Callie ran as fast as she could. It was just her luck that she didn't bring her roller, but rules are rules. No inking are allow to bring there weapons unless they are going to the turf wars. Callie was really going to check on Marie, when she notice Octarians head right for her. She had no idea how they got into they city, but there was no way she was working for them again. She ran and dodge their shots, only to end up in a dead end.
"Ah Squid!" She said and turn around.
However, the Octarians were in front of her and she was trap. Before the Octarians could fire, a green tornado appear in between them. Callie watch as the tornado turn into the Inkling that Off the Hoof cover this morning.
"Hello there. I was hoping you boys could do something for me." The Inkling said with a huge grin.
The Octarians look confuse before the Inkling hand them a rope.
"Could you pull on this please? It's a surprise." She said.
One of the Octarians did pull and giant bucket of green ink fell and splattered them.
"A lifetime supply of ink!" She said and laugh.
Callie was quite surprise. She had no idea where the giant bucket came from or how the Inkling got a lifetime supply of ink. She watch as the Inkling turn to face her and notice that it face was green.
"Hello, earth to you. Are you there?" The Inkling asked.
"What? Oh sorry. It just, you face." Callie said snapping out of her trace.
"What about my face?" The Inking asked upset.
"Well, I never seen an inkling with a green face before." Callie explain taking a step back.
"Oh so that it!", The Inkling said and smile, "Well don't you worry, I'm the only one with this kind of face."
The Inkling pull out a mirror and look in it before kissing it.
"Um, we got to stop the Octarians, before they splat all the Inklings." Callie said remembering about the others.
"No worry, I got them all to the Turf War Area and grab any splattered Inkling and place them there too. In fact, they were fighting them off the last time I seen them." THe Inkling said.
Callie sigh in relief. She wasn't sure how one Inkling got all the Inkling to the Turf War Area or grab the splattered Inklings, but was happy they were ok.
"Some of the Octolings here was also fighting them off the last I saw as well. I even found the two Inklings that hated them and gave them some more wedgies!" She added.
"Well, we need to find a to stop them from entering the city and stop Octavio before he tries something different." Callie said.
"Don't worry about that either. I cut off all routes to the city before I came looking for you. Once the attack is over, I'll uncover all the exits." The Inkling said.
"Thanks you, but who are you?" Callie asked.
"Really wish I knew. I been trying to think of a name for myself for sometime, but first..." The Inkling said then spin away from Callie, heading for Octo Valley.
Mask/Marie stop near Octavio base and smile.
"What? You thought I had go through some areas, fight off bosses and recuse some mini-zap fish? My show, my rules." She said towards the viewers.
Mask/Marie then slip in between the crack of the platform and came out flat on the other side.
"Talk about getting thin in a few seconds." She laugh and pop back to normal.
Mask/Marie waste no time to look for Octavio and teach him a lesson he won't forget.
Elsewhere...
Octavio watch as Jellyway came crashing through a window, through he had no idea why there was a window, and land at his tentacles.
"Jellyway?" He asked confuse.
She rub her head and notice she was back at the base.
"You mean tell me that inkling threw me all the way back to Octo Valley?!" She shouted highly upset.
"Jellyway!" Octavio shouted at her.
Jellyway turn and notice him standing there with a confused look on his face as he waited for an explanation.
"Sir, I'm afraid to report that the Green face Inkling is very real. It not only splat my team, but gave me something call a wedgie and threw me all the back here. I understand if you don't believe me." She answer.
Octavio didn't believe her, but he knew Jellyway would never lie about anything. They both notices some of the Octarians and Octolings "souls" were coming back faster then before.
"What? But we should have lessen the amount of Inklings!" Jellyway shouted in surprise.
"But I brought them back!" They heard behind them.
They turn and saw Mask/Marie standing there in a superhero costume. Jellyway rise her weapon, but Mask/Marie pull out her Splatterscope and fire before Jellyway could. Jellyway was knock way and Mask/Marie zoom up to Octavio back in her normal clothes.
"Now for you." She said with her eyes turning red.
Octavio try to grab her, but Mask/Marie zoom around and shouted, "WEDGIE!" and pull his underwear over his head. She laugh as Octavio try to remove the underwear that appear out of nowhere. Mask/Marie zoom out of the room and close the door. She also waste no time in grabbing items to block the door.
"There, that should hold him for a while." She smile and turn around.
Only find a huge army of Octarians and Octolings stand there with their weapons aim at her. Mask/Marie was so surprise that ink image of her head appear and her eyes pop out when she scream, then she smirk.
"Okay guys. Let's dance!" She said and snap her fingers.
Hey, hey
You, you
I don't like your girlfriend
No way, no way
I think you need a new one
Hey, hey
You, you
I could be your girlfriend
Hey, hey
You, you
I know that you like me
No way, no way
No, it's not a secret
Hey, hey
You, you

