What a Scion can really do
As it was the Scion known as Perfection was effectively wooing and winning the heart of the young mutant girl Wanda Maximoff. He had been visiting with his friends for well over a week, and it looked as if they would be staying a bit longer or at least Perfection would. Today however was not a day that anyone would be concerned with that, because the Scions were taking the X-Men and the Misfits to the lovely beaches of California, courtesy of K2.
As the two groups piled out of the massive robot form of K2 they couldn't help but notice the bareness of the beach. Along with the fact that most of the people there were mutants.
"What gives?" Todd asked as he jerked his thumb towards the beach and the people.
"Talk to DM, apparently he got the mayor to close the beach to anyone but mutants today." Wraith said in his usual monotone voice. "I need a beer…"
"Yeah, now that's how you get a beach party started!" Shipwreck said with to much enthusiasm.
"Pops…" Althea gave a warning tone. "Behave."
"THE BEACH!" Perfection popped out of K2 horizontally and ran along the his surface until he got to the beach. "WOOOHOOO!" he said as he began to jump around like a lunatic and made his way to the water.
"Well that was unusually tame of him." K2 said with some awe. Then he noticed Wanda looking out at Perfection with a confused look. "Beaches are like magnets for him." Wanda just nodded.
"Well we should be enjoying today. Don't you think Hawk?" Xavier asked the leader of the Joes.
"Yup." He then looked up at DM who was still in the cockpit of K2. "Can you make him smaller now?"
"Sure." DM said as the giant robot shrunk down to a sports car. "No hitting on the Pontiacs." DM said as he got out.
"I DON'T HIT ON CARS!" K2 yelled from inside.
"He he he." DM chuckled as he walked away and shifted his clothes to a bathing suit with zeros and ones.
"Well that doesn't surprise me." Logan said as he watched DM run to the beach.
"Lets move out!" Althea shouted as the Misfits stormed onto the beach.
"Let's go!" Scott shouted as he ran forward with the X-Men following him.
"Think they can avoid a fight today?" Hawk asked Xavier.
"I hope so, but if not we do have the emergency stash." Xavier smiled as Hank held up a case of wine.
"Ah, good thinking." Hawk nodded.
An hour later both the X-Men and the Misfits were massively enjoying themselves. Even the babies were having fun in the water, of course they had Perfection playing with them.
"Wow, he's good with babies." Kitty said as she watched Perfection make a submarine out of sand.
"With his pet he has to be." Wanda said nonchalantly.
"He has a pet!" Kitty asked in surprise. "Is it a cute little puppy?"
"No." Wanda gave Kitty a sideways look. "It's a imp."
"An imp, you mean like a demon?" Kitty blinked in confusion.
"Yeah, he says he wants to teach it not to kill when it grows up." Wanda had opened one of her books and was reading.
And although it seemed like everyone was having a good time there was one person who just couldn't get into the feeling. Of course considering that her touch was potentially lethal, it stood as no surprise that she was still fully dressed. Rogue was effectively miserable.
"What, you're not going to have some fun?" Wraith said as he sat on the opposite side of the picnic table Rogue was at.
"Hello, touch of death." Rogue waved he hand.
"Hello… Scion of Death." Wraith said with a sarcastic edge.
"Then why aren't you having fun?" Rogue gave him a look.
"Who said I wasn't?" Wraith said.
"Exactly." Rogue said.
"Don't make me drag you to the water." Wraith said in all seriousness.
"Again, touch of death." Rogue said her anger rising.
"Yoink." It was all Wraith said as he reached inside Rogue and then pulled his arm out. "Go have fun, no more absorbing powers for today."
"What?" Rogue asked in shock. "What did you do?"
"I turned off the absorbing powers for a day, go have fun." Wraith said as he sipped a margarita.
"You mean you guys could always do that?" Rogue asked as her eye began to tick.
"Yeah butt it'll only last for a day." Wraith said calmly as he transformed Rogue's clothes into a stunning two piece bathing suite. Almost immediately Remy was running towards her.
"Chere looks sexy." The Cajun smiled.
"I turned her powers off for the day so…" Before Wraith could finish the two were running into the water. "Ah, young love."
"Yes, it is beautiful isn't it." A familiar voice said from behind Wraith.
"Hello Karma." Wraith's look immediately darkened. He turned to see his ex in her usual appearance. A dark skinned woman with flaming red hair and purple eyes, barely five feet tall. She was wearing jeans and an orange tank top to boot.
"I just wanted you to know, I think what you're doing is very kind." She said sweetly. "It reminds me the way you used to treat me."
Wraith got up and began to walk away. "I never stopped treating you 'that way', I only began treating you as you acted. Like a child."
"I was just getting used to my powers." Karma said with a sigh. "I'm sorry."
