With the Black Bird fully repaired thanks to Iron Man and Beast, the X-Men and Fantastic Four were inbound to the abomination ruled city of New York to face the former Avengers. Trailing behind was the Fantastic Four's ship and the other heroes who could
fly.

"Ah can't wait to put the beat down on those nasties down there." Smirked Rogue as she slamed her clawed fists together, itching for a fight.
Rubbing her slightly swollen naval as she watched Rogue's enthusiasm, Storm hummed to herself, she knew she was pregnant and rapidly growing, enjoying the swelling under her palms as her belly grew. "I too wish to bring retribution for their acts Rogue,
the chaos they have wrought..." Storm's eyes glowed white as the weather outside grew dark, reflecting her anger. "It shall be answered for!"
"They still don't realise we're not dead, this will be a surpise for sure when we take them down." Looking back at the rest of the X-Men Cyclops smirked.
Beast and Colossus had to have been the largest of the group at over 12 feet tall, Rasputin looking like a green metal-skinned monster and McCoy looking like a gamma powered bear or gorilla. the others were just as big and ready for a fight, Wolverine checking
his claws while Ice Man covered his scales in frost. looked out the windows for anything coming their way Emma scanned for any minds nearby with her powers while Xavier and Magneto sat at the controls flying the Bird. Scarlet Witch and Quicksilver had gotten
over their transformation and were looking forward for some payback at the ones who destroyed their home.
As soon as the city came into view Emma cringed at the activity she could read at the ground, looking to Scott with a worried look in her eyes.
"There are so many Scott, such cruelty, so dark..."
"Guees we're here then."

In the Fantastic Four's ship Spider-Man, Black Cat, Mary Jane, She Hulk and Tigra flew with the cosmic team of heroes as they joined the X-Men, the Thing at the controls as the others waited to land.
"Get ready ya lugs, we're here." Called Ben as he landed the ship with the Black Bird nearby, getting out of his seat he looked at his hands one last time, like the others he changed but he looked more like he was made of jade instead of orange stone, sharp
crystal formations jutted from his arms and back, as well as his hands and feet forming claws.
"Jeez look at that!" Pointed Johnny at the spire-like towers constructed by the horde, littered with vast cobwebs and buzzing with thousands of Wasp's children. "Looks like a damn termite mount."
"That's Wasp's handy work." Moaned She Hulk as she hefted her bulk out of the ship, rubbing circles around her expanding belly. "She wants to make this world hers and destroy everything else in the process."
"With all the damage they've done I wonder why the rest of the country hasn't sent in the army."
"They did! The Avengers smashed everything they brought in and ate the rest." Answered Spider Man as he and his two lovers exited the craft, looking around at the former city.
"I hope they don't decide on a nuclear deterence to stop them." Worried Reed Richards who looked at the scraps and remains of the military forces and machines left behind in the fight days ago. "Our new bodies feed off of radiation now, if a bomb were to
set off here... it may destroy their home but it would horribly empower the horde further, maybe even make them invinsible."
"Lets hope it doesn't come to that, if we're lucky we can stop this before the city's a smoking crater."
Meeting up with the X-Men nearby they made a plan to attack the Avengers and reclaim the city. Thor and Iron Man landed minutes later, gathering with the rest of the heroes.
