Chapter 10: Magneto's plan
Scott and Jean pull up on the Xavier mansion with Scott speeding down the path.
"Wohoo, let the weekend begin." Scott says excited and jumps out of the car, running into the mansion.
"Wait, you're forgetting your homework, make that ignoring it." Jean yells after him and gets out of the car herself. Once she does she can hear a rustling coming from the bushes to her left and walks into the woods asking "Hello? Kitty are you climbing trees again? Evan is that you?" and telekinetically rips out a small brush that someone is hiding behind.
"Oh so that's the way you wanna play huh?" Toad asks her, hopping up to a tree and breaking off a branch for him to use as a club.
"Toad what are you doing?" Jean asks him but he only swipes her feet with his stick in response.
"I'm getting the jump on the competition yo. You want some of this?" Toad asks her, swinging his stick at her only for Jean to stop him telekinetically while she's getting up and throws him over himself asking "Toad, what are you trying to prove?"
"That I'm a champ and not a chump yo, and guess what we all gotta prove it." Toad tells her and swings at her only for her to break his stick and throw him in the well, right next to them.
Jean goes over to check on him only for a metal ball to decend from the skies and open up, snatching her with metallic tentacles that wrap around her limbs and drag her into the ball. The ball then closes up and flies away, leaving only a small crater behind.
|Meanwhile in Hawaii|
Alex Masters, a blonde tanned teen is paddling in the ocean on his surfboard, lying down and lazing around when a shark attacks him and he manages to somehow drive it away with a mysterious energy originating from his hands.
Alex hurries back ashore and lies down in the sand asking himself "Oh man, what's going on with me?" when Magneto reveals himself, levitating over to the boy.
"I know the kind of pain you're feeling Alex, I once felt it myself." He says.
"Where did you come from?" Alex asks shocked.
"I've just arrived, to see you. I know…" Magneto tells him.
"You don't know nothing man, just back off." Alex tells him.
"Your bones they burn, your head ache. The pressure in your head, I can give you relief and answers. You never have to feel pain again." Magneto says.
"You some kind of doctor?" Alex questions.
"No Alex, I am Magneto and I have come to offer you sanctuary." Magneto tells him, offering his hand to the teen.
|At the Institute|
Charles Xavier gets the reading about Alex and informs Logan about it, also telling him that he is Scott's long lost brother and that magneto will most likely try to approach Alex as well. While Logan is prepping the Blackbird Xavier informs the others to gather their gear because they are going to Hawaii.
Scott is the first to arrive and Xavier informs him that this trip is actually about his brother who as it turns out is still alive. Scott is shocked to the core and runs into the blackbird, demanding they take off immediately and Logan complies after getting a nod positive from the professor.
Rogue, Kitty, Ben and Evan run into the hangar only to see the blackbird take off.
"Hey what's the sitch? I thought we were Hawaii bound?" Evan asks pissed off.
"Here I am, ready to give my arm to the cause." Kurt says teleporting into the hangar, dressed in a hawaii shirt and with a board under his arm.
Seeing the annoyed expression on his friends faces he turns around and sees the blackbird missing.
"Oh man." Kurt says disappointed.
"We got totally ditched." Rogue says annoyed.
"Hey you can't really blame Scott, meeting a brother he hasn't seen in like 10 years. I wouldn't want a crowd either." Kitty tells them.
"Hey, I'm thinking. Hawaii, not the only beach in the world right. Road trip anyone?" Kurt suggests and everyone agrees, changing into something suitable for the beach and they meet back at the x-van.
Kurt drives it out of the garage and retracts the sunroof.
"Hussle it up Rogue, before Auntie O catches us and blows our plans." Evan shouts as Rogue runs over to them, being the only one missing.
Kurt and Evan stayed in their previous outfits while Kitty is wearing a one piece swimsuit with a shirt over it that's tied into a knot on one side and is wearing sunglasses, same as everyone else.
"I couldn't find Jean so I left her a note." Rogue tells them getting in the van and closing her seatbelt.
Rogue is wearing a track suit and her usual black gloves.
Unknown to the teens Mystique who was disguised as a common cat watched them leave and informs her pupils, telling them where the X-men were headed.
"Hey, were is Ben?" She asks as Kurt starts to drive off the Institute.
"Right here sweety." A high-pitched voice says and Rogue looks over to see Ben sitting cross-legged in between Kitty's legs.
