"Oh, you're finally awake." That was the first thing Vidalia heard upon waking up. She was currently glaring at Marie and Agent Four, arms crossed and eyes narrowed. "Yeah, and? I thought the NSS was done with me?" she snarled, heavily angered.
Marie and Sakir shared a glance at each other, before the newer of the two agents spoke. "Well, we couldn't think of any other way to get you to come here. We...wanted to talk with you," she said, leaning to the side a bit as she supported herself on a Splatling. "Talk about what? What could you possibly want with me?" she scoffed, yet her expression soon softened upon seeing Kasai behind them.
The octolings arms were tied behind her back, even gagged with a cloth in her mouth, in nothing but her undershirt and shorts. Vidalia grew even angrier at the sight, walking past Marie and Sakir to kneel down in front of her. "Well you see, I obviously want my sister back. And you want to run away with that octoling of yours, so we wanted to male a deal with you," Marie said behind her.
Kasai gazed up at Vidalia sadly, almost in guilt. The inkling sighed, gently cupping Kasai's cheek with her hand. The action seemed to calm down the disstressed girl slightly, Vidalia turning to glare at Marie and Sakir. "Okay, then what kind of plan have you fuckers come up with?" she growled, standing protectively over Kasai.
Sakir began to explain, making little waving motions with her hands as sshe did so. "Well, Sharpfin, I am aware you were the former Agent 3 is this organization. This was years ago however, and I'm shocked that you are actually around Marie's age. I thought you were younger. Anyways, Marie was telling me of your skills, and we wanted to make a deal. We'll let you both go, without any harm to your little girlfriend or octolings, if you get us to DJ Octavio, and help us get Callie back.
Vidalia's face tinted blue slightly at Sakir's forner statement. "One, Kasai is not my girlfriend. Two, why would I ever consider that? From the likes of you two nonetheless. If you think that would actually work, you must've hotten drunk and fucked right in the brain because there is no way I would agree to that!" she nearly shouted, voice rising. Marie sighed. "That is the only way you two are getting out of here. You have two days to decide." And with that, her and Sakir left, leaving her and Kasai alone.
She quickly pulled the gag out of Kasai's mouth, untying her wrists and quickly bracing herself before Kasai tackled her in an embrace. A content sigh escaped the inkling, wrapping her arms tightly around the octoling and not even caring that their position had Kasai essentially sitting in her lap. "Are you alright? They didn't hurt you did they?" Vidalia asked, the edge of her voice leaving as Kasai shook her head.
"I was scared they'd hurt you, Vi. The stories you always tell, made them seem like mindless killing machines, and I feared the worst," Kasai said, voice shaking as she buried her head into Vidalia's shoulder. The inkling sighed, lightly massaging the suction cups on Kasai's head, which she knw calmed the octoling down at times. "I know, Kasai. I know that my decaripyions are overexaggerated, I apologize. But hey, I'm here now aren't I?" she questioned, teying to brighten the mood, a rare smile coming to her face as Kasai laughed slightly.
"Yeah, that is true. And I'm glad you're here Vi. I really am." Her eyes closed, her body pressed against the inkling's torso with her head on Vidalia's chest. Honestly though..the inkling could care less about the contact, leaning back against tge wall and resting her cheek on the top of the octoling's head, eyes soon closing and joining the girl in sleep.
Sakir walked in soon after, gazing at tge two for a moment before a small smile appeared on her face and she left, joining Marie outside. "So, how were they?" the popstar asked as Sakir sat beaide her. "Sleeping. They both were out cold on the floor. I'm guessing you never get much rest in Octarian society." Marie nodded, gazing forward. "You know, I'm joping Vidalia does accept our offer. Perhaps we could convince her to come back. And that octoling." Sakir looked over at her. "Why is that?" she asked curiously. Marie chuckled lightly. "Agent Four. It's time I tell you something..about Vidalia. That I've been meaning to tell you for a long time.."
