Somewhere in a dense jungle was a classified military base where a new technology was being tested to do something terrible, which got the attention of a certain group of individuals. Who were currently in the jungle watching the base
"Okay sound off team" the leader said
"Beast here, Angel here, Marvel girl here, Cyclops here, Banshee here, Storm here, Dazzler here" the team said
"Okay let's go" the leader said
"Logan I hate to ask this, but what are we doing here?" Beast asked
"This is the headquarters of Project Wideawake, an anti-mutant organisation developed secretly by the US Government, mainly the NSA and the CIA to deal with the growing Mutant population explosion" Logan said
"But how does that work, since there are mutants world wide" Cyclops, one of the two teenage mutant said
"You don't want to know, considering what we're here to deal with" Logan said as he deployed his claws "And we're also here to extract a friend of ours"
"Who?" Banshee asked
"Forge, he's been pressed into helping with one factor of Wideawake" Logan said
"No way" Storm said
"This way" Logan said slashing a fence with his claws. "Marvel Girl can you pick the lock with your powers?"
"You got it" Marvel said using her powers opening the door allowing them to get inside
"What is that?" Banshee asked as they saw a massive android
"That is Wideawake's end goal, the way they are going to eradicate the mutant 'threat'" Logan said
"And that is?" Banshee asked
"Get down" Dazzler said as several figures walked into the room
"So what is this?" one of the new figures asked
"This, Senator Kelly is a Sentinel" a short man said
"And it does?" Kelly asked
"It will eventually be capable of tracking and disposing of mutants" the man said
"So when can we deploy them?" Kelly asked
"It won't be for awhile" a military person said "Since this is just the prototype and we have no actual mutants to test the tracking program"
"What is it made out of?" Kelly asked as he looked at the machine
"A recently developed space age polymer with a few ceramic parts" the short man said
"So we can use them against people like this Magneto character?" Kelly asked
"My dear, dear senator while there are those out there who can control metal and magnetic fields, Magneto is simply a myth or Urban legend jsut like the boogeyman, those sock stealing trolls etc. He doesn't exist" the short man said
"Then what about these X-Men" Kelly said
"We're busted" Marvel girl whispered
"They are real, but only in the fact they attempt to maintain a peaceful co-existence between humans and Mutants. But sadly even though it is sort of noble they are mistaken" the short man said
"Still it is admirable they are trying" the military man said "But they will see how fruitless it is" he smirked "Isn't that right...Wolverine" he said turning to the area where Logan and his team was making them come out of hiding.
"Do I know you?" Wolverine asked
"It still seems you have amnesia, pity I was hoping that you would remember, now who else do we have here?"
"So who are you?" Beast asked
"I'm Major William Stryker" the military man said "and these fine gentlemen are Senator Robert Kelly and Bolivar Trask"
"Nice to meet you" Wolverine said "But unfortunately we can't let you continue this plan"
"And how are you going to stop us?" the shorter man identified as Bolivar Trask before the sirens started sound
"That's how" Wolverine said
"Self destruct has been activated, time till detonation 5 minutes" a computer said
"Shit" Stryker said
"Have all backups pulled" Trask said "You have no idea what you have done here today"
"I beg to differ" Wolverine said before he and the rest of the X-Men started to run
"Kill at least one of them" Stryker said
Outside the X-Men were running for their jet when the explosions starter. Looking back the X-Men halted and when looked back to see massive fireballs sprouting all over the place.
"We better double time it" Wolverine said making the team rush "Angel!"
"I'm on it" Angel said taking to the skies looking around to see if there anyone chasing them, he looked around seeing no one following the team, he turned around and saw nothing "we're in the clear" he said just as a missile appeared
"ANGEL BEHIND YOU!" Marvel Girl shouted
"WHOA!" Angel said dodging the missile before it came back around forcing him to try and avoid it. Looking back Angel noticed something different about the missile so he stopped
"What are you doing?" Wolverine shouted
"I think it's a fake" Angel said as the missile died right in front of him "I guess it was" he laughed before a massive beam of energy shot up like a geyser where he was floated making him released a primal scream of pain
"NO!" Banshee shouted as Marvel Girl covered her mouth. Once the beam died down there was no sign of Angel
"MOVE!" Wolverine shouted as a until of soldiers were coming at them. Soon they got to their jet and got in. Once they were save Wolverine looked back and noticed that the team was grieving, he whispered a curse under his breath before flying the team home. Storm looked at their team leader and rested a hand on his shoulder as he silently cried
"And he was never the same after that?" a student asked
"No" Beast said as he was standing at a window teaching a class. "And we've all changed since that day" he said looking at his blue furry hand
"So are the X-Men dead?" another student asked
"No, no they are not" Beast said before the bell rang "But that will be a discussion for another time, class dismissed" he said while smiling before he took off his spectacles and rubbed his eyes and looked sorrowfully out of the window
"It's been twenty years since that mission" a voice said as Storm walked into the room
"And it still weighs heavily on us, Dazzler and Banshee left to do their own things, Logan went into isolation leaving you me, Jean and Scott here to become teachers" Beast said
"Do you think he'll do it again?" Storm asked
"Maybe, but not for a long time" Beast said
"Hey" Jean said walking in
"Yes?" Beast asked
"It seems we've lost some students" Jean said
"Don't tell me, it's that group" Storm said
"Yep" Jean said
"They'll be back" Beast said
"Come on we should be getting back" a girl with brown hair said
"Easy Kitty, we'll be home before Midnight" another girl said
"I agree" a third girl said
"Okay" Kitty said as she was with her friends.
