Baxter Building into the school and began hiring, one of the first interviews was with a woman named Darla Deering, and she impressed the team and seemed to get along well with Ben, so they decided to hire her, once the teachers had been hired, they began letting kids enroll in the school, a couple of months go by and the school was up and running, they had gained quite a few students and their best student, Franklin, was advancing with his powers very quickly, after one of Darla’s classes, Ben knocked on her door and she gestured for him to come in, after a bit of small talk, Ben asks if she would like to get lunch with him, she smiles at him and agrees, he grabs his trench coat and a big hat so he wouldn’t be recognised and they headed down to grab a burrito from a food stand, they had a nice date and headed back to work, Ben walked Darla back to her classroom and as he turned around to walk out, Darla grabbed his hand and kissed him on the cheek, she looked at him, smiled and told him that she would see him tomorrow, at the end of the day, most of the students had done home, Franklin was still here, talking to Vision about controlling his powers, when suddenly a blue portal appeared in the middle of the room, a woman in a yellow suit stepped out and Franklin immediately attacked her, Vision tried to intervene, but Franklin pushed him away, the noise attracted the team to the room, where they saw Franklin fighting the woman, they all helped Franklin fight her, and when she realised she was outnumbered, she summoned another portable and escaped, once the woman was gone, Visio got up and told Franklin to explain himself, Franklin looked around the room as everyone was staring at him, he let out a sigh and told them that he was from the future and his name was Franklin Richards, Reed and Sue’s son, Reed told Franklin that it was dangerous for him to be here, Franklin explained that he came back to protect them, Reed asked why they needed protecting, Franklin told him that the woman that just attacked was called Ravonna Renslayer and she worked alongside a tyrant named Kang the Conqueror, and when Franklin is from, Kang rules the world, so when he found an old blueprint of a Time Machine in the Baxter Building, he took the opportunity to come back and change the future, Sue asks him when Kang was going to attack, Franklin told her that he attacked twice, once in a couple years, and the other in a couple days, he tells them that if they defeat him today, The Fantastic Four can help during his second attack, Reed asks why they didn’t help originally, Franklin looks down and stops talking, Reed demands that he tells them, so Franklin tells Reed that Kang kills Reed in a couple of days, which causes Sue to go into hiding to protect the baby, after hearing this Reed begins to think about what he can do to change the outcome, eventually Ben suggests that he does something that Kang would never expect, the next day the team, joined by Franklin get on a plane and travel to a place called Latveria, when the team get there, they head towards the big castle in the middle of the city, they approach a guard and tell him that they need to see the king, the guard asks for their names and Reed tells him who they are, after a few minutes, the guard lets them through and leads them to a dining hall, Victor Von Doom sits at the end of the table, he tells them to take a seat, and asks why they came here, Reed t said that they needed his help, Franklin explains the situation to Doom and he thinks about it for a moment, eventually

attacks, Ben decides to spend the day with Darla, while the others work on a plan, the next day the team wait for Kang’s arrival, after a few hours two blue portals appear in the middle of the room,

tries, it will never work, Kang reaches behind his back and pulls out a futuristic looking gun and begins shooting at them, Sue forms a force field around them, but eventually the gun starts to get through the field, Vision attempts to exit the bubble and attack Kang, but as he phased through him, Kang immediately turned around and grabbed vision by the head, he smashed him into the ground and began ripping him apart, he held Visions head in his hands, showing it to The Fantastic Four, he dropped on onto the ground and rolled towards the other ripped up body parts, he walked over to the force field and began punching it, slowly working his way towards them, he finally got through and started attacking Reed, Sue and Ben began to protect him, while Franklin and Doom fought Ravonna, eventually Kang managed to get through Sue and Ben and began fighting Reed solo, eventually, Kang managed to get the upper hand on Reed and shot him in the chest, Franklin looked over and fired a bolt of energy towards Kang, knocking him off, Kang began laughing as he got up, telling mocking Franklin about how he couldn’t change his past, Franklin began charging at him, but just before he reached him, Kang summoned a portal and disappeared, leaving Ravonna behind, Doom grabbed her and demanded that she tell them where he is, but Ravonna told them that she would never betray him, Doom tried convincing her that Kang just betrayed her, so why still stick up for him, Ravonna tells them that they will be reunited in his new timeline, angry that she wouldn’t cooperate, Doom picked her up and shot her in the stomach, killing her, Doom walks over to Reed and kneels next to him, he apologises for not being able to save him, but tells him that when Kang attacks again, he will stand alongside

telling her that he loved her, Sue begins to cry as she holds her dying husband in her arms, Doom walked over to Franklin, who was kneeling down where Kang disappeared, he sat next to him and told
