Chapter 10


Tenta and Boomer had slipped out of the camp late that night and ran over to Inkopolis.

"Wow... They really did a number on this place..." Tenta muttered.

Boomer craned his head, nodding a bit. "Tell me about it."

As they treaded the empty streets of the city, they looked through each store.

"They sure did a number on this place..."

Tenta nodded. "As much as we would like to pillage and take everything from the stores, we have to snag those grizzco weapons." She pulled out a diagram. "The weapons will provide an easier way for the inklings to destroy TarTar's minions in mass waves. So we need to grab em."

"Did you ask Kira?"

"Pfft. Of course I did!" Tenta lied. "She's cool with this."

Boomer gave her the side eye. "She has no clue we're doing this, does she?"

"Yeah no. She is clueless." She sighed a bit. "Booms, I wish Kira was single... She's so damn fine. And cute..."

Boomer groaned. "Not this again.."

"Just hear me out a bit." Tenta begged. "She's an inkling with the power to eliminate huge scale threats! She's leading a war! She's strong and beautiful..."

Boomer pointed to her. "Easy there, your drool could flood a city."

She straightened up and groaned. "It's that damned hot-head. I want him outta the picture so she could be mine."

"You do realize, she loves Chili. She also loves you, but she made a commitment to him. You have to respect her boundaries."

Tenta sighed. "Yer right... I want her to be happy."

He patted her back. "You'll find someone eventually."

They arrived at Grizzco and saw the weapons and special packets hanging from a rack. Tenta's smile widened as she eyed the prize like a dog would a piece of raw meat. "There they is! Cod, I can just taste victory!"

"Is there anyone in there?"

She shook her head and ran inside. Grabbing the packs by the handful and shoving them into a small compartment on her inkjet bag. "Damn, Grizz is so greedy. Give thems children something kick-ass!" Tenta turned her head to Boomer. "Yo Boomer, grab them weapons fer me, will ya? I'm kinda occupied right now."

"Yeah Yeah, I'll get em." He grabbed umbrellas, blasters, buckets and chargers, slinging a charger on his back and putting the rest in a bag.

Tenta giggled. "We really hit the jackpot now!"

Sanitized guards entered the building and shined a light on them. "Hey! What are you doing here?!"

"It's an abandoned building with shit to steal, why ya asking?"

"You are trespassing! You will be brought to the commander for sanitizing!"

Tenta's smile widened into a giddy grin. "Oh very well~. Might if I show you my favorite thing before I'm horribly killed?" She pulled out a mini splatling and opened fire on the sanitized, cackling like a mad-man as she splatted them instantly.

Boomer's eyes widened. "Holy shit... We're in trouble now.."

"Just kill anything green! It'll be fun!" She ran out of the building and turned on her inkjet, raining bullets from above, she splatted multiple sanitized as they flooded the square. She giggled insanely and let out a howl of laughter. "This encounter's gonna be explosive!" She fired several tenta missles onto the sanitized, splatting dozens, while Boomer threw splat bombs, auto bombs and more, while igniting a large bomb atop his head to splat the large group with, who didn't have enough time to run away."

Boomer yelped. "Shit! We got more!"

"Let them come! I'll kill them all with my precious toys!" Tenta screeched and let out a war-cry, bringing thousands of salmonoids and salmonlings to the square, as her maniacal laughter echoed throughout the area. Drizzler Salmonlings coated the square in a murky green ink from their storms and smacked the octolings with their metal umbrella devices.

"I'M MARY POPPINS BITCH!" One cried out and splatted them with brute force.

A Scrapper steam-rolled several octolings and honked their horns in glee, making doughnuts in the square using their ink. Maws wasn't far behind and literally popped out of the ground and ate people. Flyfish, upon Tenta's command, open fired and killed several more sanitized.

The remaining sanitized began to retreat, but was cut off by a steel eel and killed all of them like a conga line.

The salmon let out a giddy cry/howl/screech as they had defeated a load of sanitized. Tenta landed and rallied her folks. "Fantastic job everyone! We perform like that in the war and we'll win for sure!"

They all cheered and screeched as they raised their weapons high and chanted in salmonoid.

"As the moon shines in our wake, we shall bring forth the dawn of a new day! Elivrio Ne Viio!"

Their dull roar turned into a loud cheer as they repeated her words. "Elivrio Ne Viio!"

Tenta grinned and cocked her weapon. "We have taken back the city we will soon call home, and very soon, upon Captain Kira's words, we will storm the sanitized camp and take back what's rightfully ours!" She screeched and laughed maniacally.

A cacophony of laughter rung throughout the city and they scampered about, starting to repair the town and preparing it for an upgraded camp.

"It feels so good to be chaotic~"
