She lost herself and all guys searched for her. Young Karl Lykos found her inside a cave, being attacked by pteranodons. He managed to save her but became on shock after that. After he awakes, he realizes that he needs to steal energy from others to survive.Now Lykos drains Havok's energy, and because it is to great, he transforms himself to a Pteranodon, and calls himself Sauron, after Tolkien's Lord of the Ring evil incarnate.Back in Xavier's mansion, the X-Men are watching TV and watch about Sauron. Angel put on his old Avenging Angel costume (as a disguise for the humans, because last issues) and fly towards Sauron. When he finds the monster, he is hypnotized by him.
