6Hi! This chapter brings in our favorite controlled of metal and he's based off of the original X-Men trilogy portrayal for the most part. So picture Ian McKellen back then. Haha.
This is another two-part chapter, so the next one will be up soon enough.
Hope everyone likes it.
"You are indeed a fool if you do this," Enchantress said to her one of her old allies who was turned around from her and dressed in a black jacket and black fedora on top of a suspension bridge in New York City.
"My dear, Enchantress, I have a responsibility to all mutants everywhere," Magneto said as he turned to face her.
"But this once has caused far too much trouble," Enchantress said bitterly over Shadow King's incompetence.
"My dear, don't you think I know this? Who do you think made Apocalypse aware of her presence in the first place?" Magneto grinned to himself with his main rival for mutant dominance removed.
"So you're not the only one to use those two to your advantage, I see," Enchantress said with a laugh.
"If that Latverian fool thinks that no one else in our little "community" wouldn't find about his trick, then he is sadly mistaken," Magneto said with smirk.
"Even so, what you're planning to do will be in vain," Enchantress countered.
"Nonsense. As I told Charles, the chill you will all soon feel in the air is but taste of the storm coming," Magneto said as he then flew away.
Magneto traveled to his headquarters, Asteroid M and was greeted by his team the Brotherhood and his Acolytes.
"He has returned!" exclaimed Exodus, the most powerful and main acolyte, bowed down to the sight of his master walking the down the corridors of their orbiting headquarters in space.
Magneto was dressed in a tan costume with a red cape and his helmet was mostly black and had red on the part where his face was seen.
"Rise my acolyte," Magneto said while giving Exodus permission to stand up. "To all my Acolytes, the day will soon come with mutants take their rightful place as homo-superiors!" Magneto shouted out to his Acolytes while they in returned responded with cheers and clapping.
"Magneto, I trust we're going to move forward with the plan soon?" Mystique asked while walking with Magneto and Sabretooh after his speech.
"Indeed," Magneto said while walking them to the cells.
"Then what are we doing here?" Sabretooth growled in frustration.
"We're going to need a way to get there, and that is why the traitorous imbecile will come in handy," Magneto said while opening the cell to his often turn-coat acolyte.
"Master Magneto! Forgive me!" exclaimed Fabian Cortez, as he came over and dropped down to his knees in front Magneto.
"And why would I do that, Cortez?" Magneto asked to Cortez who looked fearful.
"Because I exist solely to serve you, my lord!" Cortez cried.
"So you say. Of course, your history of treachery cannot be ignored and perhaps it's time I make an example of you," Magneto said to Cortez who then pleaded for his life as his master was starting to walk away.
"Please! Master! I would do anything to prove my loyalty to you!" Cortez screamed and sobbed.
"Anything?" Magneto asked while grinning and turning around to see the little traitor breaking down.
"Yes, whatever you want! Allow me to repent!" Cortez screamed while sobbing in his hands.
"Very well, then. Just know this is your last chance to redeem yourself, Cortez," Magneto said while crossing his arms.
"Oh, thank you my master! What can I do?" Cortez asked while slowly rising to his feet.
"I need you to execute a couple of locals in another dimension," Magneto told Cortez who acted confused.
"Another dimension?" Cortez asked for clarification.
"Indeed. They are of little importance, but I want to establish trade there. So you will find a way for us to go there and you will execute them to prove your loyalty," Magneto told Cortez who nodded.
"Oh, of course, master! I will find us a way! And thank you for this chance at redemption!" Cortez exclaimed while being escorted out of his cell by a couple of acolytes.
"Nice trick, boss. The little pipsqueak won't last long against those two little girls," Sabretooth laughed.
"Indeed, Sabretooth. I not only get passage to their dimension, but also get to see Cortez die a humiliating death," Magneto said with a laugh while walking them to the hanger.
"Should I assemble the Brotherhood?" Mystique asked while loading her pistols.
"Yes, get them ready and tell all of them, especially Toad, not to ruin this!" Magneto yelled out in annoyance.
"Master, I have made contact with my friends in New Salem, Colorado and they have agreed to open a portal for us," Cortez said while kneeling down in front of Magneto.
"Excellent, Cortez. Inform them of the coordinates of our destination. Here is a description of your two targets," Magneto said while handing Cortez the folder. "And one more thing, you will go first to scout the way," Magneto told Cortez who was just fine with that.
Now, the Master of Magnetism would start to bring about the new age for mutants everywhere.
"This is what I wanted to show you," Elsa said while taking Anna to the cliff in the forest she tried to take her too yesterday before Shadow King interrupted.
