Welcome to Gaia! ::

"I personally would have waited. I understand you and Alex's sudden desire to have her home again but every good soldier should know you cannot rush into delicate situations such as her kidnapping and her rescue." Stein said bluntly. "I'm not criticizing you for your fast acting, but rather your reckless behavior. Just mere moments after she was lost and you sentenced her corrupt doctor to death, you left with one thing on mind: getting her home. You had no details, you had no plan. All you knew is that you were going to get her back alive."

"Now if we place ourselves into the situation you were in you had three options. 1) Let her go and return home alive to come up with a more detailed plan of getting her alive. One with KAVA's help seeing how she is a politically important figure head, along with her father who is donating most of the money KAVA is spending in this war. 2) Restrain her, simple as that. If she's restrained she can't fight and she can't sabotage your suit. 3) Let her go and see what happens. Who's to say they wouldn't throw her on the battle field on their side? If they did that, you could play the same card you're going to right now with her kidnapper and capture her alive."

"How are you so sure he wasn't after something else besides blood?" Stein asked, tilting his head. "If he wanted her dead, why go through the trouble of hiring a man to drug her and deliver her? Why not just drug her and kill her in front of the whole colony, her parents and yourself? Why make it secret on a ship where no one would know for certain but the killer?"

"Just because we're sadist doesn't mean we're killers." Stein grinned, no surprise a sadistic one. "Who's to say he wouldn't find his pleasure in watching her slowly die on the inside fighting for them? Against you? Slaughtering her true comrades?"

Demi shifted uneasily behind Gil, looking down at the floor.

Stein opened his mouth to reply, but Demi interrupted before he could.

"Gil... He's... not... very... far off..."

"But you harmed the most important person of all." Stein said with a grunt. "And now you offer the same man who wants to harm her, only doing more damage. Who's to say he didn't do something to her before you arrived she can't remember? Or won't admit? And seeing him will trigger this. Or maybe he'll attack her when he gets his chance."

"I swear, it's like you WANT something to happen to her." He growled.

"Now, when I say harm boy, I mean a few slightly painful medical operations." Stein with a grunt as he hit the wall. "Nothing in medicine is really painless. This man however, has much more painful ideas in his mind. Ones that make my pains seem like nothing."

"He isn't far enough as it is?" Stein asked tilting his head.

"I must say, I don't appreciate you threatening my God child's life."

"You're bringing a man who wants nothing more but revenge through Demi within striking distance."
