Here it is! Young Avengers/Runaways Crossover!
Los Angeles
Trini glanced up at The Santa Monica Farmer's Market banner and groaned. She scratched at her wig and sighed in frustration.
"You need to stop scratching." Chase ordered.
"Dude, why do I have to wear this stupid wig?" Trini glared up at him.
"Because if those guards see you," Nico pointed at the two armed guards at the entrance, "with your white hair, they're going to automatically think you're a mutant."
"I could tell them I dyed it." She mumbled.
"Yeah, like they're gonna believe that." Victor snorted.
"Thanks," Trini rolled her eyes.
Molly grabbed Chase's arm. "C'mon, Chase, this place is awesome! I hear they have lemons that are actually sweet! Can you believe it?"
Chase groaned and pulled at his arm. "That's great, Molly. Why don't you go look for them?"
"You don't wanna come with me?" Molly's voice cracked.
Chase didn't seem to notice as he pointed in the opposite direction. "We've got grownup stuff to do Molly. You're gonna have to play with yourself!"
Karolina pulled her thumb up to her lip, her face reading worry. "But seriously, what's with all the security?" She glanced around at all the guards sauntering around as if nothing.
"You know why. Which is why we gotta get our shit and get the hell out." Trini commented as she scratched at her wig again.
"She's right," Nico agreed, "You've all got your allowances and lists, so have fun but don't draw attention to yourself."
"Pfft, allowance?" Victor mumbled as he strolled over towards one of the stands.
"She can be such a mother sometimes." Trini shrugged.
He glanced down at the Tamales and sighed.
"Why the interest in food, Robot?" Xavin questioned as he leaned over with Victor. "Do you want to act like a human that bad?"
"Oh, god…" Trini rolled her eyes.
"My name's Victor, Xavin. And my mom used to make Tamales all the time. So back off." Victor growled.
"A mother! A robot can't have a mother! On my planet, you'd be dismantled for speaking such outrage!" Xavin spat.
"I'm a hybrid, alright! And my mother was a saint!" Victor pointed at him.
Suddenly, Xavin's chin began to be coated with his green native skin. Trini quickly placed her hand over it. "Hey, hey, E.T. you might wanna cover up your Skrull chin. You tend to turn Skrull-ish when you start babbling about your dream world."
"I think your mom was the best, Victor!" Molly skipped up to him. "I mean, at least your mom wasn't a Super-Villain like the rest of ours."
Trini chuckled.
"Well, having Ultron for a dad kinda makes us even, don't you think?" Victor turned to Trini.
"Nuh uh." Trini shook her finger back and forth while placing her hand on her hip. "You only got one. We got both our parents for Super-villains."
"Yeah! At least your mom wasn't trying to destroy the world!" Molly agreed; standing adjacent from Trini; mimicking her stance.
Victor rolled his eyes. "Of course not."
"Oh, come on. We're just joking." Trini patted his arm. "Besides, at least your mom…you know…was your mom." She turned around and began to search for other foods.
"Wait, what?" Victor glanced down at Molly. "What is she talking about?"
"Her parents were villains like ours. Except that her parents weren't her own." Molly began. "The Gibborim were the ones who chose her to hold their power or live force or whatever. And she was kidnapped by Demon Priests who killed her real parents and kept her to themselves. They weren't nice people, though. They hurt Trini a lot."
"I knew about her Demon Priest parents. But I didn't know they weren't her real parents…or that they…hurt her…"
"Uhm huh." Molly nodded.
"I Reject American Sovereignty!" A voice called from the entrance.
Victor and Molly turned around. Trini jogged up to the two. "Who the hell's that?"
"The hell if I know." Victor narrowed his eyes.
"I reject your nationalist cult!" The man swung his weapon around as he began to protest. "I smash your flag of oppression!"
Nico automatically turned to Chase. "Chase, go get the Leapfrog!"
"What! I can help take this guy!" Chase protested as well.
"You don't have any powers! And you're the only one the 'Frog listens to!" Nico ordered.
"Wait, is that the Flag Smasher?" Karolina squinted to try and get a better look at him. "Didn't we fight him just a couple of months ago?"
"I guess tying him to a lamppost with a note pinned to his shirt wasn't the best laid plan in the world." Nico commented.
"Ha! Chase, Gert told you it was a bad idea!" Molly laughed and pointed at him.
Chase tensed up. Trini and Victor froze.
"Oh!" Molly immediately covered her mouth. "Chase, I…"
"I'll get the 'Frog." Chase gripped the bill of his hat and stormed off.
Karolina and Xavin were the first to attack the Flag Smasher. Nico turned to Trini. "You have to cut me! I need the Staff of One!"
"Nico, I'm not gonna-."
Come on! They need me!" Nico insisted.
"Just wait," Victor intervened, "What if I can take care of it? What are this guy's powers?"
Nico turned to Trini. Trini stretched her lips out. "Uuuhhh, he's got a…I think it's a metal exoskeleton?"
"Wicked, I got this." Victor shoved his hands in his pockets and strolled up to the attacker.
"He's an idiot." Nico sighed.
"He's efficient." Trini corrected.
"Haven't you fools read Marx!" Flag Smasher exclaimed. "Haven't you-?"
