Faina noticed the seriousness in Pheonix's tone and figured that she probably wasn't joking around now. "That might be true," she agreed. She passed by another landmarker, a large piece of metal sticking out of the ground at a fifty degree angle. Suddenly, a new thought crossed her mind. "But maybe..." she muttered to herself before speaking out loud. "We still have radiation within us. It lives in our mutations; it won't leave. However, if he fights it, it would only make sense that his mutation would grow violent, and the tiger would take over. But if he learned to share his body with it and allow it like you have, no harm will be done." A bubble of bitter laughter erupted inside of her as she realized something. "The human might be in more danger than we expected."
