Now that the history lesson is over lets get to the story shall we? This story takes place a few months after the Octarians and the Inklings started to live together peacefully. This story involved a certain little inkling name Hunter Williston. He is a male inkling with Dark Blue tendrels that end in Cyan tips with a few black spots. Hunter didn't play Turf war that much. He liked to Tinker with stuff from the old war instead. He even got a deal through the weapon shop to repair a few weapons on the side as a job. He enjoyed helping others keeping there gear in tip top shape.
Hunter's Grandfather was one of the soldiers that wore the Inkling helmet back during the Great Turf War. He had recently passed away, and all his possessions were being divided between his 3 children. Hunter's Father got a few things, and the helmet was one of them. Knowing his son would loves to tinker around with old stuff. He give it to Hunter as something to remember his grandfather by. Hunter accepts the helmet and tries it on. Once the helmet was on he tries turning it on, but nothing happens. He takes off the helmet and starts to take it apart. He finds a lot of damaged parts. He leans back int he chair and sighs. "Its going to take a bit to get this working again." he tries to think of a way to repair the mask. Then it hit him. The Octarians had a combat mask of there own. maybe it has a few parts that he could use.
He gets up, grabs his gear, and heads outside. His mother stopping him at the door to give him a kiss before letting him leave. "Have a fun time son" Hunter smiles, and waves back to his mother as he runs into town. Just as he gets into town the jumbo-tron had the squid sisters on it, but it was just them giving there "Stay Fresh" closing line. He didn't care much about missing the news. As he didn't play Turf War enough to care. He arrives at Sheldon's Weapon shop, and heads inside. Once inside Sheldon waves at him "Good to see you Hunter. i need a few weapons repaired i will pay double if you can get them fixed quickly." Hunter nods. "how about instead of paying me this time you help me get something. An Octarian Combat Mask" Sheldon looks at hunter confused. "Ok..guess this is one of your side projects?" Hunter nods. "Ok then well get the weapons fixed and i will look into it" Hunter smiles. "Thank you" he quickly heads into the back and begins working.
Hunter heads into the back and sees about four weapons needing fixing. There was a roller that had broke the handle off. There was a Splattershot JR and its tank that was leaking. There was also 2 Splat Chargers. one with a broken tank the other with a bent barrel. "it still amazes me how people can be so rough with there gear" He gets to work fixing each gun before testing them in the back. one he was finished he hands them to Sheldon. "Thanks for doing this so quickly...i managed to get one of those masks. Go see Annie and Moe they have one for ya" Hunter nods and quickly heads out. Just as he leaves the store some Pro-Inkling gang members were beating up some Octarians. They were laughing as beating them up. Suddenly two agents showed up. Agents 1 and 2 land behind two of them before subduing them. Hunter being unable to go through the crowd just watched as this unfolds. As he was watches the fight he could feel something strange inside of him as he watched Agent 2 fight. once the police showed up the other gang members dispersed.
Agent 1, and 2 help the police arrest the criminals. Then helps the Octarians who were the victims. Hunter spots his father and runs over to him. "Hey Dad. if you need an eye witness i did see what happened." His dad smiled and nodded. "you tell the Agents what happened i need to head back down to the station and book these guys." Hunter nods. "I will" Hunter's father smiles and rubs Hunter's head. "I raised you well" He goes back to the squad car and heads back to the station. Agents 1 overheard the conversation and let Agent 2 finish up. "so what was it you saw?" Hunter turns to the Agent. "well as i just leaving Sheldon's store i notice a couple of Inklings standing over some Octarians when i got closer i notices they were members of the Pro-Inkling gang by there jacket. The way they were beating them up and laughing...do people really act like that?" Agent 1 sighs. "Sadly yes...thank you for the information we need to get going." Agent 1 motion to Agent 2 and they headed off in a hurry. Hunter waves bye then goes to Annie and Moe's store.
Upon entering Annie sees Hunter and quickly runs into the back to grab the item. She quickly returns with it. "Here you go i hope you like it." "You must be blind to be getting an item like that!" Annie sighs. "Quite Moe!" Hunter nods. "Thank you Annie." he waves bye, and heads home. on his way home he begins to think about what he felt back there. What was that strong emotion, and why was it towards Agent 2. As he pondered this he didn't realize how close he was to home and bumps into the door. "Ow" His mother opens the door, and chuckles. "guess you had a busy day...your father just called me, and told me about it. I'm so proud of you" Hunter smiles, and rubs the back of his head a bit embarrassed. "I'm going to head up to my room to see if i cant salvage a few parts from this mask. to try and repair Grandpa's mask." his mother nods. "have fun" He nods and heads upstairs to his room. Once there he sits down at this desk and begins tinkering.
It took him all of the remaining day, and a bit into the night to finish repairing the mask. With the battery dead he had to leave the mask to charge overnight. In the morning he wakes up, and puts on the mask. one he turned it on a visual display pops up of everything around him, and he got a sudden urge to play Turf War. he grabs his Splatterscope, and heads out the door. he makes it to town square just in time for the jumbo-tron to turn on. the Squid Sisters Callie, and Marie appear and give today's announcements. They just go on about the maps available, but also mention a special event going on today. a raffle of sorts to meet the Squid sisters. all you had to do was participate in a game today and you were eligible to meet them. Sure enough this got everyone talking. Hunter not wanting to waste time runs on into the game room. To await for him to be placed in a game.
