Ironhide!

[Lottie, in full Center uniform, comes in as soon as she sees his message]

Y'okay! Thank th'Lord.

[He looks absolutely surprised to see her. And thus, she receives a long, confused stare before he remembers he should say something.]

I... am?

[Lottie is totally unfazed and just a fluttering, flustered mess right now]

Yes! Y'went t'sleep a few days ago an' y'didn' wake up f'r nothin'. I even brought Cordon in here t'see if his pokin' could wake y'up. Nothin'. Cliff's been a right mess, y'know, an' some'a th'nurses were startin' t'worry.

[Lottie was already worrying[

I... days?

[It was three years, as far as he knew. She earns another long, absolutely confused stare, before he drops his gaze, rather suddenly.]

Stop worrying. Nothing wrong.

[... Yeah, guess who didn't actually know Ironhide was out? She's been a little wrapped up with her own personal baggage lately...]

Out?

Did the nurses give you tranquilizers or something to stop you from marching out of the Center?

[... Yep. No idea.]

No.

Went... something happened. Was back.

[Back home. Back with the others.]

It was three years.

[He doesn't elaborate. He's not really sure how to.]

The last transmission I saw from you was 24 days ago... I can't help more than that, I'm really sorry.

I don't know what happened, but if you were unconscious or sent back, please take some time to rest.

Twenty... no. That is not right. I was gone years--

'Sent back'?

Sometimes Johto sends people back to their worlds...

They fall asleep here, for about a week or maybe a little more. However in their worlds, much more time may pass.

[ Cliffjumper hasn't gone far. In fact, he hasn't strayed far from the Center since Ironhide fell unconscious. Now he comes jogging into the room- it's clear his ankle is better- Rascal at his heels. ]

Ironhide!

[Once again, Ironhide looks stunned to see him. It's been three years for him.]

[This time, though, he can't quite find the words.]

[ The look on Ironhide's face make Cliff stop in his tracks ]

What's wrong?

[He lifts his hands, rubbing at his face. The old scar is still there -- the one across his eye. Everything... is still there.]

Went... back. I think.

Yeah. I am.

Was I out long?

[To his credit, he tries to act normal for the little kid.]

Fine.

[That is a blatant lie.]
