To Red Witch: Yeah, I thought it was an appropriate position for Kelly to be in, too. And you haven't been submitting as much lately. Is something up? Oh, and I have a suggestion for you: Have Althea hide in a corner, rocking back and forth, holding
To Aaron: Yeah, that scene just SCREAMED for another appearance by everyone's favorite fat disgusting Scotsman. I'm glad you liked the whole Back to the Future tribute.

It's Profile Time Again! Crowd hoots, hollers, claps, cheers, chants, and screams. Some hold up signs. This time, we take another look at the Solar Samurai, Sunfire! (A/N: As with the last time I did this for Sunfire, I altered his bio a little bit from the comics and added some imagination)
Sunfire
Real Name: Toshiro Yashida
Class: Mutant
Allegiance: Misfits (West Coast Team)
Powers: Toshiro Yashida's powers are flame-based. He has the power to generate intense heat and flames. He can encase himself in a field of flames. This field can be used to protect himself or allow him to fly. He can also throw flames at opponents. Toshiro may have the potential power of a thermonuclear bomb once his powers develop fully. Also, Toshiro is more resistant to the effects of heat and flame than a normal human.
Bio: Born in Japan, Toshiro Yashida may never have become a mutant if it weren't for World War II. The intense radiation of the atomic bombs being dropped in Hiroshima and Nagasaki caused mutations in some of the population, including Toshi's grandparents, who became dormant X-Gene carriers and who would later die of cancer decades later. The X-Gene passed on to Toshi's father Saburo, a diplomat, and it still remained dormant until it passed down to Toshi. As a child, Toshiro spent time with his great-uncle Tomo, a survivor of the bombs, and as a result, became fanatically anti-American. Tomo taught Toshiro to share his distrust of Americans, despite the fact that Saburo Yashida worked for peace and cooperation between America and Japan.
Tomo suspected Toshiro may have had superhuman powers when he noticed that Toshi didn't burn easily in a fire. He took Toshi to the site of the Hiroshima bombing, and had him touch some of the still-radioactive soil. When the soil touched Toshi's fingers, his mutant powers over flame emerged. Tomo helped Toshi train his powers and use them to become a hero for Japan as Sunfire (He secretly hoped to get Sunfire to America, where he can exact revenge on the Americans for the atomic bombings in WWII). Toshi became Japan's National Hero as Sunfire, where he's idolized by Japanese kids and even is on merchandise!
Toshi's coldness towards foreigners was warmed when Ace Starr visited Japan on a trip to find some fun after leaving the Hellions as an undercover agent for SHIELD. Tomo secretly built a robotic ninja, and used it as a villain for his grand-nephew to fight. Despite Sunfire's hateful attitude towards the American rocker feral, Wildstar gladly helped Sunfire and Toshi was convinced when Ace saved a woman from being crushed to death by rubble. When Ace discovered the creator, Sunfire was confused. When Saburo found out about Tomo's plans for his mutant son, he confronted Tomo. In front of Sunfire and Wildstar, Saburo was fatally shot by Tomo, and an enraged Sunfire incinerated his grand-uncle. Wildstar managed to convince Sunfire that it was okay to be proud of being Japanese while understanding other nations. Due to his honor, Sunfire owed Ace a favor.
Later on, Toshi would repay the favor. Ace used it to recruit him to face off the bio-droid known as the Mimic, alongside Dazzler, Velocity, Thunderbolt, and Thunderbird. Teaming up with Siryn, Wolfsbane, and X23, the mutants defeated the Mimic. An idea formed that the group should stay together, and the West Coast Misfits were formed. Sunfire initially refused to join, but Ace used his honor again to get him to join.
Sunfire has a hot temper and a lot of pride, and he constantly gets into arguments with fellow teammate Thunderbolt. They cannot agree on anything! Sunfire has remained loyal to the team and stayed on since, despite recently considering leaving the team.
Note: It's believed that Sunfire has a twin sister with powers like his own, but Toshi or Ace have yet to confirm it.

