St. Patrick's Day Madness
To Wizard1: Oops! Big goof up! I meant to say that Hank was pinching Storm because she wasn't wearing green even though it wasn't St. Patrick's Day. And yes, I want Pietro to sing the Monty Python Lumberjack Song. I did make some suggestions to Red Witch. Here's some more madness for you! WHEN IS CHAPTER FOUR COMING UP?!?!? And more song suggestions:
Low Light: "Double Vision" by Foreigner
Cover Girl: "Girls Just Wanna Have Fun" by Cyndi Lauper
Clutch: "Truckin'" by the Grateful Dead
X-Boys: A re-work of "I Stole Your Love" by Kiss: "He Stole Their Love" (about Starchild)
Hey, why not do what RogueFanKC suggested, and have Dial-Tone, Quick-Kick, Tripwire, Tunnel Rat, and Alpine sing Bob Seger's "Shakedown" while the girls try to kill the boys in the background!
Pyro: "Crazy Train" by Ozzy Osbourne
Jamie: "Photograph" by Def Leppard (I dunno, I thought it's appropriate for him in some odd way)
Beast (Plastered): "High 'n' Dry" by Def Leppard
Sam: "Rocket" by Def Leppard
To Red Witch: Oh, Lepronicus will meet drunken Hank. Happy St. Patty's Day to you!
It's Profile Time again! *crowd hoots and hollers, chanting "Pro-file Time! Pro-file Time!"* We looked at everyone favorite Japanese loner, and now let's take a look at the other resident loner of the West Coast Misfits, everyone's favorite Apache warrior, the fabulous Thunderbird! (A/N: If you listen to blues or rock, you'll get the "fabulous thunderbird" bit. As I said about Sunfire, I slightly altered Thunderbird's back story, and added a dash of imagination to it)
Thunderbird
Real Name: John Proudstar
Class: Mutant
Allegiance: Misfits (West Coast Team)
Powers: John Proudstar has a mutant physiology that provides him with superhuman strength and endurance. After training as a West Coast Misfit, John's also exhibited slight superhuman speed (even though is not as fast as Velocity or Quicksilver), and slight resistance to injury (But unlike the Blob or Red Dragon in his Dragon Mode, John is not truly invulnerable).
Birthplace: Camp Verde Apache Reservation, Arizona
Bio: The son of a decorated retired US Marine, John Proudstar as a kid was always a great athlete. John always thought of himself as a loner, and dreamed of being a great warrior like his ancestors. As a result, he grew bored of reservation life and hoped to someday leave to find adventure.
John's life changed forever on two important occasions. The first was the emergence of his mutant powers. At the age of 16, his strength revealed itself when he wrestled and threw a charging bison with his bare hands to save a little girl. He became a hero for it, but no one knew how John got the strength to do it (At the time, the tribe didn't know or realize John was a mutant, including John himself).
The second occasion was when Ace Starr visited Arizona to check out the mesas. He was traveling around to find some fun after his undercover work within the Hellions ended. He met now-17-year-old John at a mesa, and the two discovered they both had a love for adventure, and they became friends. Ace, as a joke, gave John the codename "Thunderbird" because in his own words, "It sounds Native Americany." When a mad scientist unleashed a genetically-enhanced bear on the reservation that day, Wildstar and Thunderbird joined forces to subdue it. As a gesture of thanks, Ace was made an honorary member of the Apache tribe, and Thunderbird told Ace if his strength was needed, he would be available.
Ace called that favor sometime later, when he asked Proudstar to help him subdue the bio-droid known as the Mimic. John's hatchet destroyed the mutant Dreadnok Virus's speakerbox, a device Virus used to control the Mimic. Soon after, Proudstar became a founding member of the West Coast Misfits alongside Wildstar, X23, Siryn, Thunderbolt, Velocity, Sunfire, Wolfsbane, and Dazzler.
Note: In battle, Proudstar's pride and impetuousness tends to cause him to charge right into the thick of things, which sometimes gets him into big trouble. A loner at heart, Proudstar helped found the West Coast Misfits, hoping to use the team to achieve his dream of becoming a great Apache warrior. He's loyal to his friends and he has a never-say-die attitude. He also has a younger brother named James who recently exhibited powers like John's. James helped his older brother and the other Misfits (both teams) stop a gang during the Misfit Cannonball Run.

(X-Mansion)
"Okay…" Peter Rasputin rigged a ray gun he swiped from Forge's lab into the ceiling. The trigger was tied to a string which was also tied to a doorknob. "When Paul leaves this room, he opens the door, and BLAM he gets blasted!" Colossus grinned.
