"Mirii, I-I'm Hun!" He bended forward, as his fingers went on him. "We are friends, remember?! No, I mean… of course you remember!" He lifted his posture. "We are very dear friends…"
Grey Mirii's right arm went behind while bending, as her right fist clenched.
"… no."
Grey Mirii's fist swung forward, as Hun jumped backwards with sweat covering his forehead.
"Stop! I-I can't attack you!" Hun swallows silently. "I don't want to hurt you!"
Grey Mirii took some steps forward, as she moves her right fist behind…
"Please… pl-please…!" His eyes went a bit watery. "… d-don't you have a heart?! I-I bet you have one!"
Grey Mirii growled, sending a fist right on Hun's left shoulder: the boy yelped, as his right hand went on his left shoulder.
"Th-that hurted!" His left eye closed, while his teeth gritted. "Stop it, Mirii!" He was slowly walking backwards. "Please…"
"… you are pathetic." Grey Mirii's right fist went behind, while she was walking towards the boy. "You might as well lie down, since you refuse to survive…"
"Don't say that, please!" Hun's eyes went a bit more watery. "That's… … oh!" His mouth opened a bit. "Wait, wait! Th-the thing you are doing… it's not perfect!"
"Perfect…?" Grey Mirii stopped.
"Yes, not perfect at all!" Hun sighed while tilting his head down for a moment. "Didn't you say that being perfect means to use your mind and not rely on violence? And… not hurting the innocent as well?!"
Grey Mirii's eyes expanded, as her mouth opened wide.
"I-I…"
"You are acting more like a monster!" Hun's arms opened wide. "A mindless monster, who hurts friends, goes all roaring and… and it's not perfect. There."
"NO!" Grey Mirii took some steps backwards. "I-I'm perfect… you ignorant! I didn't used violence like a selfish monster! That was… this grey liquid! Yes, that's it! The grey liquid punched you, not me!"
"You… who?" Hun's right eyebrow rose.
"Mirii Hanache, obviously." Her head rose, as her arms folded. "Why such question, Hunley? … AH!" Her irises shrunk. "I-I finally regain control of myself! … no, actually…" Her right eye closed, while her teeth are gritting. "Nnnggh! Th-this liquid is… st-stinging all over me…! Ow… ow!"
"Don't worry, Mirii!" Hun bended forward, while frowning. "I'm gonna save you! … once I'll find out how!"
"Yeouch!" Grey Mirii was stumbling a bit. "… attack me, Hunley… your ink might take out this terrible liquid…"
"Attacking you?!" Hun's posture lifted, as his mouth opened wide and his irises shrunk. "Is this going to work"
"Nnggh!" Grey Mirii's eyes closed, as her arms hugged her stomach. "JUST ATTACK ME! Please… I-I can't hold this, anymore!"
Hun's eyebrows went down, his mouth slightly downturned…
"… forgive me for this, Mirii." His eyes closed. "I hope that my attack will not hurt you too much…"
The boy turns into a Squid, as he slid and jumped towards Grey Mirii, while spinning clockwise in midair, rapidly. His head impacted, as Grey Mirii screamed while orange ink covered her front side: she began walking backwards, as her hands kept sliding on the ink.
Hun bended on himself… springing towards Grey Mirii's stomach. He landed back on the ground, while his eyes were watching Grey Mirii, completely covered in orange ink, falling down behind her back, releasing even louder yelps and screams.
"Oh no!" Hun turned into his humanoid form, as he dashed towards Grey Mirii with his eyebrows up and his face getting paler. "MIRII!"
"Ow… ow…" Grey Mirii was panting loudly and slowly, as her right hand was on her stomach, her head was tilted to her right and her eyes were closed.
Hun bended down on the floor with his knees, as his right hand went over Grey Mirii's right hand.
"Mirii… I-I'm sorry!" Hun's eyes closed. "I-I wasn't able to"
"Hunley… thank you…" Grey Mirii smiled a bit.
Suddenly, cracks began forming all over Grey Mirii, as the liquid covered in ink began solidifying. It crumbled almost immediately after: the cement-like material located above Mirii began falling apart, moving towards her sides. Her eyes were still closed and her mouth sealed. After two seconds, her eyes blinked twice, as her irises moved to her left and right, before resting on Hun's face.
"It worked for real!" Hun rose his posture, smiling widely, as his eyes grew a bit. "Yes! Yes!"
Mirii smiled, as her eyelids lowered a bit.
"Th-thank you, Hunley…" She blushes a bit.
Hun blushes a bit, nodding and increasing his smile.
"Intruders, intruders!"
"NO, YOU IDIOTS! THEY ARE YOUR CAPTAINS!"
Mirii's head turned to her left, as her back lifted upwards and her hands rested each on a piece of the now solidified liquid: Squidon appeared from behind a container on the left, running and panting. His head didn't had his cap, nor his mouth was holding his pipe. Behind him, the same two liquid creatures which were still holding their respective buckets.
"AGH!" The captain's teeth gritted, as he stopped in a slide. "HELP ME!"
"Cap'n, we are out of liquid!" The creature resembling an Inkling woman turned behind. "I'll try stopping our troops!"
"Intruders, intruders!" From the left, several grey liquid creatures were walking towards the man.
The creatures were frowning, as grey liquid was dripping out from their arms, legs and head's sides. The captain yelled, as he dashes towards his right, grasping a short container and climbing it upwards, while yelping silently.
"Agents, please! Stop those monsters!" He coughed, while his knees and hands were touching the containers' top side.
Hun frowned, watching first the captain and then both the two bucket-holding grey creature. Mirii stands up, watching the crowd of grey liquid creatures stopping and staring back at the girl.
"Agents! Heeeeelp! Agents! Heeeelp!" An Inkling man-looking grey liquid creature was tilting left and right, with the irises bouncing and pointing in between the captain and the two taller, grey liquid creatures.
"They… are listening to them?" The Inkling woman-looking grey creature turned behind, as her hands grasped the bucket handle tightly. "How?"
"They are our friends, that's why!" Hun turned to his left. "Mirii, you must know that this old man is behind this whole madness!"
"WHAT?!" Mirii turned to her left, frowning a lot. "Sir, I order you to step down from that container and surrender yourself!"
"No! Those monsters are going to attack me, if I get down from here!" Squidon was trembling, as sweat was jumping out from his head. "Stop them first, please!"
"Your slaves…?" Mirii's head rose, as her arms folded.
Hun bended forward, clenching his fists and frowning, while looking at the man.
"He uses those monsters as a fuel for Project Neo machines! … I think…"
"Really?!" The Inkling man-looking creature turned towards Squidon. "Is this true, cap'n?!"
"It's not!" The man shook his head. "I lied to him, thinking that he was working for Project Neo! I'm just using you for organizing and preparing the cargo faster!"
"Using us?!" The Inkling woman-looking creatures turned towards the man, while frowning. "I thought we were friends!"
"AGH!" Squidon's posture lifted, as his teeth gritted and his face went even more paler. "NO! I-I MISPELLED"
"I was thinking…" Mirii's shoulders turned to her right. "Hunley, could you please attack those two? If your ink was enough to free myself from that liquid prison…"
"… oh? Ok…" Hun nodded, as he turned into a Squid.
"How dare you!" The Inkling woman-looking creature turned forward, frowning and moving her bucket upwards. "We are gonna hurt you, kid!"
The Squid began sliding towards the taller, Inkling woman-looking creature.
