SPIDER-MAN: HYBRID Chapter 9, a Spider-Man + Marvel Crossover fanfic

CHAPTER 9

THE GODDESS VS THE PEASANT

LOCATION UNKNOWN

Rain, the skies themselves wept for them, smoke and debris decorated the landscape of a destroyed city, puddles formed snuffing out the fires everywhere, a golden sun statue laid on the ground broken in half, buildings crumbled through one another, trees and once fertile and lush for the people whom they cared for, now they laid on the ground, either turn from their roots or burnt to crisps. And then there were the bodies, people everywhere, some were blown to pieces, others were massacred and burnt to nothing more than their skeleton with bits of flesh melted to them.

The rain poured down to ease the screaming stones and trees of their pain, but also to wash away the drying blood, soaked into the very sands that these people called home.

At the center of the city, stood in ruins a giant alter, with a fallen statue of a man holding up that once great golden sun spire. Steps could be heard walking up, no running up the temple steps "Please, please" a young female voice screamed out, tears forming in her eyes as she did so, her breath was hitched, "Please be okay" sounding as if she were about to cry, the rain was all she could hear, that and her own racing heart. The sound of her steps finally came to a halt at the top of the great temple.

"By The Sun God's light" she rushes at the altar. And there was nothing there "T-the Atlas Flame" tears ran down her eyes as she dropped down to her knees, but then she turned to her to look to her right and "No…" there was a man lying flat and motionless on the ground, "No! No! NOOO!" the girl screamed as she ran towards him, holding him up, the blonde haired girl with Pigtails, Blue Silver Eyes let out a cry that the heavens themselves heard as the lightning roared and thunder struck to drown out the sound of it.

PLANET ARRAKO

NOW

Track. Sophia Markov Vulcan. The Sun Queen. Armed with the Might of the Sun itself behind her, rage personified as she spent her entire life, training, every ounce of strength in that body built through years of rigorous training and a body forcefully built pushed to great heights. Her silver blue eyes glared daggers into the adversary standing in front of her, embers of fire burning through her eyes and steam escaping her mouth.

Storm. Ororo Munroe. The Goddess of the Weather, and the Wind Rider, a woman who had never truly worked for an ounce of power in her life, power was handed to her, revered by all as a Goddess and one of the Mightiest just by default. Her pale blank eyes staring at those before her, pupils missing so that all those who look into her eyes may only see the abyss of her power, a Goddess's fury as most would say, lightning projected through her.

The two women hovered in the skies with a looming presence to both of them, power incarnate emanating from one of them. Magneto and Wolverine watched on, as did all of Arrako whom wished to witness this battle and a feeling overcame all those who witnessed this-

Concern

Everyone on Arrako knew of the power in which Storm at her fingertips, but there was something else, something to this new enemy she faced, Track, this was a battle between two Omega Levels or in Track's case, A Class SS Hybrid. A Beyond Omega Level.

A Weather Goddess Vs the Last of the Sunstone Tribe.

As the two hover in the air. Storm herself speaks to Track, not as an enemy, but calmly and as an equal "May I ask why you went through all this trouble simply to face me, what was all this for, to claim yourself as the mightiest, to stroke your own fragile ego?"

Track scoffs at this "Ego huh? This coming from the Goddess that was handed power from birth, having the power and revered by all as their god, prayed to like one, begged like one, you enjoy it when people pray and worship you, because it make you feel like your above everyone" Track's eyes burned once more "But to answer your question, No, this is not to boast my 'Ego' as you claim, and maybe if you can actually win in this duel, I'll tell you why I~ Hate you"

And thus, with a bright light of heat and energy, the battle began, as Lightning poured down from the sky and directly struck Track's body, raining down and even hitting the ground until finally, the bolt stopped, there was a massive crater formed as an after effect of the blast. Wolverine and Rasputin IV were both shocked at the massive amount of power that Storm had struck the girl with, remembering the power she witnessed from her on the Brooklyn Bridge, and then, there was a smoke and dust cloud that had formed from her attack, the smoke from the crater began to clear out until finally, it had cleared out and Track, was still there, completely unharmed and staring up at Storm like nothing had happened to her.

