My Misfit Mentor
Disclaimer: I thought this up awhile ago but never got around to doing anything with it until now. This is a crossover with Red Witch's Misfits 'Verse (A combination of X-Men Evolution/Other Marvel Elements/GI JOE) and the Arrowverse. Though the events of RW's Misfits happens in the late 70's to 80's in this take on things.
Summary: Barry Allen gains a mentor in the form of the Mutant Speedster known as Quicksilver after publically taking down Leonard Snart and Mick Rory during the events of season 1's 'Revenge Of The Rogues'.
As Barry was about to speed away and let Central's finest take care of Cold and Heatwave, an unfamiliar voice stopped him. "Not bad for a newbie to the hero life."
He quickly turned to the source and his jaw dropped at the sight of the Mutant Speedster known as Pietro 'Quicksilver' Maximoff of the Misfits and dressed in a dark grey outfit. The Misfits being a team of Mutants taken in by the anti-terrorist unit known as GI JOE back in the late 70's. Pietro smirked at the shocked look from his fellow Speedster. "Think you got enough left in the tank to run with me, kid?" He asked as he came up to Barry as the Police all around them dealt with Snart and Rory.
Time had matured Pietro but he still had his moments that reminded those who knew him all too well of his teenage years. Thankfully, Luna, his daughter with the Inhuman known as Crystal, was a lot more calmer much to the relief of a number of folks. "After what I just went through? I don't think I do right now, sorry." Barry told him while disguising his voice so no one would recognize him.
"Pity, oh well, let's go somewhere more private we can talk."
The tired Speedster watched as Quicksilver went up a building and with a sigh, followed him up it with curiousity welling up in him. "So, what's this about?" He asked once on top of the roof.
Not even bothering to disguise his voice at that point thanks to how tired he is and the fact they were alone on the roof. "I want to mentor you, kid."
Barry blinked, not expecting that at all. "Uhh, I already have a mentor." He blurted out.
"But can he or she run fast like us?"
"Umm… No. Only things he got from the Particle Accelerator explosion was the loss of his legs and Pariah status."
"And that explosion gave you your Speed?" Asked Quicksilver to be clear.
As Cerebro hadn't detected the kid or any of the other powered individuals who'd been cropping up in the last 9 months here in Central. "Pretty much."
"I see. Well, despite all that, I think my being a Speedster like you makes me better qualified to be a mentor to you since there's a lot for you to learn."
"This, this isn't some recruitment pitch is it? 'Cause I'm not looking to join any teams right now." Barry told him bluntly.
That, and he doubted Joe or Dr. Wells would be all that for it due to how high profile the X-Men and the Misfits are to this day in society. Pietro just chuckled at the kid. "Nah, nothing like that, I promise. Just me wanting to teach you so you can be a better Speedster and Hero. But if you need time to think about it, that's totally cool." Replied the Misfit Speedster and then sped off.
But not before leaving his contact information in Barry's left hand much to his surprise. "Wow, I didn't even see or feel that."
He would definitely think about the offer though and maybe see what Joe and Dr. Wells had to say at some point.
Author's Notes: Glad I got that outta my head!
