《A Mutant’s Ascension》A Mutant's Ascension

[Kamar-Taj, Nepal]
The Ancient One quietly sat inside her room and pondered over what she was going to do in the future. It was quite clear to her that the future was changing but that wasn't her only problem… no matter how much she tried she was unable to see the future changes until it was happening.
The Ancient One knew that this was happening because of the being that arrived in this world. She knew that Itsuki Reo was a cosmic entity and it might be the reason that she was unable to watch his future using the Time Stone, after all, it could be the case that there might be some connection between them. From what she knew, the Infinity Stones were created by the Big Bang but that might not be the case… some cosmic entities might have helped to make these stones.
The Ancient One was approached by several masters of Mystic Arts just an hour ago. Leviathan broadcasted his announcement throughout the world and the masters of Kamar-Taj were not an exception. Naturally, they wanted to help the humans against this Leviathan… that is the reason they approached the Ancient One to ask her permission to leave Kamar-Taj to confront Leviathan.
Their request was swiftly denied by the Ancient One, after all, she very well knew what this being was and what he was capable of doing. The Ancient One knew that there was no way that they could win against someone like that… there was only one hope for them… they could only hope to trap them in another dimension. Like the Mirror Dimension… but the Ancient One wasn't sure that they would be able to hold Itsuki Reo with that.
The Ancient One had already seen Luna's ability to travel through dimensions and realities and it would be stupid of her to think that Luna didn't have the ability to pull out Itsuki Reo from whatever place she would trap him.
Now, the Ancient One didn't think of Itsuki Reo as an enemy, she very well knew that it won't mean anything to him even if she sees him as her enemy. But it would be good for her if Itsuki Reo doesn't think of her as an enemy. The Ancient One wasn't bothered with whatever was happening now… she wasn't bothered that Itsuki Reo was going to destroy a whole city… the reason behind this was quite simple. This wasn't the first time a war has broken out…
The Ancient One had lived for six centuries, throughout her extremely long life she had seen many wars. This wasn't the first time a war has broken out between humans and mutants… till now, she had never picked up a side in the wars between humans and mutants and she won't pick a side now… she had promised Itsuki Reo that she was going to stay away from this conflict and she will do just that.

She can't have Itsuki Reo turning his ire towards her sanctuary or her fellow masters of mystic arts. The Ancient One knew that her main job is not to protect humans… her job was to protect the Earth from the threats of other dimensions. The Ancient One had decided to stand aside during this skirmish… yes, she called this a skirmish after all, for a being like Itsuki Reo, destroying a city was just a skirmish…
[POV Reo]
While I was flying towards the tallest building in the city I was watching the city. The city was crawling with the army and their vehicles. It was quite clear that they were evacuating the city. I also noticed a team of soldiers positioned on the roof where I had promised to show up.
It's good that I had asked the girls to start broadcasting everything happening here after I land on the roof. Currently, two helicopters were also flying around the tallest building making rounds. Heh… I, at least appreciate the welcoming party they had planned for me…
I decided to make a Superhero landing… after all, there is no rule saying that Supervillains can't make a Superhero landing. So, I started to rise in the air and finally descended towards the roof.
*boom*
With a small boom, I landed on the roof. I didn't even put much force behind my landing and the roof also had cracks… if I find the person responsible for the construction of this building I will sue him… I looked around and found that the team waiting for me on the roof lost their footing when I landed… sorry… that wasn't my intention.
I rose from my position and felt their guns being pointed in my direction… I could already feel the thrill, it has been so long since I have done something like this… I felt this kind of thrill when I was fighting All For One… ah… I really miss the old times.
"Hands up! You are surrounded Leviathan!" I heard a man shout and come forward with his gun pointed in my direction. With his announcement, the helicopters returned towards the roof and pointed their 50-cals in my direction. I just smirked without moving.
"Now why would I do that?" I mocked and without me even raising my hand I shook the whole building. Everyone around flinched back in fear.
"Men steady!" the man who was in charge barked out in frustration. "Activate the mutant suppression zone" the same man said through his radio. I immediately felt something wash over me but I wasn't even bothered because I wasn't a meta-human.

