Chapter 12: Disappearance
Anni's view
I was out on a midnight stroll when I saw the four Inklings that I played against earlier in an alleyway. I wasn't sure what was going on, so I stayed hidden but close enough to hear what they were saying. "I can't believe those guys beat us like that!", Kareo said, "And two of them were noobs, too!" "Not to mention that they had Anni on their team.", Nikka said, "That girl's terrible at this game." I continued to listen until I felt something hit my head, knocking me unconcious."
Saero's view
I was on my way to the Ammo Knights when the TV turned on. I turned to the screen to see Callie and Marie, reporting the stage rotation as usual. But when it ended, they had a special news flash. "Last night, a small group of Inklings went missing.", Callie said. "What could have happened?", Marie asked. "We have no idea.", Callie said, "But we do know who disappeared." "Here's the info we have.", Marie said. The screen behind them then showed the details of the missing inklings, which were the four I fought yesterday, but the fifth one really caught my attention. "What?!", I said out loud, "She's missing, too?!"
While working I just couldn't shake the thought of those five suddenly vanishing out of my head. 'I could understand the first four just being mad, but Anni too?!', I thought, 'Something just doesn't seem right here!' After I got my daily pay I immediatly called Nira and Dorea and told them to meet me at Cuttlefish's shack. 'I may not know what's going on, but I can't just ignore it!', I thought as I ran off toward the sewer grate.
