With an Iron Fist – part 1
New York City; the United States capital city on an alternate Earth. This reality is unlike any other. The planet has known plagues, wars, famine and natural catastrophes beyond imagination. However, in the time of Earth’s greatest weakness a leader arose, who brought everything under control. A huge building dwarfs every other in the city, even the World Trade Center. In the top floor, a lone figure stands by the window, gazing at the city below, wearing a red and gold armor with a green cape. It is Tony Stark, Iron Man. Not only is he the President of the United States, and President for life as part of an emergency edict some ten years ago, he is also the undisputed monarch of Earth.
Stark thinks about how he came to power. It was a long and agonizing road but, in the end, nearly every living being on Earth begged and prayed for him to take over. He only did so slowly, with great reluctance and a heavy heart. Only few people knew that this was what he had planned from the start. If one wants to remain in control, he does not take a planet by force, but waits until he is given control. An individual can rise up in a time of great weakness. All he had to do was to make sure that the world was weak enough. Tony Stark spent his entire life planning and scheming until the time was right. In no time, Stark Industries had an economic stranglehold over the globe, but as he never tightened that grib, the people would never know.
(flashbacks to the past decades)
Iron Man entered the world theater when the Mutant War began. United around Magneto, an army of mutants launched an unwavering attack on humanity, which pitted every super being on Earth against the mutants. The United States saw acts of terrorism like never conceived before. Many lives were lost on both sides, but what none but a selected few knew was who had provided Magneto with the necessary funding for his army – it was Iron Man. Through the Mutant War, he had succeeded in thinning out the world’s super-being population. Afterwards, he and Magneto secretly met, as the master of magnetism had promised Iron Man leadership of the remaining vestiges of humanity. That was indeed the role he had wanted, but not in the manner in which it was granted. Tony Stark did not want to be anyone’s underlings and he killed Magneto while their battle was recorded by cameras. Slaying the evil mutant while millions watched on, Iron Man became a hero; but a soldier does not make a great leader.
Stark’s ascension truly began with the Great Famine that ripped the world apart somewhat later. A powerful virus similar to the Mad Cow Disease, seized the entire meat, pork and poultry industry, leaving most animals unfit for human consumption. With the next year, a new strain of fungal rot devastated half of the world’s wheat production. The United States face true hunger for the first time and millions of people died all over the globe. Only when Stark Industries developed countermeasures and vaccines the survival of the human race was ensured. One year later, Tony Stark received the Nobel Prize for his work. Although he would never admit it, Stark was surprised how fast the viruses and plagues he created had thrown the world into starvation, but not by how quickly his name was suggested as a presidential nominee. The hero, scientist and savior won with the highest popular and electoral vote in history, but being President of the United States still was not enough for him.
When he secretly developed technology to control the weather and seismic activity, he reached his next goal. Massive “natural” catastrophes in Europe and Asia led to those countries pleading for assistance, which Stark was all too willing to give. They all came to him, Tony Stark never needed to ask or twist any arms and, soon, the world was at his feet, with only one true adversary remaining – Dr. Doom. Iron Man had struck up an alliance with him as well, but this time it was he who was betrayed. The plan was that Doom would launch an attack on Washington, destroying the last remnants of the United States’ political structure. Doom fulfilled his part of the bargain, but then wanted more and tried to overthrow Stark. They battled each other to the death using the in built weaponry of their armors at full force. In the end, Iron man was victorious and walking away from the battleside, he grabbed the green cape of his opponent for himself. That day, he became the Sovereign of Earth.
(present)
With his helmet off, Iron Man sits in his office behind his desk, listening to the reports of his staff. He questions who wants to know this. A member of the staff tells him that the inquiry came from Roxanne Malveer of the National Review. Stark belittles the newspaper, saying that he was not aware it had become a fashion periodical. Marcus, the staff member’s name, explains that a question about when he would redesign his armor would not necessarily be a fashion topic, but Stark already knows that. He gives order to remind them that his current armor was specifically designed to aid in his recovery from his battle with Dr. Doom and that his physicians told him it will be at least three years before he can replace it with another suit. When another staff member suggests how best to release this news, Stark interrupts. He wants them to tell exactly that story and also he wants the National Review’s Editor in Chief removed. Marcus question if with “removed” he means... Stark confirms the man’s suspicions; they are to kill the woman, as he is tired of her accusations and criticism. Then, he excuses himself, as he is due for his medical check-up.
Not much later, Stark is welcomed by a female doctor in his medical center. She asks for permission to shut off the hologram and Stark allows it. She presses a hidden button in the neck-piece of his armor and the handsome face of Tony Stark vanished to give way to what really lies underneath the illusion – a gray/green skinned, scarred, bald head. The doctor finds this an improvement, the grafts are taking as says. Stark is not convinced and tells her he looks like he shaved with a blowtorch, but the medic corrects him – he looks like he sustained a radiation blast from a foot away. Annoyed by this statement, the president asks her why he lets her live and the simple answer she provides is that she is the most gifted cosmetic surgeon in history and Stark wants his good looks restored.
Marcus comes into the lab, reporting about some important matter, but he falls quiet when he sees the face of his employer. Quickly turning on the hologram again, Iron Man angrily questions what he wants. Marcus apologizes for the incident, but Stark gets even angrier and demands to know the reason for the interruption. Marcus says that they have gotten word from the NAS Com base in the Pacific, who have received a reading that could be them. “Who,” Iron man wonders and Marcus repeats, “Sir... them.” Finally getting the meaning, Stark pauses before declaring this as good news.
Elsewhere, another individual is reporting to the ruler of his nation. The green-skinned, almost reptilian-looking guy explains that they have tried everything, but the only way they can effectively stabilize is to break to the surface. The city will flood if they don’t make the necessary repairs and, unfortunately, they will need to shut off the cloaking field for the duration. However, Arcutus, the person’s name, fears that even the briefest exposure will allow their enemies to trace their energy signature and pinpoint their location. They have to face it – the hiding days of the Inhumans have come to an end. In this reality, the Inhumans are a hunted race and the once-glorious Attilan, their home, is a massive vessel that surrounded by a forcefield travels around the seas shifting locations and avoiding detection. Fleeing was their only way to ensure their survival and the Inhumans are a race living in fear.
Black Bolt, the Inhumans’ silent king, and his wife, the Invisible Woman, widow of Reed Richards, listen to Arcutus every word. Speaking for her husband, the Invisible Woman tells Arcutus to take the city to sea level and start repairs. She also orders Gorgon to prepare all that he can for battle. The hooved Inhuman addresses Black Bolt, asking if that isn’t a bit pre-mature, but one gesture from his king is enough to understand that a confrontation is inevitable. As he and the remaining members of the Royal Family leave the throne room, they discuss the events. Gorgon never thought it would come to this day and Karnak agrees that they all hoped they could evade the conflict, but it’s clear that Tony Stark is never satisfied. After conquering Earth, the stars will be his next step. To battle such alien races like the Kree or the Skrulls, one needs an army and no human army will do. Karnak knows that Iron Man will capture the Inhumans, dissect them, study their DNA and use them as breeding stock for his war among the stars. Gorgon wonders if Black Bolt has a plan, but Karnak assures him that he always does.
(three hours later)
Sue approaches her husband and tells him that the repairs have been made, but Arcutus is sure that their location has been discovered. She wants to know what they are to do. Black Bolt lowers his head and then draws the letter G into the air. Sue understands; he is referring to the G barrier, their last gift from Reed. She knows that, with it active, they won’t be able to use the cloaking field as it disrupts the power couplings, but she agrees with Black Bolts decision and leaves to tell Arcutus to start with the necessary preparations.
Watching her leave, Black Bolt thinks that it was Reed Richards who discovered Tony Stark’s true plans during the Mutant Wars, which meant death for him, Medusa and dozens of other heroes. It was only a matter of time before Sue and he found comfort from their grief in each other’s arms. That comfort became love. On her way through the city, Sue is lost in similar thoughts. She has loved two men in her life. Reed Richards was so full of knowledge that he could barely restrain himself from speech, while Black Bolt has to remain silent or his uncontrollable power of his voice might cause mass destruction around him.  While one would never shut up and the other would never talk, both her husbands were very emotionally distant. The irony is not lost on Sue, nor is it appreciated.
In the Oval Office in New York, Iron Man is informed that his staff has satellite confirmation. Attilan has been spotted just 100 miles of the coast of the Marshall Islands in the Pacific. His orders are clear – take them alive, at least most of them. Over the Pacific Ocean, battalions of so-called generators close in on their destination. They are operatives wearing armored suits close to that of Iron Man. Not before long, they reach Attilan, from where a division of Inhumans capable of flight, are approaching. The leader of the Generators once more reminds his comrades that they are to take the Inhumans alive. Their prey do not limit themselves to such obstrictions and fight with everything they have, but some of them end up in captivity.
Inside Attilan, Black Bolt and Sue tell Arcutus to hurry, as they need the G-barrier now. Within the next minutes it might be too late, as them their enemies would be within the perimeter. The loyal servant is making the last preparations. He only needs to make sure that the device is properly powered up. Finished, he orders the Inhuman army to fall back. They follow this order, and the Generators think that they are retreating out of fear, so they go into pursuit. Right when the Inhumans have safely reached the city, he presses a green button that activates the G-barrier. A green force bubble materializes around the city in a big explosion. The G-barrier was originally a means to hold Galactus at bay. The world devourer left it to Reed Richards when he saved his life, as a means to ensure that Galactus would always keep his promise to never feast on the planet. Before his death, Reed left the device to the Inhumans, as he knew that Galactus was not the only power-hungry creature to desire Earth. The Generators are the first to feel the power of the barrier, upon hitting it they are immediately killed.
