"And have this dove become Pudge's replacement?" My eyes widened upon hearing her say that. To point of repeating the words she once said. "But isn't this dove your's and the Regalia's?"

"She is, but I think this girl won't mind you at all." Captain Reina opened the lock, which awakened the bird within the cage. It puffed up upon seeing me, but titled it's head a few times. Once the bird spread its wings out, the bird went straight for my shoulder.

"Coo." The bird chirped.

"How cute!" I patted the bird's head. Returning my gaze over to Captain Reina, "Are you sure I can have her?"

"She's all yours." As Captain Reina grabbed the cage, she stopped to remind me. "Just don't forget to name her."

Captain Reina left to return the cage back where it belongs, leaving me alone with the dove.

"I'm not really good at coming up with names though." I stared at the bird perched on my shoulder, pondering on what to name her. "She has a pretty shade of white feathers."

"T-That's it!" My eyes beamed in excitement. "I'll call you Blanche!"

"Nice to meet you, Blanche!" I smiled warmly.
