(S.H.I.E.L.D Hellicarrier)
Nick Fury looked out over Washington as the hellicarrier came into position over the capital, the trip had been uneventful but allowed them to prepare for the fights to come. He just hoped the carrier was up to repelling any full on attack made by the enemy as whilst the carrier had been repaired from the new york invasion it was not one hundred precent and may not hold up under the stress.
"Our forces are preparing to hook up with Iron Man and his forces sir" Marie Hill said from behind him "And begin search and capture missions" she added
"Very well Hill tall them they have a go" Fury responded looking over his shoulder at her "Just make sure they read up on who they will be fighting before they leave the carrier cause this aint going be like our previous fights this is a hole new ball game" he ordered with a glare from his one eye
"Understood sir" Hill said standing to attention "I think we have the advantage on those that oppose us but seen as we don't know where they are at the moment it does not do us much good" she mused
"Don't kid yourself Hill" Fury said with a shake of his head annoyed at her over confidence "We are going to be fighting some of the best fighters in the super hero community, Captain America and Logan served together during world war 2 and have been alive longer than anyone of us and are the best at what they do" he reminded her finally turning to face her "They have the power of both Hulk and She Hulk, the combined skills of people like Cable, Xavier, Banner and McCoy who are more than a match in that department for Stark and Richards and whoever else is with us" he added "Which reminds me get that list from Stark on who registered and who did not so we know who is on our side" he ordered
"As you wish sir" Hill said before walking off and Fury could tell she was convinced by what he had said which made him shake his head all the more frustrated with her
He turned back to the window and ran a hand through his hair and wondered just what the hell the outcome of this would be if there would truly be anything left to fight for when it was over.
(Headquaters of the Resistance)
Logan smirked as he grabbed a beer before joining the others at the table actually glad for once that Johnny Storm was a apart of the group as like himself he loved to party and had brought a lot of supplies such as food and beer much to his sisters annoyance he was sure.
He noted Jean shake her head as he sat next to her before smirking, she knew him too well he thought as he opened the bottle and took a deep gulp before waving for Cap to start
"Ok now that we ready to start lets go over what you guys said when you arrived" Steve Rogers began "According to you Doctor Banner was allowed to be beaten in his cell by someone in S.H.I.E.L.D once director Fury had left and this same someone is trying to put together some kind of unit consisting of people with very dark pasts and savage natures" he continued "If they refused to agree there were going to be forced somehow but you do not know how correct?" he asked
"That is true" Mystique responded "They did not say how we would be forced just that we would, when my son and his friends arrived to break Jean out I knew it was my only chance of getting out of that prison still me and I took it" she added "Once I was out I decided to help out and deal with some long over due family business as well" she stated noting the unsure look which now framed Rogue's face and it was clear to her she was still not going to trust her
"And Bruce was beaten Captain, even turning into the Hulk did not heal all the damage they did" Jennifer hissed annoyed by the way Rogers had spoken about what had been done to her cousin
"Easy I believe you" Steve said with a smile "I suspect it must have been someone in the prison or someone high up in S.H.I.E.L.D command" he explained "This is not a pleasant thought and will make our job much harder if they do everything possible to prevent us succeeding, it is possible they planned to use Miss Grey for this group as well" he mused out loud
Logan growled as soon as the words were out of his mouth and his claws shot out from his left hand at the mere thought of Jean been a puppet to someone else, he was about to stand to vent some anger when Jean grabbed his hand and made him look at her. He sighed when he noted her expression and he quickly retracted his claws and took another large gulp of his beer
"Sorry Cap" he said noting Jean had not released his hand causing him to feel more at ease and missed Xavier's amused expression as he picked up on a few his and Jean's stray thoughts
"No problem Logan I understand your reaction" Steve assured him "I'll put a team together to investiagte into this and hopefully get some evidence we can use to convince Fury of all this because without it he won't listen to a thing we say" he continued noting everyone agreed with him before he turned to Spiderman and Blackcat
"You present more of a problem Spiderman and I think you know why?" Steve said hoping he didin't take it the wrong way
"You mean the symbiote which is still bonded to me" Peter responded to which the rest nodded whilst Felicia rested her head on his shoulder "It's dorment has been since the end of the invasion, I don't know if it was because it used to much energy in that last fight or some reaction to something I did but it is" he explained "I can still access the back suit but I am in complete control of it and there is no secondary mind like normal when the symbiote is bonded to me" he continued
"What happened in New York Spiderman?" Xavier asked as he steepled his fingers together and looked at the man "We would like to hear the full truth if you would from both of you" he added
Peter and Felicia shared a look between themselves before nodding and launching into the story making sure not to leave anything out as they knew they thoughts and emotions were been monitored by Xavier and Jean as they went. Peter ensured they truly understood what it was like having an alien symbiote bonded to you how it brings out all of your repressed emotions and releases any control you have on your actions, he explains that as time passes your hidden ambitions and desires come out no longer held back you are free.
