A/N: -    Hiyaz! My show is coming up really soon so don't expect updates too often, though I will do my best!!!!!!!! Okies, well, enjoy!!! And don't forget to review afterwards!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    "P…p…punished?" stammered Dory. The officers nodded sharply, turned on their tails, and left.

"I'm sure it can't be that bad…and if it is, then I…I..."

"You'll beat the army up single-handed, won't you Dad?" Nemo finished his father's sentence.

"You will?" Dory asked hopefully.

"Umm…"

"Oh c'mon, Dad!! You took on three sharks!"

"With Dory's help and only one of them was trying to get us!"

"And the jellies?" Dory pointed out.

"Yeah, but…………oh, I dunno!!!!"

    They heard ferocious snarling as they made their way home. They began sneaking around to find out what it was. There was nothing there and they dismissed it to their weariness.

    The coral drums were banging loudly as Dory swam up onto the platform. They were using the schoolyard and all the children were hiding behind Mr. Ray…well, all except for Nemo. He didn't want to miss a moment.

"Private Dory," the general read aloud in a sickly sweet voice. She was a yellow tang, like Bubbles, who rather fancied her!! He was denying it but, seeing as he was drooling and staring at the fish in question, no-one believed him

    Dory had been ill all night. Marlin  had stayed with her. It had almost broken his heart to see her in such a state; she was usually so bright and cheerful, but this time she had been vomiting repeatedly and screaming in her sleep for most of the night. Nothing marlin had done seemed to help.

    Dory was now clutching the fins of him and Nemo, trying to draw at least a little comfort from having them with her.

"Private Dory, you have been summoned here today to be punished for violating rule number 17, of section 76, under clause 9: - 'Any member of the army must remain neutral in battles or prison camp situations, regardless of circumstances . Anyone caught siding with prisoners will hereby be punished in a way that will most damage them,'" the general paused, "you are hereby thrown out of the army and must be placed in solitary confinement for 7 days."

    Dory's eyes were overflowing with tears. She was going to forget everything and everyone. She was dragged off to a cave and guards were stationed in the surrounding areas so no-one could see or talk to her.

   The 7 days passed and, bit by bit, Dory forgot everything. She even forgot Marlin. Many fish tried to get into the cave but all of them were promptly caught and thrown off site.

     After the 7 days were up, Dory was let out of the cave and she swam back to the reef. She had no idea where she was, why she was there or what had just happened.

"Dory?" Marlin swallowed, tapping her lightly with his fin to get her attention.

"Who, in the name of Neptune, are you?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!"
