Dawn of a Hero Chapter 2: The Break In, a splatoon fanfic

Chapter Two: The Break In

A female inkling looked at the rubble of Inkopolis Sqaure. She walked in a straight line, sometimes over rubble of smashed buildings and sometimes over cracked concrete. She stopped halfway through the square, looking at where The Shoal used to stand. She turned her entire body to it.

The girl walked closer, breathing heavily but silently. She said to herself, "Why…? Why did I…" the rest trailed off. She saw a few drops of blue-gree goo lying on some of the debris, legs sticking out from underneath part of it. She recognized the shoes, and dug threw the rubble until she found a male inkling's face.

The girl then drug him out and felt for pulse, but to her dismay, felt nothing. She started doing CPR.

Hub!

She pressed his chest repeatedly.

Hub!

"Wake up!" the girl shouted through tears.

Hub!

She pressed over and over… until she collapsed on the body. The girl stared at the boy's face, a tear falling away onto his shirt.

"What did I do… to deserve this…?" she asked. "What's wrong with me!?"

"*Snore* wait, what, huh?" An inkling boy sat up in bed. He heard music playing faintly outside the apartment. Today was Splatfest! The boy had never participated in one before, only coming here about a week before. But if you're wandering, he was sleeping all through the day to pull off an all-nighter at the Splatfest.

"Alright, Jet Lag, let's see how fast you can get dressed," he paced himself.

Ready?

Set…

GO!

Clothes flew everywhere as he dug threw his drawers.

Hoodie here!

Shoes there!

Headbands everywhere!

He stuck on Baseball Jersey, a Backwards Cap following. Next he put on the Red Hi-Horses, and just so you know, the pants he was wearing were the leggings inside of the shorts. Jet grabbed the old E-liter 4K hand-me-down his father had used so many faithful years. Oh… his father. How he wished to see him again.

Jet Lag brushed his teeth as fast as he could. If you saw them, you could tell his ears were a little bigger than normal, even for an inkling. Then he reset his ink color to the natural one. It changed from pink to yellow, with his eye color forest green. The boy's hairstyle was one called The Cool Squid.

Jet walked downstairs where his sister, Keys Lime, was sitting on the couch. She had lime green hair, and was wearing the Black FishFry Bandana. Her choice of the other was the Pink Easy-Stripe Shirt, brown leggings, and finally the Red Hi-Tops. Her hairstyle was the one called The Fashion Chic.

"Finally! You slept like ten minutes longer than me. When it comes to Splatfest, little bro, I'm impatient."

"Well this isn't your first time. It's mine!" Jet said, half joking and half annoyed.

"Is that a threat?" Keys asked, standing up.

"Maybe." They both snickered and then headed out.

-3 Hours Later-

"Hurry up, Jet, it's starting to rain!" Keys yelled.

"But Splatfest's not over yet!" Jet protested.

"Well, let's see, would you rather melt in the rain, since it's water, or get under something to actually live to see another one!" she laughed. Jet Lag sighed and walked into their apartment. Keys Lime went up to the room, saying, "I can't do an all-nighter this Splatfest. I'm too bushed…" But seriously, she slept all day! (LOL!)

"Okay, that's fine." Jet said. "But Team Octopus and I have a fine battle awaiting. To the lobby!" He started to run out the door, but was grabbed in the back of the collar.

"Did you forget already? It's raining!" Keys exclaimed. "Just come up to the apartment with me. It's 2:00 in the morning!"

"Alright…" he sighed. They went to the elevator and got in with another inkling. She had fair skin and blue eyes, topped off with bright green hair. Her hairstyle was the one called "The Standard". She was wearing the Backwards Hat, the FC Albacore, the original shorts and the Moto Boots. The girl was holding a Splattershot, although, this one was different. Instead of a pink strip down the side, it looked way more like a water gun and had a ton of green on it. In other words, it was the original version.

They never spoke to each other, but just stood in awkward silence until the elevator stopped. They got off on the same floor, and it turned out they were right next door to each other. The girl from the elevator quickly went inside her room, either eager or worried. But she had forgotten to close her door.

"Wander what her deal was." Keys said, once they were inside their room.

"Dunno." Jet wasn't listening. Keys went into the bathroom with a pair of pajamas, and changed her clothes. After she had finished changing, she put her Splatfest Team Inkling Tee back into it's original package-bag, and then sat down on the couch with a pillow and blanket.

"I'm bunking here, okay?" she told Jet. "I'm gonna watch TV as I fall asleep tonight." Don't ask, she was a TV kinda squid, (though Jet was personally one to watch YouTube all day).

"Okay fine." Jet heads back to his personal bedroom, not bothering to even get out of his gear or Splatfest Tee. Everything was peaceful now, listening to the sound of the rain and faint TV noises. He started to drift off to sleep. Yes, finally…

…and then he heard the neighbor's wall break in.
