Right now, Aloha was hiding.

To be specific, hiding from his three housemates. The reason? He somehow shrunk to three inches tall after getting hit by something from behind. It clearly knocked him out, that's what he knew, but he couldn't understand why he shrunk when he woke up! He couldn't help but to hide, until he felt himself getting picked up, making him gasp.

What had Mask done?

He didn't expect the invention he was working on fire out of nowhere while he was fixing it up. He didn't expect it to hit Aloha of all squids. And he didn't think he'd lose sight of Aloha when Army and Skull came back. He needed to find Aloha fast. Carefully looking around he looked behind a shelf, Mask finally found Aloha. Carefully grabbing him, Mask heard a little gasp seeing Aloha struggling a bit from his hand.

"Aloooha, calm down" Mask said, hoping the tiny inkling would calm down. "M-Mask? What the hell happened to me?!" Aloha said, squirming a bit in Mask's hand, Mask sighing. "To be honest, I have no clue whaaat happened, but I'll fix this" Mask replied, just as Skull and Army came to the living room.

"Hey Mask, where is Alo-" Skull started to speak, before noticing their friend a lot smaller than usual. "What happened to him?" Mask could only groan in annoyance, seeing how hard it'll be to explain everything. "It's a loooong story" was his only reply, just as Army said it was time for dinner.

The four of them ate silently, or at least tired to, seeing Aloha's predicament. They had to somehow make a plate for Aloha, which wasn't easy at all, though Aloha didn't seem to mind having the smaller cut up pieces of dinner. Though he couldn't help but to shiver a bit, being looked down upon like that, especially the way Army was looking at him. "So who's going to watch him tonight?" Skull asked, as Army cleared his throat. "I think I should, as I don't trust any of you" Army said, which made the other two mad. "Excuuuuse me?" Mask replied, Skull joining in the fight as Aloha ate silently. Well, he knows they all fight a lot, though maybe he was the one to choose, not them. Pushing a fork off the table, he caught their attention.

"I think I'll stay with Mask tonight."

Dinner went smoother than he expected, Aloha thought as he watched Mask working on something on his desk. He wasn't sure what it was, but it looked important. Though at the same time, Mask absolutely seemed tired. "Hey Mask, why don't you get some sleep already? You look exhausted" Aloha suggested, Mask rolling his eyes. "What if I mooove if I sleep?"

"You don't move much in your sleep Mask. Though you do snore" Aloha trailed off, noticing the look Mask was giving him, "but it's not as loud as Army's!" Aloha quickly added, hoping he didn't anger Mask in any way. Cod he hated being this tiny, making him feel scared like this.

"Plus Army was giving me strange looks. To be honest, it was kinda scaring me" Aloha admitted, Mask agreeing silently. Why was Army looking at him like that anyways? That's a question Mask didn't want to think about right now as he was way too tired.

"I know you Masky. I know you wouldn't do that" Aloha gave him a smile, Mask rolling his eyes. "Drop the 'y' Aloha."

Soon enough, Mask had picked Aloha up by his shirt before putting him inside his pajama pocket beige heading off to his bed. Carefully laying down, Mask decided to try to get some rest, closing his eyes as Aloha watched him.

Mask has really sharp teeth Aloha had thought, a tiny bit worried. He didn't pay too much attention before, so it brought some fear into the tiny inkling.

But at the same time it was kinda nice hearing Mask's heartbeat? Aloha soon yawned, getting comfortable before he slowly fell to slumber.

Mask, on the other hand, was a bit worried as he opened one eye seeing Aloha soundly asleep in his pajama shirt pocket. Well at least Aloha was getting some sleep. It's going to be a long night seeing how much trust Aloha is giving him.

He should get that invention of his fixed soon.