"What are you doing down there ya perv?" Rogue asks teasingly.
"Nothing." Ben replies defeated and climbs over Kitty's leg, sitting down in between his girlfriends in his Greymatter form.
"Aww come here." Rogue says and picks him up cuddling him to her cheek.
"Hey, stop that. Man I seriously regret not having gone ahead with XLR8." Ben says.
Getting Rogue to laugh and give him a kiss on his head, putting him down in between herself and Kitty again.
|In Hawaii|
Logan lands the blackbird on the beach Alex was on not to long ago.
"See anything?" Scott asks his mentors.
"No and the tide's coming in, this cove will be underwater in an hour." Logan informs him.
"Take a closer look around." Charles suggests so both Logan and Scott leave the blackbird to look for anything that can tell them what happened to Scott's brother.
"You think it's his?" Scott asks checking the surfboard lying on the beach.
"Maybe. Hmm, looks like company dropped in on him, literally and left the same way." Logan replies and follows a trail of footsteps.
"What kind of company?" Scott asks him checking out the footprints himself.
"Magneto." Logan says grumpily.
"Who? Who's Magneto?" Scott asks, this being his first time hearing the name.
"I got a feeling you're about to find out." Logan grumbles.
"I know you're here Magneto, I can sense it. Show yourself." Charles tells his old nemesis telepathically and in response Magneto takes control of the blackbird.
"It's him." Logan says running towards the moving plane and manage to jump aboard, clawing himself into the outer shell.
Scott sees a shadow come from behind him and turns around, seeing a teen his age standing on a small cliff.
"Alex? Is it really you?" Scott shouts disbelieving.
"Scott? Scott!" Alex shouts excitedly and jumps down, meeting his brother in a hug.
"Man it's like you came back from the dead. I've had dreams like this." Alex tells him.
"Me too, this one's real though and look at you, where is that scrawny little kid I used to pick on." Scott asks.
"Man I still can't believe it. When Magneto told me you were showing up…" Alex says.
"Whoa, Magneto? That guy just kidnapped my professor." Scott tells him.
"No, no you got it wrong. He told me all about it and he wants to show him something. Come here for a sec. He wants to show all of us, you know mutants. He told me you're one and guess what so am I, see check this out." Alex tells him, coating his hands in energy.
"Magneto is great Scott. He knows so much and he wants to meet with us, that's all. I'm going, I mean how could I not but you gotta come too OK?" Alex explains, leading his brother over to a metal ball.
"That thing there will take us to Magneto?" Scott asks looking at the metal ball.
"Alright, I'll go just to keep an eye on you and to find professor X." Scott says agreeing and enters the ball with his brother.
Meanwhile on the blackbird Magneto is taking Charles to his hideout as well, while he drops off Wolverine on the same isle Sabretooth is already waiting on. During the plane ride he explains to Charles that the mutants are the future and that the humans will only fear them and that their existence is threatened by this.
|Back at the Institute|
Storm arrived in the Institute and is walking around, looking for anyone but only finds a small cat, which turns into Mystique once she turned her back to it.
"Well, look what the cat dragged in." Storm says readying her lightning powers to blast Mystique, who jumps at the whitehaired woman only to get shocked and shot back by the lightning.
Mystique rebounds relatively quickly and manages to throw storm down a level, back into the entry area and Strom responds by using her wind powers to blow away the blue skinned woman.
Mystique comes rushing right back at Storm and tackles her down, landing behind the woman.
"Give it up and I'll end this quick windrider. I shouldn't even have to prove myself to him." Mystique says angrily and tries to hit storm with a jump kick, only for her to dodge to the side and summon mist telling her "I don't know why you have chosen to attack me and in truth I don't much care. This is my home and you're not welcome here." Storm disappears into the mist and reappears behind Mystique, knocking her out with a strong punch to the head. Once the fight is over another Metal ball crashes into the Institute and collects Storm.
|with Ben and the others|
"Oh man you feel that ocean breeze? I'm going into meltdown here all covered up like this. I hate it." Rogue says stretching her arms.
"Hey, once we get there I can cool you down." Ben tells her with a pat to her leg.
"Yeah well you should try being blue and furry, it's murder." Kurt tells her and turns off his holographic watch.
"Kurt the road!" Rogue yells, seeing the road come apart. Kurt dodges to the side, taking the railing with him, barely able to keep the car on solid ground and suddenly a green van speeds up behind them and rams them.
