Hello everybody. I'm new here and this is my first fanfiction. I'm open to critiques and suggestions. thank you

It has been a year since inklings and octolings started living together in harmony. Ever since DJ Octavio was sentenced to prison, all the octolings were freed from hypnosis and finally got to see the sun. They moved from underground and up towards Inkopolis. At first, the inklings were skeptical about the octolings living in Inkopolis, but after they heard about what their corrupt leader did to them, the inklings felt bad fo the octolings, and greeted them with open arms. Now the octolings couldn't be happier, especially Marina, after finding out that her kind were free at last from DJ Octavio's brainwashing music, thanks to the work of the Squid Sisters. Life in Inkopolis was never happier.

Tonight's splatfest was Unicorn vs Narwhal. The inklings and the octolings were playing turf wars. Meanwhile, some were dancing, and others were even recording Pearl and Marina's performance. Everything was going well until an argument broke out between two inklings.

"Dammit Sam, I thought we agreed to be on the same team tonight." shouted an inking girl. Her tentacles were parted on one side, she had green eyes and fair skin.

"Oh come on, Lucy we both know that unicorns don't exist. Besides, narwhals are much cooler than some fairy tail." Sam snapped. He had blue eyes and his tentacles where in a lower ponytail and had bangs parted to the side, and he too was fair-skinned.

Sam and Lucy were having an argument again. This drew some attention to them. "It's not fair, every time there is splatfest you always pick a different team instead of the same one with me," Lucy said.

"That's because all the teams you pick are lame! " Sam said raising his voice drawing more attention from the crowd.

Lucy clenched her fists and shouted. " You know, you can be a real jerk sometimes!"

"Oh i'm being the jerk now? Right now you're being a bitch!" Sam yelled. Now all the inklings, octolings and the jellyfish stopped dancing and all began surrounding the two.

Pearl was the first one to notice them and stopped rapping. "Yo 'rina! looks like we got ourselves some party poopers. "

Marina stopped singing and saw where the commotion was coming from. "Oh my, should we do something about it Pearl?"

"Maybe, but let's see what's going on between those two."

They had cameras now pointed at the at the bickering couple as their shouting got louder. "EVERY FUCKING TIME I WANT SOMETHING YOU ALWAYS TELL ME IT'S LAME AND WHEN YOU PICK PICK A BAD WEAPON YOU MAKE US LOOSE! NO WONDER YOU'RE SO BAD A TURF WARS!" Sam yelled, earning some gasps from the crowd and Lucy herself.

Lucy got angry and then slapped Sam across the face, earning some more gasps from the crowd. Sam looked shocked and put his hand where she has slapped him. she had some tears in her eyes. "Lucy... But why?" He managed to say.

"Because... I thought our relationship will last, I even thought we'll get married. But now... now... WE'RE THROUGH!" She turns around and storms off.

"Lucy wait!" But he was too late, as he watched Lucy disappeared. The inklings and the octolings along with some jellyfish began whispering to each other.

"Damn, he got dumped. " one inkling said.

"Do you think she's ok?" another inkling asked.

"I should hope so"

"Alright yo, let's not let this ruin the splatfest. how about we turn it up a bit!" Pearl said as Marina got back to her DJ-ing, singing while alongside Pearl's rapping.

Everyone except Sam started dancing again. Sam just stood sulking. "You know what? Screw this, I'm going home!" He began walking away not caring about anything anymore.

Unknown to him was a certain octoling watching the whole scene. She couldn't believe what she just saw. "Poor guy, that must of been hard." She wanted to go ask him if he was ok but he was already gone.

"Hey Dory! We got a turf coming up, you coming?" a voice shouted.

"Coming!" Dory said as she turned and went off. The inklings and the octolings continued to party and played turf wars.
