Omega Attack!
To Descendant: I'm glad you liked that chapter. I nearly shed a tear working on it, believe it or not. I read the new chapter of "Brotherhood Evolution" and I loved it! BTW, what do you have planned for Mike in "Brotherhood Evolution"? You said you had something similar in store for him. What did you mean by that?
To Wizard1: Where the heck are you, man?!
To Raliena: Glad you loved the new chapter! Here's some more for you! Enjoy! Hope you keep on reading my stuff! And read "Brotherhood Evolution"! You'll love it!
To Red Witch: Yeah, more madness plus hopefully a big fight scene coming up soon! BTW, I read the new stuff you put up and loved it! Incredibly funny as always!
To DemonRogue13: Well, I'm glad you liked that chapter! Here's some more for you! Enjoy!
In the last issue of "Omega Attack": Betsy "Psylocke" Braddock, the recently-deceased girlfriend of Mike "Omega" Nagrite, had appeared before him in the form of a ghost. Reappearing from the Astral Plane, she and Omega had a talk. Betsy explained Selene's deceit to Omega, and begged him to let her go. She told him that even though they can't be together, she'll always be with him and protect him in spirit, and that she wanted him to be happy. She told him that he'll never be happy unless he learns to move on and fight off her control. Mike listened, but then the hypnotic spell tried to take Mike over completely. Omega easily conquered it, fueled by his lost love's words. At that point, Kid Razor, Omega, and Sonic Blue (Who left for a couple minutes to get his armor repaired), noticed the X-Men's Velocity land, and Storm and the Brotherhood emerge.

"Who are those people?" Sonic Blue readied his blasters.
"It's okay, Sonic Blue. They're friends." Omega smiled. Betsy nodded in agreement.
"Hang on, Mike!" Pietro raced towards Razor. "We're helping you out, man!"
"Oh Pietro, you bloody fool…" Psylocke growled. "I'm bloody surprised I ended up dead instead of him!" Razor smirked at the speedster coming toward him. Pietro tried to take down Razor with a high-speed punch, but Razor easily sidestepped, than tattooed his guitar on the back of the vain speedster's head, sending a screaming Pietro flying through a building.
"Sorry." Razor shrugged. Mike smirked.
"Don't worry about it. Stuff like that happens all the time to him."
"Yeah, he's a bloody moron." Betsy shrugged. Storm landed in front of Kid Razor.
"Why are you fighting Omega?" She asked sternly. Razor only looked her over.
"You resemble Tina Turner, you know that babe?" Razor smirked. X23 leapt towards Razor.
"Answer her!" She roared.
"X, Calm down!" Omega used a tentacle to restrain X23 and another to hold the others back. "It's alright. Sonic Blue and Kid Razor are friends." Lance and Todd walked up to Razor.
"Wow! I'm meeting the real Kid Razor!" Lance whooped. "Lance Alvers. Big fan." Razor smirked and shook his hand.
"Nice to meet a fan. Where you from, Cincinnati?"
"Illinois."
"I'm from New York, yo." Todd shook Razor's hand.
"Nice to meet fans."
"Betsy?" Wanda and X blinked.
"Yeah, it's me." Betsy smirked.
"But…you're dead!"
"Yes and no. Me body's dead, but me spirit can't die. I live in the Astral Plane now. I came back to help Mike."
"But why?" Blob asked. Mike drooped his head with a sigh.
"I'll explain…" Mike explained the whole story to the others, as well as cleared up introductions between the parties present.
"Who is this Selene chick?" Lance scratched his head.
"Selene is one powerful sorceress." Razor grumbled. "The little leather-clad psycho-leech wants my guitar. And she took advantage of a grieving Mike to do it!"
"Why's she after your guitar?" Lance asked.
"My guitar can tap into a great mystical power. If she gets her claws on it, she'll be able to conquer the world with it, not to mention perhaps the universe." Razor growled.
