The roar of a motorcycle echoed through the Institute's grounds, as an unusual man came to a halt outside the school. His foot inserted itself into the dirt, as he pushed down on the kickstand with the opposite foot. His eyes trailed across the golden color of the bike before looking up at the Institute. It was the last place he expected to find himself, but a certain individual and employer now took shelter within this place, so he had little choice but to abide by such rules should he want to see any source of income.
To anyone nearby, it would seem that he resembled the man named Logan who also dwelled here. To trained eyes, though, it would be noted that his height was greater than that of Logan's as was his physique much broader and of a heavier set. Logan was yet another reason he was here, he hadn't seen his brother in such a long time. He was ecstatic to renew that brotherly bond they possessed. The paycheck he was gonna receive from this new acquaintance of Magneto's was just an added benefit.
Although, Victor himself wondered the subject of this new job and why someone from the Xavier Institute would require his services. Yet there remained only one way to find out.
Pushing his way through the front doors, Victor found himself in the front hall, the mingled aroma of all the mutants assaulted his nostrils as he took in the change. Now to just find his employer......

CAble had spent a lot of efort to get this man here he was going to be the ace in the hole. It was a tricky problem and well he needed to get every one in the right place. He closed his eyes and "listened" the man was close he could feel it. he was tempted to float in to the air but what was the point. This person was not impressed by that sort of thing. HE could hear the bike from here. His plan was simple he was going to push the students to the next level. That and he need the brother hood out of the school.
Cable was playing games within games. He moved his hand and i bag floated to his side. He knew this could go wrong and he was ready for that a gun resting at his side. It had enough stopping power to put this man down.HE could hear the thoughts of some of the people. as the door opened. " your late. The answer to you next question is I am teh one who paying for you to be here. Not magneto or Xavier. My name is Cable" he threw the bag of cash to him.
Any one in the mercenary line of work knew of cable. He was one of the best paid he had weapons and tech no one else had and his team were all A list mercs. People spent a lot of money to hire cable and his x force. The truth was cable used people greed to do what needed to be done. the truth was cable was more than a hired thug. HE looked at the man he was so much like his brother but he could sense the hatred for his brother and again cable would use that as well to get what he wanted.

The scent of the numerous mutants were pushed aside as Victor focused on one scent in particular, that belonging to the unusual man standing in the hall. His presence stood out amongst the lesser mutants, though perhaps it was just the unusual scent he was giving off, a mixture of human and machine. Smirking to himself, Creed knew exactly who the man was, having heard of the man several times before, but never having the actual opportunity to face the man. Running his hands through his golden brown hair which had grown long during the past months, his eyes remained locked on the man as he introduced himself.
"So you're the one who wishes for my unique services....."
Victor's smile grew as the bag flew through the air, Creed's hand swiping it greedily out of the air. Opening the bag, he ran his fingers through the contents, his gaze quickly darting over the bills, estimating how much was in there. Satisfied he closed the bag, slinging it over his shoulder. It was always about valuables, whether monetary or intel, that one factor remained the same. The world had always ran on capitalism and Victor doubted it would ever change. It was one of the things Victor hated about humanity, yet he too had found himself running on their methods, even if he preferred the wilds.
His gaze turned upwards towards Cable, his fangs bared in a sadistic smile.
"So what is it you require of the infamous Sabertooth? Surely it isn't no miniscule task if you're willing to pay this much for such a task."
Victor himself had earned quite the reputation as a highly efficient and lethal assassin and mercenary. His earlier days were masked yet contained a tremendous amount of bloodshed. Even in the wars, Sabretooth asserted himself as the reckoning force. He had taken many a life, some through compensation, others through sheer enjoyment. He had the ruthlessness and the willpower to see any goal to it's bitter end. Now curiosity overtook his senses as he pondered over this new task.

"i want you to do what you do best i want you to fight the x men. I am the combat trainer at the moment and i want you to be my teaching aid. You get to fight and claw no death but i don't mind or care about broken bones. If that was not enough Logans daughter is in my class. You will be aloud to stay here but while you are not in class you are not to attack any one but you can defend your self if attack."
cable smiled he knew the man would push other in to throwing teh first punch. In truth that what cable was hoping for. He needed the brotherhood to leave. Yes he could make them leave with a thought or by force. That however was not the point, it was dangerous to have the brotherhood here it made the school a target. It drew a big bullseye over the school a larger one that was all ready there.
It was a dirty tactic but it would bare fruit it would also push faith more and that was the key. HE had cleared this with xavier well part of it. HE was not happy but then he was the one who invited the brotherhood here. All cable was doing was using them to his advantage just like what magneto used them for.

Victor's forefinger found it's way to his forehead as he scratched his head, contemplating thia new position that had been offered to him by the cybernetic man. It was a rather tempting offer, even though he would be forbidden to kill the mutants. As it stood, Victor was a mercenary and a member of Magneto's Brotherhood. As of late though, The Brotherhood joined with the Xmen against the being Apocalypse's plans. In addition, Stryker no longer looked at Victor as an ally, a rocky relationship having formed, eliminating his greatest source of income. Smiling to himself, Victor let a hiss escape his lips as he took in the perks.
"So you want me to teach the pups how to fight. And I can use any method I deem appropriate so long as I don't kill any of them? Even physically maim them?"
Victor's eyes flashed towards Cable at the mention of Logan, his features lessening as Cable mentioned Logan's daughter. It had been a while since he had met the little girl, but if she was anything like her father, Victor desired to see what she had accomplished since their last encounter. After all, they were family...
Ironically enough, this was not the first time Victor was invited into Xavier's team. Victor remembered a time when Xavier was still naive and tried negotiating with him to join his cause. Victor had declined then, and Xavier had found Wolverine shortly after. This time would most likely be different, as Victor was now contemplating whether it was in his best interest to take Cable's offer.

