Seattle, Washington
A man is climbs up a mountain of dead bodies, trying to reach the road. He remembers a time when it was raining in Seattle all the time, its not at the moment, but the man wished it was, yeah it would make is climb harder but at least it would cut the stench. When he reached the top, he stood up and walk when a small girl ran up to him crying, she grabbed him and said while crying "help me, there after me."
As soon as she finished talking the a group of infinite's walked up, then one of them started to speak, "There she is Prelate Unis, the girl that escaped from the pen."
"I can see that you idiot, and it looks like she found a friend. I thought I told you to scan." Prelate Unis said.
"I did sir, I can't pick him up on the scanner, it must be a mechanical problem." The Infinte said.
"Fool, don't blame your equipment for your own stupidity," Unis said, then he chrushed the Infinite's skull with a force feild. "And you, I will deal with you now flatscan," Unis said to the man. Unis lashed out at the man with a force feild in his midsection, causing the man to hunch over in pain, then he stood up straight and and looked at Unis.
The man said as soon as he finished standing up in vaoice of age and experience, "If you like your force feild so much, take it back." The man then fired an energy blast at Unis, who barely got a force field up around himself before the energy bolt hit him. The man thought he could her a faint "no" come from the girl that was now hiding behind him.
Unis yelled out in suprise, "Your a mutant! Kill the traitor, NOW!!"
And that was when a near by wall exploded and a man in red armor said, "You know, we traitors like to stick together."
Unis, now in a rage yelled, "IT'S THE X-MEN, KILL THEM!!!"
The man and the small child backed off as Unis and his Infinites attacked the X-men. The X-men were out numbered at least two to one, but tey didn't mind. Storm called down lightning killing one of the Infinites instantly. Creed and Wild Child attacked like savage animals, and a while a plea for mercy from Blink, the youngest X-man in the team may have weaken Creed's heart, it didn't weaken Rogue's, as she punched an Infinite as hard as she could, in fact the only thing that stopped him from reaching the Pacific, which was many miles away, was a very sudden stop, provided by Morph. When an Infinitw attempter to sneak up on Rogue, nightcrawler teleported on top of him and broke his neck. Quicksilver was fighting several of the Infinites at once, and winning. Sunspot, the newest member of the X-men stood off and incinerated any Infinite that came near him. Magneto was also standing apart from the fight.
Suddenly a gun was at Magneto's head and Unis spook to Magneto, "Don''t move and don't even think of using your powers, its a plastic gun, and the bullets are made of a special material, not metal, so don't move, don't blink, don't even breath," the gun was now no more than an inch from touching Magneto's helmet. Magneto was absolutely still, Unis continued by saying, "Your coming with me or I swear your dead, now call off your X-Men."
Magneto said one word, "No."
Unis replied to that by saying, "then your dead.... What the? I can't pull the trigger, its cold, I'm cold!... NOOOOooooo" Unis stopped at that point because he shattered, literally. The X-men finished with the Infinite's at that moment.
Iceman stood behind the shattered corpse of Unis and said, "You know I'm not always going to be here to save you, you really have to give up on this death wish you got boss."
"I don't have a death wish, Pietro could have stopped the bullets with ease," Magneto said as he walked over to the cliff of bodies that the man had just climbed up on and looked at a sea of bodies. Magneto continued by saying, "Look at this, I had a dear, close freind once, he had a dream, a dream where humans and mutants could live together in peace and harmony. His name was Charles Xavier, and imagine him looking down from heaven and crying at what the world has become, at how his dream died in an instant so long ago."
"Father," Quicksilver, who was Magneto's son said, "His dream hasn't died, not while you continue to believe in it."
"But it has died, I failed him, come I wish to speak of this no more, let us see who this stranger is," Magneto said and then walked off.
A few moments later the Magneto was standing before the man, who still had the young girl with him. The man looked at the girl, then at Magneto and yelled as he grabbed Magneto, "YOU! Its you fault! You let him die! Its all your fault!" At that point the hood fell off his head, behind Magneto's helmet a sudden look of recognition breifly passed over his face, but no one else had seen it.
Magneto said sleep, and waved his hand, and the strange man passed out.
"How did you do that?" Creed asked.
"I slowed the flow blood to his brain." Magneto said.
"You can do that?" Creed asked.
"There is iron in the blood," Magneto said.
"Do ya know him?" Rogue asked her husband with her southern accent.
"No, never seen him before in my life," Magneto lied, "lets get back to the Mansion before any more patrols arrive."

