🕑 Added 2024-06-23 17:00:11 +0000 UTCBefore Wanda arrived, Scott, Jean, and Kitty were attempting to prevent Wanda from capturing Jubilee. However, when they suddenly lost consciousness, Kitty found herself in Wanda's clutches.
“Pietro… We will do this next time, X-Men. Let me get some leverage.”
She used her powers to her powers to bind Kitty. Even her phasing powers could not help her.
“Let her go!”
“Watch it, Scott. You don’t want to accidentally hit her.”
“Grr.”
“I need to leave, but my brother and his friends need me.”
As they set off, she departed with Kitty by her side and made her way to the location where her teammates had fallen unconscious. Scott and Jean were also with them, prepared to rescue Kitty.
When Wanda arrived, she discovered her brother and other members of the Brotherhood lying on the floor. Outraged by the sight of her injured brother, she quickly realized that their injuries were not severe, only leaving bruises. It was evident that the person who had taken them down had shown restraint and had not intended to cause serious harm. A man with purple skin, whom she did not recognize, was standing alongside the X-Men, and she surmised that he must have been the one responsible. Wanda announced her presence, causing the man with purple skin to become alarmed. They confronted each other, and the tension in the air was palpable.
“I see you beat my brother and his friends. Let’s make a trade. I’ll release her, and you can let us go. How does that sound?”
“Who are you?”
“I’m the Scarlet Witch. Who are you?”
“Kamen Rider.”
“Kamen Rider? How surprising. I did not expect you to be all the way here.”
“I’m full os surprises.”
“I see, no matter hand over my teammates, or else this little girl gets it.”
Wanda tightened her hold on Kitty, and she grunted in pain.
“Agh~”
Her X-Men friends were worried about her, but they could not move or risk Kitty getting injured.
“Kitty! Let her go!” said Bobby. He was about to go after her but was stopped by Storm.
“Bobby, you mustn’t. You will risk harming her.”
“Let me go!”
Ace thinks about it before ultimately agreeing. He can’t risk her being harmed; her safety is more important than capturing the Brotherhood.
“Fine, you can have them back. Hand her over first.”
“No, you have to hand over them first.”
“Are you kidding me? There are four of them, and that guy weighs who knows how much.”
Wanda frowned, but she reluctantly agreed. She sent Kitty over, and Ace went over to check her condition.
“Kitty, you okay?”
“Ace? Thanks. Sorry, you had to give those guys up. Hey, don’t say that. You are more important to me than them. I will do the same anytime.”
Kitty blushes, seeing how Ace would do anything to save her. “My hero.”
“Okay, knock it off.” Rogue breaks up the atmosphere before it starts getting worse.
“Don’t be so jealous, Rogue.”
“I’m not jealous!”
Wanda reaches out to her teammates. She grabs them using her powers, and they float alongside her. Her gaze falls upon the Kamen Rider, who is in close proximity to the X-Men. She finds him intriguing, having heard about his deeds and unusual power.
“Tell me, Rider. Are you interested in joining the Brotherhood?”
Ace is surprised Wanda is recruiting him. “Unfortunately, I have to decline. Saving mutants is an admirable goal, but hating and injuring normal people is something I cannot agree with. But I might lend a hand if you need help to save mutants.”
“You're very strange, Rider. It is a shame you won’t join us if I need your help. I will consider it. I hope we meet again.”
After a blinding red flash of light, Ace and the X-Men found themselves momentarily disoriented. When they regained their senses, Wanda and the Brotherhood had vanished. With a sigh of relief, they realized that the battle was finally over, bringing a sense of closure and satisfaction.
Kitty linked arms with Ace, which upset Rogue. “It is a good thing you’re here, Ace! Wait, how did you get here? This ain’t New York.”
“I heard you all were heading to California, and I also got information that the Brotherhood is here. So, I thought I would come as well in case anything happened, and it is a good thing I did.”
“Aw~ thanks for coming.”
Kitty abruptly experienced a loss of strength, as if all her energy had drained from her body. She witnessed Rogue forcibly removing her from Ace's vicinity.
“Rogue! Quit that!”
“Then get away from him!”
The two of them were playfully wrestling, and Ace found it entertaining to watch. It was good to see them well enough to have some fun together. Jubilee came up to him to thank him.
“Um, thanks for saving my bacon, by the way.” she said shyly.
“No problem, just doing what is right. I could not let them do as they please.”
“Do you know these X-Men guys?”
“Yeah, we're friends, actually.”
“I can see that, especially with those two fighting over you.”
Kitty and Rogue were playfully wrestling, pulling each other's faces and hair. It was clear they were just goofing off and trying to bug each other without causing any harm, adding a light-hearted element to the scene.
“I wonder what makes you so special to make them like that?” she said with a teasing tone. Ace only shrugs while watching Kitty and Rogue fight. Storm, on the side, is looking at them in embarrassment.
Shortly after, Scott and Jean showed up and were both pleasantly surprised to see Ace there.
“Rider? You’re here.”
“Hey, Scott! Thought your group needed some, so I came.”
“Is everything over?” asked Jean.
