Its not called the "Astral" Plane for nothing.
Charles Xavier was taking a small break from the largely stressful week he was having. Unfortunately he was taking his vacation in the Astral Plane where he happened upon a new and unfamiliar face. He was a tall muscular man with a bright and cheerful smile; the only odd thing about him was his green hair.
"Hello." Xavier said as he "walked" up to the newcomer.
"Hi." The man smiled. "You must be Charles Xavier."
"Yes, I am." Xavier said in surprise, "And you might be?"
"Well right now I'm called Captain Planet, but the name changes with the times." Captain Planet smiled.
"Ah, yes the entity that the Planeteers can summon in emergencies." Xavier nodded with a smile. "It is a pleasure to finally meet you."
"The same goes for me. I've actually wanted to talk to you for a while." Captain Planet's smile faded. "I've been watching the Earth from this place; say what do you call his place anyway?"
"It's the Astral Plane, a metaphysical world where telepaths and other enlightened people can wander and congregate." Xavier explained. "Although I admit I am a bit curious as to why you're here?"
"I've been here since the whole Chaos Spark thing." Planet smiled. "Truthfully, it's a lot more interesting than where I used to stay while I was dormant."
"Which was?" Xavier asked.
"A crystalline dimension that let me see all the happenings in the world." Planet said. "Really, very boring there."
"I'd expect so." Xavier nodded. "But what was it you wanted to talk about?"
"The teams." Planet's face went serious once more. "I get the whole playful rivalry that you and the Misfits have going on, and I marvel at how well the others have melded so well into this universe, but I'm afraid some of the members of my team are getting a bit presumptuous of their own power."
"Yes, I have noticed such instances." Xavier nodded, "Especially with Linka and Wheeler, they seem quite convinced that you can solve any problem, and that both teams are unnecessary."
"Well, not to toot my own horn, but I'm pretty good at getting the job done." Planet cracked a smile ad then went serious again. "But you are right, Linka and Wheeler need to realize that I cannot take on every villain and rogue scientist in this world." Planet winced in remembrance of his battle with the Hulk.
"Don't feel to bad, the Hulk has beaten adversaries that would kill even Wolverine. In his own way he has become a small force of nature." Xavier said.
"Well, I wouldn't go that far, but he is still on my holiday card list." Planet smiled. "So how do we ground the two love birds back into reality?"
"My first thought would be to invite them along on a few missions with the X-Men or Misfits. Let them see how dangerous our world is. Something young Kwame has only recently come to terms with." Xavier mused over the thought. "What about Gi, how is she getting along with our groups?"
"Well, she seems to get along with Althea just fine, but she is definitely wary of Xi and Stanley of the Misfits." Planet sighed. "As for your team, I don't think she's really had a chance to talk to anyone, the same goes for the turtles."
"And of course Ma-ti is the most open minded and accepting individual." Xavier smiled.
"He was chosen to be the bearer of Heart." Planet pointed out. "Still, this event has made some waves in the futures of all the Planeteers."
"How so?" Xavier asked.
"Ma-ti used the power of Heart to its fullest to try and help one of your enemies from having a complete mental breakdown." Planet said.
"Which one?" Xavier asked in concern.
"St. John Alderdyce." Planet said. "I think he's called 'Pyro'."
"Yes, that young man is a living history of pain and abuse, even more so than some of the Misfits." Xavier said.
"Then there's Wheeler's father." Planet said with a hint of exasperation. "Before, he just wanted his son to have a 'future'." Planet opened up a small viewing globe in front of Xavier and played a small scene from Wheeler's past.
"And now?" Xavier asked.
"Now I fear that father and son maybe locked in a war." Planet said as the image shifted to Wheeler's father attending a meeting of the FOH.
"He supports anti-mutant movements." Xavier frowned.
"Don't worry, I know Wheeler, he's hot-headed, but he has a good heart." Planet said with a weak smile. "Still if his father doesn't change…"
"Don't worry." A form lifted from the ground and revealed itself to be Astral, the Scion of Order. "Perfection's got a little something planned for both father and son."
"Astral?" Xavier was slightly shocked, but a smile quickly spread over his face.
"Don't even think it Xavier." Astral warned the telepath. "I hate that joke more than Wraith hates cold coffee."
"What's he got planned now?" Planet rubbed his forehead.
"A little something." Astral said sternly. "We all have a little something planned for them."
"Oh boy…" Planet groaned.
"Relax, you're evil, acne laced twin won't make an appearance in the real world any time during that." Astral said as another form dropped into the Astral Plane and landed with a thud. "Here, however is another story. Say hello to your new roommate Pollution." Astral grinned.
