Chapter 14 - ビラ (Villa)
Mystique walks up to the door of a large silver mansion that sits in the woods hidden in the trees. She is about to knock when the silver door opens and she walks in to find an older man sitting on a metal throne. He wears a metal purple helmet on his head and his purple cape drapes around the side of the chair were he sits his elbow. He gives Mystique a scowling look as she approaches him with a grin.
“You’ve been here. The entire time.” She says.
“Where else would I have gone? The world on the outside goes insane and here there is sanity. What seems the right choice to you Raven?” He asks.
“I figured you would have joined Charles. I know he’s made an attempt to get you on his side.”
Magneto sighs and stands to his feet walking past Mystique and to the stairwell.
“Follow me. We will talk upstairs.” He says. The two begin to walk as helicopters are heard passing overhead.
“A damn warzone everywhere. If there isn’t a riot there is a damn super battle happening between you and the damn Avengers X.” Magneto says.
“It’s the only way to carry out the plan of The Brotherhood. I’m sure you’ve heard what we are after no?”
“Yes I’ve heard. You want to take over Xavier’s school. But he isn’t having that now is he?”
“No but with your help…”
“I told you years ago that I have retired from this. What makes you think that I should reenter the fight when there is absolutely no possibility of me fighting against them?”
“You can fight. Doom will make it so. There may already be four horseman but I will make there be a fifth. I will fight to the ends of the Earth to make it so.” Mystique says grabbing onto Magneto’s hand.
“My parents they… well you know what happened to them. Killed by Nazi’s and thrown into a pit… and me along with them. But I survived Raven. I crawled from the abyss of death and sat on my knees staring down at the pit of the dead. Staring at my parents who lay amongst them rotting. I know you’re probably wondering…. What could a kid be thinking at that moment? Well I will show you what I was thinking Raven. By joining you, by gaining control over our Mutant brothers and sisters we will then show the world that very same agony. May The Brotherhood rise again…” Max says making Mystique grin and open the door to the rooftop as a helicopter lands and the remaining horsemen arrive along with Kingpin.
“Still no sign of Black Cat. Either she’s captured or was KO’d.” Raid says.
“And Cable?” She asks.
“No sign of him either dammit. Starting to look like my plans to grow my empire are growing slimmer and slimmer by the minute. Hell Bulls eye has already called the quits who’s to say they haven’t as well.” Kingpin asks.
“Indeed. Though our movement shall continue to move without the need of those three. We will become stronger due to our faith. Now something will be arriving soon, so our best course of action would be to hit them at the same time.” Max says. Mystique nods and begins to speak her voice filled with determination.
“And the climax approaches….”
Las Vegas – Nevada

“This is the best day of my life!” Deadpool says as a stripper walks into the room.
“You have got to be kidding me. Las Vegas Tony. Out of all the places to make an Avengers penthouse you pick here.” Steve says.
“It seemed like a good buy at the moment the owner was a very, very nice guy. I mean c’mon we have an entire 100 story building to ourselves…. I mean yea there is a strip club across the street but that’s just a… actually that’s kind of a plus right?” Tony asks grinning as Steve shakes his head and walks away.
“I’m sorry but your services aren’t needed here.” Rogue says.
“I had to get past like 10 security guards so I’m not leaving here without getting my paper *****.” The stripper says tossing her hair up.
“The hell did you just call me!?” Rogue yells as she begins to approach the stripper but Ino holds her back.
“I’m sorry. I will leave.” The stripper says turning and walking out of the sliding doors.
“What the…NOOOOOOO My sweet Veronica!!! Her breasts where nice and plump and her butt a sweet deluxe version of them.” Deadpool says falling to his knees and taking out his phone.
“I don’t know what floor you’re on… or if you’ve made it out the building yet… but I will find you… and I will screw you…” Deadpool says dashing from the room.
“You’re welcome” Charles says hovering into the room.
“I would like to have a word with you.” He says looking up at Naruto who nods and follows him out onto the elevator. Charles presses the R button and it lights up blue, the elevator begins to move as Naruto holds on to the rail tightly.
“You’ve been here for God knows how long and you still aren’t used to these things?” Charles asks.
“No! We could have took the stairs you can float!” Naruto yells shaking.
“Good grief kid even if the glass did break and we fell out of this thing you can fly.” Charles says.
“I know but what if it doesn’t kick in… and then like… I hit the ground!” Naruto asks.
