"Ruby.....wait."
"Adryan, let her go.
We've planted doubt, so let's just watch it grow.
She'll come crawling back to us, and with it; all her memories.
That's what we need, Adryan. That's what we need. Don't you get that."
"But you didn't have to lie to her."
"How do you know what was a lie, and what was a truth?"
"..........Ruby, you're back. How was the surgery?"
"Not now, Bert.
I'll be in my room."
*Slam*
"Goodnight to you too."
"This can't be happening. I just.....Huh?
*Click*
Maybe TV will help."
*Ding*
"How may I help you?"
"Here to see, Ruby."
"You are?"
"We are friends of Rubies. Please? My name is Rainbow and this is my sister...."
"I trust you."
"You what?"
"To be honest, Ruby could use all the friends she could get right now.
Didn't look too happy a few minutes ago."
"Thank you."
"Welcome back to the adventures of PlantLily. We join now where her city is overrun by the evil Exterminators.'
'Aaaaaaaagggh. They're everywhere. Who will save us? Please...'
'Remain...calm....I repeat.....remain calm….'
*Waaaticckkkhhh...Waaatiicckkkkh...Waatiickkkhhhh*
'Stay indoors and no one will hurt you. You have our....'
'No.....They have my word, and I say you're not welcome here.'
'Yeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa. It's PlantLitly.'
'Go back to where you came, vile Robots, and leave us alone.'
'Get out of here, Little girl or we'll be forced tooo.'
*Stiiiissssssshhhhhhh*
'PLANTLILY, Don't let their spray get you."
"Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaghhhhh."
'PlantLily...Nooooooooo!!!!!!!!'
'Aahhhhhaaahaaahaaahhaaaa.
Aaahaaaahaaahaaaahaaahhaaa.' "
*Knock, Knock, Knock*
*......Click*
"Who is it?"
"It's us."
"....Rainbow, you're here. You....What's she doing here?"
"I came to say I am sorry...….and ask for your forgiveness. If you'll give it."
"How do I know you're real?"
"What are you talking about? You know me?"
"I don't know. Just finished checking in with Xy, and he said nothing could be real. You all could be fantasies of my imagination. That's why you all are acting so nice to me."
"Ruby, I don't know who Xyone is, nor can I guarantee what your fantasies are, but I can guarantee you that I am real. Flesh, blood...and...can you feel me, Ruby?"
"Eeeeeyeeeeee….es."
"That's how you'll figure out what's fact and what's fiction...…..but please....I don't want to be fiction with you."
"Natysh."
"Yes, Ruby?"
"......I could never stay mad at you forever, you know that."
"Thanks....…..Can you forgive the others?"
"If they show up in person just like you, then yes."
"You and I both know that is a no."
"Then you have my answer."
"Ruby, how are you able to know someone's there if all you can sense is their feeling?"
"Trust I guess. Trust in the invisible, but the studies of before. Why?
I'm still not going to trust the Majority, based off of what they have done.
I will forget, but I won't forgive."
"Uhhh…..Ruby, I think you have that backwards."
".......On that note, I am going to leave you two alone.
Rainbow has some stuff she has wanted to run by you and told me I can't be involved, so ummmmmm..."
"The only reason you rode your Pegasus here was because Rainbow is too young to ride by herself? So since you are already here, why not pull a fast one on me?"
"No. I already planned on wanting to.....You're smiling right now. How could you?"
"Just wanted to hear you officially say it and check whether your heartrate stayed the same."
"Bye Ruby. I will leave you two to the night."
"Wait, what about me?"
"Uhh....you can sleep here if you want to. I'll pick you up in the morning."
"I believe it will take more than just one night to tell Ruby everything."
"Then stay with her longer, I don't care. You're old enough."
"But there's only one bed."
"That's because this is a single Lounge, not a Hotel; but if you want...…..we can share?"
