When John started coming back into consciousness she felt her head on a pillow... she was in a bed somewhere. Opening her eyes she saw she was in some girl's room... Looking to the desk... was that Dolly? As John stirred Holly turned around seeing John's eyes open.
Dolly said "You awake kiddo? You're in m... our room for the time being. I'm your new big sister Dolly..."
John was silent confused... What was Dolly talking about? Some odd way of turning over a new leaf?"
Dolly a little nervous said "I get it, first day with a new foster family... We're basically strangers... It's just I'd like to be a good sister."
Putting together a few points John wondered "Wait... she think's I'm adopted?" then John said "I was just a little confused. I took a little nap and all of a sudden." John looked at herself... yep she made herself a little girl and... was in a giant sweatshirt an- "Did you strip me and put me in this sweater?!?"
Dolly said "That was mom actually, Cindy Mavis, Your clothes were pretty wrinkled and starting to smell... We can go shopping later and get you some cute clothes along with a school uniform."
John asked "Is mommy downstairs?"
Dolly said "Yes bu-"
John jumped out of Dolly's bed and said "Give me a sec!" and ran out of the room and down the stairs to find her mom.
Cindy Mavis was in the kitchen cooking something until she heard a little girl yell "Mommy Mommy Mommy!" Her heart skipped a beat. It had been so long since her kid was so enthusiastic and calling her, but her rational mind knew that little kid was actually a maturing teen.
Cindy asked "Dear, what are you-"
John cut her off and said "Just playing the little adopted girl that I apparently am... Seriously couldn't you have just told Holly the truth?"
Cindy sighed and said "Things got complicated after you fell asleep. Kathy left as some sort of joke, then Yumi found us and I had to think of something that didn't make me seem crazy, and somehow adoption papers turned up..." John could only imagine how many strings Chronos had to pull then her mother continued "Then well here we are. Your old clothes are drying and I'm starting dinner... Why don't you take a bath with Holly? It could be a good chance to bond."
John said "A bath with... Dolly?... a bath..."
Cindy sighed once more "Dear it's been months and you must've had ample opportunities to see yourself-"
"No actually. Not even once..." the shy little girl said
"How?" the flabbergasted woman asked
John stated "Well I just rewound my clothes and body all the time. Never needed to sleep, eat, or go to the bathroom... Just had to keep myself busy..."
Cindy said "Well you're a girl now and have nothing to be embarrassed about. Now go on and learn more about your biology."
"K mom..."
Cindy breathed in deeply thinking "And here I was fearful she'd be too eager to get in that bathtub... Well John's back, but we have to use a lie to convince everyone... hopefully Jane can fill that John shaped hole in everyone else's heart."
