For today, school is done. Inklings get out of it, running with joy! Someone was more mature and walks out the building. Someone was so much interested in a school subject, that walks out while reading the related book. A certain group, walks out very frustrated… except one.

"So, guys… how did school go?" Bars asked first.

"Well… I think I got something called Note. I'm sure that it's not good…" Hun replied.

"It's definitively NOT good, Hun. I've got mine too." Grina said.

"How I'm going to talk with mom, after… this?" Mirii said with herself.

"Seriously, you all got a note?! Ha! I didn't got anything at all!" Bars said.

The three Inklings look at Bars.

"The teacher was like –I give up, Bars! I don't want to waste more time giving you another note, so please take your seat and follow the lesson.- . Ha ha, can't you believe it?! I was lucky, today!" Bars said amused.

Grina took Bars from the shirt and get him near her.

"Now, Bars… do you know who was that squidhead that, not only didn't test for INK the Jump Panel, but also proposed it to the team, which fell in that pile of garbage?" Grina asked.

Bars was starting to sweat.

"I-It was, Mr. Garbagehead?" Bars said in panick.

Grina did a loud laugh.

"Oooh Bars, what a great joker you are! You always know how to make us laugh!" Grina said.

"R-Really?"

"Yes! Especially when I send you to Inkbuktu, with a cute little kick in the back." Grina said.

Bars swallows in fear.

"But like you said before… you are lucky, today. You don't need to make the team laugh, now…"

Bars did a big sigh of relief.

"… you need to do our homework, for tomorrow."

"W-whaaat?! N-no Grina, please! Not the homework!" Bars begged Grina.

"Oh, but Bars… I didn't know you like to fly that much!" Grina replied.

Bars got even more panicked, since he doesn't know what worse punishments Grina had in mind.

"No, I don't like to fly! I like to think! Yes, I like to think and solve homework!" Bars said quickly.

Grina shakes her head, leaving Bars.

"If you really liked to think, we'd have two swots in our team!" Grina said.

"Uh… what's a swot?" Hun asked.

"Someone with the most curious mind of them all. Also very loyal, honest, gentle and generous." Mirii explained.

"In other words, something you don't want to be!" Bars added.

Mirii did a very scary, serious look on Bars, which in return he panicked a lot.

"No no no, wait! I was kidding, seriously! Swots are the best! I wish to be one, but I'm not worthy!" Bars said.

Hun noticed how Bars was more scared of Mirii, than Grina. He didn't disagree at all about that, since he got the chance to know Mirii a bit.

"… you better write those homework right, Bars. You don't want to make your situation even worse… right?" Mirii said.

Bars opened wide his eyes from fear and goes behind Hun.

"H-Hun, my pal! Please, help me do those homework! I-I'd rather fight a Kraken with my bare hands, rather than make Mirii m-mad at me!" Bars begged Hun.

Hun was going to accept the request, but Grina quickly speaks up.

"Hun isn't going to help you out, Bars. He's needed for the patenting." Grina explained.

"What?! Patenting?! That doesn't make sense!" Bars complained.

"Oh yeah, because the Mini-Kraken is so common those days… no way someone might get surprised by it!" Grina said with a sarcastic voice.

Bars understood what Grina said, while not admitting it.

"So, Hunry… shall we go?" Grina said.

"Hunry…? Who's Hunry?" Bars asked.

"Just a nickname for Hun. I'm getting sick calling him, with his normal name." Grina said.

Hun got a bit surprised by that sudden revelation.

"Oh… that's ok! I like that name." Hun approved.

"Good! Oh, by the way Bars…" Grina looks at him. "You're going to be a real Inkling and bring our bags with you."

"Uh?!"

Grina gives her bag to Bars and the other two Inklings did the same.

"I thought you'd come to the base too!" Bars said.

"We can't waste any time, Bars. I want that patenting right now, so Hunry can start his training." Grina explained. "Now, get in our base and start doing the homework."

"All right… I'll go! Catch you on, later!"

Bars took Robbo and he used it like usual, bringing all the bags with ease.

"Now Mirii, where is the patenting office?" Grina asked.

"It's in the Weapons Shop: Ammo Knights." Mirii answered.

"… why I'm not surprised? Who could have been more fascinated about weapons than him?" Grina said.