"It's beautiful, Elsa," Anna said in awe as the cliff they were on overlooked the entire massive forest.
"I knew you would love it!" Elsa said while hugging her sister.
"Thank you, this is amazing," Anna said while still in awe.
"You deserve it. You're the best sister anyone could ever ask for," Elsa with a smile.
"Thank you. I just try to do what's right," Anna said while wiping a tear of joy from her sister's words to her.
"You do more than that. You and I both know, I haven't been there for you when you needed it, but you have stood by me no matter how much I pushed you away," Elsa said while staring off into the distance.
"It's because I love you," Anna said while pulling Elsa into a hug.
"And I love you too," Elsa said while returning the hug.
"We need to do this more often!" Anna exclaimed while Elsa agreed.
"We sure do!" Elsa exclaimed with a smile before they were interrupted by an annoying laugh from behind them.
"Haha! Sorry, to interrupt your pathetic "sister-bonding", but I have a job to do," Cortez laughed while holding up his blaster rifle.
Elsa made Anna and ice-sword and then charged her fists.
"You people need to get a life!" Anna screamed in frustration.
"She's right. We just want to spend time together, but you people are truly heartless," Elsa said with a glare.
"Oh that's some bold claims, Queen and Fifth Spirit!" Cortez laughed hysterically while Anna and Elsa just shared a glance at his insane behavior.
"So what do you want?" Elsa asked while not letting her guard down.
"Or better yet, leave," Anna said while pointing her sword at him.
"You fools! Your positions mean that then when I kill both of you, then your people will have no choice but to follow me! And then I will have army so that I can overthrow that old man!" Cortez boated. "That idiot thinks he could trick, Fabian Cortez! Well, he is the one being tricked here!" Cortez continued to boast before hearing a loud noise and then slowly turned around to see an earth giant. Cortez looked afraid and tried to run, but the earth giant just picked up and then threw him far away to the over side of the forest while he screamed loudly to his doom.
"Thanks!" Anna and Elsa waved to their friend.
"Now, let's go see how the festival is coming along," Anna said while she and Elsa walked down the cliff together.
"And check on our friends too," Elsa said thinking of Loki and Hela on the trail near the North Mountain across from her ice castle.
Magneto and his Brotherhood arrived to a beach next to a downed ship washed away long ago and stepped out of the metal spheres Magneto had made for them to travel im.
"Here we are," Magneto said while walking ahead before stopping.
"Now does everyone know the plan?" Mystique asked to the Brotherhood.
"Right you are, Mystique! Don't ya worry! Toad will come through!" Toad exclaimed though he was quickly shut up after being glared at by the others.
"You know me, Mystique. This will be a breeze," Avalanche said in a cocky tone.
"I'm just happy to be getting a fight, mates!" Pyro cackled.
"Yeah, whatever," Blob said bored.
"It's just another day for the Juggernaut," Juggernaut said while putting his hands into a fist.
"Just remember, you runts answer to me if you screw up," Sabretooth growled to them.
"Now, now, now. Let's not be too hard on them. Besides, it's time to get to work," Magneto said as he began to lead them away from the beach towards their objectives.
"Hey guys!" Anna and Elsa greeted Loki and Hela on the trail.
"Greetings," Loki said while reading a book.
"Any trouble?" Hela asked while mediating.
"Not really, expect for this one guy that tried to kill me and Anna, again, but one of the earth giants slung him across the forest," Elsa explained to them.
"Yeah, at least that was over quickly," Anna said with a sigh of relief.
"Thank the gods for that. It's not that I don't enjoy our little adventures, but I like to read every now and then," Loki said while turning the page.
"Yes, and do so enjoy my mediating almost as much as I enjoy battle!" Hela exclaimed.
"And we both enjoy spending time together," Anna and Elsa while smiling to each other.
"Your majesty!" Mattias screamed while appearing from the right side of the trail.
"General Mattias? Is everything okay?" Anna asked concerned, but thought it was strange he came from the opposite direction of Arendelle.
"Oh no!" Mattias yelled in fear, but Elsa noticed how his eyes turned yellow briefly.
"Forgive the interruption, but if I'm not mistaken, the ground is starting to shake," Loki noted as they began to feel what felt like an earthquake.
"And I feel like something is burning," Hela said as orange fire began to appear to the right of them.
"What's going on, general?" Anna asked distressed.
"The beginning of a new age!" Mattias laughed as he transformed into a blue-skinned woman.
"What?!" Elsa asked weirded out.
