Claims of protecting the Earth,
saving the Earth, without really caring about the people. Treating them as fodder. Sailor Taiyi cast a suspicious eye to the Negaverse agent as he took in Puck's words. It was a familiar story to him.
His own world had been destroyed by the exact same tale.
The agent vanished, carrying that unsettling aura away with him. For a moment, the parking garage was silent. With no more alarm blaring, and no more talking, Taiyi became suddenly aware of the sound of his own breathing. After everything,
everything, all the horror he had experienced... he was still alive, thanks to the Earth. For reasons he could not fathom, this faraway world had given him a second chance. A chance to
live.
It wouldn't do well to take this chance alone. He knew nothing about this place. A capable person was right here, offering help. It would be foolish not to accept.
So, to Puck, he said,
"Yes. Please. I need to learn. Thank you. I will follow you." With bright eyes, he nodded.
"Yes."
