Agent 4 POV
Agent 4 the newest member of the New Squidbeak Splatoon. Her real name was Four, (coincidentally) her hair was the style known as the haircut and she was rocking the new hero suit Marie had made. Don't worry Callie, I'll find you in no time!
She dashed through the replica of the stage Muscle Forge Fitness. All she needed was the last mini zapfish plush, Octolings frantically tried to stop her but Four's determination to please Marie burned brighter. "There it is! Grab it!" Marie said in glee.
Her adventure through Octo Canyon had taken her about a month while Callie had been missing for about 5 months.
Tomorrow she was going into the final kettle, Marie had insisted. "But why not now, I save Callie, you guys reunite and finally fix your broken relationship!" Agent 4 exclaimed as she put the zapfish plush into the couch of the tentakeel outpost.
Marie winced and sat down "Look I want to find Callie too but… how do I even talk to her after all this time? What if I say something wrong… What if she chooses to stay with the Octarians instead of coming home?"
Agent 4 looked at her with worry as she continued "What if something goes wrong? What happens if you die? You're all I have right now…" tears formed in her eyes. Agent 4 brought her into a bear hug "I think I know why you look so tired and sad all the time." She said jokingly referring to Marie's eyelids.
"I know how much Callie means to you, all I want is the best for you Marie! At the start of this little escapade you were so sad and mopey!" Agent 4 exclamied. "Your point?"
Marie questioned "My point is that tomorrow if anything goes wrong" Which hopefully doesn't happen "I would kinda be failing at my job and be labeled a failure" Just like what my parents say, if I fail tomorrow I'll have three guardian figures hate me! No pressure "My goal is to reunite you two happily and make you happy!
My job is to save The Great Zapfish and Callie!" Marie sighed, sat down and gave Agent 4 tickets for Crusty Sean's Food Truck "Go get yourself something to eat Agent 4, Take care of yourself and rest up. Tomorrow is a big day and I know you'll win."
Agent 4 accepted the tickets "Make sure not to worry yourself tonight! Bye Marie!" Agent 4 waved to the idol as she went back to inkopolis square.
THE FINAL BOSS
Agent 4 determinedly painted the battlefield, all she had to do Marie would have arrived. The DJ slammed his fist down on the controls sending out two spinning fists barreling toward the new agent. Callie cackled at the sight of the agent frantically painting the floor.
As the fist crashed down, Agent 4 accidentally mistaken the two fists as stationary and started firing her Hero shot at them. She was getting antsy. The sooner I finish this, the faster and more time Callie and Marie will be reunited "Agent 4 those are the spinning fists things… what are you trying to do exactly." Marie said monotony "Wait huh!"
The Fists came flying towards Octavio and Callie, Still Spinning. Octavio Screeched while Callie obliviously watched the two spinning fist barrels towards them.
Four gaped in awe, her attack worked! A bit too well…"Agent 4 Im He-" Marie was cut off as an explosion echoed throughout the arena.
Agent 4 shielded her face from the debris, it wasn't an explosion she was used too. The heat from the blast was blown toward her, making her eyes water.
Pink ink was flung onto her as Callie's headpiece flew into her Hand. Agent 4 looked down in terror as Marie screamed in horror. Next a piece of Callie tentacle slapped Agent 4 as a sort of warning to what would come next.
The tentacle slid down into her hands revealing to her that Callie was still clinging onto life somehow. What have I done? She thought timidly. Her legs were crushed as she crawled towards the stunned Agent. One of her tentacles was deflated while the other was gone, her mouth was overflowing with ink."Callie! Are you okay? I'm so sorry!"
Agent 4 choked out as she looked at the crippled Idol, Callie replied with a strange gurgling noise as a piece of debris crushed Callie making all of her body parts, organs, and blood spray onto Agent 4. I had failed, I failed Callie, I failed The Great Zapfish and more importantly Marie…
Marie POV
Her ears stung from the explosion,the heat swept her off her feet. Panic rose in her chest, she called out to Sheldon "Sheldon get me down there!" as she pulled herself up. Sheldon gasped but agreed "Got it" he maneuvered the flying truck so that Marie could jump down and search the rubble.
Marie hopped down and called out for Agent 4 and Callie. She didn't care for Octavio to check, That OctoSlob got what he deserved, She heard a small wail as she stumbled towards Agent 4 who was curled up hugging Callie's Headpiece.
She was covered in Pink Blood and surrounded by organs. "Marie I'm so sorry I failed you!" Agent 4 cried out. Grief hit Marie like a bullet train "no… No…NO!" Marie screeched. She pushed Agent 4 out the way, getting some of Callie's blood onto her hands to find the remains of Callie's flattened and mangled body.
"Marie Im Sorry…" Agent 4 repeated. "SHUT UP, YOU LIAR. YOU FAILURE" Marie burst into tears, Agent 4 looked stunned as if she saw a ghost. Her outburst caused Agent 4 to curl more tightly into a ball as she repeated the words "Im sorry, It's all my fault, I'm a failure" over and over and over again.
What a pathetic waste of an Agent… I wish Agent 3 was here. He would have gotten the job done and much cleaner than her… Marie glared disapprovingly at the distraught Agent.
Agent 4 looked up at her with tears in her eyes "Do you think she will blame me? Wherever she is…" she whimpered "What do you think dipsquit, you killed her!" Marie hissed with no remorse. "Come on, let's go home. Maybe you can wallow in despair some more" Agent 4 stood up trembling as she hugged Callie's headpiece.
She can keep that stupid octarian head piece all she wants, it wont bring Callie back. Marie went to retrieve Callie's body, anger and grief boiled inside her. This is all Four's fault…
