Finally the door to the room opened and a huge man entered. At one point being as overweight as he was would have been reason to make fun of him, but the fact that he was still that overweight - despite the scarcity of food - meant that he was probably a really useful person to have a round.

Still, the girl had to question, was he really?


The girl’s eyes drifted off to his Pokémon - a Pachirisu, which wasn’t exactly the most violent of its typing. Still, they were still alive, weren’t they? That had to count for something, although Alex couldn’t think of what exactly that was.

“I come in peace,” the man said, holding his palms out in a manner that clearly stated that he didn’t want to get into a fight, thank you very much.

Alex allowed her brow to arch slightly as she took this in. He was a dork, of this she was sure, but that certainly didn’t mean he couldn’t still be useful. She had little doubt that he survived on cunning and not power, which would mean he probably wouldn’t mind having somebody with him who could fight off any threats. Furthermore, he could help the girl find food so that she could finally eat properly for the first time in years.

May as well get as much use out of him as she could before she set Killer on him, at any rate.


“Duly noted,” Alex said dryly. “Now, what other reasons do you have for coming here? While peace is well and good, I’m sure you have other motives as well.”

The girl shifted in her seat to a more serious pose, and drilled her emotionless gaze directly into the man. While there was no emotion to it, she found that most of the time people felt it better to answer her truthfully when under it, and so she saw no reason to stop now. Plus, if this man couldn’t handle one little look, then his continued existence was only a fluke that needed to be corrected as soon as possible.

The shadows shifted in the darkened corner of the room, because Killer knew as well as Alex that the answer to this question could very easily lead to the man being marked as useless, and that the girl would happily keep her promise to him.
