Alpha slowly walked along the path leading out of the dojoville, to where he'd lived with his sister, Beta, before they were attacked.
The ground crunched under his bare three-toed paws....both of which were synthetic.
Actually, all of his limbs were cybernetic, he only wore a short sleeved T-shirt and Khaki shorts that went to his knees, showing off the white arms and legs, the joints of which glowed a light blue.
He continued to walk, a small metal box in one arm to gather belongings so his sister would be able to be more comfortable living with Ry, who had taken over the role he had. Protect Beta, which he'd proven to be incapable of doing.
He reached the front yard, putting a hand against the side of the Sparrowhawk as he walked through the door, which had been left ajar, and he began collecting items.
Soon, a happy, yet paradoxically sad tune began to play from a music box, drawing attention to the small house.

He seemed a little offended that Alpha doubted his sincerity. "Ok... she's in Ry's ship, right?"
-
"She is" He said flatly "She hasn't left since"
-
He nods. "I should go then... You wanna come along?"
-
*This tune also starts ringing in Dark Alpha's head, as he slowly but surely followed this sound, until he came up behind Alpha, the sound getting louder and louder as he gets closer.*
-
"Nice to see you again, Alex" he didn't turn around, and he saw a small Piano-shaped music box playing the song, something his mother had given them
-
"Nice to see you too." He says, staring at the box. He felt sad, as something started to click in his head.
-
"Just gathering some things for Cassandra" He kept grabbing a few things and putting them in the box
-
*He continues to the box slowly and gradually, eventually picking up the box and looking over it.* "I....I actually remember this song. My own mother used to sing it to the two of us before bed at night. She said it would keep out the 'demons' of the night." He remembers, looking back on the newly found memory.
-
"......we were kids, of course she did" He kept gathering items, even putting a small pistol and butterfly knife in the box
-
"Heh...it's a shame I probably won't see them again." He replies somberly, before looking toward Alpha. "Can...can I see Cassandra? I...just want see some kind of family again...even if they don't recognize me as you."
-
"She'll recognize you, I told her about you and that since you made it out.....she might meet the other her too" he nodded "Dunno where she is......but...we both got shot, she's....still jumpy though"
-
"I...could understand that. Wherever she is...I will find her." He says with some small type of determination, helping Alpha pack the rest of the stuff.
-
"She's either in a friend's ship or hanging out in a courtyard" He put the last item in and close it, lifitng the heavy box easily with a metallic arm
-
*He grabs his sword and the metallic box from earlier and follows Alpha.*
-
He keeps walking, looking around, entering the dojo after some time
-
*He does the same, putting his sword away, as he continues to follow Alpha.*

After a minute, they both spotted a girl sitting on a bench, her body structure like Alpha's, but more feminine and petite. her horns were less than an inch, sawed off halfway, her left eye was mechanical and both were lavender, and her legs were cybernetic below the knees She wore a plain white T-shirt, shorts that went to her knees, and boots like Alpha's, save they had pruple highlights on them, and like alpha, she had an intricate set of scars on her neck Alpha smiled, but motioned for you to go ahead "Go say hi"
