pullsneedlesLucas is grateful when he opens his door to an empty hallway. He'll be happier once he finds Boney but just being alive is great for now.
It doesn't take long, however, for him to pick up his dog's thoughts in a nearby staircase.
"Coast is clear, boy," he calls, still adjusting to the sound once again coming through a Pigmask helmet.
Boney comes down the stairs, his yellow Pigmask helmet looking particularly ridiculous on him. But boy is he glad to see Lucas, especially since he has company.
"We're s'pposed to be looking for some monkeys, or at least that's our story if any Pigmasks ask. They're hidin' somewhere in this lab and prob'ly eager for a way out. And keep a lookout for..."
He winces under his mask as he thinks about the Ultimate Chimera.
"...well, you'll know it when y'see it."

"That's how we all got split up," Lucas says. "He was trying to get us to stay on Thunder Tower while it was being destroyed. After he fell, we grabbed hold of his airship. But we all ended up falling off in different spots. Boney and I ended up in a sunflower field near Tazmily."
"And Doria found me," Kumatora says. "But we knew Lucas was gonna show up 'cause I had a dream where a pretty woman in a red dress told me you were all right."
"You had a dream, too?" the boy asks. "Grandpa told me he had a dream where Mom told him to pile up a bunch of hay. Once he finished, Boney and I fell in it."

"Maybe..." Lucas wonders. "Or maybe his Mom would come to him."
Kumatora nods and then quirks her lips a little in thought.
"Y'know, I just realized none of us have our Moms with us anymore," she states.
"You don't, Kumatora?" the boy asks.
"Nah. The Magypsies have raised me since I was a little squirt."
There's a pause after that admission. Then Lucas goes to give Kumatora another hug.
