As chaos entered the room and saw exactly who was sitting on the bed, he just..froze, a surprised noise leaving his mouth without him fully registering it as he gazed at..Mary, whole and alive again.
Even though, wonderful though it was, she shouldn't be alive. Her corpse was still in Rennes-le-Château, and what remained of her seemed to have been split between Nephilim and KOS-MOS, who had her own artificial intelligence running at the same time. Unless someone had managed to pluck Mary from the past, before they failed, and place her here for some reason, he shouldn't be seeing her.
Whether this was an illusion or not was difficult to tell. But chaos did know that..a feat like going through time and pulling someone like Mary from one point to the next was something even Wilhelm couldn't do. Or, at the very least, he couldn't do so without going against his own goals.
But, illusion or not, she was here, and it looked like she needed help just as much as he needed some answers. So, he did his best to force himself to snap out of it and, still feeling like he was in a dream, gave his beloved an aching, bittersweet smile as he slowly walked towards her, squatted in front of her, and tried to hold her hands as they squeezed her ears.
"Mary..it's..it's going to be alright, I think. It's loud and annoying, but it's just an alarm. If we keep going together, we may find the password that can shut it off. But..how..how are you still alive? How have you come back to us, my dear?"
