Authors Note #5
First off, I wanted to say thank you to whomever has favorited my book! Second off, every chapter, the prologue and the character bio were supposed to have these lines underneath the AN and whenever there was a major time-jump, such as moving from one day to the next. My books will get more descriptive as time goes on, but right now, this is my first book and the fourth thing I've ever posted for others to actually read/judge, and I'll take constructive criticism just fine, but if you think hate comments are staying or gonna have an effect, ya got another thing coming. I'll probably (in the future at least) make the first ever Splatoon/Star Trek crossover, but it'll be after the rest of my books are out and after Life in Inkopolis has gone to Splatoon 2, possibly Splatoon 3. Thank you for even reading a new writers book (and soon to be books) and actually taking the time to make sure that said writer knows that you enjoyed the book so far. Now enough of my SHET, ONTO THE SECOND CHAPTER (Once again in SMG4's voice {Go sub to him he's hilarious})!

"My name is-" He started to say, but he was interrupted by this really rude jerk-wad.

"Nice girlfriend~ ya got there," he said with a smirk. But before either of them could say anything else I said, "First off, he's not my boyfriend, second off, would you not be a total douche bag jerk-wad asshole who seems to think that he can cut off whoever the hell he wants?"

"EXCUSE ME?!" the jackass said. "WHAT THE HELL DID YOU JUST SAY TO ME YOU FUCKING BITCH? I'LL RIP YOUR HEAD OFF IF YOU DON'T TAKE IT BACK!" This got the attention of everyone around us, including security.

"Well now you fucked up," I started to say, but what he did to me next was completely and utterly unbelievable, and I probably wouldn't have believed it if I wasn't the one he did it to.

He slapped and I mean slapped me very hard, so much so that I fell, my nose started bleeding, and there was a giant mark on the left side of my face.

When I got up and gave him the look I gave him, he turned white with complete fear. I lunged right at him, knocking him down to the ground and I started punching him as hard as I could. After about thirty seconds of this (the security guards saw what he did to her and let her have her moment of FUCKING HIM UP and then pulled her off of him so that the damage wasn't so severe, they should've done 15 seconds with how COMPLETELY AND UTTERLY FUCKED UP his face was; he fucking deserved it, he fucking slapped Laila in a manner that should never be done to a girl, nor a woman!)

"FUCK YOU, WHEN I'M DONE WITH YOU, YOU'RE GONNA WISH YOU WERE NEVER EVEN BORN!" I said out of complete hatred and anger. On a side note my tentacles are black, this means that I am in an extreme amount of anger, hatred, rage, and fury. He knows he fucked up the second he touched me, let alone bieng the sole reason I began bleeding and had a HUGE fucking mark on my face.

"I-I didn't mean t-to hi-hit you s-so hard." he said, only to be countered by me with

"YOU SHOULDN'T HAVE HIT ME AT ALL!" I screamed at him, yes screamed at him as my voice was starting to crack from how much shouting I was doing at this jackass; no not even a jackass anymore, the biggest bastard jackass jerk of the world (I don't know what is really worse than jackass, so if anyone wants to make a suggestion, I'd be willing to change that God awful description of the bully)

He flinched the second I started screaming at him.

"Ma'am, please calm down, you're making a disturbance and scaring the living shit out of everyone," said one of the security guys, "though one of us deserves it." He whispered that last bit under his breath, only me, the security guys and the bully asshole that hit me heard him.

"I'll calm down when I never have to see him again. I also want his turf war license revoked!" I said, my tentacles still black, but somewhat turning back to their normal green color.

"Hey, what's going on here?" said some random guy.

"Your teammate is having his turf war license revoked and will probably have to move away because of what he did to this girl here." said one of the security personnel, to this the guy facepalmed and said, "Jackson, what did ya do?"

The bully asshole, apparently called Jackson, said, "She got me pissed off and we may have started a fight with each other." to this I countered with, "He walked up to us and pretty much was a douche-bage from the very beginning, when I called him out on it he FUCKING SLAPPED ME!" Jackson flinched at the last three words.

"JACKSON, WHAT THE HELL!?" the guy said, obviously infuriated when he learned what Jackson had done. "WHY would you hit a girl, not only that, but you didn't do it in self defense, which makes it WORSE. Officer, I'll pay for his fines, but ONLY because I need him for my team."

"Why not just get a new teammate?" I asked.

"Because not many people are good with his choice of weaponry." He said.

"Oh, enlighten me, what is his weapon of choice?" I inquired in a sarcastical manner.

"Bold for a newbie, I'll give you that. And hi-" He was saying, but then Jackson cut him off.

"Don't tell her, we could use that to our adva-" Jack was saying to which I interrupted with.

"YOU have NO room to talk in this conversation, it's an A-B conversation, C your way out of it!" I said in a loud enough voice to make sure that I wasn't cut off by Mr. Jackass bully over here.

