Hope's POV
Hank flies the airplane we got from the government building. Sitting down beside my aunt I can see the memories playing through her mind. Memories of when my parents were here apart of the X-Men. She takes my hand in hers smiling weakly. "I was on a plane like this with my friends. About your age...We called ourselves the X-Men. Your brother was there. We used to call him Havoc. He was a real handful...but when it came down to it, he was very brave." She glanced to Scott then back to me smiling. "You're parents were there too. You're mother was probably the strongest girl I've ever seen until you. So was your father." The plane starts rattling where I gripped the seatbelts knowing it had to be my uncle Erik. He's the only mind I can't feel the closer we get. "He has the Professor and Aurora in the center of the pyramid. He's going to transfer his consciousness into her and then into Charles. If he does that he'll have the power to control every mind in the world and..." I finished Jean's thought in a shacky breath. "He'll gain both their powers. To become an all powerful hybrid."

Once the plane lands I stopped in my tracks feeling my mother's voice inside my mind. "Hope, you have to stop Erik." Closing my eyes I sucked in a breath running down the ramp. Peter and Raven got ready to go up until I grabbed his arm. He zoomed us up where I nearly puked getting sick from how fast he moves. Resting my hands on my knees I see all the metal of the world surrounding my uncle like a protective wall. Concentrating I try and enter his mind but the helmet blocks me where he took notice. "You can't defeat me, Hope." Rolling my eyes I flashed him my golden eyes replying with a sarcastic response. "My mother would say otherwise. Considering she kicked your ass twice I believe. Except this time it'll only take me one shot." Erik just blankly stared down to me until Raven called up to him. "I know you think you've lost everything. But you haven't. You have me. Charles. Hope...and Aurora. You have more family than you know." She paused taking mine and Peter's hand. "We're gonna go fight for what we have left."

Aurora's POV
The God dude dropped my body and Charles onto a rock table. There's another on the other side of mine. I try throwing my energy against the egale boy but he shoved my body down with the tip of his wing making me wince. "You won't get away with this. Our friends will come for us. You won't win!" I grunted trying to sit up again feeling restraints snap onto my wrists and ankles. Charles scoffed as the egale boy walked away from him. "You're just another false God. And whoever's left to follow you when this is all over...they will betray you again!" The God pushed my husband down creating restraints on him as well. "You're wrong, the both of you. For the first time in a thousand lifetimes...I have you. For all my gifts, I have yet to possess the one I needed most. To be...everywhere. To be...everyone." The God layed down on the table where I turned my head towards my husband clutching my hands at my sides grunting. "Hope's coming, Charles...she's with Raven...they created a new team...the new X-Men!" He gulped through a nod seeing the tables starting to glow underneath our bodies.

Releasing the golden power out in my hands I try to snap the restraints while twisting my body around needing to get free before his plan works. Charles does the same grunting through a scream. "Get out. Get out!" Meaning that thd God was already entering his mind. Grunting against the table I felt someone draining my energy when the golden power got less bright. "Charles, Charles...I love you...I'll always love you!" I blurted out crying in this second that I might die. Charles blue eyes locked onto mine while the God power removed his hair making him bald. "Fight Aurora. Fight him - urgh. I  - I love you too!" He sniffed until somebody grabbed our bodies pulling us out of the pyramid. The next time I opened my eyes I covered my ears with my hands screaming loudly. "Stay out of my head. Stay out  - Hope!" Charles stopped screaming too seeing me shoot up feeling my energy going away into someone else. But not into the God man...pushing myself up I look out the window seeing Hope's eyes glowing golden much brighter than before. Her hands glowing bright with the God man standing away from her ready to face off against him.
