Chapter 6

I let out a groan as I set up and rubbed my head. I felt someone touch my shoulder and turned to see Hank.

"What happened?" I asked with a groan.

"Erik took Charles and the military kidnapped us." Hank explained.

"Where is Alex?" I questioned.

He shook his head and I let out a sigh as he helped me up. I looked around and froze as my eyes landed on the one person I didn't expect to see.

"Been awhile MindStrike." He said with a small smile.

"Peter." I said as my eyes narrowed.

"What happened? Where we are?" Moira asked softly.

"Hey. Hey!" Raven yelled to the glass.

"Hello, Mystique." A voice said.

"Major Stryker." She hissed out.

"Colonel Stryker. I wouldn't get too close to the wall if I were you. It may create some... discomfort." He said with a giant grin.

"I'm Moira MacTaggert. I'm a senior officer at the CIA." Moira said softly.

"I know who you are, agent MacTaggert." He said calmly.

"You cannot keep me here in this..."

"Actually, I can. A psychic event just destroyed every nuke from here to Moscow. That event emanated from exactly where we found you. At the home of the world's most powerful psychic. So, you're going to tell me. Where is Charles Xavier?"

"It's not him you should be worried about. There's someone else. Someone more powerful." Moira said as I let out a groan.

"If you let us out of here, we can help you." Raven explained.

"Do you really expect me to believe that? You can put on any face that you want, but I know who you are. What you are."

"Hey, Moira. Mm. What did you mean when you said someone more powerful than Charles?" Hank asked with a frown.

I let out a sigh as I set on the ground and put my face in my hands.

"It's going to be okay." Hank said as he turned to look at me.

"No it isn't. The first ever mutant had my father, and I'm stuck in here." I said as I let out a sigh.

"How did you know he was-"

"He told me his name. Before I woke up." I explained. "Our minds.. intertwined when I used Cerebro."

"What did you see?" Moira asked as she walked up to me.

"A temple. I thought he had kidnapped me and changed my clothes."

"Your clothes, why would you think he changed them?"

"Because I was wearing a blue dress with-"

"With silver trim and gold jewelry."

"How did you know?" I asked with a frown.

"En Sabah Nur had a follower, a powerful one. She was his pride and joy, he trusted her with all of his secrets. He was going to take her power, but didn't because he grew to love her."

"This doesn't explain you knowing the dress I was in."

"She wore a blue dress with silver trim. The blue was to honor En Sabah Nur and to show that she was his."

"So why was I wearing it?"

"(Y/n), she was a telepath just like you." Moira explained. "And she was extremely powerful, it's said that she was able to control the minds of everyone in the whole world."

"What happened to her?" Hank questioned.

"She was killed. En Sabah Nur swore to get revenge for her death, no matter the cost." Moira explained. "It's said that he spent the remainder of his life looking for a vessel for her, one strong enough to hold her soul."

"Please tell me that he does not want to make her the vessel." Hank said as he pointed to me.

"I don't know."

"My day couldn't get worse." I grumbled as I laid back on the ground and covered my face.

"You know him? Magneto." Peter asked as he walked up to Raven.

"I used to. I'm not so sure anymore." Raven said as she shook her head..

"What was he like? Was he... like they say he was? Was he a... bad guy?"

"No. I mean, yeah. He was... Why do you care so much? Did you see his speech on TV or something?"

"Yeah, but... He's my father."

"What?" Raven asked in shock.

"He and my mom, they..."

"-Yeah, I know. But... Are you sure?"

"Yeah. Yeah. yeah. He left my mom before I was born. I met him 10 years back, but I didn't know it was him. By the time I figured it out, it was too late, you know. Then, this week I saw him on TV again. And, I came to their house looking for him. But, by the time I got there... Late again. You know, for a guy who moves as fast as me, I always seem to be too late."

"Let's hope not this time."

"Yeah. Seriously." Peter said as he looked over at me.

"Hear me, inhabitants of this world. This is a message. A message to every man, woman and mutant. You have lost your way. But I have returned. The day of reckoning, it is here. All your buildings... All your buildings and temples... ... will fall. The dawn of a new era will emerge. For there is nothing you can do..." a voice said.

"-(Y/n)." Dad said through my mind.

