Poshley Sanctum, past
-With that, a hole opens up in the floor, revealing a ladder headed downwards-
Maggie: "Oh, was wondering where that would be."

-As Nico and Maggie head down the ladder, they would eventually get into a room pretty similar to the aboveground one-
-There is another pedestal with another Garnet Star-

-Nico quickly grabs the star and holds it aloft rather unenthusiastically-
Nico: Yay.

Maggie: "Okay, now lets head back up and take the undoubtedly long train ride back. At least it'll be convenient for Rosh Hashanah, though."

Candace: <Blegh. I was I could just fly back, but the last time we split the party...>
Goombella: <Hey, can I stop by the station on the way back? There are some power converters I'd like to pick up.>
Jason's Room
-Jason wakes up-
-Beat-
-And finds a Noctowl staring at him.
Grim:<Hmmmmmmmmmmm...> ovo
Jason:...really dude...again?
Grim:-flaps-<I can't help being mostly nocturnal.>
Jason:...but still...
-He yawns, and goes about his routine before he and Grim go to get breakfast in the lobby-
We should start heading into Victory Road soon...
-Grim nods.-
Somewhere. Let's say it's Ever Grande, and she's just really late
Amanita: I'm sorry I haven't called. I've just been really busy lately. I thought my boyfriend was dead for a while, and—
Amanita's Mom: I am sorry for your loss. Have you planted mushrooms recently?
Amanita: Mom, I'm trying to tell you—
Amanita's Mom: Please plant more mushrooms. We will be sending you mushrooms for you to plant. Please plant them.
Amanita: Mom, I—
Amanita's Mom: Thank you for planting the mushrooms.

Amanita: ....
....
....I'm going to take advantage of the date and drink myself into a stupor now.
Dunsparce didn't stop being a thing or anything.Ever Grande City
Sakura is currently in her room, wearing Shingeko's helmet
"Hmm, I might need to get a little haircut, wearing this with all this hair is starting to get uncomfortable..." she thought
Suddenly the door to her room slams open with Lyuri and Duke being the culprits
"Hey, Sakura, are you gonna do-"
And then they are greeted by the sight of Sakura still wearing her dress but with Shingeko's helmet on her head.
"Gah! Don't you know to knock first?!" said Sakura, startled, in a most definitely masculine voice. She then attempts to put a hand on her mouth as she realized what she just did but couldn't because of the helmet.
Lyuri and Duke just stand there, their eyes widening as they heard her voice and their mouths agape.
"Whaaaaaaat...?" said Duke, looking completely mind screwed by the situation
"Um... I'm cosplaying!" said Sakura, desperately
There's silence between the three
"... Well, my innate bullshit detector just went out." said Lyuri, still looking perplexed
"Same here." said Duke
At this point Sakura just sat down and groaned, helmet still on her head.
Ever Grande City
-Sarah passes Sakura's door, still groggy. As such, she walks by without processing the situation, blinks, realizes what's going on, backpedals, goes wide-eyed, glances around, and makes a "quick close the door before anyone else sees" gesture before walking back out toward the lobby-
Ever Grande City
Lyuri and Duke notice Sarah and her gesture and it doesn't take long for them to get it, as Sarah started to leave, Lyuri quickly grabbed her
"Wait, you knew about that?" she asked
Meanwhile Sakura took that opportunity to take her helmet off and hide it.
Ever Grande City
-Sarah squeaks as she's suddenly grabbed, and pulls the door closed as she's dragged in-
Sarah: Eep! Um, er... y-yes?
Ever Grande City
Lyuri then looks at Sakura
"You told her but you didn't tell me?" she asked, looking almost offended
"That one was a complicated case." said Sakura
"I think the most important question here is why are you pretending to be a man? That sounds more like something Lyuri would do." said Duke
"Yeah- Wait." Lyuri then gave Duke a look that seemed less than impressed while having one hand on her hip
"What?" he shrugged
Sakura then looked over at Sarah, the expression on her face having "I'm sorry" written all over it.
Ever Grande City
Sarah: Well, um... aren't family members supposed to be the ones superheroes are never supposed to tell?
-She gives Sakura an equally apologetic look-
Sarah: And... well, I only know in the first place because I got really suspicious about something she said. Well, he. Something Shingeko said.
Ever Grande City
"It's not like we would get in any more trouble than we already do." Lyuri sighed "What the hell though? Why?"
"Well, Hikari talked to me and-" said Sakura
"Okay that already explains everything." said Lyuri
"Wait, who else knows about this?" asked Duke
"Only Sarah, Lucius, Hikari and Blitz." Sakura put a hand on her head and sighed
"... Wait. Is Blitz your sidekick?" asked Duke
"Umm..."
Ever Grande City
-Sarah sweatdrops-
Sarah: Well, now that secret's pretty much out too. Think we could cut back on the secret-revealing now?
Ever Grande City
"This is unbeliavable..." Lyuri rubbed her head as she took it all in "... Well, I guess Shingeko's Greninja army makes a lot of sense now."
"Well, yes. If I didn't disguise myself as a guy it would be pretty obvious who Shingeko is for everyone midly familiar with me." said Sakura, sighing
"Makes sense, so both the Avenger and Shingeko are members of the J-Team." said Duke, letting out a smile.
"Yes, though so far there has only been on Shingeko." she looked at Sarah "So, um... Good morning." she giggled
Lyuri grimaces slightly "Oh yeah, sorry for dragging you into this the way I did."
Pyrite Town
"Red?"
-Beat-
"Man Shady?"
off the shitsPyrite Town, Last Night
Red: Yeah. Not the most creative of names. Anyways! Blue! Haven't seen you since, what, we were seven?
She grabs Blue in a massive bear hug.
Blue: Ha ha, yeah, something like that. Ow. Ribs, Red, ribs.
Red: OH! Sorry.
She puts her down.
Ever Grande City
Sarah: Actually, the new Avenger... uh...
-She trails off, a look of "oh crap now I'm doing it too" on her face-
Sarah: ...Nevermind. Ignore that! I, uh...
-She clears her throat to answer Sakura properly-
Sarah: Uh... yes. Good morning. Good morning! Dragging me into all this wasn't all that bad, don't worry!
Ever Grande City
"Okay you clearly are hiding something else but I'm not going to pry." said Lyuri
"You're looking pretty anxious." said Duke, a little worried.
Ever Grande City
Sarah: Not prying would be appreciated, yes...
-She sits down, once again looking rather drowsy and tired-
