"As a matter of fact, I do, thank you" Eric nodded, "Keep up the good work"

"Common Luke" Charles called, "we should get going"

Luke crawled off the bed, "I'm glad they made you feel better." He smiled widely, "Bye Mr. Magneto. Get better soon!" He ran off and took Charles' hand.

"Goodbye Luke" Eric waved, watching them go.

Ciara walked in a few mins later, "I think I may have found a solution to your problem but it's gonna take a couple of days."

"That's alright" Eric replied, "There are a few things I need to wrap up around here first... I still haven't told Scott."

"Yeah... Have fun with that."

"Absolutely not. You can take some time away but you are NOT moving off of this island." Scott said.

"I don't see this being your decision to make" Eric replied, raising a brow, "I built this island, I rule this island, I can leave this island. It is a courtesy to inform you of it."

"Eric. You don't realize the backlash this'll make." Scott was ruffling his hair just thinking about it. "Why do you think no one has really tried attacking us? Maybe because you were here. Emma please. Talk to the man."

"Perhaps I should have brought my helmet" Eric frowned, giving Emma a look before addressing Scott again, "Mystique can pretend to be me if need be. It isn't as though I can do anything that she can't anymore. Polarus can fill in that gap to an extent. No one has to know if that's how you want it but I am leaving." he paused, looking out the window upon the city, "... this isn't my home anymore..."

"There won't be a home if it weren't for you. Eric really, rethink this coarse of action."

"I have thought about it Scott" Eric replied, "Long and hard. I've decided. If I am ever going to give homo sapiens a chance, it has to be on their land. Otherwise it's meaningless, all the ones that are here look at me with fear and shuffle in the other direction. As much as I approve of this, it does not prove to me that they are anything other than sheep to be herded and killed as the masters see fit." he stepped forward, coming straight face to face with Scott, "I'm warning you now however, if humanity has not shown me otherwise by the time I am finished with my search, Genosha will become a very different place from what you have made it."

~Over my and Ciara's dead bodies.~ He thought to himself. He sighed, "Fine. FINE. But you have to check in regularly and have a GPS on you at all times. Powers or none, if one of our enemies got a hold of you, the people of this island would not hesitate to become lambs to the slather."

Eric crossed his arms and stood at his full height, which was surprisingly enough taller than Scott-he was one of the few people around there that could make Summers feel small, particularly when he used that Magneto voice. Stuff of nightmares, that's what the Magneto voice was made from, "I am without mutant ability, not powerless. I am still the ruler of this island, despite what liberties I have allotted to you and your x-men, thus you will speak to me with more respect young man. You've grown bossy and arrogant in your older years and I don't care for your tone." he stepped forward again, leaning forward and forcing Scott to back off a little or have Eric's breath in his face. The ex-master of magnetism had a fire in his eyes, "If you recall, the last time you spoke to me with such potent gall, I sent you flying into the desert in a metal tomb without your precious little visor." he continued to advance mercilessly, "Being a leader is tough, so what? Deal with it, for it is you who chose to rise to the occasion. Just because you're feeling insecure about your responsibilities does not mean you have the right to boss everyone around. I can handle myself, I have many resources beyond my lost abilities, and if you think for one moment that I would do anything to jeopardize the safety of the mutants here-who are under my protection as much as yours-then you have another thing coming. I will not check in with you, I will not carry a GPS, however, if you wish to request something of me, rather than your deplorable demands, you may speak to Sabertooth. He knows how to get in touch with me, and at least he knows his place" Eric sneered before finally backing off.

Scott gulped and coughed, "Right. You have a valid point Sir. I... I only meant it might," He rubbed the back of his head, "... For Ciara's sake, keep in touch, if you would so kindly. You know how she gets when she's worried." Scott, the powerful man, the leader of the pack.... reduced to a some pup. "I didn't mean to disrespect you. I'm...I'm sorry."

Eric seemed to calm somewhat at the change in Scott's attitude, "I have no intention to leave my family without words. I have grandchildren to check up on for goodness sake. I just said I wan't going to check in with you" he placed a hand on Scott's shoulder, "Not if you're going to be a dick about it. I realize that it is difficult, to have so many relying on the shoulders of one, but the moment you let that get to you is the moment you let them down."

"Understood. I'll ask Ciara to keep me updated then."

Eric nodded, turning to leave as he spoke with his back to Scott, "Take a break Scott. You're wound up. Enjoy some of Ms. Frost's... finer attributes. It could do you some good."

"No complaints here" Emma smirked.

Scott put on his grumpy face, turned and took hold of Emma's hand, "He's right... Let's do this. >//<"

Ciara looked at her watch as she finished drawing what looked like a complicated circle of some kind. "Papa. It's almost time." She called, pushing the last bit of furniture out of the way.

((Lawl))

"I'm here, what do I do?" Eric asked, a bit uncertain about this.

Candles were lit all around the room and the curtains on the window were closed tightly
"Hm? Oh, close the door and just stand back by the play pen." 3 little adorable children sat, watching and giggling, " I don't know how intense this'll get." Ciara cleared her throat and recited the words she'd been told to speak. Wind began to form around the circle. It was quite the light show.

"...Upon the fabric of space, I open thee oh gate of endless wonder. Come forth and be welcomed." She clapped her hands together and slammed them down on the side of the circle, "Come forth and be welcomed!" She yelled above the sound of the wind. A gate appeared and swung open and a great flash of light filled the room. And in it's place was a man, hovering above the floor, his yellow cape bellowing behind him.

"Hmm... Not bad for a novice." He commented, setting down.

Ciara went forth and shook his hand, "I can't believe it actually worked."
"I have always told your father you have a rare unique aura about you, now more than ever am I certain of it." He looked Ciara over, "My how you've grown. Seems only yesterday you were barely up to my knee, hiding behind a trash can in the middle east."
"Yeah... that wasn't a fun experience and you didn't help by floating over."
"It's natural for me to float and you threw a rock at me."
"I was scared!"

Eric stood back, watching with curiosity for a moment before stepping forward, "Greetings..."

Doctor Strange turned, "Ah. So it is for your Papa you requested my aid."

"Yes but he's-" Doctor Strange put a finger up to hush Ciara. He approached Eric and looked him over.

"I see... You wish to change your ways but to do this you must become a new person... Is this true?"

"That is correct" Eric replied, standing tall, "I'm curious to see what the human race has to offer."

"Hmmm..." He rubbed his bread, "Your words come from the heart. Very well." He clapped his hands and from within his palms an amulet appeared. "So long as you wear this amulet, all those but those present will see you as a different man." He placed it around Eric's neck, "If you wish someone to see you as your true self they must touch the amulet and say Reveal thy true form."

"Thank you Doctor Strange." Ciara said holding a large army bag by the play pen

"Ah. My payment." He turned, "Genosha has quite a selection rare items in its magic shops... Oh, and here they are...Let's have a look at you three." He waved his hand and each baby hovered in the air.

Eric looked at the amulet, "Hm... seems simple enough." he commented, looking over to the babies. As Dr. Strange made them hover, there was a slight ache in Eric's chest. He used to fly Ciara around as a child like that, Pietro on occasion to, Wanda never much cared for it though. He'd never had much of a chance to do it with these three now, he'd already spent most of the time away building a device that would've killed them and now he was powerless.
He'd never fly himself again either, ever.
"Thank you Doctor Strange" Eric stated before turning to leave the room.
