do something with his life.

He was always the one.

That's not how he felt.

He felt you were the one who's going to

do something special with your life.

That you're going to make

a difference in the world.

Maybe even change it.

How did you know what he felt?

I know what everybody feels.

Hold me in the light of God.

Protect me from danger.

Save me by your command.

Listen to my prayer.

And keep me safe.

You're blocking me.

How?

I can shield their minds

from your power.

It's one of the many gifts I have

acquired through out the millennia.

But to... see...

inside a mind.

To control it.

That's your gift.

You saw it, didn't you?

The glory of what's to come.

Are you going to take part

in all this killing?

Destruction?

- It's all I ever known.

- No, it isn't.

- You've just forgotten.

- No, Charles, I remember.

Your way doesn't work.

I showed him a better way.

A better world.

No, you just tapped into his rage and pain.

That's all you've done.

I told you from the moment I met you,

there's more to you, Erik.

There is good in you too.

Whatever it is you think

you saw in me, Charles.

I buried it.

With my family.

- What?

- What?

What's wrong with you?

Is that going to

happen to all of us?

No, I just left my meds

in the house.

- What happened? Where we are?

- Hey.

Hey!

- Hello, Mystique.

- Major Stryker.

Colonel Stryker.

I wouldn't get too close

to the wall if I were you.

It may create some... discomfort.

I'm Moira MacTaggert.

I'm a senior officer at the CIA.

I know who you are,

agent MacTaggert.

- You cannot keep me here in this...

- Actually, I can.

A psychic event just destroyed

every nuke from here to Moscow.

That event emanated from

exactly where we found you.

At the home of the world's

most powerful psychic.

So, you're going to tell me.

Where is Charles Xavier?

It's not him

you should be worried about.

There's someone else.

Someone more powerful.

If you let us out of here,

we can help you.

Do you really expect me

to believe that?

You can put on any face

that you want,

but I know who you are.

What you are.

Hey, Moira.

Mm.

What did you mean when you said

someone more powerful than Charles?

Once he finished this,

we'll go from there.

What's taking so long?

I can't get in.

It has a field around it

like the helicopter.

There's got to be a way

to cut the power.

Charles, you will send a message

to every living mind.

You will tell them that this Earth

will be laid waste.

That it is I, En Sabah Nur,

who wreak this upon them.

Now.

Deliver my message.

Even if I wanted to,

I couldn't reach that many people.

I don't have Cerebro.

You don't need a machine...

to amplify your powers.

You have me.

Guys, that could be

our way out of here.

You know him?

Magneto.

I used to.

I'm not so sure anymore.

What was he like?

Was he... like they say he was?

Was he a...

... bad guy?

No.

I mean, yeah.

He was...

Why do you care so much? Did you

see his speech on TV or something?

Yeah, but...

He's my father.

What?

- He and my mom, they...

- Yeah, I know.

But...

Are you sure?

Yeah. Yeah. yeah.

He left my mom before I was born.

I met him 10 years back,

but I didn't know it was him.

By the time I figured it out,

it was too late, you know.

Then, this week I saw him

on TV again.

And, I came to their house

looking for him.

But, by the time I got there...

Late again.

You know, for a guy

who moves as fast as me,

I always seem to be too late.

Let's hope not this time.

Yeah.

Seriously.

Hear me,

inhabitants of this world.

- What is this?

- This is a message.

I think it's the Professor.

A message to every man,

woman and mutant.

You have lost your way.

You have lost your way.

But I have returned.

But I have returned.

The day of reckoning,

it is here.

All your buildings...

All your buildings and temples...

... will fall.

The dawn of a new era will emerge.

For there is nothing you can do...

- Jean.

- ... to stop what is coming.

Jean, if you can hear me,

focus on my voice.

Cairo.

Find us.

Jean, find us.

Cairo. Find us.

Jean.

This message is for one reason alone.

To tell the strongest among you...

Those with the greatest power.

This earth will be yours.

Those with the greatest power.

Protect those without.

That's my message to the world.

That was Charles doing that

without Cerebro.

Sir, what was that voice?

I know that voice.

It's Xavier, isn't it?

What's going on?

- We don't know!

- We don't know, bro!

He just spoke to me.

- I think he spoke to everyone.

- I can hear him too.

No, no. He just sent

me a hidden message.

One he knew only I would hear.

I know where they are.

Hey!

Shots fired!

Where's it coming from?

I have intruders in quad 6.

Send a security team

and take them out.

The generator.

It's worth a shot.

Kurt?

There's some kind of animal in there.

It's no animal.

It's a man.

Who is he?

A part of himself

has been taken away.

What do you mean?

I mean, they turned him into...

... some kind of weapon.

Charlie 3, report.

Did you find them?

Turn it down.

Fire!

Weapon X is loose.

I repeat.

Weapon X is loose.

You sure he's not an animal?

- He's in the central halls.

- Engaging target, Sector 5.

We can't stop h... !

Hey!

- What are they doing?

- What's going on?

I just lost the feed.

- What's going on here?

- Hey!

I'll be right back.

Move!

Hey!

Stay where you are!

Scott, wait.

I can help you.

Jean.

Logan.

Logan.

What did you do to him?

I found a piece of his past

and gave it back to him.

Just a few memories I could reach.

I hope that's the last

we'd seen of that guy.

Kurt.

- What?

- What?

Hey.

Stay away from the...

The what?

Th... door...

Stay away from the...

- Get away from the door!

- The door! The door!

On three.

One.

Two.

We know where the Professor is.

I think we might have

a way out of here.

Well, you've been busy.

We had a... a little help.

Let's go.

- Watch out!

- Jesus!

Oh, sorry.

This way.

This was meant to be

the center of the universe

before I was betrayed.

Now.

It will be.

Nice.

Hey, Hank. Do you think

you can fly this thing?

Yeah, I can figure it out.

Hey, guys.

Flight suits.

You got your warplane.

Let's go to war.

A gift...

From the past you left behind.

And the future that lies ahead.

You, will reach down, my son,

deep into the Earth.

Rip everything they built

from the ground.

Wipe clean this world.

And we will lead those that survived.

Tinge to a better one.

And me?

Am I to play a role

in this madness?

You have the most

important role of all.

Were you scared?

That day in DC,

were you scared?

No.

But I was scared

on my first mission.

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 Havoc.

He was a real handful, but...

When it came down to it,

he was very brave.

What happened to the rest

of the kids that went with you?
