Alkali Lake

"Thank you for the help, Slade." Oliver said over the phone.

"Good job, everyone." Xavier said.

"Now, with Apocalypse's factory building an army out of commission, now we can focus on taking the fight to him and getting into his tower." Mack said.

"Is it possible that Apocalypse was doing experiments on people to discover what this Harmonic DNA is?" Sara inquired.

"It's likely. Felicity and I and FitzSimmons have been going through the data we got from that place, it's not much but yeah, he was definitely looking for it." Oliver said.

"Why would he want the Harmonic DNA, whatever it is?" Jean asked.

"Not sure, but I'm getting a reading about genetic enhancements… it's mostly experimenting on people…" Cisco frowned as he looked at the readings on the computer. "It's going to take me and the Wellses a while to decipher it all."

"It has to all be connected somehow." Harry said.

"We'll have to take the fight to him." Hank said as everyone turned to him. "It's all connected somehow, him kidnapping mutants and humans in Genosha and New York, searching for this… Harmonic DNA, the translation of the symbols in the temple, who knows what is he planning."

"Then the plan is…" Sara asked.

"We're going to infiltrate Apocalypse's tower. Luckily, we got the blueprints from the computer in Apocalypse's facility before we blew the place to hell. There is a way in for us." Steve said.


The Avengers, X-Men, Oliver, Sara, Barry, Cisco, Caitlin and everyone else was lying around, with piles of ruins and ashes everywhere as Apocalypse was on top of a pyramid, laughing, on the ground instead of rock or dirt, were just skeletons and ashes.

"Only the strongest survive… and I will help this world usher into the new age!" Apocalypse laughed as Xavier and Magneto were on the ground, crawling before Apocalypse's hand started to glow, about to finish everyone off.


Wanda gasped as she came to, sweat on her forehead as she got up and grabbed the blanket to cover herself before she noticed Barry at the bedside, wearing only pants as he held her by her arm.

"It's OK, Wanda. It was just a dream." Barry assured.

"It didn't feel like it." Wanda said as she shuddered.

"Look, it's gonna be OK." Barry said, holding her hand as Wanda smiled at him. "We should get ready and move out."

Wanda nodded as she got up from the bed, putting her clothes on.


Later

The Quinjet and X-Jet each flew around the tower and dodging the blasts from its defenses as they flew through the hangar doors and Wanda formed a giant barrier to deflect the blasts of the mutants guarding the hangar. Storm summoned whirlwind on the outside, blinding the mutants before everyone went out as Pietro and Barry knocked some of them down, Cyclops fired his optic beam, blasting away some of the guards and Jean threw boxes and machines at them, crushing them before they would recover. Kurt teleported around and pulled swords out, slicing down the mutants as Sara and Natasha pulled out their batons, engaging the soldiers, who had swords but Magneto ripped a plate of metal from the wall, cutting them down, while Logan and Sabretooth worked together to tear them into pieces and Hank also helped, leaping around and pounding them, while Scott threw his Pym disks, shrinking some of the guards before crushing them with his foot as Oliver, Bucky and Clint shot down the rest.

As they entered another area, some statues came to life as they picked their swords and spears but Steve threw his shield, shattering some of them, while precise shots with explosive arrows did the job with another group before Jean used her telekinesis to tear them apart.

They kept advancing before facing some armored men with blades protruding from their forearms. "Blasphemers! You will not stand in the way of Apocalypse!"

"We'll see about that." Logan smirked.


As they kept fighting through Apocalypse's men and got separated, they were in one area, where they noticed a man only in jeans restrained to some apparatus and Steve pried the door open. "Tony?"

Tony looked up, looking beaten up and had scars on his chest as Steve looked horrified before he smashed the restraints with his shield. "Cap?" Tony whispered.

"Yeah, yeah, it's me. Come on, let's get out of here, then we'll find Apocalypse—" Steve started.

"Trap…" Tony whispered.

"What?" Steve asked before the nanites covered Tony's body, forming the Iron Man suit on him as he recovered and the nanites started to heal him as he got up.

"You shouldn't have come here, Cap, it's a trap." Tony said.


The group managed to take out Apocalypse's men but then a red bolt of lightning appeared, knocking them all down before they recovered and glared.

"Thawne." Barry glared.

"That's right, Barry." Thawne smirked. "You should've known better than to come here."

"We've stopped you before and we've managed to put an end to every plan Apocalypse has executed. We're not afraid." Oliver said confidently.

"Only because Apocalypse wanted you here. You've done nothing than to jump into every hoop he has placed for you… and I should thank you for bringing them here." Thawne said, much to their confusion before they turned to Hank, who pulled out some small device, immediately immobilizing them all.

"Hank! What are you doing?!" Cyclops demanded before a blue-skinned giant figure in blue, in an armor and tubes connected to it appeared, stomping with each step as he smiled at Hank.

"Well done, my dark beast. You have brought them all here…" Apocalypse said, glaring at them. "And not just them but most of our enemies…"

They all felt unnerved by facing Apocalypse, who was tall and gave an intimidating presence.

"Thank you, my master." Hank knelt down.

"Henry… how could you?" Storm whispered.

"The Henry you remember, died in Savage Land. I am servant of the one true god now…" Hank said with an evil sadistic smile none of them had ever seen before, realizing he had been playing them all along.

"Worry not… I will not kill you…" Apocalypse said, eying some of them. "I sense the Harmonic DNA in all that I need…" He did a gesture as suddenly, Sabretooth, Wanda and Kurt vanished in some kind of shimmer.

Jean was also about to disappear, when her eyes blazed and red aura started to surround her as the X-Men paled.

"Jean…" Cyclops started.

"Jean, no!" Logan yelled as Jean let out a scream of agony and next thing they knew, Jean was consumed by flames and an explosion of energy sent everyone knocking down as everything cut to black.


Yup, Hank had been brainwashed by Apocalypse and Mr. Sinister to lure them into a trap and I think it's obvious what happened to Jean, though things are not going to have the desired outcome for either party and we're slowly heading to the finale.

So, what do you guys think?
