Brotherhood Evolution: A Place to Belong
Well, I guess you people like this series. Here's another chapter, and with more Brotherhoody goodness. But just a few reminders first. This is an Au fic. I'm going to stay as true to the story line as I can, (then branch off later) but I will take a few creative liberties with what's going to happen. If a character seems out of character, I.E. Scott last chapter, it's because I need to stress a point that's being made. In the last chapter it was the fact that the X-Men are hypocritical a lot of the time. Also if you remember, Scott and the X-Men were bitter to the Brotherhood. I.E. "The Loserhood" from the Hex Factor episode. But just remember, this is and Alternate Universe fic. And as for Mike being Bitchy, well when I reveal his past you'll know why he's bitter and sarcastic as well as a badass.
Disclaimer: I own nothing but the character of Michael Nagrite and the idea's behind this fic.
Summary: The X-Men try to deal with their new student. With little success.

Bayville High, Lunch Period
"I'm telling you guy's, this new kid is defiantly worth a look at." Toad explained to the other member's of the Brotherhood.
"Look, even if he is a mutant, what makes you think he'll join with us." Lance said as he studied the Mystery Meat the school was serving. He pushed it away in horror as it ate the spoon and burped. "I mean, he is at Xavier's."
"I dunno. I just got the feeling that he's one of us in reality. He's got the attitude to him." Toad said as he looked around. "There he is!" Toad shouted as Mike entered the cafeteria. A good portion of the school rose up and applauded him as he gave a light bow to the crowd.
"Hmmm… Maybe Toad here has a point." Pietro quipped as Mike walked into line and got his food. "This guy does have possibilities."
"Then again…" Fred stated as Mike sat down with the X-Men. "He's with the X-Geeks."
"Hey, he's got 'Hood written all over him." Toad said as the Brotherhood continued eating. "Just you watch." Toad said as he stared at Mike.
--------------------
"Oh man I can't believe you cold clocked Duncan his buddy's like that." Evan exclaimed as he slapped the table with his hand. "It was classic!" The skater boy said as he laughed.
"I try." Mike responded as he stuffed his face. "I mean it's not like I did any permanent damage to their little heads."
"You should be careful." Kurt cautioned.
"Your one to talk." Rogue said as she slapped Kurt's back. "I mean, who wanted to do nothing but party when he first got here?" Rogue said with a sly smile. "And who kept forgetting about his image Inducer?"
"Ok, ok… So I'm no angel. Doesn't mean I don't know where the line is." Kurt laughed. Mike just stared at his teammates and shook his head.
"Yea you may know where it is, but that doesn't stop you from crossing it." Scott said as he put his arm over Kurt's shoulder.
"I'll catch you guy's later." Mike said as he got up and left.
"Like, he sure has gotten independent pretty fast." Kitty said as she watched Mike leave. She then turned and saw Lance staring ate her, a content look plastered on his face. She blushed slightly as she went back to eating.
--------------------
"HEY LANCE!!!" Pietro shouted, snapping his fingers in front of lance to snap him out of his daze.
"What!" Lance asked as he turned his attention away from a certain X-Man and faced his teammates.
"If you weren't day dreaming, you would have heard that were going off to approach that new guy from the X-Geeks." Pietro said as he got up with Fred and Toad in tow.
"Hey wait up!" Lance called as he ran after his departing team.
********************
Outside in the Quad
"Hey, wait up yo!!!" Toad called as Mike stopped and turned around. He saw the Brotherhood of Mutants coming toward him.
"This should be interesting…" Mike thought as Toad walked up to him.
"Hey, Thank's again for saving my Bacon." Toad stated as he crouched next to Blob.
"No prob little buddy. Mind introducing me to your friend's?" Mike asked as Pietro sped next to him.
"The brilliant, handsome, and charming Pietro Maximoff at your service." Pietro said as he held out his hand. "Oh, and that's Todd, Lance and Fred." Pietro added, waving toward the other Brotherhood members.
"You must be the egotistical one of the group." Mike said as he gripped Pietro's hand and pumped it. Pietro's face sunk as the rest of the Brotherhood laughed. "Name's Mike Nagrite." Mike said, redirecting their attention back to him. "So, how can I help you guy's?" Mike asked as he let go of Pietro's hand.
"We just wanted to invite you to join the Brotherhood of Mutant's." Todd blurted out.
"TOAD!!!" Lance shouted as he clamped his hand over Todd's mouth.
"Brotherhood of Mutants?" Mike asked puzzlingly. "What make's you think I'm a mutant?"
"Let's see your hanging with the X-Geek's and you kicked the butts of six of the biggest guy's in school." Toad said, removing Lance's hand.
"Ok, you got me. I'm a mutant. But why should I join you guys? I mean I'm pretty well off at Xavier's." Mike asked, getting interested.
"Well first of all, you really don't seem like the type of guy that belongs with the X-Geeks." Lance said.
"And why would you think that?" Mike asked as he raised his pierced eyebrow.
"You got a bad streak in you. You're a rebel." Lance said, starting to smile.
"You got that right. But really, how are you guy's any different than the X-Men?"