In his office, Iron man is informed of the barrier. All four battalions of Generators, nearly 40.000, have been killed. Iron Man still orders his men to keep trying, despite the fact that the barrier disintegrates everything they are throwing at it. Once the radio contact has broken off, Stark declares the situation as hopeless. Suddenly, there is a strange noise behind him. Iron Man immediately powers up his repulsors and orders all of them to stay right where they are or they are dead. A voice greets him; “Hello, President Stark. I’m Gambit. We’re Weapon X... and we are here to set things right.” The mutant holds a charged bo staff in his hand and, behind him, his teammates stand ready.

With an Iron Fist - part 2
In the Oval Office in New York, Weapon X has just materialized in front of President Tony Stark, Iron Man. He denounces their story about leaping from one reality to the next as crap and charges up his armor, telling the newly arrived super-beings not to move or even blink.  Some of the team are eager to fight but the Vision merely orders Stark to stand down before the situation escalates. Gambit tells everyone to relax – after all, they want to help. He then reveals that they are aware of Stark wanting to capture the Inhumans and that it is their mission to help the president in accomplishing that to move on. To back up their claim, Angel states that they have Iron Man outnumbered, anyway, so if they wanted to kill him, they could do it right away.
That, however, is where Weapon X is wrong, as Stark easily proves. Pressing one single button, the room suddenly fills with about a dozen of defense drones, all pointing their weapons at the team. They immediately know that this is enough firepower to kill them all. Well, not all, as the Vision accurately points out; all except himself, much to his team’s annoyance. Hulk asks Gambit if the Tallus is giving him some useful information, which he confirms. Then, addressing Iron Man, Gambit once more states that they are telling the truth, which he can prove by the information the Tallus gives him. Iron Man is not impressed, after all he is the President, so he is an open book. Any possible information about him could be researched. Gambit knows better though and asks Iron Man who knows who killed his father. Stark silently listens as Gambit explains that no one is aware that it was Stark himself, when he was just fourteen years old. Now convinced of Weapon X to be genuine, Iron Man lowers his charged repulsor ray and asks the team to accompany him on a walk.
A little bit later, Gambit and Iron Man are in the Presidential Rose Garden, with the rest of Weapon X following at a close distance. Stark narrates that he and his staff have tried everything to breach the force field around Attilan, to no avail. A nuclear strike might do the trick, but he needs the Inhumans alive, so they can’t be too aggressive. Much to his surprise, Gambit knows of a way to disengage the G barrier – Reed Richards created a key, just in case that the force field technology might fall into the wrong hands. Iron Man thinks that this is typical. Reed always had a contingency plan.
The conversation is interrupted Vision’s eye beams. Both men look around to find Vision and Angel most effectively dealing with two armed guards. Gambit too charges up his staff, though Iron Man claims it’s his fault. The Vision states that his sensors detected a guard activating a neural dampener, apparently trying to disable one or all of them. Asked why he was shooting, as he has no scanners, the Angel answers that he was simply following the Vision’s lead. Iron steps in, apologizing, for he forgot about his own orders about sneak attacks. However, the incident had a purpose, as he now finds himself impressed by Weapon X’s “willingness to act.” Spider finds this a funny way to describe killing a person, but Hulk tells him to shut up.
Getting back to the topic at hand, Stark asks if Weapon X has the key that lowers the field, but Gambit denies it. He only knows whom it was given to for safekeeping. Iron Man asks who that is, and he says that it’s Simon Williams, Wonder Man. Hearing this, Iron Man curses, as Wonder Man is a bit of a problem in this reality. Spider thinks he has to be kidding. After all, he is acting president; he could just drop a nuke on him. Iron Man says that this would only piss him off and fills the team in to what happened years ago. In an attempt to kill the Hulk, he dropped a high concentration gamma bomb on the green goliath. It created a radiation storm so intense that even he couldn’t absorb all the radiation and died, though at the time Simon Williams was only 20 feet away at the time. The gamma rays interacted with Wonder Man’s already screwed-up physiology and he absorbed some genetic matter from the disintegrating Hulk. Storm surmises that, by killing one Hulk, he ended up creating a new one, just as strong. Even stronger, Iron Man explains.
Weapon X is in awe. Stark continues, saying that they have come to an understanding, though, they leave each other alone. Even if he would try to find him now, he probably wouldn’t as Wonder Man’s companion, the Scarlet Witch, is masking their presence magically. This, again, is Gambit’s cue to reveal that the Tallus knows exactly where Wonder Man is right now. Stark is surprised by the amount of information the device contains, prompting Spider to warn him not to try to steal it from the team. In another world, Dr. Octopus tried to do that but ended up dead. Iron Man tells Weapon X that they will never be able to defeat Wonder Man, he will surely kill all of them. However, Gambit replies that they have no intention of fighting him, they are just gonna steal from him.
Somewhere on a Hawaiian island, in a secluded villa, Wanda Maximoff, the Scarlet Witch, interrupts her precious studying of ancient tomes and potions when she hears her lover, Wonder Man, coming in. She mentions that he mediated longer today than usual, to which he answers that he was having nightmares. Wanda asks if they might have been visions, but he is unsure, he never can tell the difference. Simon then tells that he will go swimming and, afterwards, paint. He invites her along and she accepts. Turning to the other inhabitant of the house, the legless Stephen Strange, Wanda asks if he would like to join them, but he refuses, not wanting to interrupt his mystic studies of an occult text.
The trio is unaware of Weapon X already being on the island and spying on them. The Spider compares them to a TV sitcom: “He’s a monster, she’s a witch and he’s a crippled sorcerer. They’re – Chillin’ In Paradise!” The others are more concerned whether the magical talismans will counter the Scarlet Witch’s fortification spell. She assures them that they’ll do the task. After all, she was raised on the knee of her uncle, who was a tenth generation shaman. Entering the house, they won’t alert anyone, at least not magically. Gambit orders the team into action while the lovers are still swimming. Vision’s sensors register an anti-matter signature below, in the buildings basement, when suddenly they are recognized by Dr. Strange. However, before he can act, he finds himself covers in red goo, part of Spider’s symbiont costume. The Weapon X members gets careless, though, and when Dr. Strange uses his one free hand to rip the magical necklace from his neck, the Scarlet Witch’s fortification spell goes off in a loud wail.
Gambit orders Angel and Vision to go after they key, while the others will split up and try to outrun Wonder Man. Too late, though, as the bulky Simon Williams, still wet from his swim in the ocean, is already in the doorway. The Hulk is the first to feel his power, as he sends her flying with one punch. While Gambit and the Spider prove to be only little resistance, Jen comes back, though, and this time manages to land a blow herself, sending both she and Wonder Man down a ledge to the beach.
In the sub-basement, Vision phases through a steel door and concurs that they have found what they are after. He reaches behind him and pulls his teammate through the closed door as well, much to his displeasure. The Angel is outraged, he wanted Vision to open the door for him, he hates being phased – it always makes him puke. No sooner did he say it than he actually commits the act, though at least he agrees with the Vision that the glowing object in front of them, encased in some transparent sphere, is indeed the key they are after. The Vision proceeds, stating that they must act in haste.
Topside, the Hulk is still duking it out with Wonder Man, yelling to her teammates that she surely could use some help. Gambit leaps into action, telling Wonder Man that they have no interest in fighting him, though at the same time throws some charged knifes at him. The blades hit Wonder Man in the back, exploding on impact, but he is unharmed. Hulk points out the stupidity of the attack and the speech coming at the same time. High above, Storm announces that brute force might not be enough to beat Wonder Man, though perhaps nature’s fury might, so she strikes at him with a lighting beam. She doesn’t get the chance for a second one, as she is blasted out of the sky by a force bolts from the Scarlet Witch.
Her hands and eyes still dazzling in energy, Wanda is confused. Storm was supposed to have died years ago. Gambit was always on their side, so who are these people? The Spider is more than eager to provide an answer and approaches the beautiful woman who wears nothing but a bikini. He demands to know where he in this reality is supposed to be. Did his counterpart die in the war, did he escape to Canada or Mexico? He catches the Witch and threatens her by holding up a dagger made of his symbiont costume to her face.
Suddenly, Wonder Man screams his lover’s name and bulks over in great pain. The Scarlet Witch urges Spider to let go of her before it is too late. All the time, Simon struggles to maintain control, but when someone threatens her it sets him off. Before the eyes of Weapon X, Wonder Man grows even bigger and his skin transforms to green color. In perfect “Hulk-smash” style, he leaps over to the man who has his lover in his clutches and, with one powerful punch to the ground, he sends the Spider flying.
Gambit realizes that they have no other option than to use the ”wild card” President Stark gave them. He throws a metallic sphere to the cliffside behind Wonder Man, where the strange object unfolds and starts to work as designed. It’s a portable, temporary portal into the Negative Zone. It’s surely working, as right after opening a vacuum vortex sucks in everything within range.
