With her were three people - [url=https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/815379011852042261/995911717747966042/unknown.png]Sage, a woman in a bright yellow coat with tinted shades[/url], [url=https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/815379011852042261/995911846978658304/unknown.png]Prodigy, a sharp looking Black man with tinted yellow shades and a yellow coat of a different shade than Sage's[/url], and [url=https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/815379011852042261/995912209932755084/unknown.png]Dr. Banner, a shockingly youthful looking man who seemed to be in his early 30s at most[/url]. "Thank you, Cerebella," Dr. Reyes said. "Not to make you a messenger pigeon, but if you could go find Charles next, I suspect he'll want to be here." "No worries!" Cerebella then ran off the way she came. "Rough night," Sage mused, as she got to work on some of the unconscious Avengers. "What happened here?" Banner asked, helping out as well. He glanced over at Flynn, recognizing him as just Firestorm. He didn't recognize Oliver or Matt though. "Are you two new to the island? I'm Doctor Banner - but you can call me Bob," he said, holding out a hand to either of them. "You're kicking off some mad psychic feedback," Prodigy noted, staring at Flynn with his head tilted. "What [i]did[/i] happen exactly?" [b][color=84B4E2]The Waiting Grove[/color][/b] - "Oh, I am seeing many things, child," Destiny said. She considered her words carefully. Knowledge of the future could be dangerous, tending to create self-fulfilling prophecies. In her experience, there wasn't just one future - there were many, with some common events but often varying and spinning out of focus in a chaotic spiral. "They are nearing their end. What happens will break them apart, triumph or fail, it will not change. Their group will be forever fractured, their bond never the same again." "Uh... I'm not seeing anything nearly as ominous as that," Eye-Boy said, laughing awkwardly. "There's this... this red stuff though that's sticking to them, it almost looks like [i]magic[/i] - and it's extra bad on those two," Eye-Boy said, pointing at the Maria and Amelia from Earth 666. "Do you think they are cursed then, comrade?" Colossus asked Eye-Boy. "I... have no idea. This is kinda above my pay grade," Eye-Boy said, falling silent as Firestorm and Wolverine came back on over. "If it's magic, we can deal with that, non?" Gambit reasoned. "We have to have someone on this island who can handle magic?" [center]* * *[/center] Bonnie nodded slightly at Cass' words - she had to believe that there was a way to fix Flynn and Amelia, to bring them back to them. She couldn't give up hope that they could help their friends, especially as it seemed more likely by the minute that one by one, it would happen to the rest of them as well. Her mind flickered briefly towards thoughts of their home reality - had Fury or Hill sent anyone else after them? Was anyone else looking into that anomaly at the Raft? Would SHIELD go to the Avengers or the Fantastic Four or [i]someone[/i] for help? Bitterly, an answer flashed into Bonnie's mind - no. She didn't believe that Fury or Hill would go for outside help unless absolutely forced to. SHIELD's relationship with superheroing groups was fragile at best these days - the time when Fury could control them was long gone. He had tried it with the Avengers, he had tried it with the X-Men, and it never stuck. The only superheroes he had at his beck and call were the Secret Warriors... They would have to save themselves. "You can make coats appear?" Aero asked, a bit surprised. [color=FFB795]"That's such an oddly specific power - can you make other things appear, like bags?"[/color] Amelia then added. Neither of them knew what Cass' full powerset was, thanks to Amelia losing her memories. And as Aero had asked if someone could make a coat appear, and Cass offered to do so, it was logical for them to assume that Cass had some form of power that involved summoning coats. "Sooo... Are we going to go find this Chuck person, then?" Darcy asked. [color=d86615]"I doubt it'll take him too long to just come and find us,"[/color] Raynor said. [color=d86615]"Chuck is too nosy for his own good. Could never just let people exist on the island, had to make sure they were following his rules. If I had to guess, he's getting wheeled over here by Erik as we speak,"[/color] Raynor finished. He didn't really know how he felt about seeing Magneto and Professor X again in this reality. He had thought he'd never see these versions of them again when he had left - he thought he had left this entire place behind - and now, he was parading these people through a nightmare of his own making. [color=f6989d]"He's a psychic, he must be able to hear us thinking, so..."[/color] Bonnie got a slightly wicked smile on her face. [color=f6989d]"If I am possessed by the goddess Athena, the goddess of wisdom, well... She's a goddess of [i]thought[/i] then,"[/color] Bonnie explained. She shut her eyes and whispered to herself. [color=f6989d][i]Athena, please, if you can, boost this.... CHARLES XAVIER WE NEED YOUR HELP!!!!![/i][/color] "...Did it work?" Darcy asked. Then, [u][b]in all of their minds,[/b][/u] they would hear an echoing voice - the voice of Charles Xavier - [i][b]"Wait. I'm coming."[/b][/i] [hider=The X-Men of Earth-257][list][*][url=https://i.pinimg.com/originals/0b/71/2e/0b712e8aa56b223d40faa5b0679b2a77.jpg]Firestorm[/url] [*][url=https://media.gq.com/photos/59baaf26a64be8552d93ad9a/16:9/w_2560%2Cc_limit/jennifer-lawrence-red-sparrow.jpg]Syphon [/url] [*][url=https://comicvine.gamespot.com/a/uploads/scale_medium/11112/111123579/7559200-eyeboy.jpg]Eye-Boy[/url] [*][url=https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/01_492.png]Wolverine[/url] [*][url=https://2v7smn27y3922e05obea523d-wpengine.netdna-ssl.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/11/champion-unstoppable-colossus.jpg]Colossus[/url] [*][url=https://external-preview.redd.it/n-IMZHynmjXPP6SLSBPHQ5JOsrWgvO8nIfUTxLJugms.jpg?width=640&crop=smart&auto=webp&s=ddb89ba36f5b16d5b1574d05e6bdcdea3f025271]Nightcrawler[/url] [*][url=https://comicvine.gamespot.com/a/uploads/scale_small/1/14487/8364041-dd160250-1ba1-49b4-8bb2-d69ce4b1319f.jpeg]Cerebella[/url] [*][url=https://comicvine.gamespot.com/a/uploads/scale_medium/11114/111141742/7812006-s.w.o.r.d._vol_2_3_textless.jpg]Manifold[/url] [/list][/hider]
