day in night out (open)

[cable]

cable walked in to the bar his large coat buttoned up. he was not cold but people in this time looked at you funny, when they saw the huge mans robotic arm. He had just set up a new safe house in new york so he could track the x men. He sat down at the bar and ordered a drink. he was glad of his power no one could see the glow from his eye because he did not want them to.

He sipped his drink and let his mind wonder from person to listening to the surface thoughts. While he was powerful enough to read more and most would not even know that he had been in there mind. The chance was still there. he had arrived five years two early. he was meant to of come back the day his infant self left for the year 4015 but some thing had gone wrong. he had no clue what to do. it would take time but he was going to change the world.

[sara2]

Korus walked into the bar and sat down at his usual table.
He came here every few days for a drink or two and see
what he could hear. He nodded to the bar tender knowing
by now that he would know what he wanted. He drank Bud
Light and on the rare occasion rum and coke. As his drink
arrived he began going over everything he had to do
tomorrow. He had a class in the Danger Room in the
morning with the new students to help teach them how
to work as a team. Man it wasn't going to be easy. Especially
when most the kids just learned they had powers and where
scare or confused. There was so much to teach them.

About half way through his bud light he felt a kind of
presence in his mind. He froze knowing there was a
mutant in the room that could read thoughts. He acted
like normal and took another sip as he searched the
room with a flick of his eyes. Korus's eyes rested on a
man dressed in a large coat. There was something
about him that made his gaze linger a bit longer. Was
he the mutant that tried to read his mind?

[cable]

A man walked up to Cable noticed some one had sensed his probing. quickly he Entered some one else mind and guided them to look at the man. He was from what he knew linked to the x men. well that's what the history book said. he thought better than to talk to him after all he was not ready to meet them just yet. Would would he say to Cyclopes? he thought for a moment and could not place who kid was at all. Oh well probably some one who died early on in the war or left. He got up and bumped in to a man spilling his drink

"Hey you owe me a drink!" the man snapped at cable. Cable had no time for this and started to walk out of the bar. the man placed his hand on cable and pulled him round. "I want my dink." the man threw a punch at cable chest. The Drunk man screamed in pain as all he hut was metal. Cable cleared his throat."Friend i think you had enough. go home and sleep it off then go to the doctors you had a nasty fall and broken your hand."

The man nodded and walked off nursing his sore hand. Cables words had not been enough to stop any one from there path but it was not just words. The man had thought what cable had told him to think. slowly he went to the door. Some of the man's friends had gotten up. "hey big man, your one of those mutants? its the only way you could of done that." cable took a deep breath and looked around. he could easily make them all forget this but why should he? after all he was trained to deal with this sort of thing.

People were getting nervous about the upcoming fight. NO sent in top there minds and the just sat down. he opened the door and walked out in to the fresh air.

[sara2]

As soon as Korus looked at the man in the coat the feeling
of someone in his mind disappeared. He began to wonder
if he had imagined it or if the man scared he had noticed
quit before giving himself away. He went back to his drink
but he couldn't get out of his mind that the man in the coat
was different and he didn't belong there. Who was he?
One of the Brotherhood? One of Apocalypse's men? He
didn't now but he would find out. Out of the corner of his
eye he spotted the man stand up and head for the door.
As he bumped into another man and spilled his drink
Korus knew something would happen and waited to see
if the man could handle himself. but was ready to lend a
hand if needed by using his knock out gas.

But it wasn't needed the man proved himself a mutant by
controlling the man's aggression with out harming him or
the drunk. Than again when his friends accused him of
being a mutant. Standing up he slowly fallowed the man
out the door being careful to stay far enough behind as to
keep unnoticed if he was lucky. Korus was bound and
determined to find out who he was, who he worked for
and where he was going.

[cable]

Cable could of just slipped away vanished but, he had a plan and he was dammed if he was going to waste. "you know your following skills are bad to say the least. Don't worry i am not reading your mind. i saw you tracking me in that window over there." he let his Telepathic illusion drop showing the man his glowing eye. he walked down an ally he was tempted to use his powers but saw no point in it. he was interested and that would get the better of him. He sat down on a box and waited for the man to follow. " so which one are you working with?"

[sara2]

Korus shook his head and smiled, "I guess I'll need to work
on it some more. I never was any good at stealth." When the
man let him see his red eye he stepped back and sucked in
a breath. What was he? Was he even human? Slowly he
moved forward and sat down. "That was just what I was
gonna ask you. I have never seen you with magneto and I
know your not an X-Men so there was only one you
could be in my opinion but that doesn't fit you either. But
maybe i am wrong and you do work for apocalypse." Korus
waited to see what his reaction would be. How would he react
to him thinking he was with Apocalypse. Would he admit that he
was right? Or would he get angry for even thinking he could worth
with a man like that. Heck he didn't even think Apocalypse was
a man.

