"Where, where am I?" Kentaro asked the two of them, who in which turn their heads at him when he had responded to them.

"Tokyo, we had to airlift you out of Kazakhstan" Verdugo explained shortly to the young man.

"What happened?" Kentaro questioned, dazed from the events that led him to here.

"Uh, everything at the reactor plant, it, it went terribly wrong" Verdugo struggled to responded, not knowing exactly what to tell him.

"What does that mean?"

"Shaw, he imploded the rifts, and, the whole thing collapsed in on itself" Tim told Kentaro sadly.

"Then the locals showed up, I'm lucky I didn't end up in a Kazak prison"

"A lot of good people didn't make it out" Verdugo jumped in.

"Shaw, May" Tim said as he told Kentaro of the Kentaro of the ones who didn't make it out of the plant in time but furnished off, letting Kentaro realize the rest.

"Cate, Bill" Kentaro realized heartbroken, that his siblings died there, he felt powerless, hopeless.

"I'm sorry"

Kentaro shakes his head, struggling to come to the terms of the situation he is now in, tying not believe that they're all gone. "Okay, so where do we start looking for them?"

Verdugo went up to the young man, sympathetic for his losses. "Kentaro, they didn't make it"

"We finish Shaw's-"

"Lee Shaw, died doing what he loved, pouring gasoline on fires he didn't understand, he augmented a moment of global crisis for this organization, that we have barley begin dealing with, and he got your brother, sister and friend killed doing it, I'm sorry Kentaro, thank you for your help, but your time in a world had come to an end"

Verdugo begins to walk off to give the young man a space to grieve, but she drops when he calls back. "Wait, wait, no, they ca-...., they're my family, there has to be something I can do, something we can do"

Both adults stay quiet but Verdugo speaks up. "There is, live". Verdugo encouraged the man before exiting the room.
