Chapter 10

Needless to say, the three didn't go to school or work that day, as they were busy handling their affairs. First, they decided to live in one of the properties that Jax owned, which so happened to be on the nicer end of Midtown, so they wouldn't have to change schools. It was a beautiful 5 bedroom, 3 story house where each floor was like its own suite.

Jada naturally got the top floor, while Jax and MJ stayed on the second, but I separate rooms. It was like them having their own apartment, as each floor could come and leave without disturbing the other floors.

After paying a movers to bring them all new furniture, they were officially moved. It was crazy how fast things can move when you have enough money.

Next, they moved to officially press charges against MJ's father, Patrick Watson, and given the bruises, her story painting a history of abuse, and his violent rap sheet, it was practically an open and shut case, and he was soundly arrested. As they brought him in, the Irish bastard was screaming up a storm and throwing threats and them, vowing revenge.

Jax was livid, as he made MJ cry again, but Jax knew there was no way for him to kill him now that he was locked up, and had to be satisfied that he was away in prison and hoped that he got raped every night.

Child Protective Services arrived a while after, but Jada moved to adopt MJ instead of letting her go through the system. After hours of CPS's incompetence and checking on their new home, MJ was officially adopted into the Wolfe family. And by her request, had her legal name changed to Mary Jane Wolfe.

"I say we go out for dinner to celebrate, what do you say? My stomach is trying to eat my back right now." Jax joked, doing his best to lighten the mood.

"I-I wouldn't mind grabbing a bite to eat." MJ said shyly.

"That did take forever, and I know I'm not the only one starving. Damn CPS, making us wait forever. Where did you have in mind?" asked Jada as she looked back scornfully at the CPS building.

"I was thinking we get some new clothes and eat somewhere fancy on Times Square. I already called a company car to come pick us up. He should be here some- ah, there he goes." Jax said, waving over the company car down the street.

Pulling up to them was a sleek, bulletproof, black sedan. Hoping out of the driver's seat was the quirk-user! Jax realized earlier that day that he didn't have a job for the quirk-user, who's name is, Giles, so he decided to have Giles become his butler. It was definitely not just because he was British and Jax liked his accent, definitely not.

Giles looked to be in his early 20s and had fair skin, athletic build, and nice facial features. He had spiky blonde hair, a well trimmed beard, and thanks to Jax's orders, he wore black slacks, black leather dress shoes, a dark purple velvet vest, white dress shirt, black tie, and black tailcoat.

Not only was Giles loyal, but he was powerful with a quirk that allowed him to spawn an energy cloak that was highly versatile, as he could use it for defending himself and others, or he can use it to attack and send mid range energy bolts.

It was Jax imagining Giles becoming his own personal Alfred Pennyworth that made Jax very excited and throw out the idea of making him a breeder.

As he opened the door for them, Giles bowed in a courteous manner. "I am here to drive you wherever you wish, My Lord and Ladies Wolfe." Giles said, as the three entered the back of the car, Jada and MJ natural cautious of the new face.

"Uh, Jax, who is this, and why is he calling us lords and ladies?" Jada eyed Jax suspiciously while he looked away with a bead of sweat trailing down his face, making MJ laugh.

"He was kind of a floater with the company, so I decided to make him our Butler! Don't worry, I have divine level assurances that he's a good guy, plus, have you heard the man speaking? It's like he talks in cursive!" Jax said, defending his decision to make Giles their butler.

With no reason to refute it, Jada relented and decided to enjoy the idea of having a Butler to help her around the house.

"Giles, can you take us to the shopping district so we can buy some new clothes for dinner?" asked Jax.

Sure, Jax could just order the guy around, but Jax genuinely wanted his own Pennyworth Butler who'd watch over the family for generations, and so, he decided to be cordial and somewhat friendly with his subjects.

After they got their new clothes, Jax in a nice, dark purple and black suit and a fresh haircut, Jax looked like a modern day prince. Jada in a stylish green sequin dress that showed off all of her curves, a beautiful silver necklace, and a new hairstyle, Jada looked like a Hollywood starlet.