[cable]

cable sorted. "the last man who said i was working for him i killed. In fact i am here because of Apocalypse but i am here to kill him. " the glare in his eyes was clear. " Let's just say i am on my own. It simple and less confusing for you to understand. I am a friend and that's all you need to know." he looked the man over trying to place him with the history books. "beside practicing stealth when your prey is a telepathic is not the best option. they probably know you are coming"

[sara2]

Korus sighed what a way to make an enemy. Accusing them
of being something there not. "Sorry no offense. Well I'm glad
to hear your a friend and not an enemy. I rally hate to fight unless
it's needed. I'm Josiah but those who know me call me Korus." He
held his hand out and waited for the stranger to introduce himself.
Who ever he was he seemed to know what he was talking about.
"I'll keep that in mind for the future. Speaking of the future who are
you aligned with?" Would he get an answer from him?

[cable]

"people call me Cable." he laughed at the comment of the future. "lets just say i am Aligned with the world. You should learn to fight things are turning violent and we all will have to fight. Its the choice our father have made for us. Xavier, Magneto and cyclopes they all made the choice for the world and its the choice of war. the first steps have started. The race for weapons but for once its not guns its mutants and others with powers. We can change the world but we have to win the war first." he folded his arms and watched how the man reacted.

[sara2]

Korus listened closely what did he mean Xavior, cyclops
and magneto made a choice for war? Prof. Xavier only
wanted humans and mutants to work and live together.
He would never want a war. Magneto he knew would
stop at nothing until mutants ruled the humans and
would be safe from the attacks of humans. With a sigh
he rubbed the back of his chin as he thought of everything
this man named Cable said. "If what you say and there is
a war coming you may be right about me learning to fight.
But I am sure my powers would be able to help me
prevent having to fight. And I could still help with out
having to fight." It was true he could knock out his opponent
with one of his potions or make them to ill to fight with one
of his poisons. And if needed he could kill with one of his poisons.

[cable]

"that may be the case but what if some one could stop your powers? I could Disrupt your ability to activate your powers. How would you deal with that? Trust me when i say that you need to be able to defend your self." he smiled "what are your powers? " he wondered if the world was ready for what was coming? he would have to do some thing to change that. he stood up and closed his eyes for a moment listening to some people minds. the city was tense the whole mutant thing was getting worse.

[sara2]

Korus wondered if he could trust this mutant named Cable.
He seemed friendly enough like he truly wanted to help him
and the other mutants. But so did Magneto. That didn't make
him good. He watched as cable closed his eyes and seemed t
o concentrate on something. He stayed quiet while he listened
to the thoughts of the humans in the city. Though he did not
know that was what he was doing. Finely tired of waiting he
decided to break the silence. "My powers, what are they? I
have the ability to create several different poisons and potions.
I have four different poisons and two different potions. "Poison
one is a watery like poison that is used to kill plants but it can
make a human or mutant ill if inhaled. Poison two is a smoke
like poison used to make non mutants ill for a few days. Poison
three is a smoke like poison used to make mutants feel
disoriented and dizzy. It's pretty harmless just makes them
unable to fight to well. The effects leave after a couple hours
and than there back to there old pain in the butt selves. Poison
four is my most deadly poison one whiff of thi poison is enough
to kill human and mutant alike. But I hate using it. Than there
are my potions. Potion one is a black smoke like potion used
to knock someone out for several hours. Potion two is a clear
liquid used in drinks to make another have hallucinations."
There let's see what he says to that he though. I can knock him
out in a heartbeat if he try's anything. He doubted he couldn't
block his powers.

[cable]

"just be careful. your a perfect assassin with those powers. Some one will see that and maybe use it to their advantage. You should really ask Xavier to teach you about mental defenses. Combats all well and good if your foe cant make you shit your self with a simple thought. Me i am a combat telepath probably give Xavier a run for his money in that field. " cable worked out how he could stop the man from using his powers it was simple. if the man even tried to gas him he would be ready but he was one of the x men. They did not approve of that sort of thing. "so have you been doing danger room sessions? If so i suggest you do more. they may come in handy." it was a friendly hint that he should be ready for what was coming. the kid was nothing more than that and he hoped he would not have to fight but he knew that this boy would. " tell me are you willing to kill."
