SoltyRei

Times are tough after the Blast Fall, an unexplained explosion that killed thousands and left countless maimed. Roy Revant is alone in the broken city, his daughter missing ever since the violent event and his wife was taken by cancer. He spends his dark days as a bounty hunter, with one eye looking down the barrel of a gun and the other scanning for clues about his vanished family. It's a cozy rut for a man with no future...Until one day a girl falls from the sky at just the right moment. She's lost like Roy, but otherwise very different. And she just might be more trouble than she's worth.

The bounty hunter game is a ruthless one, and walking around with your head in the clouds will get it taken off by a bullet. Roy has things on his mind, but it's hard to think with a Resemble orphan always under foot. The mystery of Solty's origins becomes becomes a little cloudier when RUC Elite Sqad comes knocking. They suspect the odd little girl of industrial espionage. Roy may be starting to care about Solty in spite of himself, but nothing is going to change the fact that something isn't right about her.

Much to Roy's chagrin, Solty is doing her best to fit into her new life. She's full of questions about the world around her, but with no answers of her own regards to her quirks or her lack of a past. When Roy takes a job escorting a sensitive package across town, an infamous band of theives go ballistic to cut through the defenses set up to ensure safe delivery. Make no matter... Once again, Solty's uncanny abilities prove shocking. After a physical scan at the hospital, it's quickly becoming apparent that Solty is something special.

After the Blast Fall, Resembles are everywhere, of which Solty is discovered to be a very unique model. Where did she come from? Or is it... Who made her? Science may call her a machine, but her emotions are as humanas they come. Curiosity and compassion carry her across town with a dangerous Resemble in the sewer, Solty explores some new human traits: the pangs of loss and loneliness. The RUC seems privy to information regarding all of the stronger Resembles that are turning up late...and now Solty is on their radar.

Roy and his crew attempt to unwind around the pool but when the bevy of bathing beauties around the water include a known theif and a handful of members from the RUC Security Force, rest and relaxation might have to wait. A priceless gem has been stolen, and when news of the stone's value makes its way around the pool, suddenly everybody is back on the clock. It's every girl for herself, and Solty is stuck in the middle.

Roy gets a tip that might lead to his missing daughter, but the path dead-ends in that grey area where good men make bad choices. Resemble hardware doesn't come cheap and neither does redemption. Sometimes looking across the line that divides right and wrong is like looking in a mirror. When Roy and Solty confront a thief with a previously clean record, it may prove easier to symphathize than condemn one caught in a desperate situation.
