Inkopolis Down
Chapter 16
Attack on Triton
"Yes, I see." a military inkling man said as he spoke through the telephone, "Well sir, frankly I can't see how we can do that in a major urban metropolis! Sir- Sir... I just don't find it feasibl- Sir, I know there have been dangerous criminals that are immune to all ink weapons, but are you sure that is the best way?"
He paused for a few moments,
"Huh... Yes, I know they have taken out police officers and soldiers... B- Fine." he groaned, "I will do it... I'll have him ready in twenty minutes, no more, no less."
00000000
"There he is..." Arnie muttered as Triton came into view,
"Ah..." Triton said as he caught sight of Arnie, then whiffed the air, "Crown-of-thorns..." he grinned,
"I'm telling you now to leave this city!" Splat called out to him, "Leave or else!"
"Or what, Crown-of-thorns?" Triton laughed, causing shock to enter the two,
"How'd he know?" Splat grumbled, then held up his E-Liter 3K, "This thing is charged! One touch of this trigger and your damn head is blown off!"
"Really now?" Triton laughed, "Let's see..." he saw the little laser dot on his cheek, "HA!" he yelled,
"AH!" Splat was spooked and fired.
POOOM! The blast hit Triton in the face.
"WHAT?!" Arnie yelled in shock as he saw the blast merely pushed the head of the man back,
CREEE... The muscles on Triton's necked groaned as he moved his head back into position,
"How..." Splat trembled, "That's impossible..."
"Hehehehe..." Triton laughed as the hard shell-like material on his face retreated into his skin, "Ouch." he said tauntingly,
"Step back, Splat." Arnie said and blasted the man in the chest with his Blaster,
"Hmph.." Triton grunted at each shot that hit him, some even making him step back.
"Come on!" Arnie said as the two moved,
"Hahahahaha!" Triton stomped behind them, "Leaving so soon?!"
"Paprika!" Splat yelled, "Do it!"
00
"Alright!" Paprika called out, then turned to Tint and Cepha, "Cut the rope!"
"Ok!" Tint said and cut the rope with a knife,
SNAP! The rope broke and a huge steel spike swung out of the building.
00
"Huh?" Triton turned to the spike that broke the window of the studio, "Ah!" he yelled as it headed straight for him.
KLING! The spike struck,
"Yeah!" Splat cheered, "Good job!" he gave them a thumbs up,
"Looks like he may get a stomach ache." Arnie grunted as he saw where the spike struck.
"Ha.. Ha..." Triton panted, "Hehehehee..." he chuckled evilly and moved his arms, revealing the spike had not penetrated him, but had the tip broken and was in his hands.
"Ah... Ah..." Splat looked with weary eyes,
"Still with your games and play things?" Triton laughed as he held the spike, which was now just a bar of steel, "Well I don't want to play!" he yelled and threw it back into the studio.
00
"Watch out!" Paprika yelled and tackled the two youths down,
CRACK! The steel bar came in and stabbed through the ceiling, getting stuck there.
"Close one, no?" Cepha laughed as the three hid behind a desk,
00
"Who is this guy?!" Splat asked Arnie as the two stared at Triton,
"I am Triton." Triton told him, "And my mission is to destroy the greatest threat I have." he muttered and pointed at Arnie, "The Crown-of-thorns Arnie."
"That's not going to happen." Arnie grunted, "We're going to take you out..."
"You? Take me out?" Triton chuckled, "Don't be preposterous... I will destroy you... and when I'm done with that, I will destroy all the Inklings, and after them, I will destroy all the Octolings, the Jellymen, the Anemonites, the Shrimpites, the Cuttlelings and all the creatures of civilization!" he yelled, "I will not stop, that is my mission! I will crush every last creature under my boot! All the Beacons as we- Wait... that's not our story... Oh well!" he scoffed and then fired the pistol he had stolen from the officer.
SPLAT SPLAT SPLAT! He shot Arnie, but it was ineffective,
"Not today, not ever!" Arnie fired his double barreled blaster,
"Ah!" Triton groaned as he was pushed back by the bast, "I got to protect my chest!" he yelled and made a shell like material appear on his abdomen,
"Splat, go with your family." Arnie muttered, "He does not want you... This is our battle."
"I won't leave you." Splat said,
"You can still strike him from the studio." Arnie informed, "You'd be better off up there."
"But-"
"No buts.." Arnie grunted,
"Fine..." Splat growled and ran off.
"I guess it's just me and you now..." Triton chuckled, "Ready to be Splatted?"
"Let's go." Arnie muttered and cocked his blaster, "Triton, this ends now."
"Big talk from a starfish.." Triton laughed, "RAH!" he charged,
"AH!" Arnie did the same, and the battle was on.