The Spider manages to stick to the ground, while Gambit rams his Bo staff into the ground and holds on to it. He orders the Hulk to push their foe through the portal, promising that Spider will toss her a webline. Jen does as told, but the tether line is not there. Spider explains that it was Gambit who promised the line, not he, and he watches slightly amused as she gets sucked into the Negative Zone too. Her final words, before the gate closes after her, are curses and promises to get back at him when she catches up with the team.
Now, with the danger dealt with, the situation calms. Gambit correctly assumes that Spider only nerve-pitched the Scarlet Witch, as he would never kill anyone who looks that good in a bikini. Hovering above them, Storm, now the single female member of the team has only one word to describe them... “pigs.” Gambit asks why he didn’t save the Hulk and Spider explains that she outweighs him by a ton and he would have been pulled in along with her if he tried. Besides, he didn’t like her because she tried to kill him during their mission involving the Morlocks. Behind them, Colossus materializes out if thin air, he’s Weapon X’s new member. Colossus tries to introduce himself, but Spider stops him – they know how he came to be here and what the Timebroker said to him. He then tells Colossus to wait, as it’s Angel’s turn to give the rundown to newbies. Gambit offers to do it, but Spider insists that rules are rules. It’s Angel’s turn.
(hours later)
Weapon X has brought the key to Iron Man, who is having the device examined by a group of scientists.
Meanwhile, in Attilan, Black sits on his throne, pondering their situation. He knew that it was unavoidable and that his people’s long journey would have to come to an end one day. He is aware of his people being tired, with so little joy left in their lives. The children already do not remember a time other than this. They never knew the majesty that was their kingdom or the pride the Inhumans once possessed. All they know is what it feels like to be hunted. Black Bolts picks up a book entitled “Masada” and walks to an observation platform, from where he has a good view on his citizens. He has only little hope to offer them, but the one thing he can guarantee is that the Inhumans will never be hunted again...

With an Iron Fist – conclusion
Black, the king of the Inhumans, soars above the ruined Attilan, carrying a book. He never speaks, not because he lacks the ability to, but because his voice produces the most powerful sound ever heard. It is not only his greatest power, but also his greatest curse, for his voice is deadly. A single word can topple buildings and explode through the Earth’s crust, which is why Black Bolt remains silent. However, he can speaks volumes with his body language, a skill he spent his entire life cultivating.
Black Bolt lands at his palace, welcomed by his wife Susan Richards. She takes great pains to understand her husband, as she must interpret, search and fight to comprehend his every gesture. Especially as of late, it is hard to understand Black Bolt, as he has kept completely to himself. Sue approaches Black Bolt, who stands behind a table with many different books on it. She asks if he has read all of them and points out that all of them are about races that have been slaughtered – the American Indians, the African slave trade to the new world, the French Revolution, Jews from all eras, etc. Sue wonders what he hopes to find in these texts; there won’t be an answer how to defeat Stark in them. Black Bolt shows her the book entitled “Masada.” Sue says she knows the tale and then she understands what Black Bolt’s plan is. Her eyes widen in shock and she pleads with him that there must be another way.
Crystal interrupts the tense moment and apologizes to her king and queen, but they received word from the Scarlet Witch and Dr. Strange that the disruptor has been stolen and now is in Stark’s hands. With the means to bring down the G-Barrier around Attilan, another attack is certain. For a moment, all are silent. Tears in her eyes, Susan once more tries to convince her husband not to go through with his plan, but his motionless expression tells her that his decision is reached.
The mission of Weapon X, in order to repair the timeline and move on to the next, is to aid President Stark in defeating the Inhumans. Currently, they are assembled in the War Room of the White House in New York City, just like dozens of super-powered mercenaries, viewing a map of the Pacific and a holographic simulation of Attilan and the G-Barrier surrounding it. Gambit asks Stark why he wants them to lead the attack and the President eagerly explains. For one, they managed to take out Wonder Man, something nobody else has be able to do. Also, Weapon X has the most to lose. If they fail, they have to stay on the planet or, even worse, are returned to their own twisted realities. That’s why Iron Man thinks Weapon X’s motivation to win the battle is much higher than of the super-powered mercenaries he assembled. But, if they don’t want the job, he could ask someone else.
Gambit denies this option; they’ll do it. Right then, one of the scientists alerts the president that the city of Attilan is moving again, due east over the Pacific at 200 knots. Iron Man wonders what Black Bolt is up to and asks if there is anything ahead of the city. The scientist tells him not much, only a four mile stretch of coral. Stark concludes that Black Bolt will set the city down there, wanting to take away the fight from a civilized areas. It’s a noble gesture, he thinks, but it also tells him that the Inhumans are aware of them attacking soon.
(hours later)
Dozens of ships and a battalion of Generators are flying over the Pacific Ocean, closing in on Attilan. Stark wants to capture the Inhumans, as he needs them for a super-powered army to conquer the stars – ruling Earth is not enough for him. Being the commander of the invading forces, Gambit tells everyone to await his orders.
In Attilan, Black Bolt is going through with his plan. Everyone has been given their instructions and their king’s blessing. His queen was not so easily swayed and Black Bolt took some time to convince her that this is the only solution. Black Bolt and Susan stand on a balcony of their palace, watching a battalion of flying Inhumans leave the city to meet the invading forces. Then, it’s time for them to say goodbye as well. Sue passionately kisses her husband a final time, before she creates a platform with her forcefield and propels herself off the balcony, and descends into the city. What Black Bolt isn’t aware of is that she lied to him. Sue has a plan of her own. She knows that her husband wouldn’t approve her plan, but she would not be able to live with herself if she didn’t see it all out to the end. It’s a small lie, but one with great consequences.
Outside of the perimeter of the G-Barrier surrounding Attilan, the Inhumans forces, led by Gorgon, Karnak and Triton, assemble on a small landmass. The incoming troops of President Stark radio him that the Inhumans opened the barrier for 15 seconds to let them out but now it’s close again and it seems they aren’t going down without a fight. Stark’s orders are simple and clear – all divisions are to prepare to engage and they are to await the final command from Gambit. After the ships get a little bit closer to the Inhumans, Gambit finally gives the command everyone is waiting for. All teams are go. Immediately, the Exiles and the super-powered mercenaries rain down on the Inhumans and fighting starts. The sound of the two forces colliding can be heard fifty miles away.
Amidst all the confusion, Gambit yells for Storm and Colossus to cover him and stick together, as it’s their job to get the disruptor to the base of the barrier. Colossus shouts that he is busy with a scaly Inhuman (Triton) and that he should blame the Weather Witch, who should give arial support. Flying above him, Ororo angrily replies that the name is Storm and that she can only clear a path, but not carry them to the target point. That said, she fells a horned Inhuman with a lightning bolt.
Elsewhere on the battlefield, Karnak makes quick way of some of the invading forces. Destroying one of the Generators with a single blow of his hand, he announces that he shall disarm all of them, one at a time. He then leaps onto his next opponent: the Abomination. Karnak’s power is to sense the tiniest flaw and the weakest spot in everything. With that knowledge he can dispatch any adversary with a calculated blow, just like the Abomination now experiences when Karnak strikes him in the back of his head. Karnak’s problem though is, that he needs to see his opponents coming and he fails to notice the Vision coming up from behind.
The synthezoid phases his right hand into Karnak’s chest and declares that by slowly solidifying it, he will sever the ventricles of Karnak’s heart and take him out of the fight. Already in great pain and unable to speak, Karnak turns and senses the weak spot in the Vision’s design. Though only a millimeter thick, the flaw is there and Karnak strikes at the Vision’s shoulder, severing his left arm. Now severely damaged, the synthezoid lets go of Karnak and both of them seem to collapse.
Meanwhile, Colossus has reached the G-Barrier wall, with Gambit close behind him. Piotr wonders if they can really befall the barrier with the small device, but Gambit reassures him that Stark’s examination revealed that it is more than capable to do that. Gambit urges his teammate to active the disruptor before ... Too late. Gorgon has seen them and throws an unconscious opponent on Colossus, stopping him from using the disruptor.
Inside the force-dome, Black Bolt knows that the time has come and that he has to do what is inevitable. Standing atop the tallest building of Attilan he looks down into the faces of his loyal subjects. All Inhumans, that aren’t fighting outside, have gathered in the streets. Even the Alpha Primitives have emerged from the caves beneath the city, all looking up in agreement. Fate has dealt them a terrible blow and they shall now turn to meet it. Black Bolt looks at them, his head lowered in sadness.
Outside, Vision has come to aid his teammates, and Gorgon is quickly subdued. Gambit rams his charged bo staff into his gut, apologizing, but he wants to finish the mission and go home. With his dying breath, Gorgon hopes that he has bought his king enough time. Colossus activates the disruptor and the G-Barrier breaks down. President Stark is informed through a radio transmit that his troops can now start Phase Two – neutralize every Inhuman in the city, man, woman, child. As the invading forces reach the center of Attilan, they find only smoke and death... all Inhumans lying dead on the streets. Gambit, in constant radio contact with President Stark, is grasping for words, trying to describe the scene in front of him.
