Prologue

The visions, the flashes, all these parts of possible memories flowing through, what were these things that appeared. What does it mean? Thought of something that had the feel of conflict written all over it. The statics grew louder, the buzzing increasing, and soon….*Gasp*…as eyes widened in shock, heavy panting, looking around to realize it was just a dream. Looking straight into the clouded sky, slightly blocked by the top entrance of a subway entrance, a young white haired octoling begins to rub her head, sitting up from a slightly cold subway stairs. She looked all around her surrounding, no collection, thought, or slightest idea of how she got there. All she could gather from her situation was that right now she was in front of a subway entrance, wearing nothing more than a black t-shirt, black tights, and no shoes. "How did I….end up here?" she says to herself as she slowly gains the strength to get on her feet. The feeling of wooziness was still hung over her head, but in the distance she hears upbeat music coming from straight head, along with the slight sight of flashing lights, and moving figures. "Hmm?" the curious octoling decides to head to the sounds towards her, as she moved closer and closer, she starts to get a better view, reaching the source of the noise, appeared to her was a shopping district, colorful, and full of life. The area was filled with lots of different looking creatures, though to her remembrance they are known as inklings, the squid kids. She looks up to see a giant screen, that soon shows a picture of two figures, a shorter pink and white inkling, and a taller, more feminine looking girl who looked almost like me. The both of them begin to speaking, and she listens in curiosity.

Pearl: "YOOO! You know what time it is?

Marina: "It's Off the Hook live from Inkopolis square coming to you with today's news."

Pearl: "Before we announce the current Splat battle stages, we have some shocking news coming from way up! Marina show them what's happening."

Marina: -Spins the record- "Looks like we got some good and bad vibes on the current octoling alignment that's been passed. It's been 3 days since the agreement of Inkopolis Square's first ever Octoling Alignment passing."

Pearl: "That's right, for those who haven't heard the news yet, my girl Rina over here had finally announced her octoling status, with this reveal came tons of positive and negative opinions from our kids out here. While there are those who've come to terms of good octolings, we still have those who see octolings as octarian menace. The mixed reviews are coming from all angles, but with a higher majority, an alignment agreement was passed to allow the entrance of octolings into Inkopolis square, and to allow Marina, a known octoling to stay as well."

Marina: "Though we have yet to see any octolings come here, we hope to maybe see more come this way, and really bring an era of a new age, with more acceptance." –Nervous giggle- "I hope so I mean"

Pearl: "No worries Marina, we just got to wait and see!"

Marina: "You're right pearlie, OH! It looks like we ae out of time Pearl"

Pearl:" Dang your right, for those looking for today's schedule, the board is upfront and the stages should be up to see, until next time…."

Pearl and Marina: "DON'T GET COOKED, STAY OFF THE HOOK!"

As they finished their announcement, the white-haired octoling takes all she learned, and processed it within seconds, she learned that she is currently in Inkopolis Square, the girls on the screen were Off the Hook members Pearl, and Marina, and that currently there is an ongoing conflict about…octolings? Just as she processed all she heard…

?: "HEY! YOU THERE!"

"Huh?"

She turns her head to see three inklings, faces filled with unhidden rage, staring straight at her. Two Inkling boys, and a short haired inkling girl. Their obvious offensive intention was all over them.

Inkling Boy#1: - Takes out his splattershot- "I KNOW YOU HEAR ME! EXPLAIN YOURSELF NOW!"

Inkling Girl: "WHAT ARE YOU DOING IN OUR CITY OCTO FREAK?" –Takes out and aims splattershot pro at the octoling girl- "WELL?!"

They slowly approach the octogirl with weapons ready to shoot, menacing intentions becoming more and clearer.

Inkling Boy#2: "I don't care what the alignment says, NO OCTOLING WILL EVER BE WELCOMED HERE, EVER!" "HUH!?

The octogirl thinks fast as he speaks, with a quick spin of her feet sends a hollowed shell their way, and begins to run off into the city. Regaining their focus, they follow behind, with hateful shout as they try to catch up. The octogirl hops over tables, dodging other civilians, and avoiding shots with ease, many eyes look to see the commotion as it brushed by them like a breeze of wind. The chase continues past the stores, and soon out the view of the others. Despite the efforts to lose them, the young octoling, turns into an alleyway and into a dead end. Blocked by a 10 feet tall brick wall, no doors, or windows to escape into.

"Oh come on, really?" she says in slight frustration, trying to catch her breath, but she turned around to find the three hostile inklings, slowly closing in on her. Their weapons loaded and ready, and focused on the girl.