"That is your move Wind Rider, may I ask what that was supposed to even be"

Sophia appeared right in front of Ororo with her arms folded, electricity crackled around her body with a smile across her face and Storm was terrified at how fast she had just moved, not even able to react to her speed in that instant. Moving back, Sophia waved at her to come at her, "I didn't give you those strengths and healing pills for nothing now, show me what you can do" Storm looked at her hands, she had never had the physical strength to do something like this before, but now, looking at Track, she rushes at her, lightning crackling around her fists as she threw a right jab at Sophia, the sun queen moving away from the attack, leaping over her, she rushed back and kicked her in the face, sending her down, but that strike- it had barely even harmed her at all, rushing back in, she delivers an uppercut to her chin, her head swinging up, before delivering a gut punch, then a high lightning kick, that sacks her face around, sending her moving back a bit.

She flips over her and knocks Sophia even further into the ground, before summoning massive hailstorm to rain down on the Solar Manipulator, the shards of ice raining down on her with ever growing ferocity, after a few minutes of this, Storm finally stops the ice rains, looking down at the new crater she had just formed, as the mist in itself began to clear out, Track was standing there, water around her body steaming into a nothing. Track still with her arms folded at Storm, with a brow raised, "So, is it my turn yet?" Storm looked at her, her eyes wide as she sees that she was terrified, all that and she wasn't even hurt by it in the slightest.

A flame surrounded Track as she then suddenly appeared right at Storm's torso with her knee, her eyes widened as she had taken that hit, Track removes her knee form Storm's stomach, coughing up blood, as she was nearly fallen by just that single strike, her head nearly fell as she was hit by that one singular strike. Grabbing her by the white hair, before lifting her head up and looking at her in the eyes, and Storm's face showed the blood from that single strike

"You can do better than that" Track tells her as she lets go of her and kicks her to the curve, lifting her hand before generating a massive yellow solar energy sphere and blasting it towards the weather goddess, as the sphere collides in the sky, there was a massive explosion, one that eclipsed the very sun itself. A smile formed across Sophia's face, as Storm came falling down, and to the absolute shock of all on Arrako who were witness this, her body was missing an arm, both of her legs and her face was half burnt off, blood coming out of every pour of her, the agony of such was unimaginable and Track merely smiled at her pain

"Well maybe that was a bit too much, I meant to hold back on that one but hey, you should heal up nicely, right?" Track said with a slight chuckle to her voice

And as she said, Storm's body indeed began to reform, even creating new clothing for her, she looked down at her arms, her restored arm and her restored legs, then to her perfectly healed face, she wasn't lying about those healing pills, but that made this so much worse, meaning that this girl, knew the level of power she held in her finger tips and

"I'm sorry but are we gonna keep fighting, because I'm starting to get bored" she calmly states for all to hear

Storm was taken aback by this brazen disrespect, but then Track raised her hand, her middle finger pressed under her thumb as she flicked towards Storm, the wind force and pressure sent towards her was so quick and sharp that she only noticed it after it had passed her. The force from this attack having sliced her cheek a whole second later, Storm holds her face, her eyes widened as she looks to her cheek to see the slice, it quickly closes and her eyes dart back to the Hybrid whom had done it.

'She's faster than you Ororo, I haven't hit her with the full force of my power yet but…' she looks down at the Hybrid, whom had their hands placed on their hips and an arched smirk on her face 'By the way she doesn't seem to have taken even a hint of damage, I can say that she is quite resilient but she and the original Vulcan have the same weakness…" she raises a hand to charge up another lightning sphere, but before she could throw it down towards the Hybrid, she receives an uppercut to the jaw, followed by a spinning high kick to the neck, one that snaps her neck to the side, breaking it.

Her neck heals right up almost immediately, but it still hurt massively to regrow parts of your spine and your own jaw, and this was only the beginning of the battle,

Summoning a mist cloud to cover the two of them, as the cloud forms around them, it immediately freezes over, and completely freezes Track in place, Storm takes a moment to catch her breath from that last volley, the beating she had just received was vastly greater than any she had ever received in her entire life,

CRACK!

