Volpe drags what nails he has on the table.

Volpe: I am mandated to tell him E V E R Y T H I N G regarding this damn fucking case! Everything!

Solana: Sheesh man! Don't wreck the table! And by everything, you also mean-

Volpe: Yes! The details of the raid! the details of the raid that I specifically constructed carefully so that nothing could be traced back to you!

Volpe burys his face into his hands and starts outright crying this time. Solana awkwardly looks to Tagg, before looking back at Volpe.

Solana: Uhh.... Volp? Are you OK-

Volpe suddenly grabs Solana's arms and begins crying

Volpe: I tried! I tried'! I did everything within what little power I had to cover up your tracks! And they..., they want me to do this! They want me to ruin everything we worked so hard for! They're bleed us dry! I'm sorry, I 'm so r ry...

Volpe's descent into manic depression, understandable, catches Sol off-guard as she begins to try and console Volpe.

Solana: Woah woah woah! Volpe! Volpe! Calm down! It's alright, it's okay! -Please let go, your grip is freezing.

Volpe is still bawling tears while Solana looks at Tagg, unsure of what to do or how to handle Volpe's breakdown.

I'm having to learn to pay the price

 Santalune, past 

Fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck, I should've seen something like this coming.

-Face looks impassive-

There are going to be a lot of bodies when this is all over... and I hope most if not all of them will be Neo-Flare's.

Luckily Verax and his guys are the hardest to trace, but the others...

-To Volpe-

How detailed do you have to be? Can you lie, or at least stick to giving them the bare minimum of the truth, so no names? It'll unfortunately get rid of the element of ''surprise", but we can survive that.

Most of those involved are luckily not well-known to be J-Team members, and Lex is effectively out of play for Constantin where we've placed him.

Eating a Vanilluxe will give you frostbite.

Volpe lets go of Solana's arm and looks over to Tagg with his tear-streaked face.

Volpe: Lucky for the grand majority of you, I don't have to give any names out of anyone who isn't an Interpol member or associate.

Volpe bites his knuckles.

Volpe: That Shun kid though... Finnegan's gonna know about him, and I know Finnegan has no qualms with hurting or killing kids or using them as bait...

 Granite(?) Cave 

-Semigloss flinches (the reaction, not the status) as the Aggron makes to fling Igneous, peeking out from under her wings upon the realization that she's not a pancake-

Semigloss: <Right!>

-she darts over to the Pupitar, using Fly to try and lift him-

-...-

-there's a reason little birds aren't rated for Sky Battles-

Semigloss: <Gah! He's really heavy; I can't do this myself!>

Dunsparce didn't stop being a thing or anything.

A middle-aged female trainer holding a Riolu commented too.

"I heard from the billboard some swarms were happening on Route 20. I tried visiting there to see if I could find any Bonsly or Mime Jr. but..."

She shakes her head.

Hajime: -to Mark- "Uh, I can get out of line... All these people seem to need it more than with my Pokemon..."

Charles: <We are here because we were unceremoniously dropped in this world and we were hoping for some way to get out.>

Dawson: <...Are you saying Ratigan killed him?>

"Dang that sure is totally poggers my good bitch"

-Soleil chirps, going over to help lift Igneous.-

Soleil: <Oof, why is this guy so heavy?>

-Nonetheless, they manage to carry him away. The Aggron grumbles.-

Aggron: <...Mmph. Whatever.>

 Granite(?) Cave 

-Semigloss, presumably with Soleil's help, carries Igneous to safety, or at least to away-from-the-Aggron status-

Semigloss: <Whew! That was...a lot.>

-she pokes at Igneous-

<....The robot said we have some healing items, right?>

-she digs through the pack to find something to help Igneous-

Dunsparce didn't stop being a thing or anything.

Soleil: <Oh, yeah, they did!>

-Semigloss finds a number of berries and herbs in the pack. Deeper down, though, is a small paper bag with what sounds like seeds inside it. The cover reads:-

 Granite(?) Cave 

-Semigloss examines the healing supplies-

Semigloss: <Um...there are berries but you can't give those to a fainted mon...and there are these seeds. It says something on the package; do you think it's for if someone faints?>

-she cautiously tries to feed Igneous a seed-

Dunsparce didn't stop being a thing or anything.

Mauville airport hotel

Lila had just woken up from a long nap. The bed was quite firm, but she was exhausted from travelling. She opened the curtains and looked out of the window. The street outside was bustling with people and pokemon, but one thing caught her eye.

Lila: What the heck is that Ninetales doing?!

Lila left her room and went outside the hotel to investigate.

I used to plug my deviantart here but turns out the link was too long.

