Chapter 3: off the hook
Tadayoshi wakes up in the middle of a dark room
Voice: Go kill yourself
He turned to see who said that, couldn't see who
Voice: nobody wants to hang out with someone like you
Tadayoshi: quiet
Voice: nobody will love you
Tadayoshi: stop
Voice: go die in hell
Tadayoshi lean down holding his head in anger
Voice: your nothing, but a nobody
Tadayoshi: I SAID SHUT UP!!
Tadayoshi quickly sits upwards, breathing heavily and beginning to realize it was all a dream, he put his hand on his face
Tadayoshi: "ugh, how long has it been, since I had one of those dreams"
Suddenly he began to realize that he is on a bed, and in a room that is not his
Tadayoshi: "wait a minute, where am I, wasn't I sleeping outside"
Suddenly, the door opens quickly
?: are you alright mister
Tadayoshi stared at the person who opens the door, which was one of the off the hook idol, marina
Marina: Oh you're awake
Tadayoshi was still confused about what happened last night
Tadayoshi: did you-
Marina: yes it was me, I just saw you sleep outside, and I felt bad so I and pearlie dragged you to our place for you to sleep
Tadayoshi stares at her
Tadayoshi: alright then, oh and thanks, I'm fine
Marina: no problem, anyway breakfast is waiting downstairs
Marina left downstairs as Tadayoshi watches her leave
Tadayoshi: "mind as well head down too"
He gets up and heads downstairs where pearl and marina are sitting at the table, eating
Pearl: ah, he's wake
Tadayoshi: hello MC princess
Pearl: Wow, you don't call me by my name
Tadayoshi: I give nicknames to people I don't trust
Both pearl and marina look at him
Tadayoshi: what?
Pearl: what do you mean, you don't trust us after we help you
Tadayoshi: I'm thankful that you help me, but I don't trust anyone, even if they are nice to me
Marina: why
Tadayoshi went quiet for a few moments
Tadayoshi: I have my reason
He begins to walk away
Marina: where are you going
Tadayoshi: home
Pearl: welp, it was ni-
Marina: why don't you come and eat with us
Pearl: Marina!
Marina: what you know breakfast is important, right
Tadayoshi: I'm not hungry
Tadayoshi began to find his shoes
Marina: come on, come eat with us
Tadayoshi: no
Marina: why not
Tadayoshi turns at them again
Tadayoshi: well one, I'm not hungry, two if I get caught, by some random fan, people are going to try and kill me and I won't get any alone time, and three, I've got places to be
Tadayoshi finally finds his shoes and puts them on
Tadayoshi: but, thanks for letting me sleep here, I owe you guy one
He leaves out the door leave marina and pearl look at the door
Pearl: see now we don't have to worry about him
Marina looks down
Pearl: what's wrong
Marina: it's just...I've seen him always with that emotionless face all the time, I don't know why but I want to know why and want to help him
Pearl stares at her with a really face
Pearl: you need to be a little meaner sometimes marina

Tadayoshi was on his way to the octo canyons until his phone made a ding noise
He looks at his phone and realizes that "agent 2" text him
Tadayoshi: "how'd she get my number"
Agent 2: are you coming or what
T: yeah, I'm on my way
Agent 2: alright, see you there
Tadayoshi puts away his phone as he continues to walk to the octo canyons

He finally arrives with Marie waiting for him
Marie: morning
Tadayoshi: hey
Marie looks at him
Tadayoshi: what
Marie: you know you're supposed to say morning, not hey
Tadayoshi: It's the same thing
Marie: *sigh* when will you trust me
Tadayoshi: why are you asking that?
Marie: because as your boss, your gonna have to trust me
Tadayoshi: I never said I'm working for you, but somewhere in the future maybe, anyway I'm off
Marie: oh wait
Tadayoshi: what
Marie tosses him an earbud
Tadayoshi: what's this
Marie: I'm going to communicate to you through this, so I know what you are doing
Tadayoshi: ok, now I'm off
Marie: careful
Marie watches as Tadayoshi leaves to the next sector
Marie: When you come back I going to ask you some questions
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
During the mission, Tadayoshi was flying by as usual
Marie: how you doing
Tadayoshi: just making my way downtown
Marie: welp you sound like your doing fine
Marie looks at a camera that focuses on Tadayoshi, which he doesn't know about
He then suddenly stopped in tracks when an ink bomb appeared in front of him
Tadayoshi: oh shit
He jumps out of the way, but still got hit
Marie: Tadayoshi are you alright, answer me!
Tadayoshi looks up and notices two octolings looking at him
Octoling 1: well what do we have here
Octoling 2: welp it's a shame, we've got to put him down
Tadayoshi crawls to get his weapon, but the octoling step on his hand
Tadayoshi: arrhhh
Marie: Tadayoshi!? Tadayoshi!? come on answer me
Octoling 1: not so fast there
The octolings aim their guns at him
Octoling 2: any last words
Tadayoshi then pulls out something in his hand which made the octoling freakout
Tadayoshi: say hi to satan for me
In Marie earbuds, she hears an explosion
Marie: Tadayoshi, come on, please don't be dead
Tadayoshi: ugh Jesus that was close
Marie: Tadayoshi, what happened, are you alright
Tadayoshi stands up
Tadayoshi: yeah I'm fine, I'm just glad I had one of these on me, so don't worry about me, he said as he was holding an ink bomb
Marie let out a breath
Marie: thank god
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
After completing sector 2 and 3, Tadayoshi appears back to Marie
Tadayoshi: hey I back I-
Before he could finish talking, Marie ran to him with a hug
Marie: thank God, your ok, I thought you were going to be killed
Tadayoshi looks at her in concern
Tadayoshi: uh what are you doing?
Marie quickly let's go of him and looks at him
Marie: what do you mean, I was nervous, you were almost killed
Tadayoshi: well first off one if I get killed I can respawn, and two I don't care if I get killed
Marie: how can you not care if your killed, aren't you worry about yourself
Tadayoshi: no
Marie: why
Tadayoshi thought for a moment
Tadayoshi: reasons
Marie looks at him and brings him to a seat
Marie: why not tell me what wrong
Tadayoshi: nothings wrong
Marie: something is wrong, you don't care about squid being
Tadayoshi went quiet for a few moments
Tadayoshi: I'll tell you somewhere isn't the future
Marie: you promise
Tadayoshi: *sigh* I hate promise, but I promise
Both Tadayoshi and Marie gets up and says their goodbyes, as Marie watches him leave
Marie: What are you hiding Tadayoshi...
