I have a few made up characters in this part, and in this interpretation, SHIELD has not been disbanded and Iron Man has not been disgraced, etc. Sorry, the chapter is a little wordy and stuff, but I got a little action in the end, hope you enjoy, maybe offer some feedback in maybe a review?

Disclaimer: I do not own any characters or anything in this story

S.H.I.E.L.D HELICARRIER

ABOVE THE ATLANTIC

"Director Louis, how are the preparations for Operation Reclamation going?" General Hodge of the US Army asked the director of the world's ultimate spy agency and international peace keeping force. Frank Louis had been appointed to the position of Director a few days after the Mutant Detention Act had passed; the tough, former director of SHIELD Mutant Defense Department had made a name for himself for his development in mutant hunting technology and developing strategies in neutralizing mutants of many different abilities. His ability to see the mutants as a threat but his cool demeanor, and control meant that he would not be driven by emotions. He saw mutants as a threat but was not a proponent of massacring or genocide of mutants, he would not let emotions get in the way, he would carry out his orders to the fullest. He had been selected because he would carry out the orders and would not make any scandalous decisions or actions that could cost public support.

"We have deployed our Mobile Mutant Detection Radars in locations around the globe and we have a large number of mutants already under surveillance. Our own SHIELD agents working with other agencies across the world are prepared to move out and seize these mutants right at midnight, two days from now, when the law comes into effect," Director Louis explained to the assembled military officials and government members. As he spoke, the presentation being shown on the screen showed a map of the world, with red dots scattered around the whole planet showing the deployments of the radars. As he spoke of the agents, it showed images of SHIELD soldiers heavily armed and body armored as they load vehicles with more weapons and power dampening equipment.

"Have any mutants voluntarily surrendered to the authorities during this implementation period?" The Secretary of State asked the man who would be in charge of the whole global mutant roundup.

"So far only a couple of mutants have voluntarily surrendered to the authorities, and they are being held in our prototype camp located in Montana. Hopefully in four months we will have four or five new camps setup," The Director explained coolly and calmly as the presentation now showed the prototype camp which was a domed facility, the inmates were shown wearing power dampening collars, these collars repressed the mutant gene when put on the mutants.

"Has SHIELD been able to locate mutant groups like the Brotherhood or the X-Men, and what are your plans to dealing with these active teams of militant mutants?" The Italian commander of EU forces said in a tone that seemed to demand an answer.

"We have scattered members of almost all those groups and we should be able to detain them, hopefully once we get them we can interrogate them and find out more information about their secret locations and bases. However, the X-Men as most people in this room are well aware of have fled to the moon and are under the protection of the Inhumans, whose biography is written in the briefing sheet. Apparently they have received asylum over there and one of the main leaders of the X-Men is with the Inhuman delegation soon to be addressing the UN in New York," the Director spoke without showing any sign of being worried.

"This seems like a dangerous situation, the X-Men are the most powerful and influential mutant group active, how is SHIELD planning on detaining them," General Hodge said with concern.

"Currently the Inhumans are not a recognized international player, we have no relations with them, they are considered officially as an isolated rogue state. Hopefully the X-Men stay there, but if they do not, SHIELD will use all its resources and all the heroes of the Initiative to drive them out of that planet and into justice," Director Louis declared as he slammed his fists to emphasize his point.

"Yes, indeed some of these mutants may need to be detained by the registered super heroes, but it is a well known fact that these heroes have close relations with the X-Men and even the Inhumans, can you rely on their loyalty?" the Secretary of State asked.

"It will take a lot of convincing and intense negotiations to get the Initiative involved," Louis admitted, "But I am discussing with Tony Stark and believe me if the Initiative refuses to act it will be treated as treason and disobeying the orders of the president, they will than become fugitives, hunted down and tried to the fullest extent of the law," Director Louis emphasized his words strongly.

"Well Mr. Stark, I hope I have made it very clear of how important the super heroes you lead's loyalty will be in the next few weeks," Director Louis explained to Iron Man. After his briefing, Director Louis moved to the roof of the Helicarier and began a meeting with Tony Stark, who had arrived as Iron Man.

"Director Louis, I have to emphasize that relations are already strained due to the events of the Civil War, and if you do not want a great mutiny in which the heroes join the mutants, I would suggest you minimize the Initiative's involvement," Tony Stark explained coldly to the Director.

"Believe me Tony I am well aware of the situation, and I am hoping to do this without Initiative involvement at all, in fact that's the plan, but nothing ever goes as plan. I am sure the roundup will not go as smoothly as I would hope and there will be trouble that trouble might lead me to ask for Initiative support. I need you to make a list of registered heroes who will be more than willing to help us and I will try to just rely on those heroes and not on heroes with personal relations with the Inhumans or the X-Men like the Fantastic Four or many of the Avengers, even yourself," Director Louis explained.

"Personally it is my opinion and that of most of the heroes that this detention act is inhumane, wrong, and takes mutant-human relations back twenty years," Iron Man said coldly.

"You do not seem to realize, we aren't working to fix mutant-human relations, we are working to make sure there is no need to worry about such things," Director Louis declared and with that he walked away, leaving an angry Iron Man behind.