The sound immediately sends her into shock, spinning her head back to witness what had made that crack, and in her worst fears, Track was free from the ice simply standing there with her arms crossed, her body steamed and she glared at Storm, her blue-ish silver eyes turning orange as she stared directly at the Weather Goddess, lifting herself up to face this Monster, lightning circling around her hands and from her eyes, while for Track, her body released a fire that the heat continued to burn away the moisture of the very air, essentially removing anything such as Negative Temperature in the area, even Iceman found himself over heating and beginning to melt as a result of this immense heat.

"DO YOU KNOW WHAT YOU DO CHILD, YOU BURN THIS VARY WORLD OF LIFE, WE MUTANTS GREATEST STRUGGLE AND OUR GREATEST ACHIEVEMENT AND YOU DARE TO BURN IT!" Storm let out a scream and the very skies themselves screamed with her "AND SO I WILL NOT ALLOW FOR YOU TO CONTINUE TO HARM ALL THAT WE HAVE BUILT FOR, YOU ARE A MUTANT AND AN OMEGA AT THAT, AS AM I LITTLE SUN QUEEN"

Storm began to unleash even more power than she had before, her hair looking to be made from white lightning as the skies quaked with the weight of her power behind her, the vary planet itself felt like it was backing her up as the clouds above began to circle with a cyclone the likes of Cataclysmic levels of power being generated by her, "AND IF YOU WISH TO CONFRONT ME, THEN TAKE THE FULL FORCE OF A GODDESSES POWER!"

Track however is completely unfazed by her words and acts, her face only perked up into a smirk "Oh so mad when somebody tears down your work, is the little 'goddess' angry, Good" she casually says to her "In case that tiny mutant brain of yours hasn't noticed, but I could've simply burned Arrako into the desolate wasteland it once was" she says, her teeth then grit "But I chose to face you and you alone for you are the one who has wronged me, and so I face you and have chosen to spare your friends, because as they have not interfered, their lives are therefore off limits but that only remains as long as they abide by the rules of this duel"

Gritting her teeth even further, almost to the point of cracking them, the Goddess of the Storms rains drops her hand and rains down lighting and thunder the likes of which have never been seen before, a bolt one singular bolt rained down but it was the size of about half the entire canyon they were fighting upon and as this came down at heats 8times that of the surface of the sun, it draws nearer to the Hybrid, who simply smirks.

The lightning summoned by a goddess and held the very life force of one struck down, completely overtaking the still floating Hybrid, the power collided with the island Canyon, and exploding outward with a discharge of power so great that it was almost capable of throwing the entire planet off its axis, as Lava began to spew from the crust of Arrako.

Up above in the sky, Storm caught her breath, using the full power that is inherit to an Omega as well as her own Magic had truly taken a toll on her body, especially in having to control all that power in order to avoid causing any harm to the planet whatsoever, although she had failed in not harming Arrako, she had succeeded in destroying the greater threat of the Hybrid.

"No wait…"

The dust cloud formed from Storm's attack was truly massive, but now after a few minutes it had begun to clear, and forming in the shadow of this dirt mist, a shadow with a very sexy womanly figure, and as the dust cleared out completely, one finger pointed up was the first thing she witnessed and as the Sun Hybrid stared up at the Mutant Weather Goddess, only one feeling stared up at her through those eyes, that single finger, a nearly planet destroying attack and she stopped it with one finger and for the first time in years, Storm felt something when facing a foe that she had nearly forgotten what felt like, her breath refused to leave, sweat pouring from every pour in body, she looked at her hands, they were shaking and as she looked back to her adversary.

Track was gone, and then she felt a pain in her torso, and was sent flying off of the Hybrid's knee cap, then

WOOSH!

Track back fisted the air in front of Storm's face much to Storm and everybody else's confusion, only for

CRAK!

She was suddenly struck on her left cheek, but Track was still in that position she was in, delivering a knee to her torso once again, the Weather Goddess nearly threw up right there, before she was grabbed and lifted up by the hair, Storm looked into the eyes of the woman she was fighting and all she saw staring back at her, was fire, the fire of a goddess. This battle, this was never a battle of Equals,

This was a Deity Versus an Ant and for the first time in her life, Ororo wasn't the Goddess to be feared in this, she was nothing more than a Gnat to Sophia Markov.

