History
During his first years as a hero, Angel still showed a touch of the vanity and flippancy from his privileged childhood.
After a fight with Grotesk, it appeared that Professor X was dead, which made FBI agent Fred Duncan order the X-Men to disband. Warren still kept fighting crime, and dating Candy. During a date with Candy, masked men sneaked into Angel's house and killed his father, under the order of a villain called the Dazzler (who predated the much better known superhero/singer Dazzler). Angel blamed himself for this death, since he could have stopped them if he had been at home. Whilst Angel was investigating the Dazzler, Candy was kidnapped by the villain, so that he could use Warren's cooperation. Dazzler forced Angel to take off his mask, and upon discovering that Angel was Warren Worthington Dazzler revealed his own identity-he was Angel's uncle, Burt Worthington. Burt had used Worthington Industries as a cover for some diamond smuggling, but when Angel's father found out, he had to have him killed to keep him silent. In the battle that followed, Candy also found out that Warren Worthington was Angel, and Dazzler apparently died when he fell from a great height.
Deciding not to listen to Fred Duncan, the X-Men reformed again. Havok, who was the team's latest member, had been injured fighting Sentinels and so was taken to Dr. Karl Lykos for treatment. Unfortunately, Dr. Lykos was a mutate who drained energy from his victims. Draining energy from Havok turned him into the Pterodactyl-like Sauron. While Sauron committed robberies, Angel was thought to be the criminal due to the similarity of powers. Tracking down Sauron, Angel was hypnotized into fighting the X-Men. To stop Angel without hurting him, the X-Men tied him up whilst they went to the Savage Land to stop Sauron. Out of his trance, Angel followed the X-Men to the Savage Land only to be downed by the flying reptiles that lived there. Just as it seemed that Angel would die, a mysterious man called the Creator appeared, who had created a sanctuary for mutants. The Creator treated Angel's wounds and gave him a new costume. The X-Men arrived in the Savage Land, looking for their friend, and encountered Ka-Zar, who told them that Mutates were attacking his Fall People. The X-Men encountered the Mutates and Angel, both of whom were convinced that the Creator was a hero. The other X-Men told Angel about the attacks on the Fall People, which led him to confront the Creator. The Creator turned out to be none other than Magneto, the X-Men's greatest foe. The X-Men and Ka-Zar eventually defeated Magneto and his Mutates, and were able to return home.
Xavier returned shortly after wards, revealing that it had been Changeling who had been murdered whilst he had been preparing for an invasion of an alien species called the Z'Noxx. Xavier used the consciousness of everyone on Earth to drive them back. Shortly after wards, Xavier sent the X-Men back to the Savage Land to see if Magneto was dead as they had believed. During this mission, Angel met Avia, a bird woman native to the Savage Land. Angel and Avia were separated from the others during the return to the civilized world, and captured by soldiers who planned to sell them to a man called Krueger. The X-Men came to their rescue, defeating both Kreuger's freaks and the Brotherhood of Evil Mutants. Candy Southern revealed that Burt Worthington was still alive, and planned to marry Angel's mother so that he would control the Worthington fortune. The X-Men managed to defeat Burt Worthington and the Worthington's mutant hating doctor, but Angel's mother died as a result of a weak heart and a poison the Worthington's doctor had been giving her.
Many months later, Magneto infiltrated the school and defeated the X-Men. It was revealed that the costume he had given Angel whilst in his guise as the Creator actually drained some of Angel's mutant energies to himself, which restored him to full power once he put it on. Complete with the hood that was part of the costume and a pair of fake wings, Magneto appeared to be Angel. The Avengers arrived and took the X-Men with them, not suspecting that "Angel" was really Magneto. Meanwhile, the real Angel fell prey to an attack by the Secret Empire. The Avengers and the X-Men found out about Magneto and managed to defeat him with the help of Daredevil, but didn't find Angel for many weeks. With the help of Captain America and the Falcon, the X-Men saved their teammate and returned to life as before. That is, until they were captured by Krakoa the Living Island. After being saved by a new team of X-Men, all of the X-Men except Cyclops decided to leave and live their own lives, since there was a new team to replace them.
