Alright, send in a review if you are liking the story so far!
"Not bad... but you can only play with the shadows, not defeat them." His voice was moving to the right.
"Hmpf." Mirii rose her head a bit. "Your yelps are proving more than your claims."
"… we will see who's going to yelp more at the end!"
Suddenly, quick step noises were coming in front of the girl… behind the girl… even from left and right!
"Wh-what?!" Her head was twisting left and right.
A shoe goes right on her stomach: the girl yelled and fell on her back. Her legs went up in the air, then they fell back down on the road.
"Nnnggghhhh!" Her back rose. "How could I fell so easily inside the underestimating mistake?! I-I absolutely need to recover my concentration, before it's too late!"
She was bending a bit, her hands were on her stomach: her eyes were semi-closed and her irises were slowly moving left and right.
"I still cannot see too well… that man just found a way to increase the difficulty of this fight."
Quick steps were blasting in every direction.
"No… n-no, wait"
A punch landed on her left cheek: Mirii spins twice, landing on the road with her stomach down and her arms stretched along the road.
"You sure proved to be very annoying: I had to really get serious in order to send you down." His voice was coming from her behind.
The girl turns to her left, as her back rose up.
"If only I can understand quickly the direction he's coming from…" Jerkily, she stands up with her hands on the road.
"I'm getting bored fighting a pushover like you." From the point where his voice was coming from, a thin red laser was pointing down her forehead's middle. "The game is over, Squid."
"… not when I can easily see the gun you are aiming at me!" Mirii jumps to her left, sprinting with her back bending forward.
BAM!
Ink landed on the road: the girl's hands grabbed the man, as both the Inklings rolled ahead for some feet. With her posture up, Mirii's fists landed over each of the man's cheeks.
"NOOO, MY SUNGLASSES!" His voice was yelping.
The girl's mouth opened a bit: hands pushed Mirii back, as her legs went up in the air. Steps were heard a bit to the left.
"His sunglasses…! How could I didn't thought of that sooner?! What else he would had used to see better in the dark?! It wasn't even that hard to figure out!"
Mirii stands up, rushing towards the steps' direction.
CRUNCH!
A gasp left her mouth, as her feet jumped up in the air, with her head immediately twisting down.
"DARN IT! YOU BROKE THEM!"
Mirii grits her teeth. Quick steps were now coming from all directions.
"If he got angrier about this…" Her right leg bended.
PAM!
A thump noise came ahead.
"You can run like a seabull, but you'll see like a seamole." Her head rose, her fists went down. "Your sprint will be more useful as a retreat tactic, instead of acting more like a mindless Roller user."
"… certain habits are too strong to handle." His voice's volume was a bit low. "I kinda hate to say this, but… I have to go."
In small bursts of flashes, the lights from the lamp posts pointed down the road: the man's right hand was up, while holding a small device containing a small screen and several buttons underneath it. He was smiling.
"You are a very interesting opponent, Mirii… it's going to be hard waiting for the next time we meet again." He slowly turns behind.
"You still desire to splat me?!" Her arms folded, her mouth was downturned. "After this fight, I would think more about"
"It depends." His feet were still, his hands sunk inside his pockets. "Maybe next time I'll be more friendly than before, if there is no task in the way…"
His right hand came up, waving slowly sideways. Mirii's right cheek twitched, her irises shrunk.
"But… bu-but I broke his sunglasses… I-I attacked him... he even wanted to splat me… and he treats those consequences this poorly?! LIKE WE ENJOYED THIS MATCH A LOT?! RIDICULOUS!"
Her hands pulled her tentacles, as smoke came up from her ears.
"RIDICULOUS, RIDICULOUS, RIDICULOUS!" She kept stomping the ground.
Mirii was breathing loudly, with her teeth gritted: her feet starts walking on the road, increasing the speed.
"If you arrest me, I'll confess how you know about Project Neo." The man kept walking, with his head down.
The girl slides on the road, stopping and lifting a small cloud of dust in front of her.
"You may say that they will not believe me… then why you arrested me? I'm safer than a bank, Mirii." He chuckles a bit.
"Nnnnnggghhhh!" She bends a bit backwards, with her right arm bended in front of her body, as her irises were small. "Bu-but… but how"
"A bit unfortunate to see you so kiddy… keep winning fights like this and your overall personality will improve a lot." The man turns to the left, going behind a brick wall.
Mirii's arms were down, her mouth was open wide.
"… in which kind of world am I living? My enemy giving me advices?!"
Her right thumb and forefinger stood on her forehead, expanding wide all over it.
"My head is starting to spin more and more…" She shook her head quickly, as her eyes blinked two times. "I'll instead start to ignore this, with all my will… except the idea that the man will attempt to take me down from my back."
Her head starts turning left and right, seeing a stone wall on her right and iron fences on her left. Her back turns behind, her irises went down a bit: a black gun was lying next to a dark green street light.
"There it is: the gun left by that crook." She starts walking, with her eyes still pointing down the weapon. "It'll be safer in my hands…"
Her knees bended, her right hand picked up the pistol: her hand twisted a bit, as her eyes were resting on the muzzle, on the leather-covered handle… her hand went down, as Mirii turns behind once again and her left foot rose up.
"Of course when I'll reach my mother's apartment, this gun must disappear in my jacket's pockets… if there is one thing I don't want to cause is scaring her." Her head twists to the upper-left corner, with her mouth a bit downturned and her eyebrows a bit down. "I want to get my information with less penalties as possible."
Returning her head down, her eyes were seeing a dark-blue iron gate with a series of buttons on her right, divided in two columns and 5 lines: on each button's left side, a white tag with two surnames written on each. The girl's left forefinger rose, moving over a button.
FREEZE!
The girl gasped, as she turns behind: an Inkling woman had her right knee bended on the road, with her gun held with both her hands pointed at Mirii. She was wearing a light blue shirt, a dark blue skirt and a hat in the same color as her skirt, with a golden emblem in the middle.
On her left, an Inkling man was standing still with his gun pointed down at the girl: he was wearing a light blue shirt, a black tie, a dark-blue salopette and a white hat with a golden emblem in the middle.
Mirii quickly rose her hands up in the air, as her irises shrunk.
"PUT THAT GUN ON THE ROAD!" The woman's teeth were gritting, her eyebrows were down.
Trembling a bit, the girl bends down and releases the gun right in front of her feet: the two Inklings walked quickly over Mirii, with their guns still pointed at her.
"P-please, wait just a minute…" Her voice was a bit low, her eyes were getting a bit watery.
The woman grabbed Mirii's wrists, as her left hand took out a pair of handcuffs.
NO, STOP!
The two Inklings rose their head over the left. Mirii rose her head in the same direction: her eyes expanded, her irises shrunk.
"MOTHER?!"
