Y/N Romanoff is the son of one Elise Storm and Victor Creed. After his birth, he was taken away and experimented on by a group simply known as the Ten Rings. He managed to escape with the help of the Creator before his death at the hands of AIM and Taskmaster.

Monster and his team, the Strikers, were told that Burns was actually the center of the universe. Damon Hellstrom showed them a doorway to another world which Monster, Dagger, and Ghost Rider stepped through. However, by doing so, three unknown figures appeared in their place.

Emma Frost, Warren Worthington, and.....Laura?!

Strikers: Scarlet Witch, Cloak, Wolverine, Sabertooth

X-Men: X-23, White Queen, Angel

SHIELD: Mockingbird

Monster:
Strikers

Wanda looked at the three people sitting on the couch back at the Manor. She knew their faces, but these weren't the same people. It didn't make sense.

Tyrone: So, what are we going to do with them? We can't have two Lauras running around.

Laura: I agree. I mean, look at her.

The trio looked over at their uninvited guests.

Emma.

Warren.

And....another Laura.

Wanda: If I had to guess, I would say this is because of the doorway. But their energy doesn't fit with our world.

Tyrone raised a brow.

Tyrone: So they're from another world?

Meanwhile, the three displaced X-Men watched the Strikers over their shoulders.

Warren: This is weird. I mean, why are there two of you?

Laura: I have no idea. I don't think I have any other clones running around.

Emma looked at Tyrone and tried to get into his head, but she only saw darkness. Wanda's wasn't accessible. This other Laura just looked around confused when she felt her mind shift.

Wanda: What is it?

Laura shrugged.

Laura: Probably just a headache. This is all....weird.

Wanda had to agree. You, Tandy, and Robbie were missing. Damon was god knows where. They were on their own.

Wanda: I think we should talk to them. Perhaps they know something we don't?

Her friends nodded in agreement. The X-Men watched as they walked over and took their seat across from them. Things were immediately tense with the situation.

Wanda: Now, can we get you anything? Some water? I can make some tea.

Emma: We're good.

So she was snappy.

Lauras: So...

The two stopped and looked at each other. Tyrone made a mental note to call this Laura Laura and the other one....something else. He'll think of something.

Wanda: Well, perhaps we should start by introducing ourselves. I am Wanda Maximoff.

Warren: Are you? You look....different.

Wanda nodded.

Wanda: I am sure you know another Wanda. Perhaps from your world. I am merely a copy of this world's Scarlet Witch.

Laura: I'm Laura. But....you guys probably know that.

Tyrone: My name is Tyrone. Cloak on the field.

Emma: Emma Frost. The White Queen.

Warren: Warren. Angel.

Laura: Laura. X-23.

Laura looked at her with a raised brow.

Laura: You kept your assigned name? Why?

X-23 shrugged.

X-23: I couldn't think of another one. Doesn't matter. I embrace my past. At least, I'm trying to. My....boyfriend is helping me.

Wanda: Oh? And does this boy have a name?

X-23 looked at her suspiciously. In truth, Wanda was trying to get a better grasp of what kind of world they came from. Perhaps it was someone they knew.

X-23: Tag. His name is Y/N.

Tyrone: Funny. We know a Y/N, too. He's our leader. But his code name is Monster.

Wanda pulled out her phone and showed them a picture of you bending a spoon. Their eyes went wide.

Emma: Oh my God. There's two of them.

X-23: That's him.

Laura raised a brow at the notion of dating you. You must be extremely charming in this other world.

Warren: Ha! He's as much of a dork as our Y/N is.

Nope.

Wanda: So, I suppose it is reasonable to assume that you three are apart of your world's X-Men. What about the Avengers?

The three looked at her confused.

Emma: The who?

Tyrone: Avengers. Earth's Mightest Heroes.

The three just shook their heads. So the Avengers don't exist in that world. That was something to take note of.

Suddenly, the front door opened and Wanda watched as Victor and Bobbi walked in with bags of groceries. They walked over and Victor spotted the three guests.

Victor: God damnit. Did my son drag more people into this?

The three X-Men suddenly shot up at the sound of his voice. They were suddenly ready for a fight while Victor stood there confused. He looked past them at Wanda and the others.

Victor: What's this?

Emma: So, you guys work with Sabertooth.

Victor groaned at his name and set his bags down.