“Tough luck then.” Charles says as the door opens to reveal a lavish rooftop. The exit and pass by a Jacuzzi full of red water. Naruto peeks into it to find an Iron Man symbol on the bottom. He smiles as he then finds a group of women along with Iceman at the steak bar watching as the cook flips their meal in the air.
“Whoa let’s sit over there!” Naruto says.
“We have a serious matter to discuss. I’m sure there will be plenty of time to celebrate afterwards.” Charles says as they walk pass the bar into a garden and walk to the edge of the roof.
“Do you sense anything when you look this way?” Charles asks.
“Yea… it’s sort of like a feeling that someone is in a state of… anger… frustration…” Naruto says.
“Yes… It is most likely Kingpin. We could capture them all and ask where Doom may be located but not even they know. They’ve been keeping in touch with him through sorcery and have been receiving their own boost of energy through the same means.”
“I could bust through them right now an end this entire conversation.”
“And produce a series of events that could alter the time. Creating an even worse scenario than what Cable was given.” Charles says. Naruto grits his teeth and turns his head as Ms. Marvel suddenly floats in front of them.
“Hey all of the ninja are going out to eat someplace to celebrate. They were wondering if you wanted to join Naruto.”
“He’ll be down in a moment.” Charles says and Ms. Marvel nods shooting downwards.
“Hey she was asking me not you!” Naruto says.
“It will be nice for you all to get your minds off of this war. I know how it can be. The stress and such things. Now that I know you sense what I do… I want to ask you one more question.” Charles says.
“Oh yea? What is it?”
“Do you believe Cable is telling us the truth?” Charles asks.
“I mean I would suppose so. He is a part of the X-Men right?” Naruto asks.
“Yes that is true.”
“Can’t you just read his mind?”
“Well… Naruto I don’t use that power unless someone is asking for me to do so. Otherwise I only read emotions and tension when in the air.”
“Kind of a waste. If you were to do it then we would know exactly what he does.”
“Ah yes, but it ruins the gift of knowledge peeking into peoples affairs. Now that I have your answer you may go. Try to savor your freedom. For tomorrow is never promised.”
Sushisamba – Nevada
“Alright who decided it was a good idea to let Choji come along. And he gets to choose the restaurant geez let’s just let him have our wallets while we’re at it.” Rogue says.
“I can already tell who the buzz kill is going to be.” Ino whispers to herself. Rogue glares at her balling her fist and slams it against the table.
“The hell did you just say!?” Rogue yells.
“C’mon guys the waiter is coming! Can’t we just enjoy the food!?” Choji asks.
“Hey how are you all this evening!?” The waiter asks, flipping her blonde hair and smiling at Sai.
“We’re doing pretty amazing. You know with the Earth being in the terrorizing state it’s in with millions dying in Canada.” Sai says making the waiter stare at him in silence then nodding and bringing back her smile.
“So what can I get you all to drink?” She asks.
“Sake. Everyone. We’re going to get freakin’ plastered.” Deadpool says slapping the waiter’s ass and sitting next to Choji.
“Dammit I thought you had a bunch of stripper’s asses to smack elsewhere pool!” Logan says.
“I wanted to come join you guuuys. No fun smacking asses with no one around to watch. Yea. I’m kinky.” Deadpool says winking at the waiter who cringes and scowls writing on her notepad and walking away.
“Most of the ninja here aren’t even old enough to be drinking pool. Logan go tell that waiter we will all have sweet tea.” Temari says.
“I don’t like tea.” Deadpool says.
“Well then have coke.”
“I don’t like coke.”
“You’re gonna have a foot up your ass if you continue!” Temari yells.
“Hey what did I do!? You act like I’m the one who had you locked up in that green ship.” Deadpool says.
“Tch. Whatever.” Temari says.
“Easy with your choice of words pool of the dead… They could get you killed.” Gaara says scowling.
“Whoa my bad red haired bro. I know it was hard I was there too remember. I was shocked with long black hard poles just like you man.” Deadpool says.
“Were they even feeding you in there?” Sakura asks.
“Yea every now and then… but it’d just be those tv dinners. Hate those things everything tastes so damn artificial.” Temari says.
“Glad I got you all out before they had decided to starve you all to death.” Hashirama says.
“That would be damn near impossible being how strong you all have gotten. By the way you all have been here for years. You add that up with what the age you were before and you are all technically about 21 right now. Just because you aren’t on your own planet doesn’t mean you stop celebrating your birthday.” Beast says.
