Marvel: Born in Fire!

Chapter 26: Chapter 25



Chaos, that was the best way to describe the current battlefield on the terrain that once had been the Asteroid M.

Even though the X-Men did have quantity on their side, Osborn's Avengers had quality. After all, most of the students fighting could barely slowdown whoever it was impersonating Captain Marvel and Venom, let alone Ares. At least Scott's idea to bring Namor in ended up helping them as the king of Atlantis had slammed right into the biggest and meanest enemy they had, the Sentry, and had disappeared into the far end of the Asteroid M; away from the rest of the fight but from their minds as the ground shook every five seconds or so from their battle.

Which would have distracted Scott to the point of fatality, due to a beam from Osborn's armor, if he hadn't had the ridiculous experiences he had as an X-Man.

"I have to say Summers, I'm kinda glad you decided to pull shit like this." Osborn claimed, his voice sounding mechanic due to the faceplate of his armor, as he landed on the ground and threw a punch at Scott's head. "It makes it so much more acceptable to deal with you and your pesky little team once and for all."

"You might want to take a rain check on that idea Osborn." Scott said with a smirk as the earth beneath them rose to strike Osborn right in his chin, sending the armored man back into the sky where he was then smacked back down to the ground.

"This is our first formal meeting." And the one who did that was standing above Osborn with a glare as he cracked his knuckles. "I am Hiro Kala and I believe you are the tiny little man that thought it was a bright idea to drop bombs on my brother."

"Is this all you have?!" Ares, the god of war, bellowed out as he stroke the ground and blasted those who had tried to dog pile him away with a shockwave. "You have declared war upon the Avengers, upon the god of war, and this is the best you can give me?!"

"Not at all." A voice came from behind and Ares felt an impact on his chin from below as a very familiar, and annoying, brother of his stroke him. "As according to Xenia, let me give you a proper welcome gift. The gift of battle!"

"I find your gift wanting brother." Ares said as he spit out a little bit of ichor to the ground and called his axe to his hand. "As many others before must have said to a buffoon like you!" And with a mighty bellow, he raised his weapon and brought it down where it clashed with Hercules' own Golden Mace.

It was a surprise to see his brother in this battlefield, yet Ates was glad. Now that the oaf that their father favored even after he had killed Ares' divine Stymphalian birds and his demigod son Kyknos. His son with horns may have been a buffoon comparable to Hercules and a little lacking in sanity, but he still had been his son and his murder was not something Ares would be forgiving.

No, today was a good day for death!

"Send our uncle my regards, you fool!"

"Not today dear brother of mine!" And once more the earth shook beneath the feet of the sons of Zeus as their weapons clashed.

"Really dad?" Daken, currently under the codename of Wolverine, snorted as he jumped from one branch to another in order to chase the first man to have that codename. "First you allow the Girl to try her chances against me and now you hide in the woods? I am really disappointed in you right now."

Honestly; he had accepted Norman's bullshit Avengers idea simply because he knew it would have given him a chance at his father's head, and the eye candy was not so bad either, and this was how their so called 'battle' was going? Shameful, just shameful.

"What's next? Are you going to let one of the other brats, I'm sorry, one of the esteemed future X-Men to try their chance as well?" He mocked his father as he unsheathed his claws, the metal from Muramasa blade covering them was begging to tear the regenerator mutant apart.

He was actually kind of surprised that his search was taking so long, considering the fact that he had been letting out pheromones that were basically the equivalent of telling a hundred 'yo mama' jokes in a minute since the chase began; most would have becomen creatures of pure anger and attacked him by now.

"Funny you should mention the kids." His father's voice echoed through the forest right before the ground beneath him burst out and he was attacked by a torrent of sand that became a cocoon around him, which he slashed and hacked at for no result. "Say hello to Dust!" And then the sand over his face disappeared and he saw his father's fist coming closer to his face.

"You have to be kidding me." Scott groaned as he saw the fake Hawkeye of Osborn's Avengers shoot several arrows and destroy a defense mechanism of their base with each of them, making him realize who exactly was it under the mask. "Osborn has dressed Bullseye as a hero." He had a half mind go back and shoot a particularly powerful beam at the man for that insult, but…

"You will not die well!" As he saw the armored bastard impact the ground once more while Kala followed after him with his eyes and fists glowing an eerie white with blue outline, followed by giant chunks of earths rising up and then shooting towards the bastard as Kala followed after him, he decided that he could leave that beating to the others.

Still, the things were going far better than what Scott had thought they would be like when the plan was first hatched. He even had just gotten news from Cuckoos that Emma and Kitty had saved the Professor from the hole that Osborn had put him into. At this rate they really were gonna...

*CRASH*

The thoughts of the old time X-Man was cut short as something impacted the ground near him from the sky and left a huge dust cloud over a crater that dispersed and revealed Namor's bleeding form, making Scott's stomach drop as what that meant and looked up to the sky where the biggest threat to them was hovering.

"This has gone long enough." Sentry was here.