MJ wore a simple, yet elegant, blue silk dress showed off her petite, athletic frame. They added some makeup to help hide her bruises and pinned her hair up in an elegant style, showing off her beautiful face and making Jax's mouth water just from looking at her.

The three were dressed to impress and were ready to celebrate in the city. They chose to eat at a fancy steakhouse in Times Square, which proved to be excessively expensive, but the food was absolutely worth it, as the delicious marbled steak practically melted in their mouths.

As they were eating, they were interrupted by a voice that sounded like they were born in money.

"Well, well, I never thought I'd see one of my brightest and most beautiful geneticists eating here. I didn't even realize I paid that well haha." said a pompus rich voice, and they turned to see Norman Osborn walking up to them.

"You do take care of me on that end, but normally somewhere like here would never be somewhere we could afford. But, my son is actually treating us tonight. We're celebrating the welcome of a new family member," Jada said as she loving held MJ's hand, making her smile in return.

"And the opening of my son's new headquarters in East Harlem!" Jada said proudly. She had already called all of her friends and family to brag, but this was the first time she could brag in person, and to her cheap, penny-pincher of a boss as well.

Hearing this, Norman was genuinely shocked. Everyone has been trying to find any information on that new fortress, but the place was locked up tighter than Fort Knox. So to hear that his researchers son owned it, he was more than a little surprised.

Before Norman could get a chance to say anything, an explosion went off down the street, followed by another one even closer. It didn't take long for panic to ensue, as the whole square turned into chaos and people started screaming and running around frantically. Ignoring Norman being pulled away by his security, Jax looked to his family and thought of nothing but getting them to safety.

"Mom, you have to use a Mark to get you and MJ to safety!" Jax said as he stood and used his body as a shield between the windows and his family.

"No way, young man, you're coming with us!" Jada said with finality.

"I get you're worried, but now isn't the time! I have to go and save Giles, as there's no way he was able to get away in those explosions. Plus, you and MJ can die, I can't. You know that. So please, get her to safety, and I'll follow you as soon as I can!" Jax said before he kissed MJ goodbye and ran off before Jada could argue.

"Grr, I swear I'm throwing him in the dark dimension one of these days!" Jada roared before she turned and held the frightened MJ, and drug her to a less crowded and dark corner of the restaurant. Thanks to the chaos, now one paid attention to the two beautiful girls in the corner, nor when the disappeared in the blink of an eye.

Back at the new house, Jada and MJ appeared with a whoosh, and MJ fell to her butt. Knowing that MJ is probably freaking out at the moment, Jada quickly knelt down to her and started explaining things.

"MJ, just breathe and listen to me. Me and Jax are a little special, and some people call us Mutants. We have special powers, but we're still normal people at the end of the day, so there is no reason to fear us, I promise! We both love and adore you and would never do anything to put you in harm's way." Jada said, desperately hoping that MJ accepted them, or she feared Jax's heart might be crushed if she rejected him.

"I-I knew already, I'm just scared about the explosions and worried about Jax! Why did he stay?! Isn't he in danger too?" MJ asked in a shaky voice.

To this, Jada was genuinely surprised that MJ said she already knew as Jax assured that he didn't tell her and was the one that wanted to keep their secret from her.

"Y-you knew? How did you find out?" Jada asked, confused.

At this, MJ looked down and began fidgeting. "Before me and Jax started hanging out, I had a massive crush on him, but I was too shy to say anything. So, I may have developed a bad habit of following him when we were in school. One day when we were on a field trip to Oscorp, Jax said he had to use the restroom, but he went the wrong way, so I followed him like I normally did, but when he went to a shadowy area, he disappeared, then showed up an hour later out of no where before we left. I was so stunned, I accidentally walked into the back of him, and that's how we met." MJ said nervously, hoping Jada didn't think she was too weird for following her son around.

Little did she know, Jada was more focused on an entirely different fact, as she clearly remembered the day in question. The day several things were stolen from Oscorp with no suspects besides rumors of The Hand somehow being involved.

