Original subtitles

I can't believe you told them! After I begged you not to!

I didn't!

No! No! No! It was my secret and now everybody told-

It wasn't me! Just stay out of it!

Listen to me, young lady! I'm sorry you're upset, but we're trying to save the world here and your powers can help us do that!

I don't care! I just don't care!

I don't want to save the world! I want to be normal again!

Go away and let me be normal!

Well, you handled that perfectly, Stark.

Don't worry, I'm here.

I was just trying to make her understand-

No, you don't understand. You've never been hated like some kind of monster. She's not some kind of tool you can use.

Mariko's got feelings, just like everybody else!

I'm sorry you're upset, but we're trying to save the world here and your powers can help us do that!

Go away and let me be normal! I'm sorry you're upset, but we're trying to save the world here and your powers can help us do that!

I don't care! I just don't care!

I just don't care! I'm here to save the world!

I don't care! I'm here to save the world!

I don't care! I'm here to save the world!

Go away and let me be normal again!

I'm sorry you're upset, but we're trying to save the world here and your powers can help us do that!

I'm sorry you're upset, but we're trying to save the world here and your powers can help us do that!

I'm sorry you're upset, but we're trying to save the world here and your powers can help us do that!

I'm sorry you're upset, but we're trying to save the world here and your powers can help us do that!

I'm sorry you're upset, but we're trying to save the world here and your powers can help us do that!

I'm sorry you're upset, but we're trying to save the world here and your powers can help us do that!

I'm sorry you're upset, but we're trying to save the world here and your powers can help us do that!

I'm sorry you're upset, but we're trying to save the world here and your powers can help us do that!

You're not alone. Mutants know exactly what you're going through.

Stay back!

You could be with them all the time.

Stop right there!

At Professor X's school, you'll have friends you can relate to, kids and teachers who understand you better than any normal human ever could.

Look, I get it. You want to fit in like a regular person, but how are you going to do that if you can't trust anyone?

Go chew on that for a little while.

Is there anyone I know who I can trust? Anyone?

Hikaru? Is that you?

Riko, there you are!

Stolen heroes!

I'm sorry about what happened. You didn't want anyone else to know about it, and then it just... well, maybe you're right.

Maybe I can't totally understand what you're going through, but just because you're a little different from other people, that doesn't mean there's something wrong with you.

And it doesn't change who you really are.

When they asked you to use your powers, they didn't know how you felt. I'll tell them to wait until you're ready.

But they'll be okay with that?

Don't worry, it can wait. Your feelings are the most important thing right now.

I don't know what to say. I feel so...

I'm sorry, just one sec.

Yes, hello?

Hikaru, we got a problem. Chris says he's leaving the team right now.

Come on, Chris! You can't really be serious! If this is a joke, you're taking it way too far!

Alright, I'll come back and try to talk some sense into him.

Sorry, there's a problem with one of the members of our team.

It's okay. Go Hikaru.

You sure?

Yeah, go. I'll be fine.

Thanks, Noriko.

*sigh*

At Professor X's school, you'll have friends you can relate to.

Kids and teachers who understand you better than any normal human ever could.

Disc mode!

Thor, Ed said Chris is planning on leaving the team.

So I've heard. Let's fly!

Accept it. Materializing. Energy identity.

Fighty Thor!

De-smash!

For the glory of Asgard!

Guys, calm down! Just chill out! Let's all chill out!

When are you gonna get a grip, Chris?

If you quit the team, no one will be able to de-smash Captain America. You realize that, don't you?

Do I really look like I care?

Listen, Chris.

Don't need this anymore.

Let me ask you one last question.

I tried to be a good mentor and guide. Why are you so angry with me?

Looking back, I don't know how I led you astray.

It's all about leading me. You just don't get it at all, do you? No matter what I've said.

Chris, please, you've got to-

See ya, Ed.

Wait, Chris! Come back here! Chris!

You guys are all so clueless. Akira, wait up! I'm coming with you!

Chris!

Man, seriously? You think you can force me to stay?

No, I've been worried about you. I overhear things. I know you and Cap haven't been getting along lately.

What happened between you two?

Why'd you stop me? I should be out there too!

It's better if we don't gang up on him. We might convince him if we work on him, little by little.