"Dis had better work." Remy grumbled. Ray was listening at the door.
"Hide! He's coming!" Ray said. The four X-Boys quickly hid in the hall. Paul pulled the door open and walked through, carrying some grocery bags. Jean and Dani were flanking him, also carrying grocery bags.
"Thanks Paul. You're such a sweetie." Jean smiled. Paul grinned.
"No prob." Paul grinned. The laser never activated, causing the X-Boys' jaws to drop as the three went to the kitchen.
"Bull! No way!" Scott screamed. The four ran to the door, and looked outside.
"I don't get it!" Peter scratched his head. "It worked when I tested it!" Ray turned around and saw the laser power up.
"Hoo boy…I knew this was going to happen." He whimpered.
"YEEEEEEEEEEEEOOOOOOOOOOWWWWWWWWWWWCH!!!!!!!!!!!" The X-Boys screamed as the laser zapped them. Paige walked up and saw the charred boys.
"Did you guys mess around with the grill again?" Paige scratched her head.
"Shut. Up. Paige." Peter grumbled.
"I HATE THAT STARCHILD!!!!! I HATE HIM I HATE HIM I HATE HIM I HATE HIM I HATE HIM!!!!!! AAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRGH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" Scott screamed, jumping up and down. Paige blinked.
"You blame Paul for the grill exploding in your faces? Man, you blame Starchild for everything!" Paige shook her head and crossed your arms. "I'm surprised you four haven't blamed Paul for Gigli! By the way, where my little Ace of Hearts?"
I hate that Starchild. And his family isn't much better. Remy grumbled.

(Downtown Bayville)
"WHOA!!!" Ace dodged a magical blast from Lepronicus. The feral rocker grabbed a hubcap. "DIE LEPRECHAUN!!!" He roared, leaping into the air. He pitched the hubcap from behind.
"Huh?" Lepronicus turned around. The hubcap hit him with a CLANG!!! "AAGH!!! ME EYES!!! THAT LITTLE PUNK TRIED TO KILL ME EYEBALLS!!!" He staggered, hitting himself in the eyes. He surrounded himself with a protective magical force field, which saved him from getting shocked by lightning, frozen by ice water, for fried by flames from Kyle, Tommy, and Toshiro. He rubbed his eyes and grinned.
"Ye think ye can touch me, buckos?" He laughed at the pyrokinetic, electrokinetic, and shark-like mutant. "Me forcefield can protect me from anything WHOAOAOAOAOAOAOAOAOAAAAAAAAAAHHHH!!!!!!" Lepronicus struggled to stay on his feet as the ground under him shook. Rictor grinned.
"You forgot me, man!" Rictor grinned, making the ground shake with his sonic waves. "Man, you should never forget your opponents!"
"Especially if they out-number you eleven to ONE!!!!" Thunderbird crowed as he swatted the forcefield hard with a tree. However, Lepronicus wasn't knocked back an inch, making John blink. "What?!"
"Hee hee hee hee! Ye can't stop me bucko!" Lepronicus waved his hand, and a screaming John Proudstar was sent flying through a wall of a jewelry store. Siryn swooped down.
"I don't know what ye have against me and me family, but even ye cannae handle a sonic scream! WAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" Siryn wailed with her sonic scream, but something happened.
"Aw, ye have no idea!" Lepronicus grinned. He chanted a spell, and Siryn found herself using her sonic voice to knock out the other West Coast Misfits!
No no no! I cannae stop meself! NOOOOOOO!!!!!! Siryn mentally wailed as she tried to take control of her mouth, lips, and vocal chords, but to no avail. Lepronicus grinned as he pulled out a small green bottle from his jacket and chanted something. With a scream, Siryn was turned into green energy and flew into the bottle, which he closed with a cork. Lepronicus looked on at the defeated mutants. Ace and X23 were starting to get to their feet, their healing factors allowing them to recover quickly. Lepronicus grinned.
"Thank ye for the entertainment." He bowed. "I got one. Now I just gotta get the other Cassidy, and me revenge will be complete! Ta-ta!" He teleported away.
"Awwwwww $%#&!!!!" X23 growled, throwing back her mask angrily. "Now what?" Ace sighed.
"I guess we have to warn Sean. And it'll not be pretty." Ace looked back in the direction of the Mansion.
Well, things have gone bad! What madness will happen next? Will Lepronicus get his slimy claws on the Banshee? What'll he do to Siryn? Can our heroes stop him? Will the X-Boys ever be able to successfully get the Starchild once and for all? Find out in the next chapter! Suggestions needed badly!