Inkling girl: "Nowhere to run now octofreak!" –Laughs menacingly- "You made a BIG mistake coming to Inkopolis Square!"

Inkling Boy#1: "They may have passed that alignment, but octolings will never be welcomed!" –Points his weapon right at the octogirl's head- "Your kind is wanted here, and we will make sure you and any other octarian thinking to come up knows it, even that stupid squish Marina"

Despite his words, the white-haired octoling showed no fear, or intimidation. Standing firm in place, looking at all three with her red pawed eyes, glaring them down each second. Her silence only fueled the anger of the inklings, especially the first inkling boy, who seemed irritated with her non-deterred look.

Inkling Boy#2: "THE HELL IS THAT LOOK FOR!?"

Inkling Girl: "YOU DARE LOOK DOWN ON US? LOOK AT YOUR SITUATION YOUR SURROUNDED! BACKED AGAINST A WALL, AND YOUR LOOKING DOWN ON US!?"

The glare of the octogirl only worked to fuel their anger more.

Inkling Girl: -growls- "WHY YOU STUCK UP LITTLE…!"

Inkling Boy#1: "We don't haft to take any crap from you, YOUR SPLATTED OCTO!"

The three point their weapons with fingers on the trigger ready to pull, with no other way to go, the octoling girl prepares herself to take the direct shots, closing her eyes to wait till it's over. Feeling her last seconds were among her as we speak. Just as the boy pulls his trigger. "BANG!"

With her eyes closed a few seconds longer, she opens them in shock to see that she was still in one piece but in front of her, she sees the three inklings with faces now filled with shock and startle, and to the left, revealed a stray perfectly aimed bullet splat the inkling boys splattershot covered in it. Tracing the shot back to the source, the octogirl was shocked herself over who she saw.

?: "Darn, looks like I missed." –With a soft chuckle, and a cock back of his splattershot- "I was aiming for the ignorant morons head, but my aim was off a little."

Appeared from the roof, was a dark-skinned Navy Blue inkling donning a black beanie hat, glasses, and a black hoodie. In his right hand held a gray splattershot in his hand, he looked down at the three with a calm, but also disgusted look as he ready to aim again.

Inkling Boy#2: -shocked-"No way, that couldn't be, but why is he here?"

Inkling Girl: "Hey! STAY OUT OF THIS! THIS IS BETWEEN US AND- *Ting* HUUUH!?"

Just as the inkling girl was about to aim for him, another stray bullet flies by at her from the other side, a dark red ink bullet strikes the girl's hand, knocking her weapon across the alleyway. The faces of the inklings increase more and more with fear, as they shockingly turn to see the other figure. To the other side was a Dark-skinned Dark red inkling boy, wielding a pair of dualies, he shouts over to the Navy Blue Inkling.

?: "Come on Quest, what's all that practice getting you if you can't even get a simple head?" –Spinning one pistol in the right hand, aiming at the three with other, he says jokingly- "Falling behind dontcha think?"

Quest: -chuckles- "You wish you could keep up with my aim Mez."

The octoling girl looked both sides very confused, she was trying to process what was going on, on the left was the Navy Blue inkling, and to the right there was a Dark Red Inkling sporting a black short sleeved shirt, and shades hiding the color of his eyes. The three inklings in front of her were shaking like startled jellyfish, they couldn't even try to play brave in the face of them. She wondered what about these two boys made them so scared off their mind.

Inkling Girl: "What in the cop? WHAT THE COOOOP!?"

Inkling Boy#2:-he drops his weapon in pure fear, looking to his left and right purely shocked- "I don't believe my eyes, wha- WHAT ARE TWO OF THE OMEGA SQUAD DOING HERE?!"

"Omega…Squad?"

Her curiosity was peaked, she heard the name Omega Squad, and from the look of it, they must be a pretty big deal to make these three ink themselves this badly. While the two were standing in fear, the first inkling boy shouts to the both of them.

Inkling Boy#1: -shouts nervously- "W-WE WEREN'T DOING ANYTHING WRONG, WE JUST RIDDING OF THIS SCU-!"

?: "I'm sorry, but what were you about to say?" – His footsteps could be heard from the entrance of the alleyway- "I know you aren't about to call this young lady scum were you, cause I see scum and it's definitely not her."

From the entrance of the alleyway, a third much taller figure appears, his footsteps being heard from across the way. Each wave of sound as the footsteps approached sent shockwaves of terror up all three inkling spines, as the figure is seen, the second inkling boy drops to his knees, eyes widen. The figure was tan-skinned royal blue inkling, sporting a solid gray hoodie, and a pair of black framed glasses. He was shown to be an inch taller than all three of the inklings in front of her. His brown eyes giving off a terrifyingly calm stare as he reached. As he walked, the two known as Quest and Mez hop down from each side, joining him with weapons in hand.

