Sheldon : we will continue our mission tomorrow,let's have some rest for now

Captain cuttlefish : so,tomorrow we go and strike ?

Sheldon : yes,but we will also look out for something else

Unknown figure : which is ?

Sheldon : the other agents

Captain cuttlefish : why tho?

Sheldon : they might have taken care of him earlier than us

Unknown figure : what do you suggest?Go after Akuma before they do ?

Sheldon : we will discuss about this tomorrow

Unknown figure : ehhh...fine

-meanwhile with Izumi and Akio,next morning-

It was 8 am in the morning,Izumi and Akio were sitting on the couch.They both were having an awkward phase

Izumi :....

Akio :...soo...Uhmm

Izumi : when are we ever getting him back?

Akio : that is the problem,maybe never

Izumi : ..heh..today is a special day too...my birthday.

Akio : uhhhh...I guess happy birthday ?

Izumi : there is nothing to celebrate without him

Akio : I know,I'm not much of a help in this situation.This is the only way tho

Izumi :....I'm heading out

Akio : where ?

Izumi : to his grave

Akio: alright..

Izumi left the house,walking on a path towards Yakeru's "grave".

Izumi reached and sat down beside his grave,looking at the sky.She slowly leaned towards his tombstone and watched the clouds pass by

Izumi :...hey..until now we still can't find you..

Izumi stayed silent,looking down onto the floor.

She then looks up,seeing someone at the distance.It was the same inkling,Teal eyes,a teal goo and similar appearance to Yakeru.

She stood up and walked up to him,but he vanishes into thin air once again.

Izumi :....

She went back to sit down next to his tombstone and relax for a bit.

After spending quite some time beside his grave,she decided to head home and spend some time alone.

Upon her arrival back to the house,Akio looked at Izumi.

Akio : we have to look around Inkopolis to find something suspicious

Izumi : now ?

Akio : yes

Izumi :*sighs* fine

Izumi quickly changed in her room and joined Akio in patrolling

They started patrolling the rooftops,then the outskirts of Inkopolis.

Akio : wait

Akio stops Izumi for a while,they are currently near a forest.

Akio : there is a trail of ink leading into the forest

Izumi looks at the trail of ink and recognises this ink,it was blue ink.

Izumi :...he is here

Meanwhile,there was someone behind them.It was the unknown figure,he followed them all the way to the forest.

Unknown figure ( through mic ): Oi Sheldon,are they even on the right track ?

Sheldon (through mic ) : should be.

Unknown figure (through mic ) : should I interfere ?

Sheldon (through mic ) : just follow them but do not interfere.

Unknown figure (through mic ): got it

Izumi and Akio walks into the forest,following the trail of blue ink.The unknown figure manages to catch up with them.

Akio and Izumi were being led to an open area.Akuma was there,waiting for them to arrive.

Akuma : you have finally reached.

Izumi : where is he ?!

Akuma :...y-you.. won't want to know.

Izumi looks at Akuma in frustration,ready to fire at him.
