Either Alice didn't notice Absol getting a peak up her skirt, or she didn't really mind, just smiling as he began to walk along beside them, looking down at him with a bright grin, before turning her gaze forwards once more.
The walk to Pewter City was uneventful, not taking more than 2 and a half hours before they were entering the city limits. Their first stop was the Pokemon centre, a kind Nurse Joy, who bore more than striking resemblance to the nurse back home in Viridian City, seeing to Absol and Poliwag before returning them to Alice. "Alright....time for us to get that gym badge!" Alice grinned, rubbing Absol's head before turning to leave the centre, following the signs toward the Pewter City Pokemon gym. Alice didn't really know what to expect, but that was part of the fun, she didn't want advance knowledge or warning of what was coming, she needed to learn how to handle the unexpected.
"Hello?" Alice called out as she slowly pushed the large doors open, taking a slow look around. "Is anyone here?"
