[ On the one hand, Haruka was telling them to run, which meant leaving behind her friends.... On the other, the Arcanine was just protecting its home that they had ventured into. There was a part of Usagi that really did want to run, but... wouldn't it be better to try and talk things out first?

The fear and stress of her choice freezes her in place. Oh Savior, what was she supposed to do? But, it's Pinky stroking her head that pulls her out of her stupor. What a great companion... ]

We don't! But we didn't come here cause trouble! [ Well, if she was going to talk... then she had better say the truth at least! Michiru had said that those were ancient relics and scrolls that they were taking in.. and deep inside, Usagi trusted that they weren't swiping them to sell them on some shady black market or something so really, that only meant one thing... ] We came to this place because we wanted to learn about the past! Because we want to help the humans of this place... of all places know what kind of world humans and pokemon used to live in!

[ Was that right? It sounded right. It felt right. She'll just go with her gut feeling that she said the right thing. ]
