"Previously on X-Men..." "What have you done with my wife ?" "Mrs. Summers is iust another broken blossom, floating through the winds of time." "They've taken Jean to the one place you can't get to." "And where is here ?" "Here is the Axis of Time, where all times cross." "Mr. Sinister tried to capture both of us." "Now Apocalypse has taken the Shi'ar courtier known as Oracle." "If Apocalypse and Sinister have joined forces, all existence is in danger." "We'll use Cerebro to track down other mutants with psychic powers." "And we'll be there when Apocalypse or Sinister strikes." "Guess again !" "May I help ?" "Magneto !" "What do you want with me ?" "Don't worry." "No harm will come to you yet." "What happened ?" "Where are the others ?" "We messed up." "Psylocke's gone." "I bet this clown knows what's going on." "It seems that Charles Xavier has deduced the pattern of my plan." "All the better as he will be my final prize." "I wanted to nail Apocalypse by destroying his Lazarus Chamber." "Our only hope is to go so far back that we get rid of the chamber at its point of origin." "The government still has a time machine ?" "It's in there." "And we're going to borrow it." " Guess who ?" " Not again !" "And again, and again, and again and again and again." "Look, clown, I've had a long day, or week, or however long it's been." "All walk and no play makes Bishop a dull boy." " What was that ?" " A great being threatens time itself." "Knowledge is power !" "Let's watch these guys." "That's Cable !" "It will be." "It would be." "It can be, it could be, and maybe it should be." "Can we be ?" " Ready, Dad ?" " Yeah, kid." "Start the ball." "Okay, guys." "Give us 30 seconds, then let's lose one power station." "I wish you'd let me go with you." "I know, Tyler." "But if I don't make it, I need you to carry on here." "I know you'll make me proud." "Remember, Dad, the energy dome will only be down for a minute." "Tyler, the dome is still up !" "They've run into heavy resistance !" " What's happening ?" " I'm not getting any word from them !" "Tyler, the power station must be destroyed !" "It's the only chance we have !" "Tyler ?" "Are you all right ?" "Tyler !" "Dad !" "Get going !" "I'll be back for you !" "Take your time." "I'll be gone in a minute." "Graymalkin." "I hope they kept your battery charged." "What's happening ?" "You yearn to destroy my resting place at its inception." "A wise strategy." "But first, you have a service to perform." "What am I doing here ?" "I was about to ask you the very same thing." "I don't care about missing psychics and time jolts." "I'm after Apocalypse." "Look." "Apocalypse was involved in at least one of the kidnappings." "My guess is that our interests coincide." "You're boring me." "If you want to help me nail him, get your team together, and let's get started !" "It is conceivable that a powerful force traveling through time creates a backwash, a kind of wake, that disrupts the paths of normal time travelers." "It's lust a theory." "You have no evidence this happened to my brother." "Bishop's disappearance in time fits the computer model perfectly." "Note the effect of the more powerful time traveler on the first." "You're too stupid to plan this on your own." " Who are you working for ?" " Suck rocks, pretty boy." "The Professor wants you in the War Room." "Why not ?" "I'm just wasting my time here." "Okay, hairball." "Let's talk." "It's called the Lazarus Chamber." "I discovered it, will discover it, 2000 years from now." "It's the secret to Apocalypse's longevity." "He goes into hibernation there every 100 years." "So that's it !" "All my research pointed to periodic dormant times for Apocalypse." "But I could never discover why or where !" "I destroyed the chamber in my time, in 3999." "But before I did, Apocalypse grabbed my time travel device." "Now he can just return to any time before the chamber was destroyed to rejuvenate himself." "I'm going back to when the pyramid was first built and get rid of it then." "Let's do it !" "Wait a minute !" "What about Sinister and the missing psychics ?" "Find someone who cares !" "I left my son back there so I could get at Apocalypse." "I may never see Tyler again." " There's more to this than lust him !" " No, there isn't." "Sabretooth's working