"You mean it?!" I gasped, admiring the device in my hand "You didn't have to!" Bianca chuckled.

"It's the least we can do for bringing me all the way here safely and quickly" she said.

"With how dense Bianca is, she probably didn't even bring any money and planned on walking the whole way here. I'm surprise she didn't miss the ferry coming here" Cheren smiled as Bianca nervously laughed.

"I'm happy to be involved! You guys are great! I can't believe it's been so long since we've last met. You got so tall, Cheren" I smiled. Cheren tugged on his neck hole.

"T-Thanks..." I smiled at how much he changed. I can strictly remember Cheren always giving Bianca a hard time because she was slow, now they're totally a couple! So cute! "Anyway, don't forget to thank Professor Juniper for the Pokédex. She made it herself" I nodded and turned to Looker when he cleared his throat.

"I don't think this device is necessary. You're not allowed to have a Pokémon. Your guard will be the one protecting you" he took the device away from me.

"What?! Come on! I love Pokémon! So what if I can't have one?! I can still use it if I needed it!" I pounded on his arm to give back my Pokédex. He got annoyed really fast.

"A guard?" Bianca questioned.

"Are we done here?" Looker asked. I groaned and turned back to my new friends and bowed.

"Thank you for lending me the dex! I'm sure it'll be useful in the future! That is if he gives it back" I chased after Looker already walking away "Looker, give me that dex!"

"You don't need it" he said, holding it out from my reach "Your guard will keep you safe no matter what"

"But I just want to know more about Pokémon! You have no idea how much I love to learn! So what if I may not have a use for it? What if one day a Pokémon is in need and the only way to help it is why getting information from-"

"You're not going to convince me, Camilla" I whined, trying to reach up for it "I'll give this to your guard so he can decide" I gave up and sighed.

"Well... As long as you don't throw it away, I'll sell my soul and let this guard lead my life" I placed the back of my hand on my forehead, being dramatic "I'll even let him take away my rights and lock me away forever!" He sweat dropped at my acting "Why should I let a guard control what I want to do on this journey? He better not slow me down" we made it to the outlook and looked up at the long staircase.

"He should be up there. Since he'll be your guard, you better be on your best behavior" Looker started climbing up. I sighed and looked at the dex in his hands. Geez... right when I thought I was free, I'm tied down to the minimum. Like I'm going to let some guy keep me from doing what I want. Be on my best behavior? Does Looker even know me?

"Whatever" I sighed and walked up with him until we made it to the top.

I'm slowly starting to get annoyed at how I'm being treated. I'm not even being treated like a person. What do I have to do to get some respect around here? I didn't even do anything to get my dex taken away from me!

"Glad you can make it" Looker told someone. I refused to face any of them until I get my Pokédex back, so I sat on a picnic table and turned my back from them "Camilla" I ignored him and crossed my arms "Hello!? I'm talking to you!"

"I'm not saying another word until you give me my dex back!" I huffed, refusing to move from my spot.

"What is this?" A boys voice spoke "Who is this? What's this got to do with Rosa's case?" Huh?
