Alright, send in a review if you are liking the story so far!
"A-a grey liquid creature?!" Grina's face went paler, as her irises shrunk. "No… n-not that nightmare again!" Her hands went on her head, as her eyebrows went up and her eyes went watery.
The girl began shaking. Mirii turned behind, watching Grina and frowning as her eyes expanded and her irises shrunk a bit.
"Grina, what nonsense are you saying?!" Her teeth gritted.
"That's right… what about this nightmare…?" Aga's eyes squeezed.
"Ehm…" Hun lowered his head, as his eyebrows went up and his hands went behind his back. "… I think she's mentioning that monster we"
"HUNLEY!" Mirii jumped in front of him, as her arms opened. "STOP MENTIONING THAT!"
Hun's hands went on his mouth, as his eyes expanded a bit.
"Oh no, I'm sorry! I-I forgot about…" He swallowed silently, as he nodded.
"Mirii, what the squid is going on?" Tonna frowns, as her arms folded and her head lowered. "Why are you stopping everyone from mentioning this nightmare?"
Mirii turned behind, as sweat was jumping out from her head.
"Because the nightmare… ehm… it could trigger Fara's special powers…" Her irises went to her right.
"Fara's special powers?" Aga's head pointed at the little girl. "You mean her?"
"Precisely." Mirii nodded. "She… well…" Her face went paler. "Oh no, what I have done?! I-I can't let Aga know about Hunley and Fara's Master roles!" She sighed, as sweat covered her face. "Eeehhmmm… a-actually, u-using the word power i-is a-a bit too… much!" She trembles a bit. "She's just… s-sensitive! Th-that's the correct word!"
"She's sensitive because…?" Aga's right eyebrow rose.
Tonna frowns even more.
"She's lying: Fara can understand a person if she hears a specific word from them."
Mirii's eyebrows went up, as she trembles even more.
"Eh?" Aga turned behind. "How so?"
Tonna's eyes closed.
"Why, Fara is"
"I-I GIVE UP!" Her arms were swinging sideways, as her eyes almost popped out. "I'LL SAY THE TRUTH! I SWEAR!"
Tonna's mouth sealed.
"… I'm sorry, Aga: this information is a bit too personal." Her eyes squeezed a bit. "However, I'll let you listen to Mirii's truth instead…"
"Nnnnngghhh!" Mirii's right arm stretched forward, as her right forefinger points Tonna down. "B-before I do, I-I request a promise from b-both of you!"
"Uhm… depends…" Aga turns behind, as her eyelids lowered to the middle and her right hand swung a bit up and down. "… come on, what do you want?"
"You… yo-you must keep this information as a deep secret, ok?!" Mirii bends forward, as her face was frowning and her irises were shrunk. Sweat was coming down from her face.
"Sigh… what's up with you?" Tonna shrugged, as her head shook. "You know us! Did we ever shout out all your secrets?!"
"It's… well… I-I preferred to find a more secure place for letting you know…" Mirii bended a bit backwards, as her eyebrows' tips "smiled" a bit and her mouth was waving slightly.
"Well, this place is secure enough." Tonna bended forward. "Now, just say this secret!"
"… sigh…" Mirii's eyes closed. "Do you remember that mission where we had to prevent Agents into investigating in our treehouse…?"
Tonna nodded.
"Well…" Mirii's eyes opened. "We found out that our treehouse has a connection with Project Neo… and that connection is nothing more than a room."
"A room? The room where you found that secret government paper?" Tonna's eyebrows lowered down.
"Government paper?!" Aga turned behind for a moment. "Then the suspicions were true!"
"Tonna, the room wasn't important because of that… because said room isn't a regular one at all." Mirii took a quick breath. "It's a Teleporter device capable of bringing living beings into another, identical one!"
Tonna and Aga's eyes expanded.
"And ours…" Mirii's head lowered, as her eyes squeezed. "… took us in a secret base located in outer space."
"Eeeeeeeeeh?!" Aga tilted backwards, as her irises shrunk, her eyebrows went down and her arms went in front of herself.
"YOU WENT IN OUTER SPACE?!" Tonna's jaw dropped.
"Yes… that's where we found the grey creatures mentioned by Aga." Mirii nodded, as her eyebrows went up. "Actually, Grina and Bars only saw the first one…"
"Yeah, and that was enough!" Grina shook her head, snorting. "No way I would ever wish to see the second one…"
"The first one successfully copied an old man working inside that… station, you could say." Mirii's right forefinger pointed up, as her right hand was moving back and forth. "The second one came towards us as a living liquid… that creature copied my appearance, although said creature couldn't keep the appearance too well… the creature was able to talk and understand, albeit in a very primitive way."
