'What's that smell? It smells nice and it's making me hungry.'

As I was getting out of bed, I smelt something I've only had a whiff of a few times.

Food getting cooked.

And it's morning so I assume it's what humans call breakfast. I got out of my bed, which was plain white all-around, and went downstairs as I had slept in the clothes I got when I... changed...

As I rounded the corner into what I think is a kitchen, a young buy was at a weird cooker with a metal skillet cooking something that was brown yet fluffy.

"Oh hey you're awake!" He called out to me as he noticed I had entered, stepping over and holding out his hand, "My name is Lucas. I assume that your Mesprit?"

Not knowing what to do, I just nod my head, which seemed enough for him as he realized I'm not used to human customs.

"That's nice, I've only seen you a couple of time but I never gave you a name did I?"

"Considering the circumstances on how we have met our multiple times, names were not as important as saving the world is it?"

"Well now that that's all over, it seems you have gotten into some more trouble? It's like bad luck follows you and your trio mates doesn't it?" As he said this, he went back to the skillet and flipped the brown fluffy things onto a plate which held a couple more.

I walked over to the table and sat down, at the same time, he gave a plate and put down two of those things and sat down with the other three.

"Bad luck to the three of us is something we've encountered many an era... What is this? Is it safe to eat?" I said, poking at the brown things, feeling their warm, fluffed up up texture.

"They're pancakes, and highly edible. Try it with some of this-" He put a small bottle of a weird sticky substance next to my plate."-it'll make it taste better."

I picked up the bottle, which had a nozzle for squeezing out the liquid, and let it drench out my pancakes, stopping once I assume there's enough; which to Lucas, was too much.

"Are you trying to drown your pancakes? That's way to much syrup." He then cut another piece of his pancakes and stuffed into his face, swallowing whole the piece. "You can eat it now but use a fork, you don't want your hands sticky." He handed over a fork, to which I took and cut a piece and put it in my mouth.

It was... alright I guess, I'm not a fan of the very sweet like Mew is but putting the syrup on probably made this less bland.

"If you want to know... Rowan told me to tell you this to you: He called the other professors and some other high-level people to help you out. Is that okay?"

Rowan told others'? I guess it's all right if they help, but if they double-cross me, it won't be like the last time humans have messed with me.

"That's... nice."

"I can tell you're not pleased but you should at least warm up to it. They'll get you back to normal in no time at all... hopefully."

"Joyous."

I may be a bit negative at the moment but wouldn't you if one of your big secrets got out by the person you trusted? I just hope that this all works out. Actually... I have a question...

"Lucas? Do they really believe that I am who I say I am? They could think I'm just some girl looking for attention. How did Rowan convince them?"

The young lab assistant shifted in his sit as I finished my question, as if trying to think of something to say. Coming off of him were anxious vibes. He wants to lie but he doesn't think it's right.

"Rowan had tested a strand of hair for DNA. It came back as a positive match to DNA files from... uhh..."
I raised my hand to stop him, I don't want those terrible memories to flood back in now. "You don't have to mention where, I know. This DNA, is it enough to convince these people who I am?"

"Yep-" He took a sip of... this weird orange liquid and continued,"-in the world of science, DNA is your identification and it tells us that you are who you say you are. But I do have one thing... are you actually female?"

"No, my original form had no bearings towards either gender; as so my siblings and most of the legends. This body form randomly picked what gender matched me most; that of a female."

"Wow, thanks for telling me... you know, you're not acting the way Rowan described yesterday."

"I'm tired, hungry and a bit miffed about something that has happened, after awhile I'll be normal."

After that, we ate in silence and finished before at least ten o'clock. At this point, I feel better...

"So Lucas, wanna show me around? I want to do... something."

"Sure, I'm guessing you're a bit more spirited now?"

I just nod, but I am a bit happier now that I have more energy.

As we walked to the end of the hallway, I heard, and presumably Lucas too, the front door to the lab open.
"You all may come in, I'm betting that the two of them had just finished breakfast."

"You know Luke, you should really think about remodeling, this place is a little crowded, don't you think?"

Oh, the professor brought some company. Is it those people he told?

As I listened in, I didn't notice Lucas stalk off around the corner and came back with Rowan in tow.

"Oh there you are Mesprit. May you come with me, I want to introduce you to the others' who will be assisting me."

"Sure. As long as they don't hurt me, I'll be fine with them around." I said, hoping that these people will help me out. I'm sure they're all so smart...

..I wonder how Uxie is doing...


Hey everyone, Cyanide here. Sorry for the long wait for an update, I broke my promise. Durr...

School for me is starting soon so the long time between chapters might get longer or shorter. Depends on how everything goes.

For now, I hope you enjoy your day.
