Meet the Warriors!
To Wizard1: *looks out window* Okay, they're gone. Jubes is still here. She ain't leaving until Razor comes out and takes her out on a date now. (Razor: DON'T LET HER IN!!!! AND TELL HER I CAN STILL FLY OUTTA HERE!!!!) *Looks out window. A grinning Jubilee holds up a ground-to-air net launcher* Um Razor… *Razor: *peeks out window* BULL$%&#!!!!! NO WAY!!!!* Wizard, I had Paul help you out. Can you think of a way to help me out here? I wouldn't be surprised if John does run into a Ninja Turtle. In fact, I have an idea…
To Metal Dragon1: Yeah, I guess the song would be a bit much for Kid Razor. When is the next chapter of "Take the Long Way Home" coming up? I want to see the Kid Razor/New Mutants team-up. I can imagine it now, man! I want to see it!
To Red Witch: Yeah. Well actually, Pyro's got to end up in trouble! Here's more madness for you! Enjoy! Sorry Al, Kid Razor doesn't like Disney Movies. Well, except Great Mouse Detective.
Raliena: Paul can't give if John doesn't want to receive.
Disclaimer: I also don't own the character that makes an appearance here.
It's Profile Time Again! *Crowd hoots, hollers, cheers, claps, screams, and chants* This time, we take a look at a mutant whose talents with speed are as great as his ego: The one and only, the self-proclaimed Great Quicksilver!
Quicksilver
Real Name: Pietro Maximoff (Uses mother's name)
Class: Mutant
Allegiance: Misfits (East Coast Team), formerly Brotherhood of Mutants, formerly Acolytes
Powers: Pietro's mind and body, thanks to his mutation, is designed to move and work at superhuman speeds. His metabolism, skin, and muscles are adapted for high-speed movement. His legs are superhumanly strong, as part of his mutation for running. His reaction time is around five times that of a normal human, and he can process information at a level to match his speed.
Pietro has been known to use his speed to create gusts of wind and tornadoes (Unlike his West Coast Misfit counterpart Terrell Mason/Velocity, Pietro cannot control wind). He also has been known to use his speed in attacking, pelting enemies with an array of super-fast punches and kicks. Since training as an East Coast Misfit, Pietro's top speed has grown to almost 260 mph!
Bio: Pietro and his twin sister Wanda, aka the Scarlet Witch, are daughters of the genetic terrorist known as Magneto and a mysterious woman who is known to have the name of Maximoff (The twins take their mother's name). It's unknown what happened to her.
When Pietro was a child, Wanda was shipped off to an insane asylum, thanks to his secret experimentation screwing her latent hex powers. Not much else is known about Pietro's early life, except the fact that he lived in New York, where he engaged in a rivalry with former X-Man Evan Daniels, codenamed Spyke. When his mutant powers of speed emerged, he joined the Brotherhood of Mutants.
He was teamed up with Lance Alvers/Avalanche, Todd Tolensky/Toad, and Fred Dukes/Blob. His egomania and vanity caused him to be distanced from the other three. In the Brotherhood, Pietro became involved in a feud with the X-Men, which continued on with Wanda joining the team. During the first Sentinel attack, Pietro betrayed his teammates to join the Acolytes, an action that still miffs his former Brotherhood, now fellow Misfits. During a battle in Asteroid M, Pietro came to his senses and pleaded Magneto to stop his attack. Magneto refused, and Pietro turned his back on him. He ended up in the care of GI Joe and became of the original members of the Misfits, still serving through numerous roster expansions, and the formation of the West Coast team.
Note: Pietro is very vain, and a big egomaniac.

(The New York Alley)
"Yipe!" Pyro yelped as he saw a shell. "PREPARE TO FRY, DR. REPTILE!"
"Whoa, dude!" The shell turned to reveal a half-man, half-turtle. He had a belt with two pairs of nunchucks hooked on it. He was clad in an orange eyemask, as well as orange kneepads, elbow pads and wristbands. He appeared to be around 15 years of age. He was carrying several boxes of pizzas. "Don't fry me, dude!"
"Who are you?" John wondered.
"Oh, my name's Michelangelo. But everyone calls me Mike." The turtle-man grinned.
"St. John Allerdyce. They call me Pyro." John grinned.
"Nice to meet you Pyro." Mike grinned.
"You a mutant, like me?" John asked. Mike shook his head.
"Not exactly. Oh, the pizza's getting cold. Gotta go!" Mike opened up the manhole.
"Wait! Have you seen a guy called Dr. Reptile? He looks kinda like you, only bigger, and meaner, with iguana tail and croc jaws?" John asked. Mike nodded.
"Nope. None of my brothers look like that. Sorry. Hope you find him." Mike jumped down the manhole.
"So do I." John grinned. "Then my Fire Angel will adore me!" He cackled as Mike closed the manhole. John ran off down the alley. Mike peeked up.
"Hey, he was that dude from the Misfits! Awesome! Wait till Leo, Don, and Raph hear about this! I met a famous dude!" He laughed. John ran down the alley until he heard a snarl.
"I don't know how you found me, but you do realize that I will have to kill you?" Dr. Reptile warned. He was more of an intellectual by nature, but his new body also gave him feral instincts. Pyro gulped and shuddered for a second, but he quickly swallowed his fear and put on his game face.
"Hey mate, you ever wondered how fast a gecko fries on the barbie? Even faster than a shrimp, mate! WHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!" Pyro cackled like the madman he was, firing flames at Dr. Reptile.
"Yipe!" The mutated scientist yelped and jumped on the wall. He used a power to stick to walls, a talent inherited from gecko DNA, to amble on the wall, trying to avoid a cackling Pyro's flame. "You think some flames can stop me boy YEEOWWWWWAHOOOOO WHOA!!!" A flame leapt out in front of him and formed a big scary face. Dr. Reptile snarled and leapt, trying to tackle the pyrokinetic.
"Yipe!" John rolled out of the way. As Dr. Reptile landed, John used a sweep kick to knock Dr. Reptile off his feet. He then surrounded he reptilian man-creature with a ring of flames. "WHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!! I BEAT YOU!!! YEAH!!!! Now Angelica will love me, baby! Yeah! Aaaaaaow! Wow!" John grinned madly. "I am in the mood for fried turtle." Pyro grinned madly as Dr. Reptile went back up to his feet. The scientist snarled.
"You think flames can stop me, you little brat HEY!!!" The former doctor took a step towards Pyro, but the Australian made the flames erupt, causing him to stand back.
"Take a step and get roasted, turtle boy!" John cackled insanely. He then heard noises.
"John? JOHN?! We heard your cackle and the sound of flames! What's going on?!" Lance's voice was heard.
"Huh?" John turned around and his concentration lapsed. Dr. Reptile leapt out, grabbed the weather machine, and ran away. "What? HEY!!!!" Lance and Dwayne rolled up to him, Dwayne on his skateboard, and Lance on some earth. "Oh thanks guys! I had that bloody lizard man and you guys caused me to lose him! Now Angelica will hate me!"
"Pyro, she already thinks you're nuts. Don't worry about it." Lance sighed.
"Hey!"
Well, looks like John's plan didn't quite exactly work out the way he hoped. Who was the turtle man? What is Dr. Reptile up to? Can he be stopped? Can the combined Misfits and New Warriors save the day? Find out in the next chapter! Suggestions needed badly!
