This is it, the last chapter before Secret War. I'm going to try to release both parts of Secret War next week with Part 1 in Saiyan of Marvel and Part 2, Lelouch of the Atom. Look forward for the next chapter of Saiyan of Marvel.
Several Minutes Earlier, X-Mansion
Emma Frost rushes towards Cerebra as soon as Beast told about Lelouch's transmitter going off. Putting on the helmet and turning on Cerebra, Emma focuses on San Diego. She found six mutant signatures, Lelouch's, Damian's, Gavin's, and three others. She judge, base on the positions they are in, that the most powerful signature, is their enemy. She try to take a peek into the enemy's mind, using Cerebra to enchant her powers, but she couldn't. She then enters Damian's mind to see what going on, and the results weren't pretty. So far, Aizen is crushing Lelouch.
"No.", thought Emma, as Cyclops came in.
"Emma! What the situation!?", asks Cyclops, completely worried.
"A powerful mutant is engaging Lelouch and the two other students. They had two other allies, but so far, the mutant is dominating.", explains Emma before she felt Gambit and Nightcrawler arriving, "Remy and Kurt had just arrived."
"Tell Beast to get the extra Blackbird ready and contact the Professor, if something happens.", orders Cyclops as he rushes to get everybody ready.
Emma does as Cyclops orders. First she contacts Beast, and then, she contacts the Xavier.
Genosha
Xavier receives the message from Emma, as he then looks at Magneto.
"I'm sorry Eric.", apologizes Xavier, "But it seems that something urgent has taken place."
"Is something wrong?",, asks Magneto.
Xavier closes his eyes before answering, "It seems during a recruitment mission, Lelouch and two other students seems to have engage with another mutant.", answers Xavier.
"For what reason?", asks Magneto, wanting to know why are they fighting their own kind.
"I do not know the reason, but this mutant is powerful."
As Xavier calls for a jet from the mutant, Callisto. Magneto waits until Xavier has entered the jet and left the island. Magneto then makes his move.
"If this Lelouch is engaging with another mutant, then the least I should do is know why.", thought Magneto as he then felt, via is magnetism, a change in the magnetic field in the Earth.
It returns to normal after a second. But Magneto manage to pin point where it came from. Magneto then did something, he been trying to do for a while, but felt it the perfect opportunity to do it. Magneto is the master of magnetism, but he also a very smart man with knowledge of many scientific things. Most of them helped learn more about his powers.
It took sometime, but Magneto manages to do something incredible. He been practicing, but now, he putting is to the test. Magneto creates a pocket wormhole. Putting on his helmet, to make sure Xavier or Emma doesn't know that he there, Magneto teleports to San Diego.
Now
Aizen looks up at Magneto, who looks at the damage done by him. He sees the unconscious bodies of Nightcrawler, Gambit, Lelouch, Damian, Gavin, Scarlet, and Haruna as he then turn to Aizen.
"What happened here?", orders Magneto.
"I thought you were dead.", says Aizen as he prepares to fight.
"I ask you a question.", says Magneto, glaring at Aizen.
"Nothing happened here.", says Aizen, "I just came here to get back someone who I need.."
As Aizen walks to Haruna, Magneto lands in front of him.
"Here is another question boy.", says Magneto, glaring at Aizen, "Do I have to assume that what happened is your fault or are you going to defend yourself?"
"Weren't you an enemy of X-Men?", wonders Aizen, who glaring at Magneto.
"I'm an enemy on those who threaten mutantkind and those who get in the way of my dream for mutants to have a place for themselves. Even if their other mutants themselves.", answers Magneto, remembering his fights with the X-Men, "Now, this is your last chance to answer, what is it that you want? And answer honestly."
Aizen looks at Magneto. He looks like he was about to say something, but stops. He than glares deadly at Magneto. Magneto than suddenly is lifted up to the sir and crash into the ground. Dirt and dust covers the area the Magneto landed on.
"Hm, how about this as an answer.:", smirks Aizen as he he turn around.
