on her. "You can stay this time," Mystique then said. Tabitha raised a brow. "Oh really? You know I have your room and I'm not leaving this time you blue skinned bit." She was cut off by Mystique chuckling. "I'm not staying here this time Smith, but I will be keeping in touch, and command," Mystique said. "This is Mystique huh?" DJ said jumping in front of her, "DJ McCoy," He said putting his hand out to shake. Mystique just glared at him. "I can see you win all the awards for being nice and social," DJ then said. Mystique ignored him. "This is Neona, or Pixie, your newest member," Raven said gesturing towards the girl behind her.
Pixie had short black hair, dark brown eyes, she was very pail, and had a slight scar on her left cheek. "Hey, welcome to the brotherhood," Lance said friendly. "Yea yo, this place is the shit yo," Toad said smiling happily. "Get her a room, some food and cloths, I'm leaving, I have some things to investigate," Mystique said looking very cross.
DJ watched the blue woman leave. "Bitch," He said to himself. "I heard that!" Mystique shouted. "She says that every time, she just assumes we call her one when she leaves," Fred explained. "Wow, is she usually right?" DJ asked, "Yes," Lance replied.
DJ looked around the room and saw Lance helping Neona with some new clothing. He himself didn't really wanna help out, because he noted Lance seemed perfectly happy helping her by himself. 'He has screwed up taste, little too demonic for my tastes, not that I'm not,' Thought Zero. DJ walked outside and looked out at the sky. "Something's going to happen," He said to himself. "I can feel it, I don't know how, but I can," DJ said.
At the exact same time at the mansion
Specter looked out his balcony with a bewildered look on his face. "I know something is going to happen, I don't know how or why. but something is happening," Michael said.
On the road to New York,
Gambit and Pyro looked at Tyler who looked seriously at the blue sky above. "Something is coming," Tyler said. "I can feel it," Tyler said and his eyes flashed with shock behind his sunglasses. "Wanda," He whispered to himself, too low for Pyro or Gambit to hear as they took the ride from the back of a pickup from a man nice enough to give them a lift.
Back to the Boarding house,
DJ snapped out of the phased look he had and shook it off quickly. He turned around to see Fred and Toad watching TV with Tabitha and Lance helping Neona with some stuff upstairs to her new room. He couldn't help feel drawn to somewhere though. He just ignored it for now. DJ quickly went towards the kitchen and looked around for some food.
Later that evening around 12:00 am,
DJ was the only one awake tonight. He heard something and saw Mystique had returned. He noticed the blue woman looked shocked, sad and angry. "It's true, he's not there," Raven snarled angrily. "They'll all pay for this," She added as a tear fell from each eye. "Who will?" DJ asked coming out and Mystique locked her evil eyes onto him. "How DARE you spy on me," She snarled. He backed away immediately. "Hey! I'm just trying to be nice here, don't kill me," He said raising his hands. "Why did you come back here anyway? I thought you said you were going to live somewhere else?" Asked DJ. "I am, but I'm first checking up on our new recruit," She said sounding annoyed. "Ok. Well, whatever it is that made you sad, I hope it gets better, I'm sure everything will turn out fine," DJ said friendly. Mystique snarled and went up the stairs. A few minutes later she came down them once more and turned into a bird and flew out the window.
DJ came to the living room to see Neona standing there looking at the other members of the Brotherhood, she looked much stronger than before, and seemed much different, as he thought she was smoking a cigarette too. She looked over at Toad. "I don't like you," She said and then looked at Fred, "And I don't like you, don't come near me of I'll cut your eyes out," She snapped. Both boys looked at each other oddly and then back at her looking slightly confused. Lance laughed once and then looked at his two fellow original brotherhood members. "Guess she has good sense of taste," He said smirking. "Shut up Lance, at least we didn't try going out with 'Kitty'," Fred said grinning evilly. "Knock it off Freddy," Tabitha snapped. "Dude, shut up, everybody," DJ shouted and walked in. "I wanna know some shit, so I need everyone to spill when I ask the questions," DJ said. "Why?" Toad asked. "Last night, the 'boss lady', as you called her didn't seem quiet the same, I could have SWORN I saw her crying coming here last night," DJ said. "That's a good one," Toad said laughing. "She was," Pixie said, "I detected a sad aura in the house last night," She said, 'other than my own,' she mentally added sadly. "What do you mean?" Tabitha asked. The girl now wearing gothic clothing of a Fishnet long-sleeve over a black spaghetti- strap tank top with a black short skirt and "witches" shoes; turned to her. "My mom taught me how to detect aura's and follow them, I can even read when people are happy and sad, and how they are, if there good spirited or evil spirited," She said. "Mystique is gray, that's very rare, that means she can be very nice, or very mean," She said. "Got that right," Lance said under his breath. "Well, whatever affected her, think it was important?" Asked DJ. "Naah, can't be that important," Freddy said. "I dunno yo, it might be, maybe she's ill," Toad said. "I wouldn't be complaining," Lance said. "Hey, maybe she is a bitch, but we can some respect right?" DJ asked.
