Welcome to Gaia! ::

The X-Men Evolution Guild! Version 2.0

New look, same great taste!

Welcome to the world of X-Men Evolution! In a world on the brink of unprecedented evolutionary advancement, the lives of a population of young mutants living in the town of Bayville, New York find themselves split into two different, sometimes opposing groups.

The Xavier School for Gifted Youngsters acts as a haven for many of these young mutants. The wealthy educator, philanthropist, and not to mention world-class telepath Charles Xavier has taken many mutant children under his wing, teaching them the proper, as well as ethical, applications of their varied abilities. He strives for a world that will one day accept mutants as equals among society, and avoid genetic war at all cost.

However, Xavier's dream is not for everyone. There exists another group, whose intentions are far more ambiguous. Formerly under the care of Magneto, the young Brotherhood of Mutants has suddenly found themselves on their own, left to decide for themselves exactly what they want to do in life, and with their abilities. They are far more worried about their own survival and enrichment, and many mistrust a supposed "savior" who has the ability to forcibly change one's mind. However... when you're forced to live on your own, survival itself can be enough of a challenge. And yet, assistance comes from the most unlikely of sources...

Last time, on X-Men: Evolution...

(UPDATED: 8/7/04)

Its a wearily simple time for both teams, on the surface. While the X-Men welcome new members, the Brotherhood is out on the town lounging in a hotel as they prepare to move back into the newly refinished house

But of course, drama abounds. Regina tackles with the decision to join either the Brotherhood, or the X-Men, with Reese of the Brotherhood and TNL of the X-Men both taking interest in her at the same time. Meanwhile, a plethora of new mutants have appeared in Bayville, their loyalties questionable at best.

John and Noko, however, have happily become engaged, but not all is well there either. Pyro's recent spree of destruction cost Warren Worthington, the Archangel, his mansion, and he is angry to say the least. And he already knows who Pyro hired... its only a matter of time before he knows for sure that Pyro was behind it all. If that wasn't bad enough, Wanda wants Pyro's head as well... his fire may have destroyed her book of magic.

Pietro, for once, is staying out of trouble with Koko.

Obsidian was silent, but inside of her head, she was screaming.

Oh my GOD! Why can't I talk?... Um... What the hell is going on?... I'm hoping someone understands soon... She thought, her hands fumbling for something grab onto. Finding Pietro's hands, she clutched to him tightly, as if trying to tell something was wrong. But no, no one would understand. Couldn't anybody hear her??

Well, hell. This was great.

I need to speak, except my vocal chords won't listen! Damn you, you damnable american stereotypical speeches! If I could have talked I would have SHUT HIM UP... For God's sake, that was a long speech about that power of his. I mean, COME ON, who frickin' cares?! It's just RUNNING...

Of course, Obsidian loved her boyfriend to death, but beign Japanese, she hated the speeches more than most other peopel did.

Glaring at Warren, she opened her mouth to speak, but agian, no sound. Nothing. A soft iss escaped, but that was all...

OH CRAP! No! ******** that! I am not mute, I can't be mute!! This sucks... How will I communicate with anybody now? Sign language?

" No i cant be hearing obsidian in my head...can i? Obsidian????"

"Noko?" Obsidian asked in her mind, blinking in shock. "You can hear me?!"

She turned to look and Noko, eyes wide in confusion. "I thought no one could hear me... What's up?... Er... Wait a... how did this happen?" She let go of Pietro's ar mand walked over to Noko, looking quite the bewildered one.

"Why is this happening to us only?... Uh oh.. John looks angry.. Think we should run for it, Noko?" She asked in her mind, looking over nervously at John.

"Hi there Gang," he said with a degree of mis-placed candidness to his voice. "Your friend John was initiating me on his own brand of contract negotiations, and my aren't they swell..."

"Well of course they are. They let you live, don't they?" John looked at Pietro. "Oh and I love the laughing gas you put in my tanks, but you see there was one small problem with your plan. You didn't act like yourself. I wasn't too surprised when Noko and Obsidian didn't say anything to me, but to see you quiet without any remark or prank, got me curious... but nice try though. Alright, so here's the deal Pietro. Your boss here is to take all of the stuff out of the game room, and throw it out. Then he is to put all my stuff back in my room. And when I say him, I mean him. No one else. Oh and just in case he doesn't do so I've decided to blow up his house and the tv station. Speaking of which, why don't you turn on the TV Peitro? You can see how crazy I use to be before I met Noko. Actually part of me is still that dangerous right now. You see, I've soaked most of the house with some lighter fluid and plan on burning the house down to ashes if my demands aren't met, or if you try something tricky. I mea if the head of the house can't have a room than no one can. It's as simple as that. So it's your move Pietro. You can either let him do his work, and then keep you show, and help keep the house up, or you can help him, and then the seconed I get a chance your show, the house, and Warren go up in flames.'

John stared at Noko. Her questions had caught him off gaurd and the sarcasm in her voice told him that something was up. He looked at Pietro, Warren and then back at Pietro. "I'll leave you two to decide how you're gonna take my demands, although I'm pretty sure that I know the answer" He walked up to Noko "Of course you can have my time. You always come first....what's the problem?"

"Ah! No! They are not pokemon! They are huma nbeings! Not pokemon! Sure, En is vicious, but hey... Plus, they don't have element types, Noko." Obsidian snapped back. She then laughed silently, even though it was clear she was laughing.

"Well, come on, Noko! Let's go shopping.. We just need our wallets first..." Moving out of John's way, she disappeared into the brothrhood mansion and came back with her own wallet and purse, which had bee stuffed with many, many wads of bills... She then handed Noko her a purse, filled with alot of money. "I've saved up yoru money from the show funding and bought you a purse, along with several thousands of dollars. Perhaps millions! Let's go clubbin' or shopping, Noko!"

She then looked around, smiling waveringly at Pietro...

"Oh, yes, by the way... Can you tell Pietro I love him before we leave, Noko?... Just say I said it."

"Okay, there will be no more kidnappings, super evil villains, bodies being taken over by villainry, threats of having to jump into a timestream, or anything else of that matter," Phenix reclined in a chair seated near Elisabeth, Jacen, and Kim. She was just another teammate waiting in line to get their boo-boos taped up. Her injuries were less severe that others so she gladly waited.

"Don't jynx us," Elisabeth winced as McCoy put some disinfectant on her wounds.

Phenix nodded, "I do think we need a vacation, my friends. We've just about missed our summer. I don't know about you guys, but I'd like to enjoy some part of it before college starts."

Piotr sat down beside her showing little sign of injury. Some days she wished she wore steel plating around her skin. It would make those nasty landings she took hurt less. She glanced at Kim wondering what was going to happen after their little cat fight. They hadn't had a chance to talk before hell broke loose.

"We should go to the beach, go camping, go somewhere that isn't the Danger Room. Any takers?"

OOC: I'm assuming that any of the characters who were around 17 or 18 graduated this spring from Bayville... I know mine did at least wink
