... what happened?

[ Guess who's finally awake! And also staring and blinking at that Ninetails staring back at her. Preeeetty sure that's not her pokemon. Bell, on the other hand, is chirping happily and flying around in circles. There's a roar outside. Despite all this noise, Xion notices the seashell by her pillow and picks it up, staring.

Still, despite not knowing what happened, Xion's staring at her hands, then uses her free hand to pat her face. ]

Is this real...?

Work... Right. I should try some of that after I've recovered.

All the work we're allowed to do is rather simple, and I think they have adapted schedules for teenagers.

That's good, although, I'd have to check with Roxas on how long we plan to stay in Olivine.

It'll be fine as long as you stay five or more days. Less than that, and the officers tend to be upset.

Ah, I see. I'll keep that in mind.

How have you been doing, Cecil?

I've been doing quite well, thank you. Now that three of my Pokémon know Fly, I've been able to travel quickly as needed.

Fly?

It's an attack certain Pokémon can learn after earning the badge in Cianwood. It gives them the strength to fly long distances with human riders.

That's useful. Although, it'd probably be a really long while before I can have any of my pokemon do that... [ Also need to find a pokemon that can learn that. ]

It might not take much time if someone leands you the HM, but the badge from Violet is also necessary to make it work properly, for some reason.

[For trainers, at least.]

Why's that?

...I have no idea. Some parts of this world still make little sense to me.

[ Smiles a little, despite. ] You still know a lot more than I do, Cecil. You've been a big help.

I'm glad I can be that much, at least. It'd be a shame not to have any knowledge to share after nearly ten months.

Almost a year, huh?

Almost. What a strange anniversary it'll be.

How so?

A year spent training young monsters and working as a shop clerk or a receptionist, with no attempts to destroy the world in the meantime. It's quite different from home.

[ Blinks. ] Your home was going to be destroyed...?

It's not the first time, but I do hope it'll be the last, at least in my lifetime.

And you saved your home each time it was threatened? That's amazing.

I certainly hope it'll be each time...

[He... hasn't quite reached the 'final boss defeated, everyone goes home' point yet, to his great worry.]

Hm? [ She wonders about his expression on that. ]

...We were almost there, but not quite, when I was brought here.

[...He thinks they were almost there, at least.]

There... in saving the world?
