Xmen: First Class (Reader Insert)

Mutant and Proud!

"Today, our fighting stops!" Erik said as he hovers down to the ground, using the Earth's magnetic field to his advantage. "Take off your blinders brothers and sisters, the real enemy is out there." He pointed to the barrage of ships towards the sea. "I feel their guns moving in the water, their metal targeting us." He gestured pointing to himself, all was listening and was rather worried that what he is saying is true. "Americans, Soviets, humans. United in their fear of the unknown. The Neanderthal is running scared, my fellow mutants!" Charles walked up next to him, but far enough for a space to be between them.

"Go ahead, Charles. Tell me I'm wrong." That's what they all feared, that he was right. That humans, no matter what they do, will still be afraid of them and will eradicate them no matter what.

Charles held two fingers to his temples and his sharp breath practically summed it all up, he looked at Moira and nodding in fear. She quickly ran towards the plane to contact the attack off.

[Y/N]'s abilities kicks in soon enough, hearing the American captain saying:

"Fire!"

Soon enough hundreds of missiles and nukes are flying towards the beach, ready to wipe them all out. No matter if they are on Shaw's side or the Human's side. They will be dead becuase they are mutants.

Alex and [Y/N] held hands tightly, none of them wanting to take action as the missiles closed their distance to them. Until... Erik held his hand up and stopping all the missiles mid air. All of them exhaled but it was cut off as he suddenly turns the direction of the weapons towards the ones who sent them. [Y/N] watched wide eye as Erik readies to deploy them.

"Erik, you said yourself, we're the better men. This is the time to prove it." Charles hastily drags every word out, to stop Erik. To snap him out of it. But Erik is clouded by revenge and anger.
"There are thousands of men
on those ships. Good, honest, innocent men!" He shouts.
"They're just following orders." This caught Erik's attention and he slowly turns his head towards Charles.

"I've been at the mercy
of men just following orders." He coldly states.

"Never again." He held his arm again sending the explosives off and towards the ships.

"Erik, release them!" Charles charged towards Erik, pushing him towards the sand. Some nukes already blew off as Erik lose control over them.
"No!" They both rolled off one anothee, until Charles is facing Erik's back.
"I don't want to hurt you. Don't make me!" He said as he hits Charles' face with his elbow.

Mystique, Sonicdoom, Havok, Beast and Banshee ready to charge at the two. He was now on top of Charles pinning him.

"Stand back!" Erik pushed off Sean, Hank and Alex with the metal in their gear sending them on a long distance to keep them from interferring. [Y/N] followed towards Alex who is now laying on the ground. "Alex!"

"Charles, that's enough!"

"Erik, stop!"

Erik got a hold of the missiles again as he knocks Charles to weaken him. Moira came out of the plane a gun pointing at Erik.

She shoots at him but Erik deflects the bullet, again and again and again. Until, one was deflected towards Charles, hitting him in the back. Raven covered his cry with her hand, and [Y/N] yelling. "No!" Too scared to charge towards him with Erik still guarding him.

Charles cried out in agony as he fell to the sand. Erik let go of the missiles and ran towards Charles cradling him, pulling the bullet off of his spine.

"You. You did this." He lowly growled at the woman. He get ahold of her dog tags and chocked her with it. He lifted Moira, ready to kill her.

"She didn't do this Erik." Charles choked. "You did." Erik gazed upon Charles, now laying on his arms. Them being lost in each other's eyes.

"Us turning on each other, it's what they want. I tried to warn you, Charles. I want you by my side. We're brothers, you and I.
All of us together, protecting each other. We want the same thing." Erik quietly reasons with him. And it is true, he wants Charles by his side. Together, they were unstoppable and strong. But their views clash, their opinions strongly are too varied. Like the two sides of a chess board, always together but never meant to work with each other.

"My friend." Charles exhaled.
"I'm sorry, but we do not." Erik sighed, he can't persuade Charles and Charles can't persuade him. They are too polar opposites to be agreeing to one's wishes. Erik signalled Moira to hold him.

As she quickly scrambled towards Charles, apologizing for what she had done. Erik stepped off and marched towards the sand facing the two sides, now conjoining as one, the mutant side.

"This society won't accept us. We form our own. The humans have played their hand. Now we get ready to play ours. Who's with me?" He asks the others. Angel, Azazel and Janos agreeing, knowing that they can't side with Charles and their vision of the humans aligned with what Erik is believing.

"No more hiding." He turned to Raven, then [Y/N] "No more limits." The two walked slowly towards him but turned towards their injured brother.

"Charles, you doof! What were you thinking?" [Y/N] whimpered to Charles slightly crying. Raven stared at him.

"You both should go with him.
It's what you want." He managed to breath out. "No, Charles. I want you, I will stay... with you." [Y/N] quietly argues, but deep down he did want to join Erik. He did want to prove that humans will not accept them, his patience does not suit the intangability of the understanding of mankind. But, his love for Charles levelled this, far greater. Making his desicion clear as day. But Raven..

"You promised me, you would never read our minds." Raven sadly choked, as if scolding his brother.

"I know. I both promised you a great many things, I'm afraid. I'm sorry." He huffed.
"Take care of him." Charles said to Raven as she stood up. [Y/N] turned to look at her. "Take care of him." Raven repeats the word now towards [Y/N] to take care of Charles, and he nods.

They watch as Raven makes his way towards Erik and the new Brotherhood of mutants. Holding hands ready to teleport away.

"And, Beast, never forget." Raven loudly says.

"Mutant and proud!"

And they disappeared in a puff of red smoke. All three of them, Alex, Sean and Hank charging towards Charles' aid.

"Help me out, come on." Hank rushed towards Moira to assist Charles. "I'm gonna get you to a hospital. Wait, Charles." Hank comforts, Charles trying to push himself off the sand but failing.
"Charles, don't move, okay?" Hank scolded. "I won't." He responded but a sudden realization hit him.

"Actually... I can't feel my legs." He said with a shock in his voice.

"What?" [Y/N] asked cofused.

"I can't feel my legs." He repeated, with much more dire and sadness. All of them worried about his well being.
