Brotherhood Evolution: No Good Deed
Well, this will be the last chapter as I'm starting up Autumn Fun. But fret not, for none can hold down that which is Brotherhood Evolution. I'm sorry about the delay, but apparent FF.net thought that five of my fic's broke the rules of submissions. I.E. Summer Fun, the Guide to Winter Fun, The Guide to Autumn Fun, and X-Men Evolution Analyzed. So they removed them and put me on probation. Life's a be-atch, isn't it? Oh well. Guess I'm, going to have to watch myself and be vewy, vewy careful. But I digress. On with the show!
********************
The Brotherhood of Bayville Boarding House A.k.a: The 'Hood House
"So what do we do now?" Mike asked as he sat at the kitchen table.
"I don't know. Maybe we should leave Bayville. There's really nothing for us here anymore." Blob answered.
"I don't know…" Lance began.
"Let's do it." Wanda said simply. "I can't stand being here anymore."
"I go where Wanda does." Toad said simply as he buddied up to her.
"Don't touch me." Wanda hissed.
"And life goes on." Mike quipped.
"Fine. Let's go check out the train schedule." Pietro said simply.
"Screw that. If we do this, we do it right. We wanna leave Bayville, than we do it on the fly, no nothing. Just us. That's all we really need." Betsy said simply
"I like that idea." Lance said simply. "Let's leave our stuff here as a reminder to the X-Geeks of what we stood for."
"A lack of hygiene?" Toad asked.
"A complete mess?" Mike added.
"Nothing but a bunch of Slobs and losers?" Blob added.
"I get the picture." Lance mumbled. "Let's just go then." Lance said as he walked outside.
"The Brotherhood is leaving Bayville!" Betsy shouted as the Brotherhood walked outside and towards the train station.
********************
On the Train…
"I let the Darkness cover me…" Toad sang to himself as the Brotherhood sat on the train. Pietro was trying to convince Wanda to cheer up.
"This spells bad stuff." Mike said as he and Betsy sat towards the back of the car.
"Look Wanda, Magneto was nothing more than a glorified Bully…"
"I don't want to hear it Pietro." Wanda hissed.
"All the fond memories you have of him are only because he made Mastermind put them in your head."
"I said I DON'T WANT TO HEAR IT!" Wanda screamed as she hexed the train, causing it to derail.
"Talk about a train wreck…" Betsy moaned as the Brotherhood got up and looked around. To their horror they realized that they were trapped as the train lay in ruins.
"Bad pun Bets…" Mike muttered as he got up and pulled some shrapnel from his arm, taking a moment to allow his wounds to heal.
"Guys, we got problems!" Lance said nervously as he ducked his head out the window.
"No dice Sherlock." Pietro swore.
"No, there's an electrical cable out there sparking near a gas line which was punctured.
"Oops." Wanda muttered.
"For some reason, I always knew that we would go out in an explosion that would take a lot of innocents with us." Blob said simply.
"I knew that Wanda was probably going to be behind it as well." Mike added.
"NOT NOW!" Wanda screamed as Toad and Pietro bounced around, trying to find a way out.
"No good yo! We're trapped like Toad's!" Toad shouted. "Wanda! Hold me!" Toad cried as he tried to grab a hold of Wanda.
"NO!" Wanda screamed.
"I'm not dying like a toad man!" Mike shouted.
"Mike! Blob! Make an exit!" Pietro shouted.
"Blob." Mike nodded to Mike as the two charged forward. "GET OUTTA MY WAY!" Blob shouted as they tore the door off its hinges and proceeded to run through the entire train, creating an exit for the other passengers as well.
"COME ON EVERYBODY!" Lance shouted. "We're getting out of here!"
"Help me!" A man cried as he grabbed on to Toad.
"Get off yo!" Toad shouted as he bounced after Mike and Blob. Pietro ran by screaming with Wanda hanging on to him.
"I don't wanna die!" The man cried as he hung on to Toad for dear life.
"Neither do I ya old fruit basket!" Toad cried.
"Help... me…" Came the weak cry from an elderly woman trapped under some wreckage. "Someone, please…help me…" Lance stopped and saw her trapped, everyone else ignoring her. As everyone else ran out, Lance ran back and let loose a blast of energy that tore the debris away from her.
"Come on." Lance said to her. "You're going to be fine." He then grabbed the woman and carefully began to carry her out of the wreck.