"Oh turf, like… Bars is protected by copyright!" Bars' mouth rose. "No copying, no stealin'!"
"Same goes for me!" Grina's right thumb went on her chest, while her face was frowning. "Wh-what if those monsters at the Warehouse are more advanced and can get down our appearances like nothing?! How can you even distinguish the true us?!"
"I wouldn't worry about that at all." Aga nodded. "I can guarantee you that they cannot assume any other ink color… but I have to agree with the more advanced part." She frowned a bit. "Unfortunately, I don't know anything else… you have to figure out how advanced they are."
"Alright. Then…" Mirii's head rose. "I hope you can understand why I couldn't say anything about this, before…"
"In a sense…" Tonna's eyes were closed, as a sweat drop appears on her head's left side. "I wouldn't even pronounce a single word of it…"
"No, I think that is too excessive." Aga frowned a bit. "It's important and it must have been said earlier! Being scared did nothing more than slowing things down…"
"Bu-but…" Sweat was jumping out from Mirii's head. "Th-the information has strong ties with the government."
"A good reason to even forget about it…" Tonna's eyes closed, as her head lowered slightly, her eyebrows went up a bit and a sweat drop appears on Tonna's left side of her head.
"Do you remember what it was written on said piece of paper?!" Aga's eyes squeezed a little.
"Yes, it was a communication of stopped activity…" Mirii nodded twice. "The Department of Science cut the financial support, thus ending all the station's activities… probably those are still continuing inside this Warehouse you just mentioned."
Mirii's shoulders turned to her left, as her head pointed down a painting of two Orange Squids looking upwards on a blue background with dark tones on certain areas and light-blue blues around.
"Even the robot used for climbing the tree has ties with Project Neo… before moving out, I managed to completely turn the robot off." Mirii's arms folded. "Unfortunately, I still have to think of another way to reach the treehouse…"
"That is for you to find out." Aga walked past Mirii. "I'm sorry, but I stood here for way too long… I'm getting too worried about Stella."
Aga stops in front of the door, as she turned almost 180° from her right.
"Just follow the mission and remember about the warehouse…" Aga's right hand waved once. "See you soon."
"Wait a second, Aga!" Mirii bended a bit forward. "Please, help us passing through the Headquarter's database security defenses… there might be more information"
"Forget about it." Aga turned forward. "Recently, a new rule was created… the HQ cannot hold any Project Neo information, except some brief, harmless references spread in other HQ-related information."
"Nnnggh!" Mirii's eyebrows went up, as her teeth gritted. "Tell us where those important information are located now!"
"I wish I could…" Aga stops in front of the door, turning behind and shrugging. "The whole operation was handled by other Inklings…" Her eyes closed for a moment. "If I would ever tried to access inside the database, they would had spotted me and I would had received the accusation of data manipulation."
She sighed, while turning behind and waving her right arm sideways.
"Good luck." Her left hand pushed the door handle, pulling the door.
The woman passed the door, pulling the door towards herself until it stopped, releasing a loud clicking sound.
"I-I was so close…!" Mirii's teeth gritted, as her eyebrows went up. "… no, this is not the end!" Mirii frowned a bit. "I can at least stop the warehouse operations… I have that whole station to explore and also"
"Then, I guess there is nothing more to say." Tonna sighed, landing on her office chair. "You 4 can go to Port Sorriso… I will try gaining some time for trying out that nice Wall Surround Sound."
"For real, girl?!" Bars' eyes opened wide, as his mouth was smiling. "Like, let me try"
"I'm a woman!" Tonna frowns a lot. "You seriously need a language correcting course…"
"Nah, I don't think I will even know remember what that is anyway…" Bars shrugged, as he turned behind.
"Don't forget to describe the WSS, boss!" Grina's right eye closed, while grinning and opening her right thumb and forefinger. "Right now, we have Project Neo butts to kick!"
"Sigh…" Tonna's eyes closed. "This whole discussion gave me a huge headache…" She whispered.
"See you later, Tonna." Mirii nodded, as she turned behind. "Let's commence this mission."
"Yes!" The other three Inklings shouted, as their right arms went upwards.
Mirii smiled a bit.
"Aside from completing this fake mission and stopping the warehouse… it would be wise to get more information related to Project Neo and even prevent newer projects promoted by those criminals..." Mirii's head rose, as her feet began walking forward.