"I see."
Aizen eyes widen as he turns to see Magneto, with a magnetic force-field around him which broke the fall from Aizen's attack. Magneto than glares deadly at Aizen in face of his answer.
"So that your answer."
Aizen picks up a large chuck of the ground and throws it at Magneto, which didn't even touch him as the magnetic force-field protected Magneto. Magneto, in responses, fires an electric bolt at Aizen, which Aizen generates his own force-field. Magneto than gathers metal objects from nearby farms and abandoned cars, which were caught previously in Aizen's giant repulsion attack. Magneto controls them with one hand and does something else with his other. As the metal objects start to gather, Aizen felt something wrong with his body.
"What going on!?", thought Aizen as he felt slower and sluggish, "Did a wasted too much stamina."
What Aizen didn't realize, was that Magneto is affecting metallic particles in his body, affecting his motor-skills. Aizen tries to hold his gravity force-field, but due to his decease concentration, the force-field is weakened. Magneto than split some of the large metal into smaller pieces. Using the remaining large pieces, he launches them at Aizen. Aizen manages to defend himself, but suddenly, Magneto combines the small pieces of metal into a giant fist. Aizen eyes widen as try to strengthen the force-field, but Magneto went ahead and attack Aizen before he has a chance to. The metal fist shatters Aizen's force-field, but Aizen manages to decreases the speed the metal fist is going. Aizen is send flying as the metal fist hits him directly. Magneto flew to where Aizen is lying down. Magneto's eyes widen as Aizen starts to get up, even after getting punch by a giant fist made of metal.
"Even after getting numerous injuries from the X-Men, he not only manage to slow down my attack, but is still getting up after receiving it.", thought Magneto as he impressed by Aizen, "If only he cared more about his mutant brethren."
Aizen finally gets up, bleeding all over his body as the injures from his previous battle takes it toll. Even after all that, Aizen refuses to lie on the ground.
"I'm honestly impressed.", says Magneto, "You really are interesting."
"I-I...I think... you be more impress by this.", Aizen try to say as he creates a gravity sphere in his hand.
Aizen throws it at Magneto, but before Magneto try to defect it, it goes above Magneto as it heads to the sky.
"What was that?", wonders Magneto as Aizen concentrates all his power on the sphere.
Suddenly, Magneto felt something was sucking him above the sky. Chunks of the ground start to lift to the air as Magneto sees the gravity sphere that Aizen launches earlier, turning into a small black hole. Magneto is surprise as even after all he went through, Aizen still doing incredible things. Magneto try to attack Aizen, but Aizen interrupts him.
"Even if you knock me out or kill me, the black hole will still keep going, and the X-Men are still near here.", Aizen smirks as Magneto turns to the black hole.
"I have no choice.", thought Magneto as he fly to the small black hole, "He injured, so he won't get to far even if he fly away."
Magneto concentrates on the black hole by using the electromagnetic particles around it. He then starts to neglects the amount of gravity the black hole is using to pull everything into it. The black hole disappears as Magneto effortlessly destroy Aizen's small black hole. While the black hole wasn't at its full potential, Magneto did destroy a black hole. Magneto turns to see Aizen flying away. He went after Aizen as he starts to catch up. Launching an electric bolt at Aizen, the attack hits as Aizen is electrocuted.
"Well, now it over-"
Magneto watches as Aizen disappears right in front of his eyes. Like a pile of ashes being blow away by the wind, Aizen head goes away first as the rest of his body just disappears.
"What!?"
Magneto checks around to see if anything is near him. He was on guard as this might be one of Aizen's tricks. He try to think about the number of ways Aizen could just disappears.
"Is this my mind playing tricks on me?", thought Magneto as not even Charles Xavier's telepathic attacks can go through Magneto's helmet. Than a thought came to him, the X-Men. Magneto than fly to where the X-Men are at, but senses various metal coming to them. Magneto rushes there and from a distances, sees the SHIELD logo on some of them. They were just armored trucks and medical vans.
