"Man… this whole situation is really getting out of hand."
Tom was walking forward on the hallway, as his head rose and his hands went inside his pockets.
"I have experienced so many different situations in just one morning… I wouldn't mind getting myself some Normality back, for at least an hour or something." His head lowered, as his eyes closed, his teeth gritted, his eyebrows went up and a sweat drop appears on his head's right side. "Like, I could play that videogame I bought at the flea market… yeah, that would be"
"Eh eh eh eh!"
"What the?!" The man stopped, as he turned around.
An Inkling man was staring at him, while holding a paper on his hands. Out of thin air, Virgilia appeared while posing in the usual manner. Tom's eyes expanded, as he bended forward.
"… who are you?!" Tom took some steps backwards.
"I'm your worst nightmare…" She grinned widely. "… if you act as my enemy, of course."
"Wait… are you by any chances, Virgilia?!" He frowned, while bending forward.
"Dancy couldn't keep her mouth shut, huh…" Virgilia's arms folded. "Eh eh eh, yes yes." She nodded. "I'm Virgilia, a Demon Squid."
Tom tilted to his left, as his forefinger were pointing down at the girl, while staring back at the man holding his paper.
"Are you seeing this, dude?!" His irises shrunk.
"… yes, why the question?" The man smiled widely, while lowering his eyebrows and his eyelids.
Tom's face went paler.
"… oh-oh…" He swallowed silently.
"So, it seems you have found one of my friends…" She snickered, with her left hand covering her mouth.
"What's it, Virgilia?" The man threw the paper on the floor, as his right arm rose. "Is this mortal bothering you…?"
POOF!
A bamboo stick appears on his right hand, as he immediately points it down on Tom.
"Wh-what the crab?!" Tom's hands went near his chest, as his hand palms were pointed at the man in the distance, while he took two steps backwards.
The man pointed his weapon towards Tom, while closing his left eye.
"Are you already leaving?" Virgilia bended forward, while smiling widely. "Eh eh… we are not that mean, you silly Squid." She nodded. "Just… a bit on the defensive, that's all." Her posture lifted, as her head turned to her left, while folding her arms. "We don't like the idea of you meddling with our plans…" Her head returned forward, as she grinned widely. "But we can forgive mortals for the nice price of moving forward in your boring, ordinary life…"
Tom's head was sweating, coming from the top of his head too.
"Ehm… eeehhhmmm…" His eyes were pointed down at the weapon. "… sigh…" The upper part of his head went darker. "… it's all lost… I-I can't do anything about it, anymore…"
"So?!" Virgilia floated a bit forward, as her smiling mouth rose. "Your verdict?"
"… alright… you win." His head lowered, as his eyes closed. "Please, leave me alone now…"
"Eh eh eeeeeh!" Virgilia's arms opened wide, as her irises shrunk, her eyebrows were down and her opened mouth was smiling widely. "Good choice, my dear friend! You just saved yourself a lot of free time!" She grinned widely. "Eh eh eh eh!"
The man smiled, as his weapon lowered.
"… what's this madness anyway?" Tom's head rose back, as he frowned. "Are there more of you?"
"… he knows too much, Virgilia." The man lowered his head, as his eyebrows went down. "Shouldn't we silence him for good?"
"HEY!" Tom growled. "You promised to leave me alone!"
"Oooohh, look at the little Squid crying loudly…" Virgilia's mouth rose, as her eyebrows went up. "… eh eh eh!" She grinned loudly. "Did you really thought that you would get away with this knowledge…?"
Virgilia floated forward, as Tom walked backwards. The man began walking.
"I-I'll not say a thing about it!" Sweat was jumping out from his head, as his irises shrunk and he began shaking. "I-I promise! Please, believe me!"
"Don't go away… we will not splat you down…" Virgilia snickered. "… we will just give you a nice and easy mental treatment… eh eh eh!" Her eyes closed. "Come on, you will be fiiinneee… a bit on the airhead side, but it will be all for the"
"GET AWAY FROM ME!" Tom turned behind, as he sprin
He stopped immediately: several adult Inklings were all standing still on the red carpet, while smiling and staring back at the man, with their eyebrows down.
"WHAT THE?!" The man turned left and right. "NO! I-IMPOSSIBLE!"
"Eh eh eh! Trrraaapped!" Virgilia floated still, as her fists went on her sides.
"Now I get it!" The man frowned, as he turned towards the girl. "The HQ has been invaded by Demon Squids!"
"… eh eh… poor mortal." Her eyes closed. "You are so desperate to learn more information… alas, you are going to lose all this excessive interest. You will become an ordinary airhead… more air than head, to be honest."
Everyone except Tom began walking towards him. The man kept turning around, as he was walking backwards, then leaning against the wall.
"Aaaah ah ah aaaah!" Virgilia's eyes closed, while grinning widely. "Everything is going so greatly now!" Her eyes reopened. "Do you have any wishes, Mr. AirHead…?"
"Nnnnnhhh!" Sweat covered his face, as his head rose. "… I… I-I want to see Kelly again…" His eyes went a bit watery.
"Ooooohh…" Virgilia's mouth rose, as her eyebrows went up… "… eh eh eh!" She grinned, while lowering her eyebrows.
Her arms rose.
"AAAAAAAAANNDDD CUUUTT!"
"EH?!" Virgilia turned behind while frowning a lot.
Tom bended forward, but he immediately retreats with his hands up, while staring at the man's weapon pointed at him.
"… you are not one of us…" Virgilia's eyes squeezed a bit.
Her eyes were staring at Grina, which was grinning widely, while holding her smartphone with both her hands: the device was pointed towards everyone.
"Ding, ding, ding! You are a smart one, Miss Chuckling!" Grina's eyes closed. "Please, say more right answers in front of the camera!"
"AGH!" Virgilia's eyes expanded, as she trembled. "YOU RECORDED ALL THAT?!"
"Yep!" Grina nodded, while reopening her eyes. "I always had a vein for inspirational, awesome movies like this one!" She chuckled. "The scene, the atmosphere, the actors and actresses… perfect!" Her eyes sparkled. "The box office will be flattened from all the huge cash!"
"Actor… actresses?!" Virgilia's head shook quickly, as she snorted. "What are you talking about?!"
"Eh eh… you are still clueless?" Grina bended forward, while simply smiling. "I got the big documentary on the smartphone! It's going to sell millions!" Her eyelids lowered to the middle. "Just wait until the masses will see this wonderful masterpiece…"
"Oh yeah?!" Virgilia bended forward, as she dashed towards Grina. "They will see a broken down"
Pon-poooon! Pon-poooon!
"OUCH!" Virgilia stopped, as her hands covered her ears. "NOT THAT SOUND AGAIN!"
Pon-poooon! Pon-poooon!
Inkling adults were screaming loudly, falling down on the floor.
"AAAAAAAH!" Virgilia fell down on her knees, as her head almost touched the floor.
Tom dashed forward, reaching Grina.
"Let's get out of here! Quick!" Tom passed the girl, as his shoulders turned to his right, while frowning.
Grina turned behind, dashing behind him, as her smartphone kept using that loud sound.