Felicia also stuck to the truth as she told her own story and made sure they understood he driving force during the whole thing had been to finally break though Peter's control and get him to except her as more than a friend, she continued with her own tale of having a symbiote bond to her and how disturbing it was at first but as with Peter it soon got better and by the time she fought Peter near the end and he managed to remove the thing she was free of any control she had on her inner most desires.
"A very interesting but disturbing story" Gambit said with a shudder at the idea of having a symbiote bond to him or someone he cared for
"Yes Gambit it is a disturbing thing to know that once these things bond to a person it changes you so much that you become an almost completely different person" Xavier responded
"Not different Professor" Peter interupted "Changed yes but not into someone else more what you would be without control without fear of what your actions can do, free to express any desire you have ever had" he explained "Venom and Carnage are different as they have their own personalities maybe because of the joruney through space that brought them to earth but the symbiotes which spawned from them were almost blank slates and obeyed Venom and me once I fell under it's influence" he continued
"Are they telling the truth about what they said?" Steve asked the professor
"They are indeed Captain" Xavier said with a smile "There was no lie from either of them and we now have a much more complete understanding of how a symbiote affects a human being" he continued "I would like for Hank to run some tests to see if we need fear on the symbiote regaining control if it comes out of its dormencey if that is okay?" he inquired
"I wouldn't mind the answer to that myself" Peter said
"I will finish setting up my lab and come get you when I am ready" Beast said eager to get started "It is a good thing we brought some of our equipment with us when we left the mansion" he added before moving off
"Ok now that is settled I would like to go over our plans to win this as quickly as possible" Steve said as he stood "I'll covene the others in an hour in the mess hall please be there any input with be useful" he told them before walking off
"So what do we do now?" Kitty asked
"Look around and get to know our allies I think would be best Kitty" Xavier answered "Somehow I do not believe this will be over as quickly as any of us hope" he warned
"If the super villians and those who just want to take advantage of the situation like Magneto act they it will take a lot longer to get this finished" Mystique said as she stood "What we are facing is a truly destructive war" she stated before walking off followed by Kurt and a reluctant Rogue who decided to face her foster mother and find out what she truly wanted from her and Kurt
The others broke up as well heading in different directions bar Jean and Logan who remained at the table, Logan quickly finished his beer and then leaned back in his seat and just closed his eyes and tried to think of happier times. Jean watched Logan and after a brief surface scan smiled at what he was trying to do and decided to do the same as it would at least calm her nerves with what lay ahead.
(Castle Doom)
Victor Von Doom stood looking out of his window at Latveria as he pondered recent events, it was something he had never expected to happen and yet from everything he had heard and see it was happening. The whole super hero community was splitting into two factions and going to war to fight for and against new rules put forth by the ever oppressive government, laws which affected people like himself just as much as them but they did not have as much to loose because they were already villians.
Groups such as the X men and even his worst enemies the Fantastic Four had split up and joined different factions, this more than anything amused him to think of how Reed Richards the man he hated the most in this world dealt with having to fight his own friends and team mates. Now he wondered if he could use this hero civil war could be turned to his advantage and he turned and moved over to a computer to summon aid as he began putting a plan together, this was an opputunity he thought that would never come again.
