-moments later-

Callie : we are her-

Callie looks at Callie,who is having the guilty-face expression

Akio : did you kill that inkling

Callie : UHM,NOOO I HOPE NOT

Marie face palms her hand onto her head

Marie : explain.

Callie : UHHhH I WAS SiTTiNG DOWN ON THe BeNcH WHeN I SENSE THaT SOMeONe WAS COMInG SO I TURNED BACk ANd SAW AN INKlInG WItH BLaCk InK COvERED ON HALf oF THEIR BODY

Marie : and?

Callie : ANd ThE INKlInG WAS CHASING ME SO I FOUND A NEARBY ROLLER ANd USED IT TO SMACK THE INKLInG

Marie :hmm

Izumi : u-uhm,it is kind of uncommon to see black ink.at least not in Inkopolis

Marie : yeah,I haven't seen a black inked inkling in Inkopolis at least after splat fest

Callie : I'm sorry !!!! I didn't mean to splat that inkling !!!!

Suddenly,Marie was hit at the back of her body by someone.That someone was also an inkling,but covered with black ink.

Callie : MARIE

Marie looked back and saw the inkling who attacked her.

Marie : lucky I was ready,I brought my charger.

Marie charges up her shot and sniped the shit out of the inkling.

Callie : WOw MARIE IS THE BeST

Marie : hehe....thanks ?...

Izumi : it look like the black inked inklings are attacking out of no where

Akio : why are they even black coloured in ink anyways ?

Callie : not too sure

Marie : we should let gramps handle the splatted black inked inklings

-back with Marina-

Marina : pearl,why aren't you going with the others ?

Pearl : I wanted to see you speed your hacking things

Marina : I'm almost done,it's just that it keeps saying it has an unknown error.It's as if something is trying to prevent us from getting the location

Pearl : I'm not sure how I can help.HM,do you want some orange juice ?

Marina : sure,thanks Pearlie

Pearl passes Marina the Orange Juice

Pearl : no probs

Marina continues to attempt in hacking the location

A few moments later,Callie the others came to back the HQ.

Marina looks at them

Marina : what happened ?

Marie : there are some black inked inklings attacking out of no where impulsively

Pearl : was it a gang or something ?

Marie : well not really,they were like as if they had no life in them.Like....Zombies ? Or the sanitised

Akio suddenly remembers he stuffed the diary with him

Akio : oh yeahhhh,I have a diary that Yakeru wrote.I found it on his desk before I left

Akio hands Marie the diary and Marie Lay's it on the table infront of them.

"Dear Diary,

????????????

    I feel so weird today,there is this stupid injury that won't recover and it just gets more worse.Other than that,I've been having trouble getting that Teal goo idiot to develop some common sense but in the end he has gotten a bit better.

I keep wondering to myself whether Izumi likes me or not...maybe one day I'll get to spend the whole day with her in a daisy field.Maybe get to see the sunset one more time with her.."

-same thing in Chapter 19 or 20**

Callie : Yakeru obviously has a crush on Izumi

Izumi blushes madly after reading the last part of the diary

Marina : what does "Teal goo idiot " refer to ?

Akio : not sure

Pearl : at the front it says that he has had an injury that got worse and worse

Marie : he hasn't told us that before tho

Izumi : he is always private,he doesn't like to tell us things that has been bothering him

Izumi looks up and sees a figure,it looked like Yakeru.But it was facing at the back from Izumi's perspective

Izumi : Yakeru...I-is that you?

The figure slowly turns around,Izumi widdens her eyes.It wasn't Yakeru,it was someone who looked like Yakeru that had a teal goo,teal eyes and teal as their ink colour.

The figure than vanishes into the air,not coming back.Izumi had a shocked but confused look.

Marie : no one is there,Izumi.

Izumi looks down

Akio : what's wrong,Izumi ?

Izumi : I just saw Yakeru,but the sanitised version of him.

Akio : again?

Izumi : y-yeah...

Izumi covers her eyes with her hands.Akio hugs her and comforts her.

Marie : back on the mission,Marina,pearl,Callie and I will try to find out more by tonight.Agent 4 and 8,you can head home now.It is 5 pm

Izumi : a-alright,bye

Akio : cya

Akio and Izumi left the HQ and headed back home

Inei looks from the distance,staring at them.

1n31 : idiots...Goodluck to Y4k3ru...Perharps these insolents cannot save you afterall
