Moira stayed quiet as she messed with her phone and waited for her sister in Octo Canyon. How long did a visit to Beaker's Depot take? She put her phone away and took hold of her Gold Dynamo Roller to inspect it for the 20th time while waiting. No damage to the handle, no fraying to the sponge, no cracks to the ink tank, just like it was 19 checks ago… How long did a visit to Beaker's Depot take again? She was about to pick up her phone again but heard Callie say something along the lines of 'there he is.' She looked up and saw Octavious with his Jet Squelcher resting on his shoulder.

"Hi, Octavious!" Callie greeted before asking in a sing-song voice, "So, how was the trip~?"

Octavious made a tch sound and started heading to the snowglobe DJ Octavio was trapped in before Moira called for him. As he made his way to her, he could see that she had her stuff gathered for a day of Turf Warring.

"Where's Fushia?" Moira asked him.

"She's coming."

"You were supposed to stay with her."

"What do I look like? A babysitter?"

"Octavious!"

Octavious scoffed, "Relax, will you? I told you she's coming."

Moira sighed, "Well, while we're waiting for her, do you want to join us for a day in Inkopolis?"

Octavious' expression turned to one of disgust. "You're actually going up there?"

"There's no reason not to. Plenty of Octolings have begun to enjoy Inkopolis life, so why can't we?"

"Did you forget what they did to us and what they did to Dad?"

Moira crossed her arms before putting one hand on her chin. "Though it is a bit insulting to Father in such a state, I can't exactly say he didn't earn it. He stole the Great Zapfish from the Inklings twice, hypnotized one of the Squid Sisters, and refuses to accept the fact that we lost the Great Turf War."

"Any Octoling with a bit of sense would refuse to accept losing the Great Turf War. Not only did the Inklings humiliate us, they—"

Moira sighed and muttered to herself, "Here we go again." As she listened to her brother quietly rant about the Great Turf War, Fushia finally came back. Though she was taught to not interrupt those speaking, listening to Octavious wasn't exactly entertaining. "Fushia, there you are!"

Octavious, though annoyed by the interruption, managed to push it off. "See? I told you she'd be here soon."

Moira went over to her younger sister. "Fushia, I was wondering if you would like to join me for a Sister Day in Inkopolis. There are plenty of things to do. Such as shopping or Turf War."

"Just the two of us?" Fushia asked.

"Well, it would be the three of us, but Octavious is being, as the Inklings say, salty."

"What about Agent 3? Will he be with us?"

Moira felt her herself blush a bit. "I'll make sure it stays just us."

Octavious scoffed again and went to where DJ Octavio was. Just then, the grate rattled and out came Agent 4. She shook herself off and, seemingly ignoring the Octolings, went to talk to Callie and Marie.

"Well, we'll be seeing you, Octavious," Moira said as she and Fushia made their way to the grate.

"Hey, while you guys are up there," Octavious started, "get me one of those Crusty Seanwiches those Inklings are always talking about."

"If you want that, you have to come with."

Octavious grumbled, "I'm fine."

"If you say so." And with that said, Moira went into her octopus form and passed through the grate.

"Bye, Octavious," Fushia said before following Moira.

Now in Inkopolis, the two sisters looked around and observed the Inklings, Octolings, and jellyfish that were enjoying themself in Inkopolis Square.

Putting a hand to her chin, Moira gave a light hum, "I wonder where we should go first. Perhaps we should check out the Galleria? Maybe Jelfonzo will have some nice shirts in shop today. How would you like that, Fushia? Or do you want to go somewhere else?"

"No, that's fine."

With a nod, they went to Ye Olde Cloth Shoppe and started browsing Jelfonzo's wares. Moira picked up a Mint Tee and turned to Fushia.

"What do you think of this one, Fushia? Personally, I like the color, but I'm not sure of how nice it will look with my ink color," Moria said before taking one of her light purple tentacles into hand.

"I think it looks nice."

Moira nodded. "Anyway, what about you? Has anything piqued your interest?"

"Well, I found this," Fushia said as she held up a Silver Tentatek Vest. "It looks nice but I don't have enough cash."

"Let's see," Moira mumbled as she looked at the price tag. "Only 62 hundred, that's not too much. A few Turf Wars and we should get all the cash we need."

Fushia nodded and followed Moira to Deca Tower and as they looked for the current Turf War stages, Fushia found something that captured her attention.

"Splat Zones?" she asked herself aloud.

Moira went over to Fushia. "Oh, Splat Zones, it looks like it's in League Battles this time." There was a short moment of waiting as they watched a match before Moira asked, "Do you want to do that?"

"I guess it wouldn't hurt to try, but I'm not good at playing aggressively," Fushia said as she got her Octo Shot.

"That's fine. You don't need to be when you have this on your team," Moira said as she pointed at her Gold Dynamo Roller. "It may be slow, but everyone knows it's powerful."