-Sure enough, the flavor of the seed shocks Igneous back into consciousness.-

Igneous: <...............blech.>

Soleil: <Oh thank goodness.>

-Igneous spits out the now-tasteless seed and squirms upright.-

Igneous: <...>

Soleil: <...>

Igneous: <...I had it under control.>

 Granite(?) Cave 

Semigloss: <Did not! But you're safe now, so uh...You should probably go. And not pick any more fights with Aggron.>

-she chirps nervously-

Dunsparce didn't stop being a thing or anything.

-Igneous rolls his eyes-

Igneous: <I've had worse. But whatever, let's just get out of here!>

-Soleil and Semigloss's headsets both crackle with static, and a familiar Swellow's voice sputters across the line.-

Kattraea: Hey, y▒▒▒▒▒▒status? Th▒▒▒▒interference▒▒▒▒▒tracker signal is malfunc▒▒▒▒you safe?

-Soleil blinks, a bit offput by the voice in her ear.-

Soleil: <Uhh I could only hear like half of that but I think you asked if we're safe? We are, yeah, we just got a bit...>

-She glances at Igneous-

Soleil: <Sidetracked. We had to help someone not directly part of the mission, he looks kind of like what you might get if you lit a brick on fire.>

Igneous: <Excuse me!>

Soleil: <Just about as dense, too.>

 Granite(?) Cave 

-Semigloss squeaks as the radio comes on-

Semigloss: (trying to make herself heard) <Um, he's a Pupitar, and he was fighting an Aggron. We got him out before he could get himself any more hurt than he was already.>

Dunsparce didn't stop being a thing or anything.

Outside the Hotel, Mauville

(What Lila has noticed is, indeed, an Alolan Ninetales. The Ninetales in question is acting very strangely indeed, running from place to place with a frantic look in her eyes. People and the odd mon are semi-frequently force to lurch out of the way of the frosty fox cannonball charging across the streets, trying to look under paving stones or in the windows of buildings. All the while, she's muttering to herself - in Monese, of course.)

Isbrand: <Egads and condemnations, I cannot simply allow the Dread Mistress to sow fear in such a large city! I must locate that tentacled terror at once and put paid to her foul scheming... but where oh where might an echinoderm emissary of evil be hiding in such a vast city? Oh, it is dreadful, truly dreadful...>

Tastes better on the way back down.

Outside the hotel, Mauville

Lila lurched out of the way of the Ninetales as it ran past.

Lila: It seems distressed. It's saying something, but what? This is why I want to learn monese! Ok! Yubie! Translate please!

Yubie popped out of it's pokeball. And tried to send a telepathic message to the Ninetales.

Yubie:<Hey there! Um.. Are you ok?>

(Isbrand sees Lila and gaaaaasps.)

Isbrand: <Oh, sweet mother of Arceus the Holy One - a defenseless human child and her diminutive Pokemon accomplice!>

(The Ninetales runs up to Lila and looks at her with genuine panic in her eyes.)

Isbrand: <Oh, my dearest youngling, do you not realise what terrible peril you are in? The Dread Mistress, Kali Yuga, is loose within this very settlement! You must flee this place, before she ensnares you in her vile thorn-laced arms!>

Lila spotted the Ninetales running towards her, making alot of noise.

Lila:Yeeek! What is wrong with that Ninetales?!

Yubie:<It's saying something about danger!>

Lila: Let's get out of here! Bye you crazy Ninetales!

Lily and Yubie rushed down the pavement.

Lina: Easy, Dezi, easy...

-The Rabbid duo wave to Leo-

Volcarona!Ammy: He's not dead... He got... Tiara'd...

Enzo: <Wait, that's the tech those hooligans were developing? I heard the trumors but thought it was just bullshit...>

Svin: <So! What'd you find?>

Mul: <Something good, I hope?>

-In trying to get away Lila would bump into two people in strange Ghost-type themed outfits.

Molph the Mismagius-y Man: Yipe! Easy there!

Duolis the Aiegislash-y Woman: What's the matter?

Lila bumped into the strange figures.

Lila: Um... I'm good, thank you.. I'll just be on my way. Come on, Yubie, let's go.

Lila tried to step past the people.

(Isbrand looks utterly aghast now.)

Isbrand: <Sweet merciful egads... are those two precious youngsters not aware of the peril they are in?>

(She tries to follow Lila, but a crowd of people get in her way as she moves. Lila, Molph and Duolis should thus hear a lot of indignant vulpine yowling.)

Molph: Wha- Foxes?

Duolis: Something weird is going on...

Lila heard the Ninetales.

Lila: Not that Ninetales again... Yubie, please tell me what's going on.

Yubie explained what Issy had been saying.

Lila: What? Wait, who is Kali Yuga?
