I don't own Ranma 1/2, Inuyasha, KHR, HP, Sherlock, or any Marvel Characters!

Quick Note: On my way home, an idea for this chapter kept plaguing me. However, by the time I reached home, it was firmly going to become a part of this chapter, so there may be just a bit of humor at the beginning of this chapter.

D C JoKeR H S: Thanks for the reply. I'm not sure if Captain Britain will be in this, just yet, but if we get to Infinity Wars, he may be making an appearance, and Star Lord too. I love the Guardians of the Galaxy! ;)


2AM Phone Call


Mycroft rarely slept, so when he did get some time to rest, he took it. Unfortunately, that was when his new cell rang and woke him up, "It had better be important."

"Oh, I don't know. I rather think that you hacking into my files is rather important. Wouldn't you, Mr. Holmes?" a man's voice drawled on the other end of the phone.

"And I think you deserved it, Nicky. Especially after entering my country illegally and not informing me of your presence. Now, what really prompted this two in the morning wake up call?" Mycroft snorted arrogantly.

"Wait, you were asleep?! That's rich. You just hacked my files less than two minutes ago!"

"Nicky, I was asleep and I did not hack your-" Mycroft's eye twitched as someone texted him. "Actually, it looks like an acquaintance did, and decided to frame me for taking the last strawberry tart."

"Strawberry tart? Really Holmes?" Nicky snorted in disbelief.

"This acquaintance is rather prickly and much more vindictive than you are, Nicky. Don't worry, they won't leak the information to the general public. However, maybe you should stop by the new Hibari Hotel in New York. I hear they have excellent tarts," Mycroft hung up the phone. "Bloody Fury. Now I'll never be able to get back to sleep at a decent hour."


On the other end of the call, Fury blinked at his phone in surprise, "Hibari Hotel? New York doesn't have a Hibari Hotel... HILL!"

"Yes sir?" Agent Maria Hill answered immediately from the next room.

"Is there a Hibari Hotel in New York?" Nick Fury asked curiously.

"Sir, it appears that a new Hibari Hotel will be taking over one of the hotels that suffered during the Chitauri Attack. It appears that the purchase was made an hour ago.

"Lovely, so our hacker works with a new Hotel chain. Maria, aren't we staying in the London Hibari Hotel?" Nick Fury twitched as he recognized the stationary next to his bedside.

"Yes sir."

"Wonderful. Find out who the owners are and what the hell they want with my classified information!"

"The owners are two blood related siblings, Fon and Mai Hibari, and their friend, Nana Yamamoto-Black. It appears that they may have some former ties to the Triads and the Italian Mafia," Maria Hill frowned.

"And why on Earth would they need a dead man's classified files?" Nick Fury demanded.

"I'm sorry sir, but it appears that they are all in Washington, D.C. and will be heading to New York, today. Did you check to see which files were hacked?" Maria inquired.

"Maria, I'm a spy, not Geek Squad."

"Yes sir. It appears that they accessed both Agent Carter's files, along with Howard Stark's encrypted files regarding the S.S.R. and Captain America," Maria stated flatly. "Also, it appears that the same hacker purposely left a trail of breadcrumbs that lead to Hank Pym's private files, the ones we can't access."

"Damn it! I want that hacker and I want them working for us!" Fury roared angrily.

"Should I notify Coulson?"

"No. He's running dark like we are," Fury sighed tiredly. "Keep an eye out for this hacker. I want them on our side."

"Will do, sir."


Viper smirked as Colonello brought him a strawberry crepe, if one had to have a weakness, it was best to say it was fruit. That and if Mycroft knew what was good for him, he'd keep silent on who exactly hacked the former SHIELD Agent's files. He was probably cursing his name at being awakened so early, "Mou, any more?"

"Kora, sorry Viper. Mai said that since you gave Nana the idea, she was cutting you off at two. Also, she spoke to Lal. Apparently one of the people you were investigating is staying at the Hibari in London. Did you want her to have a word with the man?"

"Mou, we shall see," Viper smirked. "Now, are you ready for the long drive ahead of us?"

"We're really going to New York after everything Nana said, Kora?" Colonello frowned.

"We are. You know that she would never break a promise. Besides, I have a contact to make in New York, they may need our services some day..."

"Kora, who?"

"Ever heard of Hank Pym?" Viper smirked.


Meanwhile, in New York...

"Dad, there's an email that just appeared in your mailbox. I think you got hacked," the daughter of Hank Pym frowned.

"It wasn't Scott, was it Hope?" Hank asked his daughter.

"No, it appears that their name is Viper. Dad, this looks like a scam."

"When do they want this meeting to happen?" Hope asked curiously, "Should we have Scott go with you?"

"That won't be needed. I'll see them this afternoon," Hank Pym stated. "Odd that they asked to meet me, after hacking me, and not putting anything or taking any information. Almost like they just wanted a look..."


It had taken them a few hours, but Nana and the rest of the crew had finally made it to New York. So, since Viper knew that he would be taking Nabiki with him, he snagged a Taxi and they were off towards their appointment with Hank and Hope Pym.

Luckily, Viper had already explained to Nana and Colonello what he was planning to do while they took the Grangers to see Peggy Carter. Mai had agreed to take the rest of the children, except Hermione, to the Statue of Liberty, "Mai, there's another stop that I'll have to make later on, after Colonello and I take the Grangers to see Ms. Carter. We will be late returning..."

"Where are you stopping?" Tsuyoshi frowned.

"Remember that place I mentioned to you a while ago? I thought I'd see if we could stop by and tour it or talk to the owner," Nana smiled as she got into one of the limos with the Grangers and Colonello.

"Fine, but keep Colonello close," Tsuyoshi frowned.

"Yes, dear," Nana smiled at her husband with a small spark of Flame in her eye, as he shut the door for her.

