Alright, send in a review if you are liking the story so far!
"Grina, it's all over!" Hun opened his arms. "I-I don't wanna die… no one wants that! We need to find Mirii and tell her to take the thing too!"
The girl kept staring at the boy: she nods a bit.
"… Greta Inkolina thrown inside a Squid can?" Her irises fell on her eyes' right corner.
They tracked a blinking red light on the top of her Ink Tank. Her eyebrows lowered.
"Keep dreaming that."
Suddenly, Grina throws two Burst Bombs towards the two Stinglings, landing between them: they exploded in orange ink, now flying up as small Stingrays. The woman threw a Splat Bomb containing yellow goo: the two Inklings dived, as some goo landed on Grina's legs. She yelled, with her eyes closed.
The two men start advancing, while their weapons pointing forward were shooting goo projectiles. The woman's left hand went down her left hip, taking and pulling a black walkie-talkie: she starts pronouncing sounds on it.
Grina threw another Burst Bomb: the two Stinglings threw a Splat Bomb each, as the Burst Bomb's explosion hit them. The girl jumped back, Hun sprinted forward: he dives while turning into a Squid and spinning clockwise.
SPLAT!
The man on the right flew off. The man on the left starts shooting, while gritting his teeth. The boy, returned normal, jumps towards him while becoming a Squid in midair.
SPLAT!
The second man flew upwards. The woman turned her back and run forward.
"Nice!" Grina's right thumb rose, while smiling. "Why you don't trust your abilities?! You are smokin' the competition!"
"I hate splatting others… unless they are the ones hurting me and my friends." Hun turns over the girl. "I still don't agree with your decision, Grina: we will not get any access by just using strength."
"Naaaah, you can put strength in the closet!" Grina's right hand patted Hun's left shoulder, as she walks forward. "We'll use our minds!" Her right forefinger taps the right side of her head. "You need that for any progress, anyway!"
"But they will never give us anything after this!" He walks, staying on Grina's right side. "Did you heard what that woman said?!"
"What's the point of capturing us, if we'll get all dead without any medical support?" Grina shrugs, as her head shook. "They will still give us the vaccine, but Greta ain't living inside any aquarium: they are even boring as homework!"
"Then, what are we going to do? Still looking inside rooms?" The boy turns his head forward.
"Yep! Same old stuff." She grins, as her head twisted to her left. "Let's begin with this one."
Grina's left hand pushed the door handle down, pushing the whole door forward: a male Smantie was resting on the desk with the eyes looking the girl down.
"Huh?!" Hun walks in front of Grina. "Could it be…?!"
The Smantie threw goo out of his mouth: it hit Hun's face, as his hands went right on his eyes. He yelled, while walking backwards. Grina threw a Burst Bomb, as her eyebrows went down.
SPLAT!
The smantie flew up, passing through the ceiling. Orange ink was covering the whole desk.
"Ugh…" Hun's hands were shaking up and down, as goo was jumping from his hands and touching the floor. "Phew…!"
"Why you lowered your guard in front of a stranger?!" Grina opened her arms, frowning and looking at Hun. "Don't you know that they could harm you in a jiffy?!"
"I-I thought he was a friend!" His eyebrows were up, while bending a bit forward. "I-I don't want to hurt friends… otherwise how could I be called a friend myself?"
"But you weren't giving a single care about yourself!" Grina's wrists were on her hips. "Trusting like that lowers your guard and gets you splatted in a second! If it wasn't for me, you were flying back to your parents."
"Grina"
"Forget adding words!" She passes the boy, stopping on the hallway and turning her head to the left and to the right. "Stingrays are our enemies! You trust them for a moment and they will get your back like nothing!"
Hun kept looking at the girl: he starts frowning.
"Hey, not all Stingrays are like that!" He walks towards Grina. "Two of them helped us not too long ago! No one is truly evil."
"Don't think luck AND truth are the same." Grina walks to the left, as her right hand was grasping her weapon. "You got tons of people who wanted to beat the splat out of you: do you really need more example?"
Hun was walking right behind the girl.
"Th-that wasn't the thing I wanted to"
"Hunry!" She turns behind, as her face frowns even more. "I get that not all Stingrays are splatter-happy, but do you really want to see us thrown inside a cage?! What can you do when you are all alone?!"
"Mirii is alone, at the moment…" Hun sighs loudly.
"She's a particular Squid: she has so many gadgets and an unconventional mind that she manages to break the lonely rule and do all the stuff! Ordinary Squids are stronger in teams, Hunry!" Grina's eyebrows went up. "I can't do anything without your help… and the same is said for you!"
Hun's mouth flattened.
"Promise to trust only me, until we get out of this dump. Please…" Her left hand rested on Hun's right shoulder.
"… I always trusted you, Grina." His hands fell on her left hand. "It's just you need to calm down… being calm helps you see everything better."
"I'm calm!" She retreats her left hand. "It's just my unconventional way of speaking!"
Both chuckled. Grina returned forward.
"Optimism is the fuel for our teamwork!" She starts walking. "Now everything feels like a walk in the park!"
FUM!
Hun jumped: a large puff of smoke was coming from the ground. The smoke gradually dissolved: behind Grina, a male Inkling wearing a complete black cloth and a silver belt. His tentacles were sticking out from the top. A katana cover was behind his back.
His right arm was bended around Grina's neck, as his left hand was holding a sai, which was pointing right on her neck. Her irises were shrinking and her mouth was wide open, as sweat formed on her forehead.
"… something is wrong…" His voice was whispering towards her right ear. "… I'm not sensing any powerful energy…"
"Ah… I-I'm sensing too much energy…" She swallows silently.
"… weak." He jumps backwards, while doing multiple flips.
Hun turns behind, while frowning: the man's right forefinger was pointing up, while the other fingers closed on his left forefinger, as his remaining left fingers were closing. His eyes closed, as his feet were close to each other.
"Weaker opponents deserve to live longer… the challenges never had any pity."
"Who are you callin' weak?!" Grina stomps the floor with her left foot, which moved forward. Her face was frowning. "All nice words when you got surrender by two Squids!"
"… insults are the only weapon worthy of the weak. They shouldn't be judge by that: their rank is already speaking." His eyes opened. "You, weak warrior… you cannot be the strong Squid I was seeking."
"Who's this strong Squid?!" Hun bends forward, while frowning and clenching his fists. "If you are daring to attack Mirii…" His eyes squeezed a bit.
"Mirii… she's the one I was supposed to meet." His eyes closed. "Alas, unpredictability can still penetrate through expectations… with that said, I shall leave."
"NO! DON'T TRY TO ESCAPE!" Hun sprints forward.
FUM!
Hun went through the smoke: he starts coughing loudly. Grina starts trembling, turning her back quickly: she was seeing boxes and small containers near the walls.
