"What you doing now?" Pepper asked Tony as she exited the elevator to see Tony in his lab that overlooked the glittery New York skyline. She and Tony lived in Stark Tower which was the new headquarters for their business. After the incident in New York, the city was on the road to recovery. People were still going to hospitals to receive treatment, roads were being filled and painted over, and bloodstains were slowly being washed out of the sidewalks. The city and its people were in a process of healing after a few short months of being faced with soulless aliens from another realm. Even so, Tony and Pepper were doing their best to ensure the public viewed Stark Industries in a more positive manner. They were more aware of the environment and doing a lot more philanthropic work in the area.

Tony spun around and gave Pepper a smug look that already told the redhead that he was indeed, up to no good. "I am just doing some experiments." Tony gave a casual shrug, though his face gave away his intentions. The dark haired man spun back around to the Tesseract which Thor was letting him burrow for the weekend. Tony was at the moment, trying to analyze it and see how it could better his own technology. Pepper grabbed her gun in its holster and slipped it around her waist. She had on black jeans and a light blue button up tee shirt, the weather was rather mild and she wanted to go to the gun range with Tony for more practice. Tony stepped back and used a large laser to get a closer reading on the Tesseract but as soon as it connected, there was a large sound of air before he and Pepper were sucked inwards.



There was a sudden sound before Tony Stark and Pepper Potts found them in the middle of a deserted part of Mexico by the border between it and the United States of America. "What the hell did you just do? Where are we?" She exclaimed as dust threatened to fill her lungs as she started to couch, trying to ward herself of the dry clouds of dust. Tony looked around, unable to provide an accurate answer for his close friend. He held up his hands, trying to buy himself a little more time while he figured it out. Clearly they weren't in New York City anymore. He pulled out his cell phone and saw he had no service. "Tony!" Pepper called out to him, trying to get his attention.

"Yes?" He looked up. "What? I'm trying to figure that out." He quickly told her.

"Let's just start looking around." Pepper suggested with a sigh. Tony put his phone away and followed the woman. Tony had on dark green cargo pants and a black tank top. He had a few items stored away in his pockets but unlike Pepper, he didn't have anything to actually arm himself with. He kept glancing down at her gun before he focused on the view ahead.

"Something's up there, some abandoned building or something." Tony spotted. He jogged a little closer with Pepper following slower behind. Tony glanced around and could hear people talking. He crouched down and hide behind a few large, but empty oil drums. Pepper caught up to him and he motioned for her to get down and stay quiet. "This doesn't sound good, whatever is." He muttered as he looked around and saw a battered looking limo caked in dust and a few bullet holes, as well as a crowd of people. Many were armed but only one or two seemed to be basically defenseless.

A young child was at the center as she threw down her backpack, emerging from a small building that may have been some kind of warehouse in its past life. The girl let out a cry before metal-like claws shot out of her top knuckles and she charged at the men with guns. Tony ducked out of instinct and turned back to Pepper.

"Yeah, we gotta go." He quickly.

"Go? What? Where?" Pepper huffed and stood up to see the young dark haired girl doing quite a lot of damage. "We have to help her."

"How? I don't have my suit." Tony pointed out. Pepper looked to him and pulled out her own gun. Tony patted down his cargo pants and found he had a laser cutter, a screwdriver and a small device that had an electrical output when charged by solar. Before he could stop her, Pepper moved around and held out her gun, not sure who to really point it at. "Pepper." Tony protested as he decided the screwdriver would be the best tool given the chaos ensuing around them at the moment.

As Laura was tearing the various men limb from limb, she looked to see Logan trying to get Charles and drive off. Laura let out a growl and turned to see a red haired woman come around and shoot one of the men she was currently disemboweling. "You alright!?" Pepper called out to the young girl. Laura leaped off the man as the man fell to the ground to bleed out. Tony was finally forced to emerge as he clasped the tool in his hand and managed to take out one of the men as they started to close in on them. He looked around and didn't recognize anyone. In fact he spotted someone with a rather interesting mechanical hand. The inventor inside Tony, was rather curious but he also knew there wasn't time to sit around and chat, swapping stories.