"Sorry," Victor interrupted as his hand began to light up, "I haven't been to History Class in months…but I can tell you that your exoskeleton is a complex aluminum/titanium alloy…" The small bit of electricity swarmed throughout Flag Smasher's body; rendering him paralyzed.
"Molly, go at it." Trini patted her back. Molly smirked and raced towards Flag Smasher, he foot cocked back. When she released, he was shot from the ground.
"Hmph, you cheated." Xavin accused.
Trini scoffed and gripped the strap of her messenger bag. "Here we go again."
"What, because I fused his circuits with my electromagnetic control?" Victor cocked a brow.
"Don't listen to him, Victor!" Molly encouraged. "You cool, like Magneto!"
"You need to get out of here!" One of the guards ordered.
"It's okay…" Nico assured. "We're the good guys!"
"I-I know…" The guard panned up at Nico. "And I'm sorry."
"Sorry?" Nico composed a confused expression on her face. "What for?"
"I think I have an Idea." Trini pointed above them.
A helicarrier belonging to S.H.I.E.L.D appeared above the market place; continents of the market fluttered and exploded onto the ground by the powerful fan from the helicarrier.
"We've gotta get out of here." Nico announced.
"What was your first clue?" Trini cocked a brow as she turned to run with the others.
"Are we in trouble?" Molly cried.
"We're in something, Molly!" Nico raced towards the exit.
Suddenly Trini stopped as she heard something shoot off. Missiles.
Victor grabbed her arm. "Keep going! I've got this!"
Trini nodded, turned, and ran towards the Leapfrog. Chase got out as Trini yanked off her wig. "What's going on!"
"We've been caught!" Trini answered. "Come on! Get in and cloak us!"
"C'mon, Victor!" Molly ordered.
Victor magnetized his hand to the Leapfrog. "Don't worry about me! I'll keep those missiles off out tail until we get cloaked!"
Once in the air, Victor turned around to stop the other missiles.
"You think he's gonna take 'em all out?" Molly questioned.
"If They Were Actual Missiles, The yes, He Would Be Able To Take Them Out." The Leapfrog announced.
"What do you mean?" Karolina panned downwards.
"Those are Teflon Coated Missiles. They Will Do Much Damage To Mr. Mancha."
"Oh Crap-."
Tak Tak Tak!
"SQUEEEEEEEEE!"
"What was that!" Molly cried.
"Victor!" Trini quickly grabbed the latchet to the hatch.
"Trini, wait!" Chase shouted.
"No, lemme go out and get him!" Trini twisted the hatchet and opened. Victor's body was slowly moving towards the middle of the Leapfrog. Trini gripped his shirt and pulled him in; shutting the hatch afterwards.
Molly screamed at Victor's dismantled body. Karolina gasped. "Oh, god."
"Ow…" Victor whispered.
"Shh…" Trini brushed his hair out of his eyes. "You're gonna be okay."
Suddenly, Trini felt a liquid spill onto her fingers. She narrowed her eyes and pulled her hand out…Oil. Oil was leaking from his body and…the veins in her fingers, her hands, were turning black. Her body was in pain, the blackness spread throughout her veins up her arm, neck and eventually her face.
"Oh, my god…Trini…what's happening to you?" Nico asked as she stepped back.
"I-I don't know…" She passed out.
At A Bunker
Chase had Victor on an examining table; stress plastered across his face. Nico and Molly were attached to the news, Karolina was trying to stop crying, and Trini was sitting on the floor next to Chase's examining table; drinking a gallon of Holy Water.
"Karolina, what is the matter?" Xavin questioned as he reached out to his wife.
Karolina sniffed and placed her hand on her forehead. "Look what they did to Victor…why would they do that?"
"Yes, but we were lucky the robot was damaged and not a real person." Xavin attempted to comfort.
Trini snickered and took another swig; the blackness was fading away quickly, her muscles didn't hurt too much anymore. "That helps."
"Xavin, this is no time for your robotphobia Shtick, do you hear me!" Chase snapped. Old Lace growled after him.
"How could you-G-get away from me!" Karolina shoved Xavin back and stomped away from him.
"I-I simply mean to say that repair is possible!" Xavin called.
"That's right!" Molly skipped towards Chase. "I mean, you can fix him, can't you, Chase?"
"I don't know, Molly! Fuck, give me three seconds!" Chase exploded.
Tears welded up in Molly's eyes before she turned around and ran off.
"Chase…" Nico turned back to him.
"Ugh," Trini forced herself up. "I'll go after her."
Just as Trini was about to go outside, they came in, carrying Molly. Seeing them, Trini quickly turned and ran back in. "Nico, we've got company!"
"What?" Nico turned around just as they appeared behind Trini. Patriot was holding a sleeping Molly in her arms.
"We need to talk." Patriot announced.
"Molly!" Nico exclaimed.
"What the hell did you do to her!" Chase ran towards them.
Trini noticed something behind her.
"We were just trying to help, really…" Stature started.
"She attacked us, but we didn't mean to-."
"Uh, guys…Is that the Vision?" Hawkeye questioned over Patriot's explanation.
Trini turned around. "Wait-."
Suddenly, electricity rang out between the Vision and Victor.
