A Misfit Halloween!

To Sparky Genocide: Hey there Sparky! Hmmm, instead of the three Stooges and the Marx Brothers, they bring about Slimer and Casper? I like Slimer, but not Casper. Thanks a lot! I'll see what I can do with that! Enjoy the new chapter, man!

To mattb3671: Hey there, matt! I read the new chapter of "X-Men is Australian for Mutant" and I loved it! Yeah, the Scorpions rock! I have a CD full of some of their best songs. "The Zoo" is one of my favorite songs. That whole Skeeter thing is actually a tribute to SouthPark, one of my favorite cartoon shows. It's about the misadventures of these four 4th grade boys. One's Jewish, another's a smart-alec racist, a third is a perverted poor kid who dies all the time, and the fourth is the leader. It's a real funny show. What the heck is going to happen next chapter? Why don't we find out? Enjoy the new chapter!

To Red Witch: Hey there Red Witch! I read the new chapters of "This Soap Opera Called Life" and I loved them! Man, James is in big trouble now! And Stryker hasn't his lesson yet, all just like the comics. Enjoy the new chapter, Red! I hope you like it!

To Raliena: Hey there Rae! Yeah, the Misfit Boys are in trouble indeed! I'm glad you liked the last chapter, and I hope you like this new chapter!

To Kaishin Briefs: Hey there Kai! I read your first chapter of "Enter the Cyclonus" and I like it! I copied and pasted it to a new file, edited it, and e-mailed it to you. I hope you like what I did with it. I wasn't sure what kind of hair he had, so I made it short and dark. I hope you don't mind. To be honest, I think John, Lance, Jake, and Fred would provide quite a challenge for the mysterious woman with the arrows of blue fire. I'm glad you liked seeing Lina mock Thunderbolt. She deserves it after all the stuff he's said about her. I'm sure the Pit will be in quite a frenzy when they see the ghosts. Enjoy the new chapter!

Disclaimer: We're sorry. The disclaimer is not with us right now because it ate Jean's cooking (Jean: HEY!!!).

Chapter 7: Realization!

A road outside Joe's Pool Hall

"YEOW!!!" Lance screamed as he dodged a blue fire arrow. The mysterious fur-clad horseback woman fired her arrows continuously at the four Misfit Boys.

"That's it! I've had enough!" Jake scowled. He took to the air. The wrestler's son flew high, then dive-bombed down toward the woman, intent on driving her into the ground with a clothesline. "Eat forearm, lady WHAT?!" He flew right through the woman, and barely managed to pull up in time. "Guys! I went right through her! I think she's got powers like Kitty!"

"She's dressed like a Mongol." John blinked. "No matter, mates. Me powers will roast her beef!" John flicked open his lighter. "Eat flame!" Using his pyrokinesis, the Australian Misfit caused the small lighter flame to fire a huge jet of flame. The flame jet passed through the woman, making her chuckle.

"That tickled, little man."

"Uh oh." Fred blinked.

"If a fissure don't take her down, nothing will!" Lance roared, stomping his foot on the ground.

The Pit

"OH MY GOD!!!" Pietro screamed as he ran around in a circle in a panic. "What-do-we-do-what-do-we-do-what-do-we-do-what-do-we-do-what-do-we-do-what-do-we-do-what-do-we-do-what-do-we-do-what-do-we-do-what-do-we-do-what-do-we-do-OWWWW!!!!" A crate fell on top of him.

"What? He was getting annoying." Wanda explained to Althea. A battle raged around our heroes. The Joes and Misfits were fighting a strange man clad like a Roman Centurion. And the Centurion was winning.

"You do have a point." Althea shrugged.

"We can't scratch him!" Angelica screamed. "Yeow!" She dodged a spear of blue fire. "What is up with this guy?!"

"Nothing works on him!" Lina added. She eyed something flying in the air. "What is that thing? Is that…a…a…a biplane?"

"Biplane?" Angelica looked in Lina's direction. "Biplanes are only used in stunt shows now! Why would anyone be flying a biplane here?!"

"Don't ask me! Ask the lunatic up there!" Lina replied. Ace and Bulldog flew by in F-15s.

"We got this one!" Ace said. "Okay, buddy! Who are you!" Ace yelled into his radio. The pilot of the WWI-era biplane only responded with firing bullets at our heroes. "YIKES!!!"

"I thought that was a bloody ghost plane!" Bulldog blinked in confusion.

"Not anymore!" Ace yelped. "Hey, what?!" He noticed several bullet holes on his tail fin. "No way! Bulldog, you shot my tail!"

"Me?! None of me shots even flew in your bloody direction!" Bulldog snapped. The English Joe realized something. "Wait a minute…the ghost plane! It fired bullets in your direction! I think a couple hit!"

"A ghost plane firing physical bullets?!" Ace exclaimed. "That's impossible! No way! That means that the plane has to be real!"

"Ghosts come from the same bloody area as other metaphysical stuff, like magic." Bulldog rolled his eyes. "You know, like Mordred and Morgan Le Fey."

"Who is Mordred and Morgan Le Fey?" Ace blinked. Bulldog sighed.

"Mordred was Merlin's arch-nemesis and Morgan Le Fey was King Arthur's daughter." Bulldog explained.

"Oh." Ace blinked. "What are you saying then, you Brit?"

"I'm no expert on this stuff, but I think that magic may be involved. Think about it: Ghost soldiers able to trash physical tanks, ghost pilots able to shoot down physical jet planes, it all makes sense!"

"You've been hanging around Dr. Strange too long, Bulldog." Ace laughed.

"Well then, how do you explain it, Ace?" Bulldog smirked. Ace stammered as he tried to come up with some explanation for what's been going on. "I see you are having trouble explaining it."

"Oh shut up." Jester grumbled.

"You and your strange metal machines shall fall for the glory of the Empire!" The Centurion roared, pitching a spear of silver fire. The spear hit a tank and exploded. Many rounds of tracer bullets flew through the Roman warrior's body, but they had no effect.

"What is this guy made out of?!" Shipwreck snapped.

"Maybe's he a mutant with intangibility like Kitty." Althea offered. "Where are Red Dragon, Avalanche, Pyro, and Blob?!"

"They never came back!" Wanda exclaimed. "What?" She heard her watch bleep. "Yeah?"

"Wanda! This is Bulldog! Look in your spellbook collection and find out all you can about ghosts! Trust me on this, Wanda!" Bulldog exclaimed over the watch's radio link.

"Uh…if you say so." Wanda blinked.

"Ghosts? What is going on here?" Althea groaned.

"And why do I get a weird feeling of déjà vu?" Shipwreck groaned.

Well, well, well! Looks like Bulldog may be on to something! What insanity will happen next? What is up with that Centurion? Can the boys rejoin the other Misfits and stop the strange woman? Find out in the next chapter! Suggestions needed badly!
