Priscilla sighs. She doesn't like where this is going. Perhaps Carmody wasn't the kind of girl Priscilla had hoped for. Perhaps she was too sentimental. Too weak to cut off dead weight in pursuit of her own ambitions. Maybe she was wrong about her.
But then it happens. Carmody leans in close, prods a finger against Priscilla's chest... and challenges her?
Priscilla is caught off guard, she never imagined Carmody having the audacity to do such a thing. But if nothing else, it confirms that Priscilla was right about her after all. She has all the confidence, poise, presence and ambition that Priscilla expected. But maybe, just maybe, she had gotten to her too late. And now instead of potentially being an ideal angel, if left unchecked, she might one day evolve into one of her greatest foes.
