Assembling

"Cool. Emma and Scott it is." John said. And the next moment the golden helmet which was invisible before now was near him. John took the helmet and put it in. His suit changed according to Dr. Fate again.

"A magical helmet? That is weird choice of attire." Wolverine.

"One of my powers comes from the helmet, so I need to wear it for specific purposes." John said as he searched Scott and Emma through his cosmic awareness.

"Let's vanish." and the moment John said that both Wolverine and John vanished from the room. All were dumbfounded by this.

"Was that teleportation?" Luke asked Cloak as he felt it was teleportation.

"It was. But it is on the magical side. He probably wasn't lying when he said he is the Sorcerer Supreme of his Earth." Cloak replied. All were surprised by those words.

They both showed up at an apartment. The apartment was big and most of the things on the room were of white color. And surprisingly all the items around were perfectly white.

"What the... Logan?" Scott said who just came to the room. And then he saw a man wearing a golden helmet. He remembered that Logan was on the run. He had escaped from his quarters and many agents were hunting him down.

But that wasn't the amazing part, there was another guy with a golden helmet. According to Mystique, this guy was very powerful enough to make a easy work of 4 top agents of SHIELD. Scott didn't even speak a single word.

He directly took of his glass to shoot at John. He wasn't sure why Logan was here but this guy was dangerous according to SHIELD and Lord Magnus himself ordered to take this person down.

John who saw this didn't move at all. His laser shot just hit a transparent shield which came out of nowhere. Scott was surprised by this sudden ancient looking shield that appeared. As Scott was contemplating all of this, the door opened and Emma walked in.

"Hey Emma.." Wolverine said.

(Emma and Scott are in a relationship in the comics. As opposed to how she was portrayed in the movie First Class, she is on the X-men side most of the times. Though Scott and Jean were in a relationship at one point of time, but with Emma & Scott had a longer one.)

"Logan.." she exclaimed and Scott was going to say something stopped in his tracks. He couldn't move, not even his eyelids.

"What is going on?" Emma asked. She used her telepathic powers to freeze everybody but was surprised to see that John was perfectly fine and she couldn't even read his mind. Hell, she couldn't even move the helmet that John wore. (major plot hole, I know.)

As Emma was ready to attack John using her telekinetic powers she got a brief glance at the mind of Logan. Since Logan was on the run, she wanted to know why. But what he saw made her break down.

"No.. No... No.. This can't be happening...."

She started crying, and her mental instability brought Cyclops back. He saw Emma on the floor in tears. He got scared, thinking Wolverine and John did something and was ready to attack again.

"Scott, you should listen to Emma before you take a shot again. I can pardon your ignorance once, not twice." John said and the next moment a very sharp spear appeared near his neck, drawing a thin line of blood. This spear like shield before came out of a orange looking gate.

"Who are you?" Scott asked as he was not fazed by John's threat.

"Who am I? You should ask Emma of your true identity." John replied.

"Scott you should listen to him. The situation is more complicated than you think." Logan said. Emma who was in tears showed the images that she saw in Wolverine's head to Scott.

Scott's mind was instantly barraged with knowledge of what had happened before and that this world was wrong. And like Emma he too had tears in his eyes now. He couldn't believe what he saw.

"Why? Why is it like this? Why?" Scott asked.

"Because one person couldn't handle the loss of children." John replied. As a person John had sympathy for Wanda but not what she had done with everything. A person can't just give pain to other people just because that person itself is in pain.

This was one of the greatest lesson Naruto had taught him. A cycle of hatred needed to be stopped or else there would never be peace.

"Is what I saw true?" Scott asked Wolverine.

"100 f**king percent. So now whose side are you on? Theirs or ours?" Wolverine asked as this was the main question.

"I hate it. I hate the previous world. But this is wrong. This can never be the reality. At the end reality matters. And we need Charles Xavier back for this."
