Note; this story takes place in an alternate reality where Charles Xavier's dream for a peaceful world has just begun at the turn of the century. Magneto is lying in a hospital bed in the Westchester Mansion. The X Men have just been joined by a man named Maverick, the X Men have been invaded by Alpha Flight!

Alpha Flight a Canadian superhero team designed and hired to destroy all threats to their motherland Canada. They are led by a small hairy mutant named Weapon X.

Weapon X was created by a weapon programme also called Weapon X, his healing power enabled scientists to bond a near indestructible metal alloy called adamantium to every single one of his bones. Weapon X previously had bone claws that he could extend from his knuckles these also had adamantium grafted onto them. Weapon X is the perfect killing machine able to heal any wound almost as soon as it is inflicted.

The next member of Alpha Flight is the large but not too smart Strong Guy. His real name is Guido Carosella former bodyguard to the mutant rock star Lila Cheney. He can absorb kinetic impacts such as punches or kicks and convert it into strength. The head of Department H, James Hudson, approached Guido. Department H heard of Strong Guy when he used his massive strength against a gang of men trying to hurt Lila Cheney.

The third member is another product of the Weapon X programme is an engineered assassin named Wade Wilson also known as Deadpool. Diagnosed with a form of cancer Wade was desperate and joined the Weapon X programme and was gifted with a healing factor akin to the short mutant Weapon X but it permanently scarred all of Wade's body. Wade was tested and excelled in battle and given the code name Deadpool!

The last member of Alpha Flight was the large and hairy Sasquatch. His real name is unknown to all but the head of Department H, James Hudson. Sasquatch is a man who can transform himself into the monster of legend.

The Alpha jet landed on the front lawn of the Westchester Mansion. It's sleek form gently settling on the rippling grass. Out of the jet came four figures. The first to hit the floor was a short squat man. He growled at the X Men and bared his teeth. "Alpha Flight have landed!" he said emphasising the point by sprouting three claws from each hand. Behind the diminutive leader landed two other red and white garbed individuals and a third covered in dark brown fur. One was the size of an average man, his mask had large bug eyes and two swords strapped to his back. The other large and rippling with muscles and a pair of goggles strapped to his forehead. "Alpha Flight forward," yelled the clawed man and ran towards the waiting X Men. The waiting X Men are; the telepathic Charles Xavier, the armoured Colossus, the inventor Forge, the magic-wielder Scarlet Witch and the newly arrived Maverick. A whoosh of wind filled the air and the mutant speedster Quicksilver arrived on the scene looking around seeing the oncoming Alpha Flight. Quicksilver! said the professor's voice inside of Pietro's head. Is Nightcrawler and Psylocke okay? Kurt's fine and should be here soon but Betsy still seems to be unconscious replied Quicksilver.

Maverick and Forge waited beside Professor Xavier guarding him in case Alpha Flight managed to get past Colossus, Scarlet Witch and Quicksilver. Even though Charles Xavier had the most powerful mind on the planet he wasn't a very physical man, which he was going to change if he survived this attack.

The gigantic Sasquatch charged at the young woman Wanda Maximoff. Wanda gave a small shriek and tried to fly above the beast. She wasn't quick enough as the Sasquatch grasped her slender leather-clad leg and pulled her into its crushing embrace. "Wanda!" yelled Quicksilver but he was unable to rescue her as he was trying to subdue the bug eyed Deadpool. "Piotr help my sister," begged Pietro Maximoff. The seven-foot tall Russian picked up the short leader of Alpha Flight and hurled him at the nearest wall. The wall collapsed on top of the diminutive man. Colossus thundered towards the Sasquatch and pounded the hairy beast with his metal fists that could punch holes through solid concrete. Sasquatch let out a roar of pain and let go of the X Man; Scarlet Witch.

