Our story takes place in the distant future. It has been twenty years since the Zapfish was stolen and recovered by agents 1, 2, Orange and Blue. Though the operation was to be kept quiet, Agents Orange and Blue soon became renowned in the world of Turf War. They may have been enemies on the battlefield, but the duo became just as famous a pair as the squid sisters as years passed. But, our story is not about those two…
No, our story takes place far from Inkopolis, in a land shunned by the bustle of the inklings of the zones. Deep in Octo Valley, Octet, Octavio's daughter was planning her own attack on Inkopolis. With the agents long past their octarian hunting days, Octet found it the perfect time to strike with her legion of elite octolings. From Alpha to Omega, the legion of twenty-four octoling set out to Zapfish storage to steal the Zapfish.
Agent 8-Kappa, who was assigned to the mission, stood guard over the area. It was her job to make sure that no inklings saw the octarians infiltrating Zapfish Storage. She stood guards, eyes sharp through her goggles, looking for movement.
"Heya!"
"Wh-! Hey! Who do you think you are?!" Kappa exclaimed at the sudden voice. There was a young inkling wearing a funny set of headphones standing beside her. He had wide, expectant eyes and a large grin. He looked like an overgrown four year old "Intros already, okay! I'm Zap! Zap the Inkling!" trumpeted the inkling. His voice was moderate, and a little scratchy, kind of like a higher-pitched teenage boy with some throat issues. "I used to be called something else, but my name was so stupid I changed it. I don't really remember what it was anymore, anyway!" Zap cheered.
This kid was getting annoying.
"Look, uh, Zap… I don't have time to talk right now, so why don't you go play over there with your inking gun or something…." Kappa groaned. "Okay, first, It's a limited edition, high tech Krak-on Splatroller," Huffed Zap, annoyed at Kappa's remark. Guess she struck a nerve. "Second, I can't just go play with it, because I still have to pass the 'Turf War Entrance Programme'," Zap continued. "And third, you have to introduce yourself, too. Because it's polite."
Who did this little inkling think he was?! Causing a ruckus and demanding things of an elite octoling agent! Does this kid even know what an octoling is?!
"I'll leave you alone after you introduce yourself. And, I say those goggles would look a lot more fresh if you wore them on your head instead of your face, plus your teticles would make a good ponytail," Zap said, continuing to run his mouth. "Alright, alright. My name is Agent 8-Kappa," Kappa introduced.
And the rest was history as Zap left, leaving Kappa curious. She found herself putting her goggles on her forehead and tying her tentacles into a ponytail that night. The plunder had been a success, but there was just something bugging Kappa that night.
She decided to go find Zap again in the morning, in private, of course.
