Lady Mu observed the action from the command station, glad something was happening after all that sandbag moving. Even so, Yue Fei seemed to be in more of a thoughtful mood than anything and so the readouts they were receiving were nothing new or terribly interesting. Except where they pertained to that--other woman. Lady Mu didn't realize she was scowling until she caught her reflection in a monitor and smoothed out her expression, if not her mood. That--interloper--had Yue Fei all sorts of curious and that wasn't good for anyone. She also hated the woman in a completely unprofessional manner as well. She shouldn't care at all. He had human avatars, in fact they wanted to know what readings they'd get if he used a human avatar to sate his more physical needs. If he even had physical needs.
It had taken the better part of a year for her to convince her bosses Yue Fei was, in fact, quite male. She didn't have any evidence what so ever to back that up, it just felt right. Maybe she just wanted Yue Fei to be male because then she'd have someone as lonely as--best not to go down that road right now. She shifted her gaze to the monitor displaying his view of the situation and forced herself not to scowl again when that Cory person appeared in his vision again. It was impossible to tell what he was actually looking at, Yue Fei had a nearly three hundred and sixty degree view and a three hundred and sixty degree perception of his surroundings. That was why his visual data was spread across half a dozen monitors. The Human brain just wasn't designed to see that much stuff at one time. Not like that anyway.
She could of course sit down and talk to Cory, tell her to stay away or something--but then she'd just want to see him more.
Yue Fei saw the action at the bus and did the nearest thing the Yangtze could do to a run, which was sort of a momentum gaining ambling forward that saw the machine move at increasingly fast speeds not because it was good at running, but because it all that weight moving in one direction increased its speed over time. To use an American analogy it was rather like when a huge fat defensive lineman scooped up a dropped football and ran into the endzone. He would get faster (until he ran out of breath) out of sheer momentum.
The Yangtze did arrive at the bus eventually though and he tore the emergency exit door off as if it were made of paper. Tossing it aside Yue Fei put both hands inside the door frame and grabbed the bus to steady it. He drove huge spikes into the ground at his feet to anchor the mech itself and tried to work with Morgan to pull the bus back away from the edge. While he did this, he considered Cory's words about people and supposed they made sense. Everyone had something they thought was important, important enough to risk life and limb for, but not everyone's something was the same.
And some people were just stubborn.
