The darkness faded and Sven fell to his knees . He breathed deep and with difficulty , panting by experience . Looking up , Sven saw that he had some further in the streets . They looked at the same figure golden that Sven had seen. They had still on fire in the streets , but most of the buildings had caught fire extinct .
" Now we must get rid of the evil that has tried make you damage ," he said .
He threw to the ground a man whose fur shone as gold melted . Sven watched it , fearful by his life . He looked at Salvador, with his arms high as Yeah was about to beg by his life . Sven let out a scream, just like the Molten Man's ; Salvador reached out his hand towards forward , and the darkness after he enveloped the Molten Man . Mark screamed , his voice drowned by the darkness . Marks blacks spread through Sven 's skin, and scratched himself the arms . The images flashed before their eyes : the day of the Cataclysm . So many dead , so many more shattered by he .
"No never more , " he thought .
El Salvador tightened he fist , and darkness spread by he Mark's body . His hand was sticking out of the mass that had formed , trembling as Yeah were suffering a seizure .
"No more ," the tears flooded the Sven's eyes .
His father smiled at him . Then saw , saw he body , saw he coffin fall in he hole , he saw the earth that covered it , he saw his mother and his little sister crying .
" Nobody more ," he whispered .
The Savior lifted Mark from the ground ; child had stopped . The darkness began to move his arm towards the black mass , to consume it by complete .
" Nobody further " die ," said Sven.
His eyes narrowed . He saw a young man . Dealing with gambling debts , he saw a man offering him a exit . Then he saw the young man arguing with a girl , although could perceive the great love and concern that existed between them .
"Stop risking your life ," he heard her say. say .
It was the love between brothers , a sister and a brother . He saw his own sister cry disconsolately .
" Nobody further will feel " This pain," said Sven, squeezing the teeth and holding on he heart .
A light began to shine about he and his hair began to flow and bristle .
"NOT ON MY GUARD!" Sven shouted .
There was a bang and a vibe expansive that made shudder Saviour . He raised his hand, protecting himself from a dust cloud . Energy spirals dark and light emerged from the dust , scorching his armor . Gary squinted the eyes as he saw a foot pop out of the dust . Suddenly , something slammed into Gary's face , throwing him toward back . He looked and saw someone with his foot up , behind to have him tipped a kick fierce . They were hidden because of the total darkness ; only its bright lights could be seen eyes reds and their hair pointed . Gary's wings moved away from the Molten Man , who gasped in looking for air . The newly arrived landed hunched over , puffing like an animal.
"You are a creature of darkness , so you seek save your " ally ," Gary growled .
He raised his hand, invoking torrents of lightning yellow . Then he threw it toward forward , releasing the volts . But Sven disappeared suddenly , appearing over one beam and then around another , inverted . Gary increased the charge, releasing further energy beams . Sven appeared next to Gary, swinging his leg and striking a kick in the face . The force of the blow released a small vibe expansive and threw Saviour to the ground . Gary used his wings to cushion the fall , dragging them against the ground before stopping . It accumulated energy in his hand, turning it into a whip .
"I am pure light, never I'll let one darkness like yours infect this world ," he said .
The whip got caught in he Sven's neck , knocking him to the ground . Sven landed , pulling the whip and enduring the burning pain . He felt as Yeah a chain with thorns would have wrapped he neck . He almost collapses , wasted by the pain, but I knew I would die if he did it . Gary called a lance in his hand and pointed it at Sven.
"An evil like he Yours is irredeemable , it must be erased forever , " he stated The Savior before throwing the spear .
Sven looked by over his shoulder and saw the people behind him . If he moved , they would die , so he nailed the heels in he ground and crossed the arms . The spear struck him , creating a explosion of light that dragged him back to the ground . Smoke rose from the Sven's arms and screamed , feeling he stinging of a old wound in he arm . Sven threw other projectile and Sven prepared himself . The sparks of light spread to another building , lighting it fire .
—No, please no —Sven tried jump to reach it , but the chains wrapped around around his body and crashed it against the floor .
" You helped your friend escape , I won't let anyone further get out hurt by " your fault," Gary hit his foot on he Sven's neck , generating further sparks that illuminated the buildings to your around .
—No, no, please stop —Sven wanted shouted at the man to stop , but he could n't .
