Line 36:
At some point around 2018, Ben, for reasons his siblings would never understand, lost his mind and began killing people in various major cities across the United States. In 2020 he made his way to Seattle, where he claimed two more victims. His M.O. was always the same: he captured his intended targets, those he believed "worthy" of the Blue Lady's protection, tattooed them with his own barcode on their necks, armed them, and proceeded to release them into a forest, where he hunted them down and killed them by breaking their necks. He would then pull out their teeth, as he had done back at Manticore, and left the body to be found. Signs of his unbalanced mental state could be seen in his apartment, having covered the walls and other objects with words from Manticore indoctrination sessions, such as Mission, Discipline, and Duty.
Ben's old unit-mate, [[Max Guevara/X5-452|Max]], who was living in Seattle at the time, learned of his killings through [[Eyes Only]], and tracked him down. Unwilling to turn him in to the police, for fear of exposure, she tried to convince him to stop, but to no avail. Ben escaped her and went after another victim, Father Destry. By this time, Lydecker had followed Ben to Seattle, and was also beginning to close in on him. Max followed Ben into the forest, and intervened just before he could kill his target. She then fought him, giving his victim time to escape, and
Ben was survived by his identical twin brother [[Alec/X5-494]]. Ben never met Alec and never became aware of Alec's existence, but Alec was aware of Ben because his escape and psychosis both resulted in Alec being sent to [[Psy-Ops]]. Alec was given a clean bill of mental health after a period of observation, showing that Ben's insanity was not caused by genetic factors.