The Champions
The Defenders
X-Factor
Archangel
Apocalypse offered to restore Angel's wings, but used the opportunity to transform Warren into one of his Four Horsemen, Death. In this form, Warren's skin turned blue and he was given razor-sharp metal wings. After Iceman tricked Warren into thinking that he had killed him, Angel was able to overcome Apocalypse's programming and returned to his superhero ways under the name Archangel. Archangel made his print debut in X-Factor #24. After Apocalypse's brainwashing wore off, Angel didn't join X-Factor immediately. First of all he hunted down Cameron Hodge, who had kidnapped Candy Southern. Cameron killed Candy Southern, so in retaliation Archangel cut off his head with his wings. After helping during Inferno, Angel officially adopted the codename of Archangel. After a long mission in outer space, Archangel helped save a policewoman named Charlotte Jones, who fell out of a helicopter in the confusion of X-Factor returning. During this point Archangel found out that his wings would lash out when he was angry, and he could only control them with intense concentration.
A bit later, Archangel was kidnapped by the Ravens, some semi-immortal beings. Since he had killed one of their group, Angel had to take the place of the member he had killed. The effect of Warren joining the group would be permanent once he had killed someone. Charlotte Jones, the woman Archangel had saved a few months ago, was intended to be Warren's victim, until he found out that she was a single mother after her husband had died whilst on duty (he had been a cop). Charlotte's courage let Angel break free of the Ravens and after he killed the leader of the Ravens, Crimson, they were much weaker than before. Shortly after wards Charlotte and Warren started dating.
X-Tinction Agenda
During the story arc known as X-Tinction Agenda, the X-Men found out that Cameron Hodge was still alive. He had made a deal with a demon and now had a cyber-scorpion body which was indestructible. Hodge was also in charge of Genosha. Cyclops, Havok and Archangel managed to destroy all of Cameron's body except his head. The New Mutant Rictor toppled the Genoshan Citadel on top of Hodge's head, burying it forever. Many weeks later, Archangel rejoined the X-Men after the events of the Muir Island Saga, with Warren being a member of the Gold Team led by Storm.
Despite the large amount of time that had passed, Warren was still lost in self pity because of the changes Apocalypse had made to him. Around this time the Morlocks had an uprising against the city. Warren and the rest of the X-Men went into the tunnels beneath New York, where Archangel found the spot where he had been crucified. Jean Grey helped open Warren's eyes and Warren came to terms with his fate. He also realized that the wings were not acting of their own accord when he was angry, and that it was his own suppressed anger that was making them react the way they were.
X-Cutoner's Song
A few days later, during the X-Cutioner's Song, Apocalypse returned from his regenerative sleep and had a battle with Stryfe. Apocalypse agreed to work with the X-Men to bring Stryfe down. Warren vouched for Apocalypse's brilliant skills as a geneticist and let him heal a critically wounded Xavier. After a battle with the Dark Riders Apocalypse was severely wounded, and asked for Warren to kill him whilst he was still one of the strong. Archangel refused, proving that he was better than Apocalypse.
The Phalanx
Over time Archangel apparently stopped dating Charlotte Jones. Around this time Archangel and Jean Grey went up to Warren's Colorado Aerie where they found Candy Southern, apparently alive and well after her supposed death. Candy explained that Cameron Hodge's agents had somehow kept her alive after her "death" before they did some surgery on her body. At that point Cameron Hodge appeared, who revealed that he and Candy were from the same "stock," techno-organic Phalanx creatures with the brain wave implants of their original bodies. After a brief battle, Phalanx Candy sacrificed herself to kill Phalanx Cameron Hodge.
Psylocke
Following that battle, both Archangel and Psylocke got invited to join the Hellfire Club's inner circle, which was restarting thanks to Shinobi Shaw. Both of them refused, and after they battled their way out they realized that they had much in common (both had been famous, been heirs to wealthy families, and had been manipulated by their enemies). After the first sparks of attraction, Psylocke and Archangel started dating. Soon after wards, their relationship was questioned by Warren when Psylocke's mind was pulled back in time to stop Legion from killing Magneto as part of Legion Quest. Warren ended up deciding that he did want to have a full relationship with Psylocke. A bit later, Psylocke was seriously injured by Sabretooth, who had been a prisoner and was escaping, and Psylocke had to be hospitalized. Warren and the rest of the X-Men tracked down Sabretooth, but during the fight one of Angel's wings was badly damaged by Sabretooth. Despite Angel being badly injured, he still teamed up with Wolverine and Doctor Strange to save Psylocke's life with a mysterious force called the Crimson Dawn. After Psylocke was better, she and Angel retired to Angel's chalet in the Rockies.
