NARRATOR: Previously on X-Men...

Ladies, gentlemen,

the missing mutant scientists and I have built a mutants-only asteroid.

Where any mutant may live apart from humanity, free from its cruelty.

My mission is peaceful.

Any intervention would make it otherwise.

Magneto's got missiles up there.

He says they're defensive. But how can I take that chance?

If I can speak with him, I'm certain we'll find a peaceful solution.

You thinking about moseying skyward?

Don't worry, chere. Gambit's got no bags packed.

- You're coming back, Cajun? - Promise, chere.

I will not tolerate

- your endangering my asteroid. - I renounce you!

You renounce me?

You will serve our cause much better as a martyr.

Traitors! They have destroyed our beloved Magneto.

Vengeance for our lost Lord Magneto!

AMELIA: Assassins!

I believe the proper expression is, "Feet don't fail me now!"

GAMBIT: They ain't even slowing down!

Quickly. If you value your lives, take us to the shuttle!

You go on. Gambit will hold them off.

We may not be able to wait for you.

So then Gambit become the first X-Man in orbit.

Now we're playing a new game, and it's Gambit's deal.

I'll take care of him.

Sorry, mon cher, but you joined the wrong team.

(GAMBIT SCREAMING)

XAVIER: We'll wait as long as possible. But be ready to leave

- the moment I give the signal. - Wait!

I see something. It is our pursuers, but I do not see Gambit.

XAVIER: Go! Now!

CORTEZ: Soon, Xavier, his X-Men,

and the rest of the Earth's tyrants shall taste our vengeance!

Magnus.

MAGNE TO: Charles, I live.

(SIRENS BLARING)

Oh, no! They're getting ready to handle a crash!

COSMONAUT 2: Come on, little one. Only a few more kilometers.

I should have skipped lunch.

(ROGUE GRUNTING)

Man, that's hot!

ROGUE: Y'all hold on!

Gambit! Where is he?

ROGUE: Gambit.

- Gambit! - Rogue, please.

Let go, Hank! I gotta find him!

XAVIER: Gambit is alive, Rogue. On Asteroid M.

I should've known he'd sneak out on us!

It is not what you think!

Gambit had no intention of staying with Magneto.

His sacrifice allowed us to escape.

- Sacrifice? - Do not worry.

We shall get him back as soon as we finish adapting the Blackbird engines

and manage an orbital launch.

- Which one of you is Charles Xavier? - I am Xavier.

And I am prepared to speak to the President.

What about Gambit?

I'm afraid our return to Asteroid M will have to wait a few hours.

It is imperative that we inform the world's governments

of the danger Cortez presents.

Remy.

CORTEZ: Behold, I give you your traitor, X-Man,

follower of the dupe Xavier,

(COLLAR BEEPING)

Destroyer of our beloved Magneto.

Did you really think you could get away with it?

That we would allow him to go unavenged?

- He's a traitor to mutants! - Kill him!

- Destroy the X-Man! - Do away with him!

Silence! He'll be more useful alive.

When I've convinced him to join our just cause.

- Never. - Mark my words, X-Man!

Before this day is done, you will beg me to let you join us!

(CORTEZ LAUGHING MANIACALLY)

He would not have wanted a memorial, so I will keep this brief.

Erik Magnus Lehnsherr was known to you only as Magneto,

our most intractable opponent.

He was also my friend.

XA VIER: Magnus had a tragic past.

Anger and resentment led him down a destructive path.

I tried to help him. I failed.

In the end, he wanted only to spare future generations

the pain he was forced to endure. Though I abhorred his methods,

I cannot fault the strength of his character.

Farewell, Magnus. At last, you have found your peace.

Now, we have work to do.

I know it's wrong, Beast. But it ain't Magneto I'm thinking about.

Why you need me to lie about Magneto?

We both know I didn't do it.

(GAMBIT SCREAMING)

Oh, but you did.

- Confess your treachery! - Cortez, that's enough!

You're a liar! Say it!

Say it yourself, you slimy little crawfish.

- Stop it! - Don't interfere again, Miss Voght,

or a court may have to look into

why you were helping an enemy of the state!

Hear me, leaders of the Earth.

All mutants held for any reason must be freed.

And restitution paid for human crimes against them.

Or we will begin attacking targets on Earth,

commencing with Genosha.

Let me warn you that resistance of any kind

will result in your immediate destruction.

You have four hours.

We can't sit here and do nothing, Professor.

That little tinhorn dictator has enough firepower

to take out half the people on this planet!

We have to destroy him while we still can!

Let me go back. Let my people at least try.

More mutant-loving foolishness!

We listened to him before

and now another madman is preparing to wipe us out!

Mutants can't be trusted. Why should we let this man try again?

Because I'm your only chance short of all-out nuclear war.

And this time, sir, we won't be going up there to talk.

CORTEZ: Now the humans will fear us!

Destiny has delivered unto you a new leader!