To what I said, Jack said, "Yes ma'am." and after that he shut up, for once, and me and his teammate could finally have an actually conversation without being rudely interrupted.

"I got the gist of what he was saying and I agree with him, we should keep it a secret, you never know when we may meet on the battlefield." He said.

"Oh yeah before I forget {which would be a first} everyone starts at level one, so even you were a quote un-quote 'newbie' once and second, who are you? I'd like to know your name so I know who to go to when Jack-ass starts something again." I said with a smirk at the Jack-ass part.

"*snickers* alright, that name was the funniest one I've heard for him, and the name's Kane, here's my number, call if he does start something." Kane said.

"Thanks. And I will!" I said.

About two minutes later:

"Wow Laila, already getting another guy's number." My roommate said with a giant smirk plastered on his face. By this time we were almost at out apartment and there was no one else around for him to embarrass me around.

"Would you rather not be able to call Kane and get Jack-ass in trouble for the shit he does, I doubt that was the last time we'll see him. Also, thanks for holding that until after we were alone. It would have been embarrassing for both of us, you because it would make you look like an immature idiot and me because people might start thinking me and Kane started dating the day I got here." I said, making sure to sound sincere on the thanks part.

"'Ey, I may be stupid sometimes, but not all the time." He said, still with that same smirk. "Besides, I'd rather not encur your wrath." He said under his breath.

"Y'know, I still don't know your name, you never got to tell me cause of Jack. And I only encur my wrath on those who actually deserve it, like Jack-ass!" I said in a matter of factly manner.

"Oh yeah, my name's Leonardo, but you could also call me Leo if you want. And I hope I never go into that category, I'd probably be ripped to shreds," Leo said.

"How about me and you make a team together? We'd eventually find others to join the tea-" I said, but was cut off again, this time by Leo.

"I'm in. I'll join your team and I'd join it any day, those two guys, Kane and Jack, they're the strongest rank B+s' and their team, the Nova Squids, are also the best in B+, so you standing up to and even kicking Jack's ass got you a lot of merit and reputation; so what's the team name gonna be?" Leo asked.

"Hmm ... I haven't really thought of it much, how about The Neon Squids?" I asked, genuinely hoping he liked the team name.

"That ... actually is a good team name. How long have you been thinking of that as a team name?" Leo asked.

"Not long actually, I was planning on passing the science exam," I told Leo, "I failed it by one point," I deadpanned.

"... wow ..., I-I'm sorry you failed it Laila, and by one freaking point, they should have just let you in. Are you sure you failed it, it is possible to change the scores (it is next to impossible, but it's still possible) and make someone who passed fail and vice-versa, one point seems a little sketchy." Leo said, and he made a damn good point.

"... How did I not see it sooner?" I deadpanned. "What you said, it makes so much more sense than me failing it, but who? ... damn it." I said.

"What? Do you know who changed it?" Leo asked me.

"Yep, that bitch, I can't believe she would do that, but then again, she always had it out for me." I said. "Beatrice. Beatrice Reef. God I hate her, and now she's taken the one opportunity that I had to have a successful career."

"Beatrice Reef? She was my sister's best friend until she moved away, you sure it was Beatrice Reef and not Beatrice Reed? Beatrice Reed was the bully." Leo said.

"I'm sure it was Beatrice Reef, and even if it wasn't her, there's nothing I can do now, there's no way I can prove to them that she forged the test scores." I told him.

"Hey, it's getting late, how about we eat dinner and get some sleep, we have a long day of turf warring to do." Leo said, and unfortunately, he was right.

"The only thing I hate more than her is turf war. Inkopolis Plaza is nothing more than boot camp, and the only reason I'll 'play' it is so that I can pay rent on time." I told him, showing my displeasure with the 'game'.

"I promise you'll have fun!" He told me, hoping that I actually would.

"We will see." I bluntly told him.

After we ate dinner we went to our own separate rooms and went to sleep, I just hope that tomorrow will be better and that Leo was right about me going to have fun.

Authors note #6
Thank you for reading this chapter, I hope it was good, though it had a lot of emphasis while the chapter was introducing the rival team and the common bully. Next time I have a challenge, please would you review and try to guess the answer.
Legend:
() means that it is my own personal input.
[] means that an action is or has been done.
{} means that Laila is thinking whatever is in between those ... parentheses ... things? not sure what they're called.
** means that an action is currently being done by the person in question (such as *chuckles*, that would mean that whoever was talking started chuckling, this would only be for in between quotes or in the middle of whatever that person was saying).
On a side note, this is the most that Laila has ever cursed before, she usually doesn't do it unless she is pretty mad.
Hopefully you've been reading my shet, and if you have, good on you, if you haven't, then you missed out on this legend *smirky face*
