Today was the big day: they were going to take back Inkopolis from DJ Octavio's clutches. A lot of people were a bit nervous, but hopeful that things would return to normal. Jr wasn't anticipating the soon-to-come confrontation with his dad, but he masked those feelings and concentrated the mission on hand. He fastened the metal plate on his chest and turned to his friends who were all dressed up in their agent clothes.
"Are you guys ready?" he asked. They all grinned.
"You betcha." Teuta said confidently, clutching her Splash-o-Matic.
"Let's go get our city back!" Erink cheered waving his Krak-On roller in the air.
"Let's do this." Charlotte said, holding her Aerospray firmly in her hand. Jr smiled slightly and pulled out his walkie-talkie.
"The plan is go. Get moving." he ordered the Octarians. They began moving to their positions. Teuta, Erink, and Charlotte sent out texts to the Inklings scattered across Inkopolis. They began heading to their positions. The four of them began heading out too. The Inklings were doing a good job in warding off and containing the bad Octarians. Most of them were scared to get splatted, so they complied. Teuta received a text. Teuta read it aloud.
"The west side of Inkopolis is good to go. Most of them wussed out and we're taking them to Urchin Underpass." Her friends nodded approvingly. They continued making their way to the Plaza. The east end Octarians called Jr.
"Your highness, the east side has been secured. Where should we talk them?" an Octoling asked.
"Take them to Blackbelly Skatepark. I'll send you the coordinates."
"Roger that." He sends her the coordinates and they begin making their way there. Eventually the southern and the northern parts were under their control as well. Jr was quite satisfied with the results so far. Just the Plaza was left to take back and then they would be ready to take down the king. They walked by many injured Octarians who were on the opposing team. He really wanted to go patch them up, but he needed to focus on the mission. They fought off a few more Octarians before finally reaching the Plaza. There were Octarians scattered everywhere.
"They're making a mess of the place!" Teuta hissed quietly.
"We're greatly outnumbered. What should we so, Jr?" Charlotte asked quietly.
"I'll call back up." Jr replied. He called the Octoweapons. Within a few minutes they arrived. Upon seeing them, the Octarians were spooked. Most cowered in fear, not moving an inch from where they stood. A few fled the premises. Those ones who fled were quickly caught by Charlotte, Teuta, Erink, and Jr. Only one got away and that was an Octocopter. The crew didn't think much of it and began heading to the Octoweapons. The rogue Octarians were ordered by the Octoweapons to head to Blackbelly Skatepark or Urchin Underpass. They all complied and quietly made their way to either one of the places. Finally Inkopolis was theirs again. They crew contacted the recruits to tell them the news. Cheering could be heard across the city.
"Your highness, what's shall we do now?" Stan asked, speaking in Octarian tongue. The crew stopped rejoicing and focused on Stan.
"Get the Octolings to round up any injured Octarians across the city. Get them patched up." Jr said.
"Should we bring them back to the valley after?" Jr shook his head.
"No, don't bring them to the Valley. There's no need to go back. We all know how unstable it's getting and we don't need any more casualties. Just stay at the surface with them. The Inklings are working on a place for you guys to stay temporarily. We need to deal with my dad, so sit tight. Once it's resolved, I'll tell you where you can go." They nodded and bowed. They headed off.
"Where are they off to? The waiting area?" Erink asked.
"Yes. They're also going to find any injured Octarians around the city. Even if they were siding with my dad, they're still my responsibility and I want to ensure their survival. It's not their faults they were attacking us. They were just following orders." Jr explained
"Gotcha. We gonna head to the final boss now?"
"Yes. It's time to finish this." They stood and waited as the Octarians started clearing from the plaza. The Octoking would arrive soon.
Elsewhere, the Octocopter who escaped contacted DJ Octavio.
"Your majesty, I've got good and bad news." she began.
"Tell me the good news, yo." he replied.
"The good news is we found your son."
"Great, are you bringing him back?"
"Well, that's where the bad news comes on sir..." she said meekly, bracing for the worst.
"Well, what is it? Spit it out already!"
"He's taken back Inkopolis with the help of the agents, other Inklings, Octarians, and the Octoweapons, sir..."
"WHAT?! Those traitors! My own son?! This is total bull carp!" he yelled angrily. "Do you know where he is now?"
"I'm assuming he's still at the Plaza, sir."
"Grrrrrr... Fine. Let's settle this." DJ Octavio cuts off the transmission. He heads to his Octoweapon to prepare for battle.
