Battle in Britain!

To Metal Dragon1: Oops! Sorry! I guess I got you guys mixed up. Fat Bastard a mutant with the power to make people retch, huh? Perhaps he may be. Yeah, maybe Virus would get himself beaten up a bit first. I think hits to the head may make him even more psycho than he already is. BTW, read the new chapter of "Take the Long Way Home". I liked it. Hey, what do you have planned next in your story? Hope you like this new chapter!

To Raliena: Wow. You know a girl like Virus. That's...scary. Very, very very scary. Hope you like this new chapter I whipped up for you!

To Sparky Genocide: Yeah, I thought it'd be funny to see Fat Bastard come on to the Baroness. Crikey! You mean you couldn't figure out why I gave Leathersuit the real name of Steve?! Actually, I have never heard of that show the Young Ones. I do find it funny a character is a guy named Vivian. I do remember that scene from "The Spy Who Shagged Me". Will the Misfits run into Grace Bros. and Hyacinth? Well, we'll see. Who knows? I tend to make up my stories as I go along, so I never know what I'll do next. Hope you like this new chapter, fresh from the laptop!

To Red Witch: Well, knowing Cobra Commander and Dr. Evil, you can bet there will be more screaming matches. I read "A Pair of Angels". Nice work. I still think you should organize a second team of Misfits like I did. And I still did beat you to Evo-tizing Sunfire! No one ever thought of Evo-tizing him! Anyway, enjoy this new chapter I whipped up! Do you suppose I could use Lina in a future story?

To Wizard1: Oh, Cobra Commander and Dr. Evil will meet face-to-face, and it will not be pretty. Flower-power camouflage. Yeah, well keep in mind that the van was being painted by a bunch of military-trained loons, their mutant charges, and an English secret agent who was a Sixties throwback!

It's Profile Time again! This time, let's look at the mutant who helped bring together the West Coast Misfits, the wild child of rock 'n' roll, the wondrous Wildstar!

Wildstar

Real Name: Ace Starr

Allegiance: Misfits (West Coast team)

Hair: Brown with black tips (Due to his lion-based mutation, his hair is like a lion's mane)

Class: Mutant

Powers: Ace's mutation called upon the King of Beasts, the lion. As a result, Ace has fangs, claws, and a sleek cat-like body. He has enhanced senses, reflexes, agility, strength and speed. He can also fire blue energy beams from his claws, and he has a healing factor as good as Wolverine or X23's. He also can survive high falls because of a cat-like instinct for landing on his feet and hands.

Birthplace: Los Angeles, California

Bio: Ace was born to a stockbroker/ex-rock roadie and an ex-groupie. Ace was delivered in the back of a KISS tour bus! He grew up in a world of rock 'n' roll. As a kid, he found mutant-tolerant friends and formed a band known as the Ballroom Blitzers, a band that played originals and covered 70s and 80s rock classics. As a teenager, Nick Fury recruited Ace to go undercover as one of Emma Frost's Hellions and spy on the rogue teen mutants. Ace helped Jake Wildfire, the former Hellion, now-"Misfit" codenamed Red Dragon from a sinister personality created as a side effect of his powers known a Draconis. Afterwards, Ace and his family took in X23 and gave her the name Athena. Afterwards, Ace traveled the world for a while, meeting and befriending future West Coast Misfits Sunfire, Dazzler, and Thunderbird. When the Bio-droid called Mimic attacked the X-Men under Virus's control, Ace gathered up these allies and a Compton native known as Velocity. Alongside a visiting Siryn, Wolfsbane, and X23, Ace and his allies defeated the Mimic. The nine mutants decided to form a new team and they became the West Coast Misfits.

Note: Ace Starr is the cousin of East Coast Misfit members Paul and Craig Starr, aka Starchild and Darkstar. He is also a skilled guitarist, saxophonist, and singer. His charms are as powerful as his cousin Paul's, netting the hearts of the Hellions M, Catseye, Roulette, and Tarot, as well as the X-Man Husk.