"SHIELD, huh.", though Magneto as than searches for Aizen far from the SHIELD. He start to look for Aizen from afar as he knew, that in the state Aizen is in right now, he can't take on SHIELD. After a few minutes, Magneto quits.
"Any member of SHIELD would think twice before attacking X-Men.", says Magneto, believing that SHIELD won't harm the mutants, "If they do, they will face the wrath of the X-Men and that something most would avoid."
Magneto than goes to search for a place to hide, so he can prepare a wormhole to get him back to Genosha. When he first got here, he was hoping to talk to Lelouch, but since this mutant, who appears to be uninterested in the lives of other mutants knocks him out and with the invention of SHIELD, Magneto just has to wait until another chance can come. As long as Magneto is believed to be dead by the world, Magneto just have to wait until Lelouch comes to the shadows.
Meanwhile, a half a mile away from SHIELD, the woman who faced Lelouch and Gavin, Karasu, appears from the ground, holding Aizen and another man. They appear next to a car, which they own.
"That was close.", says Karasu, "If Aizen-sama hasn't distracted Magneto with the black hole and than you using your illusions spells to drive Magneto away, it would have been over."
"Never mind that!", yells the man known as Mukuro, "Get in the car, while I tend to Aizen-sama's wounds."
Mukuro is tall Japanese man. He has brown long hair, tied to a ponytail and brown eyes. He places Aizen to the backseat and starts to heal Aizen, using healing spells. Unlike Karasu and Aizen, Mukuro has no mutant powers, but is a spell-caster. He no Doctor Strange, but he pretty good at his own right. Karasu drives away from the outskirts of San Diego as she heads to the city, where Mukuro calls on his cellphone for their subordinates to prepare a proper medical attention..
About ½ an Hour Later
Cyclops, Emma, Beast, and Wolverine arrives along with Xavier, who they met up awhile ago. They arrive to the scene of Aizen's attack and sees the ¼ mile of destruction cause by Aizen. They land near a hospital tents places by SHIELD. There was several tents, full of civilians caught in Aizen's attack. Wolverine found the scent of the others, which was place in the back. Entering the tent, they see Gambit, Nightcrawler, and Gavin are the only ones up.
"Kurt. Remy.", says Cyclops as he sees Lelouch, Gavin, Haruna, and the mysterious boy still unconscious, "How are they?"
"They are fine Scott." says Nightcrawler, "They are just asleep."
"That good. What happened?"
"While we searching for that boy over there, Lelouch signaled his transmitter.", explains Nightcrawler, "We found the students, Lelouch, that young woman, and the boy all on the ground. When we engage this guy with black long hair and purple eyes, we manage to put him to a corner, but we didn't expect for him to be that powerful."
Cyclops, Nightcrawler, and Gambit explains the situation that happened and what going on. So far, SHIELD has only made them sign some papers so they can seek medical attention. Gambit read all of the papers and there seem to be no problems. Cyclops than turn to Gavin, who just sit in his bed listening.
"Gavin Underwood.", said Cyclops with a serious tone, "Why did you go into the Blackbird?"
Gavin just looks down on the ground with guilt. Because of him, Damian strain his body by lifting the Blackbird. He drag Damian to the Blackbird and now he completely unconscious. Gavin knew, that it was his fault that Damian was injured.
"I wanted see that jet. I even drag Damian with me so he can use his powers to get through the security system that Mr. McCoy installed.", admits Gavin.
"Well that explains a lot.", says Beast.
"Look. I'm the one who got Damian into the Blackbird okay.", says Gavin with a serious face, "If there is one thing that going to happen is that Damian won't get punished. It only going to be me."
Cyclops though about it for a second, then answers, "We will talk about your punishment when we get back to the mansion. Until then, just get some rest."
"Okay.", says Gavin as he lays down on the bed.
Gavin felt really low. Because of his recklessness, he ended up dragging Damian into the Blackbird, which ends up taking him here. But there one more thing that making Gavin feel really low.
