Fear Factor X
The Magnus Protocols

This Story takes place in an alternative reality, where Charles Xavier's dream is just beginning. The X Men in this reality are; Nightcrawler, Psylocke, Colossus, Quicksilver and the Scarlet Witch. During their first battle with the Brotherhood Magneto was incapacitated and is recovering in the medical bay.

Part 1; XSE 'My students have defeated the Brotherhood of Mutants and the Canadian super team Alpha Flight. It has been almost six months now since we first fought the Brotherhood. Forge and Maverick have moved on from the ranks of the X Men to pastures new. The Canadian government arrived three months ago to collect their agents. My old friend Eric Lensherr is slowly recovering but I am becoming increasingly anxious about what state he shall be in if he wakes!' From the Diary of Charles Francis Xavier.

The medical unit bleeped consistently showing that the Master of Magnetism's condition was becoming stabilised. A window beside his bed was open causing a light spring wind to fill the room. The breeze brushed the face of one of the most powerful mutants on the planet. It rustled his grey hair. Suddenly his eyes opened and he sat bolt up right. "CHARLES!"

The Westchester Mansion was in quite a remote location even though it was only an hour and a half drive from New York City. The long road running past the Mansion was empty there were no cars in any direction. The only thing that was unusual was four pinpricks of light drifting about four feet from the ground. The lights grew brighter and brighter until they joined together and four people stepped from the large light. The first was a tall muscular man with a short neat goatee, over his right eye he had a large M tattooed. The next person to come through was a blond woman dressed in the same yellow and blue uniform. She also had a M tattoo.

The last two to exit from the light were two men about mid-thirties. One had long ginger hair and the other had black in a ponytail. Once the three men and one woman had exited the light, it disappeared leaving a smell of ozone.

"Okay team, XSE high command has sanctioned us to arrive in this time and capture the mutant terrorist known as Magneto. Once we have him we are to bring him back through the portal where he will go on trial," said the lean, black man with a goatee.

"K Bish. But how are the four of us supposed to capture one of the most powerful mutants of all time?" asked the blonde.

"Apparently Magneto is recovering from a battle in the X Men's base at." began the leader before being interrupted by the ginger man.

"The X Men? You mean we are in the same timeline as the legendary X Men?" asked the long haired ginger man.

"Yes Malcolm and we also have to be prepared to battle them because if they are anything like our records say they will defend Magnus till the end but we must capture him," answered the black man. "In answer to Shard's question before I was inturrupted by Malcolm. Magnus is injured but we also have the added bonus of the Magnus Protocols!"
