When the government and I.M.C find out Wolverine has been hiding Captain America they arrest Wolverine and start testing on Captain America. Soon I.M.C relieves the X-Men of their duties and mutants go back into hiding and soon Eric Lensherr and Mystique come back to New York. Eventually heroes that aren't mutants start fighting for mutant rights and a couple mutant heroes including Blizzard, Beast, Gambit, and a non-mutant Spider-Man start a team called X-Force to save the X-Men. Once they get into the Raft Gambit and Spider-Man take out the guards while Beast and Blizzard get to the cells but while freeing the X-Men accidentally free every villain in there. The movie ends with the X-Men and the X-Force uniting to stop all the villains while Eric Lensherr starts leading them. Scott Summers and Eric Lensherr have a final battle where Scott hits Eric in the chest with his beams making Eric lose control of the sentinels he was controlling. The movie closes with the heroes putting the villains back in prison and the government letting the X-Men free since they saved the city meanwhile Eric and Mystique disappeared once again. In the credits scene we see a man in ancient Egyptian armor getting ready for a journey to the edge of the universe to gather materials to craft an axe that can take him to the God Eternity.
