**Vermillion City**<br/><br/>Micah burst out laughing. He couldn't help himself.<br/><br/>"I'm glad you think so. Hopefully it doesn't get TOO interesting. I've noticed that when 'interesting' involves my family it's usually a pain in the ass." He shook his head slightly. "But honestly, I think you'll be alright. You're not a beginning trainer, so I doubt anything that we encounter will be too overwhelming. I'm just trying to prepare you for the worst. If we do run into some sort of huge unknown monster that has a propensity towards killing people, it could get very dangerous. And depending on the strength of the beast, it's possible that our monsters may be in danger if we call upon them to protect us."<br/><br/>Micah stared straight ahead, watching the faces of people that passed. He felt that they were mostly blissfully ignorant, in their own worlds. He assumed that he too was ignorant of many things, and that the lot of them combined really didn't understand half of what the big picture was, if they even saw it at all. Everyone went about their own business. It was just a fact of life.<br/><br/>"But just remember, that's what your monsters are there for. To keep you safe."