"What the hell is going on here and where are we exactly?" Pepper demanded as Tony hurried beside her, wiping his bloody screwdriver on the arm of a corpse to clean it. Pepper knew she probably sounded crazy but she now turned her attention toward the limo that was coming back around toward them. She cocked her gun, not sure whether to shoot or not. Laura growled at Pepper which Pepper indicated, was an order not to shoot, so instead she put the safety back on the gun as a few of those still left breathing by some miracle, began to pile into a large SVU. Now Pepper and Tony felt quite ill-equipped and very much out of place.

Logan had been kicked down and whacked a few times in his life, you know the good old rough around the edges. But never had he seen people ever go after a child. But he watched as a little girl showed the man what she could do, he be damned! He slowly got up and lashed out with his claws sharply cutting a man's back open and sliced a man's arm off as well growling deeply. But he also saw something more confusing two strangers seem to appear in the middle of the frey. He took the time to get to Charles growling “come on Charles” he said as the old man seemed to mumble something.

Are you not taking the child with you? She is a lot like you Logan very much like you indeed Said the old man as Logan growled and got the man into the car and snorted

“Don’t be silly, another Mutant to be a trouble of mine?” he grumbled annoyed as he locked the door to the car and was watched the men get into the SUV and frowned deeply . he turned the Limo around sharply and drove back and circled around laura and Tony and pepper as he opened the window and snapped.

“Get in the car now, You two strangers who look very confused we do not have time to explain. I can tell you two are confused so i suggest as well get in the car” he shouted over to the man with a shining blue chest piece and a lady that had carrot colored hair. He had a few tricks up his sleeve to get away from these scum bags and growling as he hears his phone buzzing and growled annoyed. Picking up once once everyone was crammed into the car picked it up.

“Yes Mystique?” he snapped over the phone, he had good relations with her just right now wouldn’t be the time to call him up. He stepped on the gas full throttle as he sped the car away from the SUV and the people trying to get Laura as well. He needed time to register everything as well in his mind before hearing the phone connection cut off and growled.

“Damnit!” he said and put the phone away and saw that the SUV was chasing after them as he was trying to get them back to the house where he and Xavier stayed with Mystique who often helped Professor through his regular day and stuff as well as like making sure he was okay and didn't get hurt and took his medication. He took a few deep breaths and huffed slightly and shouted back

“Everyone cozy back there?” he didn’t honestly care if they were or not just as long as everyone was alive. Xavier finally spoke in his rather hushed tone strangely enough, his voice was that of a old man yet the wisdom was apart no doubt.

“Yes we are all safe, but it seems our guests are a bit scared Logan” he said referring to the two Avengers that appeared in the timeline that they were never around in. Logan looked back at them and grumbled slightly.

“I can see they are afraid as they should be if they just appeared here. What are your names?” he asked deciding to be a bit nice as he looked at Laura with a stern glare at her to never do that again. He drove them swiftly down the road to get them away from the SUV that was chasing them down and growled as he dodged a few bullets aimed at the place spinning the Limo slightly and grunted slightly “Everyone hold on” he said before he stuck it in reverse and shot backwards past the SUV and spun down into a ditch and drove through the tunnel like area and got to where they were needed to be which was the underground tunnel that lead beneath the road as he zoomed for the entrance at the east side closer to the house.

It would be half an hour drive through the tunnels before they came back up forty miles from where they had been and closer to the house. He grunted as he finally got to the small home that he lived in with the two other mutants that he was close to.

Do not Mind Logan.....he is troubled at times for many reasons the world is a rough place now and most people here hate our kind Said the telpathic male as he smiled at Pepper and Tony kindly.
