<em>My name... she asked my name...</em>Kaneda stood stunned for a moment, and in his hesitation, Kaito made it to the ground. Looking back before speaking, Kaneda saw Kaito running for the bus, and nearly turned to join him before he felt someone take his arm. Warmth hit his cheeks when he realized it was Kahlan. "I'm Kaneda. Kaneda Asagiri." Despite the warmth in his cheeks, the words felt hollow as he spoke them. "Yeah..." he  turns his head towards the fire escape, "They're almost down."<br/><br/>As Nozomi and Damon make their way down the lower ladder, Kaneda looks over towards the bus, to find Kaito bringing his bat to bear against a couple of the creatures that had wondered in from the open gate. A dark and almost dazed look covers his face as he considers all around him. He hears Nozomi's question, “Where’s Kaito?” and even responds, "Securing the bus," nodding in that direction, but he doesn't feel there...<br/><br/>The noise of rushed steps, and shuffling from behind, snaps Kaneda out of his haze. "We need to join him, that's our ticket out of here!" Grabbing Kahlan by the hand, he takes off running towards the bus, hoping to outrun the gathering mass behind them. "HURRY!" He shouts back over his shoulder to his his companions.
