( author's note )

( So... This chapter has some heavy topics? And I edited this heavily from it's original version? Anyway, between all my friends that have read this, they've all nicknamed this particular part "note 7". I call it that because the part of the story that is... Depressing, is in the seventh note on my notepad, which is where I write this garbage. So enjoy, or don't. See you tomorrow. )

-chapterstart-

Anthony wakes up.

"Wow, I actually woke up without someone waking me up!"

He gets off his bed, and walk to the kitchen, where Sarah is eating some cereal.

"Thanks for not waking me up today."

"It's the least I could do for your hospitality."

Anthony smiles and sits down, grabbing the cereal box.

"I'm still allowed to come over, right?"

"Oh, of course! As long as you aren't too busy having sex with fizz."

She blushes, and puts her head down.

Anthony receives a text.

"I'm almost done moving my stuff in, after I'm done unpacking I'll be there for Sarah."

Anthony reads the text outload.

Sarah perks up.

"How long until he gets here? Hopefully soon..."

She crosses her legs.

Anthony turns around and looks at his clock.

"10:46? Damn, that's some restraint!"

Sarah lets out involuntary moans.

Anthony leans back.

"You should really just let it out, he's not gonna want to fuck you immediately."

As soon as she hears this, she stuffs her hand down her armor.

"Mmmm..."

Anthony continues to eat his cereal.

"Ah~AH~!"

She bites her lip and grabs the table.

Anthony gets up to put his bowl in the sink.

"MMMMAH~!"

She takes her hand out of her armor, and starts sucking on it.

Anthony walks back to the table.

"Better?"

Sarah keeps panting.

"Yeah..."

-segmentline-

Fizz wakes up and rolls off his bed.

"Alright, time to move this stuff."

He starts loading boxes onto a wheelbarrow, which he has for some reason, and starts taking apart his bed.

He loads everything onto the the wheel barrow, and moves it out the door.

"Keep my apartment empty please, I'm coming back in a month."

The manager nods as fizz passes him.

He pushes it down the street, and enters the building.

The secretary looks at fizz, and throws him a key.

"Key to your room. Don't lose it."

Fizz nods and enters the elevator.

It goes up, and he steps out to see the squid sisters waiting there.

"Hey fizz! Want some help?"

"That'd be great, thanks."

Marie takes the wheelbarrow, and Callie opens the door.

Fizz pulls out his phone and sends Anthony a text.

"Where do you want all this stuff?"

Fizz starts directing them around, while setting up his bed.

"I think that's everything!"

Marie walks into the room.

"Well, Callie says it's everything. Have a nice stay here!"

They leave, and fizz finishes setting up his bed.

"There. Now to go pick up Sarah."

He picks up his keys, and walks out the door.

-segmentline-

Karl sits down with his breakfast.

"Let's see what's on..."

He flips through the channels, before groaning, and setting the remote down.

"Figures. And my date isn't until 2:00..."

He decides to tidy up his place.

"This is gonna take a while..."

He takes out a towel and some cleaning fluid and gets to work.

-segmentline-

A man steps out of a train. A women follows close behind.

"That bastard can't hide forever. We will find him if it takes all week."

The women laughs.

"I already got his apartment number today, let's fucking drag him out of there."

The man smiles.

"Well, 'fizz', you won't spend another day in this city!"

They laugh.

-segmentline-

Anthony hears a knock on the door.

"Come in!"

Fizz walks in and closes the door.

He is immediately tackled by Sarah.

"AUGH!"

Sarah smothers him with kisses, refusing to let him get up.

"Calm down! I'm just here to pick you up! Do you have your things?"

She gets up off of fizz, and shows him the remaining three pills.

"This is all I have left. How I'm gonna get more, I have no idea."

"We sell pregnancy pills here too ya know."

She shakes her head.

"These are different. These are made for octoling anatomy."

Fizz sighs.

"That's gonna cause problems..."

She groans, and waves goodbye to Anthony.

They leave.

"Put the hood on."

Sarah gasps and flings it on as quick as possible.

"Alright, its not far from here."

He leads her down a road, and the turns.

"There it is. Flounder heights."