The Beast's lab on Apocalypse Island
"NOOOOOOO!! IT HURTS!!" Fred Dukes cries as he struggles against the bonds that hold him.
"Calm down mister Dukes. Anything I do to you can only be an improvement." A gruff voice says. Before the speaker has any chance to continue, the bonds snap, and a very, very large Fred Dukes jumps into the air, attempting to crush his tormentor. Before he gets the chance however, a wave of Cosmic Energy strikes him, sending him flying into the machinery that once held him in place. "Ah, Mister Dukes, allow me to introduce you to Mister Alex Summers. Or as we like to call him, Havok, as in mayhem, destruction of property, etc, etc."
"God, Beast what have you done to him." Alex says as he unleashed another blast that Fred shrugs off after it carves into Fred's shoulder. "His speed and dexterity. How can something that big move that way." His Cosmic blasts slice into their target but not stopping him.
"BUTCHER!" Fred screams as he leaps into the air again intent on crushing both Beast and Havok. This time a beam of red crimson energy slams into him, tearing him in half.
"That's what I want to know, McCoy!" The beam originator says as the two halves fall to the ground with a sicking thud. "You know there is no Genetic testing allowed during the 'Kelly Pact!'"
"Well Cyclops, In order for Mother McCoy to have the ablity to make better Infinites, he needs to break a few dozen or so eggs." Beast replies as he throws the torn pieces of Fred Dukes into a large vat filled with a green fluid and body parts.
"Damn it Beast, cut this bullshit or I'll report you to Sinister." Scott screams as he leaves the wrecked lab.
"What's his problem?" Beast asks Havok, who just scowls in the direction of the leaving Prelate.
"Thats what I'd like to know," Havok says after Cyclops left.

Ruins of Bayville, Xavier Mansion
"Has he woken up yet?" Magneto asked as he walked into the room where the stranger is being held.
"He's been awake for some time, he's rambling on about some guy called Legion and someone killing Xavier. And about the world not being "our world" because time was warped, it was just nonsense." Wanda Maximoff, Magneto's daughter, told her father.
That was when the stranger looked up and at Magneto. Magneto said when he noticed the stranger looking at him, "What is your name stranger, and how is time warped?"
"I am called Bishop, and time is warped because Xavier is dead, he was meant to live." The Sranger said.
Magneto waited a moment before asking, "And how is Xavier being dead end up warping time?"
Bishop replied by saying, "None of this would have happened if Xavier would have lived."
Magneto was silent, Wanda said "What?!? How can one person change all this?"
After several minutes, Magneto said, "Wanda, go and assemble the X-Men, we are going to see if what this man has to say is true or not. I am going to go and see my Rogue and Charles."
-------------------------------------------------------------- -------------------------------------------------
In the Heart of Apocalypse's stronghold, a lone robed figure walks unafraid in a place few would dare to walk. Two Madri guards attempt to stop him, but they are killed before they can move against him, and the robed man walks right into Apocalypse's inner chamber.
A booming voice, a voice wich thunder would envy says, "So, Dark Man, you finally decide to visit me, and to what do I owe this pleasure?"
A low hissing voice, a voice filled with hate and evil, replies "Its been several centuries since last I saw you, I felt we sould speak again, Apocalypse."
"About what?" Apocalypse asked.
"How is your war against the humans coming?" The Dark Man asked.
"Slowly, those sentinels of theres make it almost impossible to gain a foothold or infiltrate. Those damned sentinals attack a mutant on sight, and their sensors detect mutantion." Apocalypse said.
"A pity, did you like my gift?" The Dark Man asked.
"Yes, it was most informative, I sent Death on a mission regarding it almost immediately" Apocalypse said.
"Good, well I must take my leave, farewell Apocalypse," The Dark Man said as he left.

In distant space, not even in this galaxy, a wave of crystalization energy is sweeping across space. It is headed toward a little blue planet in the Milky Way galaxy. A little blue planet called- Earth.
