An Aspiring Color (splatoon fan story)

The escapee of Octo Valley.

Vian woke up screaming, drenched in a cold sweat with his clothes plastered to his shivering frame he he had had a Nightmare again, he didn't know why, but they had come back last year, and they decided to stick around this time. He slid out of bed and limped stiffly to the bathroom, he turned the water to hot and peeled off his clothes he tiptoed gingerly into the shower and stepped under the steaming ink spray as he scrubs himself clean of sweat, after he dries off he puts on a fresh dark grey polo pulls on his leggings, slips into his leather boots  and lastly pops 

out his contacts and pushes his glasses onto his nose, as he heads out the door the brisk air greets him with a nip he huffs onto his hands and rubs his nose as he walks he buys an apple from a street cart and advances to the Wall, in theory  the Wall had been built to keep the Octolings in and The Inklings out, however there had been several televised executions of Inkling perpetrators so it was common knowledge that there were several breaks and holes in the gargantuan barricade. Vian had spent over a month mapping such gaps and the fastest way to get there from his house. He was planning an escape, and today his plan came to (hopeful) fruition!

He snuck onto the empty main road, and dived into the bushes seconds before an Octarian Enforcer turned the corner. The last two Octolings who attempted this were made into personal brainwashed slaves for their general in high command: DJ Octavio, his own personal toys to carry out his will, Vian navigated the bushes until he made his way to a triangular crack in the large stone wall he slipped his legs into it and shimmied backward through the wall the second his head cleared the wall he bolted through the surrounding forest altering his course every time he ran the wrong way, he was navigating with a stolen military map. He was desperately running to inkopolis, to his one hope, his freedom.

As he began to see a distant illuminated skyline he ran faster dawn was just breaking when he reached the fence, he dove through it, transforming into his octopus form halfway through, As he sat up he saw all the stores open one by one, starting with crusty Sean's and ending with Grizzco industries, he bought a Seanwitch and a speed boost grape, then he ran over to the 

Battle Tower and booked himself a lobby, as he waited for his battle to start he got out his weapon the Custom E-liter 1k Scope with a Fizzy bomb and Booyah bomb kit, he was proud of this kit because he designed it himself. He met with his three random teammates and they Super-Jumped to Arowanna Mall the mall was just closing down so the two teams, Pink vs Blue with Vian on pink, and a team of Inklings with an octoling all wearing Identical clothes, all of them wore beanies with a loose hoodie and a pair of blue slip-ons.

As his team was gearing up for battle Vian studied the map and immediately located several optimal sniping points and mapped them out in his head "3...2...1... GO!" Judd Growled, Vian ran to the Nearest high point as his teammates went straight to mid and inked all available ground on their way there, Vian saw a blue teammate, the Octoling, rolling toward mid and Splatted her, then he noticed him, clearly the leader of the blue team charging toward him with an octobrush and Stopping suddenly, he drew a heart on the ground and started squidbagging, Vian had read about this! A real squid party! He panicked forgetting what to do and he fell from 

his vantage point, the boy caught him moments before he hit the water and smiled, Vian Blushed and looked away, embarrassed and  hopped out of his arms, the boy then set his brush and zipped away, Vian looked around, confused until he saw her the octoling from before looking down on him cockily, she jumped down to him and splatted him, It was a trap! He realized they had planned to kill him all along! He swam for his vantage point and managed to take out two of the other blue teammates, another Octoling girl he hadn't noticed before with long middle parted hair , and an inkling girl with two bowed braids down her back. He sniped 

the octoling that had killed him, and his special reached full charge and he activated it, instantly surrounded by ink and forming a ball of ink above him, he yelled "BOOYAH!!!" as loud as he coul and all of his teammates returned the phrase, then he threw the glowing ink ball and it exploded in a beautiful spiral dome destroying the other teams hold on the middle and killing the two Inklings and allowing his team to pass through, he long-armed a Fizzy bomb into the enemy base and his team advanced to claim the turf, once the time expired they all Super-Jumped to a small room off of the map that had both Judd and Little Judd, and the results were announced, Pink Team Wins!!!

Vian received a ludicrous amount of cash, and he Immediatley Jumped to Flounder heights, he entered the lobby and asked if any apartments were available, the Inkling Girl working behind the counter replied that yes, they had a two room apartment open at the moment, but it was also being checked out by another newbie, Vian rushed up the stairs to see the apartment, He didn't have enough money for a Two-Roomer! 

The other boy was just coming around the corner and Vian ran face first into him, as he rubbed his jaw, the boy groaned and rubbed his nose, "wait a second!" Vian yelled "you're that kid from earlier, you lead me into a trap!" "Yeah, sorry about that, Harber insisted that we get you out of your post after the first time you sniped them." "Harber?" Vian asked, "Oh they were the Octoling with the dualies,"replied the boy, "anyways what are you doing here?" Vian asked, "I'm thinking about buying a two room apartment so I have room for visitors." Replied the boy, 

"Cool." Said Vian and as he said goodbye to the boy he turned around and headed back downstairs, out the door and into the neighboring alley, he definitely didn't have enough money for new Albacore hotel, so this was what he had to make due with, he balled up behind a dumpster and wrapped himself tightly in his jacket, as he waited for sleep to come he heard a familiar voice call out "Hi Again! What are you doing down there?"  Ian looked up and saw the same boy and yelled "I'm trying to Sleep!" "Oh, are you homeless? Didja need a place to stay?" The boy asked"No" replied Vian harshly, "Jeeze"replied the boy "Just trying to be nice!" "I'm good!" Yelled Vian, "Now go away!" The boy went away and Vian slowly drifted into a cold sleep
