Chapter 1: Welcome To Inkopolis
So this is my first Splatoon story in awhile so I'm sorry if it's cringe. Also this is my first story where it will be third person with some first person moments. Again I'm sorry if it's c-c-cringe....
'Thoughts'
"Speech"
When the Helicopter landed at Moray Towers, there were so many things racing through Agent 8's mind. How would he adjust to living in inkopolis? Inklings and Octolings has been at odds for a century, how would the inklings react to an octoling walking among them? These thoughts plagued 8's mind as he took in the beautiful sights Moray Towers has to offer. 'Is this the sun?' He wondered as he hovered his hand over his eyes as the rays hit him. 'It's so beautiful...yet so painful to look at!' 8 rubbed his eyes from looking straight into the sun.
"Don't look into the sun." He heard a voice behind him say. 8 turned around and saw 3 walking up towards him. "The UV rays can do a number on your eyes."
"Noted." 8 replied as he rubbed his left eye. "So this is the surface? It's......"
"Beautiful?"
"Yeah.." 8 let out a shaky sigh, he was still rattled from the fight. "I thought I would be stuck in that underground subway forever. Those horrid test almost made me go insane."
3 gave 8 a sympathetic look. "Your free now." Agent 3 didn't know why, but she felt guilty that she couldn't protect him, or any octoling. Despite Inklings & Octolings being sworn enemies, she has always had a ever growing curiosity about them. She has always wondered what it was like to be an Octoling before ever since she was recruited into the Splatoon.
'Maybe' Agent 8 thought. 'I still have no memories about who I am, just these poems.' Agent 8 shook his head and smiled. 'Then again, I should be happy that I'm finally free.'
Pearl then walked up behind them "Yo Guys!" 8 flinched at her high pitched voice. "Lets get off the chopper already!"
"Yup!" Agent 8 responded as he hopped off the platform. Agent 3 did the same, and the army of helicopters flew off.
3 raised an eyebrow as she put her hero shot away "So? What happens now?"
"For me it's to go home!" Pearl answered. "Me and Marina got a showing tomorrow! Don't worry 8 we will be sure to mention you as well!
"Mention me?" 8 asked, confused.
Marina walked up Besides 8. "What Pearlie means is we well talk about you on our show and let people know your not a threat. Since you are an octoling like me people might be a bit weary."
"But your an octoling. Aren't they weary of you as well?"
Pearl then butted in. "No! Atleast not that much! I'm sure you'll be fine 8, but you never know! Your not famous like us so they may not accept you so easily!"
"Pearl!" Marina scolded. "Fame has nothing to do with it! They would accept 8 whether he is famous or not!"
Pearl grunted. "Yeah yeah. Anyways we need to address something before we leave!"
Cap'n raises his eyebrow. "And what would that be?"
"Where is 8 going to live?" Pearl did make a good point. Agent 8 didn't know where he would live, and it's not like he had loads of money at his disposal. 8 sighed 'Yup, I'm homeless.'
"He could stay with me and my granddaughters." Cap'n suggested. "Be a tight fit, but it would work."
Pearl huffed. "I don't think Marie or Callie would take kindly to a random octoling living with them..."
Cap'n began to rant. "This is no random octoling! His heart was touched by the calamari inkantation! Anyone who hears that heaven melody is no foe of mine!"
8 sweat dropped. "I can just rent an apartment. I have money...."
Agent 3 raised an eyebrow. She doubts he would have enough. "You do? How much?"
"Yes, and not much. But it should be enough to rent an apartment for awhile..." 8 sighed as he checked his CQ for how much gold he had. 'Carp' "You know what...never mind."
Agent 3 peered over his shoulder and chuckled. "200 gold won't get you even the cheapest apartment."
8 groaned. He knew she was right, but he was also to stubborn to admit it. So 8 just stayed silent as he put his CQ back in pocket.
Marina piped up. "He could stay with us at our place. Their is plenty of room, and we are so busy we are never their anyway so he would have the entire place to himself."
Agent 8 sighed, he hated being alone. Agent 3 took notice of him sighing. "Actually 8."
8 turned at the sound of 3's voice. "Before I left with the Cap'n, My roommate told me he was going to move out of our apartment. Assuming he probably finished packing and moved out while I was gone, you can stay with me if you'd like."
Agent 8 smiled at this. He didn't want to be alone at Marina & Pearls apartment. "That sounds great."
