Neb: Professor Xavier still gone, mutants are hunted, and Mistique trapped in a millitary base. Vibrant and the X-Men are in hiding as humans turn on eachother across the world expecting a mutant threat to break out. I do not own X-Men evolution.
The X-Men and Vibrant stayed inside a cave out of sight. One much bigger than the one he and X-23 stayed in when they hid from Hydra. "Spyke is trying to get his little TV working," Jean explained to Scott.
"Does it matter," Vibrant mumbled under his breath.
"Same thing is on every channel," Scott pointed out. "Us."
"Maybe they are showing the hearings. I wanna see how Storm and Beast are doing. If they are able to-"
"I'll tell you how they're doing," Scott growled. "Terrible, I mean whose going to listen to them anyways. Everyone has already made up their minds about us."
"He's right," Vibrant chuckled. He was busy refining his wooden mask, making it look better and making it a better fit. "I feared the day all the humans learn about us, because most of the ones I've met always turn on us."
"Will you two stop already," Jean yelled at them. "We all expected this reaction, and your sulking isn't helping."
"Jean, I'm sorry," Scott spoke up. "We should be looking for the professor instead of out hiding. Why isn't he making contact using his telepathy?"
"Wherever Mystique hid him," Jean began. "I'm sure he's alright."
"Thanks Jean, I don't know how I'd get through this without you."
"Did I just become invisible," Vibrant thought as the two love birds starred into each other's eyes. Luckily Kurt appeared between them breaking their eye contact, because Vibrant felt like throwing up seeing his two former mortal enemies smile at each other like that.
"How's the reception from here," Kurt yelled.
"Pretty bad," Vibrant grinned. "Your timing was perfect though." Scott glared angrily at Vibrant who just shrugged and grinned. Nightcrawler teleported again and wound up hanging upside down hanging from a stalagmite.
"Stay right there, that's as good as it's going to get," Spyke informed. "Hey everyone the hearings are on." Vibrant and the other X Men gathered around the small screen.
"Oh man, I'm trapped here," Nightcrawler complained.
"I'll take care of it," Kitty grinned as she grabbed the device. "Bobby." Iceman froze here and then she slipped out with her powers."
"I heard you can phase through things too," Spyke mentioned to Vibrant.
"Kind of, I control the particles in my body to move through things. I can do that with other people and objects, but it takes a lot out of me."
Everyone shoved into each other as they tried to see the small screen.
"Do you mind," Vibrant growled as Kitty phased through both him and Kurt.
"Your invading my personal space," Nighcrawler yelled. She smiled at the both of them and Vibrant just sighed.
"Backup, I got it covered," Iceman explained as he created a wall of Ice in front of the screen showing a bigger view of the picture.
"How did you get it that perfect," Vibrant gawked.
"Refraction, duh," Jean explained.
"Shut up," Vibrant grunted in response to her. Storm's voice could be heard as she explained her case to the humans.
"We mutants have lived among you for years. Why do you persecute us now? We are peaceful."
"Peaceful, or just biding your time." A man skimmed through a folder of photos taken of the mansion. "From what we've seen from the Xavier institute you've been preparing for war." The man held up a picture of a metal room full of highly advanced technology.
"Oh man," Scott mumbled. "Not good."
"Why do you guys need all those defenses," Vibrant asked as he face palmed.
"That's the danger room, we use that for training," Iceman explained.
"The sentinel robot attacked us," Beast explained. "We had no choice but to defend ourselves."
"How do we know you didn't build that robot yourselves?"
"What," Storm responded in shock. "That's ridiculous!"
"You built it, but couldn't control it, endangering innocent people's lives."
The TV soon couldn't be heard as the sound of a motorcycle echoed through the cave. Wolverine fell through the Ice screen as Rogue pressed the breaks.
"I told you to hang on," she smiled.
"What happened," Jean asked.
"Millitary choppers," Logan answered.
"And it won't take long for them to find us," Rogue explained. Helicopters hovered outside the cave.
"Correction, didn't take them long," Vibrant chuckled as a fireball formed in his hand.
"Alright," Logan grinned. "We got a fight on our hands."
"No we don't," Scott responded.
"What," both Logan and Vibrant responded.
"Attention mutants, this will be your only warning. Surrender peacefully, or we will take action."
"You hear that," Logan growled. "They are getting ready to attack."
"They always do," Vibrant agreed.
"They don't know what they are getting into," Scott explained. "Iceman." Iceman created a wall of ice in front of the cave as missiles started firing."
"Listen kid," Wolverine tried to explain.
"No," Scott interrupted. "We're the X-Men Wolverine. We're not kids anymore, you trained us, and you know what, we're good." Missiles continued to fire.
"They won't see it that way, Summers," Vibrant yelled. What the hell is wrong with Cyclops, he's not understanding the us or them situation. He fired lasers at missiles blowing them away.
"We are very good," Scott continued.
"Let me get this straight," Wolverine continued to growl. "Your defying me."
"Anyone of us could smack down those choppers," Cyclops yelled back. "We're suppose to be heroes, not thugs."
"If they are after us, then they are the enemy," Wolverine yelled.
"No, but they think that we are," Scott yelled. "The last thing that we need to do right now is prove them right."
"What should we do," Vibrant yelled as he put his smiling mask on. "Run?"
"Yea," Scott decided. "If the Professor was here, that's what he'd have us do."
"You want to take charge, then your on your own," Wolverine yelled. He headed to his motorcycle and drove off on it.
"Wait," Vibrant shouted. "I don't wanna.. fine, we'll go with Summer's plan." Vibrant sighed after that.
