Chapter 8: Tailing a Wolverine
Six Hours Later
Nevada
Radio Host 1: Hello Everyone and thank you for tuning into the local station but we have some breaking news. The Teen Titans engaged an assailant known as Adam Kassidy, this confrontation took place at the abandoned church in Jump City. Police are saying that there were bodies found nailed to crosses inside while investigators were searching.
Radio Host 2: That's right, when investigators took blood samples of the bodies, they found out that they belonged to a gang that was known for raping and killing 15 women in the city. The Police Chief commented on the horrifying discovery.
Police Chief: These monsters brought havoc to the unfortunate victims and what's worse was that they killed them. Those victims had families and children that they will never come home to so if Adam Kassidy is listening now, you've brought closure to those families and we thank you for that.
Radio Host 1: The Teen Titans engaged Adam Kassidy in combat but were found brutally beaten as the church crumbled from the confrontation. Jump City residents are questioning if their local heroes are capable of doing their jobs due to their recent clashes with other local villains.
Citizen 1: I mean the Teen Titans are good and all but now when we see them in combat with a criminal, they don't take the job seriously.
Citizen 2: Yeah, they just knock the criminal out and put him in a weak jail guarding system, I'm not saying that's a bad thing but they're just not putting their foot down when they have to.
Radio Host 2: Everyone is now turning to the Justice League for answers as the damage the Teen Titans have caused to the area around the church was catastrophic. Locals reported seeing missiles explode near their homes and giant boulders wrecking their cars.
Radio Host 1: But the big one here was when some citizens were trapped in the wreckage as the battle ensued in the church. They cried for help but they were saved, not by the police or the Titans, but by a red creature who goes by the name Carnage.
Radio Host 2: A strange name for a new assailant as we await answers from the Justice League but we can't help but wonder... Is Carnage another killer or a true hero?
A red car is speeding down this lonely road in Nevada, the driver listening to the radio with a crazed smile on his face as he enjoyed the breeze and the feeling of no barriers or obstacles.
Adam: What a report, indeed.
In his head, Carnage cackled darkly as he too enjoyed the ride, going at over 70mph.
Carnage: The better thing is this fucking car, good thing that wasn't loaded onto that ship.
Last night, Carnage/Adam infiltrated an illegal shipment of women and exotic cars, they slaughtered every living gang member on that ship. After that, they removed all the cars and the women before blowing the ship to smithereens but not before tossing all the dead gang members bodies onto the ship. Not to mention they got first pick of the many cars that were there to keep and drive out of town with.
Adam: Oh yes, 1967 Ford Mustang Convertible... I always had a taste for classic cars.
Carnage: I'm surprised they haven't reported the smuggle ship shit, yet.
Adam: The average mind of a person can't understand what we have done... they're all slow.
Carnage: So... we're on our way to Egypt so we can increase the body count?
Adam: Yup, its no wonder the stupid Justice League couldn't bust them yet... the smugglers picked a country no one pays any mind too.
Carnage: I can't wait to murder more people... feels like home to me.... CHANGE THIS FUCKING RADIO ALREADY!!!
Adam turned the knob and changed it to another station which was thankfully playing songs and the one that was playing currently was Industry Baby by Lil Nas X ft Jack Harlow.
Carnage: Why this of all songs?
Adam: He is probably the only rapper that has the balls to make a music video like that, naked men and all.
Carnage: Isn't this nigga gay?
Adam: Are focusing on gay naked black men or are you just listening and enjoying the song?
Carnage: I'm just gonna ignore this song.
Adam: You got no fucking taste whatsoever.
Carnage: And you do?
Adam: Yes, I practically added 20 to the 100 ways to die.
Carnage: All shit jokes aside, you remember that woman from yesterday?
Adam: You mean Mera, yeah she got a kink for wanting a long tongue up in her pussy.
Carnage: Tempting but not that one, the one from the ship.
Adam: Oh, her.
When they evacuated the enslaved women off the ship, one of them was a woman but she was wearing a silver outfit almost like a huntresses's outfit and she was unusually attractive. The moon reflected her beauty as she had silver eyes to go along with her smooth black hair, unfortunately Carnage and Adam were to busy being trigger happy with murdering the smugglers to even analyse her properly.
Carnage: Must of snatched her out of a hunting party or something.
Adam: Nah, she smells different from the rest of them... like-
Carnage: An Immortal.
Adam: Why would an immortal let herself be smuggled and kidnapped?
Carnage: No fucking clue.
They kept on driving on the road listening to a variety of songs as they enjoyed the peace and quiet that they finally got until Carnage broke the silence.
Carnage: Guess what?
Adam: What?
Carnage: I took some of the Titans codex when we fought them.
Adam: The fuck is that?
Carnage: It will allow us to use their powers and enhance our current strengths while dampening our weaknesses.
