Ahhh here we go again, the time between chapter uploads is getting longer lately, well with the move and all, free time is getting short.
I'm currently working on another fanfiction based off an anime I'm watching, it's called Future Card Buddyfight and all 4 of its currently finished seasons and 4 episodes of season 5 are able to be watched for free on their official channel on YouTube.
It's obviously a card game anime, but I think it's really good, the show and the game, but since its popularity is pretty unknown, the amount of fanfics about it are kinda eh, so I started making one, it's gonna be shorter than this one, but I only plan on publishing anything new once this story actually reaches an end (if it does I would really wanna make a sequel, but I'll have to give this story's inevitable future some thought.
Anyways, questions I got in the reviews I will be giving short and sweet answers right now since I already typed a lot here in the Authors Notes:
Where am I moving to and from?
I'm moving to Austin Texas, believe it or not, as for "From", believe it or not, it's Hawaii (Oahu), it's beautiful here, but I am moving regardless, and I feel uncomfortable with adding further details.
Why did Sara faint?
FIND OUT NEXT TIME ON DRAGONBA-
*multiple things thrown at me*
Okay sorry, yeesh...
Yeah, your gonna have to keep reading to find that out =D
Anyways, ON WITH THE STORY!!
Agent 4 was currently having the time of her life.
Of course, being almost at Rank X, and being on a winning streak would make anyone happy, she had been playing for a while now on Tower Control (which is hard considering some squids/octos dont know how to GET ON THE TOWER), so Tower Control would be her first mode in which she would be Rank X.
As she walked into the waiting room holding her Hero Dualie Replicas, she noticed someone new in the crowd, a green haired male inkling holding the regular Splat Roller while talking to a pink haired male octoling with a Mohawk hairstyle, the inkling had his hair in spikes going back, a style that was very popular with males.
"Oh!" He said, noticing the girl staring at them, "wassup?" He said waving at her, she blushed and looked away, realizing she was bi, but also with high standards, so the fact that when she looked at this guy and thought, "damn he looks hot", meant... something to her, she remembers her parents saying she wouldn't get a girl/boyfriend if she kept going at her high standards, and only thinking people like Callie and Marie were attractive, so people she was attracted to were rare.
Yet here she was, taking small steps as she went towards the two, "h-hi, I'm Kelly" she said nervously, "Hey! I'm Ian, this tech geek over here is Orion, our names sound alike don't they?" He said smiling, he was clearly an optimistic type.
"H-hello..." she said to the Octoling, she hadn't interacted with any other Octolings other than Sara, but there were a few other Octolings in the room as well, "...hey" he said absentmindedly, he was holding a tentatek splattershot, and was currently analyzing his phone with a confused expression, as if he was wondering how it worked.
"Don't mind him, he's a weirdo" Ian said patting his head, earning a "stop that" from Orion, "also don't hit on him, like a million gals have tried, but nothing fazes him, though it's probably cuz he's Asexual, and doesn't have a crush on anyone" he said grinning, a quiet, "he's right" was heard from the focused Octoling.
"Anyways, how close are you to ranking up?" Said Ian, "I'm about to get to Rank X, Orion lost too many times though and nearly ranked down" Said Ian, earning a light whack to the back of the head from Brian, though Ian didn't seem to notice.
"Well I'm also about to rank up!" Said Kelly, "I hope we all end up on the same team!" She said shaking his hand.
All of a sudden, there was the sound of a bell ringing, and a big door opened up, words above reading "Battle time!!", in the room was a big device similar to a spawn station that transported the players randomly to their teams, everyone walked inside, "good luck!" Said Ian before he and Orion submerged into the ink, being carried off to a random team.
Kelly took a deep breath and submerged as well.
~10 seconds later~
Kelly sighed, of course this happened.
Both Orion and Ian were in the opposing team.
This ought to be fun.
~meanwhile, back with Sara and Sam~
Sara and Sam both sat on opposite couches in the living room, Sara still a bit damp, nobody said a word.
~meanwhile, in Sam's mind~
C'mon! Just say sorry!
That will make it more awkward!
How!?
We saw her nearly naked
And we need to apologize for not knocking first, which by the way, WAS A BAD IDEA, never letting you drive again
And apologizing will end up with an even more awkward situation!
BETTER THAN STAYING QUIET
YOU DONT KNOW THAT!!
