[Lightners]
] Long time ago, us darkfolk were in an alliance with the Lightners.
] This place was a safe haven for them. Food, beverage, whatever they wanted was here...
] And then one day, I guess we ran out of use. No longer needed. 
] But some think they found a new purpose for our world... Garbage storage! Gyahaha!
] ...Yet, of course, not all share the common, bleaker outlook. 
] The Principal of Academy is adamant on Lightner's return, plannin' to restore our realm's original purpose...
] ...My thoughts?
] I jus' think we should pick our purpose on our own! Gyahaha!

[This world]
] There was nothin' special about the place. No rulers, no leaders. But sooner or later someone had to fill that role.
] And it ended up being an old lady, the owner of the Academy.
] 'Course, not without help from the outside. A mysterious guest visited her, promising to "turn back time" to the good ol' days.
] And then, it's like somethin' CLICKED inside her. 
] Haven't seen such case of lunacy since... 
] Ehh... 
] I don't remember it! Gyahah!
] Come back later, will you? I'm sure I'll have remembered by then.

{ Meanwhile... }

] Welcome to your new home, lightner! Have fun!

J] HEY! NO! LET ME OUT!!

] Oh come on, it's not that bad! It has everything you need!

{ Jerome looks back to view the contents of the room. }
{ There is a little bed, a bookshelf with books for children and crude drawings plastered all over the room. }
J] HEY! I'm not a child-
J] Hey, where did you go?
J] Mister?...
J] Well I guess I'm stuck here for awhile...
J] Gotta get comfy!

{ Jerome jumps on the bed half his height in length, wiggling around to get comfortable. }
{ He takes one of the drawings off the wall, examining the... artwork. }

J] Huh...

J] Well I guess they won't mind one less measly door in here!...

{ Jerome hears faint sobbing down the hall. }

J] Wait... Ashry?
J] Buddy, are you there?! I'm coming!

{ He sprints down the hall, following the sound... }

J] Hey, buddy-buddy, everything alright?

A] M-my mom...
A] I-I brought you here... I did as she asked!
A] I thought she would be proud...
A] But m-my room...

J] Uh... What about it??

A] ...It's not mine anymore!
A] She t-told me that it's reserved for someone else...

J] You're not talking about THAT room, right?...

A] W-What?...

J] Well you know! Plastered with-

A] W-WHAT?!
A] But--
A] THAT'S MY ROOM!
{ Ashry bursts into tears, covering his face with his ears as he rolls on the floor. }
A] MINE! MINE!! MINE!!!

J] Hey, it's alright, it's alright! you can take it back! I don't need it!...

{ Suddenly his demeanor changes. He wipes off his tears and rises above. }

A] It's all YOUR FAULT.
A] IF YOU LIGHTNERS JUST DIDN'T EXIST...
A] EVERYTHING WOULD BE FINE.
A] I HATE YOU. 
A] I HATE YOU I HATE YOU I HATE YOU.

J] HEY-HEY-HEY, YA SURE WE CAN'T TALK ABOUT IT OR SOMETHING, BUDDY?!

S] Could you check for, you know, Jerome and the kid?

N] JEROME IS RIGHT BEHIND YOU.

S] Oh, Jerome! Haha!...
S] ...Listen.
S] I was wrong.
S] And I want to apologize.
S] I was just so consumed with going back to work...
S] I guess I just didn't think of anything around me.
S] I'm sorry for my words and actions.

J] No-no, I understand. 
J] You're a busy man, afterall. You have a job to do.
J] ...Honestly I dont know why I was so pushy about this magical adventure thing.

S] You were trying to help me, get me out of my bubble.
S] I appreciate the effort.
S] And... I think payed off.

J] So... Colleagues, friends, pals, buddies?

S] All of the above, pardner!
S] Pow, pow, pow!

{ Simon mimicks guns with his fingers and makes gun noises. }

J] Aha, That's more like it, Wild West!

S] Say... where is Ashry?

J] Well, we had a talk and I think he has a plan to do about his mom?
J] He said he's gonna wait for us on the upper floor.

S] Alright, then we should get going.
S] Let's move out.

{ Simon became the leader of a crew for real. }
