It's 8:00AM. Every Inkling started to woke up. Kyle woke up. Then he noticed Any, who was still lay next to him.

- Morning, Sleeping Beauty. - he said.

She blushed.

- M-morning to you too, Kyle. - she answered.

- I see you two already woke up. - Tim was watching them with a smile.

- Yes. - Kyle said to him - We woke up already.

- Let's then start to get ready. - Tim said. - I'll see you around.

- Where are you going? - Any asked Tim.

- Cap'n told me that we must meet him and the others in 9:00AM. - then he left.

Tim's POV Start

I left Any & Kyle alone. While I was walking towards the destination point, I noticed someone. Every Inkling was looking at her.

It was a female Octoling. But... I heard their tentacles are officially red, but her ones... they have a pink colour. I noticed she's scared. I chose to help her. But then I noticed that someone was ready to splat(kill) her.

"shot"

Octoling girl was scared even more. She opened her eyes. She noticed that I helped her to survive. Everyone was shocked. Even Any & Kyle, who just left Any's apartement.

Tim's POV End

Maria's POV Start.

I just wanted to find my brother. I never liked DJ Octavio's plans. While I was walking, every Inkling here was looking at me. It was so embrrassing. Then I heard a shot. I closed my eyes. I was scared. Very scared. When I opened my eyes, I saw a strange creature, who just saved me from being splatted(killed).

Maria's POV End

Meanwhile...

Cap'n was waiting for Kyle, Any & Tim in the cabin with his granddaughters, Agent 4, Pearl & Marina.

- What is taking them so long? - Agent 4, known as Chris, asked.

- I don't know, bucko. - Cap'n said to him.

- Marina, we're going back to Inkopolis after them. - Pearl said to her best friend.

- Okay, Pearl. - then they both left.

They came back. They noticed that everyone is shocked. They also noticed Tim, whose whole body was having a blue colour. They also noticed a female Octoling, whose tentacles were pink. Not red.

- What happened here?! - they both asked.

Everyone pointed at the Inkling boy, whose colour was blue.

Any, Kyle, Tim, Pearl & Marina were having an evil glares. Blue couldn't understand anything. Then Kyle punched him. In the stomach. Causing to feel pain. Marina came closer to Maria.

- You're coming with us. Okay? - she asked.

Maria nodded. They all were on their way to Cap'n Cuttlefish's Cabin.

Cap'n's Cabin

- What took you so long? - Cap'n asked them - And what happened to you, bucko? - asked Tim.

- Shortly I helped this girl - Tim pointed at Maria - to not get splatted(killed). It's okay for me. We, humans, have some kind of immunity. But when it's the real weapon, then yeah we are weaklings.

- Gramps, what are Octolings doing here? - Marie was having a temper issues now.

- Yeah. They are our enemies, Cap'n. - Chris was agreed with her.

- Calm down, Marie & Agent 4. - Cap'n said to them.

- Don't tell me to calm down, Gramps! - Marie was ready to explode already. - And who is that freak? - pointed at Tim.

- Hey! I'm not a freak! Watch your language, young lady! - Tim was a good person, but sometimes it was very easy to make him angry.

- What did you said to me?! - Marie was ready to start a fight.

- You heard me! - Tim answered back.

- ENOUGH!!! - Callie yelled. - Both of you! I don't know what's going on here, but I'm sure you all have a good explaination of the situation. - She said.

- Gramps, where were you & Three all this whole time? - Marie wanted to know everything.

Sometime later.

After they all finished, Kyle & Maria left. They were needed to talk about something.

- So now we have eight agents, right? - Callie asked.

- That's right, Callie. - Cap'n said to her. - Besides, I wanted to let Maria join us as Agent 9.

- We already have eight agents, Cap'n. - Chris said. - Isn't that enough?

Then Tim said them everything about Professor and his soldiers. Professor is an evil genius, who can make robot versions of every creature he wants. He's now planning something REALLY bad. And the more agents will be there, the more chances Inkopolis & Octo Canyon/Valley will have to survive. Even DJ Octavio, who was still in his snow globe prison, said that it can be the best idea. Yep, he's evil, but if Professor will kill everyone in this world, then everything is done. Finished. Cap'n freed DJ Octavio and asked to be friends again. Like it was back then. Cap'n even said to him that they can help them, Octarians & Octolings, leave their horrible "prison". DJ Octavio agreed. Then he left.

Back in Inkopolis.

Amanda, Tom & the others arrived. They couldn't understand anything, what Inklings were saying. Then they noticed Tim, who came back with his friends.

- Tim! - they screamed.

- Tom?! Amanda?! Is that really you?! - Tim couldn't believe his own eyes.

- Yes. It's us, brother.

After Amanda, Tom and the others said everything about Professor.

- So he's planning to attack, huh? - Tim asked them. - When he's planning to attack?

- When the Splatfest will start. - Amanda said.

- But... but we're planning Splatfest tomorrow already. - Pearl said, but only Tim could understand her.

- What did she said? - Tom asked

- Pearl said the next Splatfest is tomorrow already. - Tim said to him.

Everyone started to get ready. Humans were having a real weapon, cause ink is like a paint to them.

Sometime later

Everything was ready. It was a nighttime now. Everybody was sleeping. Tomorrow the war between Humans, Inklings & Octolings will start.

slenderm1khail(Me) - Alright, everyone, what the ink(hell)?! I'm making the second book & you're even don't want to know what will happen at the end. I'll delete it then. Same with the first one.
