We do not the song "Faint" by Linkin Park, but it is used in this chapter. This is probably the most graphic part of this story so read on and enjoy! PLEASE REVIEW!
Magneto stopped at the front porch of the Brotherhood house. He knocked on the door and put his hand on the railing on the stair leading to the door which immediately snapped off. He casually stepped off to the side and began whistling. Heavy metal coming from inside the dilapidated house prevented the Brotherhood boys from hearing the knock on the door. Magneto opened the door which was carelessly unlocked. As he walked in the living room he saw that they had turned it into a recording studio using obviously stolen equipment. Lance had the lead guitar, Pietro was at the drums, Toad was the disc jockey, and Blob was singing. They were too busy playing to notice Magneto's rude entrance.
Blob was singing, "I can't feel the way I did before, don't turn your back on me I WON'T BE IGNORED!" Toad finally noticed Magneto and immediately started pointing towards him, but the others were too involved with the music to see. Magneto cleared his throat to get their attention, but nobody could hear. Then he tried stamping his feet, clapping his hands, and running in circles, but all failed.
Finally, Magneto tried yelling, "Okay, HEAR ME OUT NOW! YOU'RE GONNA LISTEN TO ME LIKE IT OR NOT RIGHT NOW!" The music stopped right away.
"Damn…" Lance mumbled putting his guitar down.
"Excuse me?" Magneto asked Lance.
"Wait, what did you say?" Pietro asked.
"I said damn," Lance repeated.
"No! Not you! Magneto what did you yell?"
"I said hear me out now, you're gonna listen to me like it or not right now, that's all okay! Jeez!" Pietro started scribbling on a piece of paper. "What are you writing?" Magneto inquired, "Are you going to use this against me in court?"
"No, it's good," Pietro mumbled. Passing the paper to Lance he said, "Let's add this into the song."
"Yeah! It's great, we could add it in right here," Lance agreed.
"What are you doing?" Magneto asked, but was cut off by the music starting up again. Magneto stared in wonder as his words were added to the song.
Blob screamed, "HEAR ME OUT NOW! YOU'RE GONNA LISTEN TO ME LIKE OR NOT RIGHT NOW! I can't feel the way I did before don't turn your back on me I WON'T BE IGNORED!" The music stopped abruptly.
"That works great, yo!" Toad said.
"Thanks pops! That was perfect," Pietro added. Magneto froze and slowly turned to his son, shaking with anger. Pietro gulped, he knew he had crossed the line.
"PIETRO! WHAT THE HELL DID YOU CALL ME!" Magneto yelled.
"Uhh, n-nothing," Pietro simpered.
"That's what I thought," Magneto said. "Now I am sure you are all wondering what I'm doing here in the first place," he continued addressing the whole brotherhood, "and I'm here to ask you for your assistance in retrieving the Acolytes.
"They bailed on ya, oh that's cold," Toad joked. Magneto thrust Lance's guitar, using his powers, into Toad's chest, which propelled him across the room slamming him into the wall. "My heart!" Toad screamed.
"My guitar!" Lance screamed. Magneto cackled as blood started to pour from Toad's beating heart. He groaned as he sunk to the floor.
With his last dying breath Toad muttered, "Yo…" Pietro and Lance's faces paled and they rushed over to Toad's dead body.
Blob just stood there for a few seconds before saying, "I think I'll go make a samich now…" as he wandered off into the kitchen. Lance pulled his guitar out of Toad and stared at his broken, bloody instrument.
"Why must it end this way? You and me rocked hard!" Lance cried clutching his guitar.
"Oh, please! You can just steal a new one, I'm sure," Magneto calmly said disregarding the fact that he had just committed murder.
Lance glared at Magneto for a few minutes and finally said, "You killed our DJ and my guitar and you expect us to HELP YOU!"
Magneto glared right back at Lance for a few seconds before replying, "Yes." At that moment Blob walked back in with a sandwich.
"Oh my God! Todd's DEAD!" Blob fell to the ground, sobbing uncontrollably, "He was my best friend!"
"Now I hope you will join me in the search for my Acolytes unless you want to suffer the same fate as your friend," Magneto threatened.
"As long as you get me a new guitar!" Lance demanded. Magneto rolled his eyes and walked out of the house. "I'm serious!" Lance yelled running after him with Blob and Pietro. They all climbed into the floating orbs and they were off to Las Vegas.
Mystique walked into the Brotherhood house 20 minutes later to find it in a state of chaos. Band equipment was thrown everywhere and Toad's dead body was placed neatly in the corner of the living room.
Mystique dropped her groceries on the floor and roared, "WHAT HAS HAPPENED?" She stormed all around the house only to find it was completely devoid of life. Mystique's blue nostrils flared and she yelled at Toad's carcass, "WHERE DID EVERYBODY GO?" Suddenly there was a knock at the door. After quickly transforming, Mystique opened the door to find two cops, "May I help you?" she asked sweetly.