(The warehouse)

The Joes and the kids sat with the van. Ace and Craig had leaned against it. Most of the kids were halfway asleep. So were the Joes.

"Hey Craig, I got an idea." Ace grinned, nudging his cousin. Craig only mumbled. He was on the verge of falling asleep. "Let's take the van."

"Where are we gonna take the van?" Craig grumbled.

"To drive around. Test it out." Ace grinned.

"No way." Craig groaned.

"C'mon. Please?" Ace begged.

"No."

"Please?"

"No."

"Please?"

"No!"

"I'll drive." Ace offered.

"Okay." Craig shrugged.

"Hey guys, c'mon! We're gonna test drive the van!" Ace grinned, waking up the other Misfits. The Joes had already left to get coffee.

"Coffee. Sweet Coffee." Shipwreck grinned as he walked in.

"Yeah, this assignment's easy." Low Light smiled.

"Just sit around and watch a van." Cover Girl agreed.

"Nothing better." Big Ben laughed.

"I love Starbucks." Austin grinned.

"WHAT THE--?" Bulldog yelled. The five Joes' and secret agent's eyes widened and their jaws dropped as they saw the van pull away.

"THE KIDS!!!!" The Joes exclaimed.

"YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!" The Misfits hooted from the van. The Cheap Trick song "Surrender" played from the van's stereo. The kids all sang along. "Mommy's alright, Daddy's alright/They just seem a little weird/Surrender, Surrender..." The van passed by the London offices of Extensive Enterprises. The kids, during the repainting, didn't cover the military logos. The Joes raced by, screaming at the kids to stop the van. The doorman, an undercover Crimson Guardsman, watched. He held a walkie- talkie to his lips.

"Crimson Siege Blue calling Tomax and Xamot." He whispered.

"Come in." The twins' voices responded.

"The van just passed by."

"Stand by for further instructions." The twins ordered. A man in black with a black hard hat stood at a corner. He talked into a watch.

"Dr. Evil, I found the van."

(Dr. Evil's helicopter, flying over London.)

"Excellent!" Dr. Evil turned off his remote monitor. He and his evil crew were in a black carrier helicopter, bearing the silver "E" logo on the sides.

"We're gonna eat those Misfits!" Fat Bastard crowed.

"You're the cannibal, you big goofball." #2 grumbled.

"Ah hope Ah meet that dark-haired filly again. She went wild over mah sexy body." Fat Bastard laughed. He started singing. "Oh, Ah'm the sexy man..."

"Riiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiight." Dr. Evil sighed.

"Hey Dr. Evil, do Ah get to eat the babies?" Fat Bastard asked. "Och, Ah could eat a big baby right now." He grinned maliciously at Mini-Me.

"Go Fat Bastard." Scott muttered under his breath.

"EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" Mini-Me ran away.

"Come back here!" Fat Bastard chased the clone, but his steps kept shaking the copter.

(Cobra HQ, hidden in a field outside London)

"Tomax and Xamot have told us of the van, Commander. The Joes are following and it's in a bizarre paint job." Destro said.

"I cannot believe I was hit on by an obese Scotsman." The Baroness grumbled. "No wonder he's called Fat Bastard. HE IS ONE!!!"

"No kidding. He visited our offices once..." Tomax and Xamot walked up to the Commander, Baroness, and Destro.

"And he kept blabbering about eating babies." Xamot grumbled.

"Not to mention he kept on..." Tomax started.

"Scaring our secretaries because of his yelling about how sexy he claimed to be!" Xamot growled.

"We nearly punched him out!" Tomax and Xamot threw their fists, accidentally punching each other. "OW!!"

Well, things are going crazy now! What madness will happen next? Who'll get the van? Where will the Misfits take it? What'll the Joes do? What'll happen if Cobra Commander and Dr. Evil meet up again? Find out in the next chapter! Suggestions needed badly!
