apocalypse will not rule this land!
Not as long as I'm alive.
Charles Xavier: We must avoid any act of aggression.
You mean like that?
Aaahhhh!
[ALL GASP]
no.
No.
[SNORING]
huh?
What?!
look, I want you to just forget about this, ok?
Magneto was a bully who went after a bigger bully.
End of story. End of father.
Don't talk like that.
Wanda, face it! He did it to himself.
At least he was trying to save all of us from apocalypse.
Not like the X-men!
They didn't lift a finger to help him.
Whatever. But the old man
went looking for a fight, so he got...
I said, stop talking like that!
[SIGHS] you know,
he wasn't the Loving father you remember.
In fact, you hated him.
Stop it!

Hey, there he is.
[ALL SHOUTING]
[ALL CHEERING]
whoa.
[REPORTERS ALL ASKING QUESTIONS AT ONCE]
REPORTER: Have you always been heroes?
Heroes to the core.
Just ask this guy. I saved his life.
Y-Yes.
So, what do you boys call yourselves?
You can call us
the Brotherhood.
Hello. I'm Edward Kelly,
and as candidate for mayor,
I want to ask you one question.
Do you feel safe?
Every day, mutants move freely
through our city, our streets,
and, yes, our schools,
and they are powerful...
This should bring in the winning votes.
...registration on every single on of them.
These creatures must be monitored,
because, trust me, mutants are a menace.
That's good. Very good.
Tv announcer: This was the scene just moments ago
where some heroic mutants came to the rescue
after a subway train derailment.
In the words of eyewitnesses,
the mutants' bravery was the greatest act of heroism
this city has ever seen.
That's not so good.
We may want to consider a change in your anti-Mutant platform.
No. The only thing we have to change
is the public's thinking.
Oh, give me a break!
Can you believe this baloney?
There's no way those Clowns
would save anybody but themselves.
Yes. It is hard to imagine, isn't it?
But whether intentional or not, Scott,
this change in the public's attitude
toward mutants is very encouraging.
Yeah, until the Brotherhood mess it up.
Let's just hope they can appreciate
the benefits of being the good guys
and stay out of trouble.
Wait! Wait!
It's just a couple of reporters.
You talk to them.
But they want to talk to the girl who was with us.
Forget it!
Wanda,
don't blame yourself for that derailment.
It was my fault, pietro!
How do you know that? You don't.
No one knows anything,
except that we helped save a bunch of people.
You're part of that, Wanda.
So step out there
and enjoy the ride for once.
[REPORTERS TALKING AT ONCE]
REPORTER: There's the girl.
Can we get your statement?
What was your part in the rescue?
Uhh!
She's a little camera shy.
At any time, did you feel yourselves in danger?
Describe what happened.
Todd: Well, as soon as the train crashed,
I immediately took charge
and told all the passengers
that I'd get them out,
even if I had to carry them on my back.
[REPORTERS ALL TALKING AT ONCE]
[TALKING STOPS]
young man,
I owe you my life.
To show you my gratitude,
I'd like to present the Brotherhood
with a reward.
And since my family
owns the largest construction company
in bayville,
I've also arranged for some improvements to be made
to your wonderful old home.
Man, look at all them zeroes!
You know something, boys?
That subway crash just turned into a gravy train.
With some more opportunities,
we could really cash in.
But accidents like that don't happen every day.
They do if they have a little help.
Come on! You came this far. Let's do it!
It's a waste of time.
It's a gold mine.
And the best part?
The X-Men have got to be totally hating this.
Ok. You're on.
[INDISTINCT CHATTER]
[SHOUTING AND SCREAMING]
get out of here!
What happened?
[MURMURING]
aah!
[CHEERING]
aah!
No! Aah!
[GRUNTS]
according to this poll,
the Brotherhood boys have a higher approval rating
than the police chief.
Ohh. What kind of sick and twisted world
are we living in?
Xavier: One that appears to be well orchestrated.
I'm detecting a trend.
The Brotherhood show up
exactly Where their powers are needed most.
Scott: I knew it.
If the loserhood are cooking this up,
something's bound to go wrong.
And that is what we must prevent.
I found them.
Kelly. On radio: Mutants are our greatest threat
to a peaceful future.
But what about the Brotherhood?
Don't they prove that not all mutants are bad?
For all we know,
mutants might be the cause of these accidents.
That's just one of the many reasons
I believe we need a mutant registration act.
