Brotherhood Evolution: Welcome to Madipoor
Well, trust me folks, in the next couple of chapters things will change. Change indeed…
********************
The Hive
"X-Factor, report to the War Room." Valerie's voice ran throughout the Hive.
"Wonderful, it's about time some action happened." Betsy said with a smile.
"No Doubt." X said as she and Psylocke made there way to the War Room, where the others where gathered.
"Sup yo?" Toad asked as he munched on a pop tart.
"What do you know of Madipoor?" Valerie asked.
"Its an island that's got more crime and illegal operations than New York City, Chicago and LA put together." Forge said.
"Ouch…" Blob muttered.
"Sounds like my kinda place." X stated with a smile.
"You are twisted." Lance quipped.
"Just a tad." X said with a smirk.
"Good. Because you're going there to find him." Valerie said with a smile as she handed out folders.
"Who's this Mook?" Mike asked as he looked over the charts.
"His name's John Sublime, and he's the number one dealer of mutant parts."
"Mutant Parts?" Todd asked as he paled.
"His group captures mutants, and harvests them for parts and grafts them onto the highest bidder." Valerie stated.
"Son of a bitch…" Mike muttered.
"Jesus." Lance said as he looked over the files.
"I'm looking forward to this." Mike said simply.
"Good. You leave in an hour." Valerie said simply.
"Finally, we get to take down somebody really bad and make a difference." Lance said simply.
"Its about damn time." Wanda said with a smile.

Madipoor Island
"This place blows." Toad said as he and Omega walked through the streets. They were out of uniform as they strode with a purpose.
"X, are you sure this is the place?" Mike asked into his hidden Com-link.
"People who want to get in contact with Sublime come to that area." X said over the link. "Look for a guy named Chain-mail.
"Chain-mail?" Toad asked.
"Me think's that's him." Mike said as he pointed to a man who was draped in Razor chains. He was wearing a steel mask as he stood in front of a building.
"No… You think." Toad said sarcastically. "Shall we pay him a visit?"
"With all do haste my fine amphibian friend." Mike said with a smirk "Mut first we need a plan." Mike said as he and Toad huddled.
"I like that." Todd said with a smile.
"I thought you would." Mike said as he walked towards the man.
"How do we get his attention though?" Toad asked as they approached the man.
"I have an idea. Excuse me." Mike called out. The man looked up just in time to see Omega's fist crash into his face.
"Yo, I think you got his attention." Toad said simply.
"I hope so. I think I broke my hand with that punch." Mike said as he felt the bones in his hand knit back together as he picked up the metal masked man. "Hi there."
"We're the local IRS department." Toad said with a smile. "We're here about some unorthodox tax returns you had last year."
"And we don't like losing money that's do to us." Mike said as he held the man in the air. "But, we'll let it slip if you tell us where we can find John Sublime."
"Unless you prefer the alternative." Toad said as Mike cracked his neck.
"They're good." Lance said as he watched them from the monitor.
"Oh yea." Pietro said as the guy spilled his guts, telling them everything.
"The Government thanks you." Mike said as he tossed the metal masked man into a wall, knocking him out.
"Let's get moving before ass munch here wakes up and sings like a canary, yo." Toad said as he and Omega walked back to the field base.
********************
Seedy Motel
"You know, I am really sick of these seedy motels." Betsy stated simply. "Its almost as if Val was trying to get us back for something."
"You're just paranoid." X-23 stated simply as Mike and Toad walked in and shared a look and then shrugged.
"Johnny boy's been hiding out on the east side of the island. Apparently he's set up shop there with some friends." Toad explained.
"We should make our move before he realizes that we're here." Lance said simply.
"I agree. Suit up guys." Forge stated. "We're going out on the town."
"Yippee Kiy yi ya" Mike said simply.
"Mother..." X began.
"Please, keep it PG 13." Forge stated.
"Trucker?" X asked innocently.
