"What do you want from us? Hold us ransom? SHIELD never negotiates with terrorists and neither will Lord Magnus. SHIELD will come soon to beat your a**." Jessica said in a loud tone.
"SHIELD? You all belong to SHIELD?" John asked. He didn't care if all of SHIELD was coming for him. He had nigh godlike powers to make the whole of Earth vanish if he wished to. But of course there were conditions for that and it would have repercussions which would echo on the multiverse.
"We are all official members of SHIELD. You have no place to hide." the Nightcrawler said with a hint of pride. His tone meant that he felt immense pride working for SHIELD.
"What the hell is wrong with this world? Why is it so upside down? X-men belonging to SHIELD. New branch of humans. And then there is this Lord Magnus. Wait! Magnus? You all mean like Erik Magnus?" John asked as he suddenly had a revelation. His memories went through a special story line. A story line which changed all of Marvel.
"Of course it is Lord Erik Magnus. Who else will it be? The King of mutants and all homo superior. Invader you have the audacity to play dumb with us after all this. " Mystique said.
"Where is Professor X?" John asked this time as was kind of sure now of what was going on.
"Charles Xavier died years ago." Jessica said as she felt this new invader really might not know what was going. If this guy with a weird helmet was acting then he was doing too perfect of a job.
"No wonder this world is upside down. No wonder you all belong to SHIELD. Now this is going to be so interesting." John now said with a smile. He now knew why the world was this.
It was one of the most interesting and sad stories that changed their universe forever. This famous story ended with those famous lines.
"No more mutants."
And John was at the cusp of the story. Even though John loved this story it was a tragic one nonetheless. John's eyes shined when he thought of what he could do here. Strange of this universe once went to his place and rampaged around.
Now, it was his turn. But John was confused too. Strange was supposed to be all powerful in this universe. He shouldn't have let this happen.
He needed to get to the bottom of this. The whole mystery of Strange in this regard was baffling to him. As he was thinking, new sentinels and 3 more quinjets were coming to his place. John sighed seeing this as he felt he was being vindicated for no crime.
"I am fine with whatever you want to do here, but I don't like being hunted down for no crimes." John said in a stern tone. He was ready to retaliate but the world had other plans for him.
As the sentinels were approaching, a man on a huge black cloak appeared out of nowhere. And before John could say something the cloak of the man covered him. And the next moment they both vanished.
The chains that were holding down the 4 mutants and the weapons that made the sentinels stop vanished too. After the disappearance of the weapons from the body of the sentinels, they exploded while Nightcrawler was able to take the other three and teleport away to another building.
"Who the hell was that? I have never seen such a person wearing a golden helmet. His rate of healing can even put Wolverine to shame." Rogue said as they heaved in relief after getting away from the chains.
"I don't know. We are just following orders but he sure as hell is a tough nut to crack. Those chains are not to be trifled with." Nightcrawler said as he really felt scared after being held down by the golden chains. His main power of teleportation seemed useless in front of him.
"We need to inform SHIELD and Lord Magnus that we have failed this mission. He has been taken away by the Resistance. We need to move fast. This invader isn't simple like the small group of Resistance."
"Agreed. We can't take him lightly. He has a very weird way of using weapons. I have never seen any mutation from anyone with such weird powers." Jessica said.
Two more quinjets of SHIELD arrived and from the hangar emerged two new X-men. Scott Summers (Cyclops from X- men movies) and Emma Frost (White Queen X - men First class, she was the woman who could turn herself to diamond and had immense telepathic powers).
"You both look like you met a very tough opponent." Scott said who wore red glasses as usual instead of wearing the X-men attire.
"Because he was. He was way too powerful for all of us. He decimated the sentinels like it was nothing. And had healing powers far surpassing Wolverine. We need to get him back." Rogue said.

John on the other hand who had just disappeared with a guy was now in a huge room. This room was dark but there was enough light to see that there were people present in the room. John could see several figures clearly.