Pietro Maximoff in other circles called Quicksilver is most likely the fastest human that has ever lived. He was currently exchanging blows too fast for the human eye to see with the Alpha Flight member, Deadpool. "Don't think you can beat me you mutant freak," yelled Deadpool doubling over from Quicksilver's punches. Wade Wilson struck out blindly in the hope that he hit something. The gods were with the Canadian agent and the blow hit home. Pietro flew backward gasping for breath. Deadpool got up his own healing factor healing his bruises and cuts. "Now you Genetic Misfit, I'm going to finish you nice and slow!" Deadpool's mask stretched over his smile. Deadpool punched Quicksilver in the jaw sending him to the floor. Deadpool then slowly drew two long sabres from his back. Deadpool drew a long thin cut along Pietro's chest but was shallow enough not to draw blood. Quicksilver closed his eyes waiting for the inevitable. It took an age but Pietro couldn't wait any longer and opened his eyes to see Deadpool lying on the floor a smoking hole in his chest. A pair of hands hoisted Quicksilver to his feet. Pietro turned around to see Maverick smiling at the young white haired mutant.

Strong Guy pulled a large plate of titanium off of the mansion and threw it toward the solitary Xavier, his protectors had been dragged into the battle. Xavier began to turn to see the very, heavy chunk of metal fly toward him but did not have any telekinesis to shunt it aside. The metal hit the ground with a loud crash and Guido Carosella allowed a grin to break across his face. He sauntered over to the metal and hoisted it high above his head to glimpse the horror underneath. Much to Guido's annoyance there was no mess underneath or mangled body. Guido looked around for Xavier but could not see him.

A hundred and ten metres away appeared a puff of purple smoke, which the mutants Nightcrawler and Professor X appeared. "Thank you Kurt. If not for you, I would most likely be crushed," said Professor X. "No problem, Herr Professor. I must get back to the battle," said Nightcrawler rushing away in a puff of smoke.

The bricks and mortar shifted and the squat man named Weapon X emerged, his face contorted in fury. "Okay Russkie. You're gonna pay for that," said Weapon X. Weapon X with a yell of fury leaped from the remains of a wall on top of the metallic form of Colossus. Weapon X plunged a metal claw into Colossus' shoulder. Piotr Rasputin's organic metal gave barely any resistance to Weapon X's adamantium blades. Piotr yelled in pain and wrenched the small man off of his shoulder and hurled him toward the waiting Forge. Weapon X landed and Forge placed a small pad on the floor next to the recovering Weapon X. The techno wizard tapped a few buttons on the pad, which detonated into a small forcefield encompassing the small warrior. "What's that Forge?" asked Colossus who was busy wiping crimson blood from his shoulder. "A miniature forcefield which not even our small friend can cut out of. You better get up to the medical bay," said Forge. Colossus nodded and headed back into the mansion.

Two of the Alpha Flight had been defeated leaving the two powerhouses Sasquatch and Strong Guy. Left standing with the X Men was Forge, Nightcrawler, Maverick, Quicksilver and Scarlet Witch. Nightcrawler, Quicksilver and Scarlet Witch were dealing with Strong Guy but no matter how many times they hit with punches, kicks or rubble wouldn't slow him.

X MEN! Strong Guy becomes more powerful the more time he is hit with kinetic impacts such as punches!

"Switch opponents" yelled the X Men's field leader Nightcrawler. Forge and Maverick left Sasquatch and started battling Strong Guy, their guns didn't seem to enhance to Strong Guy's strength as they were laser based. The three official X Men began fighting Sasquatch who seemed a lot more susceptible to punches than Guido was.

Xavier felt almost helpless, as he could not incapacitate Sasquatch or Strong Guy with his telepathy due to psyblockers, which blocked certain parts of the brain. Charles Francis Xavier wracked his brain for other solutions then it hit him. He could access the Sasquatch's powers. Xavier gently let himself into the beast's mind and switched off the Sasquatch's ability to turn his figure into the massive behemoth. The hairy beast shrank down to human size and its fur slipped back into his skin.

Guido was angry but now scared, as the rest of his team was defeated. He swept aside the two mutants with puny guns and thundered toward the crippled Xavier. Guido raised his massive fists preparing to squash the small homo superior. He saw the horror spread across Xavier's face, his team may have failed but he would not. Visions of glory filled Guido's imagination. Then his mind went blank and he fell to the floor.

Xavier was filled with pure terror. So much terror that he couldn't concentrate on getting into Strong Guy's mind then the mutant lurched forward, pain evident by the look on his face. Charles looked upward at the falling powerhouse, perched on his shoulders was the English mutant Psylocke. Her psychic knife penetrating Guido's skull. The last member of Alpha Flight crashed to the ground with Betsy Braddock smiling sweetly at her mentor. Then she said with confidence, "Am I great or what?"