Inkling Boy#2: -drops down- "Its him…."

Inkling Boy#1: "Ahh….No way, its….Mega?"

Mega, just the mention of his name, she saw it sent chills down their spines as he stood there staring them down. All three of the known Omega Squad were standing there with disgusted looks, despite wondering why they were here, she was just glad to be alive, she stood there and listened as the two groups went back and forth.

Inkling#1:"Oh come on M-Mega! YOU CAN SERIOUSLY BE HERE TO DEFEND-"

Mega: "Defend an obviously innocent girl from judgmental, hateful, scum such as yourselves? I believe I seriously am."

Inkling Boy#2 and Inkling Girl: "WHAAAAAAT?"

Inkling Boy#1: "Scum!? We aren't the scum here, this octarian over here was causing trouble!"

Quest: "Doing what exactly?"

The Inkling Boy started to sweat profusely, he nervously smiles"

Inkling Boy#1: "W-well, you see-"

Quest: "Because from what it looks like, she has no weapon, no menacing intentions, and obviously looks confused about what's around her, while on the other hand, the three of you were aiming weapons, throwing slares, and was full of menacing intent, so again who's the scum here?"

Mez: "Can I just shoot em and get it over with, their faces are messing with my mood"

Mega: -raises a hand up to lower weapons- "No Mez, no need for that." –he looks back at the inkling boy- "Now look here you can walk away right now and never set foot near her again, or you can make this more difficult for yourself."

Inkling Boy#1: "You're INSANE! If you think we are just gonna step away from this octarian tra-! GAH!"

Before he could finish, a giant thumb caused vibrations to shake the ground, leaving the boy to gasp in shock. The cause of the quake came from the giant roller that Mega pulled out, he gave the boy an angered stare maintaining his calm demeanor as well. His roller was enough to send the other two running in the blink.

Mega:-resting on his Gold Dynamo Roller- "Now I'm giving you an option, and yet you still turn to insulting the octogirl? Sounds like you're going to be difficult about this, hmm?" –Sees the fear in the inkling boys trembling eyes- "Or are you going to take the option along with your lowlife friends."

The Inkling Boy trembling from immense fear, leaves a huge trail of yellow ink as he runs off, fearing for his almost splatted life, he turn into a squid and swims off in a shriek. Mez and Quest laughed as a trail of yellow was left, hi-fiving as they relish in the accomplishment, Mega looks at both boys with a smile.

Mega: -puts his roller away-"Nice ones guys, though to be clear both your aims were off."

Mez and Quest: "Oh shut up Mega!"

The boys with each other as the octogirl watches in confusion, but slightly smiles as their demeanor was quite, entertaining. The smile goes away as Mega looks over to her, and walks towards her. She steps back slowly as she was still startled from before, but stopped as he got closer.

Mega: "Hey, are you alright? They didn't hurt you did they? –He got closer to her with each stop, and stop right in front of her- "That had to been a bad experience for your first time here, huh? Here…-he lends out a hand, with a gentle smile- Lets gets you out of here, and out of that gear. Oh what's ya name by the way?

-Hesitant at first, she grabs his hand and looks up at him- "My name?"

For a moment she hesitated, she looked down as she had no memory of a name, or anything of before she came to Inkopolis square. Despite this, the boys gave her a reassuring smile, and with that she smiled back. With that, it was the start of a new beginning.

Chapter 1: Biscuit, and the Charger Boys

PART 1:

After seconds of hesitation, she looks up to Mega with a look of concern.

"My name is…I don't know…" She looks away without knowing how else to answer, Mega looks back at the boys, who looked just as concerned as he did, placing a hand on her shoulder, he smiles and looks back at the octogirl with reassurance.

Mega: "We'll get back to that bridge later on, but first." – He looks at her current gear, shaking his head- "Let's get you in some better gear, you look like something Judd clawed up and threw out."