"Lance!" Betsy called out. "Move it!"
"Go ahead! I'll be fine!" Lance called out as he slowly made his way through the wreckage.
"I hope so." Mike muttered as he ran out with another passenger in his arms. He reached the surface just as fire trucks and emergency personnel arrived and began to tend to the wounded. Mike handed his victim to a fireman as he looked around.
"Is there anyone else still down there?" An EMT asked.
"Just two more people." Mike said as an explosion rocked the street. "Christ!" Mike swore.
"We got company.' Pietro said simply as the X-Men arrived and saw the Brotherhood. Another explosion prevented any conflicts from arising as the Brotherhood's attention was turned back to the exit, where they saw Lance making his way out with the old woman, fire blazing in the background. Lance handed her to an EMT just as another explosion struck.
"GAH!" Lance shouted as he was sent flying from the blast.
"Gotcha!" Betsy shouted as she emerged from the shadows and caught Lance before he landed into an ambulance. She helped him over to the others, who were now being swarmed by reporters and people.
"These people saved us!" The scared man who had clung to Toad shouted at the reporter. "They saved us all!"
"Yea. That's right yo!" Toad shouted as he pulled the guy over and threw his arm over his shoulder. "Just listen to this guy, we're hero's."
"What do you call yourselves?" One reported asked as the Brotherhood got together.
"We're the Brotherhood, hero's of Bayville." Pietro said simply as the Brotherhood stood tall, smiling to themselves.
"We are?" Mike asked.
"Shut up." Betsy said as she elbowed Mike in the ribs.
"I don't believe it." Kurt said in utter shock.
"Wow." Kitty muttered to herself as the Brotherhood continued to pose for the cameras.
"This day just keeps getting worse." Scott muttered as he buried his head in his hands.
********************
The 'Hood House, the next Day
"I don't believe it…" Mike said as he looked out the window.
"I haven't seen this many reporters since Toad claimed he was the Limburg baby." Blob said simply.
"Those had to be some dumb reporters." Wanda said.
"You'd be surprised. Wolf Blitzer was here." Lance commented.
"Why do I even bother?" Wanda muttered as she went to walk away.
"Hey Wanda!' Pietro called out as he sped up to her. "Don't go. These reporters want to see our more shy sister." Pietro said as Betsy flashed the reporters and screamed. "Ohhhhh…" Pietro said simply as Mike dragged his girlfriend from the window.
"Damn it Bets, this isn't Mardi Gras." Mike muttered.
"Pietro, I caused that accident. I could have gotten people killed." Wanda said in her defense.
"Hey, we don't know anything about that. And neither do they. As far as we're concerned, we're all heroes. And you're one of us." Pietro said simply as he led Wanda outside.
"I guess." Wanda said as reporters swarmed her. But before she could ask any question, the old woman that Lance saved wheeled herself up in a wheelchair and towards Lance.
"Young man, you saved my life. This check is the least that I could do." She said as she handed a check to Lance.
"Wow." Lance said as he looked at it.
"That's a lot of zero's Blob said as he looked over Lance's shoulder.
"Yea." Mike said as his eyes grew to be twice their size, as Lance sat down in shock.
"I've also made arrangements for my company to renovate your house." The woman said with a smile as work trucks pulled up behind her.
"Holy hell." Betsy said simply.
********************
The Next Day…
"I love this!" Pietro crowed as the Brotherhood watched their big screen TV. "You know, being the hero is great. And this gives me an idea."
"Uh oh." Mike muttered to himself.
"Agreed." Betsy said as she sat on his legs.
"If Bayville wants some hero's, than lets give them hero's." Pietro said with a smile.
"We're doomed." Lance said simply as Pietro's smile grew wider.
********************
Three weeks later, Xavier's
"I DON'T BELIEVE THIS!" Scott screamed as he blasted the paper, which held more articles about the Brotherhood. "The Brotherhood has to be cheating some how."
"I wouldn't like put it pass them." Kitty said as she watched the news, they were playing a clip of Toad saving some kids from Killer bees. Which was followed by another clip of Blob catching a falling statue.
"Yes. I sense that the Brotherhood use their powers just before these disasters happen." Xavier said simply. "I also believe that they are pushing their luck. We must be careful to make sure that they don't cause any real harm."
"Great. Now we get to play babysitters to the Brotherhood while they get all the credit." Scott muttered. "God hates me."
