PP SYS Ch 54: Beeline
"You all might think I know it all and can do whatever, but I am still trying to come to terms with that. There is a lot that I don't even know about myself right now because of all the changes that were made while I was in my coma. Then there is the system, which, quite frankly, is the craziest of all, and then there is Prisma," I said, and then sat up. "There is just a lot I am trying to process right now, so I thought that going to school would be a good way to find out what I can and cannot do, as well as get to know the people around me."
The three of them looked at me, but then all smiled. Even Lusamine, which surprised me.
"That makes a lot of sense. I think some of us forget that you are still new to this world and that you are still trying to figure things out," Joy said, and I nodded.
"Yes, I am, but I am also enjoying it. I like learning new things and meeting new people. This is the part that I am really enjoying," I said, and the three of them laughed before we all started to walk back to the school. We said our goodbyes, and I watched Nurse Miriam walk away.
"So, what now?" Lusamine asked, and I shrugged.
"I was thinking of going back to the room and then coming to Prisma. I wanted to see what I can do about your food and see what else we can improve with Habitat Points," I explained, and Joy nodded.
"That sounds like fun, but just remember that you are allowed to do things that you want as well," She said, and I smiled.
"This is something that I definitely want to do. I am very curious to know what I can do with everything. I also want to see what your places look like now since I just did some upgrades last night," I explained.
"The place just got bigger with more crap that we can't use or even move. It's like everything is glued in place," Lusamine grumbled, and I laughed before nodding.
"Well, then, let's go and see what you can do with all of that stuff. Maybe I can help you out a bit," I said, and Lusamine nodded as we started to walk back to my dorm.
I had so much on my plate right now, but it was really enjoyable. I was learning more about the world and even myself. I was also getting closer to Nurse Miriam and spending time with some of my Pokémon. I was really looking forward to tomorrow and the adventures to come, but the night wasn't over yet!
Just before we got to the guys' dorms, the girls returned to Prisma, and I headed to my room. Once inside, I stripped down and tossed my clothing in the laundry before changing into black sweats and a white shirt.
I flopped on my bed, closed my eyes, and then opened them up to the evening sky of Prisma. The times of the two worlds weren't the exact same, but I hadn't really been here long enough to get a real feel for the difference.
[There soon will be no difference, but the system is still trying to configure the worlds to match up in this Worldline. The process is complicated, but the estimated time of sync is in two days. Once that happens, we will be able to properly dilate time in Prisma.]
'Dilate? You mean we can slow time here?' I thought, and then Cryo, the six-winged small blue Pokémon, appeared in front of me.
"Yes, we can slow or speed the way that time passes, but at both our stages with my evolution and your system restricts the amount. Once we are stronger, it will be possible to fit a day into an hour or a year into a day in the outside world. We are a long time from this, and it might even become stronger since this is all estimates of what is possible," Cryo explained as I saw Joy and Lusamine coming over to where I was sitting in the grass under a tree.
I looked back at the Poke-Center, but it really hadn't changed; now, there were trees and a flower garden off in the distance. When I looked back, Cryo was gone.
"Well, I think it looks beautiful," Lusamine said as she sat down and then looked up at me. "Do you like it?"
"I do. This place is starting to look really nice. I think that the more time we spend here, the more things will start to look different, and we can make it our own," I replied, and then ran my hand through the grass.
"What do you think that you are going to upgrade?" Joy asked as she took a seat on my other side.
"I have to see how I can even do this. I haven't used my Habitat Points yet," I said, and then Lusamine scowled at me.
"Why can't we do some things with my ball? I am the scientist, and I am getting tired of working out all the time!" Lusamine complained and then puffed out her cheeks.
"Well, the problem with that is the Habitat Points aren't universal, and the ones that we earned from the Quest can only be used in Nurse Joy's area. I am not sure why it's like that, but it is," I explained, and Lusamine growled, but Joy giggled.
"Are you sure you are ready for such a Quest?" Joy asked, and Lusamine crossed her arms over her chest.
"I can obviously do anything that you can! What do I have to do to complete the Quest?!" Lusamine and Joy giggled harder, but I gulped down the spit that was in my mouth.
"I am going to start to see what I can do about the upgrading, and you can talk to Lusamine about the... Quests," I said as I got up fairly quickly and started to beeline to Joy's Poke-Center without looking back.
