Exhaling the rich cigarette smell he chuckled as he mentioned Deadpool on face book. "I would never be caught dead on that site. It is filled with people wanting to be friends, but, their ulterior motive is just to rack up the total of friends to portray them as popular. I'm not speaking from personal experience...merely intel I gathered. Mystique will definetly be a wild card, that much is given seeing how her personality is often distrustful. I see you got your eyes on this Adam guy. What's so special about him?" Steve asked as he placed the cigarette back to his lips.

"Its not what he can do now but what he will be able to do. Hopefully in time we can have him ready before its to late. That and he is FBI and that will be handy. His power set is useful as well but i have an eye on him at the moment. The joys of being able to read most of the world at once. I am going to have to hit the x mansion at some point. They need to be kicked in to gear learn that the war is coming."
He hated the idea of his father getting in the way and he needed him to be looking else were. His run in with kurt would of spiced things up and hopefully they would not be looking in to that to much. " After you done your task would you bring Adam to one of the New york safe houses?"

FBI? Since when has anyone in that branch done any good? It could've been the FBI that had sent those people to Alcatraz island to stir up the wrath of the Phoenix. It was all guess work on that, seeing how the army was probably behind sending troops there to stop the war...or at least take down the number one threat. The mansion of Xavier was indeed a spot to hit, but, he wasn't sure he wanted any part in it. For starter, he was aligning himself with Cable, and yes he would hit all viable venues to obtain the needed artifacts to pursue a resolution to this crisis. However, that place was not one in particular he fancied himself getting caught in the middle of. The war was coming yes, however, going into that stronghold would require somene more in charge then him.
"No way, I am not baby sitting some FBI agent. I have two things to tell you upfront, first of all, attacking the X Mansion doesn't strike me as the wisest of decisions, let alone one I want to get my hands mixed up in. Two...baby sitting not my problem. As the leader of this whole op, isn't it your responsibility to recruit and bring these people here? You did recruit me, by scoping out my mutant powers and capability to fight, so, why not do this yourself?" Steve said holding his cigarette and staring at the man intently.

Cable laughed. " Its called faith i have faith in you that you could do the job and i have my reasons. Don't worry i don't want to get mixed in a family squabble with the x men. They do need a shake up they need to pull there fingers out and hopefully my agent in the x men will do that. As for the Fbi yes they are useless but some of there members can do good work if there hands were not tied. If you don't want to do it then there no point in pushing it."
He was impressed that the man had stood up agents him. Most people would of just nodded and did as they were told. Then again he wanted people who would stand up for what they wanted.

Steve sighed and was relieved he wasn't pushed against the wall by some electrical material that would hold him against his will. He had always spoke his mind, since he was young, and it was how he ran a gang at an age most kids were focusing on their studies or girls. The X-Men may be slow on the initiative, but, nevertheless they were going to help them in this war. The Sentinels when they awoke would have to be dealt with, and, who better then human loving Mutants to stall them while they did their job? Steve would eventually meet this team Cable wanted, but, protecting them or safe guarding them till a pick up could be arranged...wasn't his idea of a fun time.
"I'll leave the FBI agent in your hands. The best I can do with the X-Men is scout the perimeter, get a feel for it and report my findings back to you. Now...what kind of party is it you'll be sending me to on this particular mission? I need the lay down and everything you can provide me."

" All the information is on this disk. You need to do the work your self. If i tell you every thing it deprives you of the challenge." i disk floated up and headed to Stevens hand. " you don't cross me as some one who likes it all handed to him." he walked towards the large screen and looked on. " hopefully you will be able slip in quickly they having a fund raiser. I have just debited an acount for you to use a million should be enough to make them think you are one of them. The vault is low tech by my standards. you will have every thing to slip past and open the vaults."

Steve smiled as he held the disk in his hand. The guy did his studying well, too well, he noted as he heard him continue on. Money flashed richness, so, having the money would earn him a seat at any prestigious table. Once in he would make his way to the vault, secure the artifact, and take out any who opposed him on his way out. It was pretty simple really, but, every job had an initiation, and, this one proved to be it. "Alright, I'll have the stuff delivered here tomorrow...or today...whichever suits my taste. Is that all?" Steve asked as he placed the disk inside his pocket and made sure his sheath was secure around his shoulder.

"Yes that's all. There is no rush for this. I suggest you take some time and look around. Thats interesting" he was clearly in several places at once. " One of the Lmd will show you were you can get some body Armour and a tux. once you decied on how to go about this i will have a plane ready for you to take back to new york. if you need me all you have to do is think and i will be there."

It was at this time that Adam appeared, walking in. He'd been tracking down both individuals and was a bit surprised to find them both in the same location. They had peaked the interest of the F.B.I and Adam had discovered that he himself was interested, especially concerning Cable. From what he knew, the man was not of this age. Adam took careful and precise strides towards the two. He wore his signature outfit, a black suit with a free white suit shirt. The top three buttons of the suit shirt remained unbuttoned while the suit jacket was freely open. A black tie was wrapped around his neck in the usual fashion but it was loose and not tightened much. It was his preferred outfit and he pulled it off quite well. Each step he took was thought out as his eyes analyzed everything, taking in special detail, Cable. As his eyes set on Cable, he began to analyze his armor and everything about him. Within seconds he would know all about his armor, and even his genetic makeup. "Good evening gentlemen."

