Oh, everyone...!  It looks like something strange is happening, after all.  I don't want to say I told you so, but... well, I did tell you so.  Be careful if you're going outside, alright?  Until we sort out what's happening, it'd probably be for the best if everyone kept to themselves.  After all... Wouldn't it be just like the town to trick us into hurting each other again?

[Lucas laughs, less nervous than such a laugh ought to be.  It's slightly unnerving.]

If, you know, the doubles are really the real people just acting different because the town has brainwashed them... Then, if we don't stop to think... Well, I don't want to think what might happen.  Nobody wants to hurt their friends, right?  We can't just believe the people in the pods because they're more... accurate.  It would be just like the the town to pull something so awful!

Anyway, if you're hurt at all, please call me!  I'll be right there to heal you.  That's what I do best...  Please, don't hesitate!

[And Lucas can be found in his garden, tending to his plants with a smile on his face.  ...He's ripping them out.  It was fall, after all.  They were dying.]

[action 2, first for Rainbow Dash, but open afterwards for anyone]
[Naturally, in the middle of his dead garden sits a small pod about the size of a child or a young teenager.]

[action 3]
PK Flash!

PSI Counter Alpha!

[The explosive green light reflects against the shimmering shield, bouncing back with enough speed to catch nearly anyone off-guard; Lucas, though, is intimately familiar with his own battling techniques.  A flick of his stick and the green light harmlessly diffuses into flashing sparks.]

You won't get away with this!

That's what I ought to say!  I'm the real one!

Liar!  You're nothing like me!

Because you're a fake!  You attacked first!

You ran at me with your stick!  Now stop pretending! 

[The two psychic boys continue to duke it out in the front yard.  Lucas doesn't fight too often, but it becomes clear from this battle that he is much more well-practiced than might have been expected.  PSI after PSI is flung back and forth and met with counter or shield; swings to the head are dodged easily; flying leaps result in evenly matched stand-offs as the boys bounce against each other again and again.  At one point, one of the Lucases backflips, collecting a massive amount of PSI power in his foot.  The drive downwards is met with an equally powerful blast of PSI upwards from the defending Lucas; the resulting explosion sends both of them flying.  ...This seems to be a signal for a brief respite.  One of the Lucases certainly could use some help.  His doppelganger was every bit his equal.]

The television show from yesterday, of course. People think aliens are coming.

[Lucas laughs a little as he clears up the last of the uprooted flowers.]

It's silly, but it would just be stupid not to be careful, right?

Aliens? ... mm, yes. It would be very silly not to be careful.

So that is why you stayed away from school today?

There were a lot of people this morning complaining about something strange going on, too. I'm not sure what it was, exactly, but it seems like they've been made to think there are imposters in town.

Imposters? Nihahaha! It would be funny if I turned out to be one such imposter, wouldn't it?

...

Haha! With a laugh like that, I wouldn't be too surprised...

Nihaha. I don't know what you mean! I always laugh this way. You know that.

Really? But we just met last week. Well, I guess I wasn't paying much attention to you.

[He doesn't apologize.]

m-mi..

W-well then, Lucas... I suppose, I should not overstay my welcome.

Oh, you shouldn't worry about that. I wouldn't have talked to you at all if I didn't have a lot of patience for that kind of thing. But if you have to go, I'll see you later!

Mi~i! To as well, Lucas!

Goodbye! Try not to get hurt today!

[The smile on his face is less reassuring than it ought to be.]
