Hearing the request to open the gates back up, Marcus sighed quietly to himself. He said nothing to his leader as he reestablished the connection between the metal and himself and opened up the gates. Due to how quickly she was approaching him, the gate keeper began to open the gates as quick as he could, hoping that she wouldn't hit the gates on her way out. Much to his surprise, she had stopped when she got near to him, and gave him more orders. He made a note to pass on what Ravenia had told him on to Shay, and watched his leader speed away from Paradise. He knew it was wrong to doubt her, but he still hoped that she would get back safely.

He was perfectly happy with his job as the gate keeper. He wasn't much of a fighter, and while he could deal some damage with his arm attachments, his preferred doing what he could from the city. If that meant tuning up vehicles to cause as much damage as physically possible, or making the gate as sturdy as possible, he was more than happy to do it. He did what he could to help from where he was, and wasn't one to go out into the red waste like his leader, even before he became the gate keeper. He liked helping Shay use the jet simulators, watching the city from the gates, and so many other things.

As he heard the voice of one of his friends, Marcus turned around and faced the city. He knew that voice well, and thought just how odd it was that she was calling out to him not long after The Raven given him his orders. He watched as Shay and Sun were running towards him. He smiled at the two of them and their closeness and glanced at the open gate. Once Shay was close enough, he spoke to her. "Shay, Ravenia wants you to take up a solar car and head out into the waste. She said that she's going to need a ride." He said simply, hoping that she would be able to understand what their leader meant by that. He didn't fully understand what she was saying, but he understood it enough.
