In the spring, Luther Creed was reveling the fact that it was Victor's birthday but his younger brother didn't get any pie. Hearing the commotion, their mother came in to find Victor crouching over his brother's body holding the pie as if nothing was wrong.

From then on, Victor was chained in the family cellar, with his father coming down to remove his 'devil teeth' on a routine basis. One time, when Victor warned his mother to let him go, she explained that she was too afraid of his father to do so. He told her she should be more afraid of him.

Years later, Victor managed to pull one of the chains from the wall. Unable to get the other chain loose, he chewed through his other wrist instead to get free. It was then that he murdered his father.

He's homicidal, suicidal and genocidal--and now the maniacal mutant known as Sabretooth is also running free! How did Victor Creed slip loose of Forge's restraint collar? Find out here as Sabretooth and Wildchild run across the ex-KGB psychopath called...appropriately...Chop Chop! Will Sabretooth goad his former teammate into a killing frenzy, or can Wildchild fight his inner beast and drag Creed back to X-Factor? It's 'no more Mr. Nice Guy' time for Sabretooth in this 48-page one-shot! Written by Jorge Gonzalez. Art by Frank Teran. Cover price $5.99.

Sabretooth has escaped from captivity at the Xavier Institute after several months of confinement. He quickly realizes that the X-Men are hot on his trail as he navigates the Morlock tunnels. Sabretooth's senses detect a familiar presence nearby, and he challenges his pursuer to confront him. It turns out to be Caliban, the formidable mutant tracker of the X-Force team living at the mansion. A brutal battle ensues, with Caliban attempting to exact revenge for Sabretooth's earlier actions, including harming Psylocke and Boomer. Also, Caliban has a deep hatred for Creed as he was part of the Marauders who perpetrated the "Mutant Massacre". In a moment of miscalculation, Caliban provides an opening for the cunning Sabretooth, so Creed uses a live cable to lift himself from the water, temporarily incapacitating Caliban.