“Yeah, the Brotherhood got away tho. Could not help it.”
“It is fine, as long Jubilee is safe and everyone is unharmed. So, Jubilee, you are going to join the school, right? We need to talk to your parents and convince them.”
“They ain’t going to like.”
“Then help us persuade them. I’m sure they will understand once you talk to them.”
Jubilee did not want to talk to her parents, but after thinking about it. She agreed to do it. “...Fine.”
Ace and the X-Men visited Jubilee's home to discuss her wish to attend Xavier's School for Gifted Youngsters. Unfortunately, her parents were hesitant and expressed concerns about the potential dangers.
“Honey, you can’t go. Please, just stay. It doesn’t matter if you are a mutant. It is better for you to be here.”
“Listen to your mother, Jubilee. You don’t have to leave.”
“I want to go with them. You say it is better for me to be here, but I heard you were planning to send me to a correction facility this morning!”
“Honey… we … we did not want to send you away.”
“Besides, other people are going to come after me. It is better to go with them where it is safe for mutants.”
Jubilee's parents finally gave in to her strong desire, allowing her to join the X-Men. As she packed her bags, her parents embraced her, tears streaming down their cheeks before she headed off on her journey.
Jubilee had only been with her adoptive parents for a year, but they treated her like their own daughter. So, the goodbye was bittersweet. Jean put her hand on Jubilee’s shoulder to comfort her.
“It is okay, Jubilee. You can visit them when you have controlled your powers and during school breaks.”
“So, Rider. You coming with us? The professor said he would not mind letting you stay.”
“It is fine, Scott. I can find my way back. I still have other things to do.”
Rogue holds Ace’s hands. “Are you sure? You can stay with us for a few days.”
“I can’t, Rogue, but I promise I’ll visit when I have time.”
“Okay… visit soon, alright.”
“I promise.”
The X-Men hopped on the Blackbird with Jubilee, and Ace waved enthusiastically as they flew off into the distance.
“Ark, are the recordings in the area destroyed?”
“Yes, all the footage about your battle with the X-Men has been erased. Even from private devices. It should only amount to a rumor that mutants are fighting.”
“Good. Have you tracked where the Brotherhood had gone?”
“Unfortunately not. The Scarlet Witch's powers seem to be mysterious, and I don’t have enough data.”
“That’s a shame, but they will reel their head someday. We just have to capture them then. Now, time to go home.”
…
An incredible orbital space station hovers above Earth, serving as the stronghold of the powerful Brotherhood led by Magneto. After their recent loss, Wanda had to bring back her allies to the base. Meanwhile, Pietro seethes with anger at their recent losses to both the X-Men and the formidable vigilante, Kamen Rider.
“Damnit! If that guy did not get in the way. We would have gotten the girl!”
Blob was still not feeling too good. His insides felt like slushies. “Yeah, I feel like I’m going to empty my stomach any moment. Barf”
Toad got away as soon as possible. “Yuck! Get away from me, big guy!”
“Quiet, Pietro. What’s done is done. There is nothing else we could do.”
“Easy for you to say, Wanda. Father is going to chew us out.”
The door swung open, revealing a commanding figure - a man with grey hair clad in a striking red suit and a regal purple cape. Every member of the Brotherhood instinctively looked up to him, for he was none other than Magneto, the father of Wanda and Pietro and the leader of the Brotherhood.
“How did you do? Did you succeed in bringing the girl?”
Wanda stepped forward to answer. “I’m sorry, Father, we failed.”
“Did you lose to Charle’s pupils? I made sure with your members you would succeed, and you could not even do that.” He said with a disappointing tone.
“There was someone who helped the X-Men, Father, and he was the one who defeated Pietro and the rest.”
“Hey!” Pietro felt her pointing at them was unneeded.
“Quiet! Continue, Wanda.”
“The recent vigilante known as the Kamen Rider stopped us.”
“Kamen Rider? What was he doing with the X-Men.”
“I don’t know, but they seem to have a close relationship with him.”
“Is this true, Pietro?”
“Y-Yes, Father, embarrassingly. He defeated us easily. We were about to grab the girl, but he suddenly showed up and ruined everything.”
“Hmm… Is he a mutant?”
“I don’t know. He mainly uses a suit of armor to fight, but his strength was abnormal and couldn’t be explained with just a suit of armor.”
“Very well, it is a shame we could not have gotten another sister to join the cause, and this Kamen Rider will need investigation. Rest up for now.”
Magneto leaves, letting Wand, Pietro, and the other mutants relax. They are tired and need some rest. Wanda goes to her room and sees a familiar girl with green hair.
“Lorna, were you waiting for me?”
“Yeah, Wanda. Did you succeed?”
“Unfortunately, no.”
“That’s too bad.”
“But I did meet someone interesting.”
“Really? Who?”
“I met the Kamen Rider.”
“Kamen Rider! I’m a big fan of his!? How was he!?”
“He was a kind person.”
“Really?”
“Come, let’s go inside to talk about it.”
Wanda and her half-sister Lorna had a great time chatting in the room until late at night.
