Omega Attack!
To Descendent: I'm glad you do like the chapter! Perhaps Betsy will find a way to make herself known to Mike. I'm glad I'm doing Omega justice. I'm not the best when it comes to personalities. Let's find out about Betsy shall we? BTW, I'm trying to find a way to bring the Brotherhood into the story. Any thoughts?
To Wizard1: Well, Selene is evil, arrogant, and has no regard for human life. What do you expect? Oh, I think Omega will want to do to her what he did to Vargas when he finds out. I don't think Ronnie will automatically go to Betsy. Ronnie doesn't really know Omega.
To Metal Dragon1: Sorry, no Coyote man. I want to bring the Brotherhood in, but I really don't know how I can get them to Cleveland.
In the last issue of "Omega Attack": Selene made her move: She appeared to Omega and talked to him, saying that she will restore Betsy Braddock to life if he got her Kid Razor's guitar. Using a combination of her hypnotic powers and her playing on Mike's wish to have Betsy back like a fiddle, Selene convinced Mike to go after the Kid of Rock 'n' Roll. However, Omega doesn't realize that if he does get Selene the guitar, she'll kill him! Now with a new enemy on the prowl, Kid Razor is in trouble! Can he convince Omega to move on and overcome Selene's control, or will Razor end up sharing the same fate as Vargas, the man who killed Psylocke in the first place? Stay tuned, and find out!

(The Astral Plane)
The Astral Plane had no true form. It was an unknown, infinite expanse, whose look was determined by those in it. One of those ghosts was the legendary glam rocker known as Ronnie Rocker. Ronnie was a glam legend of the 70s and 80s, whose body died in a car accident over a decade ago. An amateur magician, Ronnie got his soul trapped in a guitar, in the process transforming it into a conduit to access the mystical energy known as the Power of Rock. A decade later, a shy teenage guitarist named Robert Parkins found the guitar and bought it at a pawn shop. When he played it, he was transformed into a cocky, quick-tongued warrior who became known as Kid Razor, defender of Cleveland. Ronnie was along for the ride, helping Razor learn control and become one with Bobby. However, shortly afterward, Selene made her appearance, asking for the guitar. When Razor refused, Ronnie was trapped in a pendant Selene now wears around her neck. But despite this, Ronnie was able to access the Plane, and he's hung around here ever since. Ronnie was a handsome man with long blond hair, and his eyes were decorated by blue and sea green mascara. He was clad in a silver V-neck jumpsuit with sea green and blue lightning bolts at the shoulders and the sides of the legs. His boots were silver as well. He also had sea green and blue wristbands. Ronnie was looking around for any way to get out and warn Bobby of Selene's plan until he noticed something.
"Hello…" Ronnie noticed a confused-looking purple-haired Asian teenage girl clad in a purple-and-blue ninja-style leather/spandex fighter suit. She also had two short swords crossing her back.
"Where in the bloody world am I? I remember fighting Vargas and…" She noticed Ronnie, who smiled.
"Hello." Ronnie waved. She yelped and quickly unsheathed her swords.
"Who are you?! Where am I?! Answer me!" She screamed angrily.
"Easy! Easy!" Ronnie exclaimed. "My name is Ronnie Rocker. This is the Astral Plane. Here, time and space is all infinite."
"Astral Plane?" She looked down at herself and noticed she was semi-transparent. "EEK!!! What happened?! I'm a ghost!"
"Yeah, you're dead. Like me, technically." Ronnie shrugged. "What's the last thing you remember?"
"I remember a sword going through me back." The girl replied. She sheathed her swords. "By the way, me name's Betsy Braddock. I guess I'm stuck here, huh?" Ronnie nodded. "What can I do now?"
"Anything you want. That's the Plane for you. You can relive your past, do things you've always dreamed. The only limit is your imagination." Betsy blinked and concentrated. The image of Mike Nagrite appeared. Ronnie gasped in shock.
"That's Omega!" Ronnie blinked. Betsy raised an eyebrow.
"Yeah, he's…he was me boyfriend."
"Oh my God! Betsy, you've got to help me! He's in dire trouble! It's a long story!" Ronnie said in a panic. Betsy arched a purple eyebrow.
"You said time had no meaning here." Betsy reminded. "Go on."
"Okay, here goes…" Ronnie explained everything. He explained himself and Kid Razor. He explained about Selene, and Omega's situation. "…He wanted you back so badly, that sick heartless witch is now using him to get Razor's guitar. If Selene gets her twisted paws on Razor's guitar, she will be invincible!"
"Oh me bloody God." Betsy said in shock. "If that woman's really got me Mikey under her control then…"
"Right. Mike might unknowingly end up killing innocent people! And Omega is one tough mutant!" Ronnie sighed. "I can't get out unless that pendant is destroyed. Selene's magic has seen to that. However, you may be able to for a while." Ronnie and Betsy floated off in search of a way out.

(Cleveland, Ohio)
"Goodbye, Husky-Tusky!" Razor teased. "Van Halen HAMMER!!!!" The superhuman rocker nailed Tusk with his Van Halen Hammer, knocking the screaming mutant out cold. As soon as the cops carted him away, Razor stood on the street, looking at the damage this battle caused. He was clad in red HBK-esque tights with black-and-white zebra-print razor blades all over them and "Rock 'n' Roll" on the back. He had on an old Metallica shirt and a sleeveless red leather jacket with patches of black-and-white zebra print on the shoulders, black-and-white zebra-print biker gloves, and over them, red HBK-style wristcuffs with red fringe and a black-and-white razor blade on each one. His Ultimate Warrior-esque red face paint was decorated with patches of black-and-white zebra-print. His guitar was a red Stratocaster with a black-and-white zebra-print fretboard.
"Oh yeah, insurance rates in this part of town are definitely going up through the roof after this one!" Razor joked with a laugh. He waved at a fan who yelled out that he ruled. Now to go back to the dorm and rest. Razor got ready to take off until…
WHITISH!!!
"AAAAGH!!!!" Razor hollered as he felt what he thought was a whip hit his shoulder. He felt his left shoulder. His shirt and was torn. His bare fingertips were crimson with blood. "What?" His superhuman hearing picked up another whip coming toward him. Razor dodged and turned around. "Omega!" Omega stood before Razor, his eyes slightly glowing red, an intense look on his face. His tentacles whirled around menacingly.
"Just hand over the guitar Razor, and you won't be hurt. Don't force me to hurt you." Omega snarled.
Oh no! Man, Razor's in big trouble now! Can he face Omega without hurting him? Can Betsy find a way out of the Astral Plane? What is Selene up to with the Elemental Star? Find out in the next chapter! Suggestions needed badly!