"My, you fools really are as dumb as you look! I would have shape-shifted as both as you and wreck your already fragile feelings by saying how much you hate each other as a cruel trick, but we're on the clock, so Pyro and Avalanche! NOW!" Mystique ordered out as Pyro and Avalanche appeared and began to confront them.
Avalanche hit the ground and knocked them off the side of the mountain. Loki used his magic and they all landed safely on their feet.
"Am I playing too rough for ya, losers!" Avalanche mocked them from the top of the trail before running off.
"Now go set an example over there," Mystique told Pyro while pointing at Elsa's ice castle.
"With pleasure!" Pyro laughed while heading over there to burn it.
"We need to contact brother, about this," Loki told them while making their way back to the top of the trail.
"Elsa, look!" Anna screamed in fear as her sister's ice castle was on fire.
"Marshmallow and the Snowgies!" Elsa screamed in panic while remembering her creations were still inside.
"Let's move!" Hela ordered them as they rushed to climb and get to the ice castle.
"I'm gonna put this out!" Elsa screamed while shooting the fire with her ice powers.
"Are they okay, Elsa?" Anna asked as Elsa quickly reviving Marshmallow and the Snowgies after putting the fire out.
"I don't recall seeing them the first time we came here," Loki remarked at them.
"Right, when I thought I lost Anna that day you all came here, I came back here very upset and they left to give me to time to sob and cry," Elsa said while retelling that painful experience.
Anna was almost taken back upon hearing that, but it just further proved how much her sister loved her too.
"But as we all know, you guys helped both of us," Anna said smiling while waving to Elsa's ice creations.
"Indeed. I suggest we regroup. I've already contacted brother and told him about our attackers. Hopefully Strange can pull up some information for us," Loki said while walking out the exit.
"Let's hope so," Hela said while studying the ice giant and then walking out with Anna and Elsa.
"Seriously, wizard?" Thor asked frustrated while walking with Stephen and Wanda in the Sanctum Santorum.
"I'm afraid so. Apparently someone named "Fabian Cortez" made a deal to teleport himself and group there with the residents in New Salem, Colorado. It's a place of witches and warlocks that have been living in secret ever since the Salem Witch trials ended hundreds of years ago," Stephen explained to them in shock.
"Is this "Cortez" the boss?" Steve asked as he and Natahsa were visiting and checking up on Silver Sable as she was recovering.
"No, that's, some guy called "Magneto". He can control metal from what I gather," Stephen told Steve whose eyes widen at hearing that.
"Do you know him, Steve?" Natasha asked to Steve as he was lost in thought.
"There was young boy I saved from a Hyrda base during World War II and on the way out, he saved me and my units from grenades thrown at us by making them go off in a different direction with his bare hands," Steve explained them while recalling that day.
"Are you serious, good captain?" Thor asked shocked.
"I am, Thor. His name was Erik Lehnsherr. He was a good kid. I even taught him how to play chess. I never knew what happened to him after we got him to safety and I went into the ice," Steve explained while remembering the kid that saved his life.
"Were these powers the results of experiments, Steve?" Natahsa asked trying to make sense of this.
"No. He told me had them before Hydra took him and his family prisoner. He explained that as his mother was being dragged away, he screamed in fear and anger, and tore down the metal gate she was taken through," Steve told them while still disgusted by Hyrda.
"Then he was born with powers like me?" Wanda asked while also feeling very sorry for what happened to that young kid and wishing she could meet him if it was possible.
"Yes, it would seem so. I didn't say anything because I knew the world wasn't ready for that, but as we all know, it's more common now. If this "Magneto" is that same kid I knew once after Anna and Elsa, then we need to move," Steve said while raising his shield up.
"That sounds like a solid plan, good captain! Let's go!" Thor said while walking over to the orb.
"I'm in too," Natahsa said while walking over to them.
"Let's get going then, Scarlet Witch," Stephen said as he and Wanda walked over to them.
"I'm ready, Dr. Strange," Wanda said as the orb teleported them to the location of Loki, Hela, Anna, and Elsa to begin to stop whatever this "Magneto" was doing there.
Steve himself wanted to see if this was the same good kid he once knew going down the wrong path and try to stop him.
"Brother, there you are," Loki greeted Thor, Stephen, Wanda, Steve, and Natasha as they arrived to help out.
"Of course, brother," Thor said while greeting Loki, Hela, Anna, and Elsa.
"Hey guys!" Anna and Elsa said together.
"Hello, maams. I promise you we will get to the bottom of this fast," Steve said disturbed over what might have happened to that good kid he once knew.
