The Epic of Leviathan (A Mutant's Ascension)

Chapter 169 - Reactions & New Home...



When Reo and the girls appeared in the world they caused a massive energy spike in the desert. Organizations like SHIELD and HYDRA that was growing inside SHIELD noticed this phenomenon. As soon as they noticed the spike they pointed the high-tech satellite towards the desert but they didn\'t find anything.

Even if they were using satellites they were slow, after all, it was just 2002. Technology hasn\'t developed up to that point in this era, it would take at least 10 more years to reach that level. ​​

[SHIELD Headquarters, New York]

"So, what\'s the report?" A bald man with an eye-patch spoke to a man with a huge forehead.

"Nothing sir, it\'s confirmed that the energy spike we detected has erupted from the desert but there is nothing else" The man with the huge forehead answered the bald man.

"What kind of energy did the sensors detect" The bald man asked again.

"No idea sir, the only thing we do know is that it is a type of energy that messes with electronic objects" The man with a huge forehead answered.

"Send Agent Barton and keep me posted Coulson!" The bald man with the eye patch ordered. This man was also known as Nick Fury the current Director of SHIELD. The man he was talking to is Agent Phil Coulson who nodded his head after hearing the order and left the room. Nick was left in deep contemplation… he didn\'t like not knowing.

HYDRA didn\'t need to send any agents to gather any information because what information SHIELD gathered they could easily get their hands on.

There were a lot of organizations that noticed this energy spike but none of them were able to react in time.

[Xavier Mansion, New York]

While the organizations were busy gathering information, one man named Charles Xavier was already on his way to his beloved machine. He has also noticed the energy spike… even though he is strong, he isn\'t strong enough to notice everything going on around the world.

He entered the room where Cerebro was kept, one man and a woman trailed behind him seeing the urgency on his face. As soon as the machine powered up Charles Xavier put on his helmet and connected with Cerebro. He immediately looked in the direction from where he has sensed the energy spike but unfortunately, he didn\'t find anything.

He found this rather worrying, after all, he wasn\'t the only one who noticed the energy spike. He checked the surroundings of the region and finally found something odd… it was some kind of interference. He didn\'t know if any mutants were responsible for this or not but there was something out there that can mess with his beloved machine.

Charles finally sighed in disappointment and took off the helmet turning off his connection to Cerebro.

"Professor what happened?" the woman that was trailing him asked worriedly. The woman had tan skin and white hair. The woman\'s name was Ororo Munroe, she was also known as Storm.

"I have sensed a huge energy spike that appeared in the middle of the Sahara Desert and I decided to check it out" Charles said with a sad smile on his face.

"What did you find Professor? Is Magneto behind this?" The man who came along with Charles and Ororo asked the question. The man was wearing odd-looking futuristic glasses over his eyes. The man\'s name was Scott Summers also known as Cyclops.

"No, I found nothing. Some kind of interference is blocking Cerebro… it can be a mutant who can block my powers" Charles said but this time he regained his usual smile back.

"Professor, we can take the jet and check it out" Scott said, Ororo also agreed as it could be a mutant whose X-gene awakened and caused the energy spike. He or she could be alone and scared…

"You can\'t, I wasn\'t the only one who noticed the energy spike. Several organizations related to the various countries are already on the way" Charles said and left the room. Even though neither of them liked it they agreed that they needed to stay hidden.

[Kamar-Taj, Nepal]

A woman suddenly woke up during the night noticing something unnatural has happened. She waved her hand and the room lit up and the woman appeared in all her bald glory.

She felt an energy spike from the deserts of Sahara. Until now, she has seen everything… everything that has happened in this world. She has even seen her own Death but what happened today wasn\'t something she has seen. She tried to use the Eye of Agamotto to see what was happening and found herself completely shocked as she didn\'t find anything. It was like the eye of Agamotto had completely stopped working but she knew that it wasn\'t the case as the rest of the visions were still clear to her.

