Around 100 kilometers away from Quake City, a massive Phoenix landed on the cracked ground.
Mira, who was on the back of this Phoenix, looked at the sad expressions of her two companions and didn't know what to say. She's never been very good at goodbyes and it seems she still isn't very good at them.
Truthfully, Mira didn't mind leaving them or being alone and if she had it her way, she would have just said "Bye" and ran off to the city up ahead.
Should fate allow it, they'll meet again in two years anyway. To Mira, this amount of time was nothing. With how busy she'll be, she has no doubt that these two years will go by in a flash.
Part of Mira wished they'd be separated for longer because that amount of time is not enough for her baby chick companions to spread their wings.
"Are you sure we can't come with you, Mira? I promise we won't get in your way!"
Maria tearfully said, but Mira shook her head.
