Melissa and Amina congregate in the common area with their children, who were helped into their positions by hospital aides pushing them in wheelchairs. The jackalope’s there as well with Gizmo, checking on Echo’s condition. Coming to unite with the band are Cat and Candy, who get beside their boyfriends to comfort. Echo and Firework’s friends from school have come to see them as well; Preston, Hammy, and Hayley all greet them, glad to see their buddies are okay.\nThe imp appears on the table out of nowhere. “Hey, ya’ll! Igor’s here! What I miss?” He notices the kids in the wheelchairs. “Well, I see you two are mobile now. I can’t believe they would treat a robot in the hospital, though. Do they hire anyone to help patients? If so, what kind of mental problems do they have?”\n“We treat Echo as a real living thing,” Melissa tells him. “My dad has ordered the hospital staff to do this while bringing in some engineers to help fix him.”\n“I’m feeling quite better than I was before,” says Echo with a smile and green colors. “I thank Master Jack for that.”\n“Firework getting better, too,” adds Firework. “Firework not feeling much pain.”\nJoining the group now are Zach and his team, followed by the chicken and the warthog, who hold cups of coffee and hot beverages in their grasps.\nEmma’s eyes widen as Zach finishes his story to them. “Really, Zach? That’s how they saw you in Heroto?” \n“Man, that was awful how they treated you there,” Winnie butts in. “I feel bad.”\n“Don’t be,” the fox says. “I defected Heroto because I couldn’t stand being bullied and labeled anymore. That’s how I met my girlfriend and family in Buscity, though. I’ve got it better than staying there in that awful town.” He turns forward and gets a huge greeting from his family. “Hey!” Zach gives them a smile. “It’s so good to see everyone!” He then turns to the kids. “Echo, Firework, I’m happy you two are doing fine. How are you both feeling?” They respond with “okay” and “doing better.” “Well, good to hear. Hey, I was at Pawbucks with my crew here, when I saw these and thought of you.” He holds up a brown, paper bag in front of them. “Cinnamon buns, cookies, and brownies!” The robot and dragon’s smiles grow bigger, showing their teeth as a sign of extreme glee. Their friends become excited as well.\n“Ugh, Zach,” Melissa starts. “You had to buy them sugar?”\n“Why not? I care for my kids, don’t I?”\n“We want to make sure they’re healthy, not spoil them with junk.”\n“Says the rabbit girl who ordered pizza because she was tired.” Everyone chuckles. Melissa smirks and points at him, telling him he’s got her there.\n“Good one,” comments the chicken, smiling. Melissa and Amina question why she’s with the group. “Because Zach has turned me around and taught me the importance to learn about someone before making assumptions.” \n“So,” Firework start. “Chicken and Zach friends now?”\n“Yeah,” answers Winnie. “After what we’ve been through, guess that means we’re friends.”\n“Not other animals, though… So much hate… Why others judge each other?” Echo puts his hand on the dragon’s back, blue to share his feelings. The other kids all wonder why as well.\n“Because everyone’s afraid,” Emma points out. “They don’t like when something is different than them. But changes rapidly happen, yet no one wants to adapt to them.”\n“The first thing people see is someone’s species, color, beliefs, first impressions, or what they do and they are quick to make assumptions,” adds Winnie. “What’s worse, they apply what one individual does to a whole group. It’s called being bias.”\n“Not everyone is open to learn and tolerate each other,” Jack implies. “In the world we live in, a lot of people are cynical and only care about themselves. When they see something that’s not like them, they become uncomfortable and are quick to do whatever to get rid of it. Sorry if this is making you uncomfortable, Zach.”\nZach raises his paw to him. “No, it’s okay. Even though I still have nightmares and terrors, I’m not living in hell anymore. I don’t have to worry about it too much. And, I’m glad because I now have my new family to look after.” Melissa, Amina, Echo, and Firework smile at him. “Though, I wonder what’s going on in Heroto now.”\n“Not much has changed,” Leon tells him. “Riots are still happening and peacekeepers are attempting to maintain order. It’s pretty hectic over there from what I’ve learned… I’ll let you know when there’s more updates. However, it’s likely the town will have sanctions in place. It’s most likely because Team Rescuers have influenced everyone of Heroto to side with them. However, we have knowledge that your case is not the only one, Zach. There are many others who have been abused by Team Rescuers and Heroto. We’re looking into them, but it’s going to take time.” He then addresses the kids, and everyone, to teach a lesson. “Anyway, judging others based on just their appearance, their health, their first impressions, or their history without knowing all the details is never really a good idea. It’s like judging a book by it’s cover; you shouldn’t do that until you know the full story, then you can make a decision.”\n“The key to combat all of that is education,” Amina adds. “Learning will help shape the world into a better place and ensure peace is in order. It’s just a shame most of the older ones do not change, and we must cope with them.”\n“We just have to be careful,” Melissa joins in. “People are dangerous, and mentally crazy. They will do whatever to convince people they are right or get their way. Best to just ignore them, unless they go over the top with something stupid like kill or attack. When are we going to stop doing this to each other…?” Everyone slowly move their heads toward the front, looking at you, the viewer.\n","writing_bbcode_parsed":"Back at the hospital, some of the task force peacekeepers return to check on the condition of the patients involved in the explosion at Furton Park.