"Really? You were betting on this piece of crap tech?" I once again mocked them. It was quite clear that they had no plans for negotiation. They just wanted to capture me and when that failed they were going to put me down…
At least this was the tallest building so no snipers were pointing in my direction. It wouldn't have been a problem for me to take them on too… but it's much better like this and I don't think that human ammunition is going to hurt me. Maybe a nuke could do the job… unfortunately for them, Luna and I had made all of them impotent. They will be able to shoot them but there won't be any fireworks…
"Put him down!" the man in charge barked out and finally everyone started to fire towards me. I decided to use my Aegis Shield to stop the bullets… after all, this was much more relaxing than using my metal powers. Suddenly I felt something big and massive collide against my mental shields… I am not gonna lie… I felt some pain and I very well knew who it was…
Charles if want you enter my mind so badly then I will allow you to take a peek… with this thought I opened my barriers and allowed him entrance… I could feel the fear rolling from the soldiers around me and the reason for their fear was the smile plastered on my face…
[Xavier Mansion, New York]
"You are saying that Leviathan's true name is Itsuki Reo?" General Newman asked Charles Xavier.
"Yes, he lived in the mansion for 5 months and left about three weeks ago but at that time he looked much younger… he looked around 18" Charles explained, during the broadcast, he wasn't able to recognize Itsuki Reo because of the age difference.
General Newman and his men decided to watch the broadcast once more to get some additional information. They have recorded the complete broadcast and this time Charles was able to recognize Itsuki Reo. So, he told the authorities everything he knew about Itsuki Reo which was practically nothing except his name… after all, Reo's lightning powers were nothing major.
"People don't grow old by several years in a few weeks" General Newman growled in anger. It was getting really annoying for him, he wasn't able to get any practical information from Charles and time was running out for them.
"It could be his brother" one of General Newman's men spoke up from the side. General Newman nodded his head… after all, it was quite plausible. But Charles didn't believe that… there was something telling him that this was Itsuki Reo the same Itsuki Reo he trained for 5 months.
"I am going to the Cerebro" Charles declared with a determined look on his face. There was no way he would allow Itsuki Reo or Leviathan to harm humans…
"What do you want to do?" General Newman asked him in a bewildered tone.
"I am going to end this now… I can't allow this to go on any longer" Charles vowed and continued to head towards the Cerebro room. After he recognized Leviathan as Itsuki Reo he vowed to destroy him after all, he was the one who trained Reo and he believed it was the teacher's duty to put down his student when his student lost his path and took on a dark path.
Charles finally arrived in the Cerebro room and activated his beloved machine. As soon as Cerebro activated he put on his helmet and pointed his mind towards locating Itsuki Reo. He wasn't disappointed as Itsuki Reo soon showed up on the roof of the tallest building like he had promised. Charles decided to wait for a few moments before attacking… as soon as the soldiers started to shoot Charles decided to attack.
Charles was completely taken aback by the strength of the mental shields Itsuki Reo had. But before he could attack he found that the mental shields collapsing… he didn't want to lose this chance and entered Itsuki Reo's mind. What he found inside wasn't something he had imagined… the whole place was completely dark until suddenly flames erupted from numerous torches. Charles was completely taken aback and started to look around in a frantic manner…
It was an ancient temple… an old and somewhat decrepit temple with huge statues all around covering the whole room… "What have I done?" Charles whispered in fear…

Nova: Omega
Nova: Omega is the story of Hitori Seishin, a mercenary on the planet of Esper. He leads Omega team in the Nova Mercenary Academy, and is the son of the legendary warrior Maia Seishin, now deceased. He is in the final days of his education at the elite Academy, where at the last minute he’s assigned a new teammate, Elvira. She is a total novice, but her unique abilities make her a promising addition to his team. We join the pair on their journey, Hitori, fighting to prove he belongs amongst the ranks of warriors indisputably his better, and Elvira, struggling to adapt to a world where the trophy for second place is a tombstone. Meanwhile, ancient and powerful forces clash in the shadows, racing across the globe to secure powerful artifacts capable of upending the foundations of the world. New chapters released every MWF. Sorry for the random tiny chapters. I structured and uploaded this as a series of scenes, some of which just didn't need to be very long. I could probably attach the "sub-scenes" to previous chapters, but that'd only be covering it up, so I'm not sure its worth it. Anyway if you find them annoying, let me know, and I'll put some more thought into it. I did, at least, make a point of always posting at least a thousand words on any given day (after I noticed the problem), which hopefully mitigates the problem.