'Is Jax involved with The Hand? It would explain who'd be able to afford a fortress and where he got all of his money. Either way, Jax is hiding things from me, and it's time I get to the bottom of it.' Jada thought to herself, a storm brewing in her mind.

Unaware of the events happening at home, Jax was now in his armor, standing at the top of a skyscraper, looking down on the city. Jax had already teleported Giles and the car back to the headquarters and told him to drive to the house and wait for him, but there was no way Jax was going to miss the first bit of action he's seen since he came to this world.

Using the rooftops to follow the explosions, Jax was surprised to see the X-Men were fighting what Jax could only assume to be the Hellfire Club throughout the city. Jax even spotted his dad, Logan in his Wolverine uniform, fighting against a giant metal man who could only be Colossus, except, things didn't look to good for Logan or the other X-Men at the moment.

Logan tried to claw at Colossus, but his claws merely left a few scratches across his thick metal skin before healing right away. But as he was about to claw him again, Colossus grabbed ahold of Logan and started trying to gruesomely tear him to pieces.

'I know dad said he'd be gone for a while on a mission, but I didn't think about it being against the Hellfire Club! I have to save him!' Jax thought, fearful that he may lose his father right when they were just starting to get close.

Back to the fight, Logan was fighting for his life to get out of Colossus's hold, but he wasn't as strong as he used to be thanks to the Adamantium poisoning, so all he could do was toil uselessly and hope for the best.

"Today I will finally break you, little man!" yelled Colossus in a thick Russian accent, as he was about to use the final force needed to tear Logan in half.

But before he could, danger had teleported behind him. "Let him go, you Russian vibrator!" Jax shouted from mid air behind Colossus.

Before anyone could react, Jax had extended his claws, shrouded in darkness, and sent a devastating slash to Colossus's right arm, nearly cutting it off all together, causing him to drop Logan as he screamed out in pain.

Before Logan could hit the floor, Jax grabbed him and teleported his a short distance away. "Are you okay?! He didn't break you did he? I know you're old and with brittle bones, so if it hurts anywhere, just let me know!" Jax said frantically, checking over the confused Logan for any injuries.

"Who the hell are- Wait.. no... no, no, no! I know you are not who I think you are, because if you are, you will be in a world of trouble young man! Do you know what kind of danger you just put yourself in?! Now you're mother is going to kill us both!" Logan yelled at the realization that his son just put his life in danger over him.

"But he was going to break you like a toothpick and nobody else was even helping you! I mean, why is that huge blue guy trying to fight that short, weirdly sexy bug lady while you have to get beat up by a giant, walking stop sign?! Plus, why train me if you didn't want me to fight?!" Jax retorted, but calmed down a little when he saw the Logan was almost completely healed and ready to fight again.

"So that you can protect yourself and stay OUT of danger, you dumbass! Now, before it's too late, hurry up and-" Logan yelled before his and Jax's danger senses were going haywire and several shadows loomed over them. Just as Logan leapt away and Jax teleported a short distance away, the spot where they were was completely turned into a gravel filled crater.

"You hurt me pretty badly, Littler Man! Now, I'm going to hurt you!" Colossus said, trying to smash Jax with his left arm, but missed and hit the ground instead.

"I think I'd prefer you hurting me with kindness instead, big fella! Old man, I'll leave him to you so that you can get even!" Jax called out to Logan before he teleported away, narrowly dodging a strike from a prehensile red tail, as the sound of 'bamf' appeared behind him, setting of his danger senses again.

"Well, well, looks like we have a new face joining us! And he wants to challenge little 'ol me in the game of teleporting, huh? It'd be my pleasure!" yelled Azazel as he began chasing after Jax and shooting his paralysing bolts at him.

Though Azazel normally has no challenger when it comes to teleporting, this time was proving to be vastly different. Not only was he facing a man who ruled and controlled darkness, he was fighting said man at night time, when he was his strongest!

If only he knew his opponents abilities or what he planned to do, he just might run away and take his team with him as well, because he just my be facing the real devil!