Onslaught
When a mysterious being known only as Onslaught appeared, Psylocke and Archangel both had to go help the X-Men, without guessing that Onslaught was actually Professor Xavier, their mentor. Onslaught managed to beat most of the X-Men with little effort. Psylocke, Archangel, Cannonball, Cyclops and Phoenix all had to travel to Muir Island so that they could read the Xavier Protocols, which were files with information on how to kill certain X-Men. When Onslaught was finally beaten by most of Earth's heroes, Professor Xavier was arrested for his crimes as Onslaught.
Operation: Zero Tolerance
Psylocke and Archangel decided to move to Warren's Soho loft so that they could be closer to the X-Men in case of emergencies. Both Warren and Psylocke started showing strange side effects of their injuries; Psylocke got a crimson tattoo over her left eye and could now teleport through shadows. She also started to grow more distant to Warren. Warren himself lost his metallic wings when they molted as his feathers began to grow back beneath the metal shell. After the outbreak of Sentinels due to Operation: Zero Tolerance, Archangel and Psylocke joined forces with Maggott to save the X-Men. They found them in Antactica, with a new Eric the Red putting Gambit on trial. It turned out that it had been Gambit who had led the Marauders into the Morlock tunnels, although he claimed that he hadn't known their intentions. The X-Men returned to the States, and Archangel received word that one of the old Champscrafts from when the Champions had been formed had been stolen by Hawkeye. Warren ended up fighting Hawkeye's new team the Thunderbolts, but shortly afterwards helped them stop Graviton.
Fighting Death
Archangel and Psylocke returned home for a while, but Psylocke left for a while to go visit her brother Brian (Captain Britain). Whilst Archangel had been away, the current team of X-Men had released Xavier from prison. However, Xavier had become mentally unhinged and started pushing the X-Men too far, so Storm called in Cyclops and Phoenix to reason with him. They couldn't help the Professor, who told them to leave since he had no use for failures. Before they could return to the Anchorage, Cyclops and Phoenix were contacted by Mannite, Nina, who requested the X-Men's help. Along with Archangel, Wolverine, Cable and X-Man, they formed a new team of X-Men. The new team went to go stop Apocalypse's Horseman Death, who was attacking the Mannites. During the fight, Death seemingly killed Wolverine, but it turned out the "Wolverine" was actually a Skrull.The Skrull had replaced Wolverine whilst Wolverine was being brainwashed into becoming Apocalypse's newest Horseman, Death. After the real Wolverine attacked the mansion as Death, Warren was one X-Man nominated to take him down, along with Shadowcat, Psylocke, Nightcrawler and Jubilee. For some reason, Angel experienced a new power as he was close to Apocalypse's handiwork. Some life energy formed itself into a new pair of wings for Angel. Angel released the life energy into Apocalypse's former Horseman War, (Abraham Lincoln Kieros) which cured him of his paralysis.Decimation
World War Hulk
During World War Hulk, Angel joins the Renegades, a faction who goal is to help the Hulk. The other members are fellow Champions member Hercules; Namor's cousin Namora; the SHIELD agent Carmilla Black (Scorpion); and Amadeus Cho, the seventh smartest human in the world.Messiah Complex
Angel is part of the team which investigates the new mutant birth in Alaska. He is later part of the team who is looking for former Acolytes. He is next seen part of the same team, but attacking the Marauders. Warren goes against Mister Sinister, but is easily defeated once he gets over Emma Frost's mental attack. He is knocked out, but recovers just fine and is present with the X-teams for the final battle over the fate of the baby.
Divided We Stand
Angel is later seen flying over San Francisco, going to meet with Hepzibah, Warpath, and Iceman, when he stumbles across an area that looks as if the 1960s never ended. He contacts Scott and Emma, asking them for assistance before suffering the mind-altering effects of the zone, which are revealed to be caused by Martinique Jason. Angel and the three other ensnared X-Men are sent by Martinique to confront Scott and Emma. Emma manages to free them from the illusion and during the fall-out battle, Angel rescues the mayor of San Francisco. Thankful for the assistance and for the idea of having real superheroes in their city, the mayor then talks to Cyclops and Angel about helping them resettle the X-Men in San Francisco.
