Chapter 6: Sins Against God – Magneto P.O.V.
"The time is now, let's go," I said, and we started to storm the mansion. It was in the dead of the night, so hopefully we wouldn't set off as many alarms. Wanda had disabled the front gate alarms. I brought my Acolytes along with Scarlet Witch. Scarlet Witch was becoming a very helpful teammate in the games with the Xmen. She helped us with the Xmen almost all the time. I was excited to meet these new mutants Xavier had captured. Perhaps they would help us in our cause. If not, they could wreak mayhem in their own way.
The game plan was to set off the alarms for the Xmen to go and get my acolytes, while I directed Quicksilver and Scarlet Witch would go and fetch the three mutants with me. We waited a few minutes and heard alarms go off on the other side of the mansion. There were defense mechanisms that came out and saw us, but Wanda disabled them very quickly. We entered through a side door of the mansion and we went down to the basement. It was becoming extremely difficult to dodge security. But we were so close to getting the prisoners out.
We found them and I released them from their liquid encasements,
"Where are we?" the scarred man asked taking in his surroundings,
"No! LUST! WE'RE ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE GATE!" the green spiky haired girl said,
"That's not possible is it, Envy? I did not see the gate coming here. I thought I saw some other Homunculus pick us up, and then after that… it was a blur," the attractive girl said thinking from memory,
"Those people locked us up, so how did we get out?" they had failed to really take us into consideration, they were still confused about where they were,
"I freed you. Come with us, and we shall help you go back to where you came from,"
"Why should we trust you?" the scarred man asked, not really liking me,
"I am Magneto, if anyone can get you somewhere, it would probably be me. Besides, I can kill you if you decline," I hadn't planned on it, but, it would be a step taken if they declined,
"Yeah right, I could easily kill you, without any guilt," the scarred man said,
"Really?" I had zoomed a piece of metal right to his throat,
"Fine, I'll go, but realize my people are against witchcraft," but he touched the metal with his hand, and it was destroyed with a red glow, as if saying not to mess with him. The other two agreed and we left the room and started to leave, but some of the Xmen had seen us, I said quickly,
"No killing, not yet," they grumbled at me, but nodded as we left. Apparently my acolytes had not given us enough time, because the adult Xmen started to come at us. Envy charged at them and delayed them a few minutes. She caught up with us at inhuman speed as we ran. However, security was hard to get through, because we had to disable all of it.
The Xmen had caught up with us, and we were ready to attack, when Lust extended her fingers and put them right through Wolverines shoulder. He yelled in pain, but it would heal, like he always had. I then decided to pick up Wolverine's bones and body that went with it, and hurled him back at the Xmen. We were now on the ground level, when there were some new people were holding us up.
The boys metal arm changed into a spear as Envy was cursing him. The black haired adult looked tense, and the ripped guy did too. The brown haired man pulled out some sort of dagger object, and the suit of armor got into a fighters stance, while the blonde man ran for cover.
I pulled my hand out to stop the others, "Apparently you don't know who I am, do you?" they glanced at me, but were more concerned with the escapees, "Remember this, I am Magneto!" Anything metal I pulled upward. The armor, boy, spears, glasses, gauntlets, and a lighter went to the ceiling, not to mention a couple of pocket-watches.
Envy laughed and we proceeded to leave the mansion. However, the black haired man took a step forward, and snapped his fingers. To my surprise, flames came from nowhere, and I had to defend myself along with the others. In the chaos, the boy clapped his hands and touched the ceiling, and a few giant stone hands came out of the floor and the three escapees went flying.
I glared at the group, and urged the others to leave, before I got really angry. After all, almost anybody can be persuaded to join my group. Whether it's values or threats, it happens, and I admired that group of people back there. They were brave, and they weren't even mutants, they used alchemy, the ancient science. I needed to look into this, because they can cause great ruin that I cannot.
Later on at the Mansion after Magneto's Leave – Wolverine's P.O.V.
"How the hell did we let them escape?" I asked myself with rage. The blood had stopped in almost in no time,
"Don't feel so bad, they're homunculi. You can't just beat them with sheer power, because that would take you hours," Ed said,
"How's that possible if I just stab them?" I asked,
"That would kill one life they've consumed out of the hundreds they've eaten, good luck trying to bring them down. One stab would just make them angry. Their only true weakness we don't have, which is their remains," he said quietly,
"Explain this better to me, I still don't understand what a homunculi is," Xavier said ,
"Homunculi are sins against God. They're the result of an attempt to use alchemy to bring someone back from the dead,"
"I thought you said they were dolls," Beast stated,
"They are, but they have a will, and usually it's bent on evil. There's seven of them. They've named themselves after the seven deadly sins. You've met Envy and Lust, the other five are Gluttony, Pride, Greed, Wrath, and Sloth. I've destroyed Greed, so there's only six left. Luckily only two are here. Unfortunately, Envy would just love to gut us all,"
"Not only them, but you have Scar too. He's a deranged madman. He's been responsible for many killings," Hughes stated matter of factly, "there's been numerous reports around central."
"What's the game plan then?" Ed asked,
"We wait for the first move of Magneto, while we try to find a way for you," Xavier said,
"Along with our problems," Mustang commented not looking happy about it,
"We will try and help you with that, but you must help us with ours too. No doubt they will be one bigger problem together, then them both separate," Xavier said,
"But we are stronger
too. Not many of your people are ripped!" Armstrong said at the
same moment he ripped his shirt,
"We are going to have to find
another shirt…" Havoc mumbled.
Hey guys, sorry this is probably a horrendous chapter. I started it right after I wrote the previous chapter, and I tried to pick it up again, however, I can't even remember where I was going with it, so that's why it's so short, sorry!