"What is going on?" Kurt yells.
"It's Lance Alberts and his buddies." Kitty yells back, seeing Lance use his powers to try and knock them off the road.
"I'll slow them down." Evan says and uses his spikes to try and take out the other guys tires.
"Now avalanche." Quicksilver tells him and Avalanche shakes loose a pile of rocks they set up beforehand, forcing the X-Men off the road and into the waiting Belly of Blob.
"Come here often?" Blob asks and takes their car, shaking the teens out of it into the sand below and Avalanche uses his powers to bury them in the sand.
"That didn't take too long at all." Toad says looking at the filled in sinkhole. Kurt and Rogue appear behind them, having teleported out of the trap while Kitty helps Evan out of the hole.
Then Mystique's followers see an enormous hand come out of the former hole and Ben slowly stands up, having shifted into humongosaur once his team cleared out.
"Time to prove yourself Evan." Quicksilver says knocking the teen over.
" And you're staying behind." Blob yells, jumping at Kitty, only for Ben to take the teen in midair and fling him into the waters behind them.
"Thanks Babe." Kitty yells up thankfully.
Kurt is on Avalanches back, but teleports away once the teen gries to grab his tail and lands on some rocks in the area. Avalanche causes a rift towards the rocks and they collapse, with Kurt falling down with them and teleporting mid air, taking some of the rocks with him though. He lands on the sand and gets hit on the head by a rock, knocking him out.
Blob manages to swim back on land and sneaks up on Kitty, shoving her roughly, knocking her out.
"I got you beat and you know it Evan." Pietro says speeding around the teen and increasing his speed until Evan is buried up to his head in the sand that got picked up in the process.
Toad is trying to take out Rogue but Rogue dodges Toads tongue, by jumping to the side and shuts the car door while Toads tongue is still inside.
"Can't say I want your slimy thoughts in my head toad but I'm dropping you right here." Rogue says to the teen which flew face first into the car door.
"Relax Rogue, it's over." Avalanche says, touching her arm.
"I think you've got something quite wrong there pebble flinger." Ben tells him angrily in his deep voice and moves to grab the teen only for four metal balls to come flying at them at high speeds.
"There comes our reward." Blob tells her, pointing at the balls.
The three winners of mystiques squad enter the ball quickly, while Rogue is getting dragged in by the tentacles.
"Rogue!" Ben yells and instantly shifts into Lodestar, his magnetic alien and tries to free the girl but he feels another magnetic field overpowering his and rendering his useless.
"Ben!" Rogue screams for help and Ben shifts back into humongosaur to try and rip open the ball but before he can get his finger into the opening the ball is already closed and taking off along with the other four.
Ben shifts into his four-arm form and picks up Toad by his tongue, getting a whiny protest by the weak teen.
He then goes over to Evan, pulling him out of the sand with two hands and setting him down before going over to Kurt, throwing him over his shoulder and lastly he checks on Kitty, seeing her only knocked out without any sign of injuries and gently lifts her up in his two remaining hands.
"Evan you can drive right?" Ben asks the teen only getting a shrug in response.
"Watch Toad then will ya?" Ben asks him, putting the two unconscious and one struggling teen into their x-van and helps Evan into it as well.
"Man, how are we gonna drive that thing, it's wrecked." Evan asks him pissed at Toad and the others.
"don't worry, I got it covered." Ben replies shifting into a white and black blob with green circuit lines running over the black. He then covers the vehicle and starts to change it to his will, upgrading it with Jet thrusters and small wings, he rips out of the others' jeep and takes off flying in his makeshift shuttle back to the Institute.
Charles is talking with Magneto on his base, a meteor which is levitating somewhere near the north pole. "Your goals aside, what happens when mutants won't come willingly?" Charles questions him.
"Sometimes salvation must be force fed." Magneto tells him, showing him three capsules containing an knocked out Rogue, Jean and Storm.
"You didn't help them, you kidnapped them." Charles says appalled.
"A certain amount of persuasion may still be needed, but for every unbeliever there is a new convert." Magneto tells him with his crew assembling behind him and motions over to a door from which Scott and Alex appear, shocking the professor.
"Scott I don't understand." Charles says.
"Professor wait, we're just here to listen. That's all." Scott tells him.
"Are they here to listen as well?" Charles questions him, looking over to the three capsules.
"Hey, what is this!" Scott yells angrily.