Adam: If it wasn't for my power, your ass would've been smoked.
Carnage: You're power deprives from your blood, the death serum must've activated it, it allows you to feel no pain nor take damage from basically any sort of substance.
Adam: Sometimes you creep the shit out of me.
Carnage: I am inside your head so I know every little fucking thing that goes on in here and I can see all of it.
Adam: So you saw the music video for Industry Baby?
Carnage: DRIVE THE FUCKING CAR!!!
They kept on driving for about two more hours until an explosion sound echoed in the distance as they drove towards it.
Adam: Mmm, government testing perhaps?
Carnage: They wouldn't conduct test on a public road.
Adam: Perhaps more blood to spill... hehehe.
He pressed the gas pedal hard as his mustang zoomed towards the sound as they dorve over multiple hill until they saw what was the commotion.
An army like helicopter was flying around as it fired missiles at something but the dust was so thick that a normal human couldn't see through it but Adam could.
The helicopter was firing its missiles at a man on a motorcycle who was riding and dodging it until another helicopter appeared infront of him which forced him to turn around but he popped three claws out of his knuckles, stabbed it into the ground and used that momentum to turn around.
Adam brought the car to a stop as he watched with interest as he relaxed and enjoyed the show.
Adam: You don't see this in Nevada everyday.
Carnage: Sadly some fuckers want to ruin the fun.
Adam: I fucking hoped they would.
An army helicopter appeared behind Adam and his car as he calmly turned around in his seat as the helicopter turned to the side.
Pilot: KILL THE MUTANT!!!
His friend manned the minigun that was at the side and aimed at them but Adam gunned the engine and took off as the minigun fired it's rounds.
Adam went fast as the bullets smashed the ground behind him as he closed in on the motorcycle guy who had two helicopters on his ass as he looked ahead and saw Adam driving towards him.
Man: HEY KID, GET OUT OF HERE!!!
Adam: Carnage, you already know what time it is.
Carnage: Let's fucking go!!!
Adam transformed into Carnage and stood up in his seat as he used his tendrils to steer and keep on the gas pedal. Turning around, Carnage summoned more tendrils along with bladed hands as he roared at the helicopter behind them.
Pilot: What kind of mutant is that?!
Minigun Man: I don't know, but he's getting lit up!!!
He opened fire which proved to be a fatal mistake as Carnage shot out his tendrils to grab the helicopter. The first tendril smashed the Pilot into a pancake as the second one grabbed the tail and together, they pulled the helicopter down which caused an explosion as Carnage went back into Adam who took the wheel.
Adam: OH YEAH!!!
Popping a wheelie, Adam revved the car ahead as the motorcycle man kept on dodging his set of bullets and missiles. Adam drove closer until he drifted so that he ended up right next to the motorcycle man.
Adam: A BEAUTIFUL DAY, EH?!
Motorcycle Man: Bub, you fucking out of your mind?!
Adam: Like a fucking mad man!!!
Driving ahead, Adam grinned as he saw the two helicopters in his rearview mirror.
Adam: Let's obliterate these fuckers, what do you say?!
Carnage: I say we use the whole fucking arsenal!!!
Carnage made some tendrils out of Adam's back and shot spikes at the helicopters as they made impact. The first helicopter took damage as it began to lower itself to avoid getting shot but the bike man took the opportunity and jumped onto the helicopter before slicing everyone up with his claws which made the helicopter spiral out of control as it crashed into the ground but not before the guy jumped off of it and landed back on his motorcycle.
Adam: Trying to get respect, I see.
The second helicopter was holding up until one of Carnage's spikes hit the propeller which knocked it down but it didn't explode.
Adam pulled up to the scene along with the motorcycle man who got off his bike and glared at the pilots before asking a question.
Motorcycle Man: Where is the facility?
Pilot: Like hell I would talk.
Motorcycle Man: That's where you're going pal.
He walked away but not before summoning his claws and scraping it against a trail of fuel.
It ignited on fire and raced towards the helicopter as it exploded with the man walking like a badass.
Adam leaned against the hood of his car as he rolled his eyes at the dramatic move made by the guy.
Adam: Trying to recreate what the hell I just did or what?
Motorcycle Man: So you're the mutant?
Adam: A what?
Motorcycle Man: I was sent to get but it seems you got no problem using your powers, bub.
Adam: If they fuck up, I kill him... who the hell are you?
Motorcycle Man: Name's Logan, bub.
Adam: Adam Kassidy.
Logan: You're the one who fucked up the Teen Titans?
Adam: They practically asked for it, now what's up with those shiny claws?
Logan popped out his claws as he gained a grim look on his face.
Logan: Adamantium Claws, how I got it... don't ask.
Adam: Bad memories huh, I've had worst... don't ask.
Logan: What was that red thing that came out of ya?