********************
The Next Night, Kelly's Mayoral Election Offices
"What the hell? Not again!" Kelly shouted as he noticed his offices were completely trashed.
"Like what we did." Lance said as the Brotherhood surrounded Kelly.
"What's the meaning of this?" Kelly demanded.
"We're sending a message Kelly. You see, we heard your little speech about us on the radio." Pietro said simply.
"Here's the bottom Line." Wanda hissed. "You wanna make a crusade against mutants, go ahead. But leave us out of it. Otherwise, you're going to be hurt. Badly."
"I'm not scarred of you." Kelly stated.
"You should be." Mike hissed as he lifted Kelly up by his shirt. "Want me to show you why?"
"Put him down!" Cyclops shouted as he blasted Omega with an optic blast.
"Ow." Mike muttered as he stood his ground. Soon the X-Men and New Mutants surrounded the Brotherhood.
"This is bad!" Toad said simply.
"YOU WANNA FIGHT?" Lance demanded. "Bring it on!" Lance screamed as he gathered seismic energy and let it pulse around him.
"Um, Lance, I really don't think we have the advantage here." Mike muttered as he and Betsy backed away.
"I'm tired of running!" Lance screamed. "Lets do this!"
"How about no." Betsy said as she grabbed Lance and shadow walked away.
"Let's vamoose!" Blob shouted as the Brotherhood ran away.
"Are you okay Mr. Kelly?" Beast asked as he approached Kelly.
"Get away from me you animal. This is the whole reason that I'm doing this. To get you freaks out of the world." Kelly said as he ran off.
"Great. This went wonderful." Nightcrawler muttered.
"Shut up Kurt." Rogue said.
********************
The next day
"I can't believe this." Cyclops muttered as he sat in the jail cell.
"They believed the Brotherhood over us!" Kitty cried.
"Can you blame them? The city thinks their heroes." Jean said simply. "And with Wanda controlling our powers, there was really nothing we could do to do otherwise."
"Shut up Jean." Kitty muttered.
"X-Men." Xavier said as he wheeled himself in as the doors open. "We have a situation."
"What did the Brotherhood do?" Cyclops asked.
"They sent a train off course so that they could rescue it. They didn't realize that the track they put it on now has it leading into a direct collision with another train carrying enough fuel to destroy all of Bayville. The authorities have asked for our help."
"Of course they did." Kurt said as the X-Men left the jail.
********************
Across Town
"PIETRO!" Mike shouted as he strangled Pietro. "ARE YOU INSANE!"
"AGH!" Pietro moaned.
"Most likely." Toad said simply.
"AGH!"
"How are we supposed to stop two trains?" Betsy asked. "Mike and Blob only have enough strength to stop one."
"I say we run for it and leave the X-Geeks to deal with it." Toad said as he saw the X-Jet fly by.
"Agreed." Betsy said as she hopped into the jeep and drove away with Pietro, Wanda, Toad and Blob.
"Well?" Mike asked Lance.
"I always wanted to play hero." Lance said simply.
"There's a good chance that we're probably not going to come back."
"Small price to pay."
"You're still trying to impress Kitty, aren't you?"
"Just a little." Lance said with a smirk as Mike smiled and took off after the train. Lance then proceeded to make his way to a halfway point, where the trains would collide.
"I really do hate my life at times." Mike said as he sent out a tendrical and caught the rail on the train. He then pulled himself onto the train and ran across the top. "Bond's got nothin on me." Mike said as he ran across the top of the train.
"What are you doing here?" Jean demanded as Mike stopped at the head of the train. She was flying next to the head of the train we're Kurt and Kitty we're sitting.
"I could ask the same Red. But right now I'm to busy." Mike said as he focused his muscles and adrenaline levels so that he could make the needed Jump. Once he was airborne, he whirled himself around and landed in front of the train a good fifty feet in front of the out of control train. "COME ON!" Mike screamed as he braced himself for impact as the train slammed into him full speed. (WHAMP!)
Mike dug his feet into the ground and pushed against the train as he felt his arm and leg bones snap, only to have them knit together in seconds. "Ow. Damn…" Mike muttered as he put pressure on the train to try and slow it down. Jean than used her telekinetic abilities to help the train slow down.
"Almost there…" Jean strained.