She stares in awe at the luxury high rise apartments.

"We have this place for a month, right?"

Fizz nods.

"Hell yeah..."

They get to the apartment, and fizz opens the door.

Sarah goes inside, and begins going through every room.

"Why's this room empty?"

Fizz closes the door and walks down the hall.

"That's the office space. I still have no clue what to do with it."

Sarah shrugs.

"No idea. I'm sure we'll figure out something."

Fizz walks down the hall, and into the bedroom.

"Hey, fizz."

Fizz turns around, and sees Sarah gulp down one of the pregnancy pills.

"Let's fuck."

Fizz does nothing for a moment, before taking his pants and underwear off, and sitting on the bed.

Sarah rushes over and takes the entire length in her mouth immediately.

He takes a sharp breath at the sudden rush of pleasure.

She sucks as fast as she can, using her tounge to lick the tip as she moves.

"Slow...down..."

She speeds up.

"No-Ah..."

He cums moments after the speed up.

Sarah stands up, and swallows it all.

She gets up on the bed, and raises her ass.

"Come and get it~"

Fizz gets on his knees and enters her.

She moans, and begins rubbing her breasts.

He begins moving in and out slowly, earning long, drawn out moans from Sarah.

"Faster~ fuck me faster~"

He speeds up, earning more moans from Sarah.

"So good~ gonna cum~"

She tenses up, and fizz feels her orgasm coating his dick, and dripping onto the bed.

Fizz speeds up again.

"MMMAAAH~!"

She cums again, her fluids running down her legs, and dripping onto the bed some more.

Fizz starts pounding her as hard as possible, causing her to scream as she cums for a third time.

"Buwahh~"

Fizz cums a minute later, stopping for a moment before pulling out.

"No... You can't be done..."

He moves himself down slightly, and flips Sarah over before entering her ass.

"AAAAMHMHMM~"

He picks up the pace quicker this time, with Sarah's moans getting progressively louder.

"I'm gonna pass out from cumming so much~"

She cums. It adds to the sizable puddle on the bed.

Fizz continues for over 10 minutes, and two more orgasms from Sarah, before cumming.

He pulls out halfway through, and covers part of Sarah's face and chest with dark blue semen.

"Ah...Oooooh..."

Sarah passes out, with cum starting to leak out both of her holes.

Fizz gets off the bed, stumbles for a second, and pulls his clothes back up.

"I'm gonna give Zoey a call... Maybe she can find more of those pills..."

He looks back at Sarah, who's laying down with her mouth hanging open, and cum everywhere.

"I'm taking a picture of this."

He pulls out his phone, and snaps a photo.

He then leaves the room, and dials a number.

"Hey, Zoey? I have a favor to ask..."

-segmentline-

Zoey puts the phone down.

She sits down on her couch.

"He would be fucking an octoling, the sworn enemy of the inklings..."

She sighs.

" I don't want some weird octinkling hybird though."

She looks out the window.

"I can get a ton of those pills from the shops. I just have to disguise myself."

She opens her closet, and takes out an octoling wig.

"Back into the Frey I suppose..."

She walks out the door, and slides down a nearby hill.

"Here we go."

She lands in a street. It's empty, but a store nearby catches her attention.

"There..."

She walks into the store.

"Well, what's a fine lady like you doing here by herself?"

She glances at the counter, and sees a man leaning over it.

"I'm getting some pregnancy pills. Do you know where they are?"

The man smiles.

"Planning a romp, eh? Alright. How many you need?"

"Give me enough for a month. I don't want be in here every other day for these things."

The man shrugs.

"Suit yourself, you'll be missing out on my charming nature."

She smiles. She never had seen octoling males before, the army was exclusively female. But this guy was cool.

He pours a ton of pills into a bag, and pushes it torwards Zoey.

"See you next month, miss...?"

She grabs the bag and sets down some credits.

"Zoey."

The man smiles.

"Well, don't be late, don't want to disappoint your man."

She giggles.

"Mhmm. I'll see you next month as well..."

"John."

She turns around and waves.

"Bye John."

"Bye, Zoey."

She leaves the store.

"That was nice..."

She smiles.