But down with the X-Men watching, they all watched as one of the most powerful mutants of all time, was reduced to nothing by a 19yr old girl in a Black Sports Bra and Tights. Generating a field around himself, he flies up to Storm, summoning a massive shard of the Iron Sand from the crust of Arrako to attack her, Track looks down and with a mere breath, she blows the iron dust down, her body lit with a fire hotter than the very sun that powers her. But with the smell of Sulphur and Rotten Eggs, Nightcrawler teleports to Storm, grabbing her and teleporting her away from Track, "No!" she screams, her eyes reddening as she realizes what had been done.

Clenching her fists tight "This was a sacred duel" she grunted out her anger

AWAY FROM THEM

The X-Men and Brotherhood were all assembled together, Nightcrawler and Storm both had the same idea, that they were in serious trouble,

"Mein, her power exceeds anything I've seen before" Nightcrawler says "Just from a glance, I would say she was a match for the Phoenix in power"

"Cosmic Power or not, that fire abomination shan't endanger anymore Mutants" Magneto says. But that was easier said than done, as Track's power still equated to a Phoenix Force and the Totality of Mutants behind her and this singular Hybrid had the strength to match it, and by the casual way to which she fought, Wolverine could tell, she was still holding back. Staring and Growling at Sydney, he walks up to her and grabs her by the collar of her top, pulling her to look him right in the eyes, and an animalistic growl

"Alright Kid, you're gonna tell us everything you know about her, or else I'mma start dicing limbs"

SNIKT

Sydney looks back at him with a cold glance, her eyes dart to her claws before they begin to shake and tremble, grabbing him by the arm, she pulls him off her and stares at him

"Sophia. Coming. Can Sense. Us" was all she said, lifting her hand to point at Sunspot "Can find. Solar Energy. In all beings"

Sunspot looked at himself "Wait, what does that mean?" he asks

"All beings. Have Solar. Radiation. Since Born. Track. Can Sense it all. And find all"

Her multi-speech was confusing to any, so Rasputin IV tried to establish a psychic link between them, but that link failed immediately "Grr, stop it, let me in, tell us how to stop her, Please" The Mutant Warrior beckoned the Hybrid. She looked up to her, her eyes falling "It's no use. More Power Locked Away"

"Anything Sydney, please" Storm held her hand, blood dripping from her face and eyes, her body in the worst condition it had ever been in and yet she still beckoned her for help. Sydney looked at her "Track's wrath. Can't be quelled. And you have violated. The sacred duel. It is a tradition sacred to her people. A people. That in the future. You slay as she watched" Storm looked on in horror

"She's out for revenge" Sunspot says and ~ sensing her coming "She's coming! I'll try and slow her down, just get Storm outta here"

He lights up and flies up.

Track was flying towards them with the fury of a thousand burning stars, "There You Are, I offered you a sacred duel of my people, and I even gave you a fair chance and you spite at our traditions!" she stops, her body burning even brighter and redder than before. Sunspot flies up to meet her, in his black sun form, looking at her

"Move Decosta!" she lets out a burst of solar energy

"Can do that toots, Storm's my friend and technically, my boss, not gonna let you hurt her"

"She took everything from me" she roars out as her fire darkens for a moment, Roberto notes this and "What the…?" "She deserves everything that's coming to her, the Sunstone tribe weren't monsters, we refused her rule and she sent her sons to slaughter us"

Her eyes burn red as rage, with a fire that by looks alone appeared to be formed from her undying wrath, Sunspot stood his ground against her,

"You can't beat me Decosta, don't try, please" a level of sincerity sounded through in that moment. "Look, the X-Men have been fighting for years, we finally have peace, don't ruin this" Decosta pleaded with her

"I can't stop the 'Hate'" the whites of her eyes turned black for a moment

"Wai…ARGHHH!"