Archangel Returns
Adam Harkins experiments on some of his feathers to locate the "Apocalypse Strand," the Celestial Technology Apocalypse grafted onto Warren in his transformation into the Horseman of Death. Harkins discovered that every cell of every feather of both wings was the Apocalypse Strand and that when exposed to blood the cells rewrite its hosts DNA and begin to grow into metal wings. The Purifiers used this to create similar beings they called "The Choir."
Back at Angel's Aerie, Elixir repaired Warren's injuries and then attempted to re-grow his wings. Elixir is unable to re-grow Warren's wings because those cells are not actually organic. Warren discovered that the feathered wings which he thought he had regenerated since discarding the Horseman Death persona were not his own, but just another form of Apocalypse's metal wings. When Elixir tried to bypass the Celestial Technology and regrow organic wings, the Celestial Tech blocks his powers. Soon, Warren has a massive seizure and his body reverts to its Horseman form, with its blue skin and razor-sharp steel wings. The process of creating the Choir is what created the seizure and sent Angel's nervous system into complete disarray and put him into excruciating pain.
X-Force attacks Archangel, who eventually asks for relief from the pain of losing his wings and transforming into Archangel. Nevertheless, Archangel escapes into the night, intent on taking vengeance against the Purifiers. Archangel appeared to be the strongest he has ever been: defeating X-Force, nearly out-flying a jet, and taking on the Purifiers. Warren arrived at the Purifiers' headquarters and slaughtered the Purifiers in an attempt to reclaim the wings that were stolen from him, killing every member of the Choir and a substantial portion of the Purifiers' recruits. However, once the battle is over, he reverted back to his normal angelic, feather-winged appearance. He commented to Logan that he can still feel the metal wings inside him however, and that they want to come out again. According to Elixir, Warren's transformation is permanent, implying that he is fully capable of transforming back into Archangel again at any time.
In an attempt to understand what was done to both Wolfsbane and Angel, the pair of them are placed in a room together, where Rahne is forced to gaze at Warren. The mere sight of him causes her to become murderous once again, and she attempts to rip the wings from Warren's body once more. The sight of a psychotic Wolfsbane, as well as the fear of having his wings torn from his body again, causes a defensive reaction in Warren, reverting him back into his violent Archangel persona. Cyclops lept into action grabbing Archangel and talking him down. Allowing Warren to regain control. Back at Angel's Aerie, the team reports back to Cyclops on what happened and now decides on who next in their hit list.
Recently Angel and X-force sought out The Vanisher and forced him to join their team because he had stolen a strain of the Legacy Virus. When the team finally tracks down that strain, Cameron Hodge and the Right show up just in time to give them trouble. X-Force fought back while X-23 fought the Right members holding the virus. But as they fight, X-23 drops the virus and is stabbed at the same time, the virus being released into her body. She decides after killing the Right member by popping her claws into his head, to kill herself by jumping into a vat of furnace to destroy the virus along with her. The Warren and the other members of X-Force cover Elixir as he chases after X-23 hoping to save her. He catches up with her, but she still jumps off. Luckily, Elixir catches her hand, and purges the virus out of her. This however took too much out of him and he drops her. Later, she's revealed to be alive, Josh managed to divert her course slightly while healing her. She caught on fire, burning her hair away and her skin, but still alive.
The Friends of Humanity are holding a rally in Iowa, at which they condemn mutants yet again, shouting blasphemy about them and so on. Suddenly, the mutant Beautiful Dreamer runs into the crowd, screaming for help. Suddenly, her mutant powers within her explode, affecting everyone at the rally. Her powers made everyone forget everything, including to keep pumping their own hearts. The Leper Queen had injected Beautiful Dreamer with a different strain of the Legacy Virus that affected her powers, changing them and making them unstable. Cyclops reveals the Leper Queen's plan: inject mutants with the strain of the virus, send them to heavily populated areas, effectively "detonate" the mutant's power in order to kill as many humans as possible, and then rally support for mutant-hate groups.
X-Force then splits up: Archangel and X-23, Vanisher and Warpath, and Domino and Wolverine. Each are at a different Freinds of Humanity rally, expecting them yet again to throw a mutant into the rally and kill everyone there. X-23 smells something burning, and Fever Pitch stumbles into the crowd, screaming for help. Wolverine shouts to Vanisher to get X-23 and Archangel out of there, but Fever Pitch explodes, luckily, X-23 and Archangel being on the rim of the explosion. One of Leper Queen's henchmen drugs Hellion's drink and they take him away in a van after he passes out.