“So what are you saying? That we need to pick a day to celebrate our birthday?” Shikamaru asks.
“Exactly! And how about today? Good of a day as any I’d say.” Beast says as the waiter brings them their glasses Beast raises his in the air and makes a wide grin.
“To the ninja.” Beast says as everyone raises their glasses smiling. Sakura tears up but whips them away as she takes a sip of her sake.
“Ah, so let’s know a bit about how you all lived back on your Earth.” Cyclops says leaning back in his chair.
“Well what do you want to know? What kind of food we ate?” Tsunade says sarcastically.
“No. Let’s see… what did you all do to teach younger ninja to become stronger how about that?” Cyclops says.
“Well, we first teach them to care for the village. They learn the simple Justus such as cloning themselves. Transformations making themselves look like others. Fighting tech and things of that nature. If they past the final exams we then give them their forehead protector and from then on they are now Genin.”
“So you make the students fight on the daily basis then?” X-23 asks.
“Yes, if we don’t hone their skills to the absolute highest they will definitely fail on the field.” Hiruzen says.
“Booooring. Gonna go find the waiter so we can order and get our munch on!” Deadpool says running towards the kitchen at top speed.
“Sorry guys…” Hinata whispers lowering her head.
“Sorry for what Hinata?” Naruto asks.
“Deadpool was coming out the elevator with that stripper lady and he saw me and I said we were going to eat and he… he said he was going to meet us there after another round…. I’m sorry!” Hinata yells curling up in her chair.
“Oh for crying out loud. So it was your fault!” Logan says face palming.
“Don’t yell at her Logan it was a mistake! She didn’t know how reckless DP can be!” Emma says as the waiter approaches them along with Deadpool who is following behind her staring downwards.
“Apologize for the wait. You all ready to order?” She asks.
“Yea we’ll take the entire menu!” Choji yells.
“What the hell! Choji sit your ass down we aren’t spending all of Tony’s money like that!” Ino yells.
“You know the guys a billionaire right?” Beast asks.
“Oh… well in that case I won’t stand in the way carry on.” Ino says.
“The entire menu sir!? That’s going to take about 3 to 4 hours to prepare! Are you sure about that!?” The waiter asks her eyes widening.
“Hell I guess so since it’s his birthday and all.” Logan says lighting his cigar.
“Fatso.” Deadpool whispers over the waiters shoulder making the waiter scowl.
“What did you just call me!!!???” Choji yells putting his foot on the table.
“OOPS seems I’ve hit a soft spot tee hee.” Deadpool says sitting down and propping his foot on the table as he sips from his glass.
“This jackass is gonna pay for that! Let’s see if you recover from being smashed into a pancake!” Choji yells.
“Daaaamn that would be kind of torturous don’t you think. A bit top of the line over some 6th grade name calling. Can’t we just act like adults here?” Deadpool asks crossing his legs.
“Ha! You’re on to talk!” Sakura says.
“Everyone let’s just calm down. The people here aren’t really liking all the noise we’re creating.” Iceman says sipping his sake.
“Indeed. We need to act civilized. Now if you don’t mind ninja I would like to ask you all a very personal question.” Beast says.
“What sort of question?” Tsunade asks.
“It’s about Sasuke….” Beast says.
“Then no you may not ask it.” Sakura says.
“Wait Sakura… let’s hear his question first.” Tsunade says making Sakura scowl.
“Well I have been pondering a bit on what kind of person he could have been and I just want to know what you all thought of him. At this very moment.” Beast says.
“I have to say… you have some guts for even asking that in front of me…” Sakura says.
“I know this is a sensitive subject. But I need to know your thoughts. He may attempt to bring you to his side of course.” Beast says.
“If you haven’t been able to tell. We’re all pretty pissed at him ya know!” Naruto says.
“As you should be, but what do you think of him this very moment?” Beast asks.
“I think he’s a horrible person. He needs to be put down. He’s no longer a ninja. He’s a mad dog off it’s leash built of morals and honor.” Shikamaru says.
“Agreed. I will be at peace once we stop him… I’ve been worried about whose lives could be on the line next because of his presence. It’s too much to bear.” Ino says.
“He’s no longer a ninja Beast. You know that right?” Tobirama asks.
“I do.”