A blast of Solar Radiation came at him, to which he was able to absorb, pulling her power apart and taking it within himself, rushing at her with her own power, delivering a punch to her face, but that was a mistake

KRAK!

Breaking his arm once contact with her face was made, holding his broken arm, bleeding and his bones were completely shattered, looking back at her, she was completely unfazed before suddenly vanishing, a strike to his stomach stopping him completely before his power suddenly fading out.

His body falling out of the sky, but as his body falls and his power fading, lowering herself to catch him, letting him down softly on the ground "Sorry man" and flying away with a force that nearly pushes him away. "Where are you?" flying through the skies of this red planet, her eyes set to one thing and two people only, her wrath will be satiated or else.

ELSEWHERE

Storm's body had completely healed from her injuries in the previous battle, and knowing that girl's strength first, Roberto may already be down. With Magneto opting to simply use their Mutant Circuit, as a power great enough to affect the Multiverse itself would obviously have enough strength to take down this monstrosity before she wreaks more havoc on this great nation of Mutants,

"She wants me, and by what we've seen from her, I am doubtful anything we try will work against her, her flames burn… flames" her eyes widen, she tries to rush out from their base. But once again, Sydney stops her from leaving, creating a wall of sand to block her path

"Do not Dishonor. Her. Traditions" the vocal manipulator says

Storm looks at her, no not looks, glares, a bolt of lightning nearly hitting the girl, but she doesn't even flinch from it "What, this is not a matter of honor anymore, this is life and death, not some foolish traditions of war"

SLAP!

Everyone stopped immediately, Sobunar of the Depths, Lodus Logos and The Fisher King were all stunned by this, Storm looked back at the girl in shock, her eyes, clear as snow with bolts of lightning emanating from them, same as herself. The Class SS Hybrid grabbed the Omega Level Goddess by the collar and pulled her close

"Listen" said with a voice completely unknown to all of them, "Sophia Markov, is the Great Grand Daughter of Vulcan. Gabriel Summers"

This simple statement sent a shock through all of them

"The rivalry between both Our families has been going on for longer than we've been alive" as Sydney speaks, blood begins to drip from the sides of her mouth "But that all changed… (cough)" she coughs up blood. Storm tries to tend to her, but she slaps her hand away "W-when you, ordered the massacre of her entire people, and the destruction of their Sacred Flame" she took in a wheezed breath, dropping to one knee and continuing to cough out blood

"Do not speak of my friend as if she were a monster" her voice was shattered, dried out and blood continued to rise out from her throat "When all she is, is the last of her great line, Grandmother"

And with that, she stopped speaking, and everybody stood in shock of all of that. Storm, was Sydney's descendent, the girl wiped the blood from her mouth, as she continued to stare at her, the weather goddess was all struck, Magneto places a hand on her shoulder "We… we have not the time to dwell on this now, we will return for you in a moment" he says looking at Sydney, the girl glaring at him with murderous intent in her eye

"That future, it ain't gonna come to pace" Rogue says "The X-Men have fought against the future multiple times and each…"

She was suddenly stopped by a booming

"STORM!"

And that was the signal that Track had arrived, the once confident queen of Wakanda stared up at the sky, her eyes wide as she faced a power greater than any they had ever seen. Rogue held unto Sydney

"You're a Hybrid too ain't yah and the two of you seemed to share history, can't reason with her or something?" Rasputin IV said "Or at least tell us where the source of her strength is coming from so we can stop this madness!"

Sydney closes her eyes, before looking up at her friend causing the entire base to quake under the pressure

"GET OUT HERE MUNROE!" Track roars through all the metal she was melting through "DON'T INVOLVE YOUR FRIENDS IN THIS, THIS WAS SUPPOSED TO BE BETWEEN ME AND YOU! DON'T MAKE ME MAKE AN UNNECESSARY CORPSE! PLEASE"

That last word catches their attention, 'Please'

"Her vendetta against you, does not extend to the rest of us" Wolverine says

OUTSIDE

'Never step into your enemy's lair, bring them somewhere you can face them' Track hovered above their base, the villagers behind her were running away as most were weaponless Arraki. She reaches her hand out aiming out and readying another sun sphere 'Come on Ororo, get out here so I can paint these sands even redder with your blood' and fires it, it strikes the base and immediately burning through the Mysterium, the heat and power far too high for the miracle metal to withstand.