Interviewer: But your opponent mayor Richardson disagrees,
saying such a policy is merely a form of segregation.
Really? Well, they should be singled out.
Remember, I was their principal,
and I've experienced their destructiveness first-Hand.
Do not fool yourselves
into thinking they're heroes.
Bad day at the office? [GASPS]
[GASPS]
hey, what's shakin'?
what do you want from me?
Blob: We've come to contribute something
to your campaign...
advice.
And not the friendly kind.
We want you to leave us out of your anti-Mutant crusade...
Or else!
Or else what?
Ok, boys. He wants to know what else.
Let's show him.
Back off! now!
And just what are you... gonna do about it, red eye?
Whatever it takes.
Ok by me!
What, are you crazy?
We'll get our heads handed to us.
Save this for another day.
[BLOWS RASPBERRY]
aah!
Uhh.
One way or another, summers,
I will drive you mutants out of bayville!
All of you! And that's a promise!
Nightcrawler: Well...
I'm not voting for him.
Avalanche: I've had it with the X-Men!
[GRUNTING]
aah!
Uhh! Whoa!
Listen, the X-Men will get theirs.
But right now, we got bigger problems.
We've been bumped to the third page!
Third Page?!
is our 15 minutes of fame already up?
Felt more like 5 minutes... or maybe 10.
The only mention of us is that we'll be cutting the ribbon tomorrow
at the new zoo, but that's it.
Mm. Then I say we got to remind the public
just how much they need us.
Hang tight, bros.
I got an idea.
Did you hear what happened?
The X-Men came after us... Big time.
I guess watching our father go down in Flames
wasn't enough for them.
We're next on the list.
Pietro: I'd just like to say
what an honor it is to be here,
even though There are some out there who are resentful of our fame.
I don't want to name names,
but... like the X-Men.
Aah!
[ALARMED CRIES]
uhh! I can't stop it!
It must be Wanda.
Hey! She's messing with my powers!
Uhh!
Ohh!
Aah!
Uhh! Get me out of here!
Aah! Aah!
Ohh!
Aah! Aah!
Kitty.
Well, they can't hold us, you know.
Xavier: I know.
Which is precisely the reason
you're all staying put,
at least until I can straighten this out.
We mutants only want to live in peace.
It's criminals like the X-Men
who ruin it for us all.
Look at that emotion!
The tears!
They should give me my own show.
[yawns[ you know, being a villainous hero
can really wear a guy out.
I'm pooped.
Yeah. I'm thinking we ought to quit while we're ahead.
Quit? We can't quit.
My career's just taking off!
PIETRO: No, he's right.
But I say we go out the way we came in... with a bang.
A show-stopper, a legend-Maker!
A final act of heroism
that this town will never forget.
[GASPS]
[GRUNTS]
DISPATCHER: Sp102 south, you missed your turnout.
We need you to clear the tracks for the northbound cargo.
Dispatch, I have a full system failure!
We are a runaway!
Can you clear the northbound?
Negative. Northbound is passing the alternate tracks.
Brakes are employed,
but we must establish a code 5 collision Scenario now.
Todd: Never fear, people.
The Brotherhood has arrived.
We'll stop that runaway train.
Yeah, but what about the other train?
Uh, what other train?
The radio says one's coming the other way
carrying 8 tankers of gasoline.
Oh, yeah.
This'll go out with a bang.
Well, you can't win 'em all.
See you outside the blast zone!
I told you we should've quit while we were ahead.
What's going on?
The Brotherhood has GONE too far
and created a crisis situation.
Are people hurt?
No, not yet.
But the authorities cannot defuse it.
So they've asked for our help.
Uhh! Who are you?
We'll explain later. Let's go!
Where's Kitty?
Uhh!
[GRUNTING]
what are you doing?!
I'm gonna phase this train through that one!
What?! no!
That's way too much!
There's no other choice!
Jean can't stop it in time!
[GRUNTING]
JEAN: Uhh!
I... I can't hold it!
[SIGHS]
AVALANCHE: Don't worry.
That's the last of the heroics.
Count on it.
And so all charges against the X-Men
have been dropped,
while an investigation is underway to determine
if the Brotherhood were indeed behind
the recent Rash of bayville disasters.
No!
No! Not the big screen!
Well, what now?
You guys want to take the new subway into the city?
Pietro: Aah! Aah! A simple "No" Would suffice!
Aah! Oww!
