The redheaded solitus leaned against a wall in Borealis, where Rubi-Ka met.a shiny blue gun lie on the floor at her feet, strange in design, it was worth more then most of her equpiment, but for a soldier,a gun was never a poor investment, she look out at the mountains in the distance, idly wondering again if she should ehad back to Hope, if her mother would still be in the doorway, ready to welcom her long lost daughter home, she doesn't dare, her soul would shatter, too much blood.They'd shown her the armor of her her long dead father, and too many credits, too long she ahd thought that was enough, but her father had died for nothing, and the credits only brought more blood with them. She still did as she was told, she'd no more want to join the Clans then she does to serve Omni Tek, but she couldn't just walk away from what she had become. Omni would bring here back in irons, and the Clans would never stop hunting her.She saw people killing themselves, eachother, only to come back again and again, to fight anew, and endless cycle of hell. And she'd contributed to much, she checked her wrist chrono, time to report, she settles the grey helmet over her head, the strange armor from the scientists of Jobe, and picks up her strange blue gun, and calmly walsk towards the grid terminal, and as she is converted over to the grid, Karenza sheds a tear, for a youth misspent, a life too lost ot be saved, and the dust, the dust of Hope.The wind of the plains, and her dear mother, still waiting for her daughter to return.
