It was midnight but all of Section 9 was still up. They were busy trying to track down Miki's killer, but the evidience was hard to come by.
Motoko was sitiing by a window, looking out at the city below while drinking a cup of coffee. This whole incident brought up some painful, long forgotten memories about her own lost love.
"Maybe, you're still out there, somewhere. Then agian maybe not, maybe you did die in that battle." she whispered to herself as she continued to look out at the city. She then finished her coffee, got up from the chair, and left the room.
In a small, dark, spare storage room, Togusa was laying on top of a mattress trying to get some sleep. But it was impossible because the image of his dead wife kept popping up in his head. Everytime he closed his eyes, he would always see her laying in a pool of her own blood.
"Make it go away." he yelled as he looked up towards the heavens. "Why did you take her away from me? What did we do wrong?" He continued to look up, like he was waiting for some kind of sign from God but he did not recive any.
"Damnit" he said as he pounded the floor with his fist. Togusa felt tears coming up but he was able to hold them back.
"No, I've cried enough for one day." He got up and walked to a very small window in the back of the room. He looked out and the expression on his face turned from saddness to anger.
"When I find you. Who ever you are. I swear I will make you pay for what you did." Togusa was too busy yelling to himself to notice the Major enter the room.
"Togusa" she softly said but said it loud enough so Togusa could hear her. When he heard her, he immendiantly turned around to face her.
"Major, what are you doing here?" he asked while he tried to act as casual as possible.
"I just came by to check up on you. To be honest, I thought you would have been asleep by now."
"I couldn't sleep." Togusa responded as he turned back around and looked out the window.
"I know the feeling." Motoko said, which made Togusa turn around and look at her with a puzzling look.
"I'm sorry Major but I don't think you know this kind of feeling."
"I actually do know the feeling. I know how it feel's to lose the person you love." she sadly said. Togusa became very surprised to hear this. Motoko and love were two words that didn't seem to mix.
After she said that, the two became very quiet. Togusa wanted to know more about this person but he didn't know if he should ask. He then said hell with it and decided to ask anyway.
"Major, can you tell me more about this person?" he asked. Motoko looked down on the floor and then back at Togusa. Then she started to tell him about a man named Thomas Maki.
