"Everything was fine as long as I was useful."
There was a pause.
"When they didn't need me anymore, that's when everything changed."

Anger began to well up in the girl again. "They made you think that usefulness meant friendship?!" she cried, outraged. "That's horrible! And stupid!" Grabbing a rock nearby, she tossed it into the spring, watching it plop into the water and ripple outward. "I hope they get what they deserve."

The creature have an unseen tilt of the head as she witnessed Tymikos display of anger.
"What do they deserve?"

"Well...I guess I'm not someone who would be able to judge, since I'm not aware of all the things they put you through, but..." Her hands balled into fists at her sides. "At the very least they should be subjected to the same experience you had so they know how you felt. Maybe that might make them regret what they did." Standing up, the girl looked upward, trying to peer into the ever-darkening tree canopy. "Do you have a name?"

There was another pause of consideration. It seemed fair to bestow the same treatment upon those that hurt her, yes. That made sense.
"Name?" ... "PE150M2.8 is what they called me."

She shook her head. "That won't do. Do you have anything you like to be called? Like...I go by Tymiko, but 'Ty' is shorter, so people just call me that."

"I... Don't know," she admitted, not really sure what she would like to be called. She had always had a number, and didn't really know what to call herself.

"Hmm...well would you like a name?" the girl asked. "You don't have to have one if you don't want to, I suppose. But...would you be willing to come out so I can see you?" Folding her hands in front of her, she said, "I promise I won't do anything you don't want me to. I just want to know who I have the pleasure of talking to."

There was a moments hesitation but there was a light rustling of leaves before the creature jumped from its perch. Landing lightly upon her feet, a pair of blue eyes looked up and focused on Tymiko before the Pokemon stood at full height.
A blue toned Mewtwo stood before her, tail swaying lightly back and forth.
"I would like a name."
Though she spoke her mouth didn't move.

Tymiko tensed instinctively when she heard the rustling, but she forced her restless body to remain still as her conversation partner finally came into view. Eyes widening, her lips parted slightly in surprise.
"I remember you," she said softly. "You were that Mewtwo in Camphoreon before. The one looking for food." Studying the being before her, Ty could only think of how the pokemon seemed to exude a powerful beauty. Were all Mewtwo like this, she wondered, or just this one in particular?
"If you want a name, you should have one. I'm sure it's the least of what you deserve." Tapping a finger lightly against her chin, Ty suggested, "How about Indigo? You're such a pretty indigo blue, and that color is associated with wisdom and justice." She met the creature's intense gaze. "A defender of rights to the end."

The Mewtwo gave a silent nod at Tymiko. Yes she was the one looking for food then. Hungry and afraid, though not much had changed since then really.
She then looked down in incertainty at the name and it's meaning. The color made sense but wisdom and justice?
"Are you sure that really fits me?" She didn't think she was all that wise and she'd never defended anything.

"You don't think it does?" the girl asked carefully, her tone impartial. "We are who we choose to be, after all, so only you can say so. But personally I think that your experiences have provided you with the kind of wisdom that's not easy to come by and you paid a high price to get it."
"As for justice," she continued, "from the sound of it, you seemed like you were drawn to me because we both felt alone and lost. But you helped me. I can't help but wonder if you did that to show me the kindness that you were not given but wished you had."
Regarding the legendary with a certain fondness, she said, "I think I'd call that justice. And I think you have a great potential to defend what you consider important to you, like your freedom and your life. There's a saying that goes, 'if you don't stand for anything, then you'll fall for everything'. Do you understand what that means?"

Putting a round digit to her short snout as she listened, the Mewtwo quietly considered Tymiko's words. After a few moments of thought she looked back to the girl, putting her arm down and nodding.
"Then I will accept this name."

The girl offered the pokemon a faint smile. "I am honored, then, Indigo."
With another cursory look about at her surroundings, Tymiko sighed. "It's very nice to have met you, and I know you don't want to be alone. I don't either," she said seriously. "However, I don't think you would like to remain with me. Not long ago, I did something that will cause others to come after me." She looked back at the Mewtwo and met her intense gaze.
"I don't think that after all the trouble you took to escape those people who betrayed you, you would want to be discovered by more untrustworthy humans intent on causing harm. As much as it pains me to say so, I think we should part ways. At least for now." She stared down at the spring. "Perhaps you will find someone yet worthy of your company, friendship, and kindness."

"I don't want someone else," she stated flatly.
"They will come for me too. It's why I hide here. I can protect you. You don't have to leave."
It was an almost pleading sound that came from the Mewtwo. She didn't want to be alone, but didn't want to be found either.
She didn't want to be abandoned, not again.