"I- I was useless.", thought Gavin as he though of the things he really did, "Damian was the one who lifted the Blackbird, which took everything he has. Lelouch and the other two were fighting that guy, getting hurt in the process. But me, I was useless. All I did was get a free shot along with Damian, and my last attack was deflected."
Gavin than looks at his hands and clutches them.
"All I can do is use my hands and fire beams. Their not even continuous. I have to do more!"
Gavin makes a determined look on his face as decides on something.
"I'll become an X-Men! I get stronger and won't get in the way. I will be of use!"
Gavin head turn to the entrance of the tent as another person came in. Gavin seen him on TV, but never in person. The director of SHIELD, Nick Fury.
"Summers, Frost, and Xavier.", Fury addresses the three, "I believe there is a lot of thing we should talk about."
"I believe we do Fury.", says Cyclops as Fury than moves besides Lelouch's bed, "The first thing is this guy right here."
"What of him Fury?", says Frost, who not liking where this is going.
"When we were giving hi medical attention, we check every part of his body to see if anything was wrong with him, including his eye.", explains Fury, "And on top of that, he was talking in his sleep during the X-Rays. There was three things he kept repeating. A girl named Nunnally, this thing called Geass, and Zero."
"He has mysterious past.", says Cyclops.
"That my guess, that why I have some of the telepaths in SHIELD's payroll to take a peek in his mind to see if those three were relating to this incident. What we found is really interesting."
"You what?" Xavier says.
"You have no right Fury.", sternly says Cyclops.
"Don't worry. We don't have the right to judge him and call him a criminal. That his own world judgment.", says Fury, "But until the day he leaves the X-Men, he under your care."
"Is that really all, Fury?", questions Wolverine as he suspects that Fury want something else.
"No, after he wakes up and you all have your share of talking, I want to talk to him alone.", says Fury, "And the only people allowed to here out conversation is us only."
"And what are the consequences for refusing?", demands Cyclops.
"Nothing, I just want to talk to him.", explains Fury, "It his decision in the end if he wants to talk to me."
After a few seconds of thinking, Cyclops reaches an answer, "It is Lelouch's decision in the end."
Fury leaves the tent as he receives a call. After a few minutes, Lelouch finally wakes up. It helped that Emma Frost and Charles Xavier were helping the four (Lelouch, Damian, Haruna, and the boy) regain consciousness
"Where am I?', asks Lelouch as he sees himself in bandages, "What happened?"
"I'll explain what I have so far.", says Cyclops as starts explaining.
"And now here we are.", said Cyclops, finishing explaining what happened.
"I see.", said Lelouch as he remembers some of the things that took place, "Then what happened to the man, Aizen?"
"SHIELD doesn't know. So far, there is no clue on what happened to this Aizen.", explains Cyclops.
"I see.", said Lelouch as he remembers what Aizen said about seeing the Geass symbol before, "That right. That man-"
"Something that matter Lelouch?", asks Xavier as Lelouch turns to him.
"I'll explain later."
Suddenly, Nick Fury came in the tent and sees Lelouch.
"Lelouch Lamperouge.", says Fury.
"The others told me you know Fury.", said Lelouch looking at Fury, "Hm, so what is it that your after?"
"Calm down, I just want to talk about something that might interest you or the result might interest you."
Lelouch raises his eyebrows as Fury is wearing a serious face.
"What result might interest me?", questions Lelouch.
"If we go to another tent, I'll explain everything.", says Fury, "Can you still walk?"
Lelouch gets his upper body up, turn his body, and place his feet on the floor. He felt a little wobbly, but he starts to stand up.
"No problems.", assures Lelouch.
As Lelouch and Fury leaves the medical tent and heads to the another tent, Haruna and Damian wakes up.
"My head.", complains Damian as he felt his entire body in pain, "Ow! My body!"
"This place?", wonders Haruna as she turns around the room, "You guys are-!"
"We are the X-Men.", said Cyclops.
