Christmas Chaos!
To Kage-robot-of-darkness: Perhaps. Keep on reading!
To torque: Virus made more than one modification to Mimic. Speaking of Virus, you wish to know more about him, huh? Well, he's a British mutant who made his debut in "Airtight's Creation". He originally had the power to enter and possess any electronic device, hence his codename of Virus. In "Hollywood Hijinks", he revealed his real name: Vincent James. In that story, his mutation grew, also blessing him with an inventing power like Forge's. It's unknown why he has a thing for Althea, but he's obsessed with her, and he dreams of winning her. He believes the only way to make Althea love him is to kill Todd Tolensky.
To Red Witch: Tell Althea she gets to pound Virus.
To Wizard1: I have seen the Honeymooners. Tigra isn't really an airhead. It's a possibility that the same accident that made Greer Nelson into Tigra also affected her brain. (Iceman: WHERE IS WIZARD1?!?! HE GONNA DIE!!!!)
To Sparky Genocide: I certainly see where'd you get that idea.
To Raliena: Alright! Glad to hear from you again! Keep on reading!

The combined forces of the X-Men, Misfits, and Avengers were great. Together, they were able to thwart Mojo, stop a batch of evil mutated turkeys, even go ten rounds with an evil dragon. However, even they seemed to be powerless against the bio-droid known as the Mimic. With a seemingly never-ending capacity, Mimic was able to copy the powers of all the heroes.
"AAAAAGGGGGHHHHHH!!!!!" Rogue screamed as she went down, thanks to Mimic using her own powers on her! Virus, the mutant Dreadnok who used the speakerbox mounted on Mimic's shoulder to interface the robot, laughed. Virus had the powers of invention and the ability to physically possess electronic devices. However, the Mimic contained DNA as well as microchips, making it very difficult for him to possess and take control of the bio- droid. Virus created the speakerbox device to help him control the robot, and to speak, considering the fact that the Mimic had no vocal chords or anything that'll allow him to talk.
"Go ahead! Keep trying to beat me!" Virus cackled as he called upon John's pyrokinesis to turn John's flame blasts back against him, then smacked Thor with a hammer just like the one belonging to the Thunder God. "I got all your powers, knowledge, and abilities! I am unstoppable as the Mimic!"
"Ace!" Trinity floated to Ace, Quinn carrying five metal headbands. Wildstar was sprawled out on a tree. "Remember those friends of yours?"
"Toshi, Alison, Proudstar, and Kyle. Yeah." Ace nodded as he got up.
"I think we'll need their help." Brittany said. "These collars should be able to prevent the Mimic from copying their powers."
"I dunno." Ace took the collars. "I'll have to call in my favor towards Sunfire and Alison never really used her powers to fight. Proudstar and Kyle would gladly jump in though." He thought about it for a second. "Alright. I'll see what I can do." He heard a scream as Banshee was blasted by Mimic's sonic blasts. "I just hope they can keep Mimic and Virus busy for a while." Ace leapt to his car, and sped down the road. He quickly punched in the first stop on his trip. "Tokyo-a-go-go, baby!" Using Trinity's modifications, Ace hit 88 mph, and he and his car disappeared in a flash of blue light.
"Where'd Ace go YIPE!!!" Theresa screamed at Trinity. She ducked when her father nearly flew into her, disoriented.
"Sorry, honey." Sean groaned, clutching his head.

(Tokyo, Japan)
Ace stood on the top of a skyscraper in Tokyo, his car right behind him.
"C'mon, Toshi. Where the yes!" Ace whooped as he saw what looked like a bullet made of flames in the sky. "Toshi! TOSHIIIIIIIII!!! HEY!!!! DUDE!!!!!" The Solar Samurai, known as Sunfire, heard the calls. He saw Ace jump up and down, flailing his arms up and down rather comically, screaming. The teenage Japanese hero grumbled and cursed in his native tongue.
{Of all people, why this gaijin?} Sunfire growled as he flew towards Ace. He landed on the skyscraper, his red cat-like half-mask not concealing the anger in his eyes and jaw. "Why are you here, Wildstar?"
"Good to see you again, my friend." Ace grinned.
"We are not friends, American. We were merely allies." Toshi grumbled. "Our alliance ended when we defeated that cyber-ninja."
"Don't you remember?" Ace smirked, crossing his arms, leaning back against his car. "I saved your life. Your honor dictates that you owe me a favor." Ace laughed. Sunfire growled. "I need your help." Ace knew that no matter how hot-tempered Japan's National Hero was, he always stuck to his honor. The Japanese teen gave up with a sigh. He took off his mask, revealing his teenage face. Ace noticed that Toshi had let his short black hair grow out a little bit. "You let your hair grow out a bit. Looks good."
"And I suppose you have come to collect." The Japanese teen groaned.
"Yeah." Ace replied. "I need your help." Ace explained the whole Mimic thing. Toshi mulled it over for a second.
"Fine. I will help you. But after this, we are even." Sunfire warned. "After this, never ask for my help again."
"Fine." Ace shrugged. "Here." He threw a headband to Toshi. Sunfire looked at the device in a puzzled manner. "Put it on under your mask. It'll prevent Mimic from copying your powers." He opened up his car door. "Come on in to Ace's magic car. I gotta pick up a couple more friends of mine."

