Little Ivy used one vine to grab the tote bag on the river and Poddie with the other. She pulled them to Yang Zhang's side, and Yang Zhang hugged Poddie first.
"PODDIE!"
"PII! PIII!"
Yang Zhang checked Poddie's body, afraid that the little guy was hurt somewhere, "Are you okay? Did you get hurt somewhere?" He asked.
"Pii!" Poddie replied, ensuring Yang Zhang that he was alright.
"Poddie…" Yang Zhang also saw his pets who surrounded him. He embraced them all for one big hug.
"I will never let you guys get hurt. You're all my friends in this difficult apocalypse world," Yang Zhang said.
"Vii!"
"Squeak!"
"Chirp! Chirp!"
"Pii! Pii!"

After the big warm hug, Yang Zhang asked Little Ivy to bring them down, and Yang Zhang carried the now-soaked tote bag and his pets that hid inside his pocket and sleeve.
He walked to the hut that he missed so much, even though it was just two days since the last time he left this place.