Adam:
Logan popped out both of his claws and jumped back in surprise as Carnage roared before he laughed darkly.
Carnage: I guess it works on big teens and small men.
Logan: Careful what ya say next, bub.
Carnage: Luckily, Adam doesn't want to kill you.. Just to show you what can happen.
Carnage went back in Adam as the son of Kassidy grinned at the shocked mutant.
Adam: So... I'm a mutant or what?
Logan: I'll let Charles handle the explanation.
Adam: Who the fuck is Charles?
Over the hill behind them, a jet appeared and flew towards them as Logan reassured Adam it wasn't a threat.
It landed infront of them as the hatch door opened to reveal a man on a wheelchair and four women in uniform behind him as they came down the ramp.
???: Hello, I am Charles Xavier, I am the head of the X-Men.
Adam: Never heard of it.
Charles: No one has... I keep it a secret since people don't like our kind, Jean could you elaborate on that?
Jean: We are mutants and they are afraid of what we are capable of.
Adam: Damn, you put a whole new meaning in smoking hot.
Jean blushed at that as he turned his attention to the woman next to her as she gave off the same vibe as Logan.
Adam turned to Logan who walked up to them and stood by them.
Adam: She your daughter or something?
Logan: How do you know?
Adam: Gives off the same predatory vibe and smells very similar to you.
Logan: Her name is Laura Kinney and she is my biological daughter.
Laura remained silent as she gave Adam a cold look who wasn't bothered by it until he gave her a face that sent chills down her spine.
Adam: Trust me lady, I've encountered more scarier things than you.
Ororo: Sorry about that, she doesn't talk very much to people.
Adam: I can see that.
He looked at the last woman and she was just dropdead sexy in her red outfit.
Adam: And who are you?
Wanda: Wanda Maximoff.
Adam: Now that introductions are aside, what do you want?
Charles: Adam, I have the power to sense mutants anywhere on the planet and your X-Gene activated a couple of days ago. We decided to come and get you before Magneto and his team does.
Adam: Who the hell is Magneto?
Logan: You see kid, Magneto is a mutant like us but he believes that mutants would be respected if we showed the humans who's the top dog which we don't stand for.
Charles: We were hoping you could join us.
Adam: Heard that bullshit before.
Jean: What?
Adam: Union Academy said the same exact bullshit to me which I stupidly accepted which led to me being beaten for two years because I had no potential whatsoever... ask the redhead who's in my head right now.
The mutants looked at Jean who had tears in her eyes as she nodded in confirmation that everything Adam said was true.
Logan: Jesus bub, I'm sorry.
Adam: No need for apologies.
Ororo: We are not like that, all mutants stick together no matter what.
Wanda: We are all family... you look like you can use one.
Laura: We will not hurt you.
The mutants looked at Laura in surprise that she spoke as she and Adam looked at each other as he tried to sense any deceit from her but she passed like she was hard as stone.
Adam chuckled as the mutants turned their attention back to him as he grinned.
Adam: Your story checks out so I'll check out your little gang but then after that I gotta get to Egypt.
Logan: Why?
Adam: Smuggling Business to bust and let me drive my car in there.
They all boarded the jet as Adam loaded his car in there and Ororo used her powers and gave the jet extra speed as they flew for about a minute before they landed.
Adam: The fuck...
Logan chuckled as Charles smiled at Adam.
Charles: Welcome to Xavier's School for Gifted Youngsters.
Adam: Where the hell are we?
Jean: New York.
Adam was shocked that they were there already as Wanda laughed at his priceless reaction. They got off as Adam backed his car out and he looked at the place and whistled.
Adam: Now this feels homey.
Logan got on his motorcycle and showed Adam where to park his vehicle as they met up with the others and entered the building.
Charles sent out a mental message to the rest of the mutants in the building.
Charles: Everyone please come to the lobby, thank you.
Adam: Now what?
Logan: Meet the rest of the team, kid.
They waited a little before a girl appeared and greeted Adam.
???: Hey there, ah am Anna Marie.
Adam: Country girl, nice.
Three more girls showed up and introduced themselves to Adam.
Lady Deadpool: HI THERE, IM WANDA WILSON!!!
Adam: Fucking christ woman.
Domino: Name's Neena Thurman.
Adam: Wow you look gorgeous.
Emma: I am Emma Frost.
Adam turned to Charles with his eyebrow raised.
Adam: Why is your team called X-Men when its full of girls?
Logan: The guys are on a... what do ya call it again?
Jean: Boy's day out.
Lady Deadpool: They left us girls all alone... but now we have a sexy stud here joining us!!!
She grabbed Adam's face and looked at him in all angles as the rest of the girls got jealous.
Domino: I hate to break this up but Professor, while you all were gone, a threat emerged in downtown New York.
Charles: Who is it?
Emma: Its the Juggernaut.
