Chapter Title: Kedo Asa (Elixir)
Disclaimer: I own nothing from X-Men Evolution. It's a great show, I'd suggest for everyone to at least watch one episode…
Warning: First off, this story is most certainly an alternate universe to the main one, in order to include my friends' and my original characters. Next, there will be some angst, which occurs in all of my stories, and even more fluff in between of the action…
Rating: For the preludes and first chapters, P.G. This story will eventually be rated R, but we'll have to work up to that…
Pairings: None in this chapter.
Author's Notes: Alright, I've decided that the first chapters will be individual ones that are going to introduce all of the MAIN original characters that are new to this story. However, since there are twenty-five in all, I most certainly won't be going through them all right now. You'll find about some of them when I actually introduce them to the story, so you'll have to wait until then. There are about ten main OCs though, maybe less.
This first one is about Kedo Asa, whose mutation deals with poisons. Wow…like that was so hard to figure out…

"Get HIM to talk."
"But Sir…"
"I don't care by what means you do so, just DO IT! And if he doesn't talk, put him down like the dog he is."
A man wearing a military uniform (A higher up? Could be…) stormed from the simple, dark, drafty, unlit, undecorated room. Two other men, garbed in white lab coats with the acronym AMO printed on the pockets, remained. The 'HIM' that was spoken so freely around and about was a Korean teenager; 'bout nineteen. The clothes he wore were torn up from the scuffle that took place a few days before, when several agents from the Anti-Mutant Organization, which worked in close association with their branch-off Genlabs, raided the apartment flat were he lived and captured him. Since then, he was subjected to the injection of many chemicals in the efforts to make him speak; enough to kill a normal man, but as of yet there was nothing.
The first scientist placed his clipboard down on the table surface in front of him. The mutant was strapped down in a chair across from him, and those dark midnight blue eyes watched him with an almost smug expression in them.
Looking down at the clipboard, the scientist sighed. They would have to try this again…
"Kedo…Asa…right? You heard the commander. He has no patience left, and if you refuse to speak this time, we will have to give you a lethal injection. Please answer our questions, and perhaps we can convince him to prolong your life. Now, we know that you are a part of a gang. We have already captured a few of the others, and they have all tested positive to be mutants. What we would like to know is where is the leader of this said gang you are in, and how many of those in it are mutants."
The mutant, Kedo Asa, merely grinned, but refused once again to answer the scientist. The man shook his head.
"I'm sorry; you had your chance. And to think, a waste of such good study material."
He sighed again, and got up. Snagging the clipboard as he walked out, he motioned for the other scientist standing by the door to do his thing.
The second scientist had been holding a rather large and sinister looking black case, which he thumped down hard on the table's surface. He clicked it open, revealing the shiny surface of a large needle and a clear vial of liquid. Reaching in, he pulled out both the vial and the needle; piercing the top of the vial with the needle and draining it.
"This won't hurt."
He went around to the mutant's side, loosening the guy's bonds in order to have a better shot at a vein. Stabbing the needle into Kedo's arm, he watched as the liquid poison within the needle was pumped into his body.
"There. Nighty night now."
The man turned his back on the mutant, about ready to put the needle back into the case and call up some guys on his cell to clean up the mutant's body; knowing how fast-acting this poison was. It had been specially developed by Genlabs for mutants, but it was also useful for normal people as well. A good, all-around killing tool.
A hand snaked out, gripping the scientist by the throat. A burning fire seemed to lace itself through his body, and the last thing he saw was a pair of midnight blue eyes dancing with amusement.
"Poison? Of all the things to use on me…ah well. Nighty night to you…"
Kedo dropped the body, and stared at it for a long moment. Then he bent down, relieving him of his keys and his coat. Shrugging the coat on, he just had to laugh out-loud to himself…oh, boy, when Lloyd heard about this…
-
Nearly nodding off, the night guard suddenly snapped awake as one of the scientists walked past him. The guy was whistling and twirling his keys around his right index finger. Nothing wrong here. He nodded a good-night to the scientist, who returned the gesture with good humor before walking out into the unlit parking lot. The guard could hear the sound of a car starting up, and then pull out of the lot.
Ah…nothing ever went wrong here…

Author's Notes: Hm…that came out pretty well. It's been a LONG time since I've written an X-Men Evolution story. Oh, this story takes place…somewhere during the first season of the show. I haven't really decided yet, what do you think? It sorta' isn't really anyplace yet until I finally get around to adding the X-Men, Brotherhood, and such. That's be a little while, but as soon as I get through with the character introductions, you'll see where I'm going with all of this. .
Hehe…
Next time: Mizu Rei! Everyone's favorite water manipulator mutant vampire. What! You'll see! –winks-
