[@Lady Athena] Rai was enjoying the peace of the night, standing outside and looking to the stars. [i]First she's smiling and now she's asking me for advice?! Damn, whatever happened earlier today must've shook her up.[/i] Rai hears Ellie's question, and he draws a long breath before saying, "It seems like our choices are die with glory or live as deserters, or at least that's probably what Guren would say." Rai paused and scoffed " But who cares about Guren's opinion?" Rai paused, it would be easy for Ellie to tell that he was not certain of what they should do. "JIDA or not, we have to do what we can." Rai looked to his hands and clenched them, there was a definite sadness in his voice. "I feel like I have to do something because of Aya, because of what happened to her and the others. Problem is I don't know what it is that I need to do!" Rai tried to regain his composure, with mixed results. "So long as I can do something to make what happened four years ago worth it, I'll be happy." Rai declared." Anyway, enough of my opinion, what do you think we need to do Ellie? I mean you always were a kind of leader to us." Rai asked as he walked over to her.
