I wish I could protect you from this. Yeah, I know how that feels. When I first got here...some people lied to me. People I thought I could trust. Turns out they were working for the people trying to lock us all up, trying to get a group of us together to hunt down our own kind. I bailed. Before then, the entire reason I was with that group of tools to begin with, I found out that my dad wasn't the sheriff and local hero I'd grown up with, but the world's most feared assassin. Maybe he was also a hero, but then again, he admitted the only reason he actually joined the X-Men was because he wanted to get with one of the girls on the team, so maybe he was just a creepy perv. I'll never know, because he was too afraid to even risk raising a kid, so he ditched me and had his old war buddy lie for him.

So I know a little about how fragile trust can be. I know how it feels to suddenly doubt everything, to wonder if the smile on someone's face is for real or if they're just setting you up for a fall. I know how easy it is to just stop trusting, because when I bailed on the losers I was on the run with, that's where I was.

Then the Seal dropped me here, and maybe a lot of bad things have happened to me since then, but you know what? I found you. You never looked at me like I was a freak, you never lied to me, and even when most people would have abandoned me or never been able to even look at me again, you did. No matter what, you were always there for me. So I learned that no matter how easy it was to believe that it was a lie, there are some people you can trust.

I know how it feels, Ariel, but just remember this: No matter what, no matter how bad it gets, I'm going to do the same for you. Even if you do decide not to trust for awhile, I'll still be here. Promise.