"Maybe I should buy more stuff from there..."

-segmentline-

Fizz walks into the small cabin.

"I've got your pills. Enough for a month."

Fizz hugs Zoey.

"You have no idea how thankful I am for this."

Zoey shrugs.

"It wasn't that hard. Now go use these, so I didn't waste my time."

Fizz takes the bag, and waves goodbye.

-segmentline-

Karl opens the door for Callie.

"Ready to go?"

Karl nods, and steps outside.

"Karl."

He looks to his left, and his father and Marie are standing there.

"I've heard you've started dating Callie."

Karl nods.

His father smiles.

"Heh. Nice job snagging this one! Didn't think you had it in you!"

"Dad..."

He walks up to Karl.

"Here, take these."

He drops some pills into his hand.

"Condoms are overrated. These are far better."

Karl stares at the pills in disbelief.

Callie giggles next to him.

"Maybe we'll end up using these soon~"

Karl blushes.

"Uh... Thanks?"

His father pats his head.

"Take good care of her son."

Karl nods.

He stands up, and follows Marie out.

Karl stares down at the pills again.

Callie kisses him on the cheek and grabs the pills.

"These are for me. Now let's get to that movie."

Karl stammers some nonsense before following Callie out.

-segmentline-

Arron walks into Anthony's apartment.

"Hey Arron!'

"Hey."

Anthony immediately swings around and frowns.

"Is everything ok?"

Arron sits down on the couch.

"I'm just worried about my parents finding out about us..."

Anthony sighs, and sits down next to Arron.

"Arron. Look at me."

Arron pulls his head up and looks at Anthony.

"Arron. Nothing will ever stop us from seeing each other. If your parents find out, we will move away to where they won't find us. I'm not going to lose you Arron."

He pauses for a second and takes a deep breath.

"I love you."

Arron opens his mouth in suprise.

"I-I..."

He looks Anthony in the eyes.

"I love you too."

Anthony smiles.

They kiss passionately, not breaking apart after only a minute like they usually do.

The outside world becomes nothing to them. They only care about each other,

and any thing that could interrupt them, they phase out.

"WHAT ARE YOU DOING?!"

That might snap them out of it.

Arron brings his head back.

His eyes widen.

"Dad...?"

His father runs over and slaps Anthony.

"WHAT GIVES YOU THE RIGHT TO MESS AROUND WITH MY SON?!"

He turns to Arron.

"And YOU. I will not have you being with a man! Much less this...this...LOWLIFE!"

Arron feels something snap. Everything he has done with Anthony comes flooding back.

"He. Is not. A LOWLIFE!"

His father backs up in suprise.

"He is kind, and passionate, And he never let's his friends down!"

Anthony smiles weakly while holding his cheek where he was slapped.

His father glares at Arron.

"You don't know what you want, you're just confused! Let's get you back home-"

Arron pushes his dad back.

"NO! YOU'RE THE ONE WHO IS GONNA LEAVE! I CAN'T LOSE HIM... I can't..."

He starts crying.

He takes a deep breath.

"I love him..."

His father grabs his arm.

"No you don't. Now let's go."

He begins to drag Arron torwards the door.

"NO! ANTHONY, PLEASE!"

He reaches out desperately. He gets dragged out the door.

Anthony stares at his empty living room. His lonely. Empty. Living room.

"No..."

He tears up.

"He does love me... And I love him..."

He begins crying freely.

"I lost him..."

-segmentline-

Fizz arrives back at his apartment.

"Sarah? I'm ba-"

He stops.

"Something's wrong."

He grabs his chest.

"Something big just happened. I..."

He sighs.

"Something REALLY bad just happened."

He feels himself tear up.

"This can't be good. Anthony... Yeah. Him. What happened to him...?"

He wipes some of the tears away and takes a deep breath.

Sarah wanders into the room.

"Fizz...?"

She sees him holding his chest, crying.

"FIZZ!"

She grabs him, and brings him to the couch.

"What's happening?"

"I'm not sure. But it has something to do with Anthony."

She looks confused.

"Don't question it, alright? It just... Feels like something's off."

Sarah hugs fizz.

"I'll help you. Come on, to the bed."

