*someone is now seven years old and has just woken up after nearly choking to death on tainted candy in a strange place with no recollection of how she got there. For now, she's wearing an oversized hospital gown, regardless what the icons show*

Mom?

...Daddy?

How long have you been here?

[missmiracle_gro]

I dunno. Maybe ten or five minutes? I woke up in... *pointing to the hospital* there.

[parasol_hero]

[okay that rules out you being a new arrival]

Alright, first of all, you're probably going to be stuck here for a few days, and I hate to say it, but your parents aren't around here. Second of all, there are a lot of people here who will help look after and protect you until you're able to leave.

[missmiracle_gro]

S-stuck? No, that's not true! My daddy'll never leave me alone like that!

[parasol_hero]

I'm sure he's doing everything he can to get to you, but this place doesn't always let people in.

[missmiracle_gro]

So. S-somebody locked the door?

[parasol_hero]

In a manner of speaking, yes. But please don't worry. I, the Hero Rosalyn, and other upstanding citizens of camp will make sure you'll be just fine.

[missmiracle_gro]

M-maybe Daddy's looking for the key. Why's everyone standing up, Miss Hero?

[parasol_hero]

You know, I bet you're right! They're standing up because they can't sit down when there's good deeds and justice to be done!

[missmiracle_gro]

He's the smartest man in the world! *looking around again* Oooh. So, everybody's a policeman.

[parasol_hero]

Then I'm sure he'll find the key. Well, not exactly a policeman, but I guess a Hero isn't all that different from one.

[missmiracle_gro]

Yeah. He'll come get me really soon. So heroes're good guys, huh?

[parasol_hero]

Yes, they are! We fight evil, combat injustice and work to keep everyone safe!

[missmiracle_gro]

...So why're there heroes at a Brownie camp?

[parasol_hero]

Because there are times when everyone needs a Hero, even desserts!

[missmiracle_gro]

*giggling* I can hero desserts!
