Terrible news
Y/N's POV
Y/N!! HELP US!!
I jolt awake, beads of sweat pouring down my forehead. Panting, I throw the blankets off of my feet, and run to Callie and Marie's room.
"Callie! Marie! What hap...penned...." they still weren't there.
They have been missing for a few days now, and won't answer any of my texts or calls. I can't get a hold of either of them. Now this is really starting to worry me.
This is the second nightmare I've had this week. I have got to gain better control.
Wiping my forehead with one arm, and rubbing my visor with the other, I slowly step back to my room. I glanced over at the clock.
5:26 A.M.
After i cleaned the rust stains off my arms, I felt a little better. I then sit down and grab my phone.
I check all of the social media's for any sign of Callie and Marie.
There's nothing on Callie's SnapSplat story. Nothing on Marie's inkstagram, and no trace on either one of their squidbook accounts.
Frustrated, I groan and slam my phone on the counter.
No use.
*•*•*•*•*•*
I exit the apartment at exactly 6:02 A.M. off The Hook is staring their news report. With my parasol swung over my shoulder, I waltz through the square. Some Squids recognized me and worship me. Other newer Squids roll their eyes thinking that I'm just a show off.
You uncultured swines.
I was just about to lift the sewer grate up leading to octo canyon, when a big sparking noise and dim of the lights startled everyone watching the news. I look up and see off the hook with worried expressions.
"This just in...the great Zapfish is missing"
AGAIN? FOR REAL?
"And that's not all...we have some really bad news..."
Oh?
"R.I.P. Squid Sisters..."
What the heck did she just say?
"We're sad to announce that Callie and Marie of the squid sisters...have both gone missing..."
W-what...?
"They were last sighted by the drain between worlds"
C-Callie? Marie?
"Amateur reporters say they saw some sketchy looking figures knocking them out and carrying them away, but no photographic evidence was recorded." pearl reported.
This isn't...this can't be happening.
"I hope they are found soon. The octarian world is a bad bad place," Marina croaked.
"Yeah. Callie was always my favorite squid Sister growing up. Good luck out there!" Pearl says half heartedly.
I couldn't tell if I was more mad about her being Team Callie or her being so "concerned" about Callie.
I put pearl liking Callie out of my mind and took in the big picture.
My sisters are gone.
And there is nowhere they could be except for the fiery pits of Octo Canyon.
What happened to them? Where are they now? What has Octavio done to them? Was it voluntarily?
I threw my hands to my head and fell to my knees. Marie's parasol knocked to the ground, creating a deafening crash, and causing other inklings to stare. I felt tears starting to form. A lump in my throat was making it hard to breathe. As I'm crying and screaming, Squids crowded around me. The last thing I wanted.
"Y/N, are you okay?"
"Y/N what's wrong?"
"Sir? Everything okay?"
"Hel-"
"LEAVE ME ALONE!"
I shouted and charged through the crown and rifted through the grate, without another word.
Anastasia's POV
The beautiful girls Pearl and Marina had just finished their report. I was feeling the sadness as I saw Callie and Marie were missing.
Y/N was not feeling any happies either. I saw Squids gather around him and bother him, then he charged through them and left.
Poor Y/N. Misses Callie and Marie.
I knew that he was sad and feeling scared. But he needed a friend to come help.
I knew just the friend.
•*•*•*•*•*•"
Annie? We need you! It's emergency!"
In the back of the flow's headgear shop, is where Annie ran her internet business. She sold little charms and keychains she had made. Ever since the market had crashed in Inkopolis plaza, she went bankrupt, and couldn't afford an apartment. She had to sell everything she had. What she wouldn't sell was moe. He'd get a good couple bucks, but once you heard him shout you'd be running for the hills. Flow let her stay until she made enough to rent her own apartment.
"E-emergency? What is it a-about?" Annie stuttered.
"Callie and Marie are missing and Y/N is heartbroken"
Annie didn't say anything else. She grabbed a small package, and grabbed my jellyfish arm. We strolled to the drain between worlds, and knocked. We could hear Y/N crying down below, so we didn't really go down there.
Annie opened the hatch, and threw the package down, and simply turned around.
"What was In there, Annie?" I asked
"Well I made some traditional art for her and didn't know when I should do it. I figured now would be a good time"
Y/N's POV
I was alone in the drain crying uncontrollably for what felt like years. I couldn't stop, and I wasn't sure how much was left in there.
I heard a knock on the drain, but I didn't answer because I was too busy crying my visor out.
I heard small bouncing noises, and a little brown package tied together with a green string was rolling to my knees. I wiped a tear out of my eye and sniffed, carefully tearing back the paper.
It was a small sketch of me with Marie and Callie in their traditional kimonos. I grinned a little bit, but got sad all over again, knowing that this might never become real.
I'm so sorry girls...
Then it hit me. I saw one of our old agents from inkopolis plaza in the square.
That's it! Iris! She can help me!!!
Collecting my confidence and my strength to face the public again, I quickly get up and dash out of the main kettle. I scan the crowds for Iris, and sure enough, she's at a picnic table with her boyfriend.
"Iris!" I planted, out of breath. "You got to help me save the Squid Sisters!"
