"That reminds me, I have <span class="mu-r">your baseball cap</span> and <span class="mu-r">some money</span> to split with you." Joe walks to the other side of the room and opens a tall cabinet and you see Gunner's gym bag inside. Joe crouches down and unzips the gym bag and looks over his shoulder at you. "We sold most of the <span class="mu-r">Sleep Bombs</span> and Mini Sleep Bombs to pay for the train tickets, and Tamounda ate all the <span class="mu-r">mon bait</span>, but I still have 10 coins for you." Joe hands you <span class="mu-r">your baseball cap</span> and then he hands you <span class="mu-r">a sack of coins</span> and then he looks back in the gym bag.
You hold your baseball cap and the sack of coins in your hands for a moment but all you can think about is Ramster, Tamounda, and Lottatax fighting Auroara, Aura, and Prima! It doesn't seem like it will be a fair fight, does it?
"Joe?"
"Hmm?" Joe stops and looks over his shoulder at you.
"I want to enter the tournament!"
Joe stands up and glances at the other room and then looks at you and says "I don't think that's a good idea. Even with a hat, they'll recognize you and-"
You're shaking your head!
"With you!"
"With me? You mean..." Joe is looking at you closely! You don't look away, even though Joe is looking at you! "Enter the tournament as one of my three mons?"
You're nodding your head! Do you really want to fight as a mon even though that means all the humans will know you're really a Cutémon and not a human girl?
"I can fight with Onlion!"
When you look through the doorway, Onlion looks at you and walks into the room and says "ONNNN-" and sits next to you! It seems like Onlion wants to help! You crouch down and hug Onlion and then look up at Joe and... What? You just noticed Ekro sitting on top of the cabinet above Joe? You point up at Ekro!
"And Ekro!"
Ekro looks down at you and says "Cutémon!" and flaps his wings and flutters down past Joe and lands on the floor next to you and Onlion! You look at Onlion and Ekro and then look up at Joe and give him your cutest look!
"Please?"
Joe looks at you and then looks at JP and Psykid and Ramster and Tamounda and Lottatax all standing in the doorway.
What? JP is standing in the doorway? JP looks at you and says "Mashi, why did Ekro just call you 'Cutémon'?"
You and Joe glance at each other and then you reach up and-
<span class="mu-s"><span class="mu-b">"What are you doing?"</span></span>
-you take off Katie's hat and blink at JP with all four of your eyes!
"I'm a Cutémon!"
JP can't believe it! She looks at Psykid wearing her jacket on her head and Psykid can't help taking a step backward! JP looks at you again and then looks at Psykid. "Did you know about this?"
Psykid is shaking her head!
Joe glances at you and holds the back of his head with one hand and says "Everyone's going to know about it before long."
Suddenly you hear JP's mother call downstairs! "Georgette! Dinner's almost ready!"
