Robert was hiding behind the last corner behind Mara as she keyhauled the Remnant soldier, hearing everything she told her victim. It all made sense now. The story of when they fought over a man, her current condition, everything. The truth stabbed his heart like the last nail in a coffin. Mara already had someone she loved, and that someone had just died.

He knew that what he was trying to do would be just about impossible, so he had to come up with a plan. The problem was that he was drawing up a lot of bad endings. He was sneaking his way back to the bunker when Lock passed him. He motioned to him to keep his presence a secret from Mara, while pointing the way to her for him. He knew that she'd kill him if she ever found out he knew her secret.

After making sure that nobody would see him, he entered the bunker and closed the door. There, he found Deruella crying. He walked up to her, and with a tired arm, he wiped her tears away. "Please don't cry," he said wearily, "I'm alright. I've heard...something serious, and I need help with dealing with Mara."
