This was a lot easier to write than I expected. :)

The film begins the same way it did before, only this time we see thousands of Apocalypse’s slaves piling the main component to Adamantium into large heating vats (much like the smelting factory from The Desolation Of Smaug) before the transference begins.

In the 80s, Mystique is seen escaping the Weapon X facility, reluctantly leaving her partner behind. Angered by her escape, Stryker sends his troops to find the final ingredient to completing the Adamantium Compound, while his head scientist Dr Rice works on erasing the memory of “Weapon X”.

When Mystique saves Nightcrawler, Angel grabs them, causing him to be teleported with them as well. Raven convinces the two to get along as she tries to get them to Xavier’s School when Caliban tells her about Erik’s family. At the institute, Hank designs new metal wings for Angel alongside Scott’s visor.

The plot with the other characters remains somewhat the same, though this time Apocalypse is awoken by Stryker’s troops mining the Adamantium in his tomb. When Apocalypse awakens, he begins sensing the most powerful mutants to recruit as his Horsemen. He finds Storm and goes to Caliban to find Erik, while also sensing a “lost soul”

After recruiting Erik, Apocalypse takes his Horsemen to Alberta, where Weapon X is hiding after escaping Stryker’s facility with his memories erased. He is completely amnesic, only knowing the names Logan and Wolverine. Apocalypse finds him and grafts the stolen Adamantium onto his skeleton. Wanting a purpose in life, Logan joins as the Horseman of Death.

When Apocalypse armors his Horsemen, he senses a “man with no identity” within Logan, fittingly creating a pointy black mask for Logan to wear with his yellow and black costume.

Caliban and Psylocke travel to the school to find the X-Men after Charles is captured, Apocalypse intending to use him as the fourth Horseman. When Apocalypse enhances his powers, Charles is seemingly seduced by the power and mindlessly joins the group in his trance. Seeing Charles causes Logan to suffer a brief seizure, but Apocalypse sedates him before beginning his plot.

Apocalypse has Magneto transport several famous landmarks to Egypt, planning to build a new pyramid with humanity’s accomplishments. Among them is the Sydney Opera House, the Washington Monument and the Statue Of Liberty. Unknown to Apocalypse, Charles is actually working as a mole, sending their location to Jean.

When the X-Men, including Angel and Psylocke, arrive at Egypt, they are ambushed by the Horsemen. Wolverine fights Nightcrawler and Angel on the Statue Of Liberty, injuring and subduing them both. Before he can kill Kurt, Logan hesitates again, allowing Psylocke to stab him and causing Logan to attack her with his berserker rage. Meanwhile, Quicksilver encounters Magneto alone and reveals that he is his son, before leaving to fight Apocalypse.

Charles attempts to freeze Apocalypse, leading to the “you’re in my house now” scene (though Charles is very much in control here) while Jean tries to stop Magneto (not knowing that he has already stopped). Logan intercepts her, before hesitating. Jean touches the side of his head, distracting him long enough for Scott to blast him off the Statue.

When Apocalypse overcomes Xavier’s control, he decides to kill the “traitor” and absorb his powers. Quicksilver attempts to stop him but is injured like in the film, before Logan arrives and Apocalypse orders him to kill them both. Logan recognizes both Quicksilver and Charles due to Jean restoring his memories and slices Apocalypse’s throat. This has no effect however and Logan is defeated, before Magneto rallies Storm and the others against Apocalypse.

Apocalypse decides to kill Xavier in the mind realm, but Jean intercepts him there, taking the blow for Xavier. Enraged by Jean’s supposed death, Charles attacks Apocalypse mentally, but it defeated and tormented, causing his hair to fall out. Due to Apocalypse’s attack, the Phoenix is awakened within Jean and she rises in the physical world.

Logan, having seen this before, gets everyone else to safety before Jean destroys Apocalypse. With the battle over, the film is mostly the same. When Erik leaves, Logan and the professor talk outside, with Charles offering Logan a job at the school. Logan accepts, requesting that Charles make him a history teacher, while saying this:

Logan: I know a lot more history than you’d think.

Charles: I know, my friend. I know all too well.

Well, that's my idea.