Reckless fool. The world would have left us alone.

(COLLAR BEEPING)

- Gambit? - Amelia, what're you doing here?

I thought you might need something. Are you all right?

Gambit have no complaints.

Does Cortez know you're here?

He's too busy trying to get us destroyed.

Why don't you just confess and get it over with?

Because we both know the X-Men are innocent.

But what happened to Magneto?

Ever wonder how Cortez got to Magneto's chambers so fast?

When his room is on the other side of the asteroid?

No, but I can find out.

UNUSCIONE: I tell you, something's wrong with Cortez.

He was never like this in Genosha.

CHROME: You worry too much.

I don't know what's going on around here, but I don't like it.

Now, let's see who's telling the truth.

(BEEPING)

The cloaking worked.

We passed through the shield undetected.

We shall be docking momentarily.

I just hope we're not too late.

Missing!

BEAST: One down, 249 to go.

Cortez, this is Amelia Voght.

You're needed in the control center immediately.

Disrespectful harridan. She'll be next.

I knew it!

I ordered you to call me only in case of an emergency!

There's no emergency.

Sir, I don't know what you're talking about!

Something's wrong, very wrong.

- WOLVERINE: Yeah. - We've been invaded!

Sound the alarm!

(ALARM BLARING)

Got to take out the control center!

My pleasure.

Catch!

The little twerp can dish it out, but he can't...

You called, sir?

Yes! These human-Ioving scum have dared to attack your leader!

(ROGUE GASPING)

(ROGUE SCREAMING)

That is treason.

And I pronounce sentence!

We shall jettison them

into the cold blackness of space.

I live!

Vengeance shall be ours! Saith me!

My people demand justice!

Public retribution broadcast to the world!

You tried to destroy Magneto's vision,

to oppress his followers as millions have done before!

I don't like your face, punk.

I am their deliverer!

The only thing you've delivered lately is a pack of lies.

Return! You are unfit to lead!

MAGNE TO: Powers. Cortez...

Soon you will fade away into nothing!

You will serve our cause much better as a martyr.

It's a trick!

(MUTANTS MURMURING)

I lived for him!

Don't look good, Cortez.

- How could you do it? - He trusted you.

We trusted you!

I think I'm gonna enjoy this.

- You won't take me! - Now hold on!

Our new world shall live!

She'd be a handful on a date.

I don't think wild boy's gonna fire off any more of these missiles.

But he can! The secondary controls!

- Mr. Calley. - Yes, sir?

The asteroid has been infiltrated by hostile agents!

- Check the missiles! - Yes, sir!

Someone's fooling with them, sir. Sixteen percent of missiles disabled.

- Two hundred and ten still operable. - Fire them!

Beg your pardon, sir?

The missiles! Arm the warheads and launch them immediately!

But that would wipe out most of the people on Earth!

Do it, soldier!

Don't listen to him, Byron. He's gone crazy.

He's one of them!

Stop it, sir! You don't know what you're doing!

(CORTEZ GRUNTING)

Traitor!

(GAMBIT GROANING)

This isn't what I signed up for.

Thanks.

You can't stop them! No one can!

(CORTEZ LAUGHS)

BEAST: Not a good sign.

A saboteur, like a thoughtful guest, knows when to leave!

Professor, all of the missiles have been activated!

There are too many!

Hear me!

Magnus, you are alive!

You failed, Cortez!

The Earth's magnetic field has healed me,

as a mother nourishes her son. Now, I will have my vengeance!

Magneto doesn't sound like he's in a very good mood.

- We better find the Cajun fast. - We don't find him, we don't go!

Gambit! Come in, you low life swamp rat!

Chere, it almost sound like you miss me.

ROGUE: Remy, when I get my hands on you...

(ALL SCREAMING)

I have come for the one who betrayed me.

Have mercy!

Look like our cue to go.

I live only for you, my...

- Chere! - Come on!

Just like you to be running around with another woman.

What took you so long, chere?

Gambit had to hold this place on his own.

Just take it easy, hotshot.

And next time you go gallivanting around some big old space rock,

why don't you take someone along to look after you.

(EX CLAIMS IN DISGUST)

You're making me sick.

Make one last pass.

Magnus, you must come with us.

Thank you, Charles. But if my dream must die,

I must see it through to the end, alone.

In time, the world might have learned to trust us.

Now that hope has been lost.

Do not concern yourself. I shall survive it.

Why did you offer to save Magneto?

He is my friend. Nothing can change that.

And what is there for him now, Charles? His dream is gone.

He could help us. As you could, Amelia, to fulfill my dream.

Working for a better future for all, mutant and human alike.

A generous offer, Charles Xavier, given our past together.

But I just tried following another man's dream.

It is time I discovered my own.

- Where am I? - APOCALYPSE: With your true savior.

I don't understand. Who are you? What do you want with me?

APOCALYPSE: You were saved from the asteroid

because your talents will prove useful to me very soon.

But who are you?