“Then you know he is nothing to me. At this very moment. He is nothing.” Tobirama says. Beast nods and turns his head to Naruto who has his head down with his eyes closed as if in a deep meditation.
“And you Naruto? I am most curious of your answer.” Beast says.
“Heh. I understand what he’s doing to some extent. He wants to do the right thing so bad he blocks out any other person trying to convince him of another solution. A solution that involves anything other than just himself isn’t an option. Rationality is over now. Only war remains.” Naruto says as the table grows silent as his words set in.
“Sasuke can’t die though. And the reasons for it lye far beyond us all.” Peter says.
“I know that I just….”
“FOOD ***** EAT!” Deadpool yells as he returns with the waiter carrying piles of plates that he slides on the table like Frisbees.
“Can you quit you’re going to get my dress dirty!!” Sakura yells.
“Oh sorry…” Deadpool says sitting down.
“*****.”
“What was that?”
“Fish! Woman where is the fish!?” Deadpool asks.
“To your left idiot.” Choji says grabbing the plate and swallowing the entire 4 pieces of haddock.
“*******! IMMORTAL PEOPLE GOTTA EAT TOO!” Deadpool yells pulling out his katanas.
“There will be no fighting in this fine establishment!” Hiruzen yells.
“Yes Prime Hiruzen.” Deadpool says sitting down in his chair. Suddenly Shikamaru smashes his palm against his plate of food shattering it to pieces.
“Your answer is bullshit Naruto.” He says beginning to whip his palm with his cloth.
“I’m not expecting everyone to agree to them. But if you want to get in the way then so be it I will have to fight you as well. I don’t want to have to do this Shikamaru, but this battle means more to us than anyone we have ever faced together.” Naruto says.
“Say what you want.” Shikamaru says grabbing another plate and continuing to eat.
“Well! If everyone is done ranting about that emo guy can we talk about something I’ve been wondering lately?” Rogue asks.
“Of course Rogue! We love to hear your words of wisdom!” Lee says blushing.
“Ugh. Any who I have been wondering who would win if it was Avengers vs X-Men again?” Rogue asks.
“How is this topic any better than the last?” Cyclops asks face palming.
“Hey look I’m not trying to start any sort of debate here but I think we can take them on and defeat them. Yea they have the ninja but what happens when we can take on their cosmic energy ay?” Rogue asks.
“But the fact is you can’t. See you have lost already.” Ino says.
“I wanna be on the X-Men!” Lee says.
“Wait what!?” Emma says.
“Haha! Okay so now we have a cosmic user!” Rogue says.
“But that’s only one against the rest whom have more power than Lee does.” Colossus says.
“Wha!!? HEY!!” Lee says.
“Sorry but it’s true…” Tobirama says as the debate lingers on. The group eats and laughs as Peter sits at the edge of the table smiling, admiring what they have fought for. The bonds that have been created between these two universes. He then feels his phone vibrate and pulls it out of his pocket to find that he’s received a message.
“Hey everyone, let’s finish up here and get back to the Tower. Charles needs to have a word with us.”
“Avengers… X-Men… the pain we’ve fought through to this point has been a hurricane on our backs. But we must continue on. There is an even greater threat that awaits us, and it will be the most torturous being we have faced yet.” Charles says as he looks out the tower window.
“Do you know who the enemy is exactly?” Tsunade asks.
“It’s Magneto.” Charles says turning to face Tsunade whose eyes widen in shock.
“You mean… The man who is able to control the metal matter.” She says.
“Yea, his real name is Max. He is fighting for Doom isn’t he? That’s the only way he could be up for a battle during a time like this.” Shikamaru says.
“I believe he has. But as you know the ninja’s cosmic abilities far accede that of Magneto’s. So the real problem does not lie with him…” Charles says as he hovers to Hinata.
“It is within you.” Charles says.
“Wait a second just what are you getting at here?” Naruto asks.
“Haha. Seems you ninja have done a lot of S.H.I.E.L.D. studying but not nearly enough to not know what is happening to this woman.” Charles says as he picks up Hinata’s hair smiling.
“I know what you’re getting at… I read all about it…” Shikamaru says scowling.
“Just… just what is happening to her?” Kakashi asks.
“She has summoned a great fire. A fire that will scorch this entire Earth with its flames.” Charles says Shikamaru walks past him and stops turning his head to the side and looking over at The Avengers X who all seem startled.
“We should prepare for The Phoenix.”
