"Matty, as much as I don't want to say this, I have to go."

"But if you leave, who knows when that man will go after you again." She was right. The man from before almost tried to kidnap me.

"Matty, please understand." I reminded her, "I chose to do this. I can't stop myself from doing this."

"Then I will." Or at least that was what Matty was going to do until a hand was placed on her shoulder. "I was wondering why it was taking so long."

"Matty, don't say anymore to Lucia. She's already made up her mind."

"But Rei Rei-!"

"It's her choice." Captain Reina finished, the sound of her voice was enough to silence Matty. "I'm sorry Till."

Matty mumbled softly, "It's fine."

Turning around Captain Reina signaled for me to follow her. I take one glance at Matty returning a small smile as proof that she was fine.
