It's possible that that lizard mutant can make one re-live past experiences and have them end badly, and then make some things real to confuse whoever they have caught into submission, or possibly into spilling secrets. But no, Johnny, they were not the ones who shot me. A little twelve year old boy shot me, not a lizard-human mutant.
Edit: (Ziffle) That thought never occurred to me before, Yuna. But then, if the boy was a mutant, and he could clearly change between forms, why would he attack me and Rachel? It would be like attacking one of your own kind.
