Ino and the X-men
Disclaimer: I don't own Naruto or the X-men.
"(Japanese)" – formerly used to mean English, but moving out of Konoha means language change, hence now this means the opposite.
Chapter 2
"HOLD ON!" Beast called out as he tried to control the blackbird as it was going down.
"BUCKLE UP!" Logan roared to everyone.
They had been doing well on approach to the coast when they were attacked. The shots that connected destroyed the stealth unit and the blackbird was put into high altitude to avoid more. Jean was using her telekinesis to destroy a missile while Steve Roger, known as Captain America took over flying while Storm had abandoned her seat and summoned up a massive storm outside to attack the craft that were attacking them. A tornado ripped several of them to shreds, while lightening strikes took out more.
"JEAN!" Logan yelled looking at the radar.
"There are too many!" Jean Grey said as she managed to destroy many of the missiles with telekinesis forcing some of them into others, but it took only one to do its job and the blackbird was going down as its tail wing was destroyed.
Outside the ship if one was watching it would see the ship fighting to keep itself in the air, wind whipped around it like a cushion.
Those that were on the ground saw the ship as it came in hot and nearly hit the ground when it suddenly stopped.
In the Blackbird everyone that wasn't buckled in was tossed about. Logan cursed as he hit another seat and blinked.
"We're not dead?" Ino asked clutching her seat.
Anko was cursing as she'd used her body to shield Kurenai from injuring her arm further.
"Jean?" Logan asked.
"It wasn't me. Storm?" the red head asked as she got to her knees a hand pressed to her forehead to stem the bleeding from a cut she got when they were going down.
"It wasn't I." Storm said.
Logan blinked as he felt something and looked at Laura who nodded as the Blackbird was set down.
"Steve, lower the ramp." Logan ordered and headed to the back. "You okay Marko?"
"I see why you hate flying. If this is going to happen every time we go somewhere Shorty, I'm walking from now on."
Logan agreed and as the ramp cycled open he was down before it touched down and looked around. He took another step and froze.
"Crap." He muttered. "Polaris."
"I should think not Wolverine."
Logan groaned hearing the voice he had been hoping to avoid. "Magneto." He said through gritted teeth, "Just as bad." He said as he felt his body unable to move due to the Master of Magnetism's ability to grab the adamantium in his body and treat him like a puppet.
"We have much to talk about." Magneto said releasing his hold on the feral X-Man.

(Hidden Location)
William Stryker stood outside of the enclosed cell. "Fascinating." He said as the room was basically alive ceiling to floor with insects he'd never seen before.
"How many different breeds have our men collected?"
"So far thirty different species and we're going to gas the room again and take more samples. His body keeps creating more." A scientist said.
"And this is one of the mutants we captured in Konoha?" Stryker asked for verification.
"Yes sir. The other one we've had to keep sedated, she's a pyrokinetic and melted her cell down and three guards died, the spots she struck burnt out their nervous system and she burned through concrete."
Stryker shook his head. "And the tests on the corpses we collected from Konoha?"
"Show no evidence of the x-gene. Their chakra ability has me confused as its not something normal human's can do, but…"
Stryker nodded as he looked in the cell with the bug generator. "Gas the room, kill the bugs and experiment on them. Keep him sedated, I don't want no chances with any of them."
The scientist nodded. "And the others?"
Stryker looked at him. "Those with offensive powers keep sedated. The rest…well you have your test subjects, do as you will."
The scientist nodded as William Stryker walked away.

(Sinister's Lab)
Mr. Sinister stood before the tube that held his latest experiment. "Master?" a robot inquired.
"Have the test samples been completed?"
"Negative."
Sinister looked at the blond haired subject. "The boys DNA is extraordinary. He has the ability to teleport, he has Lebeau's ability to charge objects and his regeneration is beyond anything recorded before."
Sinister looked at the unconscious body, his pointed teeth actually forming a smile. "And with the chakra that those silly ninja use he's able to mass produce copies of himself. He's a treasure trove." He looked at the robots he made to work his lab as he didn't trust the infinites that Apocalypse had created to be his foot soldiers.
"And what Apocalypse has me do is a shame." He tapped the glass. "Shame, I'm sure I could have learned much from studying you boy. But Apocalypse is only interested in your main power."
He looked at a drone. "Prepare lab nine. I'll finish with the boy and present him to Apocalypse for final inspection."
"You could have been greater than you are going to be. It's a shame, but you will be Apocalypse's tool now."
Sinister spun away his cloak billowing behind him. In the tube hung Naruto Uzumaki Lebeau unaware of what was to be done to him in the name of Apocalypse.

(Destroyed New York)
"You mean Apocalypse and his forces destroyed Genosha?" Storm asked surprised as they had joined Magneto underground away from the crashed blackbird.
"Three of his Horsemen and an unlimited army of those Infinites took Genosha and I was betrayed by the council who thought that they could curry favor with him." Magneto snorted. "He had his ship fire upon the capital till there was nothing left standing."
"What of the mutants that lived there?" Jean asked.
"Concentration camps that are run by several mutants loyal to Apocalypse, or they are killed in the streets by his hunting squads."
Logan growled. "This just keeps getting better and better. Big lips must have been planning this the last several years for him to move like this."
Beast came back from the blackbird. "More bad news. Europe has closed it borders. I just got word from Kurt that Excalibur has been placed under house arrest by orders of the Queen."
"So we can't expect any help from that quarter." Ino said from where she was sitting with Rogue and Gambit. Naruto's adopted mother kept an arm around her.
Anko and Kurenai were sitting nearby. "It seems that your list of allies has dwindled." Kurenai said.
Jean looked at her. "What about hiring ninja? Surely Konoha…"
Anko shook her head. "Despite Inoichi being named Hokage, the council won't lift a finger to help us or Naruto."
"She's right Jeannie." Gambit said. "Konoha was not good for Naruto."
Rogue hugged Ino tighter. "Ah don't care what we have ta do. Ah jus' want him in my arms!"
Gambit hugged his wife who looked at him and the former thief vowed he would make a deal with the devil himself if it got his son back to them.
"I suggest we head to the Institute. We need to see what we do have left and what allies we can gather." Storm said.
Laura spoke up then. "See if we can get in touch with Spider-man and try and locate Wade."
"Deadpool?" Logan spat. "I understand the Spider, but why the merc?"
X-23 sighed. "He and Naruto are friends."
Logan shook his head. He and Deadpool never got along. He knew he would curb his desire to wipe the merc with a mouth out of existence if only for his help with getting Naruto back.
"Janet and I need to find the rest of the Avengers." Steve said standing. "So we'll start here and see if we can hook up with any resistance cells.
Logan nodded. "You have our signal."
The leader of the Avengers nodded. "Let us know if you need us."
Janet hugged Rogue then Ino. "Look after that blond menace when you find him. We'll talk when all of this is settled and take him shopping."
Ino nodded and they watched as the two Avengers vanished into the dusk and destroyed buildings.
Magneto stood. "I will go with you for now. At the very least I can counter my daughters powers when you meet her and the rest of the Horsemen." He said looking at both Logan and Laura.
"Thank you Erik." Jean said.
Magneto put on his helmet and using his power created an orb of metal around them and it flew away at high speeds at ground level, destroying anything in its path.
AN: Here's another bit of the story. It was sitting in my notebook so I added it to the stories being posted. Apocalypse and Stryker are both bastards. Wonder what they are both planning. Some people are leaving to make room for others. But they aren't permanently gone. This story is just starting after all. Still looking at fall release for the rest of the story, but I thought I'd be nice here and give y'all another look at it.
