Chapter 21

Magneto, Mystic, Pyro and their new team member Von Doom, walked out onto the streets. They had to draw the Fantastic Four out of the Baxster Building. That shouldn't be too hard, considering they would come running at the first sign of someone getting hurt.

Johnny, Reed, Sue and Ben walked down the streets of New York City. A couple people ran up asking for their autographs and to have their picture taken with the famous superhereos. They continued their way to their favourite diner for a coffee. As they headed to the diner they walked past a TV sale store. They stood there, shocked of who they saw on TV. All the TV's in the window had the news on. All showed an oldish man wearing a funny looking helmet, he seemed to be holding a bus full of passengers in the air. Along side of him stood a blue woman, who looked a little like a sea creature, Pyro and...Victor Von Doom.

'Let me guess?...' started Johnny.

'We are in serious trouble' finished Sue.

Charlie walked around the corner of block and heard screams. She ran to the sound. Magneto, Mystic, Pyro and someone else that she had never seen were underneath a elevated bus. Passengers inside screamed for help. News crew were at a distance, with spectators in awe. Police sirens sounded and came flying around the corner. Magneto used his free hand and flipped one of the cop cars. Pyro open his lighter and set another cop car alight. The new memeber of the team used his power, which looked to be electricity on the last cop car.

Police aren't going to stop them, thought Charlie. I have to fight fire with fire. She walked up to the commotion.

'Magneto' she yelled. He turned and smiled.

'Flame! I was wondering when someone would show up to save the day' said Magneto.

Charlie clicked on to what he had just said. 'This is a set up' she stated.

Magneto laughed. 'You are a smart girl, Pyro was right, but sadly not smart enough. You see the Fantastic Four will be on their way, I persume. Now with the help of Doom' he said extending his free hand, gesturing to the masked man. 'We now can end the Fantastic Four and then Xaviers school is next.'

'Not on my watch' said Charlie. She lit her hands on fire.

'Look she has powers too' exclaimed an innocent from the sidelines.

'Mystic' said Magneto.

Mystic smiled and morphed into Charlie.

'You bitch' said Charlie.

Mystic ran up to Charlie, ready to fight. Charlie hurled a fire ball at Mystic. Mystic grabbed the fireball and it vanished as she closed her hand into a fist.

'Shit' said Charlie.

Mystic threw a punch, Charlie dodged it and elbowed Mystic hard in the ribs. She winced with pain, but continued to fight Charlie. More sirens came and Pyro fought them off. Shattering glass flew aroung Mystic and Charlie. Flame covered her face. Mystic took the opportunity to take Charlie down. She got Charlie into a head lock.

'After I've killed you' Mystic started. 'I'm going to show Johnny is was me kissing Pyro and then kill him and the rest of the little team. We'll see how fantastic they are then.'

Charlie fought, trying to get out of Mystics head lock.

'Then we are going to pay Xaviers a little visit' she continued.

Charlie was filled withanger now. The Fantastic Four were her friends. Xaviers was like her family. She loved Johnny and had told him. She couldn't go a get killed. Not after telling him that. She wasn't going to let all that she cared for be takan away. Mystic had made a bad decision to get her in a head lock. ack always got Charlie into head locks. So she was quite skilled of getting out of them. Her hazel eyes filled with rage. They sparkled alite and turned red, orange and yellow. She swung her leg around and hit Mystic in the back of her knee. She fell to her knees and let go of Charlie. Charlie turned around and kicked Mystic hard in the stomach. Something Wolverine had taught her in self defense. Mystic fell backwards and hit her head on the streets kerb, knocking her unconcious. Doom had seen this.

The Fantastic Four ran around the corner, opposite to were Charlie had come from. They had their costumes on. They were about 50 meters from Charlie. Her eyes locked with Johnny's. He looked back at her and then to the figure on the ground that looked actually the same. Both had a dark purple tank top on, with her black bra straps visible. The even had the same black, frilly skirt on that went rose above her knees. They double slowly changed into, the blue creature she was before, but still layed there, not moving. Doom came up behind Charlie. She hadn't noticed. He electricified her. She screamed with pain and fell suddenly to the ground. She fell into the shattered glass from the cop cars. Blood ran down her face, as a piece of cut her forehead. Another piece of glass slashed her arm and shoulder, blood began to seep onto her lifeless back.

'Charlie!' yelled Johnny. Charlie wasn't moving. Johnny ran up to her. 'Your gonna pay Doom' exclaimed Johnny, angrilly.