Quest: "You're lucky Judd isn't here to hear that, we'd be in some shit if we gave lil Judd a laugh"

Mez: "I'd say she looks more like Sheldon picked her clothes out, definitely looks like it." –Laughs-

Quest lightly smacks Mez over the back of the head, chuckling along with him as the boys begin to head out the alley, Mega follows behind them, looking back to her, and lightly nudges his head for her to follow. She quickly catches up and follows the three inkling boys. The whole walk back, the boys chatted along about a previous splat zone battle. Mez talks about when he took out haft a four man team within second, and Quest replies about when he took out the other two with one swing of his Ink brush. The chat went on and on until they made it back to the main plaza of Inkopolis Square. As she kept following them, she notices the other inklings chatting amongst each other, hearing the whispers slightly. "Hey is that them? Holy Shellfish it is!" "It's thee Squad Omega! In the flesh." "They're gear is always on point!""Soooooo fresh!" "It's really them, man Mega looks even calm-minded in person" "Quest is soooooo cool!" "I wish I could get some time with Mez, I heard you always have a good time with him." The whispers kept going as we walked, and they were all about how great these guys were. She listened the whole way, looking around at all the décor. Seeing Judd, and Lil Judd, a huge entrance, and stores galore. After 20 minutes of walking, the octoling girl finally decided to ask.

"Hey Mega was it? If you don't mind can I ask two questions pondering my head?"

Mega:-Looks back at the octogirl- "Go ahead."

"Okay first, where exactly are we going? We been walking since the alleyway and you haven't even explained anything."

Mega: "Well to answer that, we are heading back to our base, to get you freshened up, it's not too far ahead." –He looks forward and cleans off his glasses-

"Good to hear, not gonna lie my feet are killing me."

Mez: "Probably because you've been running all over the place barefoot?"

The octogirl looked down, as a bright blue blush appears on her face. She didn't even think about her feet until now, especially from all the running. The boys chuckle amongst themselves with Quest looking back at her.

Quest: "Don't worry, we have some good gear you can slip in, something that will help in the long run."

"Thanks, it's really appreciated."

Mega:" Right this way, Girl."

After what felt like a walk and a mile, the four finally reached their destination. In front of them was a door covered in graffiti, a passcode lock can be seen over the knob, and the area seemed to be quiet for the most part. Mega walks up and types in the passcode, while the others kept guard to make sure no one was looking, or around to see him type. Standing there slightly confused, she watches as Mega finishes typing the passcode. He opens the door, and gesture for the octogirl to go down first.

Mega: "Ladies first." –he notices her hesitance to enter, and smiles with assurance- "Well? Don't just stand there, your feet aren't gonna rest themselves."

With the extra reassurance, she finally moves her feet, and enters the door which lead to a pair of stairs heading down, into the dark stairway she went, and the boys followed behind. She was glad to know that the stairs were on a few inches down, and soon there was a light ahead. As she got closer, the room ahead of her revealed a brown carpet with its softness feeling like feathers on her feet. At the end of the stairs was the base, she looked around at the room which had a cozy, chill, and somewhat homey vibe to it. There were beanbag chairs, and giant TV, a kitchen waaaaaaaay in the back, posters of Off the Hook, and another group known as the Squid Sister. There was even doors in the back which I guessed was other rooms. The place smelled as fresh as it looked. The boys walked ahead with Mez making his way to the beanbag chair closest to the door, Mega heading to the other side to hang his weapon, and Quest heading to a closet in front of him. While the three of them were occupied, the octogirl took the time to observe all her surroundings.

"So what I really want to know is, why did you three help me? How did you guys even know I was there?"

She asked with curiosity in her voice, crossing her arms as if there had to be something up. No one would just save anybody they didn't know at all. Mega who was sitting at the counter, spins his chair to face her, with his phone in his hand.

Mega: "For starters, we can't stand when someone is being wronged for something they didn't do, and though we aren't huge supporters of the alignment, we think it's a good thing that's happened here, that including Marina's octoling status reveal."

Mez: -playing a game on the Nintendo, his eyes never leaving the screen for a second as he speaks- "Shows that there are good octolings in the world, know what we're saying?"

She looks over at Mez and nods in agreement, she had no ill intention, and it was good to know that they knew that. That was all that mattered at the moment.

Mega: -swiping through his phone- "As for how we found you."

Mega finishes swiping and turns his phone to show the octogirl, a picture of her running from the three inklings, with a message saying "Guys you need to check this out." The ID only said the message was from someone named K, nothing more. She looked at the phone surprised that despite the crowd someone was able to get a picture of her.

Mega: "Our boys K and Oni caught sight of you while you were being chased, and were able to send a picture to us at the perfect time."

"Impossible, how were they able to spot me? You would haft to have…"

Mega: "Keen eyes? Well that's our chargers for you, can spot a target for miles whether it's a shooter."

Mez: "Or a Inker" –laughs-

Mega looks over at Mez with eyes of annoyance, before looking back at the girl. She looked confused at what Mez meant by Inker, though she decided not to ask as she was still wondering about the charger boys, K and Oni.

"Are K and Oni part of your squad?"

Mega: "Correct, they are two of our main chargers." –He gets up from the chair- "Speaking of names, after you get change we will properly introduce ourselves."

