In a New York Minute....
They arrived in New York a few seconds after leaving Moscow thanks to Blink. Quinn could have done transporting duty, but there was nothing wrong with sharing the work. It actually felt good to be moving again. They had spent a few days in Moscow while Wanda cleared the way for her to leave for a short while.

While they were waiting Natasha had filled them in with more information about this world and how bad it was. As bad as it was, there were a few small spots of hope. Natasha, God she was hot and Quinn would have shagged her in a second if Patriot wasn't already doing that, had told them that someone connected to New York's Hellfire Club was helping and harboring mutants. The identity of the "Angel of New York" was unknown, but Quinn believed they could find him or her.

There was also mention of Project Bifrost that the Red Skull was working on. There were no details about it since Natasha hadn't been able to find much about it. She said she had nearly been killed trying to get what little information she did get. Magneto had under the advice of an adviser decided not to pursue that matter. Quinn would bet money it had something to do with Thor.

Thor. Quinn bet if Thor had come to this Earth like he had in Quinn's dimension and others from the sound of what his teammates said, maybe the world wouldn't be like this. Or at least as bad.

Quinn looked around. It was quite obvious that this wasn't the New York he knew and loved. "Well mates, what's on our agenda besides getting some cash and finding a place to crash?"

"Can you teleport us out away from the city some? We'll have less cover when they show up, but we also don't want to risk anyone getting hurt in the crossfire. Much as I'd like to try and catch the Angel's attention... whom I suspect is Warren, I think the others might have a better chance, if we can keep the heat off of them."

"No problem. And I've had the same suspicions."

Really, Blink was secretly hoping to run into then Angel and find out if this world's version of her was still alive. And even if she wasn't, Cal deserved to know. If she could send a message back, or at least tell someone to, then at least he could have some closure.

But she didn't want to put her teammates in jeopardy.

"Thanks." Sarah replies on reaching their destination. "Keep your eyes open, some versions of sentinels can actually be pretty sneaky, though most are still the giant monstrosities as far as I can tell. I take it you have a lot of history with them too?"

"I spent the past year trying to keep out of their sensors. Even with teleportation it hasn't been easy. I lost some kids to those damn things."

"I'm sorry to hear it. The friends who came to Earth from Battleworld and I fought a guerilla war against them for a year. We didn't lose anyone, but we had some close calls. And most of the other heroes of Earth were lost to them by the time we got there."

"Sounds similar. There were no heroes on that world. They were all executed or imprisoned."

"Yeah, my world was similar that way. Except that the takeover by the sentinels' creators was well after our parents and the others were taken to Battleworld. So had they returned, as they apparently did in most worlds, it might have made a difference. Pretty much all the heroes who were left behind died either in the Limbo-demonic wars, the Apocalypse revolution or when the sentinels were greenlighted in response to Apocalypse."

Blink's body tensed. "Apocalypse. Was he still in power when you got there?"

"Yes and no. He was defeated and driven out of America with his horsemen over a decade before we came to Earth. But he's created his own little empire in Africa and no one has been able to remove him. But as long as he wasn't aggressive, no one seemed to be trying very hard either."

"In the world I was born he was in control of the Americas. We were fighting him when I became unhinged from time."

"That's a frightening thought. We'd occasionally hear rumors of the atrocities in Egypt and Africa, but America was bad enough, and a lot to deal with as it was. I can't imagine what kind of nightmare he'd have made with that kind of dominance."

"When you get back, if you're at all able, you need to overthrow him as soon as possible. He killed nearly all of the human population. The mutants he didn't kill he either chose to to fight under him or sent to the breeding pens. If Dark Beast didn't kill you with his 'experiments' then the work would."

"I'd love to, but with just the five of us, and already struggling with a guerilla war, I'm not sure what we could do about overthrowing Apocalypse. We didn't have any kind of army or unified force, or even allies. The Fantastic Four are out there somewhere, mostly behind the shield. Most of the other survivors may have fled to England, or that may just be rumor."

Blink nodded. "You have enough on your hands. Remind me to brief you on what I know about Apocalypse later because I promise you he will be a threat."

"Definitely. I studied the X-Men's files and all, but you probably saw more of him than the X-Men of my world that had come to Battleworld. Good to know everything we can. When you do that, I'll see what and who you've encountered, and see where I might be able to return the favor."
