CHAPTER II

Cannonball

Professor Charles Francis Xavier had ordered the X-Men on another mission- to recover a mutant named Samson Guthry, otherwise known as Cannonball. He had the power to generate thermochemical energy as a blast field, which can act as propulsion, or basically become a flying ball. He had been avoiding gangs for some time, for they persecuted him because of not only his belonging to another gang, but because of his powers. Xavier had sent Scott Summers (Cyclops), Kurt Wagner (Nightcrawler), Logan (Wolverine), and Rogue (Marie D'Ancanto) to find him. So far, they had been searching for a few hours, and no matches.

"Why does Xavier even care about this mutant?" asked Logan.

"Because he is a mutant", said Scott.

"But he's nothing more than a gangster", said Logan. "What can he contribute to us?"

"Absolutely nothing", laughed Scott. "Xavier's just being the Good Samaritan he is and trying to help every mutant in New York".

"Figures", said Logan. He then looked at Marie and saw the sad, miserable face she had on since the incident at Alkali Lake.

"What is it", asked Logan. "You've been this way since Alkali Lake. What happened there that's upsetting you? You never did any of the fighting".

"Exactly", said Marie. "I could've saved Jean." Scott then gave her a dirty look and she stopped talking. Ever since the loss of Jean Grey, Scott had been a very different person. He got real mad when anyone talked about Jean Grey. He was also very gloomy all the time, and never talked to anyone unless they talked to him. She knew it must be hard to loose the love of her life. Just imagining Bobby having the same fate as Jean made her spine chill and her blood run as cold as a stream on the North Pole.

"KURT!" yelled Scott. Marie then turned around and saw Kurt lying on the ground covered in blood. As she walked closer she could see that the bleeding was caused by several slashes across his body.
"WHERE ARE THEY?!" yelled Scott.

"B.by Broadway", mumbled Kurt. "There are e..e..eight of them."

"Who did this to you?" asked Logan.

"The red one", said Kurt. "Beware the r.r.red one". Then dropped dead on the ground. Marie hadn't known Kurt for very long, and the only time she saw him was when they went to Alkali Lake together, and even then she didn't see

"Broadway is a long walk from here", said Scott. "It's about an hour or two from here. And it must've taken Nightcrawler at least twenty minutes to get there, so this happened a while ago. We have no chance of stopping them".

"We have one", said Logan. He then ran out into the street and wasn't seen for a minute. He then came back driving a green Hummer and stopping it in front of the two.

"Get in", said Logan. The two then got in and fastened their seat belts."

"How did you get this car?" asked Scott.

"Why do you give a damn?" asked Logan. Logan then drove off to avenge the X-Men's latest casualty.

Victor Creed, otherwise known as Sabretooth, was battling his enemy when the world then went blank and he realized that he was in New York City. But he actually wasn't in New York City, since New York City had been ravaged by Sentinels in 1997 and then rebuilt by Victor Von Doom. But this city showed no sign of Sentinel attack or any other kind of attack. It seemed to be perfectly intact. But this was impossible, unless they went to another dimension. But that was impossible too. But Deadpool was gone during the battle, maybe he had.

"DIE!" yelled Deadpool. Victor then turned around and saw Wade shooting at someone with one of his laser cannons. But that someone seemed to teleport each time he was shot as, but Wade finally used his personal transportation unit to catch up with the guy. Wade finally was able to get a shot at the man (who had strange blue skin and a tail) and hit him in the leg. Wade then unsheathed his swords and started slicing at the blue man.

"NO!" yelled Dr. Doom, but it was too late. By the fifth time he was slashed, the blue man teleported away and all that was left was a puddle of blood. Everyone then ran up to see what happened (including Captain America and his team).

"MURDERERS!" yelled Thor. "THY SHALL FIGHT THEE MURDERERS!" Everyone then drew their weapons and started to fight each other once again. The two groups then clashed with each other and the fighting began. Victor's animal instincts kicked in and he just lunged for the nearest enemy. Every few minutes he would lunge from one enemy to another, trying to kill each one but was unsuccessful at each attempt. After a few minutes, the police came but Wade took care of them easily. They even brought in helicopters and armored tanks, but Wade also destroyed them. After half an hour of fighting, thought, the strangest thing ever happened. A green Hummer zoomed into the battlefield and three people came out. One had claws on each of his hands, the other had lasers coming out of his hands, and the other didn't seem to do anything special. The clawed man immediately lunged at Victor and put his claws up to his throat.

"You're supposed to be dead", growled the clawed man.

"What the hell are you talking about?" Victor said as he pushed the clawed man away.

"I killed you at Liberty Island", said the clawed man.

"There's no such thing as a 'Liberty Island'", said Victor. "YOU LIE!" The clawed man then prepared to charge for him but was interrupted when Hawkeye launched an arrow into his side. Victor then ran over to Dr. Doom, who taking a break from all the fighting.

"There's something I need to tell you", said Victor.

"WHAT?" yelled Doom.

"I don't think we're in the right universe", said Victor. "The clawed man said he killed me on some 'Liberty Island'."

"But how do you know he's telling the truth?" asked Doom.

"Just look at the buildings", said Victor. "No sign of Sentinel attack or anything". Doom then looked at the buildings and saw that they were perfectly intact. He then realized that for once in his life, Victor Creed might be telling the truth.

"FALL BACK!" yelled Doom. "FOLLOW ME!" Doom then ran off in the distance and the rest of his group followed. Hawkeye shot at the group, but Captain America stopped him.

"Don't shoot", said the Captain. "Let them command their own fates. I don't think they will last more than a week in the city". Even though it seemed impossible, the Captain would soon find out that he was right.
