Old Sins Cast Long Shadows Several years ago, in Jerusalem, CIA operative Victor Creed and Mossad agent Amichai Benvenisti walked into an abandoned mosque, where they were to rendezvous with the mutant precog known as Destiny. However, not only did they discover Destiny in shackles, but they were also captured and subjected to horrible tortures by the sadistic Hydra agent known as Catalyst. In the present, Sabretooth and Mystique go AWOL from the X-Factor team and invade the S.H.I.E.L.D. helicarrier in quest of a particular capsule. The duo quickly discovers the capsule inside a specific man’s corpse – precisely like Destiny had foretold once. Agents of A.I.M. then pursue the two mutants before they manage to hide in Mystique’s chalet in Switzerland. Much to Creed’s surprise, Raven reveals that she is Amichai Benvenisti. She also reveals that, even though Catalyst is long dead, she and Sabretooth can now exact a different kind of revenge on him by destroying his Access program designed to tap into any global networks in cyberspace. With the capsule they got, they can now discover the location of Catalyst’s long-hidden fortress and destroy his life’s work. Meanwhile, the A.I.M. commander known as Cypher dispatches her team of Technosassins with the mission to kill the two mutants and bring the capsule back to her. Soon, the Technosassins invade Mystique’s safehouse and demand the capsule is handed over to them.
