Before Car-Tali could respond to Finn he walked over to the girl to comfort her. Overhearing the girl he also felt the same, the feeling of helplessness and resentment. Car-tali recalled the gifted that he saw throat get slit and the massacre that was before him just yesterday. Then he heard Seth say “It’s alright, none of it is your fault. The Damned DMA are at fault."
Car-tali felt sadness creep up within him as he understood that humanity and gifted have been at odds with each other for a long time. The DMA are shortsighted but they also are blinded by fear of what they don’t understand and the gifted have no one to trust but themselves. Hopefully the gifted can change the world’s mind or incidents like the rally are going to happen everywhere.
Car-tali was compelled to try and comfort the sobbing girl but Cole gave him a stare as if to say don’t even think about it. Truth be told Car-tali had little experience calming people down. The only time he had to was when Car-tali witnessed an 12 year old who was crying over her brothers body. The kid had been killed because he was a gifted and the DMA didn’t need to bother with the paper work involved with bringing in a child who was not a gifted. So they just left her there. When the clean-up crew arrived she had struggled with them to not take her brother away. When Car-tali arrived he choked out the crew with smoke and questioned the little girl. She told him what happened and he could tell that she desperately wanted her brother back. Car-Tali told her that he will find who did this but she is going to have to come with him. the girl wanted to stay with her brother so Car-tali stole the DMA cleaning crew truck and took the body with them. On the way he questioned her. "What is your name". "Samantha". "Where are your parents Samantha." "Gone" Car-tali looked at the girl and felt pity. this should never happen to anyone,he thought. Car-tali arrived at a nearby conclave base. Car-tali explained the Samantha's plight and they accepted her with open arms and took her brothers body. Samantha asked Car-tali where was he going. he told her he was going to find the people who did this and that he would be back. Car-tali could never found the soldier, but he did return. Each week he would visit her and learn more about her life.
A few months ago her eyes turned red and green. She was still safe with the conclave but Car-Tali felt as though she will be hunted for the rest of her life if he didn't do something.
Car-tali was brought back to reality when Cole mentioned haven.
Car-Tali spoke out loud.” Your friend is in danger and this is the way I can prove myself. Besides you seem under equipped right now and we get to see each other in action before getting to Mallory. You don't have to trust me but trust in my ability to do what is right. Also I have been meaning to ask who are the rest of you. I know Cole but it be nice to know who is watching my back."
