Ran walked silently next to Victor, showing no visible emotion on her face as she walked beside him. There was something that showed emotion to any happening to watch them though, every once in while Ran would glance over to him, confusion in her eyes. She did not understand why she was not in a pokeball, or at least why she was allowed to walk beside him instead of behind. She was grateful inside, she had feared the devices since her childhood and her brief stints inside them had only increased that fear, but she still did not understand the reason why. In the end she had never brought up the subject, and she wouldn't anytime soon for fear that he would use it against her; nonetheless, it made her think he may not be as bad as all of the stories she had heard. A hope she both welcomed and feared.
