Cho was concerned for Mikami. She shouldn’t have left him alone… then again, she knew that he would be able to handle the situation on his own. Her gaze flicked over the rest of the Blues that had gathered there, making sure that they were following her. The look that she gave them was not filled with the sort of friendliness that she offered back at the headquarters. Now was not the time for carefree smiles and voices filled with happiness. Mikami had left her in charge of the group of officers, and she was taking her job seriously. For if she messed up… she didn’t know if she could forgive herself.

Just as she was made her way down the street, someone approached her. It was a young man about her age, maybe a little older. He called her “cutie” and began to question her. Her sharp, amber gaze settled on him, dull and serious. Cho didn’t know who the stranger was or what his intentions were. His face was one of innocence, yet she had her guard up. [b]”Who the hell are you?”[/b] she asked him, her hand trailing down to her saber. She would pull it out in an instant if it she had to. [b]”And an [i]explosion[/i] happened. Can’t you see?”[/b] With her free hand, she waved to the area behind her. Her eyes remained focused on him. 

The stranger was asked if he could help, and Cho shook her head in reply. [b]”We’ve done everything we can, so far.”[/b] she explained dryly. [b]”There isn’t anything else to do. The injured have successfully been loaded onto ambulances and the people have been cleared out.”[/b] The officers behind her seemed to be getting impatient as they waited for her, but she ignored them for now. It was rare that a civilian was offering to help. Once she found out his intentions, her hand released its grip on the hilt of her sword and lowered it to her side. 

[b]”I didn’t expect a civilian to come up to me and ask if I needed help.”[/b] Cho said, finally offering him a smile, albeit a small one. Now that she knew that he wasn’t a threat, she could finally relax a bit. [b]”Thank you for your offer, but we really have everything wrapped up already.”[/b]