She helps him up, and leads him to the bed, setting him down gently.

"Thanks..."

Sarah lays down next to him.

"How do you know it has to do with Anthony?"

Fizz shrugs.

"Intuition? I have no idea. I just have this... Feeling."

Sarah moves fizz over so he's looking at her.

"We have to figure this out. Should we head over there?"

"Definitely. This could be extremely important. Something terrible might've happened."

Sarah starts to get up, but fizz brings her in for a kiss.

"Thanks Sarah. I needed the help."

She smiles.

"Anything for you. Now let's go."

She runs out of the bedroom.

Fizz gets up, takes the bag out of his pocket, and sets it on the nightstand before following Sarah.

-segmentline-

Karl exits the theater, holding hands with Callie.

He hears his phone buzz, and he takes it out of his pocket.

"Something's wrong."

Callie looks at him in confusion.

"What?"

Karl shows her the text fizz just sent.

Callie frowns.

"What do you think he means by 'could be a huge problem'?"

Karl scratches his head and shrugs.

"I don't know. But this is probably important, c'mon."

They start running.

-segmentline-

Anthony looks out his window. he stares out into the rainy plaza.

He rubs his eyes.

He steps forward. His window being open is causing a mess on the floor.

"This is for the best. It's not worth it If I can't be with him."

He takes another step forward.

He looks down at the street. Most inklings hate rain. He sees many inklings scrambling to get to shelter.

"He can live on without me. He'll find someone new."

He takes one more step forward.

He's on the edge of the windowsill now. The front of his feet hanging over the edge.

"This will all be perfectly fine soon..."

A crash and the sound of his door flying open stops his next move.

Fizz stumbles in, hits himself on a wall near the door, and falls face first down onto the carpet.

Just outside of where the rain begins.

"ANTHONY!"

Anthony doesn't turn around.

"You can't do this. He's waiting for you! We will help you get him back!"

Fizz groans and grabs his nose.

Anthony glances back.

"You don't know how this feels. The only thing I loved. Ripped and dragged away from me."

"Maybe I can never feel that, but I can feel what you've done for me."

Sarah walks into the room. She stands next to fizz.

"You took me in when I was hurt. You conforted me when I was sad. You... Didn't judge anything about me."

She bends down to help fizz, and looks torward Anthony again.

"Don't. We can get him back."

He looks back this time.

"I followed his lead. The choice to take you in wasn't mine."

"Do you honestly believe that? I think you should give yourself more credit!"

Karl walks in.

He gets on his knees on the other side of fizz.

"You've been a hell of a friend to me dude. I can't imagine what it would be like without you here."

He stands up again, reaching his hand out to Anthony.

"Let's try and keep it that way, yeah?"

Anthony is shaking.

"Why should I bother. He was all I had. All I wanted. ...all I needed."

"Then fight for him. Feeling sorry for yourself isn't helping anyone."

Callie enters.

"I refuse to let you throw everything away over something that can be fixed."

She crosses her arms.

"We will get him back. No matter what it takes."

Anthony turns around.

"You... I..."

He looks at each of them, and they each say something to him.

"Let's get him back."

"No matter what it takes."

"We won't let him go."

"Are you with us?"

He turns back around.

Everyone in the room doesn't move.

For a few agonizing seconds, no one moves.

Anthony shuts the window.

"I won't give up on him. Not now. Not ever."

Everyone runs to him and grabs him in a group hug.

They shout encouragement and support from every side.

Anthony starts crying again.

"For you, Arron."

He smiles.

-segmentline-

Zoey slides down the hill again.

"I should really find a better way down here... And a faster way up."

She looks around, no one on the streets again. Weird. She walks torwards the store.

"Well, well, well! Came back so soon?"

Zoey smiles and walks up to the counter.

"I wanted some food. I think your charming nature is getting to me."

John laughs.

"Don't buy any food here, it's ridiculously overpriced. There's a grocery store down the street."

Zoey crosses her arms.

"What?"

Zoey rolls her eyes.

"Aren't you gonna escort me?"

John smirks, and steps out from behind the counter.

"If you insist, but it's just down the street."

