As Ninten continued, he heard a shriek that sounded like a girl.

Rushing over, he found the owner of that voice; Lloyd being attacked. There was a purple dressed girl on top of him, latched on like he's air, tossing any attack she could. Ninten screamed at her to leave him alone. Why did he do that?

The girl turned to Ninten, and got off of Lloyd with a smug smile.

Now why should I do that, she asked. She ran to Ninten, about to attack him too, when as he fell back, a golden light caught her eye.

'Oh! That Light! You must be the boy who died in the mommy town!'

A slight hint of pink rushed to Ninten's face, but he dismisses it. Lots of boys die in Podunk, young and old. It could be anyone she's speaking of. Might not even be Podunk she means at all!

All that hope fades away as the girl figures out that he is infact The boy who got a second life; Kenny Isaac Toi

Ordinarily, Ninten would not mind. He didn't really care about his birth given name since 'Ninten' or just 'Ten' sounded cooler. This isn't ordinary. He's talking to a girl who probably killed innocent people.

He just shakes his head. There's not really a way to say why he doesn't like his name or why he calls himself Ninten. He just shakes as if everything's fine. The girl shrugs back.
Meaningful exchange

'I'm Ana, a pleasure to meet you, Kenny.'

If Ninten hears that name one more time he's going to lose it. He takes out another scarf from the bag and wrapped it around Ana. That'll get her to shut up.

As Ana tried getting the scarf off, Ninten casted PSI he'll probably never use again: Lifeup. Lloyd recovered from the attack, as Ninten picked him up and carried the recovering boy. He pointed at the tracks, saying Back to Merrysville as Ana shot Lloyd a glare.

Despite Ana attacking, she still has a heart. She's aware of the world, and feels emotion for others. She's heard of the boy who brought flowers, the boy who died. Despite him being a bit of a jerk now, Ana still thinks he's worth protecting. As long as the other doesn't take all Ninten's time.

'So, why are we heading back to Merrysville' Lloyd asked upon reaching Spookane again. The answer was simple. They were headed to Youngtown.

'Why Youngtown?' Ana questioned. The answer again was simple. The adults there have PSI. If Ninten could increase it, he could find a way to tear into the dream realm and kill Mary.

So the duo heads on the train, as a small little child began tapping their foot to a tune, singing

'Though Ice can stop Fires

it takes a will of stone.'

The song triggered Ninten's head to stop it. He tapped Ana, who began yelling at Ninten. This drowned out the child, but got them thrown into a Desert.

The trio land facefirst into the sand. Maybe Youngtown is past here. Of course, Lloyd being in a little trashy outfit, began complaining about the heat.

Ninten sighed, as he shooed Ana way to help Lloyd. The green curtain like cloak was tossed into the bag, and the trio regrouped and began searching

There's a plane. Looks nice, they thought. Nobodies attending it, so they climbed in and flown into YoungTown, landing safely(somehow). But...Where's the PSI capable adults? 'Split up' Ana said.

Lloyd wondered why there were Easter Eggs tucked away in a basket in one house. He checked one of the tags on it. In nearly illegible handwriting read; To Mama, From Piper. Easter passed, so Lloyd cracked the egg open. Inside was a red grain of sand, the kind that go in Timers.

Ana was a bit tired of kids clinging to her saying 'Mama!' She couldn't hurt them, they were too young and innocent. She shook them off, as each one cried.

'Where the hell are their parents!?' Lloyd asked when they regrouped. Good question. They nearly got the answer as a tiny UFO hovered near them. 'AGED 12, ALL 3. TOO YOUNG.' Then it flew away. Where is it going! The trio followed the UFO.
