Own nothing

(Somewhere near Bayville High)

In what used to be an old office block, was now the premises of a brand-new state of the art Science Department. Or rather, it would be. For now, in the basement was where the excitement was currently located.

Both Doctors looked at Campbell and the three of them looked at one another, they had acquired funding through some 'anonymous but concerned' parties with very high positions in either the Government and or had influence of parties allowing them to get this equipment. "Project Shield seems to work…A robot-sized human, looking and sounding the part…" Campbell commented as he recorded the heart rate, oxygen flow and importantly the well-being of the four officers.

The Officers in question had been selected for their exemplar skills in dealing with armed and dangerous personal, it also helped that they were religious to not to the extent of fanatical zealots. Anyway, they had immediately volunteered after initial recommendations. The machines were glowing a slow and steady blue; when suddenly three of them flickered red and began flashing. This was accompanied by frantic banging, Doctor Campbell opened the doors one at a time and gently eased the officers onto comfy chairs and beds.

"Gentlemen, the sensations you're feeling at this moment in time are temporary and will eventually fade. I ask you not to panic because right now the three of you are dangers to yourselves." With that Campbell headed over to the fridge and came back with a set of gels and various bottles of water.

Detective Alexander Brown, a man of moderate height and build was the first to come to his senses. "Was that the feeling of dying? What the hell was that?"

His two colleagues Chris Hughes and Benjamin Dover were of similar mindsets.

"Gentlemen, I'm Doctor Roderick Campbell and that scenario gentlemen is the newest threat to humanity. Myself and a few others need your help. For our ideas and the technology being used will be revolutionary for the future."

"We're in Sir…We only ask that you do not force us into positions of personal and professional interest and integrity."

Trask and Campbell nodded "Gentlemen, welcome to the safety of Humanity."

(X-Mansion)

"Rogue, I want you to know that those armed guards at the school that threatened you, they weren't real." Xavier said after stripping down the teens in his office for impulsive behaviour and lethal use of force along with power usage.

"I have some contacts and favours that I can use. Due to the fact that the people who were killed are still alive, I am fairly certain we'll be able to prove their innocence. Combined with the protest and video recordings in the public domain of the incident, however videos can be tampered with…"

Neville nodded "So you want us to get some hard evidence such as our own physical copy of the crime-scene, photos of the bodies etc. What about Harry?"

Charles Xavier chuckled slightly "He's possibly in the best place for him at this point in time. Eric and I may not agree with each other but we both know that putting you four on trial for crimes you were set up for is illegal immoral and definitely against American Constitution."

"Professor, how many mutants are there anyway?" Asked Dean curiously

"I do not have a precise number why?"

"Because according to your Constitution, why haven't mutants pushed for Minority groups privileges or entitlements or whatever it's meant to be called. Furthermore, if you do this due to this storm that's kicked off due to Harry but I suspect Robert Kelly as well…You could ruin Kelly's plans to be a Member of Congress because his stance against the 'Mutant Menace', his words; can be seen as Anti-American and Anti-Freedom. If they protest well I found replicas of the paperwork of 1940's Germany…"

Xavier's eyes hardened "That is…extreme."

"No, Professor…This is making a stand. Quite frankly I've had enough of being made second or even third class citizens in the magical world. If your Government falls to my words, stance and arguments well Harry's right…Government wasn't strong enough."

"Harry Potter is rather…unique, he's admitted it."

Neville snorted "But he's the first to see the writing on the wall; he knows that something's gonna upset the applecart. He'll admit that he's done it. However, you've not seen him take a stand…He's one of those that'll just keep fighting for what he believes in."

(Brotherhood House)

Harry had turned off his phone, grabbed Lance's and absentmindedly dialled Rogue "I'm fine. Lying low for a bit." Harry turned to Lance and the Brotherhood with surprisingly Mystique with them.

"All of you, I'd advise lying low…Right now Armed Security, Cops and Armed Cops are going to be swarming the building."

"What happened?" Mystique asked curiously.

"Armed Security and Mutant Hunting. Anyway, some of the Guards aggravated me, threatened us and as you know, self-defence. However, my self-defence ended up killing the Security."

