Arclight turned into Mystique.

"Mystique?" said Wanda, confused. "What are you doing here?"

"Your loving father thought you could use some help saving your brother."

"Where's Arclight?" demanded Sinister.

"She's waiting for you. . . in Hell."

"Marauders, get here quickly!"

But the Marauders didn't show. Instead, the X-Men, the Brotherhood, and the Acolytes came into the lab.

"Where are the Marauders?"

"The Brotherhood and X-Men beat 'em up and then Vic finished them off," said John.

Sabretooth licked the blood off his fingers.

"They're all dead," said Remy. "Even the Jean clone."

"And you're next, bub," snarled Wolverine.

"I think not," smirked Sinister. "You may have gotten past my Marauders, but you won't defeat me so easily."

He fired a concussive blast at them. It was tough fighting Sinister. He had genetic alteration, so he possesses a wide array of powers. Over the years, Sinister has used the genetic material of other mutants to grant himself a vast array of powers.

Peter was able to get to Pietro and trip the straps that held him down. He picked him up.

"I got him."

"Then let's go," said Remy.

"Wait!"

Rogue grabbed Remy's arm.

"What do you think you're doing?"

"Cheri, Remy, John, and Peter don't want to take Pietro away, but we have to. Magneto's orders."

"You don't have to listen to Magneto. You can join us."

"Remy can't. Magneto owns Remy."

"How?"

"He saved Remy."

"From who?"

"Long ago, Remy had trouble controlling his powers. Then one day, Remy meets a man named Sinister. Sinister is one sick man, Cheri. He did things. Things that haunt Remy's dreams. Then one day Magneto comes and saves Remy. Magneto may be bad and Remy don't like working for him, but he's better then the mad scientist."

"You were one of Sinister's followers?"

Remy nodded.

"Remy has to go now, Cheri. I'm sorry."

He gave Rogue a quick kiss on the lips and ran off. Rogue gasped at the memory of Sinister doing experiments on Remy.

"I don't think so!" bawled Scott, hitting Peter in the back with his blast.

Peter fell and dropped Pietro.

Lance picked him up and carried him over his shoulder.

"Let's blow this joint!"

"I, like, agree," said Kitty.

Sabretooth jumped up and was ready to take Pietro from Lance, but Wolverine tackled him to the grown.

"Just go!" he growled. "I'll catch up!"

Storm hit Mystique with a lightning bolt, which knocked Mystique out. Bobby froze John's kerosene-based flame-thrower and Boom Boom used her bombs to blast him into a wall. Amara was able to take out Remy.

"Where'd Sinister go, yo?" asked Todd.

"Don't know," said Megan. "And I hope we never see him again."

Once the Acolytes were out of the way, the two teams went home.

"You're safe now, Pietro," Wanda said to her sleeping twin.

'Damn Magneto!' thought Sinister, bitterly. 'I'll find more followers and I'll-"

A long piece of metal stabbed Sinister in the chest.

He coughed up some blood.

"Nathaniel, it's been a long time," said Magneto.

Sinister glared at him.

"Erik, you bastard!"

"If anyone is the bastard here, it's you. This is what you get for trying to use my son to get rid of me."

Magneto stabbed Sinister again.

"AHHHHHHHHH!"

Magneto smiled. "You don't know how long I've wanted to do this."

I think you all know what's going to happen to Sinister now.