"A world under Selene is not a good thing." Sonic Blue shuddered. "Razor and I got caught in one of her dungeons once. I still get creeped out whenever a woman with black hair wearing leather walks by. Trust Razor to never get traumatized." Razor chuckled.
"One advantage of being unable to feel fear, pal." Razor smirked. "Selene's little demons couldn't break me." He then chuckled at a glaring Sonic Blue. "Dude, they got roasted when they tried to take your armor off! Relax! Her pets may be obedient, but they are a dumb as bricks with brain damage!" Razor laughed.
"Demons?" Storm blinked. "What's going on?"
"Well, Selene and Razor here have a feud going on." Betsy smirked. "She asked for the guitar when they first met. Razor refused, and she trapped Ronnie Rocker, his friend and mentor, in a necklace she now wears."
"Ronnie Rocker? But he died over a decade ago!" Fred exclaimed. Pietro wobbled up to the others, holding his head.
"Man, my head hurts." He whined. Wanda raised an amused eyebrow.
"I thought you'd be used to that by now." She smirked.
"Oh shut up." Pietro grumbled.
"We came to Cleveland to help out Mike." Wanda said.
"I'm alright." Mike unsheathed his tentacles. "But Selene won't. How dare she. How dare she! That witch used my own broken heart against me! I'm going to do to her what I did to Vargas!" The Brotherhood gulped when the memory of a blood-soaked Omega holding two pieces of Psylocke's killer on his tentacles came back to their heads.
"Hey Squid, you're not the only one who wants a piece of that old leather-clad hag!" Razor added.
"Hey fellas, I may be a ghost, but I'm still here!" Psylocke added. "If the two of you decide to fight her, I don't know what I can do to help."
"Just be there for me one last time, Bets. That's all I need." Omega smiled.
"Oh, and here I was thinking you two actually liked me." A familiar voice said. Razor, Spencer, The Brotherhood, and Storm turned around and saw the Black Queen in the flesh, standing in front of a wall, looking at her red fingernails in a bored manner. Razor and Omega snarled.
"You got a lot of guts showing your real self in my town, you old bag!" Razor snapped.
"I think I just smelt pure evil." X23 growled, unsheathing her claws.
"What do you want here, Selene?" Lance snarled. "We know about you, and we know about what you tried to do to Mike! You tried to make him a killer!"
"Oh please." Selene laughed. "Omega has shed blood before. Vargas, I believe his name was."
"I'm giving you to the count of three to get out of here now." Mike snarled. Selene laughed harder at that.
"Oh, I don't think my new pets will appreciate you threatening me, dear Omega." The sorceress replied.
"What do you mean?" Razor snapped. "What?" He turned around and looked at the sky. His superhuman hearing picked up a sound like fireworks. And it was growing louder. Soon, Razor saw what appeared to be several comets. As they came closer, he realized they were huge fireballs, and they were coming up fast! "EVERYBODY!!!!! HIT THE DECK!!!!" The heroes scattered as the fireballs hit the ground, exploding like volcanoes. The sound they made was like a huge gunshot blast combined with an explosion.
"What was THAT?!" Sonic Blue screamed.
"Ooh, you angered one of my new pets." Selene smirked. "He has a…fiery disposition." Razor saw something fly towards him. "And here he is now." The figure, a teen boy with long blond hair, clad in a black costume with red boots and a red leather jacket, landed in front of the heroes. He shot flames from his hands, and he used them like jet engines to fly. His eyes glowed red. Razor's eyes widened in shock.
"Dear God, no…Rip! RIP!!!" He angrily turned to Selene, his green eyes glowing with a combination of rage and the Power of Rock. "SELENE, WHAT DID YOU DO TO MY BEST FRIEND, YOU #%$&$%!!!!"
Oh, no! It has hit the fan now, dudes and dudettes! What'll happen next? Can our heroes stop Rip without having to take extreme measures? What about the rest of the Cavaliers? Will they make an appearance? Find out in the next chapter! Suggestions needed badly!
