As Kakashi was busy duking it out with Apocalypse, Jean broke the mind control that was on Psylocke. It took some time but she was eventually able to succeed with Apocalypse not being able to reinforce the mind control with Kakashi keeping him busy.
Psylocke's eyes fluttered open. For a moment she looked confused. Then her expression hardened. She pushed herself up from the sand despite blood pouring from the gun shot wounds.
Her psychic blades flickered back into existence for a second before she dismissed them as she fell back to the ground in pain. She turned toward the main fight. Her gaze locked on Apocalypse with pure hatred.
She then looked at Jean. "You have my thanks. Your professor is inside the pyramid. Apocalypse is trying to get inside his mind and control him too before he could do his body transfer."
Jean nodded. She gestured to Nightcrawler who nodded and teleported to find Charles and get him to safety. A puff of smoke marked his departure. Everyone hoped he would reach the professor in time.
Psylocke looked at Natasha and said, "Thanks for not killing me. You are a very skilled fighter. It is good to see another woman this good."
Natasha nodded. A small, respectful smile crossed her face. The two women shared a brief moment of understanding.
Jean then said, "We have to help Mr. Kakashi with Apocalypse. He seems to be in a stalemate with him."
They looked at the figure of the masked man engaged in a battle that was leaving craters as they went at each other. Kakashi flickered in and out of sight. Lightning crackled around him.
Apocalypse countered with portals, telekinesis, and energy blasts. The desert floor was scarred with deep gouges and blackened patches. Sand still hung in the air from their last exchange.
Jean turned toward the two women and said, "Logan and Captain America are done with their fight."
They turned to see Sabretooth had been encased in complete ice by Iceman who had come to help Cap and Logan with Tony after their fight with Pyro.
Sabretooth was encased in ice. Unable to move and with that he was unable to fight. The massive beast was frozen mid-roar. His claws were still extended.
Iceman stood nearby, breathing hard but looking satisfied. Cap wiped sweat from his brow. Logan retracted his claws with a grunt.
They had decided to deal with Sabretooth's strong healing by just sealing him in ice so that he would not longer be a problem for now.
Jean then said, "We also have to help Ororo and others against Magneto too. His powers have grown by a lot."
The women saw iron beams raining down on Storm who used tornado to deflect them. The two Omegas were going at each other with god-level prowess of their abilities.
But it was clear that Storm was on the disadvantage and it would not take long for Magneto to win.
She then said, "If we manage to get the helmet off his head, I might be able to break off his mind control too."
"Good. Then let's get on with it," Cap said walking toward them with everyone else who were done with the fight: Logan, Tony, and Bobby.
They moved some distance away from Magneto and Storm's fight with Cyclops supporting her from a distance. And Angel trying to take some of the attention by just flying around and dodging attacks.
Bobby said, "Logan don't get in closer than this. We know Magneto's range to control metals has increased but not by how much. We don't want you to be ripped from inside by him. And Cap if you want to go closer, you would have to let go of the shield. That shield would be used against us by Magneto."
Cap and Logan nodded. They made a quick plan and executed it as Jean using telepathy told the plan to everyone. Psylocke was out of the fight since she had wounds from being shot.
Angel, Cap, Tony, and Natasha moved at a rapid speed toward the flying Magneto.
Magneto was about to use the metal and crush them with it. But he felt all his metal stop in place.
Jean with all of her power used telekinesis to stop all of the ammunition that Magneto had. Her face sweated as she did this. Veins stood out on her forehead. Her hands trembled from the effort. Holding back that much metal along with fighting Magneto's control over them took everything she had.
Magneto tried to break from it and would have if Iceman did not shoot ice toward him. He had to form an electromagnetic barrier to defend against it.
But he was sufficiently distracted for Natasha to jump from flying and still metal beams toward him from Magneto's blind spot.
She took off his helmet as Jean let go of the metal and immediately went inside Magneto's head to break him from the mind control.
Bobby high-fived Cyclops with joy of their mission being success but it was short-lived.
As a portal opened in front of Jean as a hand stretched out of it and grasped Jean by her neck.
Then Apocalypse walked out of it with only one hand while the other was just a stub.
"No you don't girl. I have already lost my other useless horsemen. But this one has potential. I can't let you take him away from accompanying me in my true mission."