As he says that, Quest comes back with a gear set ready for her.

Quest: "Here you are, I picked out a gear set that seems like a match for you." –He hands her the gear, and points her to the bathroom- "Make a right as soon as you go past the kitchen, and the bathroom is right there, If you need something just Holla."

-She takes the gear from Quest, and heads where he directed- "Thanks, I'll be right out." –She looks back as she walks for a moment before turning back and walking into the bathroom-

She closes the door behind her and locks it, the bathroom was surprisingly clean for a place filled with a bunch of guys. She sets the gear on top of the toilet seat and starts getting unchanged. Removing the black shirt, and tights, she sets them aside next to the tub. She looks in the mirror with a feint sigh, and starts to dress in the gear given to her. Also while admire the gear, especially the shoes. After 10 minutes, she was now finished putting on the gear. Now sporting a snow white V-neck hoodie with a black sleeveless shirt underneath, a rainbow splat mask around her neck, Galaxy ripped tights, and black and white punk boots, she takes one last good look in the mirror and uses her hand to slightly fix her short sky blue tipped tentacle cover her eye. Situated, she exits the bathroom and meets back with the boys who are sitting around the TV.

"Well? How does it look?"

The boys look over at her in awe, from head to toe they were impressed with how well the gear suited her. She stood waiting for a reply from them as they stare.

"Guys?"

Quest: "I knew I picked the right set up, best gear these eyes could find, right from Pearl brand." –He walks over and around the octoling, observing her from all angles-"I always impress myself with my eye for gear"

Mez: "Hmm…you know, maybe we can really test that gear out, one on one?" –Wink-

Mega: "Don't even think about it Mez, Now." –He walks over to her- "For proper introductions, I'll start it off" –he sticks out his hand for a shake- "My names Mega, I'm the leader of Squad Omega, and the groups Roller main user. It's a pleasure to have you with us." –He says with a smile-

-She shakes his hand back, and smiles- "Nice to meet you, Mega."

Mez: -walks over and lightly pushes Mega aside- "Names Mezino, But you can call me Mez the man" –he grabs her hand and plants a kiss on her hand- "You're looking at the second in command, Main Dualies user, the best there is here. Hope you stick around."

She looks him with a slight blue blush on her face and a nervous smile.

"I'll j-just stick with calling you Mez, it's nice to meet you though."

Mez chuckles at her nervous gesture before being pulled off by Mega. He limps his arms over Mega's as he's carried a short distance away from her.

Quest: "All right Mez, back down. We don't need you scaring the girl off before getting to know her" –he walks over with his hands in his pocket, standing right in front of her, with a smile- "Tech man Quest, third in command. I'm the man with the plan, and gear expert. As you seen, I'm the Splattershot Pro Main of the group. Glad to have you here." –He takes one hand out of his hood pocket and hold it out to her-

"Felling more glad to be here, and thanks again for the gear" –she sticks her hand out to shake his, and pulls back-

Mega: "Now that we have given you a bit about us, we can understand that you don't remember much yourself. Do you think you can try to think about your name a little at least?"

She takes a moment to think of the question. As she tries to think back on her name, the sudden visions appeared again, causing a shock of pain to her head. She starts to see parts of goggled figures, a tank with a figure, and soon heard a letter. The boys give her looks of concern as she held her head in pain. Mega takes a few steps towards her.

Mega: "Hey, you good over there?"

"B."

Boys: "Hmm?"

B: "I remember the letter B, It may have something to do with my name, but that's all I can muster, sorry."

Mez: "Well we can't just call you B, maybe we can call you something in the meantime like…..Britt"

Quest: -he smacks Mez over the head- "Come on now Mez, Britt, really? That's so lame."

Mega: "Why not call her Beverly?"

Quest and Mez: "Eww no!"

Mez: -he looks over at Quest- "Well I don't see you coming up with anything."

As the boys continued to go back and forth about a temporary name. B sits down on the closest beanbag chair and starts to think to herself as they bickered. A thing came to mind her head, something she seemed to remember enjoying. She remembered sweet aromas going through her head, along with something she remembered. Just as she was about to hear the word in her head, she spoke a name out loud.

B: "Biscuit?"

The boys stopped bickering amongst themselves, and looked directly at B.

B: "Why not call me, Biscuit?" –She says with a nervous tone, and a shy smile-

The boys look at each other, then back at her. All giving her a smile of agreement, and thumbs up. They thought the name was perfect for her. Nodding of approval. She looked at them and her shy smile turn into a big toothy one as she was glad to find a name for herself. From that day forth, she will go by the Name, Biscuit.