Bobbi: Okay. Let's just calm down here. No fighting inside. Take that shit out in the snow.

Tyrone suddenly appeared in front of Victor while Wanda and Laura stood up.

Wanda: No fight is allowed here. Victor is our mentor. And Y/N's father.

Victor: Is that really my title?

X-23 and Emma turned around in surpised before they looked back at Victor.

Emma: What? Y/N's dad is....no. That's not possible.

Wanda: Not in your world, perhaps. But in this one, Victor has left behind his Savage ways.

Laura: He's actually not that bad once you get past his awful smell.

Victor was going to retort before he lifted his arm and took a sniff. He thought about it before he shrugged.

Bobbi: I think he smells fine. Leave him alone.

Victor: I don't need back up. Look, whatever this is, stop it. Where's my son, by the way?

Tyrone: Trapped in another world, apparently.

Victor sighed.

Victor: Of course he is.

He just grabbed his bag and headed towards the kitchen. Bobbi followed but stopped and turned around.

Bobbi: No fighting!

She then dissapered with Victor. The X-Men calmed down a bit before Tyrone walked over to them.

Tyrone: Won't matter anyway. There'd be no way you could beat him. Trust me. We've been trying for weeks now.

Wanda: Now, I believe we have our objective here.

Everyone turned to her as she lifted her hand, casting a spell.

Wanda: We must bring our friends back and return these people to their world. After that, we'll work to find out how to close the doorway.

Victor suddenly came back into the room in a rush.

Victor: Did you say a doorway?!

Everyone nodded.

Victor: God damnit. Let me guess. Damon?

The Strikers nodded while the other three had no idea what he was talking about.

Victor: Shit.

Emma: I'm guessing that's a bad thing?

Laura: I dunno. We never had one before.

Victor rubbed his temples as he groaned.

Victor: Of course he didn't explain this to you kids. Why would he?

He sighed and turned to the Strikers.

Victor: The doorways are access points across time and space itself. They open when there's a problem. And they don't close until the problem is fixed.

Tyrone: So what's the problem?

Victor: I don't know. That's for you kids to find out. Fix it, leave these kids there, and bring back my son. Or leave him there. Whatever is easier.

The six heroes looked at each other.
--------------
Emma: So, this doorway will take us back to our world?

The group was back at the doorway, but they were at a lost. Laura tried to walk through it, but nothing happened.

Wanda: It's supposed to.

Warren: Well, it isn't. What do we do?

Tyrone rubbed his chain.

Tyrone: Maybe I can open a portal?

Wanda considered it before she nodded. She lifted a hand and went throigh the motions before Tyrone found himself surrounded by scarlet magic.

Wanda: This magic should allow us to find Y/N.

X-23: Ours or yours?

Wanda stood there for a moment before she shrugged.

Wanda: I suppose it doesn't matter. But my bond to Y/N is that of master and servant.

Emma raised a brow.

Emma: Servant?

Wanda: He did create me.

Warren: Honestly, sounds like something he would do.

X-23: It does.

Laura looked at her double and sighed. She was seriously dating you in another world?

Tyrone opened his cloak and Wanda walked towards it. She stopped and smirked when she saw the X-Men were standing there confused.

Wanda: No need to be afraid. It's just the dark.

She laughed as she stepped through. Laura followed before the X-Men hesitated.

X-23: Please don't let this be how I die.

She walked forward and entered the cloak. Emma shook her head and followed before Warren flew through. Tyrone collapsed into himself and reappeared with the others. They looked around for a moment. Everything was so alive. Wasn't it fall? Or was it winter?

Emma: We're back at the mansion grounds.

Warren flew up as the others watched. He scanned the area before he spotted the school.

Warren: We're back!

He flew back down and landed beside Emma who crossed her arms.

Emma: Did you see the others?

Warren shook his head.

Warren: But I did see the Blackbird. I think Betsy and Rachel are back.

Tyrone: Betsy? Rachel? More X-Men?

Warren shrugged.

Warren: Kinda. They're with X-Force.

The Strikers looked at them with unamused faces.

Tyrone: X-Force?

Laura: That sounds kinda....lame.

The X-Men all sighed.

Emma: I know.

Warren: We didn't pick the name.

The group all decided to head forward to the mansion. After all, they had a mystery to solve.

Again.

Wanda: I almost wish I stayed at the Program.
