[Josh]
   By the time Josh woke up, the fire had died down, since nobody bothered to tend to it through the night. Because of this, it was freezing, and since Josh was a Dragon-type, he didn't handle the cold very well. The fact that he was used to a warm, tropical climate didn't help, either. The only ones in the group that didn't seem to be bothered by the cold were Matt and Kamina.

   He decided to talk to Kiera before they left. He wasn't sure if she was still conscious, let alone if she could hear him, but it was worth a shot.
"Kiera, can you hear me?" Josh said. "We're going to find Reshiram, and if everything goes according to plan, he'll thaw out this village. We'll get you out of here, I promise."

   Everyone had woken up by that point. He hadn't eaten in a while, so he quickly ate one of the pastries he got at the bakery before they left. Doing this mission on an empty stomach wouldn't be a good idea.

[Dexter]
   When Dexter sat down to eat, he was soon joined by the team he'd just rescued. They asked him a few questions, most of which he had no problems answering.
"I'm Dexter." He said in response to Rebecca's question. "I used to be in a team, but they ended up disappearing not too long after we first registered. I've been on my own ever since."
Nina then offered to let Dexter join their team.
"I really need to think about that for a bit. I'll let you know tomorrow."

   He wasn't sure if he wanted to accept Nina's offer or not. Sunswept Plains was one of the most beginner-friendly dungeons out there. If Nina and Rebecca had to teleport away from there, how could they possibly handle the more difficult dungeons? On the other hand, team arrangements weren't permanent. If they ended up holding him back, he could leave the team just as easily as he joined it. On top of that, finding another team would be difficult, especially given his history.

   The next day, Dexter ran into Nina while she was waiting in line for breakfast.
"Hey." He said. "I decided I'm gonna join your team. For now, anyway."
