Splatoon: The Brothers 2: Paradise Lost

The State of Bates: Silly Synopsis

Before work on the next chapter begins, I would like to take the time to review the events so far in the story. It's been about a few weeks, maybe even a month before anyone has read this story, so I might as well help my readers try to understand this convoluted time frame seeing as I jump back between past, present, and future events like Marty McFly in the DeLorean.

So, basically...

One day, Tai and Aussie stood proud in Octavio's office. They were called in for reasons which the giant octopus samurai DJ would then describe to them. As you can tell, I for one, am greeeeeeaaaaaaaatly enthused.

"Go scout out a fortress or something." Octavio ordered the two Octolings, his gaze stuck on his boring classic records.

"Kay." The both of them replied in a monotone fashion, with Tai's eyelids fluttering in an attempt to stay awake.

As they stepped out of the base and into the fortress approximately seven steps to the left, the two glanced around the disparity and poor quality of this story, but not before they caught a glimpse of a most alarming sight.

"Oh ship. Wonder who could've seen this coming." Tai shrugged her shoulders over the dark pit that materialized underneath her. "'Cause I sure didn't."

Aussie blinked. "...Wait just a moment. Didn't something substantial happen before-"

"Too late, we're falling, scream." Tai yawned and stretched her legs upwards as the abyss opened up beneath them.

"Cod darn it." Aussie replied with a disappointed frown as the two plummeted, and screamed as they delved deeper into the unknown depths. Depths no one seems to know of because no one wants to read a certain someone else's story. Hint hint. Nudge nudge.

...Am I advertising right?

Anyways, the wind's whistle accompanied their fall as they descended into the depths of Octo Valley. Octavio glanced up from his record table for a split second, glanced around, and returned to spinning his records.

Thus this happens as a result:

Chi coughed as she was kicked in the stomach. The sadistic laughter of the creature that towered over followed as she was beaten mercilessly. The pain throbbed as she attempted to crawl away.

"Hey. Don't look at me like that." She heard the voice ring into her ears.

The words buzzed with an unfamiliar tone through her ears. They sounded alien and cruel. Though her body felt sixty tons heavier and her abdomen as though it were burning, she twisted upwards to face her assailant, stiff though she was.

He adjusted his dark sunglasses and sneered at her with one hand in his leather trench coat. "I know what you're thinking. But the funny thing is, I don't even-"

"Wait, who are you?" Chi's eyes narrowed up at the bizarre man.

He blinked for a split second, then glanced around the cave formation the two found themselves in. "...Where the hell am I?"

"Heeeeey!" A familiar, sadistic voice Chi recognized all too well chimed back in. "I'm back with the Octavio drone torture deviceeeeees!"

Chi and the strange dude blinked in utter confusion as Winst waltzed back into view armed with a club and a whip out of seemingly nowhere. Upon seeing the strange man she gasped and pointed in horror.

"Hey, stay away! She's MY personal hostage!" Winst hissed. "I'm the only one who gets to kick her to-"

Before she could argue any further, the story imploded, because quite frankly I am tired of writing and I shoehorn other official characters in too often. As the void collapsed in on the writing, a single line of dialogue emerged.

"I regret nothing."


AN: Okay so maybe it didn't happen exactly like that but I already forgot, I was busy...researching...video games. I think I'm reverting back to pre-Brothers and the Others writing. Ship. Well, if I start referencing obnoxiously again, I might as well bathe with a toaster again, because all my work will be ruined by my own hubris and blind passion again.

Oh well. This is ThePizzaLovingTurtle, I'm tired. I think I'll play ARMS when it comes out on Friday I guess. See you.
