Part 8: Finding Allies

Earths orbit a domed structure, a high tech space station floated…inside a solitary figure walked down a corridor. He stopped and turned right "professor open screens…"

"As you wish." came a disembodied voice the walls receded to reveal a large window, which looked down on earth…

"Its beautiful isn't it professor. To see a world un-ravaged by apocalypse"

"You are correct Nathan it is beautiful which is why we're here."

"Yes we came back to save this to save these people to prevent the apocalypse from reaching the power necessary to create the hellish future I lived in…"

"So far we've been laying the groundwork."

"But now…now is the time to set things in motion the ascension is coming…" Nathan stood still and a hand went to his head hmmmm what's this? "Someone is calling me its ever so faint but it's also very, VERY focused so I can sense it…"

----------

The Xavier institute

A helicopter landed outside the mansion and Nick Fury got out and walked up to Xavier… "Heard about the recent attacks Xavier you need to upgrade your defences immensely "

"I know and I'm working on it colonel Fury"

"Okay now about your kidnappers the man with the cyborg hand matches the description of a mercenary by the name of Scalphunter… he's been logged as doing the dirty work for someone called sinister there are no pictures and no descriptions of his boss all that's known is this guy worked with hydra and aim to develop their cloning projects that's all I can give you."

"Also two of yours have gone missing in Boston."

"What? If your talking about…" said Xavier

"The elf and the windrider."

"Odessa and Michael they no longer want to be affiliated with the xmen."

"Well be that as it may they were seen in the vicinity of one of your old haunts the hellfire club they were able to circumvent the clubs security but soon after they disappeared off our radar there was an extremely focused lightning attack just before they disappeared off radar but that was it soon afterwards a third mutant we all know was seen entering and moments later x23 was gone as well."

"Does Wolverine know yet?"

"You're the first person I've told I'm telling him next."

Xavier nodded "I've called Wolverine to come and meet you. I must get back to searching for Cyclops," said Xavier as he made his way inside

"What did Fury want?" Asked Mr creed

"He says a man by the name of Mr sinister has Scott"

"Apocalypse horseman of death!" snarled Mr creed

"What do you mean Victor?"

"Take a look through my mind chuck see what you're dealing with!"

Xavier nodded and gasped as he was assailed by Mr creed's knowledge of the evil geneticist "Oh no…" gasped Xavier…

"If he's even marginally like the sinister I know we're talking trouble Xavier…big trouble."

----------

"You know Scott I've been part of your family for longer than you know…it was I who delivered your father and I delivered you and Alex."

"That's not true! Doctor Fenton delivered me and my brother!"

"That's my brother and I Scott being my prisoner is no excuse for bad grammar and as for doctor Fenton did he look like this?" Sinister turned into a balding middle-aged man wearing thick-rimmed glasses "hello Scottie how's that nasty stomach bug?"

"Nuh-nuh-no! No it can't be true!"

"Oh but it is! I've been grooming you Scott grooming you to be part of a glorious plan for the future…you see my boy long ago I was just a man of science who had lost his wife and child. But I had a latent x gene one of apocalypse's servants, a man known as ozymandis approached me and offered me power and knowledge for servitude to apocalypse I accepted the offer but soon I began to chafe under the restrictions apocalypse had put me under. I realised I didn't want to spend eternity serving his dream so I began to look for a way to break free, to that end I've been trying to create the perfect weapon to destroy apocalypse and I finally found the right sequence.

Your dna, coupled with that of ms Jean grey, the offspring you two would produce would grow to be unstoppable and would destroy apocalypse! 4 years ago I succeeded in creating my perfect weapon my son Nathan junior however I hadn't counted on interference from a rival scientist he stole my weapon and destroyed some irreplaceable cloning and gene manipulation technology… yes I still had cloning chambers but in comparison to the ones that were destroyed it was like comparing a stone tablet to a notepad pc"

"Oh well I'm guessing the combination was so complex you can't duplicate it…"

"You would be correct I can't duplicate it in my lab which is why I needed you."

"Don't you need both Jean and me? And jeans and Xavier will be on their guard!"

"Oh no I don't need Jean, you see I already have her!"

"What are you talking about…"

"When Jean was conceived I fed her mother a series of drugs which caused replication of the fertilised egg… and then at a suitable time I took one of the foetuses from the womb…"

Cyclops came face to face with a girl identical to Jean grey. "Scott… meet Madalyne Pryor…jeans twin…identical in every way!"

"What are you going to do?"

"What am I going to do? Why I'm going to have you mate with her and reproduce. So I get my weapon back!"

"I wont do it!"

"My dear sweet Scott you have no choice in the matter… unlike your Jean grey Madelyne has been trained to use her telepathy much better than Jean she'll make you do what ever I wish…"

"No…said Cyclops struggling as Madelyne approached the bed…noooooooo!"

----------

Odessa opened her eyes to find herself chained to a wall. She cursed her stupidity she had rushed into the hellfire club without no plan no strategy like a complete rookie and Michael had been taken by the enemy she had been careless absolutely careless and now she was Bogan's prisoner she looked across to see a familiar face. "How you doing x?"