Centuries ago, after the fall of Jerusalem and the destruction of the Jewish Temple in 70 CE by the conquering Roman army, 1,000 Jewish zealot resisters and their families fled Jerusalem and took over a remote mountaintop. The resisters withstood a 2-year siege by the Roman Tenth Legion. Then, in 73 CE, the Roman Governor Flavius Silva marched against them. The Roman army established camps at the base of the fortress and laid siege to it. Later they constructed a rampart made up of thousands of tons of stones and beaten earth. In the spring of the year 74 CE, the attacking army moved a battering ram up this ramp and finally breached the wall of the Jewish resisters’ fortress. The end was inevitable for the resisters. This was a battle they could not win. So, the 1,000 robbed the Roman army of their victory. They would not live to be enslaved and tortured. Their children and their children’s children would not lead the desperate life of bondage to the Romans. They chose death at their own hands. When the leader of the Roman army finally entered the resisters’ stone fortress he had laid siege to for so long, he gazed upon the dead and uttered – “We have won. We have won a rock.”
Suddenly, Gambit realizes that it is a trap and tells everyone to get out fast and not to look back. Colossus doesn’t respond, still shocked by the sight in front of him, but Storm grabs him by the arm and, calling him idiot, tells him to run. Right then, the members of Weapon X are being teleported away. They wonder how that can be the case, as they didn’t really finish their mission, which was to defeat the Inhumans. Gambit thinks that they must have set something else in motion and then Weapon X is gone. Stark’s troops are left by themselves.
Black Bolt is floating above the remains of the city, he wonders what Stark would say now and if he knows about the story of the Romans and the Jews. He hopes that the legend of that rock will never be forgotten and that the name would ring in the ears of his oppressors, even if they are half a world away. Black Bolt takes off his costume, charges up for one final time and releases all his power in a single word – MASADA !! – flattening the remains off Attilan and all of Stark’s troops at once.
Somewhat later, Iron Man thinks about the events in his presidential garden, observing some butterflies. He realizes that Weapon X were merely pawns in time’s massive reconstruction. They were meant to help him fail. He has lost. Stark cares little for his army that has perished, as it was the Inhumans he had wanted. There weren’t even any bodies to recover, as everything in and around Attilan was vaporized. The Inhumans and everything they could have provided for him are gone. Actually though, Stark is wrong, not all Inhumans are gone, as some of them are hiding and will begin again in secret, with the world being oblivious to their existence. Black Bolt’s plan worked perfectly.
A butterfly lands on Iron Man’s Fist, but he crushes it between his fingers, calling it a weak, pathetic failure. Suddenly, an invisible force bolt strikes through his throat from behind. As Stark is dying, Sue explains that Black Bolt beat him and that she wanted him to know that. She tells him of the three hundred Inhumans she cloaked during the battle, but she herself had to come back and kill him. Two security guards enter the gardens, readying their energy weapons. Sue touches her 4-necklace and tells herself that she will be with her loved ones soon. The two soldiers fire and Sue is killed. She falls to the ground, next to Iron Man’s dead body.
This world will never know the debt it owes to a group of nomadic super beings. A reality away, Weapon X will never understand their true purpose on this planet. They set events in motion that brought about this moment. In the decades to come, the horrors that Tony Stark had perpetrated would come to light. And it will be recognized by the world that it took the sacrifice of an entire civilization and one woman who loved their king, to free the world of this monster.

Hard Choices - part 1
In New York City, on an alternate Earth, Danny Rand, aka Iron Fist, walks to work. A beggar asks him for some money, saying that he could eat all year for what he paid for his coat, but Danny ignores him. As he reaches the building of Heroes for Hire Inc., he runs into Spider-Man, who complains about not having been paid yet for his Octopus job. Spider-Man blames it on the new electronic vouchering system of the company. Danny continues through the building, towards his office, when a secretary informs him of an important client waiting in a conference room. Still, Rand has more important matters to attend to and he is joined by his two friends and partners, Colossus and Luke Cage, Power Man.
Piotr tells Danny that the Japanese are on the satellite phone again. Moses Magnum has upped the ante and is threatening to sink Japan at midnight if they don’t make him absolute ruler. Seeing Luke eat a donut, Danny asks if there are any more left, as he didn’t have breakfast. Luke informs him it was the last one. Slightly annoyed by this, he heads to the video screen, only to see a very angry Silver Samurai reporting from Japan. He demands to know where they have been, but Danny doesn’t like his tone and tells the Samurai to back off, as surely he doesn’t want to start out on his bad side. Seeing his usually very calm friend in such a bad mood, Luke offers the rest of his donut to Danny, while the Samurai states that Japan offered them two billion for their best people and they refused. Danny points out the difference between refusing and asking for a fair compensation. They requested Black Knight, Scorpion and the rest of the Avengers package, which costs at least five billion. The Samurai gets mad, pointing out that there are billions of lives at stake, but Danny breaks the connection.
(half a day later)
In Tokyo, Japan, the Exiles materialize. The city around them is burning, several buildings damaged or ruined and many citizens are running through the streets in panic. Sunfire is shocked to see her hometown in this state and Nocturne wonders where to start getting to work in all of this chaos. Morph questions Mimic what the Tallus says will be their mission, sarcastically suggesting that it’s possibly to let everyone die. “Listening” to the device on his wrist, Calvin tells him that he isn’t far off. Morph quickly says that he was just kidding and Nocturne wants to know why they even need to be here to just let them die. Mimic further explains; they are not to let the people die, but they have to prevent them from being saved. Sasquatch too disagrees with this mission, she is a doctor, after all.
Not having listened to the conversation, Sunfire picks up an injured woman and realizes that her parents’ counterparts live close by. She wants to check on them and suggests that Mimic changes into his steel form. However, as nothing happens, she asks why all her teammates are just standing there doing nothing, as there are people dying all around them. None of them reply, all just staring at her. Mariko finally understands what the problem is and cries out that this can’t be what the Timebroker wants from them.
Meanwhile, the jet of Heroes for Hire reaches the coast of Japan. Inside are Iron Fist, Power Man, Colossus, Scorpion, Black Knight and Black Widow. Luke asks Danny if he is okay but obviously he is not. Millions of people died because he woke up the wrong side of the bed this morning. Luke tries to make him feel less guilty, reminding him that they talked it through when they started their business. They aren’t a group of cops or vigilante do-gooders but are a business company and, sometimes, have to make hard choices. Danny, however, says that millions of people are no business decision but aiding and abetting genocide. Behind, the Scorpion tells Danny to stop it. It was Moses Magnum who killed these people and Danny’s whining is getting on his nerves. All he wants to know is where exactly Magnum is and that he can finally kill something and do it, for a change, with a clear conscience. The jet approaches Tokyo.
In the city, Mimic tries to explain to Mariko what this reality should be like, according to the Tallus. The Avengers were supposed to protect Japan and die trying. Moses Magnum is supposed to kill Victor von Doom to complete the conquest of Europe and the world. The Japanese race and culture is supposed to be extinguished within the next ten years. Sunfire gets angry. She refuses to believe any of this. She accuses her teammates of having lost their humanity and claims that Blink would have never let this happen. Morph agrees; this mission seems like something Weapon X handles on a regular basis – the Timebroker said that it’s they who handle the dirty tasks.
Illyana interrupts, explaining that the Timebroker is a construct of their collective subconscious, which has significantly changed since he first gave the group their instructions. Mimic agrees with her, although he misses Blink more than anyone else, things have changed, although he doesn’t believe the bit of the Timebroker having anything to do with their collective subconscious. Nocturne asks what he means by that but Mimic tells her it doesn’t matter, they should just finish the job and move on. Holding up her sword, Illyana tells him to just point her at the Avengers.
Mariko is outraged; she can’t believe what she is hearing. It’s the death of a culture they are talking about; genocide, millions of innocent people. Illyana yells back at her that it’s just on this world, while there are millions of other worlds with Japanese people running around. Although he doesn’t agree with how she says it, Mimic in general agrees with Illyana. They are not to judge, they just have to accomplish their missions so that they can go home. He is sick of this entire situation they are in. In every scenario, he might find people he remembers as friends and loved ones as their enemies. Sunfire doesn’t buy it. She says she is disgusted by them, all of them. She reminds everyone that they were heroes on their worlds, so how is this any different? They go off and fight for something they believe in, risking not to come home alive. They have been taking that chance every time they chose to get involved.
Illyana correctly points out that she didn’t choose to be here, which ticks off Mariko even more. It makes no difference, she cries. It’s the ideals they stood for and the same ideals they have to defend now. Now Calvin gets annoyed. While with the Exiles, he was forced to compromise his ideals a hundred times over. Two months ago, he beat Namor to death in an inferno, a few hours ago he broke the Juggernaut’s neck to keep him from killing all of Russia and today he will kill the Avengers and the Japanese will die. And, maybe, he will finally get back to his own world, where Japan still exists and all of this was just a horribly bad dream, like none of it ever happened.
Mariko calms dawn and approaches him. She knows he is a good man and has been pushed beyond what’s fair or right to expect of anyone. However, she also reminds him that this is not a bad dream; it’s a bad reality and they need to decide something right now. Do they want to ignore the Tallus and the Timebroker and make a stand for their ideals or do they allow themselves be turned into another Weapon X, who blindly does whatever they are told? Do they let the Timebroker define them or do they define themselves as heroes? She gently touches his face as she asks this. Calvin looks down, a tear coming from his eye. He says he knows Mariko is right.