"Put your spine in it!" Mike shouted. (Crack) "There goes mine." Mike muttered as he felt the broken bone knit back together.
Within moments, their combined efforts got the train to stop. Cyclops and the rest of the X-Men than helped clear the train out as Lance ran pat them and towards the other one.
"LANCE!" Kitty shouted. "Where the hell is he going?"
"To solve some unsolved issues." Mike said as he continued to unload passengers. "Duh."
"Kitty, Kurt, the other train!" Jean shouted as Nightcrawler teleported them over.
"Think you can handle this?" Kurt asked.
"If Jean can't slow it down, then I think I can phase the train through the other one.
"I hope so." Kurt gulped as they approached the other, now abandoned train at an accelerated rate.
"I can't do it!" Jean shouted. "I wasted all my strength on the other one!"
"Then it's my Job!" Kitty said as she phased herself and the train. Half way through, she gave out though, almost fainting. Nightcrawler managed to teleport them both away as the two trains exploded. The Blast radiated until Jean threw up a telekinetic shield around it, trying to reign in the blast. But she was losing steam fast.
"RAHHHHH!" Lance screamed as he appeared in front of the blast, radiating energy. He then rolled his eyes into the back of his head and focused as he knelt down and put his hands just above the ground. The ground around the contained explosion began to pulse and then slowly fall in onto itself as Lance caved the earth in around it. His eyes began to glow as he then focused and pushed harder. "Come on God… you owe me…" The earth then rose up and slowly formed around Jean's telekinetic shield, trapping the blast in layers of solid rock. With a final burst of strength Lance caused the giant earthen dome to collapse back into the ground, completely dissipating the explosion. "Ha…" Lance said with a weak smile as he collapsed back.
"Wow." Cyclops said simply as Mike helped Lance up.
"Are you Crazy?" Shadowcat shouted as walked over screaming at Lance. "You could have killed thousands of innocent people. And for what? Like, a chance to be famous? What a stupid…" Kitty ranted before she found herself being kissed on the lips by Lance. She closed her eyes and drifted off into la-la land for a moment before Lance broke the kiss.
"You're right. And don't worry. We're outta Bayville for good, so don't worry about it. That will be the last act of heroics. You can count on it." Lance said with a smile to the X-Men. Kitty just stood there in a complete daze.
"Let's roll." Mike said as he and Lance walked away. "I knew you still had a thing for her."
"Shut up Mike." Lance said simply.
"Lance and Kitty, sitting in a tree K-I-S-S-I-N… OW!"

"I hope so." Kurt gulped as they approached the other, now abandoned train at an accelerated rate.
"I can't do it!" Jean shouted. "I wasted all my strength on the other one!"
"Then it's my Job!" Kitty said as she phased herself and the train. Half way through, she gave out though, almost fainting. Nightcrawler managed to teleport them both away as the two trains exploded. The Blast radiated until Jean threw up a telekinetic shield around it, trying to reign in the blast. But she was losing steam fast.
"RAHHHHH!" Lance screamed as he appeared in front of the blast, radiating energy. He then rolled his eyes into the back of his head and focused as he knelt down and put his hands just above the ground. The ground around the contained explosion began to pulse and then slowly fall in onto itself as Lance caved the earth in around it. His eyes began to glow as he then focused and pushed harder. "Come on God… you owe me…" The earth then rose up and slowly formed around Jean's telekinetic shield, trapping the blast in layers of solid rock. With a final burst of strength Lance caused the giant earthen dome to collapse back into the ground, completely dissipating the explosion. "Ha…" Lance said with a weak smile as he collapsed back.
"Wow." Cyclops said simply as Mike helped Lance up.
"Are you Crazy?" Shadowcat shouted as walked over screaming at Lance. "You could have killed thousands of innocent people. And for what? Like, a chance to be famous? What a stupid…" Kitty ranted before she found herself being kissed on the lips by Lance. She closed her eyes and drifted off into la-la land for a moment before Lance broke the kiss.
"You're right. And don't worry. We're outta Bayville for good, so don't worry about it. That will be the last act of heroics. You can count on it." Lance said with a smile to the X-Men. Kitty just stood there in a complete daze.
"Let's roll." Mike said as he and Lance walked away. "I knew you still had a thing for her."
"Shut up Mike." Lance said simply.
"Lance and Kitty, sitting in a tree K-I-S-S-I-N… OW!"
