Afternoon. The farmer boy was walking all funky, after that accidental land on the trash can. He needed a shower, very badly. Inklings around him are doing grimaces of disgust, as he's passing through them. He never felt so embarrassed and unlucky, in his whole life.

After a quick and relaxing shower*, the farmer boy got out his house and decided to explore the plaza, which he barely even seen. Once he got outside, a catchy music started to boom through his ears. The sound seems coming from a giant monitor, which is showing a rad logo reading "Inkopolis News Flash: featuring the Squid Sisters!"

"Hi everyone!" two female voices said.

The monitor shows two beautiful girls, wearing a snazzy outfit.

"Welcome to this new edition of Inkopolis News Flash! This is Callie, speaking." said Callie with enthusiasm.

"And this is Marie…" Marie said.

"And together we are… The Squid Sisters!" both announces while doing a cute pose.

"So, let's start off with the freshest news, shall we Marie?"

"Yes… you first."

"All right-o! The first news of the day iiiis…"

An image appears behind the girls: it shows a big cat that holds two flags with both his paws.

"Can't you believe it? Today is Judd's birthday!" Callie said.

"Really… that's a surprise." Marie said.

"Our favourite feline turns 10 years old, but he still has the spirit of a youngster!" Callie said.

"Only 10? It does seem a bit older than that…" Marie adds.

"Well, actually he reported himself this fresh news! I don't think that Inkopolis celebrate a birthday for him."

"Uhm… now that seems a little fishy."

"So, don't forget to give him your birthday wishes, if you see him!"

"Along with an oversized gift…"

"That was our first news, folks! Here's the second one!" Callie announces with joy.

An another image appears: this time it shows a human skeleton with very old modern clothes.

"Our archeologist did it again, Marie!"

"Did they broke an another skeleton…?"

"No! This time, they reveal an authentic creature from the past!"

"Ugh…! W-what's that?"

"That's an Apelour, Marie! According to our researchers, this species seems to be bipedal and possess very rude tastes in fashion."

"No kidding… our grandpa would have been done better than that."

"And that's not all! Near the creature, there was an ancient writing posted on a primitive piece of paper."

"They can write…?"

"Yes, but their language is very simplistic. I mean, what would you except from primitive animals?"

"Right… so, I hope that note is a complaint to their fashion designers."

"Well, it seems to say" Callie picks up a small monitor device and starts to read. "Splatoon, why are you so good? You changed my life for the better and that's why I'm writing this letter. I hope that in the world no one knows about, you'll be there without a doubt. Goodbye, Splatoon."

"Oh… I didn't except a letter like this." Marie sniffs a bit.

"Yeah… very touching. I wonder who's this Splatoon fella." Callie sniffs a bit too.

"Probably someone very dear to this Apelour… I really hope those two are reunited once again."

"They are Marie, they are… well, anyway! I guess those old species aren't so bad after all, right?"

"Are you already forgetting their awful fashion…?"

"Let's not think about that, anymore! We have the last fresh news for this edition!"

"What's it?"

The last image shows a weird blob thing in the sky.

"Oh, that's… an alien?" Callie said.

"It looks more like a big ink projectile, Callie…"

"True! But no one knows, where that thing landed."

"If that thing would be found, probably this news would be a little more detailed…"

"It appears that, right after the blob appearance, a loud noise was heard near the main plaza. Doesn't this make everything more mysterious?!"

"It's already a mistery, how this photo exists…"

"Oh, silly Marie! The young Inklings are full of resources. They always manage to surprise us veterans!"

"Or tricking us with the power of technology…"

"W-wait, why they would trick us, now?!" Callie asked.

"I guess to have a laugh, like they did with that news –Callie's secret boyfriend-" Marie giggles.

"M-Marie! I told you, to not speak about that thing again!" Callie blushes a bit.

"Eh eh, I always love those priceless reactions…"

"Y-you're a big mistery, now! I thought you'd never betray your sister!"

"I love being unpredictable, at times…" Marie winks.

"Well… ahem, I guess that was enough for today. Thanks for staying with us: hope you enjoyed this edition of Inkopolis News Flash!"

"Staaaaay freeeesh!" both the girls strike a cute pose.

The monitor now shows a commercial about a new soda. The farmer boy recognized that blob, being shown in the news: it was him flying towards the plaza! Luckily, no one did understood what that "thing" was.

"Hey there, buddy!"

All the sudden, Bars give a big pat in the back of the boy.

"That was extremely lucky, finding you here!"

"Ow! H-hi…" he massages his back.

"So, how did the flying go? Was the panel aiming right into the plaza?" Bars asked.

"Well, I actually landed in a trash c- Hey, wait a minute! Was the panel aiming right, you asked?!" the boy replied.

"Yeah! It was experimental, you know. I installed it without a problem and Mirii took care for the aiming. We… actually didn't test that thing yet."

"Y-you could have sent me, somewhere dangerous!"

"Oh no, that'd have been impossible… Mirii rarely misses a shot! She's that precise."

"Who's this Mirii?"

"A member of our squad, pal! Wanna join?"

"A squad… about what?"

"Glad you asked! You see, we need a fourth member before we can take on Clan wars. So, I was thinking… since we're best friends, what about you join us?"

"A war…? That'd be"

Bars took the boy's hands and starts shaking them.

"Yeah! I knew I could count on you, bud!"

"No wait, I don't want to join!" the boy replied, taking away his hands.

"Uh?! No way!"

"I don't like wars! The idea of joining one… makes me sick!"

"Dasquid? Do you even know, what I wanted to say?!"

"Yes! And the answer is no! Now, if you excuse me… I want to explore a bit, this place."

The boy left, but Bars quickly reaches him.

"Tell me your name, at least!"

"My name? It's Hun."

Hun leaves Bars behind.

"Hun…"

Bars picks up a walkie-talkie and communicates with his squad.

"Bars here. I kinda failed…"

"Well, why I'm not surprised?" Grina answered. "I told you to think better, what things you should say!"

"But I didn't got the time! I was lucky enough, finding Hun in the plaza!"

"Hun? Is this his name?"

"Yeah! I got that, right before he leaves behind."

"Well… I guess, you didn't fail as much as the other times. Come back to our base: I'll send Mirii to the spot."

"Ok! There's an another thing you sh"

"Not now, Bars. I have to talk with Mirii about the plan."

"B-but"

"Bars, do you really want to blow up, your not-so bad fail? I suggest to not ink this opportunity, too much. Over."

The communication ended and Bars sighed.

"Those girls… sweet looking, but so hard to deal with. Oh well, that's the life of a male!"

Bars leaves the plaza, coming back to the base.

*He used a special kind of water called "Inkling Water". Basically, it's created by the Inkling Society and it's used just like we use Water.
