Hey there! I hope you liked the first chapter! This one is a little shorter, but I promise that they will get longer in the future :)
I´m just not used to write english fanfictions but it´s a super practice for me and I just can´t stop myself from writing this story because I´m so obsessed with this pairing right now *.*
So if you like this story or have any advice for me, let me know through a review :)
Anyway, here´s chapter 2!
Chapter 2 - Outburst
"News time!", Callie exclaimed.
"Again? But we have already announced the current battle arenas!", Marie said as she wouldn´t know what was going on.
"I know, I know! But our star Suzu Hoshino lost her very first battle!", the black-pink coloured Inklinggirl explained.
Marie looked shocked as she said: "What? Really? How could that happen?!"
Callie nodded: "As our video material shows, she was busy battling a certain Inklinboy the whole time!"
"So she got distracted by him and therefore didn´t pay attention on painting the turf?"
"Exactly!", Callie dramatically threw her hands above her head.
The silver-green coloured Squid Sister grinned: "Right now, we have both of them in our Studio!"
Callie went on: "Let´s welcome Suzu Hoshino and Shiro Masato!"
A fake applause could be heard. I rolled my eyes but still went on the stage, along with my former opponent.
"Suzu! Do you have any idea what was going on? I mean, any suggestions what happened down there?", Callie asked me immediately.
I shrugged: "I don´t know. Maybe it wasn´t my day. Anyway my team still did a great job. I guess our enemys are quite the impressive opponents. They definitely earn my respect."
"Wow. You are a good sport, aren´t you?", Marie commented.
The other Squid Sister turned to the blue coloured Inklingboy: "So Shiro, since I don´t recognize you at all, you must be really new to this business?"
"Not really. I just rarely go onto battles, that´s all.", he explained.
"Oh, interesting. But then you must be really good at battling! I mean, you did beat our star after all!"
He shrugged, scratching his head.
"May I ask how old you are?", Marie asked.
"15.", was his short response.
"I see. So do you have anything to say about the last battle, before we end it here?"
Again he shrugged: "I guess, good battle?"
He raised his hand in my direction, obviously wanting to shake my hand. As annoyed as I was, I still faked a smile at him and gently put my hand into his.
"Well played.", I cheered.
"Wow! These two are fair players, right there.", Marie commented, amazed by our mature behaviour.
Callie beamed, like she usually did: "So that´s all for now, folks! As always.."
"Stay freeeesh!", both of the Squid Sisters squealed.
And with that the cameras turned off and the show had found it´s end. I sighed in relief. Quickly I rushed off the stage to grab my things. I just wanted to get out of here and that as soon as possible!
Finally exiting the studio, I went to a vending machine and bought myself a cola. I leaned against a wall and with relish enjoyed the cold drink.
How the heck did I loose? This was just... Unbelievable! And absolutely not my fault!
"So she got distracted by him and therefore didn´t pay attention on painting the turf?", I imitated Marie. "My ass!", I scolded.
So what if I had chased down that idiot instead of coloring the ground? That´s what I always do! I mean, why do I have teammates at the first place, when they are too stupid to cooperate with me? They could have painted the turf as well!
"Bunch of idiots!", I said my thoughts out loud.
This was just not fair.. My perfect score.. Gone forever! Everyone will loose their respect for me. Maybe they will even make fun of me!
"Fuck!", I ranted again.
This was all his fault! If it wasn´t for him, I would have won again and everything would have been perfectly fine! But noo! Stupid Shiro Masato has to play the complete jerk and ruin my plan!
"I just rarely go onto battles, that´s all!", I screamed. "I just hope that you rarely go out of your house as well, so that I have to never see your ugly face again, jerk!"
"Pfff..", someone chuckled next to me.
In shock, I quickly turned around to see that very blue coloured Inkling, who I was ranting about just seconds ago.
I blushed. Damn! I thought I was alone here!
"W.. What´s so funny?", I asked politely
Who knows? Maybe he didn´t hear my monologue.
"Oh nothing. But I have to disappoint you. I do go out very often.", he chuckled.
Crap.
"How much did you hear?"
"Umm, let´s see.. I guess pretty much everything.", he shrugged.
"Aren´t you.. Offended?", I asked carefully.
"Huh? Why? Should I? I think your rage was pretty funny and cute.", Shiro blushed. "You should definitely consider to become an actor!", he added.
...Funny..?
...Cute?...
HE THOUGHT I WAS ACTING FUNNY AND CUTE?!
HE HAD JUST DESTROYED MY PERFECT LIFE AND NOW HE IS MAKING FUN OF ME?!
WHO CARE´S WHAT HE THINKS OF ME? IT´S TOO LATE ANYWAY!
SO..
FUCK IT!
"Just who do you think you are, hmm? You think you are better than me? Wrong! You just got lucky out there, that´s all. With more decent teammembers I would have totally crushed you! But no! I got paired up with those idiots! Are you happy that you caused my first loss? Fine. But it won´t change anything. I´m still the star of Inkopolis and nothing will change that, squid bag! Got that? Then get out of my way!", I yelled at him.
I reluctantly passed by him and didn´t look back even once. Guilt was rushing up my spine. Normally I wouldn´t have acted like that. But it just seemed like he wasn´t taking me seriously.
My anger.
My plans.
Like it was just a big joke for him! I just hoped that I would never see his face again.