"X-Men, huh.", said Haruna as she turn to Damian, "Hey I remember you."
"Umm, yeah.", said Damian as little nervous, "We met in Seattle. I'm Damian by the way."
"Damian. I'm Haruna.", said Haruna as she than remembers Aizen, "Aizen-!"
"Calm down.", said Xavier, "He not here. He disappeared after the battle."
"I see.", said Haruna as she try to leave the bed, but couldn't because of her injuries.
"Your still injured.", said Beast, "It will take a couple of days for you injures to be healed."
"What?", questions Haruna as she looks down on the ground, "So what going to happen to me now?"
"That depends.", said Cyclops, "Do you have anybody for you to contact?"
"No.", simply said Haruna.
"Family?"
"My family is dead"
"I'm sorry.", said Cyclops.
"Doesn't matter. You can't change the past.", said Haruna with eyes filled with sorrow as she remembers her life three years ago.
"Why are you in San Diego when the last time I saw you, it was a few days ago in Seattle?", wonders Damian as Haruna turns to him an angrily glares at him.
"How about you mind your own damn business.", Haruna said in a demanding tone.
"Do you have any where to go?", asks Xavier.
Haruna turns to Xavier and glares at him.
"Why do you care?", demands Haruna.
"Because I can't abandon a someone who eyes are filled with suffering and loneliness.", said Xavier as Haruna's eyes widen, "I don't need my powers to see that."
Cyclops thought about it and decides something, "How about, until your injures heal, you stay in the mansion until then? Is that find with you three?"
Cyclops turns to Wolverine, Beast, and Emma Frost, whom the three agreed.
"And you?", Cyclops asks Haruna.
"Alright.", agrees Haruna, but then turns to Emma, "But I don't want the White Queen here to go through my mind. Nobody gets into my head."
Emma smirks a bit and says, "Very well. I'll try not to read it."
"Hey, what about this kid?", asks Wolverine, pointing at the boy.
"Seeing as this boy is mutant, with permission from Fury, and what we acquired from Lelouch, it would be best with we heal him in the mansion.", suggests Beast, "It going to take a while for him to recover, seeing as he took the most damage."
"Than it settled.", announced Cyclops.
Entering a tent in the very back, which contains a table and two chairs facing each other, Nick Fury sits in one, while Lelouch sits in the other.
"Now, what is it that you want?", demand Lelouch as Fury signals him to be quiet, as he left his seat and walks around the tent, looking like he trying to listen for something.
"This room is safe.", said Fury, "Now let get to business."
"What was that?", questions Lelouch, "Perhaps what you're going to say is something you don't want to leave in this room?"
Fury looks at Lelouch, who smirking, and answers, "Depending if you willing to do something that might benefit this country."
"And why should I help a country that I just arrived days ago?"
"Because of what you gain from helping me with a little something.", said Fury shows Lelouch a tablet.
Lelouch looks at it and turns it on. It shows Lelouch, a birth certificate of himself. Lelouch eyes widen as he looks through the tablet. It fake information about him. Drivers license (a real one), social security number, a three citizenship to England, France, and the United States. Not to mention a back account with $100,000 in the bank.
"I can see what this is, but what can I-"
"Think about it.", says Fury as he interrupts Lelouch, "In case something happens in which you need to appear to a government official, you have proof that are citizen in this country, as well as France and England. If you accept this deal, as far as the world knows, you are an orphan of a french woman and man from England who came her in the United States before finding out you are a mutant. Everything you need to live in this world."
"As well as money.", said Lelouch as he snickers, "Do I look like a mercenary to you."
"No, but you are a first-rate strategist. And better yet, you're not well-known.", says Fury.
"I see, so I'm expendable.", Lelouch says as he glares at Fury.
"No. I can't take a lot of risks, so I need people with high abilities and if possible, almost zero recognition. I'll make sure that we come out of this alive since I coming too. You just happened to be a prime candidate because of you intelligence and experience as a field leader."
"I see, than what is that you have in mind?", questions Lelouch.