"Simply a precaution Scott, not everyone has the maturity to accept the need for change as you do. Not yet." Magneto informs him.
"Let them out!" Scott demands.
"I will, we just need to proceed cautiously, trust me they are perfectly save." Magneto tells him but Charles says "Are they save Scott? Are any of us save? I know this man well and his motives cannot be trusted." Telepathically, resulting in him getting put into another capsule as well, he only manages to inform Logan to lose the battle before he loses conscious as well.
While all this was going on Logan, who was trapped on an Isle with Sabretooth was brawling it out with his nemesis until he gets a telepathic message from Charles, telling him to lose the fight.
Not doubting the man Logan throws the fight and Sabretooth gets taken by a metal ball, leaving Logan a helicopter to use to return to the Institute.
|Institute|
"What happened here?" Kurt asks shocked seeing the destruction caused by Storm's and Mystique's fight.
"Oh my gosh." Kitty says worried, walking into the building with Ben hugging her close.
"This place is thrashed." Evan says looking around.
"Oh man, you guys live like slobs." Toad, who filled them in on why the others were taken during the ride, tells them.
"Storm? Hey you in here?" Kitty shouts, looking for her teacher.
Mystique, who waited above the entrance jumps over them, landing face to face with Ben and Kitty.
"She's out, can I take a message?" Mystique asks cockily approaching the girl.
"better keep your distance if you want to remain blue." Ben threatens her, getting in front of Kitty and transforms his arm into that of heatblast.
"Hah, if you're still here then that means you're a loser too." Toad taunts her, laughing at her.
"Don't ever call me that." She tells him packing him by his collar.
"What are you here for, mother?" Kurt asks her still pissed about what happened the last time they met.
"Simple truth, nobody discards me. Especially not Magneto, not after all I did for him. So I'm paying him a visit, we can go together or I can go alone." She says angrily.
"You won't be alone. If Magneto's got our friends then we're going after him." Wolverine interrupts her, walking into the ruined building.
"Good, but I know the man so I'm calling the shots." Mystique demands.
"Then get your own ride, X-Men let's go." Wolverine orders and everyone other than Mystique and Toad follow him, with them following a second later while Mystique tells the X-Men "But I expect to be consulted."
"Welcome to the first test ride of the X-M Velocity." Logan tells them, flying the mixture of helicopter and Jet out of the retracting basketball field, taking off into the direction of Magneto's base.
|At Magneto's base|
"How did Magneto promise to help you?" Scott asks his little brother after talking about what happened when they got separated all those years ago.
"Not just Alex, you as well. Everyone. Together we shall embark on a wonderous renaissance and I invite you to be a part of it." Magneto tells him, leading him to a device he created.
"I build it right into the asteroid. Behold the next step in mutant evolution." Magneto tells them, showing them the device.
"What is it?" Scott asks wearily.
"A genetic enhancer. Perhaps you've heard about the legendary gems of Scythorrak? Well they do exist. Once believed to possess mythical properties, these stones actually emit a distinctive radiation." Magneto explains.
"Hey, wait a minute, you're going to nuke us?" Alex asks.
"I'm going to evolve you, to finish your growth. No more pain Alex and no more hiding behind that visor Scott. Your powers will be fully realized, giving you complete control." Magneto tells them.
"What about them? I want them released." Scott demands pointing at his knocked-out friends.
"They will be, but only after you've gone through the transformation. I want them to see what I'm offering. And it is an offer, I won't force you to go through it." Magneto replies.
"We're just supposed to trust this thing works? You go through it then." Scott tells him.
"I have, I am fully advanced but why don't I provide you with a firsthand demonstration. Sabretooth." Magneto says and the grumpy mutant enters the machine.
"In a few moments he will emerge, reborn." Magneto tells them.
And true to his words a different Sabretooth emerges, now having furr all over his body, and his legs being more of a canine shape.
"Boys, it's time to reach your full potential." Magneto says.
"What do you say? I want to but not without you Scott." Alex says and gets a nod OK from his older brother.
The two of them then enter the machine while everyone in the pods get woken up by Magneto to see the two of them enter the machine.
Charles tries to warn Scott but it was already too late and the door shut.
"Too late Charles, he's mine now." Magneto tells his old friend triumphantly.
A few moments later the two brothers emerge with a much sturdier build and now white hair.
"You shall be called Havok." Magneto tells Alex.
