SUPERMASTOUR PRESENTS
The Pretty Good Inkman
INTRO
Who will take up the people's cause?
Who will hear the Inkling's cry?
Will some use a minute to take a pause?
And help them... even try?
There must be one to defend the weak!
To uphold justice!
To bring out the light when the darkness has won!
I will be the one!
The one to protect them all!
The one to prevent the fall!
Even if I do it alone I shall!
Watch out evil doers!
Your end is nigh!
The Slough of Despair will go dry!
For I will end your curse tonight!
I will bring the righteous fight!
From threats near or far I will be there!
For the strong and the weak, I will be there!
For the old and the young, I will be there!
To fight evil is my cause!
To take down Phantoms in the night!
To protect the good is my life!
I will do it for the right!
I am... The Inkman!

A lone figure stood on the top of the circle pad of the Inkopolis tower.
However, he was not a metallic entity of pure death...
This figure was wearing what seemed to be a blue spandex suit that only left his head uncovered. On this suit was a yellow circle on the chest with the letters IM in red and also had pieces of yellow on his flanks.
A closer inspection revealed he was also wearing yellow rubber gloves and large metallic boots that looked too clunky to be comfortable, as well as being crudely painted yellow with spray-paint to match the rest of his wardrobe. He also had a metal helmet that was also crudely painted with yellow spray-paint and what appeared to be a large black visor covering the top half of his face, a blue bandanna covered the lower half. His two Inkling ponytails stuck out of a hole at the top back of the said helmet, allowing them to flow freely around. He wore a yellow cape which seemed soft yet somewhat firm, and also shone in the sun.
"Inkopolis..." the figure mumbled as he looked at the great city.
"Hey!" a voice yelled, revealing a maintenance jellyman coming out of the chamber from a rooftop hatch, "You're not of supposed to being here!" he growled and shook his tentacle.
"Huh?" the figure turned, "Who are- Hey!" he yelled when the maintenance worker threw a rag at him.
"Getting of down!" the maintenance jellyman yelled, "It is of dangerous!"
"Danger does not stop The Inkman!" the figure exclaimed, "I must defend the city!" he yelled and ran, "Let's g-AHHH!" he stopped at the edge of the chamber, screaming when he saw the long distance to the ground.
"You of fool!"the jellyman ran to him, "Gettings back here!"
"Wah wah wah wah!" The Inkman wobbled at the edge, "Heph!" he did a little jump back, landing safely on his behind. After shaking himself off, he stood back up and looked at the jellyman, "I was just calculating the jumping distance." he exclaimed.
"You of fool!" the jellyman shook his squeegee, "Get out of here!"
"Fear not, citizen!" The Inkman grinned, "My specially built poly-vinyl cape can lock on, allowing me the ability to glide!" he yelled, then sprinted off, jumping at the edge of the structure and taking off.
"I live in world of idiotics." the jellyman grumbled as he saw the figure soar off.

The Inkman soared off in the plain afternoon sky in the middle of Inkopolis Square and still did not get noticed.
"I must look for a citizen to protect!" The Inkman said as he looked down, "Thanks to the Inkman's Inkredible Ink Vision, he can spot crime up to ten miles away!" he cheered, unaware that there was something looming in front of him.
The Inkman was soaring straight into a tall building!
"Da-da-da-da!" The Inkman sung, "Inkman! Aw-BWAH!" he screamed when he looked ahead of him, and the windows of the building that were now too close to avoid.