Steve nodded his head at the invitation Cable extended towards him. "That won't be necessary Cable, tours are overrated as it is. There is time for looking at this rather fancy place, but right now I have a job to do. Armor won't be needed...seeing how I am a weapon of my own design." Steve was about to set off when he noticed a rather suave looking man approaching them. His footsteps seemed to be encased in stealth and his very outfit reminded him of the picture of this guy named 'Adam'. "Hey Cable...its that Adam fellow you were looking for." Steve said as he knew this would surprise the man.

"it took you long enough to get here. I was starting to wonder if i had credited you with two much intelligence Adam. So tell me have you gotten a good look at my space ship? Your powers my struggle with the techno organic virus that is running threw my body. Its a strange one. Feel free to copy any of the tech you borrowed after all some one has to invent it. Personally i would not recommend duplicating my powers it could end up being terminal for you. " cable keept his back to him. he had move the ship twice since him and Steve had come on board and it was now some were else all together. The ships sensors were good enough to scan the man and find out every part of his DNA mapping down to when he had the chicken pox as a child.
" so is there anything we can do for you? You dont have any official jurisdiction here. so be careful what you say if it is a fight your looking for you will lose but i don't want it to come to that." He had thought Steves comments were apt and this encounter was going to be intresting.

Steve sighed as he realized all this talking was boring him. He had a mission to do, and pleasantries with the new recruit weren't on his to do list. Cable was acting rather...calm when a guy had just snuck into his spaceship. Still, that was Cable, he was coy about many things and this was one of them. Though, he second thought, Adam doesn't stand a chance against Cable in a fight with his technology advanced way beyond our very understanding. The fact that he is here now in our time means that things will end up deadly if we don't persist in carrying out our plans now. That of course means no slacking off on my end either.
"Well it is a pleasure meeting you Adam, hope you stay and listen to Cable explain the mission details. Right now I have a mission of my own and I'll just be leaving on my way. I'll report back Cable when I have obtained what I need to get my hands on. Adam...good luck." Steve left the two men behind as he found the hangar bay where a crew of people were fixing up some fancy ships. He could fly most anything, so, he opted for a small jet plane and boarded it. Hitting said coordinates he began to fly out from the futuristic ship and let the autopilot take him fast as warp where he needed to be. Those two had a lot of talking to, which of course he wasn't a part of. When and if Adam joined...then the two would likely talk.

Adam sighed, "You really disappoint me Cable. You of all people should know that my abilities have no limits. Watch. Observe. Analyze. Right? But it seems that I forgot something...Evolve. I've always believed that my ability to duplicate powers was just another form of Power Mimicry. It seems I've been wrong. It's not surprising really. Of all people, the only one I can't really analyze is myself."
He leaned against the wall, eyes serious and firm. "One night, I laid on my bed, staring at the ceiling. It was pitch dark too...But I could still see Cable. I could still hear everything and see everything. I don't think I'm an ordinary mutant. From what I've surmised, I don't think I am. I don't mimic. I evolve. Everything about me evolves. I evolve on the spot, my DNA changes. It's incredible really. I'm not sure what my limitations are anymore Cable."
He paused. He had suspicion that most of what he said was nothing new to Cable. Cable seemed to let on more than he knew. "Can you honestly tell me that the Virus will be terminal? My DNA changes Cable. Cable, who am I? My abilities are evolving faster. I...I know things I shouldn't know. Things only someone who was Omnipotent would know. If what I'm guessing is true...What happens to me Cable? I go crazy don't I? I go insane? Cable, tell me...What am I?"

Cable laughed " Yes it would be i am afraid it adapts to its not just that the telepathy a human is not built for it. I can hear the thoughts of every one on earth but the mind may be able to but the body can not. I know the answer but the question is are you ready for some thing that would change your world. trust me i can help you handle some of the changes that will come and they will be hard. Your body will be under some strain and pain. Your not the only person who has an evolution based power, there is a couple of them it is rare but it is still happened but yes you are different to other mutants." he typed on the keyboard " i am glad you followed the bread crumbs. i knew with your would work out i have been baiting you but yet you still came why?"

Adam narrowed his eyes, he already knew that his mind was almost impossible to read and control. Even Professor Xavier was unable to fully discern his thoughts. He had millions of thoughts, ideas, plans, evaluations, questions and comments, all shuffling in his mind. He never stood on a single thought very long if he wasn't focusing on it.
He sighed. He wanted answers. Why did cable have to circumvent the question? Couldn't he just answer it. It wasn't until he said there were others that Adam's curiosity truly began to grow. He had had suspicions that there were others but it wasn't until now that his suspicions were confirmed. He spoke slowly and carefully. "As we both know, my mind is impossible to fully discern and understand. A myriad of things swim around in my head, Cable. But I chose to come because I wanted answers. It's what I do, analyze. I couldn't just let it be."
