Omega Attack!
To Wizard1: Well, I highly doubt Selene needs a plane. She is a magic user, after all. In the Legacy Virus novel trilogy, I own all three books; She's able to project an astral form from New York all the way to Hong Kong! So, she can send her astral self to Cleveland no problem. Oh, and BTW, Jubilee's looking for you, and she's packing a chainsaw.
To Red Witch: Well, I hope to put some more Polanski torture in. Here's some more for you.
To Descendent: Thanks for the tips. I can't help that.
To Jaina12: Will the rest of the Brotherhood show up? Well, we'll see. I tend to make up stories as I go along, so who knows.
To DemonRogue13: Glad you like the story so far! Here's some more madness for you.

(Hellfire Club catacombs, New York)
Selene looked at an artifact she had someone 'obtain' for her a while back with a smile on her face. The artifact appeared to be made from five crystals in the shapes of two small pyramids glued together at the base, all connected together to form a five-pointed star. One was red, a second was yellow, a third was blue, a fourth was black, and a fifth was green. The star was about the size of a small Frisbee.
"The Elemental Star…" Selene smiled as she looked at the jewel. "An old gem indeed. I remember when Merlin first created this gem to help the five surviving Knights of the Round Table rescue King Arthur and Queen Guinevere. A long time ago indeed." It was believed that each crystal that made up the star gave a chosen wielder a superhuman power and mastery over an element. "After all those centuries, I have you again. Your power shall be useful to me indeed." Selene smiled as her plan came to fruition in her mind. "Once I find the next ones intended to use this power, I can put them into my service and if Omega fails, I can use them to get Razor's guitar." She laughed with delight at the thought of enslavement of the poor souls. And somewhere else in the building, a minor demon burped.

(Cleveland, Ohio)
Omega stood on a street corner in an old, and almost completely abandoned, section of Cleveland. He was staring at an old theater, watching a letter get ready to fall off the marquee. He sighed as memories started playing in his head. Memories of Betsy. All the time they were together in the Brotherhood and X-Factor. It seemed so long ago.
"Hey Squid." A familiar voice greeted. Omega turned and saw the Fearless Kid Razor, the Juke Box Avenger, leaning on a lamppost, with his arms crossed, and trademark smirk on his face.
"Don't call me Squid, Razor." Omega warned. "Leave me alone."
"Not many people live in this part of Cleveland. They haven't lived here for years." Razor shrugged. "You don't look like the type that live here. You look like the type that comes around parts of town like this to brood. So, whatcha broodin' about?" Omega grumbled.
"None of your business. I've had to deal with these crazy guys who call themselves the Rock 'n' Roll Cavaliers."
"Ah, yes. My Cavaliers. They're a good bunch. A little nuts, but a good bunch. They got a way with people." Razor grinned.
"You know, Kid of Rock 'n' Roll, I know this girl back in Bayville. Her name's Jubilation Lee. You'd love her. She's the biggest Kid Razor fan you'd ever meet! Wears all your t-shirts, listens to all your music, has all your merchandise."
"Wait, she's the mysterious Jubilee? The one who sends the Kid of Rock all those love letters?" Razor arched a blond eyebrow. He then shuddered. "That chick's a psycho!"
"Yup." Omega nodded. "Again Razor, what's up?"
"Well, the Kid of Rock just smacked Dr. Reptile up and down Cleveland, and he decided to go on patrol when he noticed ya." Razor smirked. Razor was battling Dr. Reptile, a scientist who was mutated into a reptile man-monster, complete with near-indestructible shell, iguana tail, superhuman strength, amphibious respiratory system, and high durability.
"I'm just remembering." Omega replied. "Old times. Ever hear of the Brotherhood of Mutants." Razor scrunched his nose.
"Not really. But then again, Cleveland does have a big mutant population. Come to think of it, the Kid of Rock has heard small rumors here and there whenever he flies around the Yeager district." Omega blinked. "The Yeager district. Little Mutant-town. A lot of Cleveland's mutants live there. Cleveland's a very mutant-friendly place."
"That cop Polanski told me earlier. Anyway, I was a member. But I quit." Omega said.
"Why?" Razor asked. "I heard that that Magneto dude was a madman. A real psycho. I could take him out, no prob!" Razor laughed cockily.
Wanda would kill you if she heard you say that. Omega smirked. "That wasn't exactly the reason why I quit. I…lost something important to me."
"A girl." Razor nodded. Omega glared. "The Kid of Rock's not stupid, Omega. Whenever a guy talks about losing something like that, it's a girl." Omega stalked off. "What's gotten you so mad?"
"Back off, Kid Razor! Why don't you go be Mr. Flash-and-Flare-Loudmouth, like you usually do! I don't like people invading my business!" He snapped angrily.
"Hey, I didn't need to invade anything, pal! The Kid of Rock can tell these things!" Razor snapped. "Let it go, man. It'll eat you alive. Just let it go. Let her go." With a roar, Omega lashed out at Razor with his tentacles. However, he didn't count on Razor's superior ability to react. He easily dodged the tentacles with a couple flips.
"She was my life, Kid Razor! You'd never understand!" Omega snarled and stomped away angrily. Razor smirked.
"Omega, I got a bad feeling about you." He then heard a scream. Razor sighed as he took to the air. Omega watched, then continued on his way, grumbling.
"Stupid loudmouth rocker, thinking he can just butt in…" He grumbled and cursed as he walked into an alley.
"Kid Razor does have a point." A voice said. Omega turned around and he blinked in confusion.
Well, things are about to heat up? Who was the voice that talked to Omega? What is Razor going to do? Find out in the next chapter! Suggestions needed badly!