After X-Force escapes the explosion, they are discussing what exactly happened and Archangel shows further indications that he is becoming more and more unhinged. He also adds that he saw the Leper Queen there but was unable to get to her in time. This confirms that she is with Bastion. Cyclops approves Wolverine's kill order for Leper Queen and gives them another mission: To help Cable and the mutant baby, Hope. He gives them all time travel devices that will give them 33.2 hours in the future before returning them home. The Cuckoos pinpoint were the Leper Queen is and Cyclops has them relay that information to Wolverine.
X-Force moves against the Leper Queen and kill everyone that is still in her hideout except Leper Queen. She is holding Boom-Boom hostage in hopes that they will kill her to end her suffering. Vanisher knocks Leper Queen away from Boom-Boom and Wolverine jumps on her just as Cyclops gives the order to transport X-Force into the future.
X-Force find themselves having traveled 900 years into the future on their next mission; to protect Cable and the supposedly mutant messiah, Hope. Elixir complained about going back to the present to save their friends that were left behind. Wolverine promised him that they will. The team then joined with Deadpool and Wade told the X-Force that Cable will be at the old Xavier Institute. Suddenly, X-23 picked up Cable's scent and began tracking him. When Wolverine was about to face Cable, he instead met up with Hope, with Cable pointing a gun in his temple. Wolverine informed Cable that they were sent to the future by his father to help him against Bishop. Cable had news of his own, and he updated the other timetravelers that Bishop was in league with Stryfe , Cable's clone. When X-Force and Cable were attacked by Stryfe's army: Hope, Elixir and Vanisher escaped the skirmish. A division in the ranks occurred when Angel was drawn away by a voice whispering in his mind. When the battle is over, Cable warned Vanisher not to take away Hope from him. While X-Force was traveling, Wolverine talked to Warpath about being responsible to Hope's life if the whole team or Cable should fail. They were then attacked by Stryfe directly, who soundly defeated them one by one. Even as Cable detonated a bomb within Stryfe's armor, it was useless. Stryfe captured both Hope and Warpath. Meanwhile, Archangel traveled into the mountains and was surprised to discover the source of the voices he had been hearing, his former master and the one who turned him into Death, Apocalypse.
But Apocalypse is no longer the warrior he once was, he is now a crippled, dying geriatric. Archangel is faced with a monumental decision: give in to his Death persona and kill Apocalypse or allow Apocalypse to live. Apocalypse claims that death comes but not him, because he is eternal - an immortal. Archangel then asserts that Death comes to all, even to Apocalypse. Archangel says that Apocalypse created him to cull the weak, to insure only the strong survive; but Apocalypse is no longer strong. Apocalypse then commands Archangel to become Death and do what he created his Horseman to do. Archangel then transforms to his feathered form and refuses to kill Apocalypse in order to not give him the satisfaction and then he says that he is no longer Apocalypse's. Archangel still has mercy and humanity within him, and gives Apocalypse three of his metal, feather blades. A pocalypse then says he summoned Angel to end his life, but that he now sees that Angel is no longer Death. While he is holding the blades and conversing with Angel he begins to absorb the feathers and use the Celestial Technology to restore his body. Angel then asserts that he is Death, just not Apocalypse's.
The fully restored Apocalypse then tells Angel that he once would have considered sparing his life a sign of weakness. He then wonders weather or not they will see which one of them is truly strongest; but today, they will go to the same space, to do the same thing - together they will kill Apocalypse's foster son, Stryfe.
X-Men
Powers
Emerging
When Angel's powers first emerged, his body developed a higher metabolism, lost all body fat and became more muscular, and his bones became hollow, allowing him to run faster and jump higher. He then gained peak human strength and could lift almost 400 pounds. It was revealed that Angel is either a descendant of the Cheyarafim mutant race or his mutation resembles the mutations specific to this race.