"Don't worry, ladies. We know what's at stake. So let's go," Natasha said as they started to walk around the forest and investigate.
"Dr. Strange, ahead!" Wanda exclaimed at the sight of a very large man.
"Your goose is cooked, Avengers!" Blob mocked as he slowly charged at them.
"Oh please, fool!" Hela yelled as she tried to slash as him.
Dr. Strange and Wanda were about to attack Blob together before another foe arrived on the scene.
"Can't stop the Juggernaut!" Juggernaut boasted as he charged at them.
Elsa froze his feet and caused him to slip.
"Don't you know who I am?!" I'm the Juggernaut, b…" Juggernaut started to rage before Anna slashed his helmet with her ice-sword.
"It's time to go!" Blob said as he and Juggernaut retreated while Steve threw his shield at them, to no avail.
"Everyone okay?" Steve asked concerned while catching his shield.
"We're fine, Steve," Natasha said as she and the others were keeping their guard up.
Everyone then decided to take a break and come with a plan.
"We need discover where they came from," Thor said while resuming the search with them as they continued the search.
"Tracking spell points in this direction," Stephen told them as they begin to follow the trail.
As they were walking towards the source of the disturbance, Elsa noticed a shadowy figure silently following them.
"You could be using your powers for so much more," said the voice of the shadowy figure as Elsa stopped and noticed this person concealed in the shadows within some trees.
"I don't who you are, but leave now," Elsa said while pointing her hands at this person.
"I'm only trying to help my people," the shadowy figure said to Elsa who was still in battle stance.
"Your people?" Elsa asked in disbelief.
"Oh yes, my dear. You and I are mutants. Homo-superior. Born with powers. In your dimension here, you're the first of our kind, aren't you?" the shadowy figure asked to Elsa.
"Maybe I am. Why do you care?" Elsa asked in a distrusting tone.
"Because I understand your hardships. Mutants are regarded as inferior creatures and hunted down like animals where I come from, when in reality, we are the ones that should be ruling over them," the shadowy figure said as he approached closer, but Elsa could still not see his face.
"That's just your fear. And fear cannot be trusted," Elsa countered and knowing all too well not to give into fear.
"Oh, of course. Just like your parents that locked you away, right?" the shadowy figure asked to Elsa who hesitated to answer.
"They have not been perfect, but not all of humanity is what you say it is," Elsa said thinking of her sister.
"I see. I had hoped you would join my cause willingly, but I see now I'll need other methods to secure your cooperation," Magneto angrily as he begin to attack Elsa.
"You really didn't think we could hear you?" Stephen asked sarcastically as he and the rest of the team came in and started to attack Magneto.
"It that you, Erik?!" Steve asked while fighting Magneto with them.
"Ah, Captain Rogers. If it isn't my "savior". Yes, it's me. Like you, I am fighting for what I believe in," Magneto said while fighting Steve. Though, unlike most of humanity, Captain Rogers was one of the few he did not strongly hate like the others and took no joy in fighting him.
"This is twisted what you're doing! Stop this!" Steve screamed while trying to get a hit in with his shield.
"Oh no, but for now I must depart," Magneto said as he re-directed Hela's swords, Thor's ax, and Steve shield back at them and then flew away, but not before noticing how the woman in red had an uncanny resemblance to his late wife and she appeared to be a mutant also.
"Is everyone okay?" Loki asked as everyone got back on their feet.
"Yes, brother! We need to track that fool down!" Hela yelled out in frustration.
"Let's keep following the tracking spell," Stephen said as they all continued on to their mission.
"The trap worked and the fools are following me. Time to retreat. We'll let them follow us back to Asteroid M and there we'll use the girl for our plan against the earth," Magneto told Mystique and Sabretooth as they lead the Brotherhood back to the metal spheres.
"Boss, don't we need a distraction for those runts?" Sabretooth suggested.
"Indeed. Toad, I need you to go scout that wrecked-ship over there and report back to me in ten minutes," Magneto ordered to Toad who seemed excited.
"Right you are Magneto! Never met a more upstanding master like you!" Toad exclaimed in joy.
"Enough, Toad," Magneto said while rolling his eyes.
"Yes, sir!" Toad said fearfully while hopping away to explore the ship.
"Magneto, I doubt Toad we'll be much of a threat to those idiots," Mystique interjected, knowing Toad would be practically useless.
"But he will buy us enough time to leave," Magneto said as he and the Brotherhood stepped into the metal spheres and took off into the sky before they were teleported back to earth in their dimension.
"What did he say to you, Elsa?" Anna asked to Elsa as they were getting closer to their destination.
