He'd arrived on earth from the Mojo World about six months ago and Cable had found him. Ben fell in with Cable's plans to stop the various threats against mutants. They'd faced things that tested every one of his limits for nearly the entire time he'd been here. They were always victorious and managed to survive without any deaths, a lot of broken bones, bleeding, burns and pain but they still got to eat spam in the morning. And afternoon too, Spam was cheap.<br/><br/>Yesterday, Cable says that he's going back in time to the future. Ben had some interesting mental acrobatics to go through to make sense of that statement. It didn't matter, he was being abandoned. He'd watched enough TV to realize that Cable should have said 'but you'll never notice because I'll come back a second after I leave' ...although he didn't. Cable gave orders, he didn't make conversation. This was a good bye. And that was that. He was gone.<br/><br/>Going through some of the computer files before the virus Cable set in place wiped everything Ben read up on the XMen and Charles Xavier. It had an address. So here he was. It was not a military base or bunker. It was a house..big house...mansion...school...schoolmansion...<br/><br/>Mutants were flying, running real fast, propelling themselves with fire or ice and otherwise showing off their abilities as he walked up the steps. They all eyed his swords and otherwise gave him wide berth. He was a stranger in this world. He was used to this. Even Cable only learned enough about him to figure out he'd be useful in a fight and then the hours of training every day.<br/><br/>The front door was open and he wandered in. The Vice Principal of the schoolmansion was going to sort him into a lot. Mojo did that too. You got sorted into a lot and sold to one of the other houses when your house was destroyed or he killed the leaders for plotting against him. Ben didn't want to be sold.<br/><br/>Maybe it meant something different here. Ben glanced around at the people who looked like they actually belonged instead of the people who were being herded. He felt he could take them or deal with them well enough if they wanted to stop him from leaving should this be something he wasn't going to enjoy.<br/><br/>The starburst over his eye glowed as he scanned his surroundings. He was still awkward around people. All he'd done since he got here was watch TV while he healed, trained until he fell or fought Sentinels, Humanity's Last Stand, Purifiers, Reavers, Apocalypse, the Acolytes and the Hellfire club. Cable wanted to fight the Brotherhood but then had to leave.<br/><br/>He looked around as he moved to the room the vice principal McCoy brought them to. There were all kinds of interesting looking people here. A lot of them wore sunglasses. Maybe that was a mutant thing to do? "<strong>I really hope they aren't selling us. This place looks nice. It may even have beds and working toilets.</strong>"
