We were finally getting somewhere. No more faceless fodder, no more endless walking, the two of us had finally reached the heart of it all.

I helped Fiona down from the train, holding her hand as she hopped off. She was clearly ecstatic over that small bit of willing physical contact.
"Y'know, I feel kind of useless this entire trip."
She said it as we walked away, our guns left behind on the train—they weren't needed anymore.
"I could train you after this, if you want."
