"Eyes up everyone, this is not going to be an easy mission" Wolverine said as the team landed in Ecuador

"It never is" Iceman said

"So you think we'll run into someone out here?" Shadowcat asked

"No doubt" Wolverine said "Some very old friends of mine"

"So what is the first move?" Nightcrawler asked

"We need to get inside" Wolverine said popping his claws

"Leave that to me" Shadowcat said running through a wall, soon she walked out the door

"Huh, didn't think you had that kind of power kid" Logan said


"So what are you hoping to find in here?" Psylocke asked

"Anything to show us where they took the others" Wolverine said

"This would go faster if we split up" Shadowcat said

"I Agree" Colossus said

"No, this was the main base before it was destroyed, it doesn't mean that they didn't come back and repair it and repurpose it" Wolverine said

"Into what?" Nightcrawler asked

"Data storage, a fallback point, barracks, hidden laboratory, could be anything really" Havok said

"Up ahead, I believe it to be a computer lab" Psylocke said

"Then let's check it out" Hacok said

"Wait" Wolverine said

"What is it?" Jubilee asked

"We've got company" Wolverine said unleashing his claws making them shine in the light "Elf you and Psylocke get to the lab. Everyone else with me" he growled running out of the room

"Come on" Havok said running out after Wolverine


"And here they come" a voice said as the X-men walked out into a large warehouse

"Who are they?" Rogue asked

"We're Unit X" the leader said

"And that means what exactly?" Rogue asked

"They work for Wideawake" Wolverine snarled

"Er, Correction Wolvie and I can't believe that you forgot some so critical" a red and black clad soldier said

"Wade Shut up" the Leader said

"Oh happily, but first we work for Weapon X not Wideawake; Colonel Styrker just lent us to them so we can brutally tenderise you and bring you back, though given your bones are all shiny, shiny for that Adamantium bath I'm guessing it will be a lot harder"

"Wade shut up before I gut you" a savage looking man said as he snarled at Wade

"Victor" Wolverine snarled

"Ah good to see you still recognise me Jimmy" Victor said

"That's Sabertooth, how do you know Sabertooth?" Gambit asked

"I can't remember" Wolverine said

"They really did a number on you" Wade said

"So you obviously know who we are, can the same be said of us?" Rogue asked

"We just told you we're Unit X! Wait where are the other two of you" Wade said


Psylocke was busy looking over the files on the computer she was at while Nightcrawler hung from a water pipe by his tail looking at paper copies

"Wideawake, Sidewinder, Unit X, Weapon Plus, Weapon X, Cerebro, Xavier Academy" Psylocke read out

"That is not a good list" Nightcrawler said

"Neither is the next one; M-DEX! That must be who they have captured and are currently testing on" Psylocke said

"So who is in it?" Nightcrawler asked as Psylocke opened the file and recoiled "Well?"

"J. Grey, S. Summers, H. McCoy, S. Cassidy, C Xavier, J. Keller, Forge, R. Sinclair, J. Proudstar, R. Darkholme, A. Jones, I. Rasputin and R. da Costa" Psylocke said as she read out random names that had been captured

"That is not good" Nightcrawler said

"No it isn't, but I think I've got a location for their base" Psylocke said

"And where is that? Nightcrawler said

"Hold on, I'll transfer it over to the X-Drive Havoc gave us to grab the intel" Psylocke said as she plugged the drive in and started to download the data onto it "Its going to take about five minutes or so" she said

"Okay, I'll stand watch" Nightcrawler said


"So how are we doing this bub?" Wolverine said

"Like you care?" Sabretooth said smirking evilly

"So besides Sabretooth we have me Deadpool, Mastodon, Maverick, Silver Fox, Bolt and Kestrel" Deadpool said

"Shut it Wade" Sabertooth said

"That some pretty tough folk" Gambit said drawing a card, "But I be sure they we can take them" he said
"You and what army?" Sabertooth asked

"Monseiur, we are the army" Gambit said bowing

"Get them" Sabertooth said as the two groups charged


Wolverine was met by Sabertooth who swiped at the X-Men's leader, who unleashed his claws and stabbed them into Sabertooth allowing him to be thrown into Bolt who was blasted back by Havok, straight into Cannonball while Magma and Jubilee held back Mastodon and Silver Fox.

"What do I do?" Shadowcat asked as she saw most of the X-Men were holding off Team X

"You die" Deadpool said swinging his swords through her, "Huh?" he said trying again before switching to his guns and started to open fire, until he ran dry of ammo

"Night Night" Shadowcat said pointing behind Deadpool

"Say what?" the merc said turning around to meet a massive steel plated fist

"Thanks big guy" Shadowcat said

"You are most welcome" Colossus said

'Guys the information is uploaded to a drive' Psylocke said via her telepathy 'not to mention it contains a lot'

"Good" Wolverine said stabbing Sabertooth in the throat before Iceman fired some ice shards into the wild mutant's back making him roar allowing Wolverine to stab him in the mouth

"MOVE OUT!" Wolverine shouted

"I don't think so Logan" Kestrel said holding a shotgun

"Out of my way bub" Wolverine said
"Sure thing" Kestrel said stepping to the side only to teleport away