(Malibu Mall)
"Ooh, lookit this one!" Rahne squealed with delight. She, Theresa, and Dial-Up were undergoing a very important mission: Find the best outfits.
"I like this shirt." Theresa laughed as she held up a black t-shirt. On it in blue letters was "Yeah, I have a big mouth! And I'm proud of it, too!"
"Hey, look at this." Dial-Up held up a pair of green slacks. Theresa and Rahne looked at the green slacks. Down the sides of the slacks in green-and-silver letters was the word "Siryn" The back pockets were decorated like the Irish flag. Theresa chuckled.
"Man, that Jamie. The man's a promotion machine."
"How old is he again?" Dial-Up blinked.
"13." Rahne replied. Dial-Up shook her head in disbelief. Only in America would you find a 13-year-old powerhouse agent.
"Let's go try some of this stuff on." Theresa held up some clothes. Dial-Up shrugged. She wasn't much of a shopper. She came along to watch over Rahne and Theresa. The two mutants and Joe went over to the changing rooms when they heard a voice.
"Stupid $#&%$ dress…" The voice growled.
"What in the world?" Rahne wondered as she approached the doors. A dress fell to the floor in front of the changing room.
"Hey, that's mine!" A dark-skinned hand grabbed the dress.
"Hey, I only wanted to see it!" Rahne snapped.
"Mine!"
"Mine!"
"MINE!"
"MINE!"
"MINE!"
"MINE!!!" The arm grabbed the dress, ripping it in half as Rahne fell on her butt. An angry Monet St. Croix stormed out. "You ripped it, you stupid Scot!"
"Monet, what are you doing here?!" Theresa snarled.
"If you must know…" Monet flipped her long dark hair arrogantly. "I'm trying on clothes. It is a free country, after all." Dial-Up raised an eyebrow.
"Let me guess, you're out to impress Ace."
"Well, I personally cannot believe I have to compete with three other girls for someone whose heart is clearly mine, but that's the way it goes, I guess." Monet sighed. She grabbed another outfit and went back into the dressing room with a grumble. "Why do those other girls chase after my man…"
"That was…weird." Rahne said as she got up.
"C'mon. As long as Ace is ruling her mind, she won't cause trouble." Dial-Up said. "I also heard my niece Michiko has a thing for him." Yup, that's the Starr family for you. Women want them, men want to be them.

(Nick's Arcade)
"You gonna lose, Jabroni! No one can beat the Thunderbolt in wrestling games!" Kyle grinned. He and Toshiro were playing an old wrestling game from the mid-90s. Kyle was Shawn Michaels, and Toshiro was playing as the Undertaker.
"Not when I get you with my Tombstone Piledriver!" Toshiro replied back. "No!"
"Kick out! I am the master! IF YA SMELLLLLLL-LA-LA-LA-LA-LA-LOOOOWWW!!!! WHAT THE THUNDERBOLT…IS COOKIN'!!!" Meanwhile, Longshot, X23, Thunderbird, and a Hawaiian Joe with short black hair codenamed Torpedo were watching.
"How long will those two continue this?" Torpedo asked.
"Until one punches the other out. They always settle arguments like this." John shrugged. "However, it usually leads to more arguments." He then noticed Kyle and Toshi in a yelling match. "See?"
"Ho brother." Longshot sighed. "Hey, who's that?" He pointed at a figure in gray fatigues hiding behind a window.
"That's Firefly! He's one of Cobra's goons." Torpedo said.
"He must be desperate to visit the hospital if he's watching us." X23 snarled, fighting the urge to unsheathe her claws.
"Let's go." Torpedo waved.
"What about Kyle and Toshi?" John asked. Torpedo watched them argue.
"They'll be fine. Let's go." Torpedo replied. The Joe and the mutants left.
Well, things are heating up now! What madness will happen next? What is Firefly up to? Does Ace's heart really belong to Monet? Find out in the next chapter! Suggestions needed badly!