"I don't know how he'd react when Hunley shows up. We'd better cross our fingers and hope for the best." Mirii explained.

"Wait! Hunley?" Hun interrupted.

"Yes…? Is that a wrong nickname for you?" Mirii said, keeping herself composed.

Hun didn't know what to think about all those nicknames, he's getting! However, he just shake his head without thinking too much about it.

"Nice. Anyway, we'd better get going, since we're going to have a full day ahead." Mirii advices.

The other two Inklings agreed and off they are, towards the Ammo Knights. It wasn't too far away from school, so the trio reached it pretty quickly. Once inside, they could notice how bare bones the shop looks: it seemed more like an improvised laboratory! The shopkeeper quickly reaches his customers.

"Hi everyone! Welcome to my Weapons Shops! How can I help you?" the Shopkeeper greets everyone.

"Hi Sheldon! We're to patent a new weapon." Grina said.

All the sudden, Sheldon got very excited.

"Really?! Awesome! I'm so proud to see Inklings getting into the wonders of weapons! So, which weapon you want to suggest? Oh and also, I need the blueprints!" Sheldon explained.

The two girls looked at each other, getting a little embarrassed.

"Well, actually… it's a bit… special." Grina tried to explain.

"Special? Even more intriguing! What's it, what's it?!"

Grina pushes Hun ahead. Sheldon stood there for a moment, looking at Hun… then he started to smile.

"Ooooh, but this… this is miraculous! I can't believe how… how advanced the technology is!"

Sheldon was going around Hun, looking at every details.

"The details are… wow! Incredible!" Sheldon said while holding Hun's arm.

"And look at his hair! The painting is perfect!" Sheldon keeps talking, while the girls started to understand the misunderstanding. "He has even an automatic breathing-system inside him, too! I'd never guess this's a perfect Inkling replica, if you didn't told me!"

"… w-what's going on?" Hun said in fear.

"Oh?! Impossible! He can even talk and think on his own! I… I'm speechless!"

Sheldon took out his glasses and starts wiping his tears with a hanky.

"You two girls… you must be remembered in the Inkling History, as the first ones to ever created the first Inkling Robot. I… I need to know your names!" Sheldon said.

"What you need to know is that THIS is not a robot!" Grina said, getting impatient. "It's a real Inkling!"

Sheldon stood there, speechless.

"… WHAT?! W-why didn't you say so before?!" Sheldon asked.

"Because you got to Turfs faster than a Space Shuttle!"

"B-but ladies… I-I can't patent an Inkling! Did you drink too much ink, or something?!" Sheldon panicked.

"No joke, sir. He has something unique of his own. We request you to bring Hunley in the Testfire, to check his ability out." Mirii explained.

Sheldon started to think about it… then he reached a decision.

"Well… let's see what Hunley has in his sleeves." Sheldon said.

"W-wait! The name is Hun!" Hun pointed out.

"Oh! Sorry, Hun. Then get ready to enter my Testfire, pronto!"

Sheldon showed a door leading to the Testfire area. Hun did a big breath and he enters the Testfire with courage. Once inside, he could see a corridor filled with some weird balloons. The door behind him, closed.

"Now, Hun. Show me your special skill! Don't worry too much about the practice targets and start inking!"

Hun understood to use his swimming abilities in the area. He become a Squid and start swimming around, inking everything he could! The practice targets blown up the second Hun touches them. He shows how he was capable to hide inside his ink and climb up walls!

Sometimes he got a break inside his ink, but then he was off again! His performance destroyed Sheldon's expectations, while the trio was watching everything through a monitor.

"W-wow! That was…"

"Awesome?" Grina adds.

"Yes! How he does that?!" Sheldon asked, curiously.

"Beats me. But the very important question is: can he play Turf Wars with that skill?"

Sheldon was thinking about it… then he came up with something.

"Well… it's a little hard patenting that. However, we can open a Global Testfire and see how a random team will deal against Hun!" Sheldon proposed.

"Really?! A Global Testfire?!" Grina said.

"There wasn't one since 10 years ago." Mirii adds.

"Exactly! I'm going to talk about this with official Turf War organizers and prepare everything! Are you already in a squad, ladies?"

Grina smiled.

"Yes and it's still fresh new." She said.

"Cool! And what's its name?"

Grina and Mirii looked at each other, nodding together.

"Inkinators!"
