Summary

  Note: this is part of the Zero Tolerance crossover.

  Bastion confronts Cable alone and says he has downloaded the Cerebro files, giving him data on every known mutant and their relatives. He has instructed his men to kill everyone on the list, if Cable kills him. He also knows Cable's personal history.

  OZT soldiers burst into the room and start shooting, so Cable uses TK to bring down the ceiling, and tackles Bastion as he flees. Bastion notes that Cable now has no escape route; Cable note that he cannot read Bastion's mind.

  Cable takes Bastion hostage, walks through the soldiers, and overrides their psi-shielded armor and makes them forget everything at Salem Center. As Cable passes out, Bastion picks up his gun and tries to shoot him in the back, but there are no more bullets.

  Cable wakes later and tells his tale to Bridge. Bastion is gone, and so is the mansion. SHIELD will care for the OZT soldiers; Sen. Kelly is trying to get the president to use SHIELD to stop OZT.

  In Boston, Donald Pierce plans to use the Hellfire Club to attack Cable.
