Alright, send in a review if you are liking the story so far!
The sun was high on the sky, with one cloud passing in front of it. Grina's head was tilted up, as her mouth opened a bit.
"Ooooh… look at that sky!" Her eyes were sparkling. "This would had been a great day for a picnic…"
"Weren't you wishing to take a nap?" Mirii's head rose, as her eyelids were a bit down and her feet were walking on the sidewalk.
"Tch!" Her head shakes left and right, as her left hand opened and her left arm stretched a bit to the left. "Why, you are talking with the Greta Inkolina, Miss Perfection!" Her left hand returned to her left side. "If she's down for the count, how are you gonna see more episodes of Ink, Turf, Splat!?"
"I wouldn't… and that would disappoint many fans." Mirii's eyes closed, as her head lowered down and her eyebrows too. "In any case, you would better not wasting your energy already… I can't make Tonna madder than she already is, otherwise the Inkinators will lose all their progress."
"Aaaawww, but even if I'm as tired as a towel, I'd still drag my tentacles to all of you!" Grina's shoulders turned to the right, as her eyes were closed and her mouth was smiling. "Not that's going to happen as easily as you may think… but hey, in this case, it's important to at least hide inside the ink instead of super jumping back to the start!"
"Instead of hiding, you should manage your resources without wasting them." Mirii's head rose to neutral level, as her eyes opened. "That's one of the secrets for reaching perfecti" Mirii's eyes expanded for a moment. "… perfect status!"
Her head immediately turned to her right, seeing Fara staring her down. She smiles a bit.
"It didn' work…" Her eyes closed.
Mirii sighs, closing her eyes.
"But girl, sometimes it's not a bad idea wasting up stuff!" Bars grins, as his right fist punched his left palm to the left. "Like, it's a wonder you get to see only in a matter of seconds!"
"Hmpf… wasting resources to receive a meaningless entertainment show? Pathetic." Mirii frowns a bit, looking down the boy. "Without any weapons at your disposal, you are nothing. Let alone even wishing to reach perfecti… being perfect!" A sweat drop appears on her head's right side.
"Girl, like… who cares?" He shrugs. "Not that being perfect is wrong, but… it seems something for hardcore players, if you know what I"
"ARE YOU COMPARING ME TO THOSE LIFELESS ZOMBIES WE MET BEFORE?!" Multiple veins popped out from her forehead, as her irises shrunk, her eyebrows were down, her right cheek twitched and her eyes expanded.
"N-no, no!" His head was shaking left and right, same for his hands except they were going in opposite ways, as sweat jumped from his forehead, his eyebrows were up and his mouth was wide open. "I-I meant to say that you need to get the groove, in order to reach perfection!"
"… tsk, that's a bit better." Her head rose, as she took a deep breath.
Bars sighs loudly, as he chuckles a bit.
"But in all seriousness, those Squids are just beyond weird…" He turns forward, as his eyes closed and his teeth gritted a bit. "Like, not even I could ever reach that level of geekness…"
"But Barsy is never born to be the ultimate geek!" Grina turns her head to the left, as her eyebrows formed two smiles and her mouth flattened. "Why, you are a fresh Squid with a rhythmic attitude!"
Bars chuckles a bit, as his eyes closed and his cheeks blushed a bit.
"Girl, the Bars is a misunderstood citizen of the youth!" His eyes opened, as his head turned to the right and his mouth smiled. "I got triple As on videogames, but I can tell you when stuff is screwed up."
"Your statement is utterly screwed…" Mirii snorted, as her nose wiggled a bit. "The time you have at your disposal should have been used for reaching perfect status, instead of following what's ultimately a middling hobby."
"Come on girl, get real…" A sweat drop appears on his head's right side, as his eyes closed. "I even said those Squids have ink in their brains…"
"It's not enough." Her eyes closed, as her head shook left and right. She reopens her eyes, lowering her head and frowning a bit. "The road for perfection"
Suddenly, her hands covered her mouth as her eyes expanded and her back bended a bit forward. Her irises turned to the right…
"… perfect status… I-I said, perfect status!" She swallows silently.
"Technie…" Fara tilted her head to the left, while smiling. "… 'hat's ok… it 'appens."
"Nnnnggghhhh!" Sweat covered her forehead. "Wh-what are you implying…?!" Her eyelids were in the middle, as her hands slid down her mouth. "I-I truly said perfect status…" She holds her breath.
"Ok ok, I 'et 'hat!" Fara's eyes closed. "Don' worry 'bout it…"
Mirii sighs faintly.
"… as you can see, perfectii… perfect status is something I'm absolutely natural at it!" Her head rose, turning it forward. "I was born to follow this art and excel on every single portion of it."
