Wiping the sleep from her eyes, Kate sat up to her full height to have a better look around.

The room was dark, darker than the little girl ever accepted. She whimpered as she pulled her stuffed animal closer to her chest, comforting him with reassurance and pats of encouragement. If Louis had made the guess of one of them waking up because of a nightmare, he would probably be mistaken for a prophet. Tottering to her feet, she pushed back the homeliness of her blanket and felt her way to the door connecting the two rooms, stumbling only once. Melody seemed to sleep well and deep, since Kate never heard her wake up. Kate never slept well, especially not in a new place, and the nightmares were worse tonight.

She opened the door just a crack, enough to see what Louis was doing but not totally reveal herself just yet.

A whimper escaped from within the burrow of the rabbit as the hellhound dug its claws into the dirt, paws sinking in the mud it created with the intense heat generating around its uncomfortable position.

Pyralis gave the beast a shove from behind, pushing it further upwards in the cramped conditions they shared. You dumb dog! Just GO! I got through, so you certainly can!

Kate let the door open, stepped inside, and closed it just as gently behind her. She gazed up at the stars, her pj's she had been provided most likely originally Melody's, so they were a bit too big for her, covering her feet and hands from sight if she let them, as she did now. They were a pale pink in color, slightly faded, and had dark pink dots on them, so the little girl very much liked them. Pink was her favorite color, after all. She looked at the water, taking in her reflection and noticing her pajamas covered everything.

Maybe I'm shrinkin! A panicked thought filled her mind for a brief moment, since she had not been told they were previously another's. I need to eat more vegetables!

Then she returned to the matter at hand, rocking a little back and forth and finally looking up at Louis, her voice soft, big, blue eyes still damp from a few tears. "I had a bad dream..." Little did she notice near the suspicious rabbit hole and impatience from Pyralis, some grass began to singe as smoke wafted into the air.
