Quote of the day- 'You are a sad, strange little man!'

Westchester: New York-

There is a flash of light and our three heroes, Wade Wilson: Aka the Merc- With-A-Mouth known as Deadpool, Betsy Braddock: Aka the British telepath and former X-Woman known as Psylocke and Angelo Espinosa: Aka the former Generation X-er known as Skin.

'Why are we in Westchester, of all places?' Wade asks.

'We are in Westchester because we need to recruit Jubilee for our group!' Betsy answers him.

'Look!' Angelo says, pointing to the big mansion before them. 'It's Xavier's!'

'Gee!' Wade quips. 'What gave you that idea? The big sign saying 'Xavier's School For Higher Learning?'

'Wade, don't be such an ass!' Betsy tells her companion.

Wade fixes Betsy with a wicked smile.

'Does it make you horny?'

Betsy just shakes her head.

'Randy?' Wade continues.

Betsy still ignores him.

'Do I make you horny baby? Yeah, do I?'

'Yes Wade.' Betsy sighs. 'You make me exceptionally randy now shut up!'

Wade turns to Angelo.

'Did you hear that kiddo?' he asks. 'I make Betsy randy!'

'I think she was being sarcastic!' Angelo says matter-of-factly as he and Betsy walk through the gate to Xavier's.

Wade is left all by himself.

'Oh!'

Betsy walks up to the door and knocks. The three heroes are left waiting for a couple of seconds before someone answers. The door opens and a blond head pokes out.

'Yes, how may I help you?' The blond woman (who just happens to be Paige Guthrie, another former Generation X-er and now a fully fledged member of the X-Men) asks, not realising who the visitors are. She then takes a closer look and her eyes pop open in surprise. 'Oh mah Gawd!' She yells as she slams the door in their faces.

'Not the kind of reaction you were hoping for huh?' Wade asks.

Several moments later, the door opens again. This time it is Professor Xavier.

'It is nice to see you Betsy.' He says, uncertainly. 'We all thought you were dead!'

'I was Professor.' Betsy answers him. 'But I got better!'

'And Mister Espinosa.' Xavier says to Angelo. 'You were dead too!'

'I'm back and ready to party!' Angelo smiles.

Xavier turns to Wade.

'And you must be Wade Wilson. Logan's told me all about you!'

'I hope it's all good!' wade nervously smirks.

'Why don't you all come in?' Xavier asks them.

'I thought you'd never ask.' Wade mumbles.

'Professor!' Betsy gasps. 'You're walking!'

'My legs we healed by a Mutant called Xorn, who happened to be Magneto in disguise!'

'Just a normal day at the office huh? Wade asks.

The Rec Room-

Paige is now sitting in the Rec Room with the rest of the X-Men, Warren Worthington (Archangel), Bobby Drake (Iceman), Jubilee, Kurt Wagner (Nightcrawler) and Logan (Wolverine). They all look up as Xavier walks in with Betsy, Wade and Angelo.

As soon as Jubilee sees the newly resurrected Angelo, she runs up and gives him a huge hug.

'Oh Angelo!' She says with teary eyes. 'I thought that Id never see you again!'

'Think nothing of it chica!' Angelo says, patting Jubilee's head lovingly. 'I got brought back from the dead so I could be with you. That's if you want to be with me.'

'Of course I do ya silly jerk!' Jubilee sniffs.

Angelo smiles and kisses Jubilee on the forehead.

'Lo Warren.' Betsy says to her former boyfriend. 'I'm back. And you're not blue any more!'

'Long story!' The winged X-Man says. 'You've got your old body back!'

'One of the perks of being brought to life I suppose!'

'Isn't anyone going to welcome me?' Wade asks the room.

As if in answer, there is a 'SNIKT!' as Logan gets up and glares at him.

'Why are ya here Wilson?' He growls.

Wade holds up his hands in defence.

'Whoa there camel! I'm not here for a hit. I'm just here with the grey kid ant my new girlfriend to recruit Jubilee for our gang!'

'Best's WHAT?' The whole room choruses.

'I'm with Wade now.' Betsy tells anyone. She looks at Warren. 'Don't look so shocked Warren! I'm not the one going out with someone half my age!'

'How did you know?' Warren splutters.

'I'm a telepath remember?'

'Oh yeah!'

Kurt gets up and gives Betsy a hug.

'No matter what the others say or who you are now dating, I'm glad that you're back!'

'Thanks Kurt!' Betsy says, returning the hug.

'Does Brian know that you're back?' Kurt asks.

'Not yet.' Betsy answers him. 'We're going to get a permanent residence somewhere, then I'll tell him.'

'Why don't you stay here?' Bobby asks.

'No offence or anything guys.' Betsy answers. 'But I thought that I'd retire from the hero biz for a while. Wade wants to set up a detective agency and Angelo and I are going to help!'

'What about Jubilee?' Angelo asks. 'That's why we're here, to recruit her.'

'If that's alright with Jubilee and the Professor.' Betsy answers.

'Is that alright with you Jubilee?' Xavier asks.

'I don't care what I do!' Jubilee smiles tearfully. 'It only matter's that Angelo is alive!'

Later-

After several hours of catching up on recent events (Xavier 'outing' the X- Men, the riot at the school, the destruction of Genosha, the reappearance of Magneto and the death of Jean Grey) Betsy, Wade, Angelo and now Jubilee are carrying Jubilee's luggage to a car that Xavier has kindly lent them.

'Bet you five bucks that Summers meets another evil clone!' Wade mutters to Betsy. Betsy glares at Wade and swats him on the arm. This then causes him to lose his balance, making him fall over dropping jubilee's suitcase.

Paige walks up and gives Jubilee and Angelo a big hug.

'Any idea where you're going?' She asks.

'Wade wants to set up shop in the city.' Angelo answers her.

'I'll miss you!' Paige sniffs as she gives them another hug.

'Hey chill Hayseed!' Jubilee tells her friend. 'We'll only be a coupla hours down the road! You can come visit anytime you want!'

'Good luck Short Stuff!' An unusually tear-filled Logan tells Jubilee, also giving her a hug.

'Take care of yourself Wolvie!' She tells him.

Logan then turns to Angelo and fixes him with a mean stare.

'Look after her Espinosa or.' SNIKT!

'Understood Mister Logan!' Angelo nervously smirks.

Behind them, Wade can be heard beeping the horn impatiently.

'Come on people!' he yells. 'We haven't got all day! I wanna get gone sometime soon!'

Betsy shakes her head from the driver's seat.

Jubilee and Angelo wave goodbye to the others and run over to Wade and Betsy in the car.

'All set everyone?' Wade asks.

'Ready and raring!' Jubilee answers him.

Wade turns to Betsy.

Number two.' He says. 'Engage!'

He bursts into fits of giggles as Betsy starts up the engine.

'What's so funny?' She asks.

'Heheh! I said 'Number Two!' Wade giggles.

Betsy, Angelo and Jubilee just shake their heads as they drive out of Xavier's and into their new life as private investigators!
