[cascadedwater]

.... geez, that was was a weird dream. I could've sworn that -- [wait a minute.] oh. I guess I'm in Mayfield again, aren't I?

Is everyone alright? Ash, Dawn? Are you guys still here?

[noneed_2worry]

...Misty?

[cascadedwater]

Dawn! So you're still here?

[noneed_2worry]

Yeah, still here.

[cascadedwater]

Oh. I didn't... miss anything, did I?

[likescats]

....

YOU'RE BACK TO NORMAL....

[Skeletal man is sitting at the table.]

[cascadedwater]

Yeah... I didn't do anything weird, did I?

[likescats]

YOU ACTED LIKE A NORMAL DRONE.

.....IT'S NICE TO SEE YOU NORMAL AGAIN.

[cascadedwater]

... er, I see.

[10_year_old_kid]

MISTY!!

You're alright!

[cascadedwater]

What do you mean by that?

[10_year_old_kid]

Well, you've been droned for over two weeks?

[cascadedwater]

... other than that.

[ ... ] I mean, did I do anything weird?

[he recognizes that voice and, wouldn't you know it, it sounds the same as it did three years ago. how strange.]

Misty?

[cascadedwater]

.... yeah?

[hispalette]

They got you, too? How could they kidnap a gym leader?

[cascadedwater]

Um..., do I know you?

[bread_goes_bip]

[Death encounters Misty in passing through the house and notices she's suddenly acting... rather non-dronish]

Oh, hello. I don't think we've properly met.

[cascadedwater]

Er... you're the new 'mom', right?

[bread_goes_bip]

Yeah, that's what the town seems to have decided.