"You think the professors will ground us" a guy said
"I think they will Alex" Another guy said
"Especially if it is Scott" a German teenager said
"How did I get you guys to talk me into this?" Kitty asked before they passed an electronic store
"Great, Senator Deli" Alex said
"What did that Rick head want?" the German teenagers
"Its Dickhead Kurt" Kitty said
"Can't believe this guy is running for President" the third girl said
"Yeah, because nothing say great for human-mutant cohabitation then Presidential candidate Robert Kelly" another guy said
"Easy Remy" Alex said
"I think we should be getting back" the second girl said
"Something's wrong Professor?" Storm asked
"There is an odd feeling in the air" Professor X said
"What do you mean?" Beast asked looking concerned
"We're about to be attacked" Xavier said
"What do you mean?" Beast asked before the sounds of helicopters roared in the background
"Get the kids into the hiding spots" Xavier said
"I'm glad those kids are out of the house" Beast said as he ran off while Xavier looked out the window as soldiers descended
'Jean, have you, Storm and Cyclops ready to defend the mansion'
"What about the sub-basement?" Jean asked
"I just hope they will not be able to access it" Xavier said as he typed something into a laptop on his laptop. Suddenly the door to hsi office broke open and soldiers rushed in "Good evening gentlemen, can I help you with something?"
"Take him" the leader said as another soldier shot him with a tranq dart
"Man it's good to be home" Kitty said stretching before she noticed Alex had stopped "You okay?"
"No, something's wrong...SCOTT!" Alex shouted
"Where be everyone?" Remy asked
"I'm not liking this" Kurt said as he looked around
"Guys" one of the girls said
"What is it Anna?" Alex asked
"The door to Xavier's office has been smashed" Anna said
"What?" Kitty asked
"What happened here?" Alex asked
"Can you find anyone Betsy?" Kitty asked
"A few, but majority of the mansion are gone" Betsy said
"Where?" Alex asked
"In the kitchen hiding space" Betsy said
"Okay be on guard" Alex said as he started to charge up with powers with Remy and Kurt backing him up while Kitty, Anna and Betsy stayed out and keep guard. They then reached where the safe room was and Alex slid across a panel and typed in the code as the fridge slid forward. Remy and Kurt hid behind the counter before someone grabbed Alex and threw them across the room
"WHOA!" Alex said as a seven foot tall mountain of muscle walked out
"Peter, Peter it's me Alex" Alex shouted holding his arms up
"Alex...ALEX thank goodness you are okay" Peter said helping him up "Who else was with you?"
"Anna, Remy, Kitty, Kurt and Betsy. Anyone with you?" Alex asked
"Amara, Teresa, Bobby, Jubilee and Sam" Peter said
"That's not a lot" Remy said
"Nyet" Peter said
"Can we access the sub-basement?" Betsy asked
"Here we go" Anna said accessing Xavier's laptop. Suddenly the locks to the sub-basement was deactivated and gave them access to the lower levels.
"Okay, let's move" Alex said as the group descended into the sub-basement
"Damn, I guess Cerebro's out of the question since I'm not able to get into it" Betsy said
"What about the war room?" Peter asked
"We're good" Bobby said as he walked out the door
"Okay let's find out where the others are" Alex said
"I'm on it" Bobby said as he accessed the computer making a holographic globe show "That's not good"
"What is it?" Alex asked
"I'm not getting any readings about them" Bobby said
"Nothing?" Kitty asked
"No" Bobby said
"So what should we do now?" Amara asked
"I'm not sure" Alex said
"Welp, this is a fine situation we be finding ourselves in" Remy said
"Hang on, I'm getting something" Bobby said
"Where?" Alex asked
"Just outside of Juarez Mexico" Bobby said
"What could be out there?" Anna asked
"I don't know, but let's head there" Alex said
"Okay, remember code names only" Alex said as they walked out wearing the stand X-Men uniform which was a navy blue suit with a golden yellow 'X' across their chests.
"what is this place?" Anna asked
"I have no idea" Alex said
"Who could be out here?" Kitty asked before a shotgun sounded making the teenagers duck for cover
"A dude with a gun apparently" Sam said
"WE COME IN PEACE!" Alex shouted out
"THEN LEAVE, BEFORE YOU BECOEM PIECES!" a gruff voice said
"WE SAW THAT THERE WAS A SIGNAL HERE FROM XAVIER'S MANSION" Betsy said
"TELL HIM THAT I DON'T WANT ANY!" the voice shouted
"WE CAME HERE BECAUSE...he's gone" Kitty said softly
"What do you mean?" the gruff voice asked as he rounded the corner
"The mansion was attacked, we're the only ones who avoided capture" Peter said
"I'm sorry to hear that" the man said as he walked back to the house that was nearby
"And that's it, we came all this way for...for this a washed up old bum!"
"You don't know what you're talking about Kitty" Alex said "Isn't that right...Logan!"
G'day Guys Grizz here with something I've been waiting to do for years, an X-Men project and since I was watching a bit of X-Men The Last Stand so I decided to write this up, Now I'll be taking cues from both the comics and the movie with Days of Future Past as a base for the fic since that is one of the best X-Men storylines even though it is only two issues long. Also yes I killed Angel off before the halfway point, that's because I have a plan for him in the future since I'm going to have about three different villain factions taking on thsi new X-Men team lead by Wolverine also there might be flashback missions giving details to the back story
So until next time I'll catch you on the flipside
