Author's Note: Hey guys, sorry if this chapter was really weird cause I was trying to go with the movie kind of, also I don't own X-Men.

Previously: They walked side by side back up to the mansion, hungry from the chase.

'thoughts'

The next morning, Axel walked down stairs into the kitchen but stopped as he heard Charles and Erik arguing in one of the yards.

"Come on Charles, you know that I can deflect it," Erik huffed.

"If you know that then you aren't challenging yourself," Charles sighed, "W-Whatever happened to the man that was trying to raise a submarine?"

"Wh... I can't," Erik replied, grasping the gun that Charles handed back to him, "Something that big I need the situation, the anger."

"No, the anger isn't enough," he replied.

"well it's gotten the job done all this time," Erik sighed.

"It's almost gotten you killed all this time," Charles huffed.

"Come here," Charles replied as he ran to the other side of the yard, Erik following him and Axel hiding in the shadows also following them.

"Let's try something a little more challenging," Charles said with a light chuckle.

"See that?" Charles asked as he looked over at the satellite in the distance.

"Try turning it to face us," he continued as Axel moved closer in the trees.

Erik looked at Charles, who nodded, before looking back at the satellite. He spread out his hands and concentrated on the large building, panting and shaking before almost collapsing.

"You know, I believe that power is somewhere between rage and serenity... Would you mind if I," Charles trailed off as he wiggled his fingers near his temple.

Axel watched in curiosity as Charles went into Erik's mind before Erik turned back towards the large structure. He rose one hand with tears in his eyes and slowly but surely the satellite turned to face them. Erik and Charles chuckled as Axel smiled in the trees but they stopped as Moira leaned out the window to get their attention.

Axel watched as Alex and Charles set up the nuclear bunker and changed it into a practice range for Alex.

"Now, Whenever you're ready," Charles replied as he shut the doors.

The green light turned red as he opened the doors, "Oh my god..."

He and Axel rushed into the room and started to extinguish all of the flames that scorched the walls.

"I will teach you how to control this Alex," Charles said.

Axel sighed but yelped as the flames licked at his pants, sputtering slightly as Charles hit him with extinguishing foam.

Axel winced as he heard Sean's screech from the courtyard, he rushed over to the window to see Sean, Erik, and Charles standing in front of what used to be a window pane.

He sighed as he walked back into the room, flopping on the bed and falling asleep.

The next time he saw Sean, the teen was about to jump out of the window and land with nothing but soundwaves.

"Now remember, scream as hard as you can," Charles said as Sean sat on the window sill.

Axel snorted but leaned on the window sill, wondering if this was going to work along with Raven, Alex, and Erik.

"Remember, they have to be supersonic, catch them at the right angle and they should carry you," Hank said.

"They should carry me... That's reassuring," Sean replied nervously.

"Good luck... And don't forget to scream!" Charles said encouraging.

Axel and everyone else were on the edge of the window, but he laughed as he just screamed like a girl as he fell off the window.

Axel watched from one of the windows as Charles and Hank raced around the mansion.

"Come on Hank, now if you want to beat me this time, you have to set the beast free," Charles said as Hank took off his shoes.

Axel frowned at that statement before leaning back inside and going back to his work out with Raven.

He gasped as the weight was lifted out of his hands along with Raven's weight and Erik walked in the doorway, "If you're only half concentrating on looking normal then you're only half concentrating on whatever else is around you... Just pointing out something that could save your life."

Erik looked above Raven and let the weight drop but she caught it and shifted back into her blue form.

Axel huffed confused before walking out of the room, wondering when he should tell them what he is.

A few weeks later, Axel went with Sean, Erik, Hank, and Charles up to the top of the satellite for a test flight.

"Do you really think I'll fly this time?" Sean asked as he looked at Charles.

"No doubts," Charles said.

"I trust you," Sean replied.

"I'm touched," Charles nodded.

"I don't trust him," Sean said as he pointed to Hank.

"Say nothing," Charles said to Hank who huffed.

I'm gonna die!" Sean replied as he ran his hands through his hair.

"Alright, we won't make you do anything you d-" Charles started but was cut off by Erik.

"Let me help," Erik said before pushing Sean off of the satellite.

"ERIK!" Charles shouted in outrage as they all rushed to the railing, watching Sean fall.

"AHHH!" Sean shouted which turned into a supersonic shout and carried him in the air, "Woohoo!"

"What? You know you were thinking the same," Erik said with a smirk as Axel snickered in the corner.

Hank was placing black electrical tape on a manikin which was in the bunker where Alex, Charles, Hank, and Axel were.

"Thank you Hank, now Alex, I want you to hit the X and try not to hit me, there's a good chap," Charles said as he stood up straight.

"You're serious?" Alex said with a shocked look.

"I'm very serious Alex, I have complete and utter faith in you," Charles replied as Hank and Axel moved away from both him and the manikin slightly.

Axel, Hank, and Charles dove to the side as the beam of energy landed straight on the manikin.

"Am I still a bozo?" Hank asked down the bunker.

"Yes Hank, you're still a bozo," Alex replied as Axel laughed, "But nice job."

Moira rounded everyone up and they all sat down in the living room to watch the president's address.

"That's where we're going to find Shaw," Erik said, half way through the address.

"How do you know?" Axel asked as he looked at him from the corner.

"Two superpowers facing off and he wants to start World War III, he won't leave anything to chance," Charles replied, drawing everyone's attention.

"So much for diplomacy, I suggest you all get a good night sleep," Erik said as he walked out of the room.

Axel sighed before walking out too and going towards his room, only to be stopped by Erik, "What is your mutation? You never answered me Axel."

Axel shivered as Erik pressed him against the wall, trying to look for a way out, "I-It's nothing."

"It's not nothing, tell me," Erik demanded, pinning him to the wall.

Axel struggled and growled at him, "Get off of me!"

"Tell me and I will," Erik replied calmly, not realizing that he was playing with fire.

Axel's eyes glowed before he smashed him in the wall across from him, "I said get off!"

Erik grunted as his back hit the wall hard, sliding to the floor as Axel looked at him in horror, "I-I'm sorry... I didn't mean to."

He heard a gasp come from the doorway that they came from and snapped his head towards the noise only to see everyone looking at him in shock.

He looked back at Erik's prone form only to see blood flowing slowly from the back of his head as he groaned, "No, I'm sorry..."

Charles rushed over to Erik as Raven breathed out in shock, "What have you done?"

Axel backed up before rushing out of the mansion into the surrounding forest, guilt and horror stuck in his mind as the image of Erik kept replaying in his mind.

'I'm sorry...'