"Your on our team now Ricky," Scott smiled.
"Like it or not," Rogue added in.
"Fine, whatever. Just go ahead and lead the charge Summers." The group charged out towards the Helicopters. The helicopters went down in a matter of minutes as the X-men used non lethal attacks to shut down their systems and land the crafts against the pilots' liking. They escaped on the X-Chopper with no casualties. Vibrant didn't like Summers, but he had to hand some respect to him.
Oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
The X Chopper had it's own television device that the X-Men watched as they kept in the air. "It's Juggernaut, he's loose," Jean yelled as the politician in the conference room used a big hulking armored up jock as his excuse for why mutants are evil. Juggernaut seemed to be climbing a dam connected to a nearby city.
"And without the professor," Kitty gasped.
"Their is no way to stop him," Kurt responded.
"It seems that the military has run up against a mutant even they can't handle," a reporter stated. The Juggernaut wrecked military helicopters like they were nothing and made a crack in the dam while doing it.
"So are we getting involved or not," Jean asked.
"It would be the sentinel disaster all over again," Scott grumbled. "Somehow they'll blame us."
"Oh now you say that," Vibrant sighed.
"Scott," Jean reasoned. "What would the professor have us do?" That seemed to do the trick, as Cyclops turned the helicopter in the direction of the mutant menace.
Ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
Kurt teleported a few Military soldiers out of their helicopters, as they fell from the sky, do to Juggernaut throwing one of the choppers at the next.
"Mutant kids now," Juggernaut laughed. "To bad you don't have papa to help you this time."
"Yea," Scott replied before they all charged at him. He tried swinging punches at Nightcrawler who just kept teleporting away. Ricky provided range support as he threw fireballs at the mutant. Jean lifted him in the air with her telepathy and Scott blasted him back with his laser vision. Iceman then created a slide for the monster man to skid across right before Juggernaut caught himself and charged again.
"Where are you," he yelled as he lost visual of his enemy. Spyke fired some spikes at him causing him to get angry and jump at Spyke. He wound up slamming into a part of the dam that exploded causing him to fall back and slide until Kitty phased him into the stone.
"Jean, Vibrant," Scott yelled. "On it," they both yelled as Vibrant began shifting the particles of the water and Jean started lifting the water in the air. They both pushed the water back into the dam and Iceman froze the crack afterwards. Kurt was removing the mutant's helmet while they tried to fix the dam, but Juggernaut grabbed him and threw him at Jean causing them both to fall back. He then freed himself and then jumped in front of Vibrant, Rogue, Iceman, and Spyke.
"What are you trying to do," he asked angrily. "Embarrass me to death." Vibrant tried using stasis on him witch immediately didn't work as Vibrant fell to his knees and Spyke grabbed him and rolled the both of them away before they almost got squashed by the super mutant.
"What the heck," Vibrant grunted. "I can't stop him?"
"Come on, give me your best shot!"
"You know," Scott responded. "That's just what I had in mind." Cyclops fired a beam knocking the mutant's helmet off and causing him to fall back. He continued to fire beams ineffectively at the man.
"You think that fancy visor can stop me? Nothing can stop me! I'm raw power!"
"Yea, you want it raw tough guy? Then take it raw!" Scott took off his visor and released all of his power at Juggernaut." Scott fell back as the mutant continued to step forward through the gigantic beams firing from Cyclops eyes. The mutant grabbed Scott by the face making him stop firing his energy beam. After that the X-Men charged once more as Spyke, Vibrant, and Iceman fired fireballs, Icicles, and spikes at him. The mutant just smacked them away and grinned as he lifted his fist to punch their leader while he was down.
"You can't stop the unstoppable!"
"Parties over," Rogue yelled as she grabbed his face, "And lights out." She began absorbing his power as Kurt brought Cyclops to safety. Vibrant tried to stand back up after being smacked hard by this monster, but couldn't find the strength. Juggernaut fell to the ground as Rogue rolled off of him and then he stood back up again growling. Rogue picked him up after he charged and then threw him off the dam as Iceman froze him.
The Military choppers hovered over the water searching for the mutant.
"They can't find him," Jean grunted.
"Should we go hunt him down," Kurt asked.
"No, my guess, he's long gone," Scott reasoned. "We're done here." Rogue collapsed after that and Scott caught her. "Hey, are you OK?"
"Yea, I got a big piece of his mind and... and I know where the professor is."
Ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
The X-Men found their Professor in the prison area where he kept his brother. "Professor," Jean yelled. "Is he alright?"
"Yes, he'll be fine," a guard explained. "We had no idea?"
"Just get him out of there," Scott ordered.
"I don't understand how anyone could get Juggernaut out, let alone get Professor Xavier in?"
"That's Mystique," Rogue interjected.
"We've learned never to underestimate her," Jean explained. Wolverine walked in, not in his usual orange suit, but one that looked more like what the students wore with his patterns on it.
"Good job," Wolverine complimented Scott. Scott went to help up Xavier.
"Easy Professor, everything is going to be OK." The mutant grunted as he came too.
After that, the President of the United States addressed all humans and mutants as fellow Americans. The X-Men were pardoned for their crimes against the military. The former shield agent who built a giant sentinel robot was caught and locked behind bars. The X-Men teachers and students all went back to the destroyed mansion where they rebuilt. Vibrant's sister didn't exactly welcome him with open arms. She told the Professor she would be staying with her parents for a while since they had been worrying. Despite all that has happened, Ricky could only smile. Simply because he believed this would be a new beginning for him, as he turns a leaf and joins the team he never thought he'd join. Vibrant is now an X-Man mutant.