"Yep! If you managed to be friends with Greta…" Grina's eyes closed, while smiling. "… can't say you are born loser!"
"Of course!" Mirii nods. "Everyone knows my fame… they even call me perfect status seeker! A title who's rather misunderstanding… but in the end, it does prove the worth I deserve after all the time I spent, perfecting my overall performances."
Her eyes were seeing a building rather tall.
"Enough talking." Her head rose, as her eyelids lowered a bit. "From now on, I want to see focus and dedication from all of you…"
Her head turns to her right, seeing Hun facing her. She smiles a bit.
"Hunley, you are granted permission for bringing your sister"
His head shook, while closing his eyes.
"I know that Fara wants to stay with me…" He opens his eyes. "… I-I just hope to not disappoint you!"
"How?!" Her eyebrows went up. "You are the epitome of seriousness!"
"Really?" He smiles a bit.
"My words aren't foolish: each of them has a stamp of approval from my part, which guarantees perfect sense!" She blushes a bit, increasing her smile. "Hunley, your behavior is perfectly coherent with style, grace and most importantly… intelligence!"
Hun chuckles, blushing even more.
"Bu-but I think you have even more style, grace and intelligence than me…"
Mirii's faced turned red, as her tentacles stretched sideways. Her heart starts beating faster… her head immediately lowered down, as her eyebrows went down and her irises shrunk.
"Wh-wh-wh… I… Iiiiiiii…"
"Huh?!" His mouth opened wide. "Wh-what's wrong, Mirii?!"
"Nothing to get all that stressed!"
Hun turns forward, seeing Grina's hands behind her head.
"Let's just say… she's preparing her speech for the future." Her shoulders turned to the right, same for her head, as her left eye winked. "Near… future."
Hun blushes a bit more, still keeping his mouth opened.
"Nnnnggghhh!" Mirii was taking deep breathes, as her eyelids were in the middle. "We are almost reaching the Headquarters… I want composure from all of you!" Her head rose. "Tonna's madness must be stopped… and in order to do that, she must have no reasons for becoming our enemy."
Her right hand took out a white, plastic card which has a photo of her.
"I want this phase go perfectly fine, without a single trace of errors… and this message is referred to you two, since I already know Hunley is carrying confidence and achievement!" She frowns down, looking first at Bars, then at Grina.
"Oooooh, girl…!" Bars shrugs, as he opens his arms sideways and shakes his head. "Like, have mercy on us! We ain't that perfection seekers like you…!"
"No matter." Mirii snorted, as she walks near a panel. "I warned you… that's all I can do from my position. I'll make sure to correct you, if I notice the slightest presence of mistake."
Her right hand passes the card on the panel.
Clic.
Mirii's right hand pushed the door: her eyes were seeing Tonna, standing in the middle of the hall, with her arms folded.
"Tonna?!" Mirii's mouth opened a bit. "Wh-what are you doing, standing still in the middle of"
"Please, don't even mention it…" Tonna closes her eyes, as she sighs loudly. "While I was waiting for you, I got a new mission task for the entire team."
"A mission?! Now?!" Mirii walks towards the woman, as her eyes expanded. "Put that aside: we must"
"WHAT DID YOU JUST SAID, MIRII KELPSHELL?!" Tonna bended forward, as her faces frowned and her eyes squeezed a bit, while her hands were on her hips.
Mirii stops, as her irises shrunk. Her mouth opened a bit.
"If you aren't aware of this… I'm your CHIEF!" She snorted. "When I say you got a mission, I don't want to hear complains… nor orders from an Agent."
"Tonna"
"Enough!" Her eyelids went up. "This mission is obligatory for all you four…" She inhales loudly. "I'll concede 10 minutes to prepare yourselves adequately for the briefing session: it's located in the same room, really."
Mirii frowns a bit, as her fists clenched.
"Tonna… why she's acting without any sort of respect?! I didn't say anything"
"Do you understood your roles?" Tonna folds her arms, with her eyebrows still down.
Mirii kept looking at the woman… her right hand went sideways on her forehead's right side, as her left hand opened and rested on her left leg's left side, her left arm was stretching alongside her left side.
"As one of the two Agents in Inkinators, I'll make perfectly sure all the members will arrive punctually!" Her head rose.
Tonna smiles a bit.
"Good, good!" She turns behind. "Then, don't be late!" She starts walking forward. "See you all later!" Her right hand was waving left and right.
Mirii kept her pose, as her eyes squeezed a bit.
"… no one dared to spit on perfection and run away with it. I'll make you pay for this, once I'll retrieve my lead back…"
