Lloyd has been living with June for about 7 months now.

"Hey Lloyd. Why don't we go to the city to pick up some groceries."

"Ok mom. Could we maybe also go to the movies."

Smiling June says "why don't we make a fun day out of it."

Lloyd jumps up in happiness. June laughs at Lloyds excitement.

Once they get into the city they first head for some lunch at Chen's noodle shop, then went to the Arcade for a few hours.

"How's your day so far dear."

Looking to his mom Lloyd say's happily "I am happy and having the best day ever."

"I am happy you are sweetie. Now should we go to the theater now."

"Yes mom"

The two get ready to head to the movie theater, but they then hear screaming. Then they see people run past them is a panic.

Grabbing June's hand Lloyd says "mom what is happening"

"I don't know sweetheart, but we need to get away."

June then picks Lloyd up and they start following the other civilians. As they are running Lloyd looks over June Shoulder he see's a large snake getting chased by the ninja.

Seeing the ninja all Lloyd could think about how much he wants to kill them, mostly Kai though.

Once they get to a safe spot June puts Lloyd down and he then looks around where he see's a young girl sitting in the corner.

Lloyd walks over to the girl saying "Hello"

Looking up with tears in her eye's says "Hello"

"What happened"

Crying more the girl said "my parents died in that building that just collapsed" she then pointed to a pile of rubble.

"I am sorry to hear that. Also could I give you a hug"

"Sure" Lloyd hugs the girl until she stopped crying.

Once she stopped crying Lloyd says "do you feel a bit better now"

"Yes thank you" the girl said as she wiped her tears.

"That's good. Could I ask what your name is please"

"My name is Harumi. Now what is your name"

"My name is Lloyd"

"Lloyd could I be your friend please"

"I would gladly be your friend Harumi"

The two sit there for a bit, while Lloyd still comforts Harumi.
