"I am not good at explaining. Leave this for another time."

==============

Brooks's P. O. V

Continuing where we left off, we got to the bus station and got to a bus quickly.

Cross: Now, *sits on a bus chair* you have to explain what in the hell was going on back there.

Brooks: Well, long story. I was alive 8 years ago, I was starting my training to be an agent in Squidbeak, the first EVER.

Nikki: I'm so confused. But you should be Agent 1 instead of Agent 7 right?

Brooks: I got found by the age of 7. Thus the nickname "Agent 7".

Cross: Still doesn't make sense to me, and you said you had a grave put at Inkopolis Graveyard, did he thought you died forever?

Brooks: Yeah, I was pretty surprised that he had to go the extra mile to just do that.

Nikki: Well I think he did that because you did something hero-ey or something.

Brooks: Guys, I'm super stressed out from the bombs of questions you made let's just rest for a bit, shall we?

Nikki: Okay Brooks, you can sleep now. We'll wake you up when we get there.

Cross: Yeah, I'll just chill here. Sleep man.

Brooks: Yeah... Cool you guys... *starts falling asleep*

A little bit later...

Cross's P. O. V

Cross: Hey, Nikki.

Nikki: Hm? What is it?

Cross: Tell me, are you getting along with us even though we are humans?

Nikki: Yeah, I was really skeptical when I first saw you two, I didn't know what to expect in human's attitude so my first instinct was to think bad of you two.

Cross: Oh, I see then. I was surprised too that our landlord said there's an Inkling living here with us so it was you, and we got along really well, so I'm happy about that.

Nikki: Let me check my phone if we're here yet. The sun is burning outside I'm not gonna burn myself with the heat. And I'll check the time also.

Cross: Yep. What time is it now though?

Nikki: It's currently 3:00 PM and the time to get there it's 3:15 PM.

Cross: So not much more we can finally get there. And Nikki.

Nikki: What is it?

Cross: I want to use my phone for a bit but Brooks is making it hard to get, so can he sleep on your lap?

Nikki: Huh?! *blushes* No! You do it yourself.

Cross: C'mon now Nikki.

Nikki: Fine then. It won't be long anyway.

Cross: Thank you. *puts Brooks on Nikki's lap*

Nikki: Sheesh...

Cross: Okay, *gets his phone* lemme text someone right now.

Nikki's P. O. V

I can't believe Cross would do something to me, it's so embarrassing, well I can't do anything about it anyway so I'll let this slide for now...

Cross: Nikki.

Nikki: What?

Cross: Look at this right now...

Nikki: Hmm? *looks at Cross's phone*

I saw the news, about a weird person playing in Turf War, that's definitely Brooks and Cross... So they already picked up on that? I should help them to disguise more, to look make them look fresher.

Cross: Can you come with us tomorrow?

Nikki: Why? Something bad happening?

Cross: We are going to my agency in Rainer City.

Nikki: I haven't heard of that before...

Cross: Yeah I know, but I and Brooks need new disguise clothes and you look really fresh so you can pick which clothes we choose.

Nikki: Before any further, what is the name of your so-called "Agency"?

Then...

Brooks: Guys! *yawns* are we here yet?

Nikki:*scared* Ahhh!

Brooks: Huh? Nikki, why are you screaming?

Nikki: *hits Brooks in the head* Hmph!

Brooks: Ow! Now that was uncalled for...

Nikki: Stop waking up to just to surprise me and Cross!

Cross: *chuckling* You should have seen your face in a mirror. You looked ridiculous.

Speaker: We are arriving at Inkopolis Square, please get ready to step off the bus... *repeats*

Brooks: *finished napping* Nikki, I'm done waking up you can get up now and leave...

Nikki: Just wait...

At Inkopolis Plaza.

Brooks: *arrives* Woah, this place is cool as well...

Cross: Not as big as Inkopolis Plaza though.

Nikki: I know it's small but it has more good places to go and more things we can do! We can even try out Salmon Run!

Brooks: We can't waste any more time here. Where is the new Ammo Knights?

Nikki: I don't know. I haven't gone to this place yet, which means it's my first time here. Let's ask someone here.

Cross: I'll ask someone. *walks up to the Crusty Sean's Food Truck*

Crusty Sean: Hey squiddo! What do you want?

Cross: I'm sorry but I'm here to ask something.

Crusty Sean: Okay, what is it? (Hm... This guy looks different.)

Cross: Where is Ammo Knights in Inkopolis Square?

Crusty Sean: Just over there, the far left end. *points to it*

Cross: Okay! I see it! Thanks!

Crusty Sean: No problem! I'm glad I'm helping. (For some reason, he doesn't look like an Inkling but whatever, I'm just thinking too much..)

Cross: *goes back to Brooks and Nikki* I know where it is now.

Brooks: Cool! I'm excited to meet that Sheldon guy.

Nikki: Let's go then.

Brooks's P. O. V

We got to Ammo Knights, it was a pretty big building for a weapon store but I didn't mind and we walked in into the door and we met Sheldon, he was so goddamn small compared to us 3.

Sheldon: Hello! Welcome to Ammo Knights, how may I help you today?

Brooks: Uh... Take this! *gives a letter to Sheldon*

Sheldon: Oh? So, you are an Agent of Squidbeak? (He doesn't look like an Inkling.)

Brooks: Yeah... And it says there to make me a "Squidbeak Exclusive Weapon".

Sheldon: Oh... I see then. I'll start working on it, but it will take a little while, but it's free because you gave me a letter from Cuttlefish.

Brooks: Great! How long it would take?

Sheldon: A week. And before I forget, what weapon do you want? And you can have multiple "S. E. W"!

Brooks: Multiple!? Really? But it will cost now huh?

Sheldon: Yep. I can't do anything for free you know...

Brooks: Okay, I'll pick Forge Splattershot Pro with Seekers and Kraken.

Sheldon: Not gonna lie. It looks that set would be so unfair in Turf War... Are you really sure about this?

Brooks: I had to do it, Mr. Sheldon...

Sheldon: Sheldon is fine by me always, but you'll get it in a week okay? Just wait for it.

Brooks: I see that. We'll be leaving now Mr. Sheldon...

Sheldon: Bye!

Outside of the Ammo Knights store...

Cross: I guess that stealth studies we had sure paid off huh, Brooks?

Brooks: You know it. *nods*

Nikki: Yeah, plus that weapon set you chose, we'll win every time...

Brooks: *chuckles* Just had to break the system. *smirks*

Cross: Anyways, let's get back home before nighttime...

Nikki: Let's go then guys... *walks to the bus station*

Brooks: Right behind you.

And that was it... We got to the bus quick, Nikki fell asleep, we got back to Inkopolis Plaza in no time. It was a successful day. We can continue our money-making tomorrow.

And my friends finally know that I am an Agent for Squidbeak. Damn, I really do hate explaining.