I've thought about it, and I can't see how Captain America's to blame. As the commander of the Avengers, he has all our respect.

He's a brilliant leader.

Somewhat if he's a brilliant leader. That's not how I roll. I don't need a leader.

I wanted someone who'd show me some respect for once. Someone who was willing to work with me. A partner.

What about you, Chris?

Are you crazy? Let go!

You're all wrong! Be honest. When did you ever try to work with Cap like a real partner?

This is all about you feeling left out. Cap admitted he's never forgotten about his long-lost partner, Bucky, and you're afraid-

Does this make you happy?

So, you're done?

Yeah.

Stop talking like you know how I feel.

Chris.

Come back and talk about it with Cap, man to man. Isn't that what it means to be a partner?

I can't believe Chris. He just up and leaves over one lousy fight with Cap.

If you think that's all there was to that, you don't get it. There's a lot more going on between them than just a silly little argument.

What's she talking about?

Well, we don't have a leader without Cap. What are we going to do?

Not only that, we need his skills and his shield. Without him, our fighting ability is ended.

Then how do we fix this, Iron Man?

Well, come to think of it. If that girl Noriko could break us free of these discs, we'd be in a much better situation.

Mr. Stark, no!

I know, I know. I have to respect her feelings. Please don't get all preachy on me, kid, okay?

You promised me you wouldn't bug her about that.

Right! I'm not allowed to try to force her.

You know it would help us out tremendously.

I told you, I get it, and I'm sorry about what happened before.

How many times do I have to apologize? Would you please sit down?

You notice something? Your brother is acting more and more like a certain someone lately.

And that would be...

Isn't it obvious? He's as stubborn as Pepper.

Do you really think so?

She's right behind me, isn't she?

Is the stubborn one here?

Pepper! Oh, we were just discussing this mark on my armor.

It's a very stubborn stain and Gara and I can't seem to scrub it out.

Never mind that. We have a visitor.

We do?

Noriko, hi.

You're leaving Japan?

Yeah, it wasn't an easy decision, but I made up my mind to go back with Wolverine.

But I came back here first to say goodbye.

Ah, man. What a bummer. We were just getting to know you.

Are you sure you're okay with this?

What about you, Hikaru?

Me?

She's leaving for America. How do you feel?

You know you might never see her again, right?

Oh, yeah, I guess not. But that's fine if it's what you want.

Ah, boys.

That's sweet. Thanks, Hikaru.

Um, well, before you go, Noriko, do you think you could take a look at the disk system one more time and maybe, I don't know, just check it out.

Mrs. Stark, you promised.

Tony?

All right, all right. Can't blame the guy for trying. I'm not forcing her. I mean, I'll respect whatever she chooses to do.

Okay, I'll do it.

Huh?

Right on. You're my hero.

I'll try my best to help. Are you sure?

I'll put the disks here, okay?

Yep, that'll work. Leave them on the table.

Come on, Noriko. Everyone knows you can do it. Just relax.

Cut it out, Akira. Don't you realize you make her nervous when you talk like that?

Please excuse him. He thinks squawking like that is a way to cheer you on.

Could you leave me alone for a little while I do this?

Sure. We'll go next door. Give you some privacy so you can concentrate.

It's just that I'm feeling embarrassed. I don't want anyone to see me do this.

Of course you don't. Come on, everyone.

Shoo! Shoo!

Uh-huh. But I really wanted to watch.

Stop whining.

If anything happens, just call out for us, okay?

Okay.

Hikaru, please forgive me.

Noriko wanted me to stop her? What are you talking about? I don't get it.

My gosh, Hikaru, are you really that naive?

You know, I just don't get it at all.

So she wanted him to ask her to stay?

How can two people be so clueless? It makes sense that you're related.

Well, maybe she's not totally head over heels, but I can tell she likes you a lot.

Anyway, she must see something in you. I mean, she trusts you and depends on you more than anyone else, that's for sure.

Oh. Hmm.

Huh? What is that?

Ugh, it smells funny. Some kind of experiment?

Noriko, is she okay?

Noriko, where are you?

Noriko? Akira, do you see her there?

I don't see her anywhere.

Oh, no.

What now? What is it?

I put all the discs right here on this table and now they're gone.