Zoey grabs his hand and looks at him.

"Maybe we could make that walk last a little longer?"

John looks at her in suprise, before thinking for a second.

"Yeah... I think we could take the scenic route."

Zoey giggles and pulls him out the door.

-segmentline-

Arron pounds on the door.

"LET ME OUT OF THIS CLOSET! LET ME GO BACK! PLEASE!"

"You're staying in there until we can arrange a marriage for you. We obviously can't trust you to make the right choice, so we'll do it for you."

Arron gasps and falls backwards.

"What...? No...".

He looks around the small closet for anything that might get him out.

The only things in there are a a couple of cans and an old newspaper.

"Why do they have a newspaper in here?"

He picks up the newspaper and blows the dust off of it.

" Gay marriage legalized throughout inkopolis? It's dated almost 30 years ago..."

He sets the newspaper back down.

"Why would they keep that?"

He sees another news paper behind one of the cans.

He grabs in and swipes the dust off of it.

"Action against legal gay marriage gaining steam? Family refusing to accept court decision?!"

Arron throws the newspaper against the wall.

"Why do they hate this so much? Why can't they just let people be happy..."

He looks down at the floor.

"Why couldn't they just let me be happy..."

-segmentline-

A small group of 5, including an undisguised octoling, runs through the streets of inkopolis.

"HIS HOUSE IS JUST OVER HERE! COME ON!"

They sprint up the stairs, and fizz smashes the door open.

Anthony pushes past everyone and looks around.

Callie sighs.

"He's not here guys. They must have moved him."

Anthony puts his head down and trudges over to the couch.

Karl pulls out his phone.

"2:00. He must have been taken to his parents house."

Anthony quietly sobs on the couch.

Fizz taps his foot for a moment.

"Does anyone know where that is? he's never told us-"

He's cut off as a loud clang fills the room and he falls to the ground, unconscious.

Sarah grows wide eyed and runs for him, but is stopped by a shout.

"Don't move. We don't have to knock you out if you don't Move."

Sarah stops, but never takes her focus off of fizz.

"We are taking this stubborn piece of shit back home tomorrow."

Anthony looks up. He grows angry.

Karl gulps nervously.

"And...where's that...?"

The man walks in and smiles.

"To our house! Far, FAR away from here!"

"...you said you wouldn't hurt him..."

Everyone turns their attention to the doorway, which has a green tentacled inkling standing there.

"I did what I had to Rece. Now go away."

The man picks up half of fizz's body.

"Well, say goodbye, cause you ain't ever seeing this bitch again!"

He then drags him out the door.

Karl twitches.

He slams his hand into the wall, again, and again.

Sarah drops to the floor and cries.

"Why...? Who could be so cruel...?"

Karl stops punching the wall and looks at Sarah.

"HIS FUCKIN PARENTS! THEY ABANDONED HIM, AND NOW THEY'RE TAKING EVERYTHING HE'S WORKED FOR AWAY!"

He starts punching the wall again.

"I could report this on the news... But Two kidnappings usually stirs up public unrest."

Everyone looks at Callie.

"Do it."

Callie turns torwards Anthony, who slowly gets off the couch.

"I'm not letting anyone else lose the person they love today."

Sarah smiles weakly, and wipes some of her tears away.

Karl calms down a bit.

"I'll get my dad to approve it. This is far more important than any other garbage he's reporting on."

Callie sighs.

"At least someone here has good parents..."

"Parent. My mom died years ago."

Callie frowns.

"Sorry."

Karl shrugs.

"More important matters at the moment. Let's get to that news studio."

They all walk out the door, but then a voice behind them makes them stop.

"Can I help you guys...?"

They turn around, and the green tentacle guy is standing there, his eyes hidden by the tentacles.

Karl walks torwards him, which causes him to move back slightly.

"You wanna help Rece? Good. You can be our witness."

Rece smiles and begins walking with the group.

"So where are we going...?"

"The news studio. We are gonna get them to report this."

Rece nods and shrinks back into his tentacles.

Anthony growls.

"No giving up. He never gave up... I won't either."

Everyone speaks a confirmation, including rece.

"Let's get our friends back."
