Author's Note: Hiya, my name is Chris and this is the first chapter of my first Fanfiction. Well, more like an introduction, but you get the idea. I want to thank TrickyJebus for helping me start out on Fanfiction. If you have any criticism, feel free to let me know. I am always willing to accept it and reflect on it in future chapters. Anyways, I hope you enjoy and take care!
Inkopolis, a city that rolls right off your tongue. It's a fine city on a fine island that is located just north of the equator in the Pacific Ocean. Its primary inhabitants are a species of cephalopod known as Inklings. They are humanoid kids that can transform into squids at will. Their favorite form of entertainment is a sport called Turf Wars, where two teams of four try to cover the most turf with their respective colored ink in a matter of three minutes. Almost everyone in Inkopolis enjoys a good turf war battle and the entire city is built around this basic sport.
At the center of it all is Inkopolis Square, the gathering place of most Inklings. The square's biggest attraction is Inkopolis Tower, where inklings can queue for turf war battles. The square is also outfitted with various shops in a small strip mall called the Booyah Base, where squids can buy an assortment of gear. On the other side of the plaza is the Battle Dojo, where Inklings can go head to head in a target-based turf war battle where you have to shoot balloons, and Inkopolis Studios, a television studio where most television programs are taped, edited and broadcasted. The most notable show is Inkopolis News, hosted by Inkopolis' most popular celebrities, The Squid Sisters Callie and Marie, two cousins who became musicians after mostly retiring from the New Squidbeak Splatoon.
Speaking of the New Squidbeak Splatoon, now we come to the hero of this story, Shaunathan Cephapod, or simply just Shaun. Shaun is a 16 year old A-rank Inkling who is obsessed with Turf Wars. He usually wears his beloved set of gear consisting of a white headband, an 8-bit Fishfry shirt and a pair of green Converses, which give him the strength he needs to win various battles. He is is the third agent of the New Squidbeak Splatoon and recently returned from an important journey of rescuing the Great Zapfish. The Great Zapfish is a gigantic electric fish that provides all of the power and electricity to Inkopolis, and it was stolen by the Octarians, a race of octopus humanoids led by an octoling named DJ Octavio. The Octarians attempted to steal the Great Zapfish to get enough power to take ove Inkopolisr, but Shaun, with help from the Squid Sisters managed to defeat Octavio and return the Great Zapfish to its rightful spot in front of Inkopolis Tower.
Despite saving Inkopolis from losing its primary power supply, Shaun hasn't really received much recognition. Being disguised as Agent 3 nobody really knew who he was or even cared for that long. With no problems in his city, he went back to living his normal life as a 16-year old squid in the suburbs of Inkopolis. Worst part was that his normal life wasn't so fun. After he became an adult when he turned 14, his parents gave him the boot with a small sum of money and a small house. And even though he made lots of cash in Turf War battles, he had only made enough to pay his bills and feed himself. He was just a poor, ordinary squid living an ordinary life in Inkopolis. However, one fateful day all of this changes when a new mission awaits Shaun. He will meet new friends as well as enemies, tackle the many tasks that lie ahead and stop a mysterious threat from possibly ending the world as we know it. A new story is about to unfold in Shaun's life, and you and I are going to be in the forefront of it all. Stay tuned for the next chapter of the next adventure for Agent 3!