Fushia nodded slowly and followed Moira to the train so they could be brought to the stage. While waiting, they saw two groups; one was Team Blue—a group of Inklings that were known for their idiocracy and dumb luck and the other were two Inklings. Watching Team Blue, they saw Goggles, Headphones, Bobble Hat, and Specs gathered in a circle as they did a team cheer before heading to the train. Unlike Moira and Fushia who watched the cheer with some interest, one of the two Inklings seemed amused and muttered something along the lines of 'Wow, they're still losers.'

Judging from that response, Moira guessed that the Inkling didn't know of Team Blue's run with luck. Though she didn't plan on letting pure luck be the reason she and Fushia lost. Assuming the two Inklings were going to be their teammates, Moira decided to introduce herself.

Holding out her hand, Moira said, "Hello, it's nice to meet you. My name's Moira and this is my sister Fushia."

Fushia waved a bit awkwardly before the Inklings shook Moira's hand.

"So, what are your names?"

The Inkling boy with dark red tentacles and Dapple Dualies decided to answer, "I'm AŞ∞Peter, and this is J.J.."

"Hey," J.J., an Inkling girl with pink tentacles and a N-ZAP '89, said.

Moira nodded and had small talk with the two Inklings until the train arrived at Arowana Mall. The two teams got off the train and went to the Spawn Points on the opposite sides of the stage. The speaker started counting down, and as 'Go!' was screamed, the extremely iconic Splattack! started playing. Moira's first instinct was to jump into the air and sling ink onto the ground. She and her teammates made a beeline for the center. J.J. threw one of her Autobombs over the curve that led to the zone, followed by Fushia inking the wall and Moira swimming over to start covering the zone. The others were quick to follow her lead.

Halfway through covering the zone, two members of Team Blue appeared. Moira threw a Splat Bomb in their direction, startling them enough for Fushia to splat them. J.J. went to control the alleyway on Team Blue's side and AŞ∞Peter put a Squid Beacon in their alleyway before going to Team Blue's side of the stage. In the case that either J.J. or AŞ∞Peter were splatted or left an opening for Team Blue, Moira and Fushia were ready to hold down the center. Despite losing control of the zone to Team Blue twice, the battle was in their favor. Quickly regaining control and reasserting the pressure on Team Blue, the battle ended in a knockout victory.

Deciding they wanted a winning streak (well, mainly Moira), Moira and Fushia continued participating in League Battles. Moira was quick to catch on that the team struggled more whenever Fushia handled more offensive positions, so Moira either defended the center with Fushia and pressured the other team with her. As Judd yet again declared their team the winner, Moira smiled as a wave of pride washed over her. She was ready to go to the next battle but was stopped by Fushia.

"Hey, Moira, can we do Turf Wars? I…don't like playing competitive too much."

"That's fine."

The sisters went back to Deca Tower before boarding the train that went to the Turf Wars. The first few battles were at The Reef and after those, the stages switched between The Reef and Manta Maria. Similar to Splat Zones, Moira used her Gold Dynamo Roller to maintain control of the center while Fushia and the others backed her up. Save for a few losses, which was received from having the worst Turf War teammates known to cephelapodkind, (You know the ones. The nonstop squidbaggers and booyahers who make Level 1s look like Level 20s and are incapable of providing the most basic form of support.) they won every round. Moira let out a content sigh as Judd declared her team the winner yet again. She looked at Fushia, who, although was enjoying herself, seemed to be getting tired as well.

"Hey, Fushia, how about we make the next round the last? It's been a long day."

Fushia nodded. However, before the next round could start, the maps and modes changed.

"Or we could leave now," Moira said with a shrug, which got a slight laugh from Fushia.

The sisters left Deca Tower and went to Ye Olde Cloth Shoppe so Fushia could buy the Silver Tentatek Vest before going to the Crust Bucket. Moira bought three smoothies and three seanwiches and she and Fushia went back to Octo Canyon.

"Octavious, we're back. We bought lunch," Moira said and saw her brother still by their trapped father.

They gathered around the comically sized snowglobe and began to eat their lunch. Octavious took a bit out of the seanwich and smiled a bit before taking another slightly larger bite.

"I guess the seanwiches are as good as the Inklings hyped them up to be."

"Then maybe you should join us next time we go to the surface," Fushia started. "You'll be able to enjoy many more Inkling things."

Octavious almost scoffed but thought better of it, being that he didn't want to choke on his seanwich. After a while of miscellaneous chatter, Moira brought up Inkopolis.

"Hey, Fushia, you that song that started playing during our first Ranked Battle?"

"Maybe."

"Did it remind you of Dedf1sh's Splattack!?"

"It did sound familiar. Maybe it's a remix."

Moira took a sip of her smoothie before saying, "You know, Fushia, if you want, we can do this again tomorrow. This time, we can visit Inkopolis Plaza. It's not as active as it used to be but it still has its charm."

Fushia nodded. "I'd like that."


This is a request for SquidbaggerOfWoomyAndNgyesness. (I've had this request for almost a year and yet I wrote it in about a month and a half. Yay me. Okay, sarcasm aside, I enjoyed writing this.)

I almost used Splatoon names for some of these things instead of the Splatoon 2 ones. Anyway, as always, I took a few liberties, mainly by making Octavious a salty boy.

Anyway, I hope you enjoyed this one-shot. Until next time. Bye~