"And that's the new clothesline from Tentatek." a business inkling told those spectating his meeting, "Hopefully this new line will help us compete with Krak-on's new l-"
KRASH! The window in the conference room crashed and broke when the Inkman went through.
"Ah!" the business inklings screamed in shock and fright.
"Argh!" The Inkman groaned as he laid on the floor, "Ah... Goodness gracious!" he stood and shook some stray glass off his body.
"Who are you!?" one of the businessmen, a horseshoe crab man, yelled.
"I am the Defender of Inkopolis!" the Inkman exclaimed, "Just..." he turned to the broken window, "I was just testing the strength of your windows... You need some new ones." he said sheepishly.
"Yes, and you're going to pay for them!" another business inkling yelled, "Security!" he yelled.
"Wait!" The Inkman said, "Do not worry! I am the Inkman!" he exclaimed, "And with my super strength, I will cover the broken window with something!" he yelled and looked around.
"No! You are going to get out!" the CEO of Tentatek yelled, "Get out! Security!" he called out once more.
"Ah ha!" The Inkman smiled when he saw a futon by the main doors, "That will do!" he sprinted over towards the furniture.
"Security!" the CEO yelled once more.
"Now time to use my super strength!" The Inkman told the business people as he grabbed hold of one end of the futon, "Herph!" he groaned as he tried to lift it up, "HERGH!" he strained.
"What is it!?" some Security Shrimp came through the door, "What is the problem?"
"HA!" The Inkman pushed the futon towards the door, knocking down both security guards.
"Oof!" "AH!" the two Shrimpites grunted as the fell to the ground.
"If you don't help around, it's better to stay on the ground!" The Inkman growled as he saw the two on the floor, "Now, time to move this!" he pointed up and once again tried to lift the futon. After a few moments of straining, The Inkman finally became tired.
"Perhaps a Futon isn't the best thing for this." the hero said as he stepped away from it, "Maybe... Ah! Curtains!" he claimed when he saw some decorative curtains on the wall to the left of the main doors.
"Get him already!" the CEO told the fumbling guards who were barely standing up.
"Alright!" the first Shrimpite grumbled, "Sir, you're coming with us!"
"Hold up!" The Inkman said as he tried to remove the curtains.
"Sir, now!" the second Shrimpite ordered him.
"Hold..." The Inkman pulled with all his might, "ON!" he yelled and the pole holding the curtains shot out, knocking the two guards back down into the ground.
"Ooof!" "ARGH!" the guards were struck in the head and knocked out.
"I told you!" The Inkman grumbled, "If you do not help, it's best to lay on kelp!" he rolled up the curtain and walked up to the frame that held the broken window.
"Huh..." the CEO sighed as he saw the Inkman reach for the top.
"I may need a hammer." The Inkman muttered, "To put these up... Oh!" he exclaimed, "Fret not! I will just use my Super Inkredible Super-Glue!" he pulled out a small squirt bottle, "One dab of this and whatever has been pasted stays pasted!" he smiled as he squirted a bit of the glue on the rod and the wall.
"Argh..." the guards groaned as they stood back up.
"I hate this guy..." the first guard grumbled as they looked at him, "Hey! Get down!" the two walked towards the Inkman.
"I'm almost done." The Inkman said as he placed another dab on the opposite end, "Just wait til-"
"Get down!" the second guard shook the chair the hero was standing on.
"Woah!" The Inkman dropped his glue bottle, making it splash when it hit the ground.
"Ah!" the guards yelled when the glue covered their shoes.
"Oh no!" The Inkman grumbled as he looked at the mess, stepping down and two the side to get a new view.
"You'll get it now!" the first guard growled and lunged for him, however, he did not move!
"What the?!" the second guard looked at his feet, which were stuck to the ground.
"I warned you about Inkman's Super Inkredible Super-Glue!" the Inkman growled, "Nothing can overcome its bonding strength!" he claimed, "Well... except the Inkman's own Devastating Strength!" he flexed his biceps, then grabbed the second guard by the waist.
"What are you-"
"Herph!" The Inkman groaned as he tried to lift the guard off the floor.
"Ah!" the guard yelled, "Let go! You're hurting me!"
"HA!" The Inkman gave one last tug, and the guard shot out of his boots!
"Wah!" the second guard fell to the ground.
"Well..." The Inkman looked to the ground, where the boots were still on, "At least I saved you! Because I am the guardian of Inklings, not of boots!" he exclaimed, "now time for you, my friend!" he walked over to the first guard.
"What's going on?" a new presence entered the room, it appeared to be a secretary, a young female inkling with lime green hair, "Sir? What happened?!" she asked as she saw the mess.
"I happened." The Inkman responded, "The Inkman himself has helped this very meeting by fixing the window that was broken, then I saved this guard from eternal imprisonment on the ground!" he claimed, "All in a days work, sweet stuff!" he muttered and leaned on the curtains.
However, since there was nothing behind the curtains... The Inkman fell right through.
"WOAH!" The Inkman yelled as he fell out of the building, shocking everyone inside the building.
"That fool!" the CEO of Tentatek ran to the window, then saw The Inkman glide away into the distance.

"I am! The Inkman!" The Inkman yelled as he soared through the streets of Inkopolis, looking for another person- or group of people- to help or protect.
"Da-da-da-da! Inkman! AWAY!"