And before she could fire another, a fast green blur came rushing out of the base, Rogue coming with the Lightning of Storm, the Bone Claws and Healing factor of Wolverine, and the Strength of Captain Marvel, she lunges at her target with full ferocity of the three.

"Calling others to fight for her, coward"

Rogue lunges the claws at Track, only for Track to completely move out of the way with the simplest of ease, a simply move to the left with her arms folded, she looks at her with an arched brow, before swinging her foot back and then forward, and that singular strike…

CRUK

…Rising kicks Rogue's torso in half, splitting her upper and lower body, blood and organs spread everywhere as she stared at her "Sorry about that, but you aren't my demon to conquer" as Rogue's upper body stared at her, she then suddenly smiled before opening her mouth and saying "SLASH" and large scraps of Mysterium and Adamantium, the two pieces of metal then dash and slice at her neck,

SLIT

A Large drew of blood flies out of her slashed neck, holding her opened wound as she tries to stop the blood from gushing out, Rogue smiles at her as the lower parts of her body begins falling, dropping to the ground as she was bleeding profusely, with Rogue's two halves falling down to the ground, but thanks to Wolverine's healing factor, she was able to stay alive. While Sophia was bleeding out, she gets up to her hand and knees, blood dripping out of them, her breathing was weighted, but then, she gets up, her neck still hemorrhaging, until, it begins to heal up, the wound closing as Rogue's eyes widen

"Come on, didn't think I had a healing factor too, every Hybrid Have Enhanced Healing" as she says this, her flames lite up once more, levitating off the ground, but before she could do anything,

CRACK!

A Massive Rain pours on her head, she falls from the air as her fire is extinguished, dropping down as the water takes out her flames completely, "M-my flames?! What happened?!" Track looked up to see "Of course!" looking up to see the white haired dark skinned woman looking down on her, but it wasn't just her

"Eight versus One, of course you need multiple people"

Standing up as the rain pour on her, Storm, Sobunar of the Depths, and Lodus Logos, the two water manipulators continue to pour down an endless rain on her body, making sure that the fire will not lite, no matter how much she tries to set her flames once more, sparks of yellow form, but the rain was putting them out.

"That is enough Summers" Storm says to her

And it was as if a switch went off in her head, looking up at Ororo and growling what she says next "What. Did you. call me?"

"Summers? You descend directly from Gabriel Summers do you not, then you are of the Summers House"

"Do not call me by that insipid name!" Sophia yelled at her. But the Omega Level Mutant doesn't budge at this "House Summers disowned my progenitor and so never call me by that name, I am Sophia Markov of House Vulcan" she lowered her head "I was, now I am the last of dead dynasty, The Last of the Sunstone Tribe, The Atlas Flame is gone, and so is my people, my…" she stops speaking

Standing up from the massive rain pour, looking up at the three Omega Level Mutants, using a Mutant Circuit to cut her off from her power… but not her TRUE POWER.

"This battle is over and you have lost, and thus by agreement…" she stops, steam emits from the waters and from her body "What? Your flames, they should not be able to lite"

Raising her hand, a fire began to lite up but something was wrong with it.

"You dare to claim victory over me, you didn't beat me, I have abided by the rules this entire time" her voice exclaims loudly "I told you the rules, I told you want would happen if you broke them, yet you still claim to hold Victory!"

Her fire first reddens, becoming as red the rage she embodies, but then, the flames become much darker and they continue to darken, the wrathful red glow of her once orange solar energy now developed a black glow, with dark purple hues to them, her eyes shut from the sudden switch, as she opened her eyes, her once silver blue pearls had reverted to a blackened red with an iris in the middle, as well as her blonde hair turning pure black, her skin paled out more than before, and a black Crown of Horns made from Black Fire, her cold red eyes staring piercingly towards the group of Mutants.

