Alright, send in a review if you are liking the story so far!


"… like, why are we walking on the sidewalk?" Bars' head turned to his left, as his hands were inside his pockets. "Girl, we had a car before… it would have been faster and smoother if we just use that. Like, we could reach a parking lot and pay up." He shrugged. "Money isn't really that big of a deal for me…"

"But then you will not buy any videogames…" Grina's mouth opened a bit, as her head turned towards Bars. "… and all the sweet food you can eat! That's the ultimate treasure every Squid would strive for!"

"The sweet food…?" Mirii's eyes were squeezing a bit, as she was walking behind Bars. "Explain yourself: I want to learn more about the mortals' habits… so I can have a clear, better image of them."

"It's good stuff!" Grina closed her eyes, as she nodded and smiled. "It tastes great and gives you tons of energy!"

Mirii's eyes blinked, as her nose inhales a bit loudly.

"… I don't know if I should trust such statement." Her eyes closed. "After all, you three refused to help me out with"

"Mirii, I told you many times that my powers let you remember things you do not know…" Hun shakes his head, as his eyebrows went up. "Please, stop thinking about it, since that will give you a huge headache…" He smiles a bit. "Think a bit more about the park we are about to visit: it's natural and relaxing!" He nodded. "I'm sure you will find a lot of pure energy"

"Master, I came here to finish a task… not to relax." Mirii's right thumb and forefinger rubbed together. "Aside the fact I received the honor to accomplish a legendary deed such as recreating the Watching Tile… I hate the sweeter waters."

Her eyebrows went down.

"It's so superficial, so lazy, so…" Her eyes squeezed a bit. "Sgrunt! I can only see the numerous problems they have… and as if that wasn't enough…" Her head lowered down, as her hands pulled her shirt. "I'm forced to dress as one!"

She snorted.

"Wh-who thought of those dreadful clothes?! They are so bland, made just to exist… there is no decoration, no style, no"

"Whoa whoa, would you calm down a bit?!" A sweat drop appears on Grina's head, as her eyes closed and her mouth was a bit flattened. "Anger is not really a nice emotion… not only for us, but for you as well!" Her arms opened a bit. "Look, what would be the point of getting mad if you can't change your clothes?"

"… siiiigh…" Mirii's eyebrows went up. "Please, tell me the information I don't know… I-I can't stand feeling unaware of the situation! " Her shoulders lowered. "I must know everything concerning myself and the Shrine… I-I can't defend myself, if I don't even know my enemies."

Her arms hugged herself, as her head lowered a bit.

"Mirii…" Hun's right hand fell on her shoulders. "I said"

"Master, stop… I know your powers. You lied to me…" Mirii's eyes closed.

Hun's jaw dropped as his face went paler.

"… you know what?" His head shakes a bit, as his eyebrows went down. "I'm getting sick of the situation too, Mirii… I'm missing so much the real one, ever since the last hour!"

Immediately the two Inklings ahead turned behind with their mouth open and their eyes expanded. Mirii's mouth flattened, her irises shrunk. Hun kept looking at the girl, frowning even more.

"Yes, I said it… such a relief too, because I hate saying lies myself!" His fists clenched. "I don't say lies! I face down my days without hiding behind anything!" He bended forward. "Mirii, the Shrine ran an experiment on you… they are making you believe to be someone you are not!"

Mirii gasped loudly, as her right hand went in front of her mouth and her feet walked backwards.

"You are Mirii, yes… but you come from this place! Your family lives here, your friends are those who are watching you right now!" Hun frowned a lot.

"… I… I knew it…" Mirii's eyes blinked, as she swallows silently. "I-I didn't wanted to believe in such thing, since… w-well… it would mean th-those previous memories I had about the Shrine were all a dream… th-the life I thought to have is all a dream…!" She bended forward. "Then, if the speech you said is true… wh-what I should know about this situation?! What I have to do with you and this park…?"

"You are an Agent just like us." Hun nodded, while smiling and raising his downturned eyebrows a bit. "We have a mission to complete… there is no Watching Tile you have to repair: that was a lie told you by the works of magic."