As she sing, her clothes change into rockstar look and her tentacles went from green to black and give more of a wild look.
I can see the way, I see the way you look at me
And even when you look away I know you think of me
I know you talk about me all the time again and again (again, again, again)
So, come over here, tell me what I want to hear
Better yet make your girlfriend disappear
I don't want to hear you say her name ever again (and again, and again, and again)
Some of the Octolings jump down and started to dance with Mask/Marie. The rest just look and some even started to bob their heads to the music. Only the Octarians was lost on what to do.
She's like so whatever
You could do so much better
I think we should get together now
And that's what everyone's talking about!
Then, as if some force pull them, all the Octolings started to sing along with Mask/Marie.
Hey! Hey! You! You!
I don't like your girlfriend!
No way! No way!
I think you need a new one
Hey! Hey! You! You!
I could be your girlfriend
Hey! Hey! You! You!
I know that you like me
No way! No way!
You know it's not a secret
Hey! Hey! You! You!
I want to be your girlfriend
Some Octolings grab the Octarians and started to dance with them. Octavio and Jellyway was able to find away around the blockade and saw the Octo army dancing. That brought the music battle Octavio had with the Squid Sisters and notice the Inkling looks. Jellyway couldn't believe what she was seeing, the Octo Army had change into a Dance Army.
In a second you'll be wrapped around my finger
'Cause I can, 'cause I can do it better
There's no other
So, when's it gonna sink in?
She's so stupid
What the hell were you thinking?!
Mask/Maire started to clap with the Octo Army following her.
In a second you'll be wrapped around my finger
'Cause I can, 'cause I can do it better
There's no other
So, when's it gonna sink in?
She's so stupid
What the hell were you thinking?!
Soon the army started dancing again and singing on their own.
Hey! Hey! You! You!

Hey! Hey! You! You!
I could be your girlfriend

What they didn't notices is that Mask/Marie had slip through them and change back to her normal clothes.
Hey! Hey! You! You!
I don't like your girlfriend!
No way! No way!
I think you need a new one
Hey! Hey! You! You!

No way! No way!
Hey! Hey! You! You!

Hey! Hey! You! You!

No way! No way!
Mask/Marie smile and pointed back at army still dancing and signing.
"I wouldn't be their girlfriend." She laugh.
She waste no time and headed for the exit, but stop as if something came to mind.
"Ladies and Gentlemen, today will be the day that you almost caught, the Green Inkling!" She said and then left the same way she came in.
Morning has rise once more and Marie was fast asleep in her bed when her door was kick open. She jump from the noise and found herself tackle by none other then Callie.
"Callie?" Marie asked confused.
"Oh Marie you're ok!" Callie said still hugging her and it appears she was crying.
"Of course, but why are you crying?" Marie said then asked.
"Marie, did you sleep through the attack last night?" Callie asked confuse.
That when she remember everything, the attack, putting the mask on, heading for Octavio Base, giving him a wedgie and doing a song number she got outta nowhere and coming back here.
"I was attack night and had to fight off some of the Octarians and Octolings. But they very close to splat me and I must have past out and got to bed somehow." Marie said instead.
"WHAT!?", Callie shouted, "They almost splat you?!"
"Callie, I'm fine. I'm still here aren't I?" Marie asked with a smile.
"Yeah, oh! And you won't believe this! I met the new Inkling last night. She somehow got a giant bucket with a lifetime supply of ink and make the Octarians dump it on themselves.
Marie remember that. She wasn't sure how she pull it off, but she couldn't help but to laugh at her own prank. Callie laugh with her then notices the mask on Marie's dresser.
"Hey, Marie. Where did you get this mask?" Callie said reaching for it.
Marie grab it first and hid it behind her.
"Mask? What mask?" She said smiling.
"The one you just hid behind your back." Callie said with rase eyebrow.
"Oh that mask. It was a gift from Mom and Dad. They found it and thought I should have it. I just never shown you it because it was nothing special." Marie said.
"Okay?" Callie said confused.
"Well, let's have breakfast." Callie smile forgetting all about the mask.
After she skip outta Marie's room, Marie sigh in relief and open her closet and place he on the high self. She could feel the mask power calling out to her.
"Sorry, but I don't think you can work in the daytime." She spoke to it and felt the power fade a bit.
Marie shut the closet door and walk down stairs to join Callie for breakfast.
Well how was that? Mask/Marie finally has a name, because I want to give her one and the whole scene was base of the scene form Mario and Luigi:The Mask. It took me a while to figure what song I wanted to and end up going with Avril Lavigne Girlfriend song. I thought it might fit Marie mask persona more. Callie had discover about the mask but doesn't know what it can do. Next chapter, I'm going to have someone discover Marie wear the mask at night and it would be Callie. Feel free to guess if you wish.
