They all walk into Tazmily "Everything is so different!" Pollyanna exclaims at the scene.
There were paved roads instead of modest dirt trails. The bell tower was gone. The sunflowers she had planted with the twins gone"I tried to keep them as long as I could." Lucas said when he followed her gaze.
"Come on We need to buy a weapon for me." He said
"Buy? I never heard of the term buy. Is it like goodbye?"
"No, Purchase. With money."
"What's money?" She had never heard of Money before. From what she remembers Everyone shared everything.
Lucas dug into his pocket and pulled out several slips of Paper.
"It's also called DP."
"It's like stationary but you don't write on it." Duster explained.
"Fascinating." She says.
Sorry Sorry I'm so sorry.
Why do you do that when I don't understand something?
Couldn't help. Had to. We're sorry.
What are you talking about?!
We can't say
Unbelievable
"Are you coming?" Kumatora asks walking towards what Pollyanna swore used to be Thomas's Bazaar. Speaking of which Thomas was right there behind the counter.
But instead of a colourful firefighter outfit that happily scurried around the Trio when they were found 3 years ago, she saw a man in a regular attire, A brown shirt.
No awesome hat and no greeting. There was no weapons that Lucas could use so then Lucas had an Idea. "How about we go to the one place that stayed the same."
Pollyanna's eyes widen as she hoped for the best.
"Home." But it had no smile, like he didn't want to go.
"Are you alright, Lucas?" Duster placed his calloused hand on Lucas's shoulder and the two girls looked worriedly at him. "Yeah.. Let's go." He says. He walks past Pollyanna and grabs her wrist. She is concerned. "Lucas, Did home change?"
"No."
"Then why do you sound upset?"
"I'm not." He says.
Kumatora walks in front of the pair. "You really do."
"Can we just walk?" He asks.
"Lucas. What's wrong with home?"
"It isn't home!" he snaps.
Duster pieces it together as Lucas is about to breakdown.
"You don't have to talk about it, alright?"
The boy nods, knowing that it wasn't intentional, the way that they accidentally made him feel. "Sorry." Pollyanna says, now knowing that he felt the exact same loneliness she had felt.
"Don't be. You are back now. Lets go find me a better weapon." he mocks a slash with his stick.
At their house
They creak open the door.
"Shh Dad's asleep."
"But it only just became noon He is usually up earlier." Duster says
"People change too." Flint became a mess after the trio was separated, so caught up in looking for them, he kinda forgot about Lucas. He began to lose hope once it had been a year. Pollyanna hugs him and they walk into the room they shared.
"Ahh One familiar structure." She sits on her bed which went unchanged.
Lucas walked over to his Bed and pulled out the Special Box.
It's a box that all three of them have put their valuables in it.
On the front, there are three signatures in blue crayon.
One neatly yet scribbly Lucas Ryuka
One really neat and straight. Pollyanna 'I have no idea what my last name is'
and one barely legible Claus Ryuka,
Lucas felt the signature and looked at Pollyanna, who began to dig through it.
Can she still write?
He shakes off the fact that she's disabled .
"Hey look at this"
Kumatora and Duster kneel down to the kids and the former picks up a baseball bat. In the end had the initials CR edged in it. "How about this?" She held the bat to Lucas.
"Claus's old bat.."
Aww.. Memory Lane...
