"Say something to her." FB told Daniel as he sat there near Shizuka.

He nodded. "Uhh...Jojo, I'm sorry we weren't able to get your dad back."

She sighed. "Yeah, me too. We weren't strong enough, but I won't give up just yet. The SPW was after this Hamon master, maybe he can help us against them."

"I sure hope so." Danny said.

She looked up at him. "Oh, I forgot to mention but thanks for saving me back at the vault."

"No need to mention it, you saved me in the hangar. We're even." Danny replied.

She looked out one of the plane's windows. "I felt terrible when Halim stayed back to let us escape, I wasn't going to let you do the same."

Danny wanted to say that Halim would be okay, but he wasn't so sure. After all they did in the Rho Facility, Halim was likely dead by now. "It's not your fault, it was his decision to sacrifice himself."

"You know, he told me that his mother once tried to kill my dad. He always felt bad about that and wanted to make it up to him. Now he's sacrificed himself to save me. He's more than made it up." Shizuka said. She looked back at the file. "He's one more reason we need to take down the bastards responsible. I won't let them keep getting away with it."

Daniel nodded. "I'll stand beside you all the way. I'm sure Marcus will too." He didn't mention Apollo since they hardly knew the former prisoner. He might've been their ally during the escape but they didn't know if he was going to stick around until the end.

She smiled. "Thanks, I appreciate it."

"It's what friends are for." Danny said. After a pause he blushed and thought. ''Wait damn it...that was dumb. Why did I just mention friendship...I don't want us to just be friends. Why did I even mention Marcus...I..I messed up.''

FB chuckled and said to him. "You did fine, Danny. Don't overthink things."
