But hold on, this appears to be happening when Apocalypse and his horsemen have assembled - the rocky location is the same - which probably means Charles is captured by the villains and taken as a prisoner. Perhaps they need his powers to achieve their extinction plan? That X-2 parallel would certainly fit the film. Or, like in Days Of Future Past, it could be a projected vision?

Regardless, Magneto's having none of what Charles is pleading, with Fassbender giving a glare and proclaiming, "Whatever you think you saw in me, I buried it with my family." Wait, what?!
