Eric vs. S.H.I.E.L.D
Kevin, the chief of the police station, was looking forward to a quiet evening, with plans to enjoy some hot cocoa and doughnuts. However, his good mood was abruptly shattered by the ringing phone.
"Hello, this is the police station. What's the matter?" Kevin answered.
"There's been a Mutant attack at the train station," the voice on the other end reported.
"What?!" Kevin's expression darkened. As a staunch anti-Mutant, he felt obligated to confront these creatures.
"Is it at the train station? I'm on my way," he replied, preparing to lead the police station to the scene.
But as he was about to leave, he ran into a man dressed in a suit.
"Hey, watch where you're going, man. Don't slow me down," Kevin snapped.
"My name is Phil Coulson, and S.H.I.E.L.D. is handling this matter," Phil responded, showing Kevin his credentials.
"Alright, alright," Kevin stammered after reading the document. He realized that Phil Coulson was a figure of immense power, well beyond his jurisdiction.
.....
Phil Coulson orchestrated the special forces to encircle the entire police station, with every firearm, including sniper rifles, trained on the station's entrance.
Eric emerged, flanked by a multitude of armed special forces.
"Quite the welcoming committee," Eric remarked, glancing at the formidable assembly outside.
"Stay still, hands up, and place them on your head," Coulson commanded.
"Magneto, you're completely surrounded. Surrender now!" Coulson led the charge, positioning the special forces to guard the station's gate.
The police were ill-equipped to handle Mutants of this caliber; only the military stood a chance.
"This is all futile," Eric shook his head, extending his hand to effortlessly lift the armored car before him. With a subtle gesture, it contorted as if manipulated by an invisible force, rendering it a twisted heap of metal, a grim reminder of the potential consequences for those too slow to react.
One of them surely paid the price for underestimating Eric's capabilities.
"Whoa! Incredible!" Numerous special forces marveled at the sight of the armored car reduced to scrap, their astonishment echoing through the air.
Under Magneto's control, the mangled remains of the armored car levitated above the surrounding vehicles, then were abruptly released, crashing down onto the target below.
As the armored vehicles were systematically dismantled, the tight defense crumbled, exposing glaring vulnerabilities.
After several vehicles were reduced to wreckage, the special forces redirected their focus, aiming their weapons at Eric.
With a smirk, Eric gestured, causing all the firearms to soar uncontrollably toward him.
The guns abruptly changed direction, now aimed at their original owners, safeties released, and returned to a state of readiness. A perplexed silence fell over the special forces as they exchanged uncertain glances.
The sheer inhumanity of this power left Coulson feeling utterly powerless. It only fueled his determination to assemble individuals with formidable abilities, envisioning an effective response to super-Ability crimes.
Eric, surveying the guns in the hands of the bewildered special forces, couldn't help but smirk coldly. "Useless humans and weapons," he scoffed.
Suddenly, Sabretooth, positioned beside Eric, seized Eric's neck and gruffly uttered, "Enough, Eric."
On the other side, Frogman also addressed Eric, stating, "Let them go."
Even Angel, hovering in the air with metallic wings, had her sights set on Eric. It became apparent that they were all under the influence of Charles' psychic power.
Observing his controlled subordinates, Eric scanned the surroundings and declared coldly, "Charles, show yourself if you've got the nerve."
Inside a car, Charles sighed helplessly. He took control of Sabretooth and inquired, "Why do you want to capture her? She's a student of Alex, you know."
"Charles, can't you read my thoughts?" Eric responded confidently, assured by Alex's approval. Even if Anna were kidnapped, Eric believed there would be no issue as long as she remained unharmed.
Charles, unfazed, countered, "If you want to save her, you'll have to go through me. But what's the point? The law has already marked you as a threat to humanity."
"It won't end like that," Charles asserted.
"Then prove it. Kill me or let me go," Eric retorted, directing a cold gaze at Sabretooth.
