History

Cameron Palmer was Kiden Nixon's teacher. One day at school, a student Kiden had had a fight with brought a gun to school and tried to shoot her, but Kiden used her powers to slow time and dodge the bullet, and Cameron was shot instead.[1]

Six months later, Cameron, despite having survived, had quit her job and fallen into a depression worsened by her recent divorce. She attempted suicide, but was found and saved by Kiden, who had run away from home after the incident.[1]

After recovering in the hospital, Kiden told Cameron she was a mutant, but she didn't believe her and ordered her to return home to her mother. That night, Kiden left to find the hotel where X-23 was prostituting herself and Cameron found the address in her notebook and followed her there. They both found X-23 cutting herself over the body of a client who committed suicide in front of her.[2]

The trio fled and Kiden explained how she saw the ghost of her father and he told her to find Cameron and X-23.[3] In Cameron's apartment, Kiden saw her father's ghost warn her to flee with the Cameron and X-23, as the latter's pimp Zebra Daddy and his henchmen were targeting her for supposedly killing a john. They fled to the streets and later collided with Tatiana, a young mutant running to escape harassment from a crowd of humans. The crowd fled when Tatiana achieved a monstrous cat form, but X-23 managed to calm her down and regress back to her true form.[4]

In the Bronx, the group caught Tatiana up on everything. Several days later, Cameron cruelly told Kiden she blamed her for the misery in her life and even told her her mother was better off without her.[5] Cameron later apologized.[6]

At that point, Kiden had another vision of her father warned Cameron that they had to get back to her apartment. While the other waited outside of her building, Cameron entered her apartment and was ambushed on one of Zebra Daddy's henchmen. Outside, Kiden again saw her father's ghost, accompanied by Bobby Soul, who warned her that it was a trap and told her to go with Bobby. Hearing Cameron screaming inside, the group was suddenly attacked by Zebra Daddy and more of his henchmen, but X-23 killed several of them, and heard more screaming from Cameron.[6]

Back inside, Cameron struggled with the henchman, and in the conflict threw him and herself out the window. Tatiana, in her cat form, caught her. Dangling from the building wall, Cameron witnessed Zebra Daddy gun down and seemingly kill X-23 before her sleeve ripped and she fell. Kiden then froze time, realizing Zebra Daddy was her father's killer, and almost killed him but instead chose to push a mattress under Cameron to cushion her fall. After Kiden unfroze time, Cameron fell unharmed to the ground. Zebra Daddy put a gun to Kiden's head, but was killed by X-23 before he could shoot her. Bobby beckoned the young women to come with him where they could be safe and they reluctantly agreed and followed him to his apartment.[6]