Illyana is furious; how can he say that? Who are they to arbitrarily throw away her life? Mimic says that it isn’t arbitrary. All of them have been with the Exiles longer than she and no one knows for sure if they ever really get home anyway. Illyana doesn’t like this, but Calvin says he doesn’t care. He chooses to define himself as a hero. Changing the subject, he asks if anyone knows anything about Moses Magnum and his whereabouts. Morph, looking like Sherlock Holmes, says that he has a secret island abode in the Kuril Island chain and that the only thing capable of beating him was Banshee’s ultra-sonic scream. Mariko welcomes that the team is now willing to oppose Magnum but she also reminds the others of the injured and dying people all around that need their help.
Mimic suggests that they’ll do what the always do: they split up. He picks Sasquatch and Magik to accompany him to Magnum’s place, while the rest will stay and aid the wounded as best as they can. Morph cracks a joke, saying that he is no doctor, but he plays one on TV, earning him a “Not now” remark from Nocturne. He complains that he is hearing it so often that he actually begins to think that “Not now” is his first name. While they and Mariko get to work, Magik Sasquatch and Mimic walk away. Illyana thinks that someone should meet the Avengers where the Tallus told they would be and Mimic thinks it’s a good idea. They can use all the help they can against such a powerful foe. Illyana tells Mimic to fly ahead with Sasquatch to Magnum’s base, while she will find the Avengers. More like whispering to herself, she adds, “and this will all be over in no time.”
The heroes for Hire’s jet has finally arrived and, looking out of the cockpit, the heroes look at the amount of destruction beneath them. None of them really thought Magnum would back up his threads with such massive earthquakes. Colossus spots someone waving them down and, as the jet gets closer, he thinks that the blonde woman looks like his sister, Illyana, all grown up. Iron Fist wonders what a blonde woman with a sword is doing in the middle of all this destruction and Colossus suggests they land and ask her. Probably, she is there to help too. Power Man does as he suggests, though he thinks that it looks like the woman is getting under the jet. Colossus tells him that probably it’s just his viewing angle, but he should continue. Surely, the woman will get out of the way.
Beneath the jet, Illyana takes aim and then lashes out with her sword, causing the aircraft to explode in a big fireball. The jet’s remains and its passengers rain down. Scorpion hits the ground hard and cries in agony. The blast has torn off both his legs and his right arm. As he cries for lost limbs, Illyana approaches him, telling him to shut up. It’s not like he is going to need them anymore...
Approaching the Kuril Island chain, Calvin and Heather immediately spot Magnum’s lair, which is built into the interior of an inactive vulcano. Mimic descends, while Heather changes into her Sasquatch form, expecting to run into some guards. Right before they land, Sasquatch asks her friend whether he thinks the Timebroker is actually grooming them or training them for some unknown purpose, instead of what he’s claiming. Calvin says that in the time they have been bouncing from one world to the next, he has considered next to every possibility, but now is not the time to talk about it. He transforms into steel and, together, the two Exiles start ripping apart some of the equipment, as they make their way to the deeper levels of the base.
Back in Tokyo, the Scorpion has managed to stop Illyana’s sword with his long tail. He calls the Avengers or anybody else for help, the dead body of the Black Widow lying next to him. Magik curses at him to just die and severs his tail with a strike of her sword. He is supposed to be dead anyway, so he should just shut up, do everyone a favor and die. Saying this, she rams her sword into the ground, pinning down the remaining tail and then pulls a dagger from a pocket in her costume. She holds it up the Scorpion’s face, who, with eyes wide open, pleads with her not to die like this. It’s no use. Showing no remorse, Illyana rams the dagger in his forehead, stating there is a reasonable explanation for all of this.
Behind her, Iron Fist, Power Man and Colossus emerge from the debris unharmed. Danny tells her that he doesn’t care for her explanation. He just wants her to turn and drop the sword. Still holding her weapon, Illyana turns and Colossus realizes that indeed she is his sister. He asks how she could have grown up so fast and what she is doing in Japan with a sword. Illyana doesn’t answer. She is still surprised to see her brother among the group of people she is meant to kill.
In Moses Magnum’s base, Sasquatch and Mimic have effectively dealt with the security guards, though they kept one conscious for interrogation. Calvin asks him where their leader is but receives no answer. Getting impatient, he pops Wolverine’s bone claws and, holding them up the man’s face, repeats his question. This time, the scared guard is more than willing to answer and reveals that Magnum went to Tokyo to put an end to people helping the Japanese. Sasquatch and Mimic understand that it must be their teammates the guard is talking about.
Morph and Sunfire are walking through the destroyed streets of Tokyo, carrying yet another injured man and a child. Morph tells Mariko they should really go find her parents and she agrees. But there are so many people needing them that she can’t just walk past them. Concerned about her friend, she asks if Morph is okay as he hasn’t tried to joke in over an hour. Morph answers that it’s hard to find any humor at the moment. They reach their destination, a sort of field hospital. Many of the people are already dead, the other injured or apathically sitting among the dead bodies. The situation is too much for them. Nocturne sits besides an elderly woman, offering her some soup.
Mariko tells Morph that she is sorry it took something like this, but she has to admit that she finds him a more interesting, well-rounded person when he turns off the joke machine from time to time. His mood a little bit lighter, Morph asks if it means she will have sex with him now. She responds in jovial matter. “I don’t know ... try looking like Spiderwoman and we’ll talk.” Nocturne interrupts them; they have company. Moses Magnum, Namorita and their army have arrived. Magnum looks at them, not pleased that someone is crashing the “party” he started and he intends to stop them.

Hard Choices - part 2
Tokyo, the crash site of the Avengers jet, fire burns the remains of the plane, Illyana is holding her sword standing over the bodies of Black Widow and Scorpion. Power Fist gives her five seconds to explain herself while Luke Cage angrily screams that there is no acceptable reason. Their teammate, the Black Knight, is leaning on some debris, hurt, in the background. Colossus pleads that there must be some explanation. Danny says that he hopes Peter is right or else they will crack Illyana's skull open. He doesn't feel much remorse over Scorpion, but he really liked the Black Widow, Danny apologizes to Piotr.
Illyana says that she has an excellent explanation and that once they hear it, she hopes they will work with her to fix her problem. She pulls her dagger out from Scorpion's skull.  She starts by explaining that she is Illyana Rasputin from an alternate dimension and that she too has a brother named Peter Rasputin.  She goes on to explain that the Hero for Hire group was supposed to have come to Japan during the first wave of attacks, presumably to help, then all be killed. Finishing, she tells them that they must all die in order for her to be able to return to her home and for their world to go on with its normal course.
With an exhausted look on her face, she adds that although she knows that this reality’s Piotr really isn't her brother, there's still some emotional difficulty in killing him and his friends. They stare at her in shock and confusion. She continues by telling them, "So pick up the knife please, and end this like men.  It's the natural order of things."  Holding the dagger in her hand, she drops it to the ground leaving it stuck in the ground at Danny's feet to offer him a way to kill himself, "Let’s make this as painless for all of us a possible, shall we?"
One block away:
A giant crab-looking weapon is being driven by a Atlantean, three fighter jets hover overhead and Moses Magnum, Namorita, and Atlantean soldiers and human mercs stand ready to face off with Sunfire, Nocturne, and Morph. A building burns the background, and the shell of another building leans ready to fall onto the torn up street.
Sunfire says that they have to save the people and Magnum off-handedly informs them that actually they don't because that would be interfering with the plans that he and his fiancée, Namorita, Queen of Atlantis, have worked so hard to achieve. He adds that sinking of Japan and extinguishing this race is a message to the world that Moses Magnum and Namorita are now rulers of the Earth.
Sunfire corrects Magnum that he has misunderstood and that they, the Exiles, have to save the people. Magnum mockingly repeats that they were not asking for his help, and adds that they were just "threatening him with some misguided declaration of heroism.
Morph changed into a muscle-bound super hero body, cape and all with a big "M" on his chest and counters with "That's Captain Misguided Declaration of Heroism to you, pal." Magnum gets annoyed and asks for the Atlantean soldiers to go and kill the ”lunatics and mindless children.”
Sunfire immediately picks up Nocturne and Morph and takes off. Namorita screams that they are getting away and shouts orders to kill them all, but Magnum soothes her by telling her that it doesn't matter because in a few days the whole world will "lie naked and shamed, faced down before...the King of the land and the Queen of the sea."  He then adds that the skins of Earth’s supposed heroes will decorate their floors of gold and silver and they will make love upon them laughing. They kiss, while the citizens of Japan run for their lives from the machines that the Atlantean are operating.
Back at the crash-site
Illyana hits Luke on the wrist with her sword, Danny and Luke fight her and
Piotr pleas for them all to stop. He closes in on her to plead with her to
stop as she repeats to herself: "He's not my brother, he's not my brother, he's not my brother..."  She strikes at him with her sword making contact with Luke's hand instead, as he moves to protect his teammate. Illyana looks a little shocked and Luke is able to use her surprise and take her sword away from her, albeit his wrist is now bleeding badly. Piotr looks amazed that Illyana actually was about to strike him while Danny delivers a mean kick to Magik’s lower jaw and knocks her to the ground. He intends to finish her with Luke egging him on, as he punches the ground next to her face. He grabs her by the hair and pulls her to her feet, delivering another punch, Piotr closes his eyes because he can't watch his friends beat up the woman who clais to be his sister.  Luke, wielding Illyana's sword, tells Danny to hold out the unconscious Illyana by the hair so that he can finish her off.