Just then the door burst open and Mystique came in. "Alright you little maggots, we have work to do, I got in contact with my most reliable source last night, and tomorrow we're going to attack the Xavier institute, some reliable sources say all our enemies will be there to be crushed at once," Mystique said. Just then DJ's eyes seemed to almost glow. "I. I. I have to go," He said seriously and started to walk out. "Hey, what?" Fred asked seeming confused. "You're not going anywhere," Mystique snarled. DJ shoved her out of the way and walked out. No one in the Brotherhood did that to Mystique. She looked shocked and so did the rest of the hood. "Don't get any ideas," Mystique snarled to the remaining members.
"So, anyone wanna go get a drink or something? I got a fake," Lance said. "No, just some smokes are good," Neo said. "Oh come on, we always get plastered at the brotherhood house," Fred said. "No worries, we always have a good time," Tabitha assured. Mystique just rolled her eyes and left. "So, wanna go or what?" Toad asked. "Sure, the wings. don't let you have many friends," Neo said. "It's all good, mutant is a mutant, we don't care either way, as long as you're with us," Lance said with a grin.
2 hours later in a park with an excessive amount of alcohol consumed,
"You know what? You guys are great, I haven't really had many friends before," Neo said with the slang of having 4 beers in her voice. "Don't mention it! You should have seen Toad and Fred. I'm the only guy who actually had a social life before the hood," Lance said with an also slurred voice. "You two know what? I think that the moon is brighter than the sun, it just seems so much. so much, BIGGER!" Tabitha said, she'd drank the most out of them and Toad was smoking something in the corner as she said this, it was not a cigarette either. "We better get back, the blue bitch will be back tomorrow and she's gonna have us do stuff," Fred said. The Brotherhood stumbled to Lance's jeep. "You sure we should drive?" Neo asked. "I will, I'm not drunk! You all have no stomach for alcohol compared to the Blob!" Freddy said with a big grin. "Rub it in why don't ya?" Lance said and sat in the back as the jeep drove off. Neo fell asleep in the back, plagued by nightmares of her recent actions; she had been very good at ignoring what she had done in her conscious, but not in her subconscious. "Hey guys, Neo's freaking out," Lance said as she started to cry in her sleep and thrash in the back of the jeep. "Shit, we didn't do any drugs," Toad said. "It's a nightmare I bet," Fred said. "What you mean?" Tabitha asked. "I overheard Mystique, I think she killed some people," The Blob said. "Oh," Everyone said in reply. The next to pass out of course was Tabitha, and Toad just sat back casually, completely baked waiting to arrive home, and awaiting what the next day would bring.
***
I also knew I said I would have 2 characters join the BH, but I'm going to have to do the other after some other stuff, it was too hard to get it all done in one chapter and make it look good.
This is a small chapter because the next one is going to be huge, massive changes occur which is one reason why this is called 'A Dark Future'. Will New York survive the battle that is to come? Fate seems to be guiding 3 people towards a conflict there, what will happen?
The next chapter will be separated into 5 parts in the end, and I hope its good enough, I've got some kick ass plans for the Hellfire Club after that. I've got some ideas for Sinister and the Marauders, but nothing is confirmed yet. To put it lightly, next chapter you'll see some serious shit go down, and cause even more serious shit to go down.
BTW, to make up for the shortness of this chapter, and believe me it will, the next chapter is about, 10-11 pages typed on word. so, about 5000-6000 words, keep that in mind.
DJ 'Zero' McCoy belong to Hybrid Omega, and Michael 'Specter' Raynor belongs to Emerald Knight1. Neona 'Pixie' Shields belongs to PyroRockerGrl. I thank everyone who has submitted a character to me and I hope I will be able to use as many as possible.
The Brotherhood chapter I promised, mostly BH anyway, kinda short, but that's just how things are for the time, getting to a major point next chapter. Had to cut this one short because the dynamic of how everyone lives is about to change greatly.
BTW, I really shouldn't have said prank by Jean, I should have said cruel and unusually evil trick because she was pissed off.
A Dark Future Chapter 7- The Brotherhood of Mutants
This chapter takes place 4 days after Chapter 6

"The Iceman will die for this," Mystique snarled angrily. Mystique then walked down the Mexican street angry with herself, Magneto and a multiple number of other.

On the road to New York,
Gambit and Pyro looked at Tyler who looked seriously at the blue sky above. "Something is coming," Tyler said. "I can feel it," Tyler said and his eyes flashed with shock behind his sunglasses. "Wanda," He whispered to himself, too low for Pyro or Gambit to hear as they took the ride from the back of a pickup from a man nice enough to give them a lift.