"You…you look familiar like the wind lady…you smell like her too"

"I'm Odessa I'm her sister or to be more blunt her clone"

"You're a clone? Did hydra create you?"

"No I was created by a freak accident…"

"Oh… what are you doing here?"

"I came to rescue a girl called Tessa"

"You're here for Tessa too? Tessa helped me escape some hydra agents a while back. Why do you want to help her?"

"It's a long story but the short end is I have the memories of an alternate storm who was an ally of Tessa's and when I saw the mark of Bogan on a creep in New York I knew that if Bogan was around there was a possibility he would have Tessa so I came here but I didn't think it through they took control of my friend and captured me…how did you get captured?"

"Came in and attacked Shaw made him tell me what he'd done with her and then that witch Selene attacked me and the next thing I know I'm here… "

Odessa nodded she closed her eyes and sighed, "I'm cut off from my powers… guess I'll have to use plan b."

"Plan b?"

Odessa just grinned she pulled on the chains and reached into her hair and pulled out two thin metal picks… and then started to manoeuvre them into the locks of her shackles…

----------

"Wolverine you can't be serious!"

"I'm deadly serious Charles. X is the closest thing I have to a kid I gotta get her out of there, and Odessa and Michael are for all intents and purposes Kurt and Ororo's siblings."

"But…"

"Charles what is it?"

"Its because Charles here has an idea of what's in the hellfire club after all he was the white king "

"What? You used to hang with these mooks!"

"When I was a young man and I still had use of my legs I joined the hellfire club I and was introduced to the inner circle. The inner circle was a bunch of young mutants looking to get mutants into positions of power it was a good time back then. But things went sour and I decided to quit."

"What happened is Charles was usurped by the current white king… Lex Luthor"

"The business man? But he's not a mutant!"

"No but he showed himself worthy of the inner circle."

Wolverine looked at Xavier "once again with the secrets…. But I haven't got time to dispute your secret I'm going in to get the kids and you're going to help me prepare for any surprises…"

"You can count me in said mister creed. "

"Ah yes, the cross dimensional immigrant." said Fury.

"Pray tell what do you mean by that?" Asked Mr creed

"Shield has you down as a dimensional jumper who has immigrated to this dimension I pushed the papers through myself otherwise we would have to have detained you indefinitely…"

"I'd like to see you try Fury…" muttered Mr creed with a grin.

"Truth be told you were giving the boys in strategy nightmares you're a more formidable opponent than our version of victor creed…"

"And just how would you know that?" asked Charles Xavier…

Fury grinned mischievously "I had some cadets hack your system after your hacker hacked ours…"

"That was Odessa's doing I did not give her permission to do that… and just how much did you steal from our system?" Snapped Xavier

"Steal is such a harsh word…"

----------

"Neat trick." muttered x23

"Why thank you!" said Odessa bashfully "now then lets see if we can find Tessa she may know how to beat Bogan…"

"What about the guards?"

"Simple they get in our way we mow them down." Odessa pried the door open and looked round there was no sign of guards she made her way out followed by x23… "Yo, X! Your keen sense of smell catch Tessa's scent?"

"I have it she's this way!" said x23 she started to run Odessa followed behind suddenly x23 stopped and unsheathed her claws "we got company." she said softly

Odessa nodded "I hear them." She said. "X you can take colder temperatures than the average human right?"

"Sure… why do you ask?"

"Its about to get cold down!" here Odessa raised her hands and generated an ice storm "come on that'll keep going without my supervision for another ten minutes"

X23 nodded and lead Odessa through the ice storm to a set of doors.

"Well then I guess this is it,". She said, "Her scent comes from in there." Odessa nodded and unleashed a lightning blast which tore the door of its hinges inside they found a girl all bloody and battered…

"Oh Tessa what have the done to you!" said Odessa choking back a sob

"He c-c-couldn't br-br-break m-m-m-m-m-m-e." said Tessa weakly

"Not for the lack of trying Tessa" came Bogan's voice from all around the trio "I mean what does it take? Your will is worse than Odessa and Wolverine lite! Well at least you'll wear my brand for the rest of your short life. And Odessa you really are extremely resourceful but alas your more trouble than your worth which is why I'm going to have to dispose of you…"

"Why don't you say that to our faces we'll see who gets disposed off!" Snarled x23

"Oh my little savage! Wolverine would be so proud of course I don't get my hands dirty, that's what I have my pets for!" Out of the shadows materialised Michael, Emma frost, Sebastian Shaw and a woman completely covered from head to toe in shadows "now then my pets, destroy them!"

Suddenly there was a tremendous flash of light and a tall white haired man with a glowing eye stood between Odessa, x23, Tessa and Bogan's mind slaves "Can't let you do that Bogan…"

"It worked." Murmured Ororo with a hint of relief. "Hey Bogan you didn't think I'd come back without some backup did you?"

"Who's that?" Asked x23

"Yesss just who are you stranger?"

"I've been called many things over the years but you can call me cable! Odessa here focused her thoughts on me and I was able to pick them up through your field of interference and tracked her here…" And with that cable leapt at Bogan's slaves…