Over Tokyo:
Sunfire is still pulling Nocturne along as Morph flies next to them, three Atlantean fighter jets on their tail.  As Sunfire gets an idea to try
something new, she tells Morph to follow her lead as she speeds up and goes higher up in the sky, telling Nocturne to hold on because what she is about to do might make her sick. Morph says that he knows because he's already there. Sunfire warns Nocturne that she is going to let go of her now, Nocturne freaks out a little, but Morph catches her and informs her that "If you feel the need to make love as your final act in the world, I'd be willing."
Sunfire circles around and collides with two of the jets, they burn and go crashing to the ground, the last pilot realizes that Sunfire's trail leads right behind them as she flies through it and the last jet goes crashing down in a red hot burning mess. Shboom. Morph congratulates Sunfire on a job well done and insists on a group hug with plenty of breast all around.
A block away from Illyana:
Magnum decides that everything is going well enough for Namorita and him to go back to the Island. He says that they need to make preparations for the Avengers who will eventually come. He smugly adds that they might want to change their plans once the Avengers are out of the way and finish off all of Asia instead of just Japan. He continues saying that he doesn't even want "those people around as slaves."
Two pairs of eyes glow in the background, one pair red and the other pair blue. Magnum and Namorita get a surprise as they are thrown into a brick wall with the force of an optic blast.
Mimic and Sasquatch are revealed, Mimic says that they have got to finish them fast and that he should have used his claws instead. Suddenly, an earthquake hits them and Magnum shows them why his mother named him Moses by parting the earth beneath them. Both Sasquatch and Mimic along with some Atlanteans are caught off-guard and almost fall in the crack that appears.
Back with the crazy sword-wielding blonde:
As Luke strikes, he is surprised as he hits Piotr's hand - Piotr has reached out to protect his sister. Luke tells him to let go and let him finish her, he insists that Illyana isn't really his sister. Piotr punches through Luke’s chest breaking the chains on his costume. As blood drips from dying Luke's mouth, Piotr says that whether or not she is his real sister, he knows her and chooses to believe her. He apologizes to Luke. "I'm so- -so very sorry, my friend."
Danny flips out and screams at Peter.  Colossus defends his actions by saying that she is his sister no matter what reality she came from and that she deserves the chance to go home.  Danny is enraged and says that she could be lying or be possessed. He continues saying that Piotr and Luke were his best friends and that he is cannot turn on them for her. Piotr says that he already has and tells him to use his iron fist on him. He closes his eyes as Danny delivers the blow that pierces through Piotr. Illyana stands, awake now, shocked at what she is seeing.  Piotr grabs Danny and though he is bleeding from his punch, he thanks Danny for all the things that he received from him, a beautiful home, work he loved, and friendships that he valued above everything else. Piotr continues saying that he never wanted their friendship to end, but there is one thing that is more important to him. Danny struggles and protests that Piotr is crushing his head.  With tears falling from his eyes Piotr replies, "I know, my brother."  And kills Danny. Illyana calls out to Piotr as he too falls to the ground dying from the punch delivered by Danny, Illyana is then confronted by Black Knight who watched the whole thing, and has no intention of letting her get her away.
Elsewhere:
Sunfire has led Nocturne and Morph to where her parents are supposed to live. She expresses concern and hopes that they are all right. She goes into the battered home yelling for her mom and dad.  Nocturne and Morph enter the home as well and Nocturne expresses that if they are going to be stuck in this dimension then it would be helpful to know if her parents are together or even alive too.
Morph sees something that worries him and gets T.J. to help him: it's a woman trapped under the rubble. As they move away the debris, T.J. says that maybe it's not a member of Mariko's family, Morph confirms that it is indeed not a member of Mariko's family, as they remove the pieces from the corpse’s head and reveal that it is this dimension’s Mariko instead. Sunfire walks in and gasp as Nocturne tells Morph that they have to get their Mariko out before she walks in and sees dead Mariko.
Where the earth is shaking:
Magnus is annoyed that Mimic can fly, "I hate when they can fly."  Mimic takes on Magnum and Sasquatch fights with Namorita. Sasquatch is faring well, she clocks Namorita across the jaw. Mimic however, isn't for long. He is about to punch Magnum as out, asMagnum reaches over and touches Mimic on the shoulder informing him that his powers work better on contact. He sends an quake through Mimic’s body just as Namorita punches Sasquatch and sends her flying into Mimic. Moses is impressed and asks Namorita if he has told her how sexy she is today.  She replies by saying not enough. Sasquatch is on the ground with Mimic as he cradles himself in pain repeating, "Ohgodohgodohgod."
In the Yashida residence:
Mariko is upset over seeing herself dead in her living room.  Nocturne comforts her by saying that it's okay because it's not really her. Morph chimes in by stating that dead Markio is really more like another person, and that she was probably even straight. Mariko is pissed off with his comment and lashes out at Morph. He explains that he was just kidding. Nocturne is the only one who notices that a time portal has just opened up on top of them.  "Hey, what the- ?"
Meanwhile Sasquatch informs Mimic, who is still shaking all over that the Atlantean are coming and that they need to think of something to do. Mimic, in a shaking voice informs Sasquatch that the Tallus says the mission finished. Sasquatch wonders how the mission can be finished if they never began it. "Who finished our mission?"
And then...A time portal hovers above a bloodied Illyana as she stands over the unmasked body of the Black Knight, sword in one hand, Black Knight's helmet in the other…

Unnatural Instincts - part 1
A time portal opens up atop of a desert-like nothingness, sand and sky and nothing, including time and place."Oof." The Exiles land on the sand, the Timebroker has brought them back to nothing for a briefing before their next mission.
 Calvin and Illyana get into an argument, he suspects her (quite correctly) of killing the Avengers. She vehemently denies it and states that there was a plane crash. and that Moses Magnum might have done it. (Morph has now turned himself into a referee, demanding a fair fight) While still clutching the helmet of the Black Knight, Illyana accuses Calvin of bullying her and that maybe one of the other Exiles might have done it. Calvin defends them by saying that he knows them and not her. Illyana slugs him and sends Calvin hurtling towards the ground."You want to keep taking out your feelings out on me because you lost your girlfriend, fine. There’s plenty more where that came from."
An interruption by the Timebroker, stops the fighting, he needs to explain and clarify the details of their next mission,"Why don’t you have a seat and make yourselves comfortable while I explain the details." Their next mission will be fast paced,"when things start to happen they will happen fast – so you will need to be on top of it right from the word’ go." Time broker shows the team a side-by-side image of Alex Summers and Alex Summers in his Havok helmet. Pointing a baton at the screen, an image of Alex Summers as Davinci’s Man (think four arms, four legs, a representation of a joining) is shown to the group. Timebrokers goes on to tell them that, Alex Summers is a mutants of too much power because he is subspatially joined to every other Alex Summers in every other existence, and was at one point referred to as the nexus of all realities, and that one some level, each Alex was aware of the other’s existence. Alex was used as a back door for Timebroker to connect the different dimensions. A bored Morph starts the throw a paper airplane. "Morph stop that."
Time brokers goes on explaining how each Alex subconsciously designed a similar headdress to represent the coming together and separating of life, which are important paths that make up multi-dimensional actuality. Alex being some what aware of the other Alexs affected his personality, his memories, and his powers which made him unstable. This instability began to cause ripples in the different dimensions which created a need for the team to come into the different dimensions and fixing the damage.
 Shocked looks all around the group, a confused one from Morph, as Time broker proceeds to inform them that Alex, like many other back doors was causing a bug in the system so the Timebrokers decided to remove him from all existence. The death of every Alex was planned and coordinated but a few survived including Alex 616 and another Alex that was evil, managed to survive and live in one space.. Good Alex was released and came back to occupy his body but they are about to switch places once again and evil Alex will kill Carter (the child that helped pull the good Alex consciousness back into his body) and Nicholas Gleason, a wolf mutant, along with many others, their job is to make sure that the two little boys live, by any means necessary.
Meanwhile, Earth 616, Xavier’s School...
Fun and games, the children are engaged in a game of touch football, Nicholas (a werewolf cub) claims to have made a touch down."Touchdown! Jerry Rice in his prime got nothin’ on me!" As Carter announces that he already tagged Nicholas out, Nick gets angry, Juggernaut tells them to chill out as Alex intervenes telling to take it down a notch and that Carter did touch Nick. Enraged, Nick claims that Alex always takes Carter’s side and that it wasn’t fair, but Alex says that he is fair and that Nick just doesn’t like it when he’s wrong. Nick succumbs to his werewolf instincts and starts to parrot Alex then takes a sharp slash at his stomach with his nails. Alex doesn’t recoil in time, Carter reels in fear, Juggernaut stands in shock,"Holy mother- -" Blood gushes forth from Alex’s wound.
 Nurse Annie and Paige are talking in the nurses office about a recent trip romantic trip of Annie and Alex to Bistro 21 in the Felix Faure district. Gushing about Alex and her romantic trip, she seems in a daze as Juggernaut carries Alex into the office."Wow, sometimes I forget how big you are, Cain. Alex looks almost as small as Carter in- -." Shock sets in as the bleeding Alex is set down on a bed. His organs are exposed and Annie is frantic,"I need a-I need a doctor!"