And surprisingly he knew some of the figures present in the room. There was
Luke Cage ( from marvel Netflix series, his powers consist of tough skin. It is said that no bullet could penetrate his body. He was a result of experimentation).
Hawkeye.
Moon Knight (new marvel series of a man who has multiple personalities and his powers comes from the Egyptian God Khonsu. You can watch the upcoming series to know more about him).
Mockingbird ( An agent of SHIELD from Agents of SHIELD tv series but recently in the Hawkeye series it is said that the wife of Hawkeye is the Mockingbird) and also some faces who John didn't have any idea about.
And then he saw the person who brought him here. A man who wore a black cloak over his body. After looking at him closely John knew who he was.
Cloak (From marvel cloak and dagger series. His powers come from dark dimension. Not the same dark dimension as Dormammu. He has enhanced strength, phasing powers like Vision and teleportation).
But what really looked odd to his eyes was the costume of Clint. It was ridiculous to say the least. John thought when he read the comics that the portrayal of Hawkeye in that ridiculous suit was just a mockery. But now when he saw this, the universe just mocked John in return. John wanted to cry after seeing such a costume.
Clint on the other hand took out his bow and arrow and pointed at John.
"Oye Legolas. It was this guy who brought me here. Why are you pointing arrows at me? I am the victim here. Is that how you treat victims?" John said pointing at Cloak
"I didn't bring you. It was him who brought you here. You are under our hands now." Clint said.
"Seriously, your costume is already nauseating for me." John mumbled and then a spear appeared behind him. Before Hawkeye could process how a spear appeared out of nowhere it travelled in fast speed and hit his bow. The force was so huge it threw the bow away from his hand.
Luke Cage and others immediately got vigilant when that spear stuck Clint's bow. And the spear that was stuck crumbled into dust before vanishing.
Everyone couldn't even understand what just happened. Surprisingly it was Cloak who didn't mean to take any action.
"Cloak, who in God's name did you bring? Why is he here?" Luke asked.
"He soloed 4 high level Agents of SHIELD and 4 sentinels like it was nothing. And I felt he could help us. So I brought him here." Cloak said in a mild tone.
Clint, who had just lost his bow, took out his knife. He ran to John to tackle him only to hit a transparent shield. His face got plastered on the shield and it looked funny. This shield too was one of the weapons on John's Gate of Babylon.
"Clint, can you stop with your ridiculous behavior? You are making the Resistance look bad." John said as he went and sat on a nearby chair. Luke and others just looked at all of this. They didn't go and tackle John because from the movement of the spear they could tell that John could have killed Clint easily but he chose not to do so.
Even though Cloak just said that he won by a margin against the high level of SHIELD agents, it wasn't satisfactory enough for this new person who they haven't seen the face of the person.
Luke, who was the leader of the Avengers, now feared that his new person was a spy of SHIELD and whatever Cloak saw was just theatrics. But he knew that if John was a spy it was already too late. Cloak had already brought him and Sentinels would be coming any moment.
"Avengers, secure the perimeter. Cloak, Clint, Mark. We need to take this guy down. He is probably a spy." Luke said. They hadn't been able to process what just happened and he was a little pissed off by seeing the non nonchalance of John.
John who just got to sit on the chair heard this.
"What the hell is wrong with you all? Are you guys dumb or something? If I was a spy do you think you all would have survived? Jesus! I just came to this universe and all I am listening to is me being an invader, a spy, a liar... Where are the good men? Can't a man just sit in peace?"John said.
"It was Cloak who brought me here, not the other way round. I could have easily survived their onslaught and maybe just make the SHIELD vanish from the Earth for good. Trust me, almost no power on Earth can defeat me if I really wanted to. Instead of focusing on me you should focus on your own team. Your team is so small that SHIELD doesn't even care about you."

"That moment when you see a move that I portrayed in the book has been used in the movie. Got to say that it did 'put a smile on my face'"
Watch the movie. It's good!!