"... to stop what is coming."

"(Nickname), if you can hear me, focus on my voice. Cairo. Find us. (Y/n), find us. Cairo. Find us. (Nickname)." He said softly.

"This message is for one reason alone. To tell the strongest among you...Those with the greatest power. Protect those without. That's my message to the world."

"That was Charles doing that without Cerebro." Hank said on shock.

"I know that voice. It's Xavier, isn't it? What's going on?" Stryker asked angrily.

"We don't know!" Raven yelled.

"We don't know, bro!" Peter yelled.

"Hank, dad sent a message to me, he is in Cairo." I whispered as soon as the guy left.

"We need to get out of here."

"I kn-"

"(Y/n), come to me." A voice whispered in my ear.

I let out a groan and fell to the floor, clutching my head.

"Come to me."

"What's wrong?" Hank asked as he rushed up to me.

"Nothing." I grumbled as I shut my eyes. "Headache."

I forced myself to my feet and held back a groan as the voice continued to talk to me. Before Hank could say anything else a blue guy teleported into the room and landed on me.

"Sorry!" He exclaimed as he helped me up.

"Kurt." Hank said as he let out a sigh.

"Hey. Stay away from the..." Kurt said as he gasped for air.

"The what?"

"Th... door... stay away from the..."

"-Get away from the door!" Someone yelled.

"-the door! The door!" Peter yelled.

We moved out of the way and a beam came through the door.

"We know where the Professor is." Jean said as she walked into the room.

"I think we might have a way out of here." Scott explained.

"Well, you've been busy." Raven said as she let out a laugh.

"I know where he is too." I said as I walked up to them.

Jean nodded her head and we rushed out.

"We had a little help. Let's go."

We made it to a plane and climbed on. We put on flight suits and I let out a sigh as I set beside Scott.

"Looks like I saved your life. Did that give me a chance?" He asked with a smirk.

"Not in a million year, kid."

"Come on the guy can't be that great." Scott said as he let out a laugh.

"That guy is sitting in front of you." I said as I stood up and plopped down beside Jean.

"Smooth." Jean said as she shook her head.

"I try." Scott said as he shrugged his shoulders.

I saw a frown appear on Peter's face and I let out a sigh as I looked away from him, hoping to not get into a fight with him.

"So why did you break up with me?" Peter asked drawing my attention to him.

"We are not talking about this right now." I said as I shook my head.

"Well there is a chance we are going to die, so I think we should talk about it."

"I broke up with you because I didn't see it going anywhere." I said as I crossed my arms over my chest.

"I thought we were fine."

"Peter, we had been dating for nine years, been friends for twelve. I thought maybe you would want to go further."

"We had sex, how much further do you want?"

"Marriage! I thought maybe you would finally propose and we could start a family! Your father got married and had a child a year into a relationship and even after nine years you didn't propose, why would I stay in a relationship that I knew wasn't going anywhere?" I asked as our eyes met.

"I-"

"Don't, right now all I want to worry about it my father, and if we somehow make it out of this, then you can go your way and I can go mine, cause you already made it clear that you don't see marriage in our future." I said as I looked away from him.

I didn't want to cry, not now and not in front of some of my students. There was too much on my mind for me to allow Peter to get to me, especially when I someone screaming in my head.

We made it to see debris flying everywhere.

"Seventh wonder, 12 o'clock." Hank said softly.

"He has the Professor in the center of the pyramid. He's going to transfer his consciousness into the Professor. If he does that, he'll have the power to control every mind in the world." Jean explained.

"What the hell is that?" Moira asked softly.

"It's Erik. You guys help Nightcrawler get into the pyramid. Get Charles. I'll take care of Erik." Raven said as I leaned back against the jet.

"How are you going to get through that?" Hank asked with a frown.

"I can get you in there. I came here for him. Let me help you." Peter said as he looked at Raven.

"The rest of you, get Charles on this plane and get him out of here." Raven said softly.

"We're not leaving without you!" Kurt exclaimed.

"Don't worry. We'll catch up." Peter said with a smile.

"You better, I swear to god if you die-"

"I won't." Peter said cutting me off. "We still have to talk about our breakup, which I didn't agree to."

"You don't have to agree on a break-"

"Hold on." Raven said cutting me off.