"So, I'm supposed to be an Agent…?" Mirii's right hand covered her chin, as her left wrist rested on her left hip. "… then, I'll try to be the best Agent you have ever seen." Mirii's posture lifted, as her head rose. "I do not consider a job well done, until I gave my best at it!"

"Wow, I thought for a moment you wanted to know more about you…" Grina grins, as her eyes closed.

"I'll do that as well." Her arms crossed. "The Shrine is not my home… the sweeter waters are, unfortunately." Her eyes closed. "If I want to survive in the dreadful sweeter waters… I must understand the principles who rule those lands."

"Like, no offense or anything… but you are believing stuff like nothing." Bars' eyes closed, as a sweat drop appears on his head's right side.

"Barsy!" Grina frowned, as she turned towards the boy. "Don't say things like that! I mean, look at Mirii!" Her arms stretched towards the other girl. "She's trying to understand the situation… and you are throwing a curveball at her, as if you wish to see her deep in that pit!"

"Girl, like have you seen how Mirii is acting…?" His arms folded, as his eyebrows went up and his mouth flattened. "I mean, since when Mirii would ever act on like this? That's just plain bullship, girl! I know her for a real while… Mirii ain't Miss Believing Stars." His head shakes. "And seein' her that weak… ya know, that isn't really"

"What are you saying about Mirii?!" Hun jumped in front of Bars, as he frowned a lot. "She's not weak! Retreat your words!" He snorted. "She's so incredibly agile and smart! She can even be stronger than you, if she really wants to!"

"Hey hey, dude… like chill down." Bars shrugged, as his mouth rose a bit. "I wasn't really bashin' your girl friend… in fact, I wanted to help her out." His head shakes. "Correct her, if you will… like, Mirii is a friend of mine. A strong one too… believin' in ship like that ain't giving you much"

"Please, be quiet…" Mirii stepped forward, frowning at Bars. "I do have reasons backing my claims." She nodded. "I trust him, because I'm sensing the powers of a real one." Her head pointed at Hun, while smiling. "Also, the explanation provided by the Master does logically reveal the origins of those memories who never came from my past…"

"… well, like I see you are already on the road, girl." Bars chuckles. "Like, good news for my ears: for a moment, I thought you were one of those copycats"

"SHE'S NOT A COPYCAT!" Hun bended forward again, while frowning a lot.

"Barsy!" Grina's arms stretched down, as her fists clenched. "How dare you thinking that this Mirii is not real?! You should believe more than usual: not always is possible to find the logical explanation for any events! It's there, but… for now, focus on the rules which will never be changed by anyone nor be corrupted!"

Several sweat drop appears near Bars, as his hands kept on moving back and forth.

"Aaaaawww, shiiiip!" He sighed. "Why I said that stuff…?! Like, I should listen more to my motto: when the Bars talks, Squids will throw him chalks!"

Grina lifted her posture, as her eyes went slightly watery.

"Don't say that… you can be smart too… I-I believe in that!" Her mouth rose. "You helped me before with your intelligence…! Your way of thinking is much more deeper than I previously thought… you know that at first, I kept on treating you like garbage?! Thinking you will never become more mature…"

Her head lowered for a moment.

"Even Mirii thought of that… but we changed our opinions!" She bended forward, as her eyebrows went down. "We saw your intelligence… we don't want to see you lowering down to stupidity levels! Just… well, keep your eyes open more than usual." She blushes.

Bars chuckles while blushing.

"Girl, like… I understand the nice talkin' and all… buuut my point of views are a bit crushin'… that's the truth." He shrugged.

"Crushing…?" Grina's eyebrows went up. "N-no, I don't see that!" Her head shakes. "You are a kind Squid, Barsy! You would never step on others, as if they"

"Girl, it's not that I want to stomp around… it's that I'm stomping unintentionally." The boy turned forward, with his hands entering inside his pockets. "I wish to see where I'm stompin' from time to time, since I don't wanna crush my friends… but the Bars never looks down, not even when he trains about it."

Grina's teeth gritted a bit.

"I accepted this… life doesn't give you all the good treats in the world, after all." He lowered his head. "I'm a boulder, girl… whenever I see the downhill, I roll."

Bars starts walking forward, towards a gate entrance.