I bet a villain showed up and then he kidnapped her.

A villain in this place? No way. Isn't the security system in here supposed to be airtight?

I don't know.

Hey, why are you looking at me?

Noriko's gone and so are all the hero discs. What's going on here?

Oh, no.

It's not just the Avengers discs we're missing. All the villain discs we had collected and secured are gone too. They've been stolen.

They're all gone?

The encryption and locks on the discs' storage rooms were crippled by a system error.

The same goes for the security system that protects the whole house.

What in the world?

Do you think Noriko did this?

Well, did you bring what we agreed upon?

Yes. They're all here.

Your power's just as impressive as I'd heard it was.

Thanks a lot. Now make it go away like we agreed.

It's quite a talent. It doesn't bother you to lose such a marvelous quality.

It's a curse. I hate it. Get it out of me right now.

My life is ruined because of the stupid power. I want it gone so bad. Now get rid of it.

I wish I could, but I can't.

What did you say? You and I made a deal.

Because you're a fool. You really thought I could turn you into a normal girl? A mutant freak like you?

You lied.

Noriko! Noriko! Have you seen Noriko?

No, sorry. Haven't seen her around.

Thank you. I asked all over. It doesn't sound like she was at school.

I looked everywhere. I don't see her here either.

response, we can't just run around looking for her. Have you had any luck accessing the footage on the surveillance cameras?

Just a second. Hold on. I've almost got it.

The only seat available is on the last flight out.

We haven't checked her apartment.

Sorry, bub. She's not here.

Wolverine?

I had a bad feeling so it came right over. Looks like someone used a heavy hand to get themselves in here.

I heard from Professor X. He told me she's alive and he knows her location.

She's being kept in an old dojo on the outskirts of the city. Loki's goons are holding her captive.

No, is she okay?

They haven't heard her yet, but we gotta remember it's Loki's crew. When they think they have the upper hand, who knows what they'll do?

No, wait a sec. Hold tight, eager beaver.

Where's your disc?

She stole all of them.

What were you gonna do without any discs to save you?

Besides, can't you see? That's their plan.

To lure us all in.

I might not be able to do much without Thor on my side.

But still, it's all my fault if I just realized how she felt back then.

I've got to accept responsibility. I've got to help her.

The confidence have used.

Do you really think Wolverine will come here?

He'll come all right. With Professor X's abilities, they can find this place in a heartbeat.

Lucky for us because it makes it so easy for them to take the bait.

Looks like he smells the scent of someone.

A mutant, perhaps.

Okay, kid. You're energy factor, right?

What's this? A mutant disc?

Cyclops. The guy's a bit straight-laced for my style, but he's gotta wear accounts.

So this is Cyclops?

Raise yourself, kid. I got a feeling this fight's gonna be a doozy.

There they are. I've spotted hostiles at 12 o'clock.

Do it, kid!

You got it! Cyclops de-smack!

Let's go!

Cyclops, how you doing? Did you have a good nap in that disc?

Nap was fine. How about a status report, Wolverine?

Long story short, we're in Japan right now.

We got a couple of bozos in desperate need of a beatdown.

Okay, copy that.

Area assault!

And now for some optic blast!

Night's eye damaged at all you've got!

No, wait! Wolverine!

Keep blood. With that block, your right arm's just fine.

You fend for that, and you call yourself a warrior.

You're just a fool, and fools must suffer. They're consecrated!

Wolverine, no!

That's poison. Get it off you Wolverine!

Just look at this scene. What is taking the Avengers so long to appear?

The X-Men's Wolverine and Cyclops are on their last legs.

But their supposed allies, the Avengers, are nowhere to be found.

Why aren't they there? This ain't right.

Wolverine!

Listen, everyone. I just got the call from Hikaru at the site.

Noriko's been taken prisoner by Loki's goons.

They must have used her to get the discs.

Typical thugs. I'll make them pay.

What's happening?

This purple stuff's making my body numb. I can't move my arm.

Wolverine's famous healing ability appears to be very slow.

His body must be affected by the poison from Predator X.

That's not good.

Meanwhile, Cyclops is on his heels against the expert maneuvers and lethal attacks of Baron Zemo.

Oh, wait. It can't be.

Baron Zemo's the man who led Bucky to his death.
