The X-Men.

Hank and I are

the only ones left.

I couldn't save the rest of them.

I told you, I'm not a hero.

Well, you're a hero to us.

Seeing you that day on TV

changed my life.

My too.

My too.

I mean, I still live in

my mom's basement, but...

Everything else is...

Well, it's pretty much the same.

I'm a total loser.

What we're seeing is a

magnetic phenomenon

on a much larger scale

than we saw in Auschwitz.

The ground is full of magnetic elements.

Iron, nickel, cobalt.

The ocean's floor is

lying with them too.

It's already begun,

at the lowest depths.

Land masses will slow it,

but not for long.

Eventually, cities, urban centers.

Anything built since the

Bronze Age will be wiped away.

The death toll will be billions.

He's talking about the

whole god damn world.

You're just another false god.

And whoever's left to follow you

when this is all over.

They will betray you again.

You're wrong, Charles.

For the first time in a thousand lifetimes...

I have you.

For all my gifts, I've yet to

possess the one I needed most.

To be... everywhere.

To be... everyone.

Seventh wonder, 12 o'clock.

He has the Professor in the

center of the pyramid.

He's going to transfer his

consciousness into the Professor.

If he does that, he'll have the power

to control every mind in the world.

What the hell is that?

It's Erik.

You guys help Nightcrawler

get into the pyramid.

Get Charles.

I'll take care of Erik.

How are you going to

get through that?

I can get you in there.

I came here for him.

Let me help you.

The rest of you, get Charles on

this plane and get him out of here.

- We're not leaving without you!

- Don't worry.

We'll catch up.

Hold on.

Hank, you go with the kids.

- Moira will be waiting on the plane.

- Wait.

What?

Not all of us can fully

control our powers.

Then, don't.

You need to embrace them.

We all do.

Go, join the others.

Protect me until the

transference is complete.

There's an entrance.

It's clear.

Kurt.

Get in there!

In the pyramid.

Move!

Go!

Split them up.

Professor.

Kurt, you have to hurry!

I'm trying.

It's like a maze in here.

Kurt, no!

The magnetic field is too strong,

I can't get us in there.

Erik!

Mystique.

I know you think

you've lost everything.

But, you haven't.

You have me.

You have Charles.

You have more family than you know.

You never had the chance

to save your family before.

But you do now.

That's what I've come here

to tell you.

And you?

I'm your...

I'm here for my family too.

Get out!

Get out!

GET OUT !!!

Arrivederci.

We're losing him.

I'll be right back.

Scott, glasses on!

Let's go!

- Lock on.

- Here we go.

Psylocke!

What the hell was that?

Kurt.

Everyone grab hold of Nightcrawler!

I've never done it

with this many people.

Get us out of here.

Kurt, hurry!

Kurt!

Charles.

Is he okay?

It's his energy.

He's drained.

No.

Get out.

Get...

Get out!

Professor. Professor, it's okay.

You're with us.

It's okay.

I'm going to go fight

for what I have left.

Are you?

There's so much more than you

than you know.

Not just pain and anger.

There's good too.

I felt it.

It's not just me

you're walking away from.

Here you have the chance to be part

of something much bigger than yourself.

And it needs you, Erik.

Useless.

Charles.

I know you can hear me.

We're still connected.

Charles!

Show yourself!

CHARLES!

SHOW YOURSELF!

Foolish child.

Peter.

End him.

(Greater fighter. She's my hero.

I want to be like her... )

Raven.

The great hero.

- I'm going out there.

- I'm going with you.

No.

- It's me he wants.

- Charles, you can't give yourself up.

If he has you, he has us all.

The whole world.

You are feeble.

Just like the others.

Charles!

Come!

Rescue your weakling!

Give your life,

for their's!

No.

He was right.

There is still some part

of me connected to him.

Charles!

I can get inside his head.

Will you do nothing?

Thank you for letting me in.

You want what I have?

You want to feel what I feel?

Welcome to my world!

You're in my house now!

You'll need a bigger house.

You betray me.

No.

I betrayed them.

Let's jump.

What?

Cover me.

I got you.

Come on!

You lack strength, Charles.

Jean.

Come here.

Help...

Me.

Stay here.

You can't stop him.

Jean.

Help me!

Hank!

Hank!

It's over, Charles.

You're finished.

You're mine now.

You will never win.

And why is that?

Because you are alone.

And I am not!

Let ...

go.

Unleash your power, Jean.

No fear.

Unleash your power!

Let go, Jean!

Jean, let go!

He's getting away.

All is revealed.

Charles! Charles!

- We've lost him!

- Charles.

- He's gone.

- No, Charles.

Charles...

No, he's not.

I can still feel him.

Thank you, Jean.

Charles?

Charles, do you know where you are?

I'm on a beach.

In Cuba.

With you.

What beach?

Charles Xavier.

I'm sorry.

I should never have

taken those from you.

Hold on!

What did I miss?

It seems only by the grace of God,

that the ominous destruction...

seen from one end of the globe

to the other, has stopped.

At a debriefing today,

CIA Special Agent Moira MacTaggert...

revealed to an investigative

committee...

The committee was further stunned

to learn that fugitive Erik Lehnsherr...

aided in defeating

this powerful and unknown...

I think our prayers were answered.

Thank you, Mr. President.

The potential destructive power

of mutants...

... is sure to fuel new controversy

and debate...

at a time when mutants were becoming

accepted around the world.

Mystique told me he is your father.

Are you gonna tell him?

I might...

one day.

I think for now, I'm just gonna

stick around here for a while.

Me, too.

The world's already begun

rebuilding it's arsenals.

It's human nature, Charles.

I still have hope.

Oh, yes.

"Hope."

I was right about Raven.

I was even right about you.

What about the rest of the world?

Doesn't it ever wake you up

in the middle of the night?

The feeling that one day

they'll come for you...

and your children.

It does, indeed

What do you do when

you wake up to that?

I feel a great swell of pity

for the poor soul...

that comes to my school

looking for trouble.

You're sure I can't convince you

to stay?

You're psychic, Charles.

You can convince me to do anything.

Goodbye, old friend.

Good luck, Professor.

Forget everything you think you know.

Whatever lessons you learned

in school...

whatever your parents taught you.

None of that matters!

You're not kids anymore.

You're not students.

You're X-men.
