Eventually the others moved outside. Alice felt anger pulse through her as she caught Meg's gaze. She was surprised by the intense emotion. She knew what happened wasn't really Meg's fault, but she still blamed her for wanting to interfere in the city. They should never have been there... If she had only listened to Alice...

Alice sat nearby. She remained silent, letting her irritation grow, rolling Aster's Pokeball around in her hands. She didn't know how much the others knew. After a moment she stood up and approached the rest of the group. She didn't want to think about what had happened, but there was no way around it. They deserved to know.

Alice ignored Meg's questions about Jacob and someone named Vii that she didn't know.

"That shadow monster... it was Max," she said coldly and without emotion, much differently to her usual character. She paused for a moment, allowing it to sink in. "Rose tried to reach him. All we know is he's still in there, somewhere. I don't know what the Rockets have done to him, but I think there is a chance we can still save him." Seeing an older Meg and Max visiting Max's memories made Alice believe that they would eventually succeed. And future Max would one day bring future Meg into his memories. Seeing them together had confirmed a lot of things for Alice.

Alice did not feel like telling the others what she had seen in Max's memories or even that she had been there. She would leave that up to Rose, if she wanted to share. All she wanted to do now was to keep moving. There was no point dwelling on what had happened. Every time she thought of the little boy trapped in the monster she felt the cold fist of rage clutch her heart.

"We should go and find Upgrade now," she said stonily. "Where's Alakazam?" she asked, looking around.
