The next day Olivia woke up in the bed alone as she noticed that Erik was absent and she grabbed a robe that he left on the chair and made her way towards to her room and found Charles sitting on her bed as he looked up at her
"Where were you last night?" Charles questioned as Olivia debated lying at first but she knew Charles could read her mind, she tried reading her mind but he was blocking her out.
"Well?" He questioned again as Olivia just shrugged at him "I was having a sleepover with Raven" She said as Charles raised an eyebrow at her
"Really? Cause I went to Raven's room, I went to everyone's room looking for you because I wanted to tell you something but I found you and Erik in his room" He said as Olivia could sense Charles wasn't pleased with her, he was angry.
"Yeah I was with Erik" She admitted as Charles sighed and got up "Olivia, I know you mean well and think Erik is a good guy but listen to me.. Erik just wants revenge and wants to take down Shaw, please stay away from him" Charles said almost pleading but Olivia shook her head as she went through her drawers and grabbed a few things before getting ready to shower but not before looking at Charles
"You don't know Erik like I do, he's a very great guy and he's misunderstood.. He doesn't know what it's like for someone to truly care for him until now, I finally found a man that likes me for who I am.. I had to read other men's minds before knowing they were just using me but I don't have to read Erik's mind to know what he wants.." She said as she bounded to the shower and looked back at Charles
"What did you wanna tell me Charlie?" She asked and he looked distracted before shaking his head at her "I just wanted to tell you I've got your back for today" He lied as he had a fake smile and she smiled as she went towards him and went to kiss him on the cheek before thanking him and walking to the shower.
Once she got out of the shower she was greeted by Raven sitting on her bed now in a robe also as she had a smirk on her face and Olivia knew she was in trouble because she knew she had to tell Raven
"So I was greeted by a upset Charles last night and judging by your happiness and Erik's pretty decent mood something happened between you two last night and I think I know" Raven said as Olivia groaned as she was brushing her hair and listened to Raven
"You've done the deeds with Mr. Moody" Raven said as Olivia said nothing as Raven's smirk grew as she got up and stood next to her best friend
"Come on Oli, Don't lie to me" She said
"Fine" Olivia muttered as Raven started smiling wide as she wiggled her eyebrows at her
"So how was he?" She asked and Olivia was quiet for a moment before Olivia looked down
"He's good" She said quietly before Raven started cheering and Olivia laughed as she shook her head at the blonde woman "Don't tell anyone!" She hushed her friend as Raven stopped
"Trust me, I've been trying to give Hank some hints but he's ignoring them" Raven said sadly as Olivia frowned "Why?"
"He's been just working on making us normal.. I went to him last night and he offered me something but I couldn't.. I guess I just have to accept who I am" She whispered before Olivia brought her into a hug
"You know I'll always love ya Raven, no matter who and what you do" She told her as Raven smiled brightly and she got up and looked at Olivia
"Well today is the day, let's make this one good" She said as she hugged Olivia and she went back to her room to change as Olivia braided her hair before making her way downstairs and saw Alex, Cassidy and Moira sitting down eating breakfast, Charles was preparing a bowl of oatmeal while Erik had just finished breakfast and was sipping on some coffee and reading the newspaper. Olivia was making her breakfast and she sat down near Erik as she smiled slyly and he winked at her
After breakfast the crew decided to make their way to the lab that Hank made in the house and looked on the front door, Hank telling them to meet them at the air strip and their uniforms were inside.
Once they opened the door, Olivia looked around as the place was completely destroyed "Hank has been busy." Erik noted as the group looked around until they found a box and found the uniforms and what everyone needed as Cassidy whined "Do we really have to wear these?" He asked as Charles nodded
"As none of mutated to endure extreme G-force or being riddled by bullets, I suggest we suit up." He said as he took out each and every uniform part and Olivia placed on her gloves as she allowed a ball of flame coming out before closing her hand and looked back and saw Erik in his uniform. He smiled and made his way towards her
"Despite the ugly coloring, you still look beautiful" He whispered as he kissed her forehead and she smiled as they leaned in and kissed each other softly before getting an aw by Alex and Cassidy, an annoyed glare by Charles and a fake throwing up by Raven and a smile from Moira.
"Let's go find Hank" Charles said
"Where's Hank?" Raven asked as the group was looking around the air strip, Olivia was getting more worried that the later that Hank comes.. They may be too late in stopping Shaw and preventing World War Three.