"no i dont want you to teach them to fight any monkey could do that but i want you to teach the to survive and handle war. of course working for me has a lot of benefits. i know how people like you work and what drives you." he crossed his arms and walked around looking at the man. "so what do you say? A simple jobs for more cash than you can hope for."
cable offered sabertooth his metallic hand. " so what do you say?" cable gave Victor the knowing smile making it clear that he all ready knew what the man would do and his reaction to this agreement.

A snicker crossed Victor's lips as he grinned at Cable's proposition. It would take him a lot of effort to avoid splattering the little pups across the floor in a crimson display, but he could possibly get a decent workout out of the deal.
As Cable put out his hand, Victor's eyes merely trailed to the outstretched limb, his smile fading for a brief moment before his demented grin returned. His right arm came up before his eyes, as his gnarled claws shot out the fingertips.
"You have yourself a deal"

cable laughed. " i think you will do just fine. You know i work nothing like magneto but if you stab me in the back i will put you in a comma for the rest of your long life. Your bad ass reputation dose not scare me at all. Do you think your the only one here with ties to magneto, Hell xavier has let his kids stay here."
cable wanted to see how he would react to this. " in fact i think one of them even tried to kill daddy dearest." he did not move but kept smiling his response was going to be interesting.

Victor's eyes narrowed as Cable went on about how he was different then Magneto, even caring to throw a carefully executed threat towards him, threatening to put him into a coma should he be betrayed. Smiling in a rather nonchalant manner, his eyes remained locked on the man,in much the same manner as a starved jackal who had just located it's prey would.
"Is that a promise, spaceman?"
His eyes wavered down to his outstretched hand which still had his claws out. The claws receded back into his fingertips as he smirked once more at Cable, the ironic fact that out of all the words Cable could use, it was the one that seemed most likely at the moment. True, there had been many times he was tempted to maim Magneto, but he stayed his hands, for Magneto was useful to him as he was to the human magnet.
"Well then, it seems Magneto's gone soft as the geezer in the wheelchair has always been. Maybe I should have stabbed him and tore out his bleeding heart, but they're probably on the verge of keeling over, so what's the point?"
The last part was added with more sarcasm then Victor usually threw into his words. The following bit about one of Magneto's pawns trying to kill Xavier was amusing to him though.
"Hehehe, so Magneto has finally got bored with his losing chess streak and is deciding to play for real?"

"no magento vanished no one knows were he has gone not even his loyalest minion. so there is a power vacuum here for a cunning hunter to exploit. Quicksilver tried and failed, i do wonder if some one has the guts to try it. " he smiled as he called him as a spaceman, well yes he was but not in the way Saber-tooth meant.
"no it was not a threat just a fact on what would happen." cable was not a man for threats he made it clear what he wanted and what would happen if things did not go his way it was more simple that way. "class starts tomorrow you may find a few other faces interesting and i bet you will not be the toughest man in the room."

"Hmm, that would explain why I haven't heard from the cripple. Must have gotten taken out by a stapler." Victor's smirk grew at the news that it was Quicksilver who had tried to subdue the man. Honestly, he never cared much for the mutant. Too much talk and far too predictable for him, yet he remained one of Magneto's most trusted drones. "That's a shame. Kid must have had all that pent up sexual frustration, and decided to take it out on someone. You'd be disappointed too when your partner can't even last a second at that speed."
Rearing his head back, Creed let a laugh escaped before it was quickly silenced, his wild eyes turning back down towards Cable, the last statement catching his twitching ear. His face still broken into a feral grin, his voice rang roughly and it could be clearly detected the annoyance the last statement had hit him with. "Then I'll just have to assert myself....."

" yes you will and that is why you will be getting payed the big bucks." he handed over a flash drive to the man it floated an inch in front of him. " A list of all power sets of the students I think you will have a challenge with at least three of them. There powers will make yours useless or not that impressive to say the least." he smiled the thought of him hitting faith or max and seeing how little it did. Granted he had more experience than them but he would have to find a way to deal with them.
"think you can handle the challenge?" he knew the answer to this. " personally i would watch out for magnetos kids they can do a lot more damage than you think especially that witch."

Victor swiped at the flash drive floating in front of his face, before opening his palm to look at it curiously. It had only been a few decades in which technology had advanced so drastically. Yet Stryker had found it necessary for his men to know of such devices, despite how useless Victor had originally thought it was. He was there due to his insatiable bloodlust and desire to kill. Yet it seemed as though he would have to put such instinct aside to proceed with this job.
Clutching the drive, Victor stuffed it into his pocket irritably, as he listened to Cable drone on. His eyes narrowed as he mentioned the students might give him a challenge. "Well, let's hope they do. I recently put on a hundred pounds, so I need the exercise." Victor of course, spoke of his new adamantium skeleton, which was an addition he had finally achieved. Even without the new addition, Victor was able to stand his own against most mutants. He was sure that these new ones were no different than the Xmen he had gone up against. Possibly a little more uncontrollable, but unpredictability kept things interesting.
Victor simply sneered as Cable mentioned Magneto's group. "I was part of the Brotherhood. I'm sure I'm one not easily forgotten."
