**Vermillion City**<br/><br/>Micah wouldn't have been a man if he didn't stare for a moment upon looking up to see the young woman approach him. He tamed his thoughts, knowing of course that he was a married man, but he had to remind himself to close his mouth and tighten his slack jaw.<br/><br/>"Why hello, Miss." Had he not known Renna well enough by her voice, he would have never even recognized her. Clearing his throat, he gestured to the paper plate next to him on the bench, along with the cup of orange juice. "I got you some breakfast." He stood up slowly, picking up the plate and offering it to her. "I figured you could probably use something since we'll be traveling for awhile. I bought us some bus passes, and we can pick them up at the station anytime. The paperwork has already been filled out."<br/><br/>He waited for his companion to take the plate from him, then started walking up the street. Charming bird songs filled the air, but it was perhaps the cries of the wingulls riding the lofty wind currents that gave Vermillion its own unique brand of wild music. Even without being right on the docks, you could tell from anywhere in the city that you were close to the shore.<br/><br/>"My father is going to meet us at the bus station when we get to Palette Town. I couldn't gather from him who else may be there, but I assume he'll have company." If it wasn't for the somewhat grim circumstances they were going to investigate, Micah "Norman" may have actually been very excited for the chance to visit with everyone. For now he was just glad to have company of his own.