"So, where are we headed to after we see Great Aunt Peggy?" Hermione asked curiously.

"Ever heard of the Xavier Academy?" Nana asked.

"Of course. That's where Dr. McCoy teaches and lectures when he isn't at a conference," Hermione stated factually, before gaping at Nana. "We're going to meet Dr. McCoy?!"

"Maybe," Nana shrugged. "I need to have a few words with the headmaster, if he's available."


Nana bit her lip when the Grangers entered the room of Margaret *Peggy* Carter. She knew that it was a bit strange to have this much security outside an ailing woman's room, but after reading her file, Nana understood. Both she and Colonello stood guard while the Grangers visited with the dying woman, for that's exactly what Peggy Carter was, a dying woman. Nana couldn't feel the woman's Flames, if she'd ever had any to begin with. There was no way she could save her, like she did Daniella. It broke her heart a bit. That woman in there was one of the best of the best, and she was slowly wasting away to nothing.

"Who are your friends, Maggie?" Peggy asked softly as she nodded to the door.

"That's Nana Yamamoto-Black, and Colonello. They helped us remember you, Auntie," Peggy Granger closed her eyes. "There was a man in England that made us forget all about you and Sharon. We didn't even focus on Hermione as much as we should have when she went to Hogwarts..."

"Dumbledore. It was Dumbledore, wasn't it?" Peggy Carter stated flatly.

"Yes," Nana replied softly. "Hermione's best friend is my cousin's child. That's how we met. Dumbledore had set him up as a scapegoat for the British Magical Community. Colonello and I are part of a different community, Agent Carter, but you have my utmost respect. I promise that we will protect your niece and her family to the best of our abilities."

"You remind me a bit of Steve... Where am I? Oh, Maggie dear, it's so good to see you again! And who is this charming young woman?" Peggy Carter had lost time again, and was re-introduced to Hermione, but she never did ask to be introduced to Nana or Colonello again, almost as if she knew they were to be trusted.

It was with heavy hearts that they made an appointment to see her again, in two days. It was a shame that Peggy Carter wouldn't make it to see that day, as she would die of natural causes.


Nana was nervous as they approached the gates to the school grounds. She'd asked the Grangers to remain in the limo, before she stepped out with Colonello, and rang the bell.

"Who is it?" a gruff voice growled.

"My name is Nana Yamamoto-Black. I was hoping to speak with Professor Xavier, if he has a moment. It's about a possible plan for the school. I'm afraid I wasn't sure how to make an appointment," Nana apologized.

"Hang on," the gruff voice snorted, before the gates opened. "You and your guests are free to walk to the school. Your driver stays with the car at the gates."

"Thank you, sir," Nana stated softly enough for him to catch it. "Colonello, get the Grangers, it appears we've been invited in."

"Kora, exactly how rich is this guy?" Colonello asked her as he opened the door for the Grangers. The elder Grangers declined, but not Hermione.

"Enough," Nana chuckled. "Now, we can't keep Professor Xavier waiting, can we?"

"We're going to meet Professor Charles Xavier?!" Hermione gasped with hero worship.

"Just be mindful of your thoughts, Hermione. Try not to think too loud," Nana chided her gently.

"Okay!" Hermione beamed as they all walked towards the main building. "It's beautiful! A bit like Hogwarts, actually..."

"Thank you for the compliment, my dear," a cultured British voice greeted them from a wheelchair at the door, along with a gruff bodyguard type man, that Colonello recognized from Mafia World's description of him.

"Kora! You're the Wolverine. It's nice to meet a fellow soldier," Colonello nodded to the gruff Canadian.

"Soldier? You must be mistaken, bub."

"No way, kora! I read your file when I worked for COMSUBIN, it was all about James Logan Howlett aka the Wolverine. You and your half-brother are a bit of a legend at COMSUBIN."

"Half brother?" Wolverine frowned.

"Yeah, Victor Creed," Colonello stated. "Still a legend, even if what he did to you was really nasty, kora."

"Colonello," Nana frowned. "I apologize for my friend's rudeness. He did not mean offence, Wolverine-san. I came to speak to the Professor regarding a back-up plan..."

"I see," Xavier frowned. "Please, do come inside. Logan, why don't you Miss Granger to Hank's laboratory?"

"Can I, Nana?!" Hermione pleaded hopefully.

"As long as you listen to Wolverine-san," Nana stated after looking at Logan.

"Come on, kid," Logan sighed as he led the kid to see Hank. "And the name is Logan, lady."

"Then you may call me Nana, Logan-san," Nana bowed her head politely to him as he sighed and took the kid to see Hank.

"Now, can you please tell me why you think that my students need a type of underground railroad?" Charles Xavier frowned curiously at Nana.

"A war is coming, and the Sokovian Accords are being ratified today. There will be a few countries that will be safe for mutants, Japan will always be one of them, Italy may be another, and my intuition has said Wakanda. We have a friend over there right now, and he's speaking with the Queen. I'm not sure how that will fare, but it's a start. I do not wish to engage in a war, but I will set up a path for those with powers to flee, especially the children," Nana stated calmly. "What do you say, Professor Xavier?"

"I agree with you, Mrs. Yamamoto-Black."

"Nana, please."

"Then please, call me Charles. Now, how would you suggest we go about setting this up? And would your two groups of allies be willing to aid us in our escape, if needed?"

"I think so, as it will effect them too," Nana informed the telepath.

"Kora, how are you two figuring this out so fast?" Colonello looked very confused.

"He's reading my mind, Colonello. He's the world's strongest telepath. I also let him read my mind, and see what I see," Nana stated.

"Oh. That explains a lot, thanks Nana!" Colonello looked a bit more relieved.

"Now, how do you suggest we start, Nana?" Charles asked curiously.