The people he shouted , in danger , wounded and close to death . Sven screamed , struggling against his bonds . He grabbed Gary's foot and pushed him toward back . But Gary invoked a sword and cut him he Sven's chest . The boy shouted , his voice resonating by the effects of its power . The Savior raised his sword for above his head and pointed it at Sven's heart . Sven looked the buildings to your around and shouted challenging . While The Savior attacked him with his sword, Sven stabbed him the heels and squeezed the teeth . A blade pierced his back and blood splashed he floor .
Charles and Magnus/Max still were sitting , while the fumes rose from its trees .
— I heard that you you divorced . Moira couldn't stand you flirting with other people "Women ?" Magnus asked .
" I was n't that bad , it wasn't about love, just trust ... I abused her trust . It ended marrying a man who abused her , " Charles said .
Didn't you think? in lift it off the ground ?
"She didn't need that , now has a laboratory on Muir Island . "
"I know , I've read about some of his works about mutation . Do you know that really provides containment cells for the MRD? "
—Moira never I would do nothing inhumane —Charles squinted the eyes towards Magnus.
"And if the methods necessary to contain a mutant dangerous Would you have to be inhumane ? Would you use kind words ? Methods must be used . firm but fair ," said Magnus.
"But we have to be better than that , Magnus," Charles said .
"Ah, yes , we will have a world where all seek to be better , free from profits and... that "Sounds familiar, doesn't it , Picard?" Magnus smiled. while Charles shook his head.
—You know how much " I hate Star Trek," Charles complained .
" Because tea you look like much to one of his characters further moralists ?"
The entire ideology of the Fleet Stellar ... Never I understood well the concept of " improvement of humanity " is too vague and they never fully clarified it . With what criteria Are you looking for improvement ? It's not about improvement . monetary , since apparently no longer exists in that society ( although it sometimes contradicts itself ) . Is it then from one improvement philosophical , intellectual , technological or moral? And if so , with what criteria is based on ? Who can be considered he " A model of moral virtue and absolution ?" Charles asked .
"You don't believe in "good and evil ," said Magnus.
"You know I think in good and evil , but I don't think it exists someone completely fair . I think there are people absolutely good in this world , people fighting against their nature dark , people who strive by do the right thing . And there are those who They are so convinced that they have reason , and that what they do is right , that the consequences , the losses , do not have no value to them ," Charles explained .
"Don't you think that sometimes the end justifies the means ?" Magnus asked .
"Not to those who are the means ," Charles replied .
It was done other silence while were drinking . Charles put a finger to his head, tapping it , and then reached out for on top of the table, like Yeah moviera a chess piece . Magnus shook his head and chuckled , making he same motion .
" Does already some time since we played . Against whom? have you put yourself to the test ?
" Tea remember Sage?"
"A woman with hair dark ? A mind like that of a computer ? A woman very attractive , but very out of your " reach ," Magnus smiled as Charles frowned at him. he frown .
—Please, I've never considered " seduce Sage," Charles said , chuckling . while Magnus threw at him a look doubtful .
-As if you were someone with whom speak , even being married you had chemistry with that Darkholme . Have you followed ? in contact with her ? — asked Charles.
" I got it , now this married to Irene."
" So you two won't get together , it 's a pity , always I thought that after Magda, you two would have made a " good couple," Charles lowered his head as spoke .
—Magda was the only Charles, I tried continue forward but I could n't —Magnus shook his head and finished his tea .
—Tell me, is there any time the did you find ?
"The children ? Or the " Bastards who killed her ?" Magnus asked .
"Both!" said Charles.
"Your opinion about my would change Yeah responded that question . There is darkness in Me , Charles. You wouldn't think the same of me. Yeah you knew exactly how much ," Magnus explained .
There is darkness and light in all us , Magnus. As I said , it 's how we balance both that determines that kind of people we are . The world this crowded ignorant , of people who disagree , of people who hate . But even These people are capable of doing the good , capable of helping others others . I don't think that the world this full of people who want do damage , but help Yeah "maybe ," Charles explained .
"But that morality brings people together in groups , gives us politics , war and genocide , and the altruism , the heroism and holiness . Our people needs a hero who defend , this people common " Here ," Magnus pointed out to everyone the others in the room. " They need someone who represent as superiors . I would do it , if only so the wrong person would n't do it !"
"Jonathon Haidt," Charles murmured . " Always I preferred Arthur Ashe: 'The real heroism is remarkably sober , very undramatic . It is not the desire to surpass the others to anyone price , but he desire to serve the others to anyone price '".