Carter and Nicholas are watching from behind, Nicholas repeats how he didn’t mean to and it was an accident, no one seems to be paying any attention to him, or blaming him.
And just as a doctor is needed, one is delivered. The Exiles teleport in, everyone ready for some action: Mimic, Morph, and Heather stand in battle position, Sunfire has her fist fired up and ready. Illyana has her sword drawn. Nocturne stands facing the X-Men team. Juggernaut sees them,"Oh man, what now? Everyone behind me!" Juggernaut demands to know who the Exiles are. Mimic is shocked to see Juggernaut with the X-Men, on the good guys’ side. Heather questions what’s happening to Havok as Juggernaut demands from her, how she knows him."Long story." Being that a doctor is needed, and that one is there, the X-Men let Heather help Havok and put questions aside.
Mimic checks Tallus, Havok is still savable since he is still unconscious and bad Havok hasn’t arrived yet."Ah, to be a hero again. And not the sandwich." Morph is posing as Caesar as Mariko tells Juggernaut that they are here to help then questions him as to if he is really Juggernaut. Her questions are confirmed when a worried Juggernaut roars back at her,"Who’s asking?" As Mimic checks Tallus again, he pauses is distress, Nocturne ask what going on as Morph looks seriously at Tallus and says"‘Made—in-- Korea.’ That explains a lot." Tallus tells the group that it is now too late for Alex. Bad Alex has arrived and the only thing that matters is to keep the kids alive.
 Juggernaut hears Mimic talking about the kids and gets protective, he lets them know that they aren’t getting any where near the kids, Juggernaut cracks his massive knuckles. Mimic and Nocturne give in and tell him that’s fine as long as he gets the kids away from Havok now, since there isn’t much time. Enraged that Mimic is besmirching his teammate’s good name, Cain screams at Mimic and straddles to fight with him. Morph has now become Super Chicken- the tiny white chicken that wears a cape to show his heroism, otherwise, nothing more that a chicken. Heather screams that she can’t stop the bleeding, Annie pleads that Alex can’t die.
 Mimic pulls his arms back for some punches Colossus style. He gives reasoning one last chance, telling Juggernaut that there isn’t enough time and that either he takes the kids away or they do. CHANG! Juggernaut clocks Mimic across the cheek, Illyana hunches ready to attack Juggernaut back with her sword as Super Chicken squawks that the sky is falling. The fighting stops as Heather screams that she can’t do anything and that Alex is about to flat line, the kids need to be taken out of there at once, Bad Alex is on his way. Beeeeeeeeppppp!!!! As he flatlines, Annie screams at them for not doing anything. Mimic yells for Nocturne and Morph to get the kids out of there. CHANG! Another blow from Juggernaut. Carter stands over Alex trying to pull him back once again. Heather chides him to go as she puts her hands on Carter’s shoulders. Annie screams for Heather to get her hands off Carter and Paige starts to husk."Something is wrong with Alex, Mom- -" Heather tells Annie to listen to Carter and get the kids to safety. Annie still oblivious to what is happening to Alex defends Alex by saying that he would never do anything to hurt the kids, he has become like a father to Carter. Bad Alex wakes,"Unnh..."
Heather, as she changes into Sasquatch tells Annie that Alex was like a father, now he’s extremely dangerous. She tells Mimic that they are going to get the kids out of there. Annie looks surprised and hopeful as Alex sits up and stares down Sasquatch."Tell them everything is all right." But it’s not,"Out of all the meat available in this place, he picks you as his woman? The man is an idiot." Annie begins to realize that something is wrong, as Evil Alex confronts Carter for pulling good Alex out of the coma and leaving him stuck in"that hellish limbo." He sends a blast of solar energy at a scared and perplexed Carter, but the blast is thrown off target as Mimic punches Bad Havok. The blast doesn’t miss entirely and glazes and knocks out Carter hitting the roof as well. Annie catcher her son and Juggernaut shields them from roof debris. Juggernaut realizes that the Exiles were telling the truth and that Alex just tried to kill Carter, Paige tells him to move and get the kids out of there like"the Sasquatch lady said!"
Mimic tells them all to get on it, as he and Sasquatch stay to fend off Bad Havok, the others head off with the kids. They realize that Nicholas has run off in the excitement. Juggernaut asks where Warren is because he has healing blood, which Carter is in need of at the moment. Illyana tells them to just tell her where because she can teleport. Mimic and Bad Havok fight, Bad Havok calls Mimic"Colossus" as it seems that Mimic has him pinned to the ground. As Mimic tells him that he’s not Colossus, Bad Havok unleashed a solar blast at him,"You’re a strong one, Colossus- ...I am the power of the sun!!" Mimic is sent hurtling into a medical bed and some equipment."God, it feels good to have a body again after all these years." Sasquatch throws Bad Havok through a wall and into a hallway where the rest of the group in running in. As Bad Havok pushes himself up, Sasquatch carries an unconscious Mimic into the hall way and threatens to kill Bad Havok if her friend Mimic is dead. Bad Havok tells her that he needs far less motivation and will kill for any reason at all. Paige tells the Exiles that Warren is in Lobo Tech labs in White Plains with Iceman; Illyana tells her that she can find it but Mariko doesn’t trust Illyana and goes with her to find Warren.
Outside of the Mansion, Annie pleads that Carter needs a doctor. Nocturne adds that Mimic looks like he need one as well but their"resident doctor is inside hammering that psycho." She also tells them that they need to find Nicholas as well and keep him safe from Bad Havok, Paige, still confused asks what’s going on. Morph tells her that it’s complicated just as Wolverine appears and tells him to uncomplicate it. Nocturne tells them that their Alex has basically been taken over by another evil consciousness and that they were warned that this would happen. Wolverine asks if they were sent to save the real Alex. Annie is some what relieved that the man who tried to kill her son isn’t"her Alex." Nocturne tells Wolverine by name that they were sent here to save the two kids and Wolverine heads into the woods with Paige because he just saw Nicholas running into the woods. Nocturne sends Morph with them to help."Righty HO, Nocturne! I’ll give your regards to Stanley Livingston, I presume?" Morph has now changed into a moustached adventurer. Nocturne questions Annie if Nightcrawler is at the mansion also."Yes, why? Do you know him?" She tells her that he’s her father. (As if the resemblance wasn’t enough.)
 In the woods, Morph suggests to Husk that maybe she should have shown Illyana and Sunfire more specifically where Worthington is. Paige tells him that she couldn’t because they are somewhere that she has a strong aversion to. Morph begins to tells her that Sunfire is a really good friends of his when Paige interrupts him saying that Carter means a lot to her but that someone else can get Warren who’s"faster and more suited to being around that place than I am." She apologizes and explains that she was almost killed by a bunch of werewolves there and it hasn’t all left her yet. Wolverine has led them to Nicholas who is hiding in a bush below some trees. Paige tells Nicholas that they are here to take him back to Xavier’s and that no one blames him for what happened. Wolverine smells something just as the werewolves hiding behind Nicholas start parroting the group. „Hello again Meat." The three adults look on shocked, Morph tries to break the tension."Um...Is this some kind of Haiku game?"
Meanwhile in White Plains, NY, Warren and Iceman are looking around the remains of the Lobo Tech building. Iceman gets annoyed and questions Warren as to what exactly they are looking for and why it was taking so long. Warren snaps back by telling Iceman that he’s already told him five times that he didn’t know and that he didn’t have to come with him. Iceman apologizes for being so irritable lately and Warren tells him that it’s alright because that are all used to it. Warren finds what he’s looking for: a memo from his uncle Burt to Maximus Lobo concerning Experiment 29-D. Warren is surprised that his uncle is still involved in his family business despite being in prison and having killed his parents. Suddenly his com interrupts with a voice asking for Warren Worthington or anyone who knows him. Warren responds and is informed by the voice that he just wanted to kill them all especially his little girlfriend and that he can smell Warren on her."Is there any part of her you want me to save for you? Don’t you remember the voice of your old friend, Lobo?"
Just them Illyana and Mariko teleport to their location, Warren and Iceman are confused but Warren is too concerned for Paige to worry about them. Illyana demands Warren’s attention but Warrens brushes her off by telling them that whatever they are here for can wait because her need to go help the woman he loves. Iceman is floored by the declaration. Illyana on the other hand is not in the least amused, and tells Warren that his healing blood is needed back at the mansion to save the kid so they can finish their mission and she can get back home."I will take your blood back to the mansion with or without the rest of your body."

Unnatural Instincts - part 2
One mile North of Xavier’s School For the Gifted (Five Minutes Ago.)...
Husk ask Wolverine if he can take the werewolves as they loom over the her, Wolverine and Morph, ready to start ripping them to shreds. Morph chimes in to add his hope that Wolverine can take them. The werewolves, including little Nicholas, start parroting them. As Nicholas watches, the trio is attacked, two werewolves go after Husk as Morph and Wolverine each face one. As a werewolf slices into Wolverine he commands Husk to take Nicholas away from the fight.