"So am I." Wraith said as he floated away towards the beach.
"So you're back." DM said as he appeared at the table with Perfection. Perfection was in his bright red swim trunks and flopping around like a fish out of water.
"Perfection you never change." Karma giggled. "Hello DM."
"You know he still hasn't gotten over you." Perfection said with a grin.
"Nor has he forgiven her." DM reminded the Scion of Chaos.
"True, but she did dump him rather harshly." Perfection said. "Now if you'll excuse me I must return to watching the little ones." With that Perfection was back to playing with Claudius and Beaky.
"I just wish he could forgive me." Karma sighed. "He was the first person to ever show me kindness in such a way. The first person to call me beautiful."
"Give him time. He still loves you, but you hurt him pretty bad. And the constant dropping of heavy and unexplained objects on him doesn't help."
Karma smile weakly. "I suppose you're right…"
"Stick around though, have some fun, introduce yourself." DM said as he walked back to K2 to grab a few things. "K2 I THOUGHT I SAID NO HITTING ON THE CARS!" DM screamed as he saw his friend hitting on sever sport coupes.
"Gothca." K2 said with a chuckle as he opened the door.
Back at the beach though Karma was busy meeting the JOEs, Misfits and the X-Men. She seemed to shy away from getting near Wraith though.
"Hello." Karma said as she introduced herself to Kurt who was not wearing his inducer and Amanda, who had come along for the trip. "I am Karma, the Scion of Balance and you are?"
"My name's Kurt and this is my girlfriend Amanda." Kurt introduced himself and Amanda. "Nice to meet another Scion." He smiled nervously.
"Oh don't worry these three are as crazy as us scions get." Karma chuckled sensing the boy's small fear.
"Oh, well that's a relief." Kurt sighed.
"Yes, well I was just wondering how you two were doing." Karma said with a smile.
"Uh, ok I guess. Why?" Kurt asked nervously
"You two just seem so happy, it reminded me of when Wraith and I were together." She sighed.
"You and…" Kurt looked down the beach at Wraith who was lying in a hammock. "Wow, he seems so impersonal." Kurt almost choked on his tongue. "I mean sad…" He was very nervous now.
"He can be a bit rough at times, but deep down there's a flame that can never be burnt out." Karma sighed again. "I'll leave you two alone now. Bye." She said as she walked away.
"She seemed pretty sad." Amanda observed as Karma walked away.
"Yeah." Kurt agreed. "I think I remember DM saying something about Wraith having one really bad break up. I guess that was her."
Further down the beach Bobby was busy getting buried in the sand by an angry mob of the X-Men girls, Jaime and Trinity. For once something he didn't do was the cause.
"All right where's the watch?" Quinn asked as she scooped more sand on to the helpless Bobby.
"I don't know what you're talking about!" Bobby screamed as a huge wave came crashing down onto the beach.
"What was that!" Jean gasped as the wave receded. "Lance!" She shouted accusingly.
"Not me! Honest!" Lance said.
"Althea?" Jean asked curiously.
"Not me." Althea said as she looked out into the ocean. "What's that?" Althea asked pointing to a strange lump that was out in the distant ocean.
"That would be…" DM said as he appeared with K2 on the beach, "One of Therten's little toys. He's starting already."
DM's face took a serious turn as the lump rose out of the water to reveal itself as a giant armored turtle with a mouth of fangs. One could easily mistake it for an evil looking Gamera, but this turtle had no engines. It did however have the ability to breath massive fireballs. And it did just that as one fireball landed on a group of innocent bystander who had not been paying attention.
"Goddess!" Storm screamed as she saw the fireball land.
"NOT TODAY!" Wraith bellowed as the people ran out of the fire, unharmed. Wraith's eyes began to glow an ominous white as he appeared before the beast. "No death's are to happen here beast I suggest you leave." It responded by roaring in his face. "Very well…" Wraith turned back to look at Perfection. "Get them out of here!"
As Perfection was about to lead them away from the beach; however, a large pack of massive coyotes appeared. They to were obviously tainted by some dark power. Perfection immediately thought to teleport them away from the scene but for some reason his teleportation ability was jammed.
"No can do Wraith!" Perfection said as he cast a strange orb around everyone. "DM take the freaks out!" Perfection yelled as one of the coyotes rammed itself into the orb causing it to shake. The strength of the attack almost caused Perfection to loose his hold on the shield. That alone got him worried.
Then with deadly accuracy and precision several orbs impacted the coyotes. "Eat RGB CANNON FREAKS!" DM yelled as several more orbs left from his direction. "KEEP THEM SAFE!" DM shouted.
"Gee, ya think!" Perfection shout back sarcastically as he rolled his eyes and braced the shiled as a flame ball impacted it.