"I'm here" A voice said as they saw a figure coming their way, instead of seeing Hank as a human like they've saw in the past.. They saw a blue beast making his way towards them, Olivia wasn't frighten as her teammates, instead of looking away or being scared she gave Hank a soft smile of support as Hank breathed in noticing his team-mates were looking at him
"It didn't attack the cells. It enhanced them. It didn't work." Hank said disappointed with himself as Olivia frowned and placed a hand on his now fluffy arm, he growled for a moment but saw it was Olivia as his eyes soften when he looked at Raven
"Yes it did, Hank. Don't you see? This is who you were meant to be. This is you. No more hiding." Raven said as she smiled at Hank who just sighed but Erik's next words made Hank pissed off
"Never looked better, man."
Hank felt rage as he grabbed Erik's throat and lifted him into the air, strangling him.
"Hank!" Olivia said as she watched in horror as Alex and Cassidy jumped back as Charles went in front of Moira
"Hank! put him down immediately, please? Hank! Hank!" Charles called towards Hank as the blue beast sighed and dropped Erik who was trying to regain his breathing and he was on the floor as Olivia bend down
"Erik are you okay?" She questioned as Erik looked annoyed at Hank as he was coughing "I wasn't" He said but he kept coughing as Olivia helped him up and he smiled to her in thanks as they listened to Alex
"Even I gotta admit, you look pretty bad-ass. I think I got a new name for you.. Beast"
The group was in the place as Olivia was sitting next to Erik and Moira as they were flying past the boats as Beast shook his head
"It looks pretty messy over there" Beast remarked as Olivia noticed Charles was speaking into her mind
'Olivia, check into the Americans' head see if they're planning anything right now.. I'll stick with Soviet Union's" He said as Olivia nodded and she placed a finger on her head and started channeling her thoughts as she managed to take over the head of a soldier as Olivia saw nothing was wrong but Charles spoke out
"Everyone on the cargo ship is dead." He said as Olivia sighed and Erik shook his head "They have to be somewhere." He said as Olivia sighed and shook her head as Charles once went into the Russians' heads and all of a sudden a missile flew out and it was aiming at the jet as Beast had to fly down and it caused everyone on the ship to scream as Erik placed his arm in front of Olivia making sure she didn't get out of her seat even though she was buckled as Charles and Cassidy were hanging on to Raven
'Charlie I wanna slap you!' Olivia scolded to Charles as Charles had to fight back a chuckle and The Beast looked annoyed "A little warning next time Professor"
"Sorry about that! Is everyone alright?" He asked as Cassidy looked frighten but nodded as Olivia was breathing in and out quickly as she placed a hand on Erik's as he took it and squeezed it as he went to intertwined their fingers together.
"That was inspired Charles" Moira said as Charles nodded "Thank you but I still can't locate Shaw"
"He's down there, we need to find him now" Erik said as Olivia tried to ignore the tone of his voice.. How he was full of rage and hatred
"Hank?"
"Is there anything unusual with the radar or scanners?" Hank asked Moira as she shook her head and Hank sighed "He must be underwater and sadly we don't have sonar" He said as Cassidy suddenly looked up "Yes we do!"
"We do!" Charles said as Cassidy, Charles, Erik and Olivia unbuckled their seatbelts and got up and Hank had a huge smile on his face as he was glad this was working.. Their team was together.
Everyone made their way to back of the plane as Olivia was slipping on her gloves and Charles stopped her "What are you doing?"
"Cassidy is gonna need some help if anything and if we find him, I can help lift him up with the tidal waves" Olivia explained as Charles shook his head at her
"I won't let you do this" He said as Olivia frowned and went to her best friend "Charles you can't protect me forever, Let me help" She said as Erik went towards her looked at her "You can do this, just go out there and kick some butt" Erik encouraged and soon Charles sighed and nodded "You can do it, be careful" He said as Charles went over to Cassidy to speak to him and soon they were ready as Erik went towards the group as Cassidy pointed his finger at Erik
"Woah you back off" He said as Olivia chuckled, she remembered Alex telling her the tale of Erik pushing Cassidy off the satellite as Erik smiled and raised his hands at Cassidy as the teenager asked Beast to open the back door and soon it was open.
"Remember! This is a muscle, you'll be in here the whole time" Charles said as the wind was roaring as he was speaking to Cassidy as he turned to Olivia
"Oli, you find whatever Shaw is in and you bring it up.. Remember to let go and relax.. I'll be in your head also" Charles reminded her as Olivia nodded at her best friend and soon Erik turned Olivia and leaned in and kissed her softly "If you need the back-up you tell me and I'll come after you" Erik said as Olivia nodded and she looked at Cassidy
"Stay with me when you're in the water, keep your mind open for me as well so I'll know when you locate it and get far away from me so I can start the wave."
"On Three, You two jump!"