Lobo is pleased that he has drawn blood, “Did I take you unaware ‘Wolverine’? Were you overconfident and surprised by my speed and agility? Were you shocked to learn my bones are strong enough to match up to your metal claws? The natural bones of Homo-superior? Nature adapting to survive the ‘new threat’ of metal? ‘Yes Wolverine, you can take them- - right?’” Husk freaks out as two werewolves surround her, she isn’t ready to deal with them again and can’t get away to take Nicholas away. Morph has changed into Colossus and has one werewolf in a choke hold, and is fighting off two others. “God! This is horrible! I can’t think of anything funny to say!” Husk falls to the floor and the two werewolves prepare to attack her. As Wolverine lays pinned to the ground with a werewolf on top of him, he tells Nicholas to listen to him and run to get help. An angry Nicholas stares back, but the anger soon turns to sorrow as he watches the werewolves tear into the people he knew as friends and mentors. Wolverine tells him to not be a slave to instinct and that it only gets you into trouble because he knows. SCHLIP SHRECK SHRIP
At Xavier’s Institute For the Gifted (now)...
Shbow! Mimic and Sasquatch are blown out of the school right through the wall onto the lawn of the estate. Mimic lays on the floor unconscious and Sasquatch pushes herself off the ground. Bad Havok comes through the hole and is annoyed that they are still alive, “Are you dead yet? Cause you’re getting boring. I want to tear someone else apart for a while.” Bad Havok goes on to tell them how he wanted the body of Carter for leaving him in the void while pulling Good Alex out. Standing out in the sun her recharges himself and unleashes another blast of solar power at the now awake Mimic and Sasquatch.
Nightcrawler looks out of the window and witnessed the battle, just then his bedroom door swings open and Nocturne, Juggernaut, Annie holding Carter all walk in. “Dad!” “What? Damn it!”he exclaims in German. “I knew I should have been more careful.” Nocturne begins to explain how he’s not her real father, then decides that it would be too confusing and take too long. Juggernaut chimes in saying that the confusing issues get worse and that Alex has gone nuts and is trying to kill everyone and Carter need to get to a doctor right away. Nightcrawler returns to the window and sees Bad Havok standing over Sasquatch and Mimic about to blast them again. Nightcrawler expresses their need to get down there and help or else Mimic and Sasquatch will end up worse off than Carter. Nocturne suggest that Kurt teleport them down there so that she might be able to posses Bad Alex. With a smirk on his face Juggernaut has an idea. “Nightcrawler needs to go with us and then help us get the kid to the hospital but- - you ever heard of a fastball special, Kurt junior? … I saw Colossus do this with Wolverine once, and I always wanted to try it.” As Nocturne demands to be put down, Nightcrawler hurries to open the window and Nocturne is thrown at Bad Havok, she goes through him and lands on the ground next to Mimic and Sasquatch. “Dammit! Juggernaut could have killed me...Are you guys ok?”
Bad Havok stands in a shocked daze, gripping at his stomach, it was too hard for Nocturne to possess him but she seems to have weakened Bad Havok’s hold on the body. Good Havok resurfaces for a few seconds, enough time for him to tell them that it’s too hard to get back and that Bad Havok is too strong, he struggles to hold on a little longer, “Is Carter- - is Annie- - are they safe?” Nocturne tells them that they are safe and with Juggernaut and Nightcrawler on their way to the hospital but Good Havok tells her not to tell him because them he’ll know, but it was too late, Bad Havok heard everything and knows where to find them. Good Havok tells them to kill him because there’s no other choice. Nocturne readies some hex bolts but says that they probably aren’t strong enough to kill him and she rather not anyway, “Are you sure there is no other way?” but just as she is about to blast Bad Havok regains control and says that there is no way period.
Lobo Tech, White Plains, NY...
Magik stands ready to attack Archangel, as Sunfire, Iceman, and Archangel stand staring at her. Sunfire questions Magik if she is actually serious about killing Warren and taking his blood back to the mansion in a bucket. She tells her it’s pointless and that even if they complete their mission it doesn’t mean that it’s over and they get to go home. “...it never works that way.” Magik is determined to get home and that any time might be the time that they get to go home. The girls argue some more, “Magik don’t be stupid! These are the X-Men, and...” Iceman stands confused “Wow! What the heck is going on here? Aren’t these two supposed to be dead?” as Archangel decides that he has had enough the bickering and wants to get to help Husk. “The bucket it is!” Magik strikes at Archangel, he blocks with his gauntlet as Iceman looks on amazed. “So that’s what those things are for.” After being commanded to take out Sunfire, Iceman tells him that he is way ahead of him and he encases Sunfire in a shell of ice. “I will get home again with or without your help!” Magik takes another swipe at Archangel with her sword, she misses and he clocks her across the chin and knocks her out cold. “Dude you got steel lining in those gloves?” “No, I’m just bad-ass.” “No Kidding.” As Archangel hold up Magik’s sword the guys get ready to go save Husk. Just then, Sunfire melts her way out of the ice and offers to come along and help. She acknowledges that things got way out of hand and explains that they are from another reality and only came to help. Archangel accepts her help and explanation but asks about leaving Magik on the ground. “She looks comfortable to me,” Mariko replies with a smirk. “ She and I- -we’re not really close.”
Once again, one mile North of Xavier’s School For the Gifted...
Nicholas screams for the werewolves to stop. “Why boy?” Nicholas goes on to explain that the X-Men gave him a home and place to stay, that no one liked him but they were all nice to him and that Husk tried to help him fit in when he first arrived. The werewolves berate him for wanting to fit in. “Fit in? You don’t want to ‘fit in’ with them. You are a wolf cub. The true Homo Superior. You were drawn to us as well as we’re drawn to one another. It is not them you ‘fit in’ with, young Nicholas of the emerging wolf species, it is us. Nicholas realizing that there’s no reasoning with the werewolves and try to buy Husk and Wolverine some time by telling the werewolves that there’s a whole school of other emerging species down the road and that if they keep Husk and Wolverine alive they would make good hostages for Archangel who lives at the school as well. Lobo agrees that it’s a good idea and that he will go to Archangel instead of waiting for him to come to them. Lobo tells the werewolves to bring Wolverine and the other two but the werewolves reveal that it’s too late for “the pale one.” Lobo is satisfied that with two hostages. They run towards the mansion and yell for Nicholas to keep up and they’ll teach him their ways because he is one of them now.
On the road leaving Xavier’s...
As the group drives towards the hospital, Juggernaut is teasing Nightcrawler for not being able to drive. He defends himself by saying that Xavier has jets and that he can teleport and that he would be doing that right now but the hospital is too far. Annie asks if they can take a jet but Nightcrawler tells her that they wrecked a few lately and that Cyclops’ group is doing something big. He assures her that Carter will be alright and he will start jumping them there when they get withing ten miles. Annie checks on Carter once again and tells them that he looks alright but she just wants the doctors to check on his concussion. She thanks them for their help and questions them about what happened with Havok. As werewolves stand in the road ahead, Nightcrawler assures her that it’ll all be sorted out later and that they should concentrate on Carter for now. Juggernaut tell Nightcrawler that there are some dogs in the road ahead, he dismisses him telling Juggernaut that they are neighborhood dogs and that they’ll move. He reasons with Annie saying that Carter probably wouldn’t have been hurt in the first place if he weren’t associated with the X-Men. “Kurt- -it’s them wolves! We should have killed ‘em when we had the chance, elf!” A werewolf jumps onto the hood of the truck and punches through the windshield. Juggernaut yells for Nightcrawler to get Annie and the kid out of there. Nightcrawler reaches for Annie and asks her to take his hand. She’s afraid but he assure her that it’ll be alright, suddenly a werewolf grabs his neck and Nightcrawler teleports out, purple smoke. Juggernaut fights with the werewolves and catches a glimpse of Bad Havok coming up to them. “Oh hell..” Bad Havok sends a solar blast at the truck; the werewolves, and everyone in the vehicle are all sent flying.
At Xavier’s Institute For the Gifted...
Mimic, apparently coherent now, asks if everyone is alright and suggest that they go find the others. Just then Nicholas runs up to them holding Morph’s dismembered hand. He tells them that the werewolves just attacked the truck and is killing everyone in it and are en route to the school to kill everyone here. Sasquatch recognizes Nicholas as the other half of their mission. Nocturne, while holding her side comments how what a great job they are doing. Nocturne is confused about the wolves and questions Nicholas about them as Sasquatch turns back into her human form. “...A what have you got there?” “I don’t know his name, but her can change shapes and they ripped him apart and this was all the, you know- - this was the only piece I could find and I don’t want to lose it for when we have to bury him.” Sasquatch affirms that it’s Morph’s arm. Nicholas tells them how he wanted to help the werewolves kill but at the same time he didn’t want to because he liked Husk and that Wolverine is right because he doesn’t have to do what his insides are telling him and kill people. “Can you pleas put him back together, please? Nicholas kneels on the ground holding up Morph’s arm with tears in his eyes.
On the road...
Bad Havok stands on top of the burning truck and yells for Annie and Carter to come out. He sees that there’s no one there but Juggernaut and the smell of rotten eggs. “Jeez, that reeks. What’d you do, fat boy? Cook ‘em and eat ‘em? Huh? You get hungry and reach around for a little drive-time snack?” His last sentence is parroted, as bad Havok turns he sees there werewolves holding the bloody body of Wolverine.
