Erik Lensherr walked through the shadows of the city. Despite his fame as a mutant leader, he preferred to remain hidden on certain occasions, especially from those who could use his power against him. However, that night, something caught his attention. So, he chose to enter that dark alley.
There, in the shadows, stood Raven; her yellow eyes met Magneto's, and a sinister smile came across her blue face. It had been a long time since they had last seen each other, but the connection between them was still strong.
Magneto and Mystique sat in a corner of the alley, reminiscing about the old days and catching up. As the night progressed, they began to talk about their current lives. They discovered that they had both found a new purpose in fighting for mutant rights. So perhaps they could become a team again. Erik had heard a rumor that some shapeshifters who were supposedly causing trouble could also be useful to them in making things better for mutants.
As soon as he told her about it, she started telling him what she knew about them. He listened to her attentively while his mind kept thinking of all the endless possibilities there were.
So, they decided to thoroughly investigate the existence of these rebel shapeshifters and their possible connection to the mutant cause. Erik knew that, if they could convince these shapeshifters to join their fight, they could accomplish what the mutants were afraid of.
Following the clues Mystique had obtained, she and Magneto went into the darkest corners of the city. Eventually, they found a small group of shapeshifters gathered in an abandoned warehouse. They were beings of different shapes and sizes, but as soon as they noticed the presence of the mutants, they became defensive.
They distrusted the mutants and were not willing to form an alliance with them or with anyone different from them; they wished to keep their identity as well as their existence secret; they did not want to be persecuted like the mutants.
On the other hand, Erik was beginning to lose patience; he did not like their refusal to participate in his plans. Frustrated by the shifters' refusal, he decided to try to persuade them in another way.
It didn't work either; the shapeshifters were adamant, and they didn't want any interaction or alliance with the mutants or humans. In fact, the atmosphere was starting to get tense, and threats to attack the mutants and declare war on them began to appear.
Erik and Raven decided it was time to leave, but not before Erik swore mentally that if those beings ever needed help, he would make sure they did not get it from any mutant, as well as that at some point he would make their existence public; they had been wrong to refuse, and he would never forget it.
On the other hand, Raven began to talk to him about new plans. Since their alliance had been renewed, they could do many things with their team, and she already had the next targets.
