Pearl cast a surprised glance at the boy who had interrupted them, but before she could say anything, her new friend -- Pearl thrilled just thinking the word -- dismissed him. She noticed that the girl had a rather strange way of talking. But of course that didn't matter. They were friends, after all! Pearl still wondered where NaNa was from. She'd never heard anyone else speak like that. She must be from some super cool, mysterious place!!!

Pearl's friend offered to help her find her darling pet. "Ooooh, you'd help me find Snuggles? You're so nice~!!" Pearl beamed at NaNa. "Come with me~!" All her shyness and embarrassment from knocking NaNa down and falling was forgotten. Cloud grabbed her new best friend's hand and pulled her down the hallway, in the direction Snuggles had gone. As she was running a thought made its way to her bedazzled mind. Maybe her search for sweet Snuggles would make people sympathetic to her, and maybe, just maybe, they'd become her friends!!!!!!!!! She stopped so suddenly that NaNa was going run into her if she wasn't careful. She looked around with hopeful eyes. Was there anybody around who wasn't too busy to help look for her puppy? Not confident enough to shout her plea in the hallway, she whispered loudly to NaNa, "Do you see anybody here who might help us find Snuggles?"