"First of all, anything goes at the 'hood house." Lance said as he started to get into the whole recruiting thing.
"Go on." Mike said, his interest getting the better off him.
"We crash parties and have all the fun we want to. With no rules at all." Fred said with a smile as he ran his big hand through his Mohawk. "Well… There are some rules. But nothing serious."
"And most importantly, do you think that you really fit in with the geek squad?" Lance asked seriously.
"You know, you've got a point. They are a little too preppy for my tastes." Mike said as he rubbed his chin. "Tell you what, I'll give your offer a good consideration and let you know later. After I've had some time to think about it." Mike said as he walked away.
"You should join us." Toad called out, making Mike stop in his tracks. "You would really fit in at the hood house and with us." Toad said. Mike turned and smiled at the frog boy.
"This has possibilities. Mike mused as he walked to his next class.
"Think he'll join up?" Fred asked as the Brotherhood watched Mike leave.
"Oh yea." Toad said as he turned to face the others. "He's defiantly a Hood at heart." Toad said with a smile.

One week later, Xavier's Institute for the Gifted Young
"Well, I can't put it off any longer." Mike Nagrite mused as he paced around in his room. "I've given Xavier and his little group here a shot. But what the Brotherhood said is true. I am a rebel at heart. I don't fit in here. This isn't me." Mike thought as he popped his tendricals out. He studied them as he paced around. The white tendricals were the complete sum of his mutation, the ability to control the flow of calcium in his body. "My instincts say to go join the Brotherhood. And they've never let me down before. Plus there's the fact that I don't believe in Xavier's dream at all. Human's and Mutant's getting along in peace and harmony. Yea right. Humanity can't even get along with itself, much less a new race." Mike thought bitterly as he remembered how his father had reacted to the discovery of Mike's powers. Mike glanced at his costume that was on the bed. It was the exact same as Cyclops's costume and it made Mike ill just looking at it. "These guy's defiantly need better a taste in clothing. That and they're huge hypocrites. Well, so am I… But not as big as these guys." Mike thought as he flopped onto his bed. "First thing's first though…" Mike said as he opened his closet and pulled out some cloths, his trench coat, a small knife and a sowing kit. "Let's get to work on that costume…" Mike said as he went to work on his costume, redesigning it.
********************
Two days later, outside of the Park
"Watch yourself X-Men!!!" Scott shouted as he fired a blast at Lance. Avalanche ducked under the crimson beam and sent a tremor toward the leader of the X-Men. Scott was knocked of balance as Toad and Nightcrawler rolled around on the ground, fighting.
"Where the heck is Omega!" Evan shouted as he tried to stop Pietro with bone spikes.
"He took off when the fighting started." Kitty exclaimed as she and Jean tried to keep the Blob at bay. Kitty didn't notice that Cyclops had mistimed one of his blasts, and now it was heading right for her. Lance saw this and sent a tremor towards Shadowcat, knocking her over so that the beam just missed her. Lance let out a sigh of relief as he turned and was introduced to Cyclops's fist. Lance ducked under the next punch but was hit by an optic blast. Scott then ran right toward Lance, intending to end the fight but was intercepted when someone stepped in front of Lance and landed a punch squarely in Scott's chest. Scott wheezed as the air was knocked out of him. A spin kick from the figure sent Cyclops flying into Evan. Now the Pietro was free from dealing with Evan, he ran over and grabbed Nightcrawler off of Toad and sped him away across town. Pietro then returned and helped out Toad and Blob in sending Jean into Rogue. The X-Men regrouped as the Brotherhood gathered together.
"Alright, whose the new guy!" Evan shouted, spurting bone armor.
"Evan… I'm hurt. I thought you would have recognized that move. I did use it on one of Duncan's goons. The figure said as he stepped into the light. "Hey boy's and girls. Miss me?" Mike taunted as the X-Men recovered. His costume now consisted of a pair of loose, ripped black pants and kneepads with combat boots and a solid black tee shirt that had a blue omega symbol on the right breast. He had on a deep blue trench coat, but the sleeves were cut so it seemed like a long vest. It had the Omega symbol in black on the back of it. He also had on a pair of cut off gloves that buckled halfway up his forearm and elbow pads.
"Omega?" Scott asked in astonishment. "Why?"
"Let's just say that their health plan has better options. Plus they have dental." Mike joked as he and the Brotherhood readied for another attack.
"I believe you can all stop this right now." Xavier said as he wheeled himself forward, out of nowhere.
"Uh oh. Cue ball's here." Lance said as he watched Xavier approach Mike.
"Is this what you want, Michael?" Xavier asked Mike. Mike looked at the Brotherhood and then back toward Xavier.
"Their a bunch of mook's." Mike said as he motioned toward the Brotherhood. The Brotherhood all got looks of disappointment. "But they're my kind of mook's." Mike said with a smile. "This is where I belong Chuck." Mike said as he smiled at Xavier.
"Very well. If you ever want to come back though, the door is always open" Xavier said as he led his X-Men away.
"So I guess you're a hood now." Toad said as he hopped next to Mike.
"Little buddy, I've always been a hood." Mike said with a smile as she and the Brotherhood walked away.
