After going through yet another explanation of the Avengers plan, but this time with the South Korean representative and Magneto, the South Korean representative instantly agreed with everything.
She was even more excited about it than the UK representative was yesterday. It seems that the demonstration of meta-human powers from today's UN meeting was really helping Peter's cause.
He now had the United States of America, the United Kingdom, and South Korea backing the Avengers Initiative.
Seeing as every country was delighted to get involved with the Avengers now, Peter told the president and the UN representatives to get a meeting with China, France, and the United Arab Emirates all together tomorrow.
If they all agreed, then Peter would have enough backing to bring the Avengers plan to the rest of the UN and 100% get their agreement. They didn't plan to be as secretive as Shield after all.
These secretive meetings are only to make sure it gets passed when that time came along. Peter was tired of meetings and just wanted to get the ball rolling on building the Avengers, which would happen soon.
With Starks money and Shields intel, it wouldn't take long for the Avengers to become a real thing.
Little does Peter know that as a member of the future Avengers council, meetings like these will be a fairly regular occurrence for him.
When the South Korean representative left the room with everyone else, leaving Peter and Magneto behind, Erik turned to Peter with a thoughtful look
"You want me to become a part of this Avengers Organization?" Magneto asks unsure of himself.
"Yes, and I'd like to get Charles involved too." Peter replies with a nod.
"This hero business is something that Charles would definitely go for. Me, on the other hand, not so much." Erik says with a shake of his head. "All I care for is the safety and well-being of my people. That's it."
"Haha, and you think that doesn't make you a hero?" Peter laughs at Magneto's way of thinking. "You rant about how you want to save meta-humans and keep them safe from harm. What do you think that makes you to them?"
"Their leader..." Erik replies with a thoughtful look.
"A leader can be a hero as well. In fact, they happen to make the best leaders in my opinion." Peter comments matter of factly. "I plan for the Avengers to be a group of the strongest people on this planet. We would keep the peace and handle any situation that calls for our assistance. Are you telling me that, as a leader of meta-humans, you don't want your people to be a part of this?"
"Fine, I'll join but I want a seat on the Council you spoke of earlier." Erik agreed but gives a stipulation as well.
"I'll have to speak about this to the other soon-to-be councilmen, but I agree so they should be amenable to the idea." Peter answers with a shrug.
Although he's been the one spearheading this whole project since Fury brought it to them, Peter isn't the one in charge. The Avengers Council would be working as a group to come to every important decision, and this happens to be one of those decisions.
Peter wasn't worried about Erik taking such a high position. He already planned to offer a similar position to Professor Xavier, and if he wants Magneto to join as well, the man wouldn't take anything less than being on the same level as his old friend/nemesis.
"Alright, here take this." Erik nods understandingly as he writes down his phone number. "Call me when everyone has come to a decision."
"Alright, I'll have an answer for you in a couple of days." Peter says as he accepts the number.
"I expect that you're going to offer Charles a council position as well?" Magneto asks.
"Yes, he was here for a similar meeting yesterday. Though he hasn't given me an answer and ran away today before I could speak about it." Peter says in mock annoyance.
After finishing their meeting, Peter walked Erik out of the building, but before he could fly away as he came, one of the workers from the UN building walked toward them.
It was a balding middle-aged man in a sh*tty tan suit, which didn't seem to be the right size. He was an assistant that would do grunt work during meetings. Fetching supplies, refreshments, and the like.
As he gets closer to them, his demeanor and walk suddenly changes from a modest conservative man to the swinging hips of a confident woman.
Instantly, a smile graced Erik's lips as he sees this change happen, realizing exactly who this is.
After the person's walk changed, scale-like movement shuddered along their skin and clothing, as their entire being morphed into a beautiful naked blue-skinned woman with orange-red hair and yellow eyes, similar to Nightcrawler.

"Raven, as ravishing as ever." Erik says as he leans forward and pecks her on the cheek.
"Erik, It seems our cause is changing." Raven says with a smile. "Though I like the way things are headed now."
"Of course, you do." Magnetic says with a laugh. "You just want to spend time with Charles again. As for our cause, It's always been the same. The only thing that's changing is the plan."
"I guess you're right..."