(Starlight Club, Los Angeles, California)
A blond teenage girl sat in a dressing room of the club. Her hair was like Farrah Fawcett, and she was clad in a white V-neck jumpsuit that left her shoulders and arms bare. Her jumpsuit had blue stripes at the sides, and she had painted blue shapes around her eyes. Around her neck was a thin gold necklace. A man peeked into the room.
"Miss Blaire, there are two guys in funny costumes here to see you. Should I let them in?" The girl turned around.
"What do they look like?" She asked.
"One's Wildstar, the other's this kid in a Japanese flag costume." The man replied.
"They're okay." Alison Blaire waved. "Let them in, please." The man ushered Wildstar and Sunfire in. He closed the door. "Ace! Hi!" She ran to Ace and hugged him. She smiled at Toshi. "You must be Toshiro Yashida. I'm Alison Blaire. Ace has told me about you." Alison bowed. Toshi's masked face was like stone, but he bowed respectfully.
"Ali, I need some help." Ace said. He told Alison the Mimic story. Alison nodded.
"I dunno." She said. "I never really used my powers to actually fight any bad guys. Just as part of my act."
"Sunfire and I are warriors." Ace reminded. "You can keep him blinded. Here, put this on." Ace handed Alison a headband. "This'll prevent Mimic from copying you."
"I'll help any way I can." Alison said. She then realized something. "Can I bring a friend? He's a mutant, too. I met him a week ago. His powers will be a big help."

(Arizona)
A large, muscular 17-year-old Apache boy sat cross-legged in front of a fire. Behind him was a mesa. He was clad in a blue costume with a red bird- like design on the chest and legs. He had a gold belt with a gold thunderbird-shaped buckle around his waist, and gold bands around his wrist. His costume had short sleeves with red fringe at the sleeve ends, and blue boots with red fringe on them. His costume was completed by a red eyemask, a red headband with two white-and-red feathers attached to the back, and a small hatchet with feathers like the one on his headband attached to it. The boy smiled.
"The Great Spirit told me you would be here." He said with a smile as he got up and opened his masked eyes. Ace, Alison, Toshi, and a fourth person approached him. The fourth person was a sleek-bodied African-American teen with a big grin, and cornrow braids that reached down to just between his shoulders. He was clad in a black hig-collared bodysuit with silver forearm bands, a silver lightning bolt on the chest, and silver boots. His costume was completed by a backward black baseball cap. "Good to meet you again, Ace."
"John Proudstar, this is Toshi Yashida, Alison Blaire, and...uhm..." Ace tried to remember the name of the black teen.
"Terrell Mason." The African-American teen grinned, shaking John's hand. "I got speed, brother!"
"Terry's a friend of mine." Alison explained. "He's got superhuman speed." (A/N: I could use some ideas for Terrell's codename)
"Ace mentioned you to me." Proudstar nodded. "Why have you returned to Arizona, Ace?"
"Well, it's like this..." Ace explained the Mimic thing to the Apache. "I hope your strength and endurance will be a help."
"A warrior never backs down from a challenge." The Apache smiled. "I shall join you."
"Alright!" Ace whooped. "Here, you'll need this to protect yourself from Mimic's powers." Ace gave Proudstar a metal headband. John put it on under his red headband. "Now for one last stop."

(Boston, Massachusetts)
"HAHA!!! YEAH!!! IF YA SMELL-LA-LA-LA-LA-LA-LA-LA-LA-LOWWWWW!!!!!!! WHAT THE THUNDERBOLT...IS COOKIN'!" A Boston-accented voice hooted happily. It belonged to a 13-year old boy with blue eyes and wild brown collar-length hair. He was clad in a blue bodysuit with yellow lightning bolts on the legs, around the waist, and one on the chest. His boots were yellow, and he wore a black leather jacket with blue sleeves. The sleeves had a yellow lightning-bolt stripe down the sides. His costume was completed by a pair of blue Bret Hart-esque shades on his head, and black biker gloves. His name was Kyle Wildfire. He was Jake's younger brother, and a mutant. His powers of electro-generation, flight and electrokinesis earned him the codename Thunderbolt. After defeating the Hellions, Kyle made a costume and decided to become Boston's first superhero, modeling his Thunderbolt persona after his favorite wrestler, the Rock. After busting a bad guy, Kyle decided to hit the local arcade, playing a WrestleMania game. "Alright! I busted up a gang, and now I whooped Chris Jericho! Alright! This day is gonna be great! Yesssss! Now I'm comin' after you, Orton!"
"Hey Kyle!" A familiar voice called. Kyle turned, and saw Ace and his friends at the arcade entrance. "Ace Starr? Do the Thunderbolt's eyes dare deceive him?"
"Hey Kyle." Ace grinned. "These are the guys I told you about: Toshi, John Proudstar, Alison, and that's her friend Terrell."
"Call me Terry, little man." The African-American teen grinned.
"I'm Kyle Wildfire, third generation of the Wildfire Wrestling Dynasty. They call me Thunderbolt." He grinned. "I'm the man!"
"Uh-huh." Toshi groaned.
"Listen up, Kyle." Ace told Thunderbolt. Wildstar explained the Mimic crisis, and gave him the last headband to wear.
"Big bro in trouble? I'm there! Let the butt-whomping begin!" Kyle hollered.
"Hey kid, shaddap!" The arcade owner snapped.
Well, looks like Ace Starr has assembled himself quite a bunch of mutants to help! Can they defeat Mimic? Will a new team be formed? How will the X- Men, Avengers, and Misfits react? Find out in the next exciting chapter! Suggestions needed badly!
