Team Obliteration : The Destruction Cube

Chapter 17

Cassandra's P.O.V.

"We seriously need to do something," said Cassie.

The team was discussing over breakfast. They had no idea what they were going to do to take down Magneto, but they knew that they had to do something.

Deadpool had arrived home early in the morning, so he was included in the discussion too.

"We need to get permission from Fury first, right?" asked Jayla. "I mean, isn't he, like, in charge of all the superheroes out there?"

"I guess so," replied Logan. "But he already gave us permission. We need to figure out something, and fast too."

"I don't mind if Magneto destroys the world," said Deadpool suddenly. Everyone turned to look at him in surprise. "I mean, no one truly appreciates our help, right? Just let those pesky money-chasing humans die."

"But you chase money too," Alex pointed out.

"Yeah, but I do it so I can get money to buy more weapons to defend them," protested Deadpool.

"We still need to protect them, it's our duty." Alex leaned back in her chair and hugged herself.

"I don't get it," said Cassie after a while. "Why does Magneto hate humans so much?"

"Because they hate mutants, duh," Deadpool said while he stretched in his chair. "This is getting boring. Can we get to the part where we blow up stuff and kill people?"

"Okay, fine." Alexandra took out a small tracking device. "I managed to scan Magneto on the 4th of July attack, and I think that I could use this to track him. It might take a while, though."

"So... What do we do when we find him?" asked Slenderman. "He's definitely going to be expecting us, considering he hasn't made a move to blow up our house yet."

Cassie shuddered. "We better be quick, before he does blow up our house."

"Give me the bomb," said Alex suddenly, interrupting Cassie. "I can try to track its energy source."

"What bomb?" said Jayla suddenly, panicked. "I didn't know there was a bomb. When is it gonna blow up?"

"The diffused bomb from before, silly," said Deadpool as Jayla flushed. Cassie's eyes widened for some reason, and Deadpool and her seemed to have a silent conversation before she went back to normal.

"I got it," said Logan as he came back from the lab. "Here." He passed the metal cube to Alex.

"Thanks." She took it from him, and set to work.

"Let's devise the plan now," said Deadpool, straightening up. "Option one : We sneak in, grab the Cube, then go. Option two – which I prefer more – Blow up the shit out of his place, then take the Cube, then go."

"I like option two more as well, Deadpool," Cassie said with a hint of sarcasm in her tone, "but he could be expecting us, like Slenderman said."

"So?" argued Deadpool. "Even if he knows we're coming, and we blow his place up, he can't do anything."

"Obviously he'll send the Brotherhood to guard the perimeters. Use some of that brain of yours." Logan had an exasperated look on his face.

Deadpool was silent for a while. "Yeah, yeah. Whatever," he huffed.

"So... I think that we'll send Slenderman over there to go and get the Cube, then we head back," said Cassie as she looked at Slenderman. "Is that alright?"
