Ga fight 044 is waiting for alita at the train station. He tells her that they've been running around for seven hours trying to catch up to her, and now it's her turn to show off her fighting skills. Ga says that he's just been dancing with zalem all along, and that he wants to know if he can be the real deal. He feels like a "night mare" . He says that if he fights her and wins, he'll be able to "make her the Imita tion" , but if he loses, he won't know what to do with himself. He can't believe that alita is going to destroy him. He's been living in the "wilderness" of the world for ten years, and he'd never met her in person. He wonders why anyone would want to kill her on behalf of a "surface dweller," and he wonders if she's the same "angel of death" that struck him so violently
