The girl in the teddy bear hoodie could only stare at her friend with shock. "Oh. Wow...i had no idea." she said softly. And she thought her life sucked, Asper had it bad in a different way, one she couldn't even relate to.

She had watched many people die before, but they were all strangers, emotionally indifferent to her. Zhu-li couldn't imagine what she'd do if Joseph left her. Was that the pain Asper felt? The loss of a family. Maybe that's why the two could relate so well, mutual suffering and support?

"Showtime dude! Let's round up those two and get moving!" she smacked Kinaver across the back to get him up and searched for her teammates, spotting them apparently in deep conversation at a far table and waltzing over.

She led the team outside and past the crater she made earlier, ignoring it as she walked to a VPD squad van parked nearby. Getting in was difficult, as she struggled to load her massive weapon in the back. When she was done, the shield alone took up most of the van's seating space.

The team could still fit inside, but the journey would be cramped and uncomfortable for everyone.
