Load Full Story

a flamming skeleton got off its flaming Harley Davidson breakout. It slowly transformed as it walked, until eventually a seventeen year old boy was revealed. He took a deep breath of air, and attempted to blow the hair out of his face. He lets out a sigh, and presses a button on his key. The now normal bike beeps twice, and the unusual boy starts walking towards the entrance of a large skyscraper in Canterlot.

The seventeen year old boy walked into the building. he had brown hair, peach skin, red eyes, and he was dressed from head to toe in black leather. There were spikes that protruded from the shoulder of his outfit, as well as the back sides of the gloves, around the belt, and around the tops of the boots. He had two chains wrapped around his torso, and they had sharpened hooks on the ends of them. The boys face was covered in dirt, and his hair was a mess. He let out an exhausted breath.

"Jeez Alex, the hell happened to you?" Someone asked. It was a boy with white hair, blue eyes, and peachy white skin. He was wearing a skin tight red and blue suit, with a spider printed on the front. His hero name was Spiderman.

"Terrorist with heavy explosives, that's what happened." Alex said. "Speaking of which, where were you all day soul?"

"Stopping robberies, freeing hostages, relaxing, the usual." Soul said. A girl with yellowish orange skin, red and yellow hair, and blue eyes, was walking by and caught a portion of the conversation.

"There was a bit more relaxing then anything else." She said.

"Thank you sunset." Alex said.

"Hey, at least he doesn't turn the bad guys into neat little piles of ash." Night said. He was carrying a red, white and blue shield with a star in the middle of it. He liked to be called captain America though.

"Sorry, but I don't take chances like our fellow batman does. What's the use in locking them up, if they just get out and cause chaos again anyway?" Alex said, taking a bite out of an apple. A girl with a very similar look to Alex's walks in. She had brown eyes instead of Alex's red ones.

"Don't mind him, he just doesn't understand our logic." Alejandra said. She was wearing a blue shirt with a red cape, boots and skirt. The shirt had a red S on the chest. Her hero name was superwoman.

"Alejandra sweetie. Please tell me your wearing shorts under that skirt." Alex said, still shewing his Apple.

"Why does it matter?" She asked. She put her hands on her hips

"Because no one is supposed to see your underwear except you and me, and if your not wearing shorts then your kinda giving everyone a nice view when your flying." Alex said, taking yet another bit of his Apple.

"Yes, I'm wearing shorts under this. I'm not dumb." Alejandra said, crossing her arms.

"Yeah, she's not stupid Alex." Zero said. He was wearing a yellow and blue suit with a black face mask near the eyes. He preffered to be called wolverine.

"Oh but out. I don't get into your relationship affairs." Alex said. Zero shot claws out of his knuckles.

"Why don't you make me, bub?" Zero said.

"Zero, I'm going to tell you this once. Your threatening a guy who can eat your soul and destroy your body. Your also threatening a guy who once took on satan himself and won. So put your claws away before you end up like the terrorist I just stopped." Alex said. Zero retracted his claws and crossed his arms.

"Your no fun." Zero said.

"Well what do you expect from a guy who has a literal curse? Oh DAYUM, where are my manners! Introductions! I'm Treble Mix! But you can call me Deadpool!" Treble said, staring off into what seemed like no where. He was wearing cargo pants and combat boots, a sleeveless black vest and white undershirt, and white wrist tapes on his arm and sunglasses.

"Ok? Who are you talking too, and are you still sane Treble?" Alex asked nicely.

"Define, SANE." Treble said. Alex sighed. A man dressed in a black hooded cloak walked into the room and looked around. He was carrying a large curved blade. He's also know as death, but you can call him Umbra.

"He's never been sane Alex. Why bother asking?" Umbra said.

"Well, if it isn't MR death himself. And you guys say I kill a lot of people." Alex remarked.

"There's a difference. He has to do this otherwise people can't die. You are just the cause of those deaths." Sunset said, eating a bowl of cereal.

"Why do you even live here? You don't exactly have any powers or anything." Alex said.

"Yeah, but soul here let me stay with him." Sunset said. The two hugged, well, more like Sunset hugged him with one arm because she was holding a bowl of cereal. Alex shrugged and went to take another bite of his Apple. It was shot out of his hand by an arrow before he could bite down.

"Not cool quill!" Alex said. Arrow (formally known as Heavenly Quill) walked into the room, he was laughing.

"Yup, the green arrow has still got it." Arrow said.

"Yeah, you only practice like, all the time. Next time, don't wasted your arrows on my apple." Alex said. The others laughed at Alex's expense.