Cassidy cheered as he jumped out while Olivia decided to dive and Cassidy using his power as he dove into the water and soon Olivia waved her hand and the water caught her as she was in the water and saw Cassidy in front of her
'Now!' She commanded as Cassidy made a sonar noise and the two watched as the noise went forward and located the submarine as Cassidy let both telepathics know it was located as he nodded to Olivia as she created an aqua jet for Cassidy to go far away as she started creating a wave bringing the submarine closer to her
'Charles tell Erik to get ready to rise the submarine, I'll create something to help hold it up' She told Charles as she got an okay from him as she sensed Erik was trying to lift the submarine as she poked into his mind as Charles was speaking to him, encouraging him and she knew she could help as well
'You can do it Erik, I believe in you.. Think of the happy times' She whispered into his mind and she felt him calm before she saw the submarine lifting into the air and she created an aqua jet to shoot herself up as she was now in the air with the water holding her up as she created a huge water way to help Erik keep the submarine up and soon one of Shaw's men came out and he looked pissed as he created a tornado and started directing it towards Erik and the Ship as Olivia tried her best to help keep the submarine up and she wanted to help by using air to help decrease the tornado but she couldn't control both elements at the same time but she couldn't hold the ship and neither could Erik as the ship dropped on a nearby island and Olivia dropped back into the water as she quickly swam her way to the island when she saw her team-mates also crashing into the same island as she ran towards the plane
"Guys!" She screamed as she went into ship and saw everyone was fine as she went to hug Raven and Alex quickly before going towards Charles and hugging him tight "Are you okay Charlie?" She asked as he nodded as he kissed her forehead and she went towards Erik as he brought her into a super tight hug and he kissed her softly before he looked at her
"I'm so proud of you, doing that thing to help me.. To help me, it means a lot" He whispered as she smiled softly as Charles started ordering people around telling Havoc and Beast to help Erik as Raven and Olivia were ready to get out and Charles yelled
"Raven, Olivia stop!"
"But we want to help" Raven said as Charles shook his head at the two girls "You two guard the front and don't let anything in your way" He said as Olivia frowned and watched as Erik tore the metal and hopped inside the submarine and Olivia made her way next to Charles as she opened her mind up to Erik as she was listening to Charles and she was hearing Erik was at the end of the submarine as Charles tried contacting him but Erik was ignoring him
"He's got into the void!"
"What?" Moira asked as Raven looked confused as Olivia tried tapping in 'Erik can you hear me, Erik!'
"We have to help" Raven said as Olivia looked at Charles "If you don't let me go, Erik might die" She said as all of a sudden there was a crack and Olivia and Charles heard Erik's mind
"He's back!" Charles said as Olivia tapped into his mind 'Erik do whatever you're doing, Charles can help you.. Do it" She said as soon there were more cracks and Charles and Olivia's connection with Erik was stronger and stronger
"I can see him but I can't touch his mind" Charles said as Beast was in trouble and Olivia looked at Raven who ran towards Beast to help him.
'Come on Erik, you can fight him.. Ignore Shaw!' Olivia said as she saw Erik's mind.. He was doubting himself for a few moments and saw himself for who he was.. He was broken..
But she saw the rage in his mind again..
"Charles!" Olivia panicked as Charles "Erik no! Erik!"
"Erik No! Come back to me, don't do this!" Olivia shouted but Erik couldn't hear him as she punched the steel wall in frustration as she went towards the entrance but she heard Charles screaming as she ran towards her best friend and held him as he was screaming.. He was connected to Shaw and She knew something bad was happening to Shaw as when they were children when Charles was connected to Olivia, when she fell out of the tree and broke her arm, Charles was crying also feeling her pain.
"Charles!" She said as held her best friend as she felt anger as this was happening to her best friend and she looked at Moira "Contact the Americas, try to get us out of here!" She said as Moira frowned "I've been trying!"
Author's Note:
So Shaw is dead, and now Erik is evil.
Next Chapter:
Olivia makes a choice that will leave either Charles or Erik heartbroken as she has to choose whose side she will stay with.
Olivia does something no one can think she could do.
The Aftermath.
Yes Quicksilver will still be Erik's son no matter what, this story will stay canon and stay original as it can but with slight changes as Raven and Erik didn't hook up and it was Erik and Olivia who did, and I would address any big changes after the chapter.
Leave reviews! It means a lot.
The next chapter will be short since it's just Erik's speech, The aftermath of Charles being shot and Erik's Brotherhood forming.
I wanted to put Olivia out there fighting but it would seem almost OOC of Charles since he didn't let Raven fight but would let Olivia fight.
