Batter Up

As Ash came wandering back into the mansion with the triplets attached both of his legs and waist he was of course not surprised to find two people caked in a hard batter prison. What was surprising though was that even John using a fire axe couldn't break the stuff.

"OK, what is going on here?" Ash panted as he tried to sit in a chair. "Little scamps… off now." The triplets remained firmly locked in place. "Alright I give up, but I'm warning you I just had a block of Gouda this morning…" The triplets immediately detached. "Much better."

"Hey Ash, think you can give this thing ago?" John wiped some sweat from his brow.

"You're joking right? Sorry, I like my chainsaw." Ash chuckled.

"OK then…" John looked around. "Cyke, blast this stuff off them."

"Ok…" Scott looked worried. "Here goes nothing…"

As Scott removed his glasses the two brothers could be heard screaming like mad. When he put his glasses down however, the batter was still caked over them.

"Jeez Kitty, what did you put in that stuff, adamantium?" Todd gawked as a small piece crumbled to the ground from Ed's nose.

"Well they're still stuck in there." Jean tried to pull the batter off with her telekinesis but only succeeded in giving herself a headache.

"Well, on the plus side Cyke gave the kitchen a brand new window." Althea smirked as she pointed to the hole left in the wall by Cyclops' blast.

"Let me try." Tabitha said as she surrounded the two brothers in a small wall of time bombs. They detonated a few seconds later, with the casing still almost completely intact; however Ed's face was now fully visible.

"Oh thank goodness…" Ed then noticed Firestar powering up. "PLEASE GOD NO!" Ed braced himself as a wall of flame engulfed the lower part of the casing, and then a rapid cooling, followed by heat and then cold.

"I don't get it." Forge said as he tapped on the batter casing, "That should have shattered it."

"JUST GET US OUT OF HERE!" Ed screamed.

"Calm down short stuff." Ash yawned as he stood up.

"What! Who are you calling so short that he fits under a giant's sole…" Ed stopped as he heard the chainsaw rev up. "I take it back, I take it back!" A few seconds later the batter casing around him fell to the ground.

"Brother…" Alphonse said as Ash worked the casing off of the tall metal man. "I think we should stay away from the kitchen from now on…"

"Yeah, that's pretty much how everyone else here survives Kitty's cooking." Bobby snickered only to have Kitty punch him in the arm.

"Right." Ed groaned, "We'll be going that way." The two brothers went off in the direction of the rec-room.

"Oh man, was that an exercise." Ash grunted as a beam of light filtered down General Hawk into the kitchen.

Hawk didn't blink once as he surveyed the kitchen. "Misfits?" He asked casually.

"No, Ms. Pretty-in-Pink combined with Misfits." Ash sighed.

"Wow, Kitty's cooking did this?" Hawk was now surprised.

"I'm standing right here you know…" Kitty growled.

"Sorry, but you know…" Hawk stopped himself, "You should take lessons, right."

With a "Hmph" and a pout Kitty turned on her heel and left the room.

"Okay." Hawk then turned to Ash. "You remember that book you gave us to hide?"

"Necronimicon Ex Mortus?" Ashsaid dryly, "Yeah it rings a faint bell, why?"

"Someone just stole it from a room with now doors?" Hawk stated it as it was.

"Well, how'd they do that?" Ash scratched his head in confusion.

"They made their own door." Hawk said blankly, "And now a small town in…"

"Michigan?" Ash tried to guess.

"No, in France is under siege from an army of the undead." Hawk turned to the Misfits, "Time to mobilize."

"Wait…" Ash said as he went for the door, "You want to send kids after Deadites?"

"They can handle themselves in battle." Hawk said, "But we would appreciate your help."

"Well you got my help, but leave the kids out of it, believe me they won't be able to fight off the Deadites." Ash said.

"I'm afraid there is even worse news." Xavier said as he entered with the rest of the X-Men, "Lucas was the one who stole the book."

"How do you know that?" Hawk asked in surprise.

"He sent me this." Xavier placed a small projector on the table and pressed the play button.

"Hello father, look what I've got." Lucas was waving the Necronimicon around. "Of course I'm not so foolish as to use it myself, but I know some one who is. You remember Proteus, don't you?"

The image shifted to a rapidly decaying human body, "We don't have time for this Legion, I need to use that book to find a way to permanently inhabit a body and a good one at that!"

"Well, you heard him father. Ta for now." The image went blank.

"Well that looked lovely." Ash said. "I'm going for my boom-stick now."

"Ok, who is Proteus?" Scott asked.

"Proteus is a mutant who must inhabit the bodies of others to live; unfortunately his inhabiting other bodies causes rapid age and decay." Xavier explained. "His only known weakness is steel and worst of all he is aligned with Legion."

"Ok, so how are we going to do this then?" Ash was back downstairs with his shotgun and several other weapons. "Me, I'm gonna hunt a few Deadite scum buckets and mount a few trophies on my wall…" A series of loud beeps interrupted Ash's speech as Hawk picked up his communicator. "You know most people would consider that rude."

Hawk ignored Ash as he listened to the message relayed from the JOE basem then he turned to the others. "Well, it looks like we have another issue, because somehow Trask got out and is making MORE Sentinels in an abandoned army base in Montana."

"That is also not good." Xavier blinked in disbelief. "This is a lot happening at once."

"Right so the simplest way to diffuse it would be to split up both teams and tackle these issues together." Hawk suggested.

"Well only the most experienced fighters can hope to take a deadite out, so we'll need a few of them in gay ole' Pariee." Ash smiled lightly.

"Yes and Legion as well as Proteus well require myself and another powerful telepath to subdue." Xavier said, "Cyclops, Jean, Wolverine, Shadowcat, Colossus, Rogue, Nightcrawler, Thunderbird and Rina we will be going to France. Storm you take the rest of the X-Men and stop Trask."

"We'll focus most of our efforts on Trask as well." Hawk growled, "We have few bones to pick with him anyways."

"All right, well it looks like it's time to move out now." Ash grinned a grin that he had lost somewhere in all the fighting with deadites.

"We'll get to France as soon as we can Xavier, but now our priority is the Sentinels." Hawk assured Xavier.

"Very well, I understand." Xavier nodded, "Good luck Hawk."

Hawk just nodded grimly in return.
