"I am Magneto, the Master of Magnetism." Ranma could just feel the power overflowing from that floating man and the capitals in what he had said. "And you are dead." With a simple gesture, much like splitting a peeled orange, the two remaining daimons were torn in half. It wasn't the most pleasant sight, but then the remains of the daimons turn to nice little dust piles.
Magneto was unfazed by what happened, and he turned his gaze onto the two children. There was something off about them both, but it was more apparent in the young boy. It would be best if he brought them back with him, they could be mutants just developing their powers or they could be children that had escaped from a lab somewhere or... He sighed to himself, 'Charles' and his views must be rubbing off on me.' Still in thought he decide, 'It doesn't matter. I will bring them if they are willing, leave them if they are not.' His mind made up he turned to address the boy since the girl was unconscious.
Meanwhile, Ranma was also trying to decide what to do. He couldn't return his queen to her original nest, the traitor was there. This stranger had just saved them, but the most important fact to Ranma, was that the queen was still not responding. She could be hurt, how that had happened, Ranma could not be sure. Maybe this powerful stranger was friendly, because if not, his chances of defeating this 'Magneto' was even less than his chances against the daimons.
"Child, are you all right?" At the boy's nod, he turned his attention to the girl lying down behind him. "And the girl, how is She?"
Ranma was relieved when the powerful man seemed to care about the state of his queen. "I don't know, sssshe breathsss but ssshe won't resspond." He was getting better with the spoken language, only in stressful situations did his speech patterns get affected.
Magneto landed and approached Hotaru. Ranma watched him, ready to leap into action if his queen was put in danger by this stranger.
"She seems to have fainted, she should be fine. But it might be prudent for you and her to come with me." seeing the boy nod, he asked the question, "Child, who are you and what has happened to the two of you?"
"I'm Ranma and this," he nodded to the younger girl he was picking up with the same care you did a fragile antique, "is Hotaru Tomoe. Could we go somewhere more private?" Ranma wanted to get his queen somewhere safe and away from the immediate area.
"Very well, I will take us to my home." With that said, Magneto used his powers to lift them up into the sky and off they went to Magneto's home.
