'Toge toge?'

The Togepi looked down at Calliope from the open ventilation shaft, its small body making the cramped vent look vast and cavernous in comparison. It looked delightfully maintained, a ribbon wrapped around its head. It waved at the former champ, so tantalizingly close yet too far out of reach.

'Toge toge!'

The Togepi waved again, before waggling its fingers in an attempted Metronome. When it did so, a nearby Krabby teleported away, presumably to safety.

In Mauville, an old man was about to boil some pasta. He had even salted his water, but had stepped away from the large, boiling pot to grab some seasoning. Then, suddenly, a Krabby appeared in the air and dropped down into the pot. The water splashed to the ground, the noise startling him. He peered into the pot and wondered about his new dinner...[break][break]

But that wasn't here nor there.[break][break]

Calliope looked up at the Togepi, brows furrowed and lips pursed.[break][break]

"Control that thing." Callie ordered Althus Rex, the poor man who was assigned to work with her.

"He's not a thing! He's a little guy!" Rex protested as Togepi waggled his fingers at Calliope. The younger trainer, meanwhile, rushed to Togepi's aid as Calliope proclaimed the innocent creature as little more than a nuisance. "Don't be mean to him!"

Togepi's eyes widened as the egg used Baby Doll Eyes to prove Rex's point. The duo looked pleadingly into the ex-champ's gaze, as if a few stares could warm her frozen heart.

"You gotta apologize! Apologize to Togepi!" Rex insisted, shaking his head earnestly. "Apologize!"

Althus Rex and his failed omelet stared up at Callie cutely.[break][break]

Sadly for them both, she was Immune to Fairy-type attacks.[break][break]

Instead of her stone heart cracking, she only sneered down in disgust at the trainer and his Togepi.[break][break]

"No."

He stared at the vindictive witch masquerading in human skin.

"That's. It. You're the worst!" Rex pointed a finger at the scarred woman with a mixture of wrath and contempt. His finger trembled as he pointed at Kanto's fallen star. "No wonder you look like shit, you're rotten from the inside out!"

'Toge toge!'

From the vent above, Togepi waggled its finger in agreement. The trained eye would notice a Metronome building, but unfortunately Rex only had eyes for the woman in front of him.

"Battle me! Right now! I'll kick your ass!"

Calliope only blinked dully at the finger pointed at her face. Clearly she was not very intimidated.[break][break]

"You must not have many friends."[break][break]

She glanced between Althus Rex and the Togepi once more. Her frown deepened.[break][break]

"No."[break][break]

But she reached out and snatched the man's wrist.[break][break]

She was not opposed to human shields.

"I'll have you know that I gave a total hottie my number recently." It had been an autograph for keiko mori, but there had been a number scrawled on it. "And the people in Littleroot disagree! I'm super popular! More than you, anyway!"

He squirmed against her wrist, surprised by Calliope's raw strength. For someone who looked like they had lost a fight with a pot of hot oil, she had a remarkable grip. If she used it to give hugs instead of assaulting people, she'd be far cooler in Rex's book.

"You're scared I'll win! You're just a bully. All talk, no fight!"

The Metronome continued to build.

"Lemme go!"

"I'm not the one insulting a disfigured person to their face."[break][break]

Callie only tightened her grip and tried to pull Althus Rex closer.[break][break]

She glanced at the Togepi again.[break][break]

"You're also not very good at your job. Or training your pokemon."

She deserved it. She had messed with Togepi.

Such a crime was paramount to treason against the Pokémon League. Calliope refusing to apologize to the little fellow meant that she probably kicked Growlithes for fun or something equally heinous.

"Wrong! I'm gonna be the champion! The strongest trainer of all time!" She was too close, and not in a good way. Each line of scarring, each tortured wound reflected in Rex's eye.

All he felt was repulsion.

"That's why..." Togepi's fingers kept wagging. "I'm gonna reach the top!"

The Metronome triggered, and Calliope was Teleported to the top deck of Sea Mauville where rangers ran around, evacuating staff and Pokémon.

She was back up above.[break][break]

A loud sigh left her.[break][break]

"If he ever gets to the E4, I'm telling Navy to fail him." She muttered to herself.
