She had gone on thinking that maybe she hadn't taken the right course of action, but it seemed even Creed agreed with her on that aspect. Still...her mind would often wander to that day. Wondering why the other woman even showed up. She never really did get an answer, and if it was some stupid test of Mercy's well...who the hell knew. Mercy was a very fickle woman to begin with, and if it was a test then Avalon doubted that the pale woman would be pleased with any outcome that resulted. She shrugged it off though.

Why he would choose to be around someone like that is beyond me, but she was obviously the wrong influence on him. He's grown arrogant, one trait out of many that he certainly didn't get from me." She shook her head. Lykos had certainly fallen far from the tree...and none of it was any good. He was like a rotten apple. 'I don't know why he's chosen this path...but...I'm afraid it's not something that can be changed. He's not the boy I raised, Creed. I'm not entirely sure what to do with him anymore."