"You summonded me Master?" a female voice came from behind him and he turned to face Lucia von Bardas
"Yes Lucia" he responded "I have decided to take advantage of this civil war which is brewing in the hero community but I will need help so I want you to recruit these people and have them meet me here in seven days" he ordered as he handed her a list of names
"It will be done Master" Lucia said bowed and then left to carry out her task
Von Doom laughed as he imagined the chaos that was about to descend on the world and if his plans came through them a great change was about to come with it with him at it's head.
(Underground Base)
Magneto turned the television off and shook his head amazed at how stupid the government truly was, these laws were exactly what he had been fighting to stop from ever coming into being but he had failed because of Charles Xavier's dream of a world united. He had not ill will towards his old friend but he did believe him crazy to believe the world could ever be united, well if anything this will wake Charles and those who followed him up to the real world.
He had already check the X mansion as soon as had heard about the new laws and he had found it empty which surprised him, when he received information from an informant that Cyclops and a bunch of X men had joined the government forces he had frowned until he had learned that Charles and most of his top followers had not been a part of it he had smiled as he realised Charles had decided to fight the new laws and the irony made him laugh.
He stood and walked into the base hub of his base wondering what he should do, he knew Wolverine had led an attack of a S.H.I.E.L.D prison to break out of Jean Grey which was no surprise. No what surprised him was them breaking Mystique out as well, it would seem this civil war was blurring the lines of what had once been right and wrong hero and villian a thought that made him smile. Still these laws were dangerous and needed to be removed, he decided he would have to help Charles and his allies in doing just that because if he did not and they lost the fight them all mutants would suffer at the hands of these laws in the end the government would see to that.
"Quicksilver I have a task for you" he stated as he came across his son "I want you to find out where the resistance to these new laws is and report to me" he added
"Why, are we going to attack them?" Pietro inquired wondering what his father had in mind now
"No Pietro we are not going to fight them to do so would be counter productive to our true goals" Magneto responded with a shake of his head "No we are going to ally with them and help remove these laws for the good of all mutants now and in the future before it is too late for any of us" he explained
Peitro was dubious of his plan but he could see the need and advantage of doing this and so nodded and quickly shot off in a burst of speed to locate the resistance base.
Magneto watched him go and noted his daughter Wanda and Avalance had been listening and whilst Wanda seemed to agree with his choice Avalance did not but that did not matter as he was in command of the Brotherhood and they all knew it. He turned and walked back to his room wondering what his old friend would say when he made his intentions clear, a smile came to his face at the shock which he decided would be there appeared.
(Headquaters of the Resistance)
Kurt and Rogue sat in front of their mother and listened as she told them a very long and complicated story of her life, trying to explain why she abadoned Kurt as a baby and why she had treated Rogue as she had in the later stages of them knowing each other. Kurt was disturbed by what she had to say about his true father and what may happen should he ever locate him, it made his shiver at the destruction he could help bring about even if he was a willing helper.
According to his mother his father Azazel can control him completely once he finds him but considering his own mutant powers that is not as easy as it seems, Mystique however is known to Azazel and can be tracked anywhere so she left him and stayed as far away from him as she could to protect him. As for Rogue she has no real excuse for her behavior except a deep belief in her cause in getting Mutants the same rights as any other human on the planet and that sometimes she gets carried away in a fevor of passion and makes mistakes.
Now she wishes to make up for her past mistakes and help heal as much as the damage as she can if they will let her, Kurt instantly agrees but Rogue asks for some time to think about it before walking off more troubled than ever about her foster mother.
"I hope she will except me" Mystique says watching sadly as Rogue vanished around a corner
"She will in time mother" Kurt responded confidently "What do we do about my father and his goals?" he asked
"One problem at a time Kurt, first we need to win this war and then we can plan for him finally finding you maybe your friends can help in this as well" Mystique responded hoping what she had said was true