This was quite interesting for her… as after many centuries, she has found something she didn\'t know about. But she didn\'t know what to do now… as she was the protector of Earth, she could check that place herself but she could already see that several organizations making their way there. The Sorcerers have remained hidden until now and that is not going to change now.

She decided to see what things are going to change… for the first time in several centuries she decided to pay attention to the outside world.

[POV Reo]

We finally arrived at Dakhla Airport, after we have prepared all of our fake documents and exchanged a gold biscuit to create a bank account and get a huge amount of cash.

"Was it necessary to use the Imperius?" Dora scathingly asked Nemuri.

"He was asking questions about where I got that thing from… what was I going to do?" Nemuri snarked.

"You could have confounded him" Dora tried to reason.

"Dora, she wiped his mind afterward so there is no need to get angry at her. Either she Imperiused him or he would have pressed the alarm" Momo said in a serious tone. Dora didn\'t like it but she understood why Nemuri did it.

"Dora, you don\'t need to worry about this small stuff, after all, he wasn\'t hurt. He just forgot that he bought a gold biscuit" I said in a nonchalant voice. I don\'t know what she understood but she just pouted.

"So, New York, eh?" Fleur asked finally taking her seat and Luna was looking outside the window like a small girl.

"I always wanted to visit the city that never sleeps" Luna said in an excited voice and kept looking outside. The plane took off quite soon… even if I have seen New York in the HP World I wanted to see it in the MCU & XCU World. Now, that I think of it… did no one notice our arrival in this world?

Ancient One was sure to notice our arrival, but she didn\'t show up. Is she watching us using her peeking stone? Damn that cheating woman but I don\'t want to be her enemy. I don\'t want to end up trapped in the Mirror Dimension… I think I could escape that place if I use my law of lightning but I don\'t want to check it out.

Dora and Luna kept ordering stuff throughout the whole flight. Not that I cared, after all, I had all the money in the world, I could at least allow my girls to indulge in Luxury.

It took us about 8 hours to arrive in New York, the city that never sleeps. It didn\'t take us too long to check out from John F Kennedy International Airport. I was constantly using magic to mess with the surveillance devices. I didn\'t want anyone connecting the dots. Even if we have magically created fake documents there was still the fact that we didn\'t exist in this world until today.

I selected New York as my base of operations due to one major reason. Shield HQ was in New York, Xavier Mansion was also in New York, there was also a sanctum in New York, the Baxter building was also in New York, so New York was going to be the center of trouble.

We had to take two cabs as there were seven of us. We asked the drivers to take us to The Plaza (Hotel). We can arrange everything tomorrow; the girls were quite tired today.

I booked a Villa so that all of us can stay together… I turned on the TV after entering the room. I wanted to know what was going on around the world. Even if I had the memories, I didn\'t know everything going on in the background. Looks like I was right… I turned on the TV and found out several protests are going on… a new bill was going to be introduced by Senator Robert Kelly.

From what I remember the events of X-Men happen in the year 2003. So, I still have some time to arrange everything… I decided to pay my attention to General Thaddeus Ross for now as he has started the Bio-Tech Enhancement Project since last year. Damn! I thank Occlumency for keeping such details.

"Momo, can you make something that can help me hack into anything without getting noticed or caught?" I suddenly asked Momo who was playing pillow fight with Nemuri and Dora. Now, with all these secret organizations around us… I need to keep an eye on them.

Momo stopped and was immediately hit by a pillow on her face. She glared at Nemuri who was whistling while looking in another direction. Momo thought for a few moments before looking at me.

"I can, if Fleur helps me then I can get the thing ready in a week. After all, from what you have told me there are no communities in this world that have managed to combine magic and technology… if I use both of them together, I could get you what you want" Momo said while thinking. Hearing her Fleur also nodded her head. Fleur might have been one of the best enchanters but Momo was the one who taught her everything.

"I have a job for each of you…" I said and started to explain my plans to them.
