"Alright, no more fucking around," Pola stood up

"Alright, no more fucking around," Pola stood up. She wiped her mouth of sauce and curled her paws into fists, then stood on her toes to try and lean over Kayla. "We've had food, door's shut, everything. Start talkin'."

"Oh cut out that attitude. You're acting like I've committed a crime," Kayla turned away.

"There was a friggin' human, Kayla. A human! This close to RSE Academy. This is a literal emergency!" Pola threw her arms up.

"Keep shouting like that and the whole school's gonna find out," Kaya sighed and slumped. "I don't think they were close. If they followed us, we'd hear a ruckus by now."

"Oh just get to the point already!" Pola prodded her hard. "You promised you'd tell us!"

"Easy now, Pola. This isn't an interrogation," Ashe lightly pulled the Plusle back.

"I'm afraid I'm with Pola on this one, kinda," Kari said worriedly. "I dunno where that portal came from or if it'll be there again, but a human this close to RSE is pretty bad news."

"Look, I know that," Kayla replied, turning away again. Shannon was opposite the others and had an intense look on his face, even though he wasn't looking at her. He was looking at Jirachi, who only now was stirring awake. "Jirachi..."

The little white legendary made curious sounds at their new surroundings. Even with him, Shannon and Ashe here, their dorm retained its cosy vibes and had plenty of room. Jirachi himself had been set down on a first aid mat with a pillow, where his wounds had been treated the best they could manage. Ashe put in amazing work there, though a few cuts and bruises remained. Hopefully they'd heal over time.

"Oh, Kayla!" Jirachi bounced up to her on the bed. He had the cutest, happiest smile. "Thank you so much for saving me!"

"Uh, sure. That's part of the job at this point," she replied blankly as he shook her hand. She couldn't feel a thing, which felt upsetting right now. "I know you just woke up, but I'm hoping we can get to the bottom of all this."

"Of course. Anything for you. You are Kayla's friends, right?" Jirachi sat down and looked over everything. He was half Kayla's height, making him smaller than everyone. Granted Kayla was taller than the average Buneary, but that still wound up being a very cute thought. He didn't sound like one, but Jirachi was practically a baby.

"On the day I was meant to come here to RSE, I had a very weird dream. I've been having dreams since, and each one feels really real," Kayla began, looking over everyone. Arms were folded and backs were settled, implying she had the floor. "It's like I'm not even asleep. And in all of those dreams after the first, Jirachi kept telling me to find him. But I didn't understand anything, so I feel like I lucked out finding him now."

"What's in those dreams? You were super freaky this morning, you know. The whole crying in your sleep thing," Pola cocked her head.

"The first dream's the most important one. I still don't get it, but I guess I was in a team or something," Kayla looked up to recall it. "We were in a desert. Pola, you were there, even though I'd never met you."