Mystique nodded "I appreciate the information. You, Harry Potter are allowed to take refuge with the Brotherhood of Mutants for as long as you could require."

Harry let out a deep breath "Thanks a bunch, Mystique."

It was Blob who spoke next "Harry…do you…videogame?"

Harry looked at them "Not really. But…if you're willing to put up with me making mistakes and dying a lot, then sure…We've got time right now."

(MACUSA)

"Mr. Black, your Godson is not in any trouble with MACUSA; just the mundane side of things. Yes, we report directly to both presidents."

"You guys have two Presidents…I thought it was only one?" Sirius blurted out and the MACUSA representative face palmed.

"In the Mundane or No-Maj world there is the President of the United States, the Magical States of America have a President as well. However, to the Mundane world he's a director. Together both President and Director look at any bills and laws that want to be passed such as stricter Bills on Immigration, it has to meet criteria on both sides for it to be made into effect as both No-Maj and Wizards move here."

Sirius nodded "I get it. Both the President and the Director ensure that any laws that impact Mundanes and Wizards are equally fair in their implementation. But, Harry and his Friends killed three people in broad-daylight…"

(Brotherhood House)

Mystique snorted "It was self-defence, please. Professor X, isn't the only mutant with surveillance over Bayville. I too noticed the set of events and I've even made a recording of it. They sabotaged your car, threatened you and didn't follow a single rule when it comes to detaining and arresting you. Furthermore, there was a Doctor Bolivar Trask there as well…The Dwarf."

"The one that looked shockingly like Peter Dinklage? So…does that mean those cops are on the take from another payee aside from Bayville PD?"

Mystique nodded slowly "Potter, it's because I like you…despite you living with the X-Geeks."

"I'm flattered Mystique; but not my type. You're decent enough Principle…Now…If you'll excuse me, we were going to veg out if that is the correct terminology."

Mystique nodded and she headed out.

(Egypt)

Deep within the pyramid of the Obsidian Sarcophagus, some faint glowing bands of energy were slowly fading. In correspondence to the glowing bands were four pillars, one of these pillars had cracked and one band had vanished.

Another band shimmered and reduced in brightness of light and intensity of the magic, but hadn't faded yet. The obsidian pillar lightened and at the very tops, if someone was paying attention slight cracks appeared. The cracks resembled thin tendrils and slowly they began to descend.

(Essex)

"Thank you for seeing me, Herr Essex." Said a man in a very fine, tailored suit which was black on the outside and purple interior with a skull surrounded in snake heads.

"My honour, Herr Zemo. Heil Hydra."
"Hail Hydra, Herr Essex."

Zemo sat down as two cups of coffee arrived at their table "My condolences."

"Much appreciated. Iz everything prepared?"

"Sterilised and prepped myself and two of my most talented placement nurses."

"Zey won't say anything?"

"A word of an experienced, respected and willing Doctor of well-known repute and reputation…They're getting in essence a free ride. They won't say anything especially with the fact that they believe that the procedure's we are performing might cure a few cases of blood-cancer."

"Myself? Surely they'll question my presence…"

Essex snorted "I had lunch with them to get their measure. You'll like them both but love one of them. She has a form of tunnel vision; if you're not instructing her then she'll be happy."

"What if I approached her on scientific thoughts and techniques?"

Essex chuckled "You'd better ensure you're on your toes. Enhanced agility or not; her debating on scientific approaches and theories is second to none."

"She sounds like a capable person…Thankyou for the coffee Herr Essex; I wish to meet the team who are bringing my children back to me."

Essex nodded "You have everything I requested?"

Zemo nodded "I do…Although, I am concerned about ze ramifications."

Essex grinned "Do not worry, Baron Zemo. Have no worries, in fact if you're familiar with the Struckers, I managed to assist Andreas and Andrea in having children, I have found some of their descendants."

Zemo nodded "I have vorked wiz a Strucker before. If his children did zis Herr Essex, zen I shall so also trust you."

Essex smirked "The last of my specimens has finally arrived. Now the fun…really begins."