********************
On the Other side of Madipoor Island
"This is inviting…" Forge quipped. X-Factor was staring at a massive fortress, surrounded in razor wire fencing.
"Kinda like home actually." X muttered simply.
"So what's the plan boss man?" Pietro asked.
"I have no clue." Forge muttered. "I was expecting security, but not this much." Forge muttered. "Betsy, can you shadow walk us in?"
"Nope." Betsy said simply. "I can only shadow walk to places I can see in my Minds eye. Before my powers evolved, I could just go into someone's head and get the visuals that I need to teleport, but now…" Betsy said with a sad smile.
"Damn. I could try and hack into their systems and shut the place down." Forge stated. "It could work."
"I have an idea." Toad stated.
"To risky." Lance said as he and Forge carried on, ignoring Toad.
"Um, guys?" Toad stated.
"I know, but it would give us the surprise that we need."
"Guys!" Toad called out.
"They're systems are probably hardwired for this sort of thing, they'd know about it right away." Lance continued.
"GUYS!" Wanda screamed.
"Yea?" Forge and Lance asked at the same time.
"Listen to Todd." Wanda said simply.
"What Toad?" Forge asked, slightly annoyed.
"Have Mike get captured." Toad said simply.
"WHAT!?" Mike shouted.
"Hold on there bozo. Just cause I like bondage doesn't mean I'm going to let my Boyfriend get captured." betsy stated as Mike visably turned red.
"Bets..." Mike whinned.
"Ew." Lance said simply.
"Kinky." Wanda stated simply.
"Look,he can survive anything they do to him, as well as get an inside visual. Betsy can then use the rapport that they share to Shadow walk all of us in there, right at where he is." Toad explained.
"Damn it." Blob muttered. "He's did it again."
"It's like when the Phalanx was here all over again." Forge muttered in shock.
"That's my Todd." Wanda said with a smile as she put an arm around Toad.
"Ewwww…" All of X-factor muttered.
"I guess it could work." Mike said simply.
"Cool." Wanda said simply as she conjured a hex that threw Mike towards the armored building.
"WANDA!!!!!!" Omega screamed as he flew threw the air.
"Oh…" He ain't pretty no more." Forge muttered as Mike slapped into the side of the building and was immediately capture by guards.
"That's my boy." Betsy said simply. "Even if he is a bit mauled right now."
"Can you get a bead on him?" Lance asked.
"Yea. I got him." Betsy said simply as X-Factor grabbed on to her. "Everyone please keep your hands and feet inside the ride at all times. Any loss luggage will not be replaced." Betsy quipped as she shadow walked them inside the building, where they were about to cut out Mike's eyes.
"Not the eyes!" Mike shouted as the guy with the scalpel shrugged and moved towards his nether regions. "OKAY!!! TAKE THE EYES!" Mike then screamed.
"Those are mine!" Betsy shouted as she knocked the doctor out with a blast of TK.
"Thanks Bets." Mike gasped as X-Factor freed him.
"Okay, we're in. Lets find Sublime and take him out." Forge said simply.
"Sounds like a plan." Blob muttered. "Where is he?"
"Good question." Forge mused as he looked around.
********************
One Hour later
"We've been in this hallway before." Betsy muttered.
"Shut up." Forge demanded as he looked around. "We've been running around for an hour now. Sublime could have taken off by now." Forge thought.
"Damn." Lance muttered. "We should Abort now and come up with some more ideas." Lance said before the wall behind him exploded. As the dust settled, X-Factor stared through the hole.
"Okay, whose got the brass set?" X demanded as her claws popped out.
"That would be me." Came the deep voice from behind the hole as a man emerged from the wall. He was at least 8 feet tall, and blue. His white hair blew in the untamed winds as he hefted a great saber up onto his shoulder. "I am Vargas, and on behalf on John Sublime I am to kill you." Vargas said with a smile.
"Wonderful." Pietro muttered.
"There is a man who has eaten alot of beef." Toad quipped.
