Neron's smile grew a little more. In a patronising tone, he said to Zira, "Oh, why are you asking him for permission? We both know that he's knocking at Death's door. Simply wait for it to happen, and destroy it before you bring him back to life." And when Deadpool reappeared down here, because he knew it was going to happen, he was going to immediately short out that belt of his. He was going nowhere until Neron had spoken to him.
(( I DO want that belt to short out long enough for Neron to speak with him. Neron can always reactivate it afterwards. Or maybe even unstick his hand from it! ))

{Enter Deadpool from Batcave}
Before Zira could answer, Deadpool popped into existence again, simultaneously wrenching his hand from the button. "Ha!" he crowed, "Take that! Super strength FTW! Who's the man? I the man." Suddenly, he seemed to notice where he was... And who all he was standing in front of. Comically, he seemed a bit more worried about X than anyone else. "Um... Okay, before you say anything, she totally came onto me. Normally when I say that, I'm lying, but this time I'm really not, and we both know it."

X looked first at Zera, then over to Neron after the comment about him being at Death's door, then finally over at Exo...who looked like he was going to attack him if X gave Zera the ok to destroy Exodus.
At about that time, Deadpool appeared. X regarded him as anyone would seeing a fly land in their drink. After a small pause, he turned his attention away from him. "I'll deal with you momentarily..."
X opened his mouth to say something to Zera, then suddenly stopped, his eyes widening very slightly. "Well," he said when he finally opened his mouth to speak again. "It seems we're a little la-" Before he could continue, Exo suddenly let out a painful grunt.
"MOTHER F*****!!" he suddenly screamed, both hands gripping his head, erm, skull as he bent over in pain. He rocked up and down a bit as he continued to spit out a chorus of ow's and obscenities. "X! I swear if I had a leg right now I'd shove it up you're ****ing ***** ***!!"
"And why are you angry at me?"
"Because this is your fault!!"
"But-"
"YOUR FAULT!!"
X let out an aggrivated sigh and pinched the bridge of his nose. "Zera, you may do whatever your heart desires. The condition of Exodus obviously isn't a priority any longer."

Zira pouted. "Well now there's no point," she muttered. "I'm going to go kick his a**." Without further ado, she vanished.
Deadpool, meanwhile, was pressing his teleportation button over and over again... to no visible effect. He wasn't panicking, exactly, but he wasn't his normal chipper self, either. "Um... Pretty lady come back? Please? ... Take me with you?" There was no response.

After another moment or two, X drew his hand back from his face and turned completely towards Deadpool, arms now crossed in front of him. Exo was still spitting out a line of curses and trying to ease the pain in his head...so he was ignored. The Demon was still here of course, but X didn't pay much mind to him either. His attention seemed to be all on Deadpool now.
Though he didn't say anything, or make a move. Just stared at him silently with his arms crossed. Contemplating something it seemed like.

Deadpool took a small, experimental step backward. "Would it help if I said 'sorry'?" he asked hopefully, "I'm not, but I could say it. I mean, I am sorry that you're mad, but she was very, very... insistent. And hot. That too. Really. I was happy with my grape juice, but she... See... Self control isn't really my strong point at the best of times, and why doesn't MY FANCY BUTTON WORK!?" He started pressing it again, rather violently.

A second later, X was directly in front of Deadpool. He still didn't say anything, or do anything, but it was clear he wasn't happy. At all. There was a tension radiating off of him like a parent standing there giving their child "the look".
"I imagine..." he finally spoke, in a low tone. "That she was rather insistent. I also imagine that someone else here would like to have a word with you. So I'll let them speak before we have a little conversation of our own."

Deadpool flinched back into a fighting stance automatically at the sudden teleportation, but managed to keep himself from hitting the guy. Then he blinked. "Um... Who?" He looked around blankly, and then finally seemed to notice Neron, who he indicated with a jerk of his thumb. "Demon guy? Oh, no. He can't possibly want a word with me, because that would imply that he thinks I'm a sucker. And, contrary to popular belief, I'm not. ... Very often. Plus, the main demonic entity for my universe will probably get mad if he starts picking off 'his' people. Mephisto hath claimed the Parker-dweeb's marriage! What horrors lieth in wait for our remaining heroes!?" Suddenly, he went very still and glared at the demon lord. "...Did you break my fancy button?" he asked in a very low, very quiet, very dangerous sort of voice.

"Only temporarily," Neron replied. "I'll restore it, just as it was when you showed up, once we're finished talking. So, Wade, you imagine you know some things about me. And you happen to be very amusing, which I must say, allows for many people to be drawn to you. At the moment, you do NOT have the scarring that has plagued you for what has seemed like a lifetime. My question to you is, in your own words, what do YOU want?"

Deadpool blinked. "Um... Money, hordes of beautiful women to lick my shoes, a new teleportation device, Norman Osborn's head on a platter, Joe Quesada's head on a platter, Yankee's season tickets, X's girlfriend, Spider-man's former wife, Black Cat, Gossamer, that hot Goddess lady who just left, one of those little air fresheners that you hang on your rear-view mirrors, a microwave, some metal forks to put in the microwave, every type of gun EVER, six tons of C-4, Cable's Mom, You Tube, the entire Hollister clothing line, a skateboard, a new television, food, and a new blind lady to cook my food. I lost my old one," he added, sounding a little sad.

Neron smiled; this reminded him somewhat of Joker's request. "All very managable things, to be sure. I believe you already know the price I'm going to request."

Deadpool nodded, beaming. "Yes! ... And no. Thanks, but no. Now... button please!"

Neron's smile didn't waver. "Well, in the event of you changing your mind, I'll leave you with this." In Wade's left hand, a green candle, a Babylon candle, appeared. "Light it, and you will be instantly brought to my presence. And now for your button..." The button worked again, and Wade's right hand was again attatched to to it with a fresh batch of webbing. "Exactly how you arrived here, as promised." The Demon Lord said with a wicked smile.

Deadpool's eyes narrowed. "Alright, just for that, if I ever DO sell my soul, it's not--"
{Exit to Metropolis}

X looked a tad annoyed that Deadpool had left without their little 'conversation', but he wasn't really angry. To be honest...there wasn't much he could have done to the man. Alcina had put one of her annoying little spells on the man, so he couldn't hurt him. And...he had no real room to be angry at him.
With a small sigh, X turned and leaned against the wall again, closing his eyes and crossing his arms in front of him. Might as well get back to the task at hand while he could. Now it was just the Demon and Exo, who was still ranting to himself.