GNN BROADCAST

"Good evening, tomorrow night, at midnight, the new Mutant Detention Act will go into effect, authorities say that an operation involving millions of personal from around the world will be preparing to quickly apprehend the mutants and keep them detained. The hope is that over 75% of the planet's mutants should be detained in the first phase of the operation, with the remaining 25% being captured in phase two of the grand operation that will involve more specific and coordinated missions to detain the earth's most powerful mutants. However, the operation maybe suffering a serious blow as our own Grant Beckham reports live from the UN today where the Inhuman delegation has caused quite an uproar," The anchorwomen announced the news with a good amount of enthusiasm.

"Thank you Trisha, the delegation from the Inhuman nation of Attilan arrived this morning and in a brief opening statement asked to become a recognized international nation and asked for membership in the UN. Immediately the US representative and fellow European members began declaring this made no sense as they had no recognition on this planet and were not even on this planet. One of the Inhuman delegates responded by giving a speech explaining how Inhumans had been living on earth for thousands of years and how the moon is connected with the earth. The Secretary General was about to announce the delegates to prepare to vote, and it seemed the Inhuman delegation would lose the vote, but then one of the Inhuman's delegates, the X-Man known as Beast spoke.

The camera than shifted to Hank McCoy addressing the assembly,"Before you all vote to reject the request of this legitimate nation let me ask you this, most of the African, Asian, and South American countries present here only one hundred years ago did not exist. They had to struggle through years of fighting an oppressive system that would not recognize them as humans or as representatives of their own people. Will you now reject and suppress this small nation of one of the world's oldest civilization the right to voice their own views and opinions on the global level?" After he said that loud voices were heard as the delegates began talking amongst themselves.

The camera returned back to the reporter standing outside the building, "This statement inspired most of the world's nations to defy the stance of the former colonial powers and at two thirteen this afternoon, the nation of Attilan was accepted as a member of the international community, many nations in the third world have all officially recognized the country but the United States and its allies have so far refused to. The most notable champion of Attilan at the moment happens to be American rival Venezuela, whose embassy is hosting a celebration dinner for the Inhuman delegation," the reporter continued.

"Now, what does this mean for the Mutant Detention Act, as clearly it will be an issue because the delegation consisted a member of the X-Men," the anchorwoman asked.

"Well Trish, from what we understand the X-Men have received asylum from the Inhuman royal family, and now that Attilan is a legal, legitimate member of the UN, SHIELD and the US has no rights to demand they be handed over, as no extradition treaty exists between SHIELD and Attilan or the US and Attilan," the reporter answered.

"What about the Mutant Detention Act? Virtually all members of the organization passed the resolution and even passed local legislation complying with the Act and giving SHIELD the right to detain mutants in their homeland. What is Attilan's stance on the issue?"

"Attilan has announced it will give its official stance tomorrow to the assembly, but no member state is required to pass the law and can choose to not enact it or give SHIELD permission to enter its territory, and Attilan did say it has chosen to not let SHIELD on its territory or accept the Act,"

MIDNIGHT

MUTANT REGISTRATION ACT IN EFFECT

NEW YORK CITY

"Alright, Alpha team in position?" the SHIELD field commander said from his mobile command post outside the apartment where a mutant identified with spike powers was present.

"Present," the squad leader whispered he lifted his hand so the men could see.

"Alright boys, you know the orders no casualties, do not use hostile fire unless given permission, go get the bastard," the commander said the last part softly.

With that the Alpha leader from the front and the Beta leader from the back lowered his hand and the men broke through the doors and began searching the building. They had scanners on that identified heat signatures and also identified if the person had the mutant gene. They began moving story by story of the building, moving nice and slow, if civilians came out they would wave them into their rooms and keep up. On the sixth floor they finally got a match of a mutant in the third room in the main hallway.

Three men got to the door in position to storm in, the leader gave a nod and down went the door; they raced down the hall to the unsuspecting, sleeping mutant teenager. The team of three behind the main assault team rushed in behind and went to the parents room, keeping them out of the equation.

"Hands up! You are under arrest for violation of the Mutant Deportation Act, surrender now!" the lead man said as the three assault troops entered the boy's room, aiming their rifles at him, they had turned on the flashlights on the guns to disorient the boy when he woke.

Startled, the young mutant reacted by raising his hands, six spikes went flying out, directly hitting one of the troops.

"Damn it! Mutant s-" the other trooper was about to make a derogatory comment but he knew if he said anything or mistreated any prisoners he would be court-martialed, it was the Director's direct order.

"Command, we have a man down, permission to neutralize subject with sleeper darts," the lead assault man relayed to the command car.

"Permission granted," the commander said, he heard the gunshots through the radio before it was cut off.

Five minutes later, a call came in from Director Louis, "Commander, how was your raid," came the voice in a cold tone, he only accepted excellence.

"Sir, fugitive has been apprehended, nonlethal fire had to be used," the commander replied briskly.

"Any casualties?" the Director responded quickly.

"Yes, one trooper was hit by spikes, however he will be fine, our post confirms vitals are fine, the suite took most of the force, he's just unconscious from the force of the attack," the commander reported.

"Acceptable, good work, for a first day operations are going very smoothly, carry on," the Director concluded before signing out.

Ok, the intro chapter SHIELD is done, I did make up some characters and stuff, but its ok, my fanfiction right? Next chapter will be the beginning of the Detentions and focus on the Inhumans and the X-Men and Wolverines rebel X-Men, the war begins.