"Ooowwww." Captain Pollution whined as he got up. "What hit me?"
"You conception of gravity." Xavier smiled. "Hello there."
"Bite me old man." Pollution noticed he looked entirely human. "AH!"
"You've got to be kidding me." Planet's face fell.
"Sorry, but Wraith kicked him out of Hell for hitting on all the Succubi." Astral shrugged. "Dumbass idea if you ask me, but then again Captain Pollution was not made with intelligence in mind."
"I'll agree with one." Planet nodded.
"Don't worry though; he's stripped of all his powers while here." Astral reassured Captain Planet.
"What; why?" Pollution shrieked.
Astral gave the anit-Captain a hard look. "E-VIL."
"Right." Pollution shrunk back. "He's the one I pissed off last time, right?"
"Yup." Planet smiled.
"Mommy." Pollution whimpered as he nervously slunk away from the group.
"Are you sure you aren't an interLOAFER?" Xavier asked as he watched the tense interaction.
"More like their clean up crew." Astral grumbled. "Anyway I'll be making sure Linka gets the message and so will Wraith."
"Uh, I know this is a stupid question but who's going to be with Gi?" Planet asked.
"You don't want to know." Astral sighed.
"I pray it is not DM." Xavier said. "He is a tad bit unstable."
"I'm more worried about Karma being the one that 'helps'." Planet groaned.
"Really, she seems quite calm to me." Xavier replied.
"Xavier, Karma has about a 2 understanding of human culture." Astral said, "And that comes from watching MadTV."
"Oh dear." Xavier paled once more.
"Yeah, now I gotta flash. Later." Astral said.
"Wait." Xavier grabbed Astral by the shoulder. "Do you think you could take a few of the Misfits and X-Men with you?"
"And Perhaps my sons as well." Splinter said as he came into view.
"What am I doing here?" Hawk shrieked as he floated by with no control.
"I figured I might as well make it a full party." Astral shrugged. "I got no problem with it, how about you guys?"
"Well…" Perfection appeared floating upside down next to Hawk. "I would say it'd be ok, but they'll need a babysitter when I get all 'Sufferance' on Wheeler and his pops."
"I can help!" Clotho appeared next to the cowering Pollution who immediately perked up. "Down boy or you get a lightning bolt up the ass." Clotho growled.
"Yay!" Perfection cheered, "Clotho is helping!"
"Yes, I am!" Clotho cheered as the two Scions gave each other a big hug.
"I swear those two could be related." Astral groaned. "Any other objections?"
"I do, please don't let Karma take Gi Shopping." Planet pleaded.
"Don't worry, she won't." Astral assured Captain Planet.
"Hey, you know who else needs to be here?" Perfection asked.
"Don't do it." Astral warned as Captain America and Bruce Banner appeared. "Too late."
"I was having soup…" Bruce said blankly. "I'm going to wake up in 32XXL pants again aren't I?
"Probably." Perfection smiled.
"Where am I?" Captain America blinked as he started to float away.
"Hi, Captain America!" Clotho smiled.
"Good lord is nothing sacred to you, you maniac?" Xavier shrieked.
"One thing." Perfection said as he chained Captain America to the ground.
"I shudder at the thought." Xavier groaned.
"Trust me; it's a lot saner than you think." DM said as he too appeared with Wraith not far behind.
"You mean he's not worshipping cheese anymore?" Astral asked in confusion.
"Think about it Astral." Wraith said. "What could possibly mean more than cheese does to him?"
"Ah…" Astral nodded. "Good point."
"Could you tell me where I am?" Captain America asked Captain Planet.
"Astral Plane." Captain Planet extended his hand for a shake. "I'm Captain Planet, nice to meet you, Captain."
Captain America gave a light hearted smile. "Same here Captain."
"Bruce Banner." Bruce walked up to the two Captains. "Do I know you?" He asked Captain Planet.
"Well your big green alter ego used me as an all purpose sports tool." Captain Planet said.
"Oh…" Bruce winced. "Sorry about that."
"Oh, don't worry I can take it, besides I kind of asked for it in the end." Planet nodded as he looked over to Xavier who was busy chasing Perfection around like Elmer Fudd chasing Daffy Duck. "You guys might want to get comfortable…"
"Uh… someone help…" Hawk groaned as he floated by. "Please!"
"You know one day, you're going to look back on this and laugh." DM said politely as he pulled Hawk to the surface.
"Yeah, of course I will, I'll be laughing at everything when I'm in the Looney bin!" Hawk yelled.