~meanwhile, in Sara's mind~
Omg she saw us naked...
We were wearing a towel
It was falling off!
It still counts as not-naked
Nearly naked then!
Perfect, now, remember what we wanted to say to Sam?
Uhhhh the thing right?
Yeah, the thing
But it's too awkward!!
It will be awkward forever at this rate
What if we break up!?
If we had bodies I would slap you across the face, do not even think about that, we're still good! We've had awkward situations before.
Sorry...
~meanwhile in the real world~
"So Uhhh, Sara..." said Sam awkwardly, "y-yeah?" Said Sara, blushing, Sam took a deep breath before standing up, going to an open area in the room, and in an instant was bowing on the floor yelling, "PLEASE
FORGIVE ME!!", causing Sara to yell "EHHHH!?"
The following is what happened immediately afterwards:
Sam: IM SORRY I DIDNT KNOCK I WAS STUPID I WAS DUMB
Sara: EHHHHHHH!?
Sam: I DIDNT SEE ANYTHING I SWEAR, I ONLY LOOKED BECAUSE I WAS IN SHOCK AND TEENAGE HORMONES AND WHATNOT, WHAT AM I SUPPOSED TO DO...
Sara: W-wait it's fine...!
Sam: ...AND I LOVE YOU AND YOUR BEAUTIFUL AND I TELL YOU THAT EVERY DAY SO YOU KNOW AND IM REALLY SORRY...
Sara: please calm down!!
~10 minutes of yelling and panicking later~
The two girls, exhausted now, took deep breathes after the 10 minute long session of yelling and panicking, though Sam was still wheezing out some "I'm sorry..." with what little energy she had left.
They both looked at eachother while they laid on the couch, a moment of silence passed, before they burst out laughing, "Ahahaha! Sam... you have some vocal cords girl!!" Sara said, tears of laughter beginning to form, "ahaha! I'm sorry! Ahaha!!" Sam said in reply, this went on for like a minute before they calmed down, the awkward tension finally gone.
"So... Sara" Sam said, wiping a tear from her eye, "what was it you needed to talk to me about?" She said smiling, the Octoling thought for a moment, before smiling a bit and saying, "it's a bit of a serious subject... let's talk about it later" she said to the squid, "...okay!" Said Sam, smiling brightly, giving the Octoling a hug.
~meanwhile in Octo Valley~
"Damn those inklings, I don't know what they did to Clara, but I'm gonna find out!" Said Coral as she pushed the snow globe holding Octavio in a cart, "wouldn't it have been cooler if you stole me in the dead of the night?" Asked Octavio, floating around in the globe, "I wanted to try the sleeping gas okay!? Also I was bored waiting for night to fall" she said to the octopus.
The DJ still pushes the subject, "but still... in the middle of the day..." said the DJ as they finally got to the UFO, "it just feels wrong..." said Octavio, "I DONT CARE!!" She yelled, "I have bigger fish to fry!" She said to the Octarian, which was given the reply, "but we're on neutral terms with the Salmonids..." by the DJ, igniting am angered yell as she UFO flew off into the distance, Agents 1 and 2, along with Cuttlefish, sleeping soundly.
"...why didn't you take the squid sisters and the captain though?" Said Octavio, "I DIDNT FEEL LIKE IT" yelled Coral, "but isn't that a bad strategy..." said Octavio, until Coral pushed the cart close to the edge of the UFO, "Octavio, you are currently at my mercy, so SHUT. UP" she said angrily, "yes ma'am..." said the octopus.
Ahhh that was nice, and I introduced two new OC's to up the Male ratio in the story, Ian the Inkling and Orion the Octoling, they are gonna be in a lot of scenes together cuz BRO POWER!!
I don't plan on shipping Orion with anyone, I just thought Male Octoling needed some love so I brought these two guys in, and as stated before, he's Asexual so he isn't gonna get a crush on anyone, and to be clear, Sara was the one in the subways, Orion is just a regular Octoling who joined Inkling Society.
Also I didn't forget about the antagonist, plot stuff is still happening, even if it's not being written down ;)
I'm gonna take a bit of a break now since I'm about to be on a plane soon, though I'll likely be writing on the plane, so look forward to chapter 16! It's gonna be special, since 88=16, and the letter 8 is important in the expansion, so it will be here.
Anyways, thank you for supporting me! And see you next time!