"Go on Scott, show us the color of your eyes." Magneto tells him and Scott takes off his shades, looking right at his former friends.
"Another benefit to your enhancement. Your minds, they are purged of useless emotions, you should have a clear perspective of our dominant roles here on earth." Magneto says and an alarm goes off.
"Aircraft." Sabretooth says looking at a screen.
"Really? Lets see who it is." Magneto says and tries to control the plane only to find any metal missing.
"Boys, defend us." Magneto tells the two newly mutated brothers and they step out of the room, onto a landing bridge and take aim at the X-M velocity.
"Scott?" Logan says surprised upon seeing the red glowing eyes aimed right at them.
Logan continues to fly towards them, when suddenly they open fire on the aircraft, causing it to come crashing right at them.
Scott and Alex manage to flee the crash by running back into the room and with Jean telekinetically pulling them out of the way, only for the two brothers to get buried under a pile of rubble, shook lose by the now thrashed aircraft.
Everyone on the X-M gets out and ready for a fight.
"Mystique, you never could take no for an answer." Magneto says annoyed and gets involved in a fight against the blue skinned woman.
Logan sees the rest of the X-Men trapped in the capsules and slices through the controls, releasing them from their prisons.
"Where is the X-Jet?" Wolverine asks the Professor.
"Observation deck, that way." Xavier tells them, pointing in its direction.
"Gather there." Logan shouts before he gets stepped on by Sabretooth.
"Strom, Rogue, prepare the Jet, Jean let's get to Scott and Alex. Charles orders and everyone gets started on their task.
Blob tries to charge Kurt only for him to teleport behind the big teen, kicking him in his back and sending him towards the metal door of the mutation machine.
Lance uses his powers to attack Evan, who was standing next to a boulder which crumbles down, heading straight at Evan, lucky for him Kitty manages to phase him out of the way in time, phasing them infront of Lance and Evan kicks him in his gut, sending him to the floor, next to Blob.
During the fight against Mystique Magneto uses two metal bars to attack her only for Toad to fetch them out of the air and Mystique to jump at him. Magneto reacts by hitting her with another piece of metal lying around and sends her flying into his machine. He jumps after her, telling her to get out of it.
Logan in his fight against Sabretooth gets support by Ben, who shifted into shocksquatch, an ape like yellow furred alien. Logan dodges a stomp attack from Sabretooth and is slowly backing away only for Ben to come swinging from the pipes running over their heads with a double fisted downwards strike, coated in lightning. This seems to do the trick and at least stuns the feral man for a while.
Pietro is fighting against Evan, running around him, only for Evan to erect a wall of spikes, making Pietro stop to go around them, in his moment of carelessness Rogue appears behind Pietro and grabs him, draining his powers.
Back at the exit heading to the Jet Storm is using her lightning abilities to try and make a way for them, but doesn't get far with it.
"Make some room." Ben tells her, shifting into an armadillo like alien with a yellow mecha suit and drills coming out of the suit.
Ben quickly drills through the first blockade without any problems, when Blob comes running past him and clears the rest of the way, just running through the blockades, getting scared by the asteroid falling apart now that Magneto is incapacitated.
Toad tells his teammates to abandon ship and join the X-men on the Jet.
"Get abord the Jet quickly." Storm tells everyone and readies the Jet with Logan, waiting for Charles and Jean.
Jean is working on freeing Scott and manages to lift enough debris off him, for him to blast his way free the rest of the way.
"You and the others you're ruining everything. This was our chance to unite all of us." Scott tells Jean and Charles angrily.
"Unite? For what and at what cost? Look what Magneto did to you." Jean replies.
"He's helped me. I'm evolved. No more training, no more hurdles. My power are now at my mercy." Scott tells her cockily.
"Yeah so you blasted your friends with it. I mean how united is that?" Jean questions.
"You don't understand. We are the future." Alex tells her.
"Really Scott? Because if this is the future, I don't want any part of it." Jean tells them and leaves.
"You're right. Mutants shouldn't be devided, but we didn't draw the line, Magneto did and it's still there, you just crossed over it." Charles tells them and leaves to join everyone on the Jet.
Alex and Scott decide to listen to Charles and are trying to get back to the others, when the bridge with the Jet collapses, leaving Logan no choice but to take off in the last minute and the two brothers to jump of the bridge, slowing their decent with their new powers.
