Chapter 9: Day 23: Octoling Uprising
Terry and Taylor are in their Agents 3 and 3.5 uniforms while on their mission. When they saw an Octoling with seaweed on it, Taylor said, "no way! Octolings are for eel?" "Yes, they're real! Seriously, why do people think they're not in existence? The Octolings with seaweed on their heads are super tough," said Agent 2. "Agents 3 and 3.5! Try to take the high ground," said Agent 1. "Aye aye, Agent 1! Come, Agent 3! Let's kick some Octolings," said Taylor. "You got it, Agent 3.5," said Terry.
While Taylor defeats an Octoling, he gets pushed into the wall and held on it by a black tentacle Octoling. "So, this is what an Octoling looks like up; close? Interesting yet scary and terrifying," said Taylor, sweating in fear. "Oh, you notice. You're super cute for an Inkling," said the Octoling. "Ok, I can attract Agent 2 and Octolings? That's just strange." "Maybe if you I don't kill you, we can have lobster bisque; together." "FYI, I'm allergic to shellfish and…. never! You try to splat my friend and me." Then the Octoling gets splatted by Terry. "Taylor, are you ok?! What happened," said Terry. "You saved me from an icky gross date with an Octoling. Let's get the Zapfish before any other Octoling that wants to flirt with me to date them." "Agree."
At the shack, Agents 1 and 2 and Terry; in her regular clothes are waiting for Taylor to finish changing. "Psst! Agent 3, Taylor is so adorable. I bet he looks cute without his shirt off," said Agent 2. "Yeah, you can say that," said Terry. "I'm curious, Terry. But are you a fan of the Squid Sisters," said Agent 1. "Yes, I am. And so is Taylor. My favorite Squid Sister is Callie." "Really. Who's Taylor's favorite?" "Marie." "Marie?! Oh, really. Why," said Agent 2, blushing. "He thinks she's so independent and chills." "Terry! I'm ready to go home," said Taylor, coming out of the shack with his regular clothes on. "Bye, Agents. I'm sure we'll find the Cap'n; soon," said Terry, leaving with Taylor.
"Good night, Agents 3 and 3.5," said Agent 1. "I'll see you in my dream, Agent 3.5. Meow and purr," said Agent 2. "Mari-… I mean Agent 2. We've gone over this. Taylor is in love with…." "Agent 3. But he likes Marie. I guess someone has a chance." "Don't be shellfish. Let Taylor decide… with his heart."