"He tried to say I should use my powers to rule over everybody else and how humanity is evil," Elsa explained disgusted.
"Well, it's a good thing you're not like," Stephen said as they were just about there to where the tracking spell ended.
"Of course not. I've been saved by the best sister in the world more than once and she didn't even need powers like mine do it either," Elsa said while smiling to Anna.
"And Elsa has never cared about power and neither have I," Anna said while holding her sister's hand.
"Ah, siblings that don't care about or fight over power! A rarity, wouldn't you say, brother?" Loki asked sarcastically.
"It would appear that way," Thor said with a sigh.
"Fighting is in our family bloodline," Hela told her brothers.
"And in adoptions apparently," Loki slightly laughed as he, Thor, and Hela were having a silly debate without any actual violence for once.
"Are you okay, Steve?" Natasha asked concerned as Steve seemed shaken up.
"I'm okay, Nat. Thanks for asking. Just can't believe little Erik grew up to be a supervillain," Steve said sighing and wishing he could have done more.
"It's not your fault, Steve," Natasha said trying to cheer Steve up.
"Thanks, Nat," Steve said with a smile.
"Are you okay, Scarlet Witch?" Stephen asked as they were coming up a beach with a ship washed away on shore that Anna and Elsa recognized.
"I'm fine, Dr. Strange. Thanks for asking. It's just, I felt like for some strange reason I knew who Magneto was," Wanda said not even making sense of it herself.
"I have a feeling we'll find out soon enough why you think that," Stephen said as had solid idea why she felt that.
"There's mother and father's ship," Anna and Elsa said sadly while they and their friends began to look around for clues.
"Hey, Magneto! You'll never guess what I found!" Toad exclaimed happily then turned to panic as he saw his master and the Brotherhood ditched him again. And now he had to deal with being heavily outnumbered.
"Bloody hell! That's the third flippin' time this month!" Toad screamed in frustration and now was on the ground begging for his life from Hela's wrath.
"Start talking unless you want my sword to cut out your tongue," Hela threated while pushing her foot hard on Toad's chest.
"Okay! Okay! Okay! I'll you whatever you want! Just spare ole' Toad," Toad said giving in to Hela's demands.
"Excellent. Take it from here, brother," Hela said as Thor came over and picked Toad up by the neck.
"Talk. Where's your boss?" Thor asked while closing his fist around Toad's neck.
"How should I know? The sods ditched me again," Toad explained bitterly while Thor was not impressed.
"Do you want me to let my sister cut your tongue out?" Thor threatened to which Toad begged again for mercy.
"Alright! The boss probably stopped by the Mount on the way back to base," Toad explained to them who had no idea what he was talking about.
"What's the "Mount"?" Wanda asked confused.
"Don't know. But the boss must have portaled there," Toad said as Thor dropped down to the ground. "So you'll lemma go, right?" Toad asked foolishly while Hela came over and punched him in the face.
"No," Hela laughed after punching Toad in the face.
"Right. Okay, we'll try and send you guys to this "Mount" and see if Magneto is there. Scarlet Witch and I have to take care of some sorcerers that might be in league with Magneto," Stephen said as he contacted Wong and told him to get ready to teleport them back and begin the next step.
"If you're dealing with magic, then perhaps I should tag-along?" Loki asked while Thor also wanted to go.
"I agree. Plus having a non-magic user is also good to have in these kinds of situations," Thor said while walking over to them.
"That's fine and all, brothers, but I shall be accompanying these two," Hela said while pointing at Anna and Elsa.
"Thank you," Anna and Elsa said together to Hela.
"Steve and I are coming to. We're Avengers, after all. Aren't we, Steve?" Natasha asked with a laugh while Steve laughed back.
"We're more than that, Nat. We're family. We don't let anyone fight alone," Steve said while smiling and remembering all the amazing adventures he's had with them. Though, there will still challenges, of course. Like that kid he saved from Hyrda during World War II that is now on the dark side.
"Then good luck at the Mount," Stephen said as Steve, Natasha, Hela, Anna, and Elsa were teleported out of this dimension and back to his towards the location where Magneto might be at. "Let's go now," Stephen said as he, Wanda, Thor, and Loki were teleported to New Salem, Colorado to see who might be working for with Magneto in the magic community there.
Hope everyone liked that well enough. Must of the characters (outside of our main ones) and other details from other Marvel media I've read, played, and watched.
I do want to wrap this story up soon since the last MCU story I'm doing for a long time, but I''ll start not to rush that much.
The next chapter will be up sooner rather than later, hopefully.
