Departure.

"Doctor! You can't do this! You… you…" 

Miku was in tears, her arms wrapped around Sam. As he slowly petted her head, the man looked at those gathered in the runway, their expressions varying from anxiety and fear to anger.

"Miku, it's time to go." He placed his hands on her shoulders and tried to push her away, however the young Valkyrie didn't budge.

"NO!" She yelled. "If you have to go then I will come with you."

"You know we can't do that…" 

Sam sighed then looked at Shizuru who was standing a small distance away. He tried to smile at her, but all she did was give him a hard look, the disapproval of his actions clear in her eyes.

Seeing him off were the Valkyries as well as his girlfriend and ex. With the chances of nothing coming out of this being high no one saw a need for him to go ahead with his plan, however they didn't have much of a choice.