Once on the ground Logan tries to fetch them but the Jet gets hit by debris from the asteroid, which is coming apart and is unable to fly them to safety.
As the Asteroid is coming apart two capsules shoot out of it, containing Sabretooth and Magneto, while Mystique rescues herself by other means.
As the asteroid is falling down on them Scott and Alex try to stop it, by draining their newfound powers, returning to normal but much to their misfortune they only manage to destroy part of it with the rest still coming at them.
"Girls, I think this is something I'll have to take care of." Ben tells his girlfriends, giving them a quick peck before jumping out of the jet and runs over to the two exhausted teens staring at the asteroid. He throws them over to Jean who catches them telekinetically, giving Scott his shades back and transforms into Lodestar and forcefully shoves the plane away a great distance with the others, looking on worried for his safety.
They all get shocked speechless however when in Ben's former place is now kneeling a gigantic white
alien with red helmet, shin and armguards.
Ben as way big is kneeling, with the asteroid on his back and lifts it up with some difficulty, rising to his normal height, which is equal to the size of the asteroid itself.
Ben then takes a step in the direction opposite of them and throws the massive asteroid before crossing his arms, making a plus and a enormous energy beam shoots at the asteroid, turning it into a pile of dust with a powerful shockwave, which would have knocked Ben over right onto his friends if he didn't shift back into his human form.
Kitty sees him freefalling and begs Kurt to teleport up to him and down to them.
Kurt doesn't hesitate to do as the ponytail wearing brunette suggested and appears next to her with Ben a second later.
"Man, that was wicked you, I didn't know you could do that." Toad says hopping over to Ben, who's leaning on Kitty's lap with Rogue holding his hand with her gloves still on.
"Yeah well now you all know." Ben coughs.
"You OK there bub?" Logan asks him, looking down at the teen.
"Just give me a minute will ya? I never had to use that form before." Ben replies.
"I'm sorry all of you. Professor I, you know… I made some bad choices." Scott apologizes to everyone.
"More like misinformed choices, but we owe you and Ben our lives." He tells Scott.
"Oh man this hunger is killing me." Ben groans sitting up suddenly.
"Sorry Ben, we didn't exactly bring provisions and the jet's still down so you'll have to bear with it." Storm tells him.
"Oh screw that." Ben says, getting up on wobbly feet and shifts into upgrade but falls down, looking like a glibberish blanket.
"Logan do you mind flinging me at the damaged wing?" Ben asks the older man, only getting a grunt in response before he is send flying right at the damaged part of the jet and uses his ability to patch it up.
"Now, start the damn Jet would ya?" Ben says walking back over to them, over the top of the plane.
"You sure that will hold?" Logan asks him cautiously.
"Do I look like a dumbass to you? Yes, it will hold." Ben tells him short tempered, because his hunger is causing him serious pain.
Everyone then flies back to the Institute and Quicksilver and Co quickly take off.
Ben storms out of the jet as soon as they touched down and heads straight into the kitchen, where he turns into a smaller, maybe waist height alien with green skin, a white suite and vine like tongues coming out of his mouth. He then starts to scarf down anything not bolted to the walls.
Rogue and Kitty ran after him, worried about their boyfriend while the others also follow but at a more normal pace.
"Ben, are you OK babe?" Rogue asks opening the kitchen door only to see the smaller green alien with a belly lie on his back in the middle of the kitchen.
"OK, like what happened to the refrigerator?" Kitty asks seeing multiple things missing from the kitchen, only to get a burp from Bens alien form and a few pictures that were pinned to the fridge to come flying out of his mouth.
"Seriously?" Rogue asks feeling somewhere between amused and pranked.
"Sorry?" Ben says shifting back into human and goes over to his two girls, pulling them into a strong hug.
"I'm so glad you're both alright." He tells them relief evident in his voice.
"Talk for yourself, what did you think you were doing blowing up an asteroid?" Rogue asks him.
"I didn't think, I was only trying to protect you guys at all costs." Ben tells her.
"Well don't do it again!" Rogue orders.
"How is the patient?" Evan asks being the first one to catch up to the group and sees half of the kitchen missing.
"The hell? Oh man not the fridge I was saving a milkshake in there." Evan complains.
"What is it Evan?" Charles asks, peering into the kitchen with the other X-men.
"Sorry?" Ben says apologetically.
"Don't worry, I guess this is a small price to pay for everyone being alive." Charles says chuckling lightly.
