"Fair enough," Cabot sighed as he sat down on his new bed. "Maybe I'll try asking Maple about it sometime later. If she's lying we'll surely find out when we ask enough questions."

Cabot tilted his head as he listened to Nip's explanation. So the Shadow Machine was created by a group of humans called 'Team Rocket'? Given what the machine had done they sounded like a bad group for sure. Back home he'd heard of the great magic that humans were capable of, so a malicious...

"I think I've been a little out of the loop," Cabot admitted. "What happened exactly?"

"Not unless you know a way to travel to my world," Cabot chuckled. "Temporary body and all that."

Cabot slowly began to smile as a feeling of relief washed over him. For a moment he was worried that Nip only accepted his apology because he was assigned to be his roommate, but it looked like things would turn out alright after all. "I understand. Thank you, Nip," he said. "I really...

"I think they just assigned me at random, or maybe they thought it was practical or something since three 'mons can easily sleep here, but only you and Nip currently are..." An awkward silence filled the room after he finished speaking, prompting Cabot to shift uneasily. Part of him was okay...

"Apparently they don't want us to take up more rooms than needed, so they assigned me to sleep at this room... you guys' room."

Cabot nervously approached the door to his new room. While he wanted to talk things over with Nip, he certainly hadn't expected to get the opportunity by being assigned to the same room as him. Not only that, but this was Celeste's room as well, the other member of his team he had said some...
