Adrianna: How long until we get there, Issy? *drives into another lane*
Isabelle: Just take the next exit and we'll be there in just an hour.
Laura: I'm sleepy... I can't wait that long... *yawns* Aaauughhh...
Gumball: Where are we right now?
Isabelle: We're at the Bermuda Dunes now. We're a few towns away from Elmore.
Gumball: Elmore?
Isabelle: Yep! First thing's first... Those kids were from Elmore Junior High, right?
Gumball: Yeah?
Isabelle: We're gonna stop at Elmore first, and then we head to Cleveland.
Adrianna: For what?
Isabelle: We're gonna bring Gumball back to his family.
Gumball: Wha- *eyes widen and turns around looking at her* Are you serious?
Isabelle: I'm dead serious. You're going home for real this time. *smiles at him*
Adrianna: Sooo, straight to Elmore?
Isabelle: Straight to Elmore!
Gumball: Ah- Isabelle- I-I- Why? *tears fill up his eyes and voice starts breaking* Wh-Wh-Why??
Isabelle: You wanted to go back to your family, so we're taking you!
Gumball: Y-You're- *hicc* Isabeeellle...!! *covers his face with his hands and sobs gently* Ahuh-huh-huh-huh-huhhhh... *hicc*
Adrianna: Oh God, not the waterworks again! I don't want snot on my seats!
Isabelle: Uhhh, are you happy??
Gumball: I-I am happy! *hicc* But at the same time I-I'm nervous and scared!! *hicc*
Adrianna: Nervous? It won't be too bad seeing your family, bro!
Gumball: I- *hicc* I know, but- *sniffles and wipes his runny nose* H-How will they react...?
Laura: I'm sure they'll be happy that you've came back!
Gumball: But Isabelle... *sniff* I haven't seen them for six years...
*small silence*

It's been six years and I know that there's gonna be a lot of stuff that's changed... But what if they're not there because the government kicked them out...? What if they're incarcerated? What if... What if-

Adrianna: Relax, Gumball! You said your family isn't that high on budget, right?
Gumball: Y-Yeah... *sniff*
Adrianna: I bet they didn't move away! They're still in their houses! People can't move away because this whole I.A.A.N. thing is going on!
Gumball: Really...?
Adrianna: Yes, really! I'm sure the reunion will go well! It's only an hour before we get there, so you can rest your brain and prepare when we get there! *smiles happily at him*
Gumball: A-Alright... *sniffles and wipes his tears* I'll try my best... I know that they'll be there... *smiles a bit*
Laura: I'll be by your side when you get there!
Adrianna: Laura, I'd think it'd be best if we wait in the car while he does it. After all, his family might think we're strangers that messed around with him.
Laura: Okaaay. *sighs and lays down on the floor* I'm gonna sleep...
Gumball: Me too... *pushes the seat back and lays down* Good night, girls...
Adrianna: Night night, Gumball.
Isabelle: Good night!
Laura: Good night, Gumball!

Tomorrow is the day I get to be with them again... I'm hoping that they are still gonna be there even after all those years... And I'm sure they'll remember me...

The next morning...

Gumball: Mmm... *flips over and snores*
Adrianna: *turns around and sees him sleeping* We're just a few miles away from the neighborhoods.
Isabelle: We're at Elmore now?
Adrianna: Yep. But we don't know which house is Gumball's house.
Laura: *pulls herself up and yawns* Are we there yet...?
Adrianna: Almost. 
Gumball: Mmm... *rubs his eyes and groans* Uuuuhhh... *pulls himself up*
Isabelle: Good morning, Gumball! Or good afternoon!
Gumball: Morning... Isabelle... *stretches and groans loudly* Hnnnnguuuuhhh...! *sighs relaxingly* Are we there yet?
Adrianna: An hour away from Elmore.
Gumball: *blinks in confusion* Uh... Was I dreaming?
Adrianna: Haha, I'm just messing with you! We're a few minutes away!
Gumball: A few minutes away... *realizes that he's close to Elmore* A-A FEW MINUTES AWAY?! *shakes his head and rubs his eyes* We're here already?!
Laura: Seems like we are. *looks outside at the windshield* We're close to a neighborhood.
Gumball: *looks at the windshield and sees the neighborhood* Oh gosh... I'm not ready...
