Yoriko was struggling with a huge recycling bin full of shredded paper in the station copy-room.

Natsumi walked up. "Can I help?"

"Please," Yoriko said. "Let's carry it to the freight elevator—"

"Why?" Natsumi asked. She effortlessly picked up the bin with her freakish strength— and emptied it through the nearest window.

Yoriko yelped. "The RECYCLING DUMPSTER is on the OTHER SIDE OF THE BUILDING!!"

                

The Chief stepped out of the station building— and into a blizzard of confetti and toner dust.

Either this is a surprise ticker-tape parade, the Chief thought, or else Natsumi's helping with the recycling again.