"Aw shit!" Wolverine said before Sabertooth grabbed him and threw into a wall. Wade, deal with someone other than that girl, Silver Fox take the phaser, Kestrel find the other two. Anyone else just support us; but leave Wolverine to me" Sabertooth said

"Yes sir" they all said before Kestrel disappeared


"Wait" Psylocke said

"What is it?" Nightcrawler asked

"There is a file here with the name M. Eisenhardt" Psylocke said

"Eisenhardt, you don't think?" Nightcrawler asked looking at the file name "he's suppose to be a myth even outside of the mutant world"

"But why does Wideawake have a file on him?" Psylocke asked

"Any other names?" Nightcrawler asked

"Yeah two, N. Essex and S. Shaw" Psylocke said

"We should take those as well, maybe Logan knows about them" Nightcrawler said

"You're possibly right, but question is what is on those files" Psylocke wondered


"Hold still" Deadpool said

"No way partner" Cannonball said as he flew around the map. "Head's up

"To what?" Deadpool asked

"This!" Magam said covering the area around Deadpool in lava

"Well, what do you know, FLOOR IS LAVA!" he shouted jumping onto a metal box and pulled out an assault rifle and aimed at Magma, only for the shots to be locked by Colossus. Iceman saw this and took the opportunity to freeze the metal box supercooling it before the molten rock of Magma's lava reheated it making it groaned "What was that noise"

"Get off of the box WADE!" Bolt said trying to fry Jubilee who was using her powers to blind the electricity

"Why?" Deadpool said before the box broke "that's why" he said teleporting away and behind the two mutants he was facing

"Ah Monsuier, may I suggest the high iron diet" Gambit said grabbing a hand full of nuts and bolts charging them "Au revoir" he said throwing the charged metal forcing him back. He then turned to see Mastodon had pinned Rogue, Havok and Siryn

"What are we going to do?" Siryn asked

"Hey Si, I believe you could a song no?" Gambit asked throwing a hand of cards at the gunner

"Oh yeah" she said before unleashing a sonic scream at the Team X member keeping her pinned

"Where is Nightcrawler and Psylocke?" Havok asked unleashing a beam at Maverick who jumped out of the way, only for Nightcrawler and Psylocke to land on them

"We have to go now!" Psylocke said

"But how?" Havok asked

"REGROUP!" Wolverine shouted as he and the rest of his team regrouped together "Frosty, give us some cover!"

"You got it" Iceman said making a massive ice shield

"Now what?" Cannoball asked

"Okay, Kitty I want you to get to the X-Jet" Psylocke said touching her temples. "Now I've linked our minds, so I will be able to see what you see"

"Okay" Shadowcat said as she phased through the wall while Team X was trying to get through. Psylocke did some calm breathing, once she had done that she was able to focus on seeing what Shadowcat did, she then placed her hands on Nightcrawler's head.

"You ready?" she asked

"Yes" Nightcrawler said as everyone grabbed onto Nightcrawler before he teleported out just as Sabertooth and Deadpool broke through the ice

"where did they go?" Deadpool asked making Sabertooth growl and swat the mercenary on the head

"GO!" he roared making the group rush outside


"I can't believe that worked" Iceman said

"Get on board" Wolverine shouted as Team X broke out of the base, making the X-Men rush on board. Magma used her mutation to create a hazard to prevent Team X from getting to them as the Jet took off.

"Activating cloak" Shadowcat said from the pilot's seat next to Wolverine.


"What did they take?" Sabertooth asked

"Nearly everything" Mastodon said "They left behind some design files, Trask's personal journal"

"But they got everything else including the M-Dex right?" Sabertooth asked

"Yeah they did" Kestrel said

"And why did you allow them to escape?" Silver Fox asked

"Girl put me to sleep" Kestrel said

"That's weird, I didn't think she had those powers, in fact I didn't see any of those guys in the main archive. How the heck did we miss them?" Deadpool asked

"Good question" Sabertooth said


Once the X-Men got back to base Psylocke, Shadowcat and Havok were uploading the data that was recovered to the own system

"Think any of this can help us find the others?" Havok asked

"There was a list of names on their servers which listed off a few of our fellow Xavier students here" Psylocke said

"Such as?" Havok asked

"Jean Grey, Cyclops, Beast, Banshee, the Professor, Hellion, Forge, Wolfsbane, Warpath, Mystique, Firestar, Magick and Sunspot" Psylocke said

"So where are they located?" Havok asked

"I don't know I only got part of that location data, however I did find a facility" Psylocke said

"where?" Havok asked

"In the southwest of the united states" Psylocke said "My guess is eighth Arizona or New Mexico; most likely Arizona"

"Then that is where we're going next" Havok said


G'day Guys Grizz here and sorry about taking so long with this chapter, but yeah this reveals who the voice belonged to: members of Team X which was the unit that Wolverine was apart of before he left to join Xavier's after his mind wupe, but also I name dropped some classic X-Men villains via data file names so that will be brought up in the future as teh villainous faction

And now to announce that I'm turning this into a shard universe. Which I am dubbing the Neo-Marvel Universe for the only reason of sounding cool, I have two additions projects at this planned and you will see the second one in July so not that long away just a couple of weeks and I hope you enjoy that

So until then I'll catch you on the flipside
