Chereads / Marvel: Born in Fire! / Chapter 12 - Chapter 11

Chapter 12 - Chapter 11

Noriko Ashida, codename Surge, normally would have made sure to get away from Illyana Rasputin whenever the russian mutant came anywhere near her. It was like that with most of the school, Colossus' sister was kinda creepy; even without knowing that she had spent most of her childhood in hell, literally.

Unfortunately, that wasn't exactly an option at the moment. Cause the Russian mutant had just dragged off the newest student, who was somehow both a mutant and the son of Hulk, and Noriko was technically an X-Man. So she was supposed to protect the students if any danger was near them and to be perfectly honest, Illyana was likely the most dangerous being in the school.

Which was how she ended up finding herself in the backyard with a small gathering of students trying to be sneaky as they watched Illyana drag off Kala, as sneakily as a bull in a china shop.

"So, any chances of you telling us why you dragged me here?" Kala asked with a smile as he crossed his arms over his chest.

"I could do that… or I could do this!" Illyana yelled out as she whipped out her sword and swung it towards Kala's head.

Seeing the maniac Russian about to commit murder on the school ground;, Noriko activated her powers at one, not willing to let another tragedy occur on their school, but she already knew that she wasn't fast enough.

*CLANG*

Which was why she was so relieved when, instead of taking Kala's head clean off, Illyana's sword clashed with another sword; literally growing out of the ground.

"I am guessing this is your hazing?" For some reason Kala did not look bothered about his near death at all, instead he looked rather amused with a wicked smirk on his face as he grabbed the hilt of the sword growing from the ground and pulled it out, much like a certain king from legend.

"This planet tends to have problems with aliens. Thinking they get to invade whenever they want. Those of your planet made an especially big impact. So gotta make sure you know…" Illyana said as she spun her sword in her hand before going for attack once more and clashed with Kala.

"…this isn't your world." She said with a smile which was answered with Kala's own smile that showed his teeth.

"Not yet."

Her words should have been hurtful, but they didn't really register. Instead, call me crazy, I was having fun. Almost as much as the days I used to hunt for Mazoruses with Skaar. The sound of our swords clashing was like music to my ears.

Before I realized, I had already tuned out all the other students gathered around us. At that moment all that mattered was myself, Illyana and battle.

It was glorious.

At our next clash of blades, one of my hands let go of the sword I had created and instead went towards Illyana's head, intending to knock her down flat, but was avoided with a simple tilt of the head by the Russian beauty as she sent a kick towards my stomach that I avoided by jumping back. From where I once stood, several spikes of earth rose and went towards Illyana who simply opened a small portal and allowed the earth spikes to simply enter the limbo.

Seeing that my attack hadn't worked I did as would be expected from a child of Hulk, which was to do it again with more power! This time the spikes weren't simply coming from the front but from all of her sides, which she expertly avoided by jumping over them right before the impact.

So the next move would be…

"Enough!" Interrupted by Scott Summers, the joy killer of the X-Men.

"What is this supposed to be?" He asked with a glare from behind his glass and Illyana answered with an angelic smile.

"Hazing." I think I could see the veins bulge on Summers' head as he kept glaring at us as we simply smiled like we had no shame in our actions. Mostly because we didn't. I could see that Skaar had fun watching our little battle and Illyana, from my limited interactions with her, was a pure chaos gremlin. One could even say she was like a goddess, caring only for her own pleasure and displeasure.

I didn't dislike it.

"Yeah, no. You know what, I'm not going to deal with this shit, if you two wanna throw hands; at least do it in the Danger Room." Scott said with a sigh as he punched the bridge of his nose before pointing at me.

"But before that, Kala, you come with me." He said before turning around, so I did the same as well and called out to Noriko.

"Hey, you mind staying with Skaar for a while?" I asked and she nodded, though there was a little hesitation in her eyes; guess she had been somewhat intimidated by my little fun with Illyana. I would make it up to her later.

"Skaar, listen to Noriko and don't start fights." I said sternly and was awarded by my brother nod at me while rolling his eyes, little brat.

"We will continue after the visor is done with you." Illyana said with a sly smirk on her face before turning around and leaving. I know what they say about crazies but I swear that I will do my father proud with this girl. In other words, Kala smash.

It took a moment before I managed to catch up to Scott, the leader of the X-Men looking rather tired as he looked up at the sky while standing in front of the gate.

"So, any hints on why you wanted me to come?" I asked as I put my hands behind my head.

"I just got a call." Scott said as a rather loud noise started to come from above us and I saw a small space ship in the sky. A Sakaaran model of personal shuttle.

"There are some people who want to meet you." He said as the shuttle landed and it's passengers came out.

The first one to come out was a rather large humanoid made out of rocks wearing armor follows closely by a far smaller humanoid female with red skin and short hair wearing a tank top. Right after them was another woman with stone gray skin and behind her a rather enormous insectoid. Then the rock man raised his hand.

"I am Korg the Kronan, the Warbound of the Green King of Sakaar, and I salute you; the son of Holku."
