[quote=@Galaxy Raider] I'm sorry? I mean, Data already had shown he wasn't afraid to do her harm if necessary. The smart thing to do would have been to not stick around. Besides, if you really need her that badly, there are ways to defend her that aren't breaking rules or using just what she is capable of. [/quote] This just seems like a bit much, and I thought data was above killing innocent children. Not only that, but shinji would hunt him down as long as he may live if she does die. Sera was his world, metaphorically. Not a smart move on his part, well, not entirely smart.