The red sands beneath her feet didn't turn to glass at the heat, no, they were completely eviscerated by the power. Taking a step forward, her footsteps leaving behind steps of black fire, destroying the sands as she steps forward, then another step, then another. Each step putting in a feel of fear into each of them, looking up into the eyes of those whom would dare desecrate her people's traditions. Lodus Logos speaks, sending massive amounts of both Mysterium, Adamantium and Vibranium all at the woman whom had not moved from her, lowering her head and then a smile forms on her face as the metal reaches her body, they are completely incinerated.

Magneto and Lodus Logos look on in terror at what had just happened, their miracle metal was completely reduced to nothing, not even dust or ashes remained from that Black Flame, staring at the Mutants, her red eyes set with pure malice and concentration, then, Track turns her eyes to their base and at the one person she wanted dead more than anything else.

THAK

Magneto, Sobunar and Lodus Logos all turned around and there, standing behind with her back turned to them was Track, her black flames, it emitted no light and no heat, they couldn't even feel the warmth or anything coming from it, in fact, the fire felt… cold? But before the master of magnetism could even comprehend what was happening, Track spoke to them

"I bare you no ill will Mutants, for now, my only target, is Storm"

Her fire begins to spread out and Sobunar can no longer summon any waters to his side, they all reduced to nothing before they were even summoned. Looking down at Storm, Track descends down to her, the black fire spreading around the entire base as Wolverine, Rasputin IV, Nightcrawler and Storm all stood together, looking down at her hands, the Onyx Flame spreads and hatred incarnates, standing before Storm, she was wrong before.

She said that Track's power equaled the Totality of all Mutants

But her thoughts betray her, as the power of this Single Hybrid, is far greater than even Eternity itself.

Looking at her friends, people all willing to give their lives for her, and then at herself, she was their leader, she was supposed to protect them, not the other way around and staring at the opposition, everything she had survived for this long, everything she had learned about herself, all the power she had acclimated, a Goddess, a Sorceress by blood, all of it, with the strength of even her people beside her and all of it is for not.

And then she understands, one can only survive everything in their life, until finally, they don't, and so using her winds to push back her friends and freezing them to the walls

"Ororo, what're you doing?" Kurt questions

Ororo walks to her executioner, her head lowered and her eyes closed, she stood in front of Track, what can she do now, this girl has shown the power far greater than herself. So she stands before the Burning Hybrid, the Onyx Flame burning with a presence so cold, that the fire may have well been icy, but even with a fire than ran colder than the cold depths of space, Iceman, The Omega Level Cryomancer, was unable to manipulate it, but he could feel it, he could feel…

'SCREECH!'

And the flame roared back, sending the Cryomancer away from him, staring down at Storm, as for the first time in her entire life, the Wind Rider stood before the Sun Queen

"You surrender yourself?" Track questions this

"I admit defeat, I have no way to match your power, everything in our arsenal only to be swatted away like mere child's play, and I know when I am defeated, so do as you wish, but just know that Sydney, my… granddaughter, told me what became of me and what I had done to your family, but I want you to know that I am not the woman who did so" bowing her head to Storm, completely humbling herself

"I know you aren't" she said, making Storm raise her head "I've spent 14yrs of my entire life fighting, training to face you, to make sure that I would be able to crush your bones to dust and paint the battlefield with your blood" all of them looked at her "Years of my life, ever since I watched you and your sons leave the dead body of my older brother to your rain"

She said as she uppercuts Storm in the face and her body being sent right through the ceiling, her body flew out of the base, before crashing down on the ground, parts of her face were destroyed from that singular attack blood gushing out of her head, she rose up to her hands and knees, pouring out of her as she struggled back up to her feet. Track's foot stepped right in front of her face "I walked through the ruins of my home where bodies were struck and burnt by lightning, frozen to dead, drowned and torn to pieces" her voice, grit with blood and rage, delivering a Front Rising Kick to her head, lifting her entire body off the ground as she delivered punch after vicious punch to the Dark Skinned Woman, delivering a final strike across her face, and sending her flying into a mountain

A somber tone in her voice "His body laid faced down, water drowning out his already deceased eyes, and greying skin, left there to rot because we refused your rule and your way of life" she continued as each step forward, her fires eradicated the sands of Mars, they weren't even turned to glass, just… gone.

