Without hesitation Terra replied simply: "Magitek Unit 001 has been assigned to Setzer Gabbiani until further notice." Quiet and mechanical, she recited her orders in a flat voice, before continuing. "Orders to follow the command of General Figaro are to be considered temporarily suspended."
Kira had looked surprised when the girl spoke, looking to Rei with a puzzle expression. "What did she say?" Continuing to watch the girl with a questioning look, Kira noted the way her features remained stoic, the only movement from her body being the steady rise and fall of her chest as she breathed. There was no doubt that there was something amiss with her, and her eye had been caught by the glowing circlet as well. "What is that--</i>"
She felt her words trail off as she watched Setzer begin to walk off, still not privy to what had been said between him and Rei, but the girl had started moving as well. Following him, Kira watched as she walked slowly, the sheer fabric of her cape catching the wind. There were no words from the girl, no acknowledgment, and even trust seemed like it might be far fetched to label the way she responded to Setzer's orders. Was she a slave?
"Let's...let them go, Rei." Somehow she just felt like it wasn't their place to interfere, and even if it meant being on their own, she felt like she was more equipped to deal with the strangeness of this place as long as she was with him.
