Before anyone asks, this is a story with similar elements to ARandomInterloper's The Boy from
Cirrina. However, it does not feature the main character from that story at this time. If that
character appears in the future, that will depend on Interloper.
Splatoon
The Inkling in Blue
In a train station just outside Calamari County, an Inkling boy with a gray crew cut hairstyle, a blue
jacket, shades, and black boots approached the clerk. "Hello." The clerk faced him. "Good morning.
Where are you heading?" "Inkopolis." The clerk wasn't surprised. "Name?" The Inkling faced him. "I go by
Akiru." He nodded. "Fare is 2,000." Akiru paid the fare. "All right, here is your ticket. Train leaves in five
minutes." Akiru faced him. "I'll be there." He sat in the waiting area, and boarded the train when it was
time. During the train ride, he read the book he'd found in his old home five years ago. He continued to
read and heard the following call. "Approaching Inkopolis Station. All for Inkopolis, get ready to
disembark." Atlantic put his book away. When the train arrived, he stepped into the city, and walked
towards Inkopolis Square. He saw someone handing something to a receptionist, and watched as the
person approached him. "Hey, you new around here?" He nodded. "Here. I don't need this anymore." He
handed him a Splattershot Jr. Akiru nodded. "Thank you." He approached the registration desk, and said,
"Hello." The registrator faced him. "Oh, applying for a Turf War ID?" He nodded. "One second." She
picked up a piece of paper. "Battle name?" "Akiru." "Mm hmm. How old are you?" "19." "Wow, late start.
Any relations in the city?" "Yes, but I haven't met them yet." She nodded. "Okay, you're good to go."
"Thank you." He walked towards the Deca Tower, determined to make enough money to rent an
apartment and buy groceries. He played ten matches, and hit level 4. He was able to rent an apartment
in Flounder Heights and get groceries. He still had enough money for other items, but decided to wait to
buy them. He had an air mattress in his luggage, and pumped it up for tonight. 'I'll look for a bed
tomorrow.' As he thought this, a knock came on the door. "Huh?" He opened it, to see an elderly Inkling
facing him. "Atlantic." Atlantic glared at the old squid. "How do you know my name?" The Inkling
answered, "I was there when you were born. My name is Craig Cuttlefish. I saw you playing in Turf War.
How long have you been in the city?" Atlantic faced him. 'My grandfather.' "A few hours." Craig nodded.
"Does your sister know you're here?" Atlantic sighed. "As far as I know, she doesn't even know I exist. I
prefer to keep it that way. It's the only way I can keep others from taking advantage of her." Craig
sighed. "You have much to learn, young one." Atlantic faced him. "What?"
