Without a goal, he floated aimlessly for a while and soon lost interest. Back at the base, he saw Maya busily writing and sketching in the command center. Approaching, Lin Wu saw Maya compiling a list: mosquito coils, rainproof tarps, power strips, shampoo, body wash, laundry detergent, and other daily necessities.
Maya gestured for Lin Wu to sit down and spoke to Shana through the headset, "I think we should start stockpiling living supplies now... Yes, I'm worried that Hardcore Mode will slowly turn our home into Waste City."
Closing off the headset, Maya said, "Cotton is here; go greet her."
"Okay." Lin Wu went downstairs to wait outside the south gate, and soon, Stone arrived driving the Highway Star, bringing Cotton along.
"Hey, Cotton, long time no see." Could this be Cotton? A bit prettier than he remembered, she was not outshone by Shana, except for the stiffness in her face.
