Blackbird—

Harry's point of view—

I apperated onto the Blackbird.

"Harry? What's going on?" Jean asked

"The school was attacked by Striker." I say

"Where is everyone?" Storm asked

"They got six students, Dad has Anna, Bobby and John. They are going to Hermione's location which is her uncle's farm. The rest escaped to Merlin knows where." I say

I apperate away to the farm so they could quickly get the mutant they want. Hermione looks confused on why we are her.

Upstate New York—

Hermione's point of view—

I was watching 'The secret of moonacre' with Lila. I found it funny that one boy's name from French was translated to Robin Black, and his fathers was translated to Black Heart.

And this was our second movie we were watching in our all night movie marathon. The first was Dante's Peak. That one was Cooper's favorite. We, as Lila and I, were trying to stay up all night with Cooper and Aunt Laura.

Towards the end of the movie, after Lila fell asleep on my lap, I hear a car engine. And I know it's a car engine because the quinjet has a different sound and is quieter.

I walk outside with Aunt Laura and saw Scott's and my car pull up. But I see that Dad, Anna, John and another guy I don't recognize get out of the car. I was so confused about what was happening. Then Harry pops in.

"What's going on?" I ask as they get closer

"Striker." Dad, Harry and John all say

That one name rang through my head. Striker was the man who experimented on dad. He wanted professor Xavier to suppress Jason Striker's, his own son's x gene. Or make him into a slave.

"Let's talk in the barn." I say

I turn to Aunt Laura.

"I may have to go." I say as I hugged her

"Okay be safe." She said

"Don't let anyone in. They maybe under a disguise, a potion or mystique." I say

She nods and I head to the barn with the others. When we got into the barn I look to John.

"I think it's time." I say

"Are you sure? Because I don't think I have that much training." John says

"Yes I do and your ready. You always have been. I just got a call saying magneto escaped his glass and plastic prison." I say

"Um. Can we get some clothes? Please?" The guy I didn't recognize asked

"Sure." I said

I climbed the ladder. I heard John mutter to himself, 'how did cyclops keep a girl like her?' John never had tact. He knows that he can flirt with me, but won't get anywhere. He knows he's in the friend zone with me. For me, John is like that shameless brother. Who is smoking pot. In the '70's.

I got a set of Aunt Laura's old clothes for Anna and a couple sets of uncle Clint's old clothes for the boys. I also got dads and Harry's clothes I had stashed here. I also got some gloves for Anna I had here for emergencies. I use magic to lower them down as I climb back down the ladder.

"Here." I say as I distributed the clothes

"So what do we do now?" Bobby asked

"I don't know about you too, but Mya and I have a job to do while Harry and Logan knock people out." John said

"What do you mean?" Bobby asked

"The day after the liberty incident I was approached. Director Fury of SHEILD offered me a job on the insistence of the professor. Logan and Mya were there. Those are the only three in the school that know the mission I have." John said

"Why would Hermione know?" Anna asked

"I'm a SHIELD agent Anna. And dad is a consultant." I said

"And Mya is my handler." John said

"Been going strong since year 3 of school." I say

Then Fury walked in.

"Agents Allerdyce and Granger-Howlett are my two best agents on this mission." He said

"What mission?" Anna said

"To stop magneto permanently." Fury said

Then we hear the blackbird.

"Our rides here Nicholas. John and I get debriefed later." I say with a cocky smile

We walk to them. Jean and Storm come out all worried looking

"We got a little problem. The engine is sputtering." Jean said

I look to John.

"John, you're the best with engineering and mechanics." I say

John smiled and grabbed the tools he needed out of the barn and got to work. I'll alway remember the day I found out that John loves engineering and mechanics. It was the day I told him no matter how tough life gets you got to get back up on the high horse and keep riding.

Flashback—

Westchester—

Third point of view—

John was in the garage working on one of the cars. Hermione walked up. It had been a week since becoming a SHEILD agent, and it was breaking John apart.

"John are you okay?" Hermoine asked

"No I'm not. I can't take it anymore. I don't think I am cut out to be an agent of anything." John said, "I keep messing up. I want to quit."

"You're not quitting. I've been in your position before. I was younger then you are right now when I joined up." Hermione said

"What do you mean?" John asked

"When I was 13, right after my second year, I was asked by Fury to spy in my school. After a week of training that summer I wanted to quit. I wanted to tell Fury where he can stuff it. That's why I was appointed to be your handler John." Hermione said

John seemed to calm down at this notion.

"Thanks Mya." John said

"No problem. And Mya?" Hermione asked

"My nickname for you. I hear all these people around calling you Mia or Hermione. I wanted something all of my own." John said

"It's okay I like it. So you like engineering and mechanics?" Hermione asked

"Love it." John said

The two talked all night. Hermione told John how she was known as Lady Prince back in England and how she was rich because her potions master left her everything.

John told his Mya on how his father had owned a car shop when he was growing up in Sydney. But John had to sell it when his father passed away.

End of flashback—

Upstate—

third point of view—

Anna sat down next to Kurt.

"Thank you." Anna said

"Bitte schön." Kurt said

"It's not fair that John, Hermione and Harry are over there and not us. Can you hear what they are saying?" Anna says

"I can take a closer look." Kurt said

———

Erik came to the camp about ten minutes ago. Said that he wanted to talk.

"Who attacked the school?" Storm asked

"His name is Colonel William Striker. And Hermione invaded your mansion for one purpose: He wanted cerebro. Or enough to build one of his own." Erik said

"That doesn't make any sense. Striker would need the professor to operate it." Jean said

"Which I think is the only reason why our friend's still alive." Erik said

"Oh my god." Storm said

The Jean and Storm shared a look.

"Now what are you all afraid of?" James asked

"While cerebro is working Charles's mind is connected to every living person on the planet. If he were forced to concentrate hard enough on a particular group, mutants for example. He could kill us all." Erik said

"Wait a minute. Where would Striker find cerebro in the first place?" Storm asked

Erik looked guilty.

"Because I told him. I helped Charles build it remember? Mr. Striker has powerful methods of persuasion. Even a mutant as strong as Charles." Erik said

"So who's this Striker anyway?" Storm asked

"A military scientist. Hermione spent his whole life trying to solve the mutant problem. If you want a more intimate perspective why don't you ask wolverine?" Erik said

"That part of my memory is still a bit fuzzy." James said

"William Striker, the only other man I know who can manipulate adamantium. The metal on your bones. It carries his signature." Erik said

"But The professor—" James starts

"The professor trusted that you were smart enough to discover this on your own. He gives you more credit then I do, Aouror Potter." Erik said

James looked to Erik. John's jaw dropped. Hermione was ready to hex the man in front of her.

"Why do you need us?" Storm asked

"Mystique has discovered plans of a base that Striker has been operating out of for decades. We know that's where he is building the second cerebro. But we don't know where the base is, and I believe one of you might." Erik said

"The professor already tried." James said

"Once again, you think it's all about you Aouror." Erik said

Erik then looked up. They saw Kurt there hanging from a tree.

"Oh…hello." Kurt said

Kirt got down. Jean stood in front of him ready to read his mind. Hermione wanted to do it because she was a healer.

"I didn't mean to snoop." Kurt said

"Just relax. Okay?" Jean said

She read Kurt's mind. It showed pictures of the base. If finally showed where it was. Alkali lake.

"He's at Alkali lake." Jean said

"I went there. There is nothing but ruins." James said

"The base is not on the surface. It's underground." Jean said
