His eyes see the glint of gold, and his breath catches in his throat. He doesn't move or offer to give backup from incoming robots. There's nothing else he can see or hear but this; Halo's life, and the beeping, and the light slowly encroaching over the rest of her battered body. The truth is unspoken, but washes over all of them like a cold fog. The injuries were one thing, but she wasn't dying exactly from just that either.

Roland looks stricken with grief. Without the Voidflash, Halo was going to disappear.

Without the Voidtrecker Express, they were all going to disappear. But who was responsible for the dark cloud? The destruction? Was this the dark reality facing every void missionary...?

He's in a daze. But he forces it away, shoves it down. There are no more questions to be asked, no more suspicions to be had. As the robots come, and the barrier is held up by Koumyou Sanzo, Roland focuses on keeping Halo's gaze. Joins in as Kaiba offers a hand to her shoulder, with Roland making sure he isn't looking anywhere else. Says the only thing that needs to be said.

"It's okay. We're here. You did good. Just rest."
