An Interrupted Interview
"Okay where are the triplets?" Cover Girl sighed.
"Still chasing Multiple in the modern art section," Hank told her. "We'd better go get them. I'll take Avalanche and Colossus as well. They need to be around people more mature than they are."
Xavier was having a brief chat in front of the cameras with Indy. The X-Men were standing with their new friends Mary Jane and Peter while the Misfits were off looking for something to eat. "So did you get some good shots?" Mary Jane asked.
"Well I think so," Peter said. "I don't think Jamenson would pay very much for them but some head shots of Wilson Fisk and Professor Xavier together might be worth at least something."
"Well I hope they are worth something," Kitty said. "Unless he's anything like your friend Harry."
"I'm afraid in Harry's case he has some reasons not to like people who have powers," Peter Parker sighed. "His father tried out an experimental formula on himself which not only enhanced his strength and intelligence, it made him completely insane."
"Yeah and he got killed during a battle with Spider Man," Mary Jane sighed.
"Who's Spider Man?" Amara asked.
"You're kidding?" Peter raised an eyebrow. "You've never heard of him?"
"Wait…I remember hearing something about this guy," Ray said. "He runs around fighting crime but he has the mutant abilities of a spider."
"You mean there's another mutant running around out there we haven't heard about?" Kitty asked.
"Actually I don't think…" Peter began when a blast interrupted him.
"WHAT THE…?" Kitty gasped when a silver blast streaked by. "That's not Quicksilver is it?"
"No, it's Turbo Jet!" Mary Jane gasped. It was a young black man inside a large silver armor that was whizzing through the museum. "How did he get out of prison?"
"Must be making a withdrawal," Peter groaned. "He has this habit of stealing expensive stuff!"
"Peter the last time he tried to steal that artifact from Harry's corporation!" Mary Jane said. "He must have heard about this exhibit with all the stuff his corporation donated!"
"And he's probably come to get some payback," Peter grumbled as he watched Turbo Jet steal several items as well as scatter the crowds.
"Oh great…." Kitty groaned. "Why does stuff like this have to happen everywhere we go?"
"I know the feeling," Peter groaned.
Next up: a battle in the museum where your friendly neighborhood Spider Man and our mutant buddies meet for the first time. Well the first time in my series anyway.