Fully Developed
Angel then sprouted and grew white, feathery wings. Angel's natural wings give him the ability to fly. They are super-humanly strong, easily capable of breaking a man's bones and tossing someone through a wall, and allow him to lift an additional 200 pounds. He has super-humanly sharp vision and hearing, and his eyes can withstand high-speed winds. His body is accustomed to low temperatures at high altitudes, and his lungs can breath easily even at full flight speed. Warren prefers to fly under the clouds, and can normally fly nonstop for half a day. However, he can reach the highest recorded altitude of a bird (equivalent to the height of Mount Everest), which quickly tires him out.
Later, he developed a secondary mutation: a blood-borne regenerative healing factor that enabled him to heal at an extraordinary rate. Superficial lacerations and punctures heal almost immediately and more severe injuries, such as broken bones or internal organ damage, heal within days. This healing factor can also be transfered to others via blood transufion. Once transferred to an injured/ill individual (especially if they share his blood type), their tissues regenerate or can even be resuscitated if recently dead, but this ability is limited by the amount of blood Angel can transfer or survive losing. As a result of his Cheyarafim nature, Angel's blood is toxic/caustic to the Neyaphem mutant race, including Nightcrawler.
Apocalypse's Celestial modifications granted him different and far greater abilities. His skin turned blue and his tissues were enhanced, granting him far greater strength, durability, and endurance. He was given razor-sharp metal, retractable claws and wings. The wings could also shoot poison-tipped metal feathers. Warren has independant control over each and every feather. However, the wings were sometimes hard to command, especially when Warren felt strong emotions.
Abilities
Expert Combatant: a skilled combatant, especially in aerial hand-to-hand combat, trained by Professor X, Black Widow and Hercules. Considered the best aerial fighter in the Marvel Universe, outsmarting and defeating much faster opponents like the Human Torch, Quicksilver and Iron Man.Business Sense: Talented businessman whose wealth ranks him in the lower part of the Fortune 500 list.
Alternate Realities
Earth-295
However, he could no longer remain neutral when his two business associates, Karma and Quark, were captured by Apocalypse's forces for associating with the Human High Council. Angel himself was eventually captured himself and, though he managed to escape, he found the beaten body of Karma. Filled with anger and thoughts of revenge against Apocalypse, he strapped explosives to his own body and flew into the shield barrier protecting Apocalypse's fortress. His suicide allowed X-Man entry into the citadel.
Angel had the same powers of flight as in the regular Marvel 616 universe. Any secondary mutation, such as his healing blood, either did not exist or was not revealed. Angel also was never turned into Archangel in the AoA universe, therefore he never had the metal wings, poisoned feathers, or blue skin.

Angel of the Ultimate Universe was born with his wings, and became a member of the X-Men’s junior class. Angel tried to rescue Longshot in Genosha from being publicly executed, but failed and got captured. After being saved by Dazzler, he was expelled by Professor X. Sensing that Dazzler would be expelled had he not taken the blame for her actions, Angel spoke up and claimed the whole idea was his doing. In turn, Professor X expelled Angel and spared Dazzler. But this was only a cover-up for Warren to spy on Emma Frost's school. When Bishop reassembled the X-Men, Dazzler wanted Angel to be a part of the new team, over Bishop's objections. Warren was later killed by Mr. Sinister while protecting a Morlock, although he returned to life soon thereafter. During the Ultimatum event, Warren was killed by Sabretooth. In the 1610 version, he still possesses his wings, enhanced strength and agility. He doesn't seem to have the healing factor of the 616 version.

He hunted down her kidnappers, but was approached by N’astirh, who wanted him as an accomplice. Angel declined and killed N’astirh, but in the process was killed himself.What if? (2)
In another What If? story, Angel rejoined his teammates as Archangel as usual, but Warren became more violent and alienated from his friends. Apocalypse's ideas about "survival of the fittest" inspired Angel to kill many of X-Factor's foes, but Archangel also killed X-Factor and Apocalypse's Four Horsemen. Apocalypse was annoyed as most of them were considered "fit", but Angel was on a rampage by now. He turned on Apocalypse, but the outcome of this fight is unknown.X-Men: Misfits
When she was introduced to the Hellfire Club, Angel asked Kitty to become his girlfriend. However, she rejected him, although Angel didn't appear hurt by this. He later tapped on her bedroom window and flew her down into the grounds where the rest of the club were holding a secret bonfire. However, Kitty had a fear of phasing and falling, so she squirmed in his arms until they reached the floor. She then began to date Pyro, although Angel didn't seem to hold a grudge against his fellow Hellfire Club team-mate.