for the guy." "Everybody might be." "I understood that he had refused to talk." "He changed his mind." "What else did he say ?" "The pieces to the puzzle don't fit." "Why on earth would Magneto be involved with Apocalypse ?" "It took an hour to get that out of him." "You want more, you know how to get it." "I have chosen not to invade the minds of others without their consent." "If it's important, get it out of him." "Or I will." "Very well." "Cable is right !" "We must stop him at all costs !" " What did you see ?" " Portals." "Clocks." "Time-related images." "Apocalypse seems bent on mastering time itself, and has persuaded some of the most powerful mutants on Earth to help him." "If we take out his life-support system, then none of this will ever take place." "I agree, Cable." "Shard, you, Rogue and Jubilee stay here, in case Cable's theory proves wrong." "Why can't I go ?" "Don't you think I can handle it ?" "It's not that, Shard." "If we fail, your ability to travel through time may be your brother's last hope." "I want to go with you." "There's no room on this mission for vengeance." "I don't know." "Revenge can sure help you focus." "Not for me anymore." "I know what's at stake now." "Tiny, meddling insects !" "They don't realize that he who controls time," " controls every eventuality !" " Apocalypse." "You summoned me ?" "Yes." "The endgame has begun." "Good thing they don't serve lunch on this flight." "Watch it !" "Billions of miles of space and people still can't drive !" "The pyramid's over the rise, down river." "Storm, take Archangel and scout ahead to see if the pyramid is guarded." "We will follow on the ground." "Beautiful, is it not ?" "My parents loved this land." "And though my life was hard after they were gone, I loved it, too." "The pyramid appears to be unguarded." "Bring the others up while I make sure." "Your timing is perfect, Cable." "Those stone blocks at the base suggest that construction has recently been completed." "We will need a diversion to cover our approach." "You shall have it, Professor." "Wind, howl and raise the sands of the desert !" "Before we go in, I lust wanted to say I'm sorry about your son." "I know what it's like to lose someone you love." "I haven't lost him yet." "Professor, do you know anything more about why Apocalypse is kidnapping psychics ?" "Who cares ?" "He's pure evil, and that's why he's got to go !" "If Apocalypse is indeed the personification of evil," " it may be impossible to destroy him." " Why ?" "The conflict between good and evil is part of the fabric of existence." "Perhaps the world cannot exist without evil." "If Apocalypse is destroyed, evil may only take another form." "I'll worry about that later." "The entrance is there, behind that stone !" "Allow me." "Shall we see who is at home ?" "The Four Horsemen !" "Cable was right !" "Apocalypse has protected himself !" "There's no use fighting me !" "I had your job once." "Go get Apocalypse !" "We can hold these guys here !" "Just be careful !" "Cable, Wolverine, Beast, come with me !" "Don't move !" " What is it ?" " Fresh tree sap ?" " I know where all the booby traps are." "Beast !" "Maybe next time you'll trust my nose." "Thanks." "I don't know how I missed that one before." "Apparently Apocalypse will make a few alterations in the next 5000 years." "They're going back in to save the chamber !" "Inside !" "Now !" "Well, you'll be here in 5000 years, which way do we go ?" "Where you going ?" "I told you I knew where the booby traps were." "It appears fighting metal with flesh is poor tactics." "That's more like it !" "Cable !" "Look out !" " Hey, pal, leave a few of them for us." " The Lazarus Chamber." "It's in there." " What's the verdict, doc ?" " Nothing broken." "However," "I would not count on him helping much in the next few minutes." "We'll pick up Cable on our way back." "Now, let's find Apocalypse and do what we came to do." "Magnificent." "The pyramid acts as a huge energy collector to regenerate Apocalypse as he sleeps." " Wait !" "I smell two rats in this barn !" " Something is wrong." "It's..." "Now, Apocalypse !" "Xavier ?" "Wolverine ?" "Cyclops !" "What happened ?" " What was that ?" " The most important move of all." "The capture of the king !" "Professor Charles Xavier !"
