Alright, send in a review if you are liking the story so far!
"Midni... tried to attack you?!" Grina shook her head quickly. "Is this a joke?!"
"No…" Mirii's head shakes slowly, as her eyes closed. "Hun splatted her down, as she was trying to splat me…"
"What are YOU talking about?!" Grina frowned, as she bended forward. "Midni would never hurt anyone! I know her for some time and she is way too kind in front of others!" Her posture lifted back, as her arms opened. "How can you say she's the Midni I'm"
"Grina, I saw the entire scene from the security cameras…!" The man's mouth downturned, as his hands rubbed together quickly. "I-I was thinking your friends were thugs… but now that I'm recognizing your voice, the fact you even remember my name, let alone the whole secret name you are using even to this day… I'm actually thinking there is something right and wrong about this situation. It's the only thing which makes sense of all…"
Peter nodded as he turned towards Mirii.
"That woman attacking you was definitively my daughter… but she would never use Mr. Tiny to attack you like that."
"… are you saying that this Midni is not the real one?" Mirii's head rose.
"Or Midni is being possessed…! Oh no!" Peter's hands went on his head, as his eyes expanded. "OH NO! MY POOR DAUGHTER!"
"Please, Mr. Peter! Calm down!" Grina's right hand landed on the man's right shoulder, as her eyebrows were down. "This is not the time to get into panic mode, as you usually do!"
"Grina… you know this man very well, I assume?" Mirii's right forefinger and thumb rubbed together, as her head tilted to her right, while her eyelids were lowered in the middle. "Why are you so concerned about this panic mode he has…?"
"… sigh… well, I did had this opinion sealed inside me for all this time…" Grina's head lowered for a moment. "Mr. Peter, I think you should stop panicking like a mad man…"
"Bu-but my daughter!" The man starts walking in place, as sweat jumped out from his head. "She's in danger! I can't relax like this! Wh-what kind of father I would be, if"
"That's the thing, Mr. Peter!" Grina frowned. "Do you want to know why Midni grew this kind?! It's all because of your panic mode!"
The man's eyes almost popped out.
"Yes… Midni has a fear: the fear of you… fearing her." Grina's eyes closed. "She told me this fact during one of the quick breaks…" Her eyes opened. "Not only she hates violence… but she would hate using violence in front of you, since you would began thinking one hundred of fake theories of Midni becoming more violent!"
"NO! Th-that's not true!" His arms went up and down, while stretching sideways. "I-I would never think of that! My daughter is the only Squid who can keep me calm!" He bended forward, as his teeth gritted. "Her attitude, her voice… thousands of time better than any lullabies!"
"But she told me how you go miles away from anyone who seems to know how to throw a punch…! And there was even one time, where you explicitly told her to never attack anyone! Because you are scared of violence… of anyone who might become a"
The man starts looking around, as his right hand went on his mouth, as his teeth were chewing his right nails.
"Midniiiii… MMIIIDDNNIIIIII!" He sprinted past Grina and Bars. "DON'T WORRY! YOUR DADDY IS COMING TO RESCUE YOOUUUUU!"
"MR. PETER, COME BACK!" Grina starts running, as she frowned. "YOU WILL NEVER FIND HER WITHOUT ANY CLUE!"
"Let's do something, Mirii!" Hun bended forward, as his head turned towards Mirii, while frowning. "We can't let the situation get even more chaotic than this!"
Mirii nodded, as she bended forward and stared back. The two Inklings sprinted, running after Grina!
"MR. PEEETTEEEERR!" Grina's right arm was stretching up, tilting left and right, while her left hand was on her mouth's left side, sideways. "PLEASE, LISTEN TO ME! I WANT TO HELP TOO, YOU KNOW!"
The man turned to the left turn, going behind several trees and bushes.
"AAAAHHH!"
Grina's eyes expanded: she ran even faster, turning to the left turn. She slows down quickly, until her feet were standing on the ground. Her mouth opened wide: the man was looking at the girl, while his hands were holding an iron bucket.
"Her bucket… it was sticking out from the bushes!" He trembles. "M-my daughter…!"
Hun and Mirii came from the right side, turning towards the man: they stopped, both opening their mouths a bit.
"That bucket…!" Mirii's right forefinger was pointing at the bucket held by the man's hands. "That woman was holding it, earlier!"
"I found the bucket on that bush!" The man's right arm stretched, as his right forefinger pointed at a bush's lower side. "I can recognize this bucket everywhere…"
The man's right hand returned on the bucket's right side: his hands twisted the bucket around, until his eyes were seeing a signature.
"This old bucket… Midni was 7 years old, when she first got it." Peter's head rose back, facing the four Inklings. "It's a bit beaten up, as I would always say…" His hands rose, grasping the bucket and spinning it around. "When my daughter was young, she used to play a bit carelessly with this bucket… almost like she was attacking it!"
"Like, dude… why would a girl have a bucket anyway?" Bars shrugged. "I mean, that stuff reminds me of Turf Wars… except it seems downright ancient! I wouldn't want that… like, that's Retro's Retro if ya know what I"
"There is a reason for her to have this bucket…" The man's hands spun a bit, until the right forefinger rests near a signature. "… it's because of the signature you see right here!"
The Inkinators walked a bit closer, all staring down at the signature which appeared slightly blurry.
"Let's see…" Grina's eyes squeezed a bit, as she bended forward. "… Pesce Marino?!" Her mouth opened, as her head pointed towards the man. "Did Midni really met such star?!" Her eyes expanded.
Peter nodded, as his right hand patted the bucket.
