Devana had gone outside for some air and as she walked the mansion grounds she couldn't help but think about what she was going to do now that she had gotten what she wanted. Shaw's death. She was so lost in thought that she wasn't paying attention to what was going on around her and she started when she heard "you better be careful out here" she looked up and noticed none other than Erik standing there. "You never know what could be out here." 

Erik smiled as he looked at the raven-haired girl. Devana sighed "Erik, you have some nerve coming here." 

"I know," Erik sighed knowing that he had hurt a lot of the people here. "I just needed to see you." 

"Why did you do it, Erik?" 

"Fear, anger," Erik spoke honestly. "I know how this goes. Humans become afraid of something, they start to hate it, and then they round people up and look for ways to get rid of it." 

Suddenly a horrifying realization hit Devana as she stared at Erik "you know the signs because you lived through it once already. You don't want it to turn into another Holocaust." 

Erik nodded "yes." He then looked at Devana "and I can't do it without someone here working for me." 

"You want me to do it?" Devana asked as she stared Erik down. 

"Yes," Erik spoke softly not liking that he was putting her in danger. Not liking that he couldn't take her with him. 

Devana looked at Erik "Okay. What do you need?" 

"Emma Frost," Erik answered urgently. "Do you know where she is?" 

Devana was confused as to why Erik wanted Emma Frost but nodded "The CIA. But Erik be careful." Erik nodded before disappearing again leaving Devana to grapple with the choice she just made. 

Most of the CIA leaders were in a meeting room together when the entire building lurched. Erik couldn't help but smirk as he made his way through the halls of where they were keeping Emma Frost. When people built buildings, they had no idea that they were building a metal bomb just waiting for someone like him to come along and use it. 

He walked through the basement and broke into the cells, ripping the door off its hinges, and walked in. "I know we haven't always gotten along." 

Emma looked at him "where's your telepath friend?" 

"Gone," Erik spoke sadly. "Left a bit of a gap in my life if I'm to be honest. I was rather hoping you would fill it." 

Emma looked at the others at the door before letting the crystals slip away as she looked back to Erik "Erik, I believe." 

Erik smirked "I prefer Magneto." He did prefer Erik but only for Charles and Devana the people he cared about and trusted. He didn't trust any of these people. 

Meanwhile, Devana who was still at the mansion found a metal coin in her room and smiled as she saw the insignia of the Hellfire Club. She knew Erik had left it for her. She should have been wary or hesitant to spy on Charles and the others for Erik but she wasn't. Erik and she had been on the same mission for a long time and they were of like mind. They agreed with each other's ideals and this time was no different. 

Erik Lehnsherr and Devana Finley or Magneto and Huntress had no idea how right their fears and thinking was but they would soon find out.
