Persephone left her room for her shift in the food department. As she entered the elevator Mars and Jump ran in before the door closed. They were two of Mouse's friends. They went down in silence but when she got out at her stop they followed her out.
"You guys don't have a shift down here." She told them.
"We know." Jump said.
"So what are you doing?" she asked again.
"We want to talk."
"About?" she asked Jump.
"Azula and Sting came up to us and we think we should talk about-"
"Stop right there Mars there is nothing to talk about when it comes to Mouse. You want to talk about dead people go to Tank's family. Have you seen Zee and their poor kids?"
"Yeah their all crying their eyes out."
"Well sorry that I am not an emotional sissy." Persephone snapped.
"Your friends feel that you're suppressing some really bad emotions." Persephone chuckled and started moving some cans of food off a shelf to another shelf across from the original.
"Yeah sure," She stopped working, "just out of curiosity what emotions am I suppressing exactly?"
"Umm well-" Mars started, "you're depressed and sad."
"I know that. Of course I'm sad. You think I like people dying?"
"No of course not, it's just we've all cried and we're worried about what you might be holding back." Persephone rolled her eyes. "We know you to had a special connection-"
"Why does everyone think that? No we didn't! I don't know what we came off as but I promise you we were not what everyone thinks!"Persephone was screaming and several people around turned to look at her. "Leave me alone." She spat and turned to finish her tedious task.
