Luca wasnât really sure how, why or what had happened, all he knew now was that he was very small, well, smaller than he already was anyway. Only about three inches tall, in the walls of a place that rumbled and quaked with footsteps of⌠what Luca guessed were giants.
He wandered around this place, trying not to be seen, or crushed for that matter, scooting up against walls and scurrying around like some kind of insectâŚ. until heâd finally found a room he thought was unoccupied and he succumbed to the pressure and began to break down in tears.Â
He knew a day like this would come⌠and now it had.
Being normally sized again and getting home both excited and terrified Luca, that just opened up even more questions.. what would he do after? Would he be able to get home with Patches at that size?⌠What about the people who roamed this place? Would he have to explain it to his parents? It was all just fruitless guessing at this point, Luca figured he shouldnât bother the good Doctor with questions like that. But as that thought settled in his mind, he was being led to a bed.
The truth was, that exhausted, sleepy demeanor wasnât going to go away, his sleep was just as restless as his waking life, but he wasnât in a position to refuse a chance to sleep, and the last thing he wanted to do was badger the doctor with his nonsense while he had important work to do.
So, instead he did as he was told with a nod, and took off his shoes before climbing onto the sponge, feeling his body sink into it for a second before he began to drift off⌠hoping that his powers or nightmares wouldnât surface while he slumbered.Â
To be honest he didnât even know if he could even change him back to normal. It was a long shot and there was many ways it could all go wrong but it would be best to not let the child know about it. Once Luca was all cozy in his bed- Patches pulled up the blanket and patted the childâs head a few times before turning back to his work.Â
Though Mothra wanted to examine the weird smaller human- as it was getting strange vibes from him. It landed on the side of the bed and stared at him curiously in his sleep. It only took a few minutes for the little bug to fall asleep itâself in that spot.Â
Patches- even though getting drowsy himself, wanted to figure this whole plan out to get this child home safe. As Pacthes looked at his pre-made maps of the base, routes and notes on almost every merc he looked over his shoulder to check in on the little boy once in a while. Sooner or later the little doctor did pass out on his desk with his glasses being screwed up.
