SHE'S BACK! Hey! Why are you all screaming and running for the hills? Anyway, since I get seem to get the battle just right I'm skipping it and if you have a problem with that than well what do you know. So now that we've covered that you can now learn about our new team! Yay! Oh and in case you're wondering, the X-Men lost. I know, surprise surprise…now on with the story! (disappears and suddenly reappears) And I don't own anything! Yet!

"I can't believe we lost to those son of a…"

"Bobby!"

Robert Louis Drake (I just love calling him that) turned to see Ororo behind with both hands on her hips and her blue eyes get darker by the second.

"…Jackals! I can't believe we lost to those son of a jackals!"

Ororo's glare lightened but as she walked by him she sent a tiny lighting bolt his way as a warning.

"Nice save, Drake." Jubilee whispered. Bobby just grinned.

On the other side of the table…

"We lost."

"We know Scott." Jean said as she rubbed her temples to ease the oncoming migraine that had started because of her stupefied boyfriend.

"I can't believe we lost."

"Scott, it'll be okay."

"But we lost!"

"WE ALL THAT WE LOST SCOTT! NOW SHUT THE HELL UP BEFORE I MAKE YOU BELIEVE THAT YOUR TWO YEARS OLD AND YOU GO AROUND WEARING DIAPERS FOR THE REST OF YOUR LIFE!"

Everyone turned to look at Jean as she smoothed down her shirt and sat back down.

The professor shook his head and shuffled the papers in his hands.

"The New Hellfire…"

The three words instantly silenced the entire room. A holographic image was pulled up and the X-Men saw once again the leader of their enemy.

"Shinobi Shaw; 19; son of Sebastian Shaw, leader of the Hellfire Club; has the ability to manipulate the solidity of his molecular structure which in result allow him to have increased strength and durability, shift into an intangible state to pass through solid objects or remove parts of objects from the whole and scramble its operation."

"Benazir Kaur; 16; controls the metabolic systems of other people in order to hasten the effects of bacterium, toxins, or carcinogens within the cells so that they become disabled."

" Reeva Payge; 15; emits hypersonic notes from her vocal chords that warp the human brain's neurochemistry in order to scramble the sensory perceptions."

"Andrea and Andreas von Strucker; 18; twins with symbiotic energy-generation powers that allow them to complete a genetic link when in physical contact with each other to project blasts of concussive force; Andrea generates bio-electrical discharges while Andreas generates plasma bolts."

"Gamesmaster; real name unknown; 18; an omnipath whose mind is constantly in contact with every conscious being on the planet which grants him vast psychic powers that allow him to read any thought in the world, control others actions, and manipulate the mental aspect of reality."

"Trevor Fitzroy; 18; drains the life energy from others upon contact, metabolizing it into types of chronal energy which allows him to freeze people within moments of time, reverse or accelerate their personal timeframe, and open portals that allow travel through time and space."

"Siena Blaze; 17; has the ability to disrupt the stability of Earth's electromagnetic field which allows her to create massive amounts of explosive power, scramble E.M. impulses, levitate along magnetic ley lines, and teleport across the Earth's surface which creates a vacuum implosion of energy."

"Fabian Cortez; 18; focuses his own mutagentic characteristic into bursts of energy that act as a hypercharge for other mutants i.e. increasing their power or overloading their genetic traits with so much energy that they lose complete control."

Professor Charles Xavier looked up at his students and sighed.

"This," He said as he held up the files in his hand and threw them on the table, " is what we're up against. I have every bit of hope and faith that I posses that you can defeat them. However, it will not be easy. Starting tomorrow, you will have extra danger room sessions after dinner or whenever Logan sees convenient, but this power will not be abused," He stated throwing a pointed look at the feral mutant, "Dismissed."

Once all the children had left, Ororo turned the professor with worry in her eyes.

"What are we going to do, Charles?"

"I don't know my dear. I don't know."

Meanwhile in Boston, a celebration was being held in honor of the New Hellfire's victory; the first of many.

Alright, well the next chapter will be coming soon and it will be about the big shindig at the Hellfire Club. I also have decided to add some of my own characters to this story (and some of yours if you wish to send them to me). Here's my first one:

Codename: Pirate

Name: Ava Cash

Powers: The ability to control all monetary objects (coins, dollars, etc.) and manipulate them.

Send me a review and tell me what you think! Much Love, Echo 
