SU/Lovecraft(a not so reagal meeting)
N/A: I really love the concept of Pheonix and Lovecraft Kurt being frenemies but let´s increase the situation by making Lovecraft Kurt from the higher member of the Outer God court (the big boss) and Pheonix is the lower member.

If the humans can come up for a location to the Greek Gods, the Mount Olympus, sure they can think of a place where the Outer Gods live, except they don´t. The concept of home to an entity that exists as long the universe gives the proverbial first step is hard to conceive and even so their "homes" can often change in a blink of an eye.
Nyarlathotep is often taken by the changes as his own name morphed from the universe to universe, to people to people, yet, the fear remains, the power remains. There was an old time where this power was enough, now, it hardly matters(or now it is the only thing that truly matters to him)
In his indigo fur humanoid form, the entity merely observes the space where the chaos resides, the servants are doing their chores the best they can(how can one ignore the looming eye of chaos itself?) until their master asked them to leave. He wishes to be alone with his thoughts.
His humanoid hand goes to the pink bubble, the only thing that never suffered any change, it is not from his own design as pink does not go well with his aesthetic, but, is a gift the crawling god of chaos can´t ever get rid of.
Putting a hand on the surface the entity ponders in destroying the gift, rip to shreds, it wouldn´t take a second to do so, yet, his hands remained unmoved.
("this, my dear Nyar, is a present for you" "about my conquest in the red sands?" "no, well, sort of, but because I want to give you a present, the humans do give present to the person they love")
HIs eyes are closed as now tears only make itself known once fat drops of tears drop on the floor and the name was spoken with reverence. Zaorva.
"Glad to know that not everything changes, the primordial matters still remains," the voice is familiar even if the body changes. Pheonix in her bird flame form greets the crawling god of chaos in a mockery of a bow. "Still pining over her? how long has been since she dies? a few centuries, right?"
A tentacle flies to her beak and breaks it causing a loud sound echoes in the place. A new beak is crafted from her flames(but the pain still lingers)
"Is good to know that your stupidity never changes, the primordial things never change"
"Haha, your sense of humour still remains," Pheonix said and didn´t seem to mind the throne in the centre of the place, the symbolic image of his power and dominance.
"Why are you here? You have a host now, go destroy the earth, it would make me very happy" the crawling god respond and Pheonix only replied that that´s the reason why she can´t destroy the earth.
"But I came here to seek Zaorva" the word was spoken with a myriad of feelings. Disgust, envy, respect, sadness and joy. The crawling God has no qualms in breaking and cause more pain to the flame bird(and old dance of them) until he finally replied.
"If you wish to die again, all you have to do is speak, Cthylla knows very well how much I want to get rid of her, despair and destruction know what I can do, so, Pheonix you are nothing to me, if you wish to die, I´ll be happy to give you this ride"
"Charming as always, Nyarty, "Pheonix laughs off(it irks him how this nickname can be used by someone else aside his Zaorva, it saddens him that she won´t call him anything ever again) like a threat against her life it wasn´t a big deal, it used not be a big deal, now death is the main topic, no one can talk about anything as the change means Zaorva´s death and they aren´t immune to death as they thought so.
"But, do you really want to get rid of the earth? she always liked that planet"
"It will give me the immeasurable pleasure to see that planet gone, and if won´t help me, I will destroy with my own hands"
"Yes, but...what if Zaorva is there?" Pheonix laughs manically at the anger in his face and the crawling God take the form of the true entity covering the space with his mere presence, only the light of the Pheonix shines now.
"I meet that woman, Kitty Pryde, and she has Zaorva´s shield, and think about, no one, not even the girl the old Belasco tried to recruit can summon such weapon, now, this petite woman can summon and use the shield as it is hers"
"She is just a herald of Zaorva, stupid bird"
"I suppose that is correct, it is logic and rich coming from you, but, not even her most favourite herald, Venus, can summon the shield, why this woman can?" Pheonix takes a small victory as the crawling god is confused as the Firebird continues. "I fight her, and true, maybe you are right, my host was a mess and I admit this could have contributed to her victory as I did committed mistakes in the past, but, crawling god of chaos, think about it, only one person can use the Zaorva´s shield, why this small herald can?"
"Maybe she is a herald, but what if she isn´t it?"
"What if I break your existence and spread among the universe again?" the anger and bitterness in his words to prove a point to Pheonix. Doubt, not even him could use the shield, why this human can?
"Oh no, thank you, I´m still adjusting to this host, but, think about it, and later you can do whatever you want" the firebird flies away and the crawling god of chaos has many things to ponder now.

Meanwhile, on earth, the X-men are taking care of their injuries and getting information on what happened.
"So, sugah, Jean got infected by Pheonix, fight you and flies off?" Rogue asked using a borrow ability to heal to take care some of Scott´s injuries.
"Yes, it was my shield, I was lucky" Kitty speaks as she did tell Ororo the situation, the older woman is not happy with Jean for a long time, but is not sure if she is relieved or sad with Jean Grey gone.
The victory is cut short when Kitty reveals some macabre things, the X-men need to be prepared.
"Spit out, Kitty, you have that look that means, more bad news, ok, tell us, we are X-men, we are used," Scott said as Rogue kissed his check("well, Scott Summer has a sense of humour" "it was bound to happen")
"Remember the Kurt guy fellow, the alien that wears masks? it turns out he is a bigger threat to us and I think, and I can´t believe I´ll say this, but we need the Avengers help" many react negatively to the news until a new voice joins the conversation.
"Katya is right, Nyarlathotep, the crawling god of chaos plans to destroy the earth and we can´t face him alone" Yana shows up and Kitty won´t mention that she did shiver when using his name. "I dislike that as much as you do Scott, but, we can´t face him alone" Yana then asks Kitty for her help, she knows how to deal with people(Yana´s words) and now they need all the help.