"This."
Fury than swipes the tablet and shows the country of Latveria.
"Because of an incident between the Fantastic Four and Doctor Doom, Doom is dead, or specifically, he in hell.", explains Fury.
"What does that mean?", asks Lelouch.
"Don't matter, the point is that now, Latveria is on the state of potentially harming this country, and I need every gun necessary for this.", says Fury, "This is too good of an offer I'm giving you. You'll be working with people far more experience than you, meaning your survival rate is at least above 75%. So what is your answer?"
Lelouch about for a second. Certainly, he gains more for doing this, but what is the aftermath after this is all over? Lelouch though about what to do, and reaches his answer.
"Very well, I agree to this.", said Lelouch, hiding an ulterior motive for doing this.
"I see, than I'll explain everything after you arrive to Latveria. You'll be part of a group. You won't moss them.", explains Fury as he gives instructions to Lelouch.
After loading the boy and the bedridden Damian and Haruna in to a Blackbird, Fury stops by to Logan and whispers things to his ear. Logan eyes widen as he glances at Lelouch who goes to talk to Damian.
"Alright Fury.", growls Wolverine, "I'll play along with you and the kid, for all those times I owe you, but don't push it."
"Don't worry about it, Logan.", says Fury.
After loading everything up, Lelouch sees Wolverine glancing at him. Lelouch slide out part of a plane ticket this weekend to Latveria. Wolverine looks at it before looking at the window. As far as the X-Men know, Lelouch and Logan are going to pull an errand for Fury, but what they didn't know how big of an errand this going to be. Not even Lelouch and Wolverine themselves.
Saturday
Lelouch and Wolverine arrives via motorcycle to an airport in Manhattan that Fury told them to go. After grabbing their bags, they head to the plane. They haven't spoken to each other during the time they been together since morning. In a way, they can an understand each other a bit due to their past stained in blood. All it took was a few gestures and that was it. The only time they talked to each other was as soon as they arrive to the plane.
"Okay kid, I'm going to get something to drink so you better not sit next to me.", said Wolverine.
"I'll try not to bother you and for the last time, don't call me kid.", scoffs Lelouch.
Lelouch looks around the plane. It was a nice place, first class. He feels like he being watch, from a blind man in the second to last row. He sees a large African American in the back row, listening to music. There was two things that stood out the most to him though. Captain America, who sitting in the left side of the back row, and a young man, a few age younger than Lelouch, looking very nervous. For a second there, he looks like Suzaku, due to having similar face features, but he sees the young man has black wild hair and black eyes. Seeing as there is no other seats available, except for the blind man, Logan,'s seat and the young man, Lelouch decides to sit with the young man.
"Can you make room. There an extra seat next to you.", says Lelouch
"Okay.", said the young man who a bit startled as he scoots over to the next seat.
Lelouch takes out a book. It mostly about modern war strategies, but it keeps Lelouch busy. Lelouch glances and sees the young man looking at him. Not like judging him, but like he is sensing something.
"Is there any reason why you are staring at me?", says Lelouch glares at Zane.
"Sorry. It just that well you look like the only person who closer to my age here.", said the young man, who sounds like he lying, but took out his hand, "My name is Zane Dalton."
Lelouch looks at Zane's hands and shook it, 'Lelouch... Lamperouge."
Suddenly, the young man, Zane, suddenly turns to the entrance of the plane. Lelouch looks at it, but nobody was there. Suddenly, a man in his mid to late twenties came in. He has brown hair and brown eyes, as the Zane's eyes widen.
'Mr. Parker!"
Here we are, with Zane (Saiyan of Marvel) and Lelouch meeting for the first time. If you have any suggestions or questions or anything you want to say, just go to the Reviews or PM me.

Have a nice day/night!
P.S. for those of you who are wondering, yes Magneto did create a wormhole in the comics in Avengers Disassembled and was explained in Excalibur Vol 3 11. If you're not going to read them, just to the wiki to see more about Magneto or just take my word for it.
