Was the Red Fleet's inglorious captain actually completely insane? Or did he have a method to his madness? Both Havran and Miiko were against the idea of being paired with each other, Fox seemed pretty much uncaring as to what the party make up was and Rose couldn't help but wonder what exactly Varus was planning. "Yeah, I want to be with you, Captain!" Havran insisted but then he patted both Miiko's and Havran's heads. "Isn't it so epic, the little sister bursting in to rescue her big sister who has been waiting for all these five years?!" There was an insane light in his eyes that Rose couldn't understand. "It's a true moment of destiny, for the history books, people will sing of this battle in the years to come!" Rose stared and even after they all split up, headed to the elevator to go to the lower floors, Rose found Captain Varus to be utterly incomprehensible.
As Miiko and Havran bickered about who was in charge, Fox gave Rose a peculiar smile, he too, was one of those unreadable types, he always sported a vague smile, so it was impossible to tell what he was really thinking on the inside. "Little children shouldn't have to fight in war." He said quietly, referring to the two girls ahead of them. "It should be adults who fight, keeping them safe to be children." Rose wasn't an adult, but it made sense why she wasn't grouped as one of the children. "I don't think things like the sanctity of childhood exists anymore in this world." Children could be used as tools in war, they could be made to do awful things and have awful things done to them. "But couldn't you say the same about ours? We pretended to protect children, but people still hurt and killed them every day." Fox nodded, that same smile etched on his face, but his eyes were grave.
At Miiko's guidance, they eventually found the elevator after a little bit of fighting. Not much, thankfully, both Fox and Rose didn't want their little ones to have to - wait, why was she thinking all like an adult, like a mother? Yes, Miiko was essentially a midget, but they were still technically the same age! "Because they work here." Havran said snootily. "The Captain made sure that they were on our side, so we know the information is true!" Fox didn't quite look like a father either despite being clearly an adult. "Is this the right floor?" Fox nodded. "She's somewhere on this floor." This was where the highest security was, with only a few prisoners but behind the tightest locks. Havran had a strange tool in hand. "A bypass shunt, it can open any lock!"
"I-I'm excited too." Rose said distractedly as she cut through another Republic warden. Was she really excited though? Wasn't it more like dread? "No, she won't be angry. No sister would hold a grudge for something like that." No, what Miiko did, what happened to Stella wasn't her fault. "It's not like you ratted her out to the Republic or anything." Havran snorted as she shot another enemy, leading the charge, not letting Miiko take the front line. "Yeah, only disgusting people would snitch!" She said with a grin, each word stabbing Rose's heart. "I want to kill anyone that could snitch out family!"
