Inkopolis Down
Chapter 11
Britten Down
"You think I'm that easy to take down?" Britten laughed,
"Or me?" another Britten chuckled,
"Or us?!" the third Britten growled, in total, four Brittens were there.
"That's new..." Arnie muttered,
"What... this?" the first Britten chuckled, "Oh wait, you're not a Brittle star." she scoffed, "Whatever you.. Ah, I know what you are..." she chuckled,
"Great minds think alike, no?" the second Britten laughed,
"That's none other than a Crown-of-Thorns." the fourth Britten informed, "I guess I'll go pass that to the boss!" she laughed and ran off,
"Hey!" Tint yelled as he aimed his weapon in order to take her down,
"It's not worth it, Cepha's Lover." Arnie told him, "You'll die if you chase her."
"We have bigger problems here..." Splat said as he looked at the three remaining Brittens.
"I think we might need more help..." Cepha mumbled,
"And we got it..." Paprika muttered as a helicopter hovered over them.
"Let's go let's go!" four members of the Inkling military came down on ropes,
"I'll take care of them." the third Britten said and jumped over the original group, then confronted the soldiers.
"You, stop!" one of the soldiers, a woman inkling, yelled and held up her military grade Splattershot,
"Hmph..." Britten #3 grunted and then struck her with an arm whip,
"AH!" the soldier was knocked back and stunned,
"Fire!" the other soldiers yelled and shot her up.
"Ha!" Britten #2 took this chance to attack the others,
"AH!" Paprika was knocked to the ground,
"No!" Splat yelled and shot his partner's attacker,
"Mom!" Cepha screamed and also helped,
"Ah!" Britten #2 stepped back, "GAH!" she gasped when a huge spine penetrated her chest,
"Not today." Arnie muttered, "HA!" he threw her to a nearby speaker.
"Your duel is with me!" Britten yelled and whipped him on the back,
"AH!" Arnie growled and turned to face her,
"Surprise!" Britten laughed as she held his .96 Gal.
POOM! POOM! POOM! The weapon fired ink, since Britten did not produce poison.
"Grr!" Arnie groaned as he was knocked back,
"Watch out!" Splat yelled as they were being shot at, the next targets, "Get down!" he tackled Paprika and both dove to cover.
"Ah!" Cepha screamed as Britten aimed at her,
"Bye, little girl..." Britten grinned,
"No!" Tint got in the way, absorbing one blow,
"Cepha!" Arnie tackled Britten, "You don't hurt her!" he yelled and threw her to Britten #3, who was assaulting the soldiers.
"AH!" Britten #3 yelled as she was taken down,
"Ha... Ha..." one of the soldiers panted, "She's can't be stopped."
"I'm going to have to call support..." another groaned as he carried his partner, "Tactical retreat!" he told his group, "On the helicopter!" he yelled, and they all started to leave.
"They're leaving!" Splat yelled as he saw the military helicopter start to take off, and the police line was also moving back.
"Ugh.. there goes our help.." Paprika growled, then saw Cepha running to them,
"Mom, dad!" Cepha cried, "Tint! He's hurt!" she pointed to Tint's unconscious body laying no too far from them, "He got in the way! Oh! It's all my fault!" she cried,
"Don't worry!" Splat stood, "You stay with your mother, I'll get him!" he said and ran to Tint.

"You won't win!" Britten yelled as she whipped Arnie,
"Yes, I will!" Arnie growled as he avoided the strike, "HA!" he blocked a whip strike from Britten #2 with his thorn arm,
"Die!" Britten #2 swung her arm again,
"Not today." Arnie turned to face her, and using Splat's Luna Blaster, shot her at point blank range.
POOM! The blaster fired, and blew the poor brittle woman in half.
"Ah!" Britten gasped in shock as her second copy was torn,
"No regeneration for you." Arnie grumbled and blasted her other two halves until they were bits.
"Oh no!" Britten #3 said as her copy was destroyed,
"You monster!" Britten roared and whipped him fiercely,
"Ah!" Arnie growled in pain as the whip struck his neck and ensnared it like a leash, "Gah!" he groaned,
"You're mine... now!" Britten tugged and sent Arnie down, "Britten, take that helicopter! Don't let them escape!"
"Yes!" Britten #3 nodded and stared at the helicopter,
"Mounted Guzzlingun!" a soldier said as he got on a large mini-gun shaped ink blaster on the side of the helicopter.
TROOOOOOON! The Guzzlingun droned as it blasted a wave of ink down at the two Brittens,
"AH!" Britten was pelt by the hail of ink and her whip snapped, freeing Arnie from her grasp.
"Get the moving one!" one of the soldiers told the one on the guzzlingun and pointed at Britten #3,
TROOOOOOON! The guzzlingun switched positions.
"Ah!" Britten #3 screamed as she ran to avoid the blasts,
"Maintain low altitude!" a woman soldier told the pilot, and the pilot heeded her words.
"I'll take you out!" the gunner laughed as he kept spraying for days,
"RAH!" Britten #3 ran and turned her arm into a whip.
SNAP! The whip cracked, and tied around the metal bar on the bottom of the helicopter,
"Huh!?" the gunner said as he lost sight of Britten #3, "Where is she!?"
"What!?" one of the soldiers looked.
CRACK! The whip snapped inside and knocked the said soldier down.
"What?!"
"Here I am!" Britten #3 yelled as she swung herself inside,
"AH!" the soldiers yelled and tried to bring out their weapons, but the close quarters impeded that,
"HRAH!" Britten #3 cracked her whip and caught hold of the pilot.
"GAH!" the pilot gagged as he was strangled, and thus the helicopter lost control.
"Woah!" the soldiers yelled as the helicopter spun around,
"Hehehe!" Britten #3 laughed as she ripped her arm off, "So long, suckers!" she poised to jump out,
"Not today!" the gunner stood up and pushed Britten #3 back,
"You stay with us!" all the soldiers yelled and held her back with all their combined might.
"Hey! What are you doing!?" Britten #3 screamed.
00000000
"Watch out!" some police officers yelled as the helicopter came down.
KRAKABOOOM! The craft crashed in a violent explosion.
00000000
"Ha!" Paprika gasped at the sight,
"I didn't see her come out." Cepha told her, "Is she dead?"
"I hope so..." Paprika held her daughter tight...
