Continued from here part 3

Nation of the plains, Arizona

The transport carrying Doom's crew landed just outside the main living area and were met by several men with guns aimed at them.

Nathan removed his helmet and walked out with his hands up, "We mean no harm, I just need to access something. Despite how I look I am not your enemy."

A man named Edgar stepped up, "You have any medical equipment on that ship?"

Nathan nodded, "Yea, what's the problem?"

***

Moments later they stood over a comatose Bethany Warhorse, "We don't know what happened, she's been like this for months. Every once in a while she wakes up to scream for a while but she always goes right back."

Nathan leaned over and looked into her mind. He turned to Edgar, "Someone has opened her mind to Hell. He sat down beside the bed and attempted to fix the problem."

***

An hour later Bethany sat up and looked to him, "Thank you, it was like a nightmare that wouldn't end."

Nathan rose, "I can't promise you won't be scarred but you can thank me by letting me and my team to access the tunnels under here."

Later the group followed into a hidden location. Nathan turned, "This used to be an X-force hide out, The Nation being here is probably the only reason the Iron army didn't find it."

He opened up the armory as he looked to Bethany, "These weapons were made in a timeline that may or may not exist anymore."

He lifted one of the guns and handed it to Bethany, "An Iron soldiers armor can't stop this, it'd be like trying to stop a shot gun blast with toilet paper. Your people can have all of it in exchange for letting my team use this place as an HQ. I can activate my teleport station here so no one will be able to follow us back."

Bethany handed it to Edgar, "How do they work?"

"Same as a regular gun, but you gotta let it cool down after ten shots, it starts to get hot you throw it at the bad guys and run like hell."

Bethany looks on at the guns and grenades and various other weapons that filled the large room, "If we'd known this was down here, the world would be a lot different for us."

Nathan then walked to a drawer and pulled out six arm bands. He handed one to 7, "I assume you're coming along for the ride?"

7 nodded as did David. He then looked to Agent Walker, "Shield has put you under my command for the time being."

She sighed, "Not a problem, it would've been nice if they told me but her majesty doesn't seem to care much what us little people think anymore."

Nathan nodded, "She did look to be getting pretty comfortable in that throne, but she knows what she's doing."

He then looked to the group, "You activate the teleport by saying body slide, it'll bring you here or to the transport."

7 looked at it, "I can fix that."

The rest stared at him, "Its easy, you just have to move a few...."

David interrupted, "No one here is gonna understand a word of that explanation."

Vadim looked down on David, "You know we may be marching to our death?"

David looked up, "And that makes it different than any other day how? What others call a horrifying near death experience, I call Wednesday. I'm not scarred, well that's not true."

He pointed to Vadim and King Adder, "You two are making me nervous and skull face over there is scarring the hell out of me. What's your name?"

He looked over, "Agony."

"Yeah that doesn't help at all. Can I call you like Sparkles or something less threatening?"

7 shook his head, "David, its time to stop talking now."

"It was time to stop two sentences ago."

Nathan stood and put the helmet back on and turned to Bethany, "If anyone asks who gave you these weapons tell them it was Doom. As far as the world is concerned that's my name."

He then turned back to the team, "From here on out, you are soldiers of Doom. As such you will help me end the reign of the Supreme Commander, this is our only mission. You're free to leave whenever you want but I will not stop until I'm dead or he is. Understood."

The group nodded.

2 am Chicago

Doom stands on a building across from Ferrum HQ. He hits his comm, "Any staff inside?"

David answered back, "Nothing but cleaning units and security drones, you're all clear."

He nodded and held out his hand.

The few people on the street stared in shock as the Jewel of Ferrum corp seemed to collapse in on itself and was condensed into a block as if it had come out of a car crusher. Agent Walker then charged her blades and carved a message into the block as written for her in the language of the Clan Akkaba, known only to Cable and Stryfe currently.

David looked to 7,"Yup, that'll piss him off."