Ororo pushed the mountain rocks off her body, her strength still active for the next 23hrs, but it might not even matter, the strength she had been given, and the strength that was Sophia had trained for, there was a massive difference between the two and now she could see it. As she admits, The Hybrid is simply too powerful for her to face, even when pulling every last drop of power, she can, none of it has so much as put a dent on her, thinking smart has done nothing as Track has proven the superior warrior all around.

Hovering and looking down at the Weather Goddess, "You've been in as many fights, if not more so than I have" what looked like teleporting, she grabbed her by the collar of her top and lifting her up "You don't get to feel weak or sorry for yourself after all the things you've done to me" delivering a heavy slap to her face and sending her flying into another mountain, crashing into it head first.

Pushing the rubble off of her, her neck was reversed to her body, she grabs it and sets it right back where it belongs, coughing up blood as her adversary lands near her, black flames releasing from her hands and feet, as well as her eyes, but as she lands there, Ororo, barely able to open her eyes and stay in any form of consciousness as she witnessed Sophia Markov, the granddaughter of one of the strongest mutants of all time, Vulcan. And she remembered their fight, when she was simply able to brush him aside, a Goddess vs a King.

Before her thoughts could continue further, she was lifted up by the collar, staring at Sophia's burning eyes, and seeing the same from Gabriel Summers, except this was eons of power rolled into one singular being and whatever this Onyx Flame was, it made her almost invincible by comparison. Holding her up with one arm as the weather goddess throws an ice spike at her face, one that simply shatters on contact with her face, doing no damage to her even without the flame acting like a sheet, but then, throwing her into the air, she suddenly appears right in front of her delivering a spin kick to the ribs, followed by a Solar Blast, blowing up the lower half of her body, to which when she faced up once more, she was struck to the face with a double axe hand and finally, caught and held up by her arm by Track.

Storm was barely conscious, her body basically destroyed by the Hybrid, her pure white eyes were dimmed as her half frame dangled from her arm, her grasp on her pale cracked skin with blackened finger nails, and her red eyes staring disappointedly at the Mutant Goddess

"All that unearned power, and this is what you were capable of. No wonder you and your 3 Sons took us on the one day we would be vulnerable, the Passing of the Atlas Flame, you were never strong enough to harm us"

And with those words of dismay, she lights her index and middle fingers ablaze in black fire, before placing those two fingers on her arm, branding Storm on her wrist until the skin was completely simply opens her hand and lets the Weather Goddess fall, a Fallen Deity…

Staring up as everything began to darken, staring up to the Darkness and Hatred within those eyes, those red eyes, staring down at her and for the first time in her life, she understood something, for all her power, for all her Mutant and Godly Might, she wasn't always going to be the most powerful being in the room and this proved it and then Darkness.

THE SPIDER AND THE LOVER

Hey Everybody, sorry if this chapter comes out a bit rushed or bad, I just wanted to reveal somethings about some of the characters I've introduced and what Track seemed to have against Storm specifically, also, that thing she said about 'Unearned Power' note that also, how does Track's Black Fire Form come off?

Good? Bad? I can do better in it but it still has potential, especially when the next chapter shows you the truth about what it can truly do. Also if you have any theories as to what is happening with that whole Hybrid Power Scaling thing of Track being a Class S.S.S, that will be revealed in the next chapter as well.

Also, what did you think of

Sydney being Storm's Granddaughter, but think about it 'I AM STORM, MISTRISS OF THE ELEMENTS!' and Sydney having ELEMENTAL MANIPULATION?" Makes sense doesn't it. With all the different elemental based golems she was making

The Onyx Flame, is it a pretty cool name? Because of the sheer dark and cooling presence the fire leaves behind, with the ability to casually burn away an Infinite Ocean from Two Omega Level Mutants

Peter and Zoe reuniting in the next 2nd Half of this Chapter and should I bring back that Kid who showed up at the Scarlet Witch's Shop? He has potential and he could be a Hybrid on the heroes' side?

Also, what do you think an Omega Level Hybrid would be? How powerful would one be?