I let out a groan and held onto my seatbelt. Peter sent me a wink, which made me roll my eyes.

"Hank, you go with the kids. Moira will be waiting on the plane." Raven said as we landed and climbed off the plane.

"Wait." Scott said stopping her.

"What?" Raven asked calmly.

"Not all of us can fully control our powers."

"Then, don't. You need to embrace them. We all do." Raven said as she looked at Hank.

Peter sped off with her and I let out a sigh.

"You still love him, don't you?" Hank asked softly.

"I don't think I'll even not love him." I said as I walked away from Hank.

We soon got dad and I rushed to his side and put his head in my lap. I heard a scream and I went to jump up, but dad grabbed my hand and stopped me.

"That was Peter... I have to help him." I said as I tore my arm away.

"Raven." He said in shock.

"The great hero." Apocalypse said.

I looked out to see him holding her by her throat while Peter was on the ground. 

"I'm going out there." Hank said angrily.

"I'm going with you." Me and Scott said together.

"No. It's me he wants." Dad said as he tried to stand up.

"Charles, you can't give yourself up. If he has you, he has us all. The whole world." Moira said softly.

"It's not dad he wants." I said as I rose to my feet.

I rushed outside and ran towards Raven and Apocalypse. Peter's eyes went wide as he saw me walking towards them.

"En Sabah Nur!" I called out, causing him to drop Raven.

"So you came." He said as I stopped in my tracks.

I saw Peter on the ground, his eyes wide and a look of shock on hai face.

"Let them go!" I ordered.

He let out a laugh and took a step towards me.

"A child tries to order me around, how cute." He said as he walked towards me.

"(Y/n)... run!" Raven yelled.

I saw a piece of broken metal on the ground and dug my nails into the palms of my hands.

"You want me because I look like her, don't you?" I asked as I walked up to the metal, and picked it up.

"That and your power, it is the same as hers." He said as he continued towards me.

"Well I'm not her, and I'll never be her."

"And yet you came out here to save the man you love, like she did for me. Tell me, would you not die as she did for me?"

"Only one way to know." I said as I raised the pipe up.

I placed it above my heart and took in a deep breath of air. He stopped in his tracks, his eyes narrowing as I glared at him.

"Isn't this how she died? Taking a dagger to the chest to stop the human's from killing you, or was it she didn't want to use her power for evil anymore?" I asked as I pushed the pipe into my chest, stabbing myself a little.

"(Y/n)! Don't do this!" Peter exclaimed. "Please! Just run away!"

"I can't. I'm sorry, Peter." I said as I tightened my grip on the blade.

I pushed it deeper, piercing my skin with a gasp. I heard Peter call out to me, but I pushed it to the side. I could feel my father calling out to me, but I didn't stop. It wasn't until the metal pipe was torn from my hands that I was stopped. The pipe went thru Apocalypse chest, throwing him backwards.

"Get away from my girl." A voice said from behind me.

I spun around and let out a gasp as I saw Erik behind me.

"I might of lost one daughter, but I won't lose both of them." Erik said as he walked up to me.

"You think this will stop me?" Apocalypse growled as he pulled it out, and healed.

"Perhaps not, but it will hurt." Erik said as he continued to throw stuff at him.

I ran over to Peter, who pulled me into his arms. He cuffed my face and scanned me for wounds, his eyes fell on my chest and he touched the wound.

"(Y/n)-"

"Not now, let's get you out of here." I said as I helped him to his feet.

I laid him against the wall where Raven was with Hank. I turned to leave to help the others, but he grabbed my arm.

"Don't go." He pleaded.

"I have too."

"(Y/n)-"

I rushed forward and captured his lips with mine, causing him to let out a groan as he tangled his fingers in my hair and pulled me closer. We broke apart, both of us gasping for air.

"(Y/n)-"

"I'm sorry." I whispered as I pulled away from him.

I pulled away and ran from him, rushing towards the fight. I made it to Apocalypse and saw him struggling against my father's powers. I touched my head and used my powers to throw things at Apocalypse, and hold him back. I concentrated on breaking his shield and felt my head start to spin as he fought back against me. He used his powers to throw something at me, knocking me to the ground and knocking me out cold.