"Dude, shut up, everybody," DJ shouted and walked in. "I wanna know some shit, so I need everyone to spill when I ask the questions," DJ said. "Why?" Toad asked. "Last night, the 'boss lady', as you called her didn't seem quiet the same, I could have SWORN I saw her crying coming here last night," DJ said. "That's a good one," Toad said laughing. "She was," Pixie said, "I detected a sad aura in the house last night," She said, 'other than my own,' she mentally added sadly. "What do you mean?" Tabitha asked. The girl now wearing gothic clothing of a Fishnet long-sleeve over a black spaghetti- strap tank top with a black short skirt and "witches" shoes; turned to her. "My mom taught me how to detect aura's and follow them, I can even read when people are happy and sad, and how they are, if there good spirited or evil spirited," She said. "Mystique is gray, that's very rare, that means she can be very nice, or very mean," She said. "Got that right," Lance said under his breath. "Well, whatever affected her, think it was important?" Asked DJ. "Naah, can't be that important," Freddy said. "I dunno yo, it might be, maybe she's ill," Toad said. "I wouldn't be complaining," Lance said. "Hey, maybe she is a bitch, but we can some respect right?" DJ asked.
Just then the door burst open and Mystique came in. "Alright you little maggots, we have work to do, I got in contact with my most reliable source last night, and tomorrow we're going to attack the Xavier institute, some reliable sources say all our enemies will be there to be crushed at once," Mystique said. Just then DJ's eyes seemed to almost glow. "I. I. I have to go," He said seriously and started to walk out. "Hey, what?" Fred asked seeming confused. "You're not going anywhere," Mystique snarled. DJ shoved her out of the way and walked out. No one in the Brotherhood did that to Mystique. She looked shocked and so did the rest of the hood. "Don't get any ideas," Mystique snarled to the remaining members.
"So, anyone wanna go get a drink or something? I got a fake," Lance said. "No, just some smokes are good," Neo said. "Oh come on, we always get plastered at the brotherhood house," Fred said. "No worries, we always have a good time," Tabitha assured. Mystique just rolled her eyes and left. "So, wanna go or what?" Toad asked. "Sure, the wings. don't let you have many friends," Neo said. "It's all good, mutant is a mutant, we don't care either way, as long as you're with us," Lance said with a grin.
2 hours later in a park with an excessive amount of alcohol consumed,
"You know what? You guys are great, I haven't really had many friends before," Neo said with the slang of having 4 beers in her voice. "Don't mention it! You should have seen Toad and Fred. I'm the only guy who actually had a social life before the hood," Lance said with an also slurred voice. "You two know what? I think that the moon is brighter than the sun, it just seems so much. so much, BIGGER!" Tabitha said, she'd drank the most out of them and Toad was smoking something in the corner as she said this, it was not a cigarette either. "We better get back, the blue bitch will be back tomorrow and she's gonna have us do stuff," Fred said. The Brotherhood stumbled to Lance's jeep. "You sure we should drive?" Neo asked. "I will, I'm not drunk! You all have no stomach for alcohol compared to the Blob!" Freddy said with a big grin. "Rub it in why don't ya?" Lance said and sat in the back as the jeep drove off. Neo fell asleep in the back, plagued by nightmares of her recent actions; she had been very good at ignoring what she had done in her conscious, but not in her subconscious. "Hey guys, Neo's freaking out," Lance said as she started to cry in her sleep and thrash in the back of the jeep. "Shit, we didn't do any drugs," Toad said. "It's a nightmare I bet," Fred said. "What you mean?" Tabitha asked. "I overheard Mystique, I think she killed some people," The Blob said. "Oh," Everyone said in reply. The next to pass out of course was Tabitha, and Toad just sat back casually, completely baked waiting to arrive home, and awaiting what the next day would bring.

I also knew I said I would have 2 characters join the BH, but I'm going to have to do the other after some other stuff, it was too hard to get it all done in one chapter and make it look good.
This is a small chapter because the next one is going to be huge, massive changes occur which is one reason why this is called 'A Dark Future'. Will New York survive the battle that is to come? Fate seems to be guiding 3 people towards a conflict there, what will happen?
The next chapter will be separated into 5 parts in the end, and I hope its good enough, I've got some kick ass plans for the Hellfire Club after that. I've got some ideas for Sinister and the Marauders, but nothing is confirmed yet. To put it lightly, next chapter you'll see some serious shit go down, and cause even more serious shit to go down.
BTW, to make up for the shortness of this chapter, and believe me it will, the next chapter is about, 10-11 pages typed on word. so, about 5000-6000 words, keep that in mind.
DJ 'Zero' McCoy belong to Hybrid Omega, and Michael 'Specter' Raynor belongs to Emerald Knight1. Neona 'Pixie' Shields belongs to PyroRockerGrl. I thank everyone who has submitted a character to me and I hope I will be able to use as many as possible.
