Omega Attack!
To Descendent: Well, I wouldn't be surprised if the Brotherhood find out about the fight between Kid Razor and Omega. However, I think they'd try to find out what the heck is going on first!
To Metal Dragon1: Yeah, it was an accident, actually. Well, I think Betsy will try and find a way to calm Omega and let him know he needs to move on. Keep in mind, Omega's actions now are a combination of Selene's hypnosis and his own desire to have Betsy back.
To DemonRogue13: Nice to hear from you and glad you liked the chapter! Here's some more for you! Hope you like this chapter!
In the last issue of "Omega Attack": In his travels in the Astral Plane, Ronnie Rocker meets Omega's recently deceased girlfriend, Betsy Braddock, the former Brotherhood and X-Factor member known as Psylocke. After a small talk, Ronnie tells Betsy of the situation between Kid Razor, Selene, and Omega. Betsy agrees to help, and she and Ronnie look for a way to temporarily escape the Astral Plane. Meanwhile, back in Cleveland, Kid Razor is ambushed by Omega, whose eyes are red, indicating he's under the power of the Black Queen. Omega demanded Kid Razor's guitar. And he looked ready to kill the Kid of Rock to get it. Now Kid Razor must face Omega, and hopefully be able to convince him to fight Selene's control and let Betsy go without being forced to do something extreme.

(Cleveland, Ohio)
"Give me the guitar, Kid Razor." Omega ordered. Razor rubbed his shoulder, then looked at Omega.
"Why do you need it? You hardly need the Power of Rock in you, pal. You got plenty already." Razor arched a blond eyebrow. Omega snarled, his tentacles whirling faster.
"Razor, you do not understand. I want Betsy back. I need her back. I'm nothing without her! She was everything to me! The guitar's power can resurrect her!"
"The Power of Rock couldn't resurrect disco, pal." Razor shook his head. "Look Omega, The Kid of Rock knows what it's like to lose someone he cares about. I don't know where you got this idea that my guitar can bring her back." Razor shook his head sadly. "It can't. I'm sorry, Omega. The Kid of Rock can't resurrect people, pal. If he could, he'd bring back John Lennon and George Harrison, brother. Omega, you must have loved her a lot to miss her this much. Don't do this. Just let her go. She'd want you to." Omega howled in rage, his tentacles whirling like saw blades, and sprouting blades. You're kidding, right?
"YOU LIE!!!!!!!" Omega howled. He whipped his tentacles at Razor.
"Yipe!" Razor barely managed to dodge the organic whips. However, he was having a tough time, because there were so many, and they were so fast. "Hey, easy pal! The Kid of Rock is not ready to be chopped into salad, you psycho!" Omega roared.

(Burton family home, Cincinnati, Ohio)
In his room, Spencer Burton, known to all as the armored speedster Sonic Blue (A/N: Unlike Kid Razor, Sonic Blue's identity is known) was sitting on the bed watching TV. His room was an average teen boy's room, and he had above his bed a poster of the Avenger and lawyer known as the She-Hulk (A/N: Sonic Blue has a bit of a crush on the She-Hulk) as well as some classic rock posters. He held his Sonic Blue armor in a footlocker next to his closet. He designed and made the armor himself from parts in a junkyard. Not bad for a kid who was born with an IQ of 325. He watched TV and was bored to death until a newsflash erupted.
"What?" Spence blinked. "Spence" was his nickname.
"In Cleveland, Ohio, Kid Razor, the super-powered rock musician and honorary Avenger, has engaged in combat with a mutant only identified as Omega. Police are evacuating. According to reports, Omega claimed he needed the guitar to bring back his dead girlfriend…" Spencer shut off his TV.
"Well, I have been looking for a new opportunity to test out the refinements on my armor." Spencer smiled. He opened his footlocker and put on his armor. Downstairs, a pretty woman in her forties with long brown hair sat at a table, drinking coffee. She was Delilah Burton, and Spencer created the Sonic Blue armor to get the money to treat her when she battled cancer a while ago. She survived thanks to Kid Razor's help.
My son did all this for me…She smiled. Thanks to his patents on his inventions, we finally have a decent home. I never thought I'd meet Tony Stark or Reed Richards until my son started inventing. But he does worry me when he goes out playing superhero with his armor. I know that if it weren't for his armor, I'd be dead, but I wish he'd just put that armor away. I don't want him to die battling some supervillain. She saw Spencer run down in his armor. "Spencer, you know you worry me when you go out like that."
"Relax, mom." Spencer grinned. "I'll be fine. Just some guy gone nuts." He half-lied. "I'll be home soon." Spencer raced out the door.

(Brotherhood Boarding House, Bayville, New York)
X23 watched the television in a bored manner. The Wolverine clone sighed.
"Man, this show is boring. Huh?" X blinked as the news came on.
"A battle of superpowers is currently underway in Cleveland, Ohio. Cleveland's own superhero, the super-powered rock musician known as Kid Razor, has engaged in a battle with a mutant identified only as Omega." X was sipping some soda, but at the mention of Omega, she did a spit take and nearly choked.
"Guys! C'mere quick!" X hollered. The rest of the Brotherhood gathered around the TV. "It's Omega! He's fighting Kid Razor!"
"I haven't seen Omega go at it this ferociously since Vargas." Blob gulped.
"Amen, Reverend." Wanda agreed.
"Yo, Kid Razor rules man!" Todd grinned. He and Lance were big fans of Razor's music.
"Humph. He's a pretty-boy." Pietro scoffed.
"The pot calling the kettle black…" Todd snickered to Wanda, who smiled in agreement. Lance glared at Pietro.
"Kid Razor could kick your butt, Pietro." Lance glared. "All he needs to do is whap you upside the head with his guitar."
"He is kinda cute." X23 shrugged. The others blinked. "What?!"
"He also is notorious for his mouth." Pietro scoffed. "The guy is that biggest loudmouth in the universe OW!!!" Lance smacked him.
"We've got to find out what's going on over there." Fred nodded somberly. "I think the stress of Betsy's death has gotten to Mike."
"It's gotten to all of us in a way." Wanda sighed. "But I don't think it would cause him to attack a superhero."
"You'd be surprised what love can make a person do, Wanda." Toad said, putting his hand on hers.
"Maybe we should go to Cleveland ourselves and find out what's going on." X said. The Brotherhood all looked at each other.
I got a bad feeling about this. Boris, the Brotherhood Rat, thought as he stared at the image on the screen of Omega and Razor brawling. My rat-sense tells me that there's more to this thing than meets the eye. Why do I get the feeling that my humans are going to be in the fight of their lives?

(Xavier Institute)
Storm heard a knock on the door. When she opened, she noticed the Brotherhood. Even Boris was there, in Todd's cupped hands.
"We need a ride to Cleveland. Omega's there." Lance said simply.
Hoo boy! Looks like more trouble is on the way! How will the Brotherhood react to Omega's actions? Will they harm or help Kid Razor? What's Sonic Blue up to? What madness will happen next? Find out in the next chapter! Suggestions needed badly!
