After the murder of the congressmen and abduction of President Kelly and Charles Xavier, Creed was getting ready to hold a speech at the White House.
"Get me in front of every camera you can get a hold of." Creed said "This must be spread across the entire world."
"Yes sir, Mr. Creed." One of his assistants said. Then he marched outside the White House in front of hundreds of spectators who heard of what went down earlier. Every news station was tuned in to the press conference and at the mansion several X-men was gathered around the TV to hear what was happening.
"What's going on?" Jubilee asked concerned.
"I'm not sure." Scott said then Creed got up to the podium and started speaking.
"My fellow American's" he started. "I am sad to report to you a horrible tragedy. Right before The Mutants rights law was signed a mutant came in and shot down the Congressmen and President Kelly." The whole crowd in attendance just gasped when they heard that.
"What!" Rogue screamed out in disbelief.
"This isn't going to end pretty" Angel said
"I tried my hardest to save poor President Kelly. But sadly he died in my arms. And Xavier that traitor escaped with the mutant that shot the place up." Creed said acting as if he was about to tear up. "But before he died he appointed me as the new President of the United States and as President I will make sure his death will be avenged! And I tend to do that by raging roar on those filthy mutants!" The crowd roared when he mentioned that.
"We will release Sentinels to hunt the mutants down and send them to special concentration camps." He said as the Sentinels were being turned on and flying out the building to track down mutants.
"They will track down the mutants! Capture them and then punish them properly." He said as we see Mutants running but being captured and carried off by the Sentinels.
"Wherever the mutants hide it doesn't matter they will be captured and they will be punished." Then his speech ended and he walked away to the sounds of a cheering crowd. The X-men just stood frozen in shock, fear and disbelief not knowing what to do.
"What are we going to do Scott?" Jean asked
"To be honest I have no idea." Scott said
"That little punk is lying!" Jubilee said upset at the situation "Xavier wouldn't turn traitor and allow that that to happen then run off. And Kelly sure as hell wouldn't put that bozo in charge."
"I know that Jubilee." Scott said "The best thing we can do for now is try to stay low and out of sight till we can figure out some way to dig up the truth and stop this war."
"But you heard what that little asshole on TV said. He done has a whole army of those giant tin cans ready to hunt us down. It is only a matter of time before they track us down." Gambit said
"I know that Remy thank you." Scott said "And we will be ready for them when they do come after us. We will get to the bottom of this and we will stop those Sentinels and we will find out what that Creed guy is hiding but for now we got to be smart and not rush into this blindly. This is war and we got to be prepared."
Meanwhile on the other side of New York, Deadpool was in the woods looking for clues that could lead him to Creed. Only problem was he wasn't doing so good finding him and was starting to get bored.
"Well I've been searching for a good five minutes I think I'm going to stop and have myself a snack." He said to himself then he sat down on a rock and pulled out a granola bar from his pocket, unknown to him however was that while he was eating a Sentinel had spotted him.
"Mutant spotted, begin capture." The Sentinel said. Deadpool heard the sound and turned around and saw the Sentinel.
"Hey that's what I've been needing, oversized garbage can." Deadpool said "Hear take this granola wrapper will you buddy I'm done with it." The Sentinel though didn't listen and blasted him and through him into a tree. Deadpool just got up and took out some swords.
"Oh so you want to play rough do you?" he said "That's ok cause I like to play rough too" Then he charged the sentinel. The sentinel shot a cord at him trying to capture him but Deadpool just sliced through it with his sword then ran right between the sentinel's legs.
"Sentinel must capture mutant for headmaster." Then it started shooting at Deadpool again. Deadpool jumped up into a tree as a mean to get a better shot at the sentinel. He started climbing to the top of the tree but just before he was able to leap at the sentinel it blasted a shot at the tree forcing Deadpool to leap to another tree. The sentinel blasted at that tree as well causing Deadpool to jump to the other one.
"Ok this is starting to get a little ridiculous, time to end this party" Deadpool said then he leaped at the sentinel and landed on the head of the machine and took out a grenade.
"Here buddy I got a present for you." He said then he stuck the grenade on him with some gel and leaped off it just as the grenade exploded, blowing up the sentinel.
"And that's Deadpool 1 other guys 0. Thanks for joining us ladies and gents and please drive home safely." Deadpool said in a sport announcer's voice. Then he walked over to the head of the sentinel which was laying on the ground and took out his smartphone and took a picture of himself with it.
"This is so going on Twitter." He said posting it on Twitter with the hash tag #Victory.
"Oh look Wolverine's applied to it." Deadpool noticed then he read the reply.
" Deadpool_is_awesome Get back to the damn assignment!" He read. "Well can't argue with that." Then Deadpool put his phone up and went back to searching for Creed and his men.
Meanwhile at an unknown building at an unknown location Xavier and Kelly was chained to a wall when Creed walked in with an evil grin on his face.
"Well hello there President Kelly." He laughed
"You're never going to get away with this Creed my staff will come looking for me and once they find out what you have done you're going away for life!"
"Oh Mr. President I assure you nobody is coming to look for you. You see I told everyone that you died at the hands of that filthy mutant."
"No." Kelly gasped.
"And now I am the new President and have started a war to wipe out the filthy mutants from existence to avenge your death."
"You monster you have started an unjust war!" Kelly screamed
"Oh it's just all right, it's the most just war ever to be put in motion I am finally doing what you refused to do. And don't worry Mr. President your name will be remembered fondly by the country but for us the friends of humanity? Well we still need to make sure you don't get away with your treachery."
"What the hell are you talking about?" Kelly growled
"For betraying the humans and nearly letting the mutants run free you will be tried for treason and be kept in this holding cell for the rest of your days.
"We can live together peacefully not all mutants are evil I've seen that personally!" Kelly screamed
"You're lying!" Creed shot back "They're evil all of them! They are only good when dead!" Then Creed turned to Xavier.
"And as for you, the only reason you are still alive is because you are going to help us track down your mutant friends."
"I will never help you." Xavier said
"Oh but you will. See you have no choice." Then he had some men come in with a replica of Cerebro. "You see Xavier we are quite aware of your telepathic ability and we know you contact a lot of mutants through a machine like this. You are going to lure every known mutant into an awaiting trap."
"No" Xavier gasped as they put the helmet on.
"Now let's see whose first. Then they hooked the machine up and searched through the mutants before stopping on Jubilee at the X mansion.
"Well looks like we got a winner. Send the Sentinels and prepare them for an ambush."
"No" Xavier gasped as Creed walked over to him
"Now Xavier, lure her into the trap" Then he forced him to contact her.
