Chereads / The Adventures Of Maverick / Chapter 31 - Control

Chapter 31 - Control

"Big boy Maverick is really tearing it up" Blazer said with multi coloured lights flashing and loud music being played.

The team was in a club, Blazer was the DJ, Wave was a Waiter, Frosty and Slade were security while Maverick, Gears and Nova posed as guests. Maverick hit the dance floor and there was a lot of chemistry between the two and Blazer didn't help matters by playing EDM love songs.

"Don't forget our main objective team" Gears said over their ear buds.

Max had his eyes fixed on the beautiful girl in front of him as the two were grinding slowly then he twirled her around and their eyes locked.

"Don't tell me" Gears said in anticipation.

"What are my eyes about to witness?" Frosty said holding his breath.

"Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes" Blazer said jumping in the air to the beat of the music.

Max put his head forward and so did she and then-

**************************************************

Three Days Ago|

It had just been a week after the battle in South Dakota and Legion had scheduled for it's first meeting today with the new person going to be in attendance. Max sat down in his living room with Ramon and present as they had breakfast, slices of bread with eggs bacon and a hot cup of tea.

"Still shocked that this whole battle was just a week ago" Ramon said before downing a slice.

"Yep"

"But better still, the greatest hero team is about to be officially formed" Ramon said full of excitement.

"I know" Max said taking a sip out of his cup.

"But the teaser you guys posted online was crazy, it has everyone hyped up for today" Ramon said.

"I know, it was all Blazer's idea to get the public involved by posting the teaser"

"So who is the last member of the team, I already know eveyone else" Ramon said.

"Even I don't know, John said he wanted it to be 'a surprise'" Max said.

"Oh well, guess the public is goin gto be stoked when they see the line up, it's going to be cool as hell" Ramon added tryin git hard to control his joy.

"Well, you know with me being part of this team, you guys would have to start pullin gsome more weight around here" Max said.

"Don't worry, we can handle things without you for a couple of days, don't sweat it" Ramon said.

"If you say so" Max said.

The two finished their food and walked out of the house with Max lockin gthe door and carrying a small suitcase.

"What's that for?" Ramon asked.

"Oh, Dave said we should pack a bit of clothes, we might go on a team bonding trip or something like that" Max said.

"Alright, want me to give you a ride to the restauran so you could give last minute instructions?" Ramon suggested.

"Sure thing"

The two made a quick stop at the restaurant before they parted ways with Max flying to D.C, he walked out of the lift to already find the whole team there waiting for him apart from the new person. Everyoe was dressed in their hero outfit.

"You guys sure arrived on time" Max said.

"Don't sweat it Maverick, besides you're still twenty minutes early" Gears said.

"I don't get why we had to come in our hero outfits" Blazer said.

"We have to keep our identities safe because we're meeting with John today and he might invite a couple of guests" Wave explained.

"Yes they have to see how the most dangerous group of people in the world are holding up. I bet they'll still try to convince us to join H.A just so they could have us on a leash" Frosty spited angrily.

"Humans always want to have control over everything but they would have to accept sooner or later that they can't control everything" Slade said.

Dave's watch began to beep alerting him on something.

"Great, the newbie is here" Gears said.

"How did she find this place?" Maverick asked.

"Easy. I just sent a driver to pick her from the airport" Gears answered.

The lift came down and they all anticipated who it would be, Slade and Frosty relaxed on the sofa, Wave tinkered in the workshop trying to fix some bugs on his suit while the other three stood ready to receive the person.

"Welcome to Legion" Gears said as she walked out holding a little suitcase as well.

Maverick's eyes widened at who he saw, it was a girl with ginger hair and red eyes just like his. She wore a black T-shirt with a golden star in the middle alongside dark grey sweatpants with red lines on the side with white and sky-blue sneakers. She was beautiful and was shapy with bountiful assets, Max was swept head over heels already.

"Hi guys, nice to meet you all" she said with a cheerful energetic tone.

"I can tell we're goin gto get along fine" Blazer said. "I'm Blazer" he introduced.

"I'm Nova" she said.

"And this is Slade" he pointed.

He lifted his soda can to her.

"This is Frosty" he said.

"Yo" he said.

"The guy tinkering over there is Wave"

"Nice to meet you" he said.

"The guy that spoke first is Gears and the guy with the cape is Maverick" he introduced them all.

"Nice to meet you all, especially you Maverick" she said zooming to his front spooking him a bit as he took two steps backward then he began to fly.

"She's fast" Blazer remarked.

"Sorry if I spooked you a bit, just excited to stand in front of the strongest hero alive" she said looking at his stature.

"Don't worry Nova, you'll have ample time to see the power house in action out in the field" Gears said.

"Do you guys have a place to change?" she asked.

"Sure, let me show you around" Gears said.

Maverick sat on the couch and let out a deep breath, for some reason he felt as if someone was staring at him and turned to see Blazer staring at him and lifted his eyebrows twice.

"Nope" Maverick said.

"Sooner or later it's going to come out" Blazer said.

Minutes later Gears came out then Nova five minutes after and then she sat next to Max as they awaited a broadcast from John. She wore a dark blue onsie lined with black with a golden five pointed star on her chest, the suit made her curves come out even more.

"Incoming broadcast from H.A" his assistant said as the monitor was filled with the live video of John from H.A headquarters.

"Legion, I see you've met the newest addition to the group" John said. "Well, I have news for you guys, You're goin gto be seeing a bit more of Violet every now and then as I have appointed her to supervise you all and check up on you. Kind of like a babysitter"

"We all know you want us on your leash John, it's not just going to happen" Gears said.

"Hold on, I never said anything like that"

"But your intention sspeak clearly" Slade said. "The world is afraid of us and what we can already do individually and now that we're a team I'm sure you're all drunk with fear"

"Yes, we all are. You literally has someone whose strength is unbound, a speedster that could run God knows how fast. A demon slayer who we don't know anything about, two kids in suits capable of crazy stuff and a person whose imagination is his limit, why wouldn't we be afraid" John said a bit pissed.

"I know you guys want your privacy but I can't handle all the pressure coming from every world power right now so do us a favour and don't do anything stupid"

"We can't make any promises" Blazer said which really got on his last nerve.

John was about to lose his cool but calmed down after taking deep breaths.

"The main ajenda behind this meeting is that Violet dug up something that we think you guys can handle. Mafias exchanging weapons at a club tonight in Florida, need you and your team to infiltrate the deal and stop it from happening, please be as discrete as possible"

"We will try our best" Wave answered.

"Alright, Walter out" he said ending the broadcast.

"Is it just me or does that guy remind anyone of Amanda Wallar, complete control freak" Blazer said.

"At least Fury gave the Avengers some breathing space and Natasha and Hawkeye kept the big boys in check to the best of their abilities" Frosty said.

"Ah well, we all have a cross to carry now" Maverick said.

"What do we do now?" Nova asked.

"You heard the man; we're going to Florida" Gears said.
