"Callie," Eight choked, "I can't breath!"

"Your a octoling, you don't breath" Callie said.

"I think what there trying to say is, 'get off!'" Pearl shoved off Callie.

"Pearlie! We have to go! It's time for the news!" Marina said looking at her phone.

"Eh? But it's Friday" Pearl said confused.

"Jellie said that there's a announcement to be made," Marina laughed., "C'mon don't want to be late!" Pearl sighed.

"why don't ya watch it on the TV?" Marie turned on the TV to see that Pearl and Marina were live.


Pearl:

"The Splatocalypse is upon us!"

Marina:
"AHHHHHHHHH! It's the final Splatfest! And it's worldwide!"

Pearl:

"What kind of world do you wanna live in? A world of chaos? Or a world of order?"

Pearl:
"The Splatfest gods really pulled out all the stops with this one!"


Marina:
"That's for sure. Though who would ever wanna live in a world of chaos?"


Pearl:

"Um, ME?! With chaos, you never know what'll happen next, which is AWESOME!"

Marina:
"But think about it, Pearl! The world might fall apart! WE might fall apart."Marina:
"There has to be balance in the world in order to prepare for the future!"




Pearl:
"'Rina, do you remember why we started Off The Hook in the first place?"

Pearl:
"We were sick of hearing the same stale top-20 songs on repeat EVERY DAY."

Pearl:
"We promised we'd never stop shaking things up. That we'd never conform."


Marina:
"Yeah, but Pearl... Remember what YOU said when we first got together?"Marina:
"You said that our ink colors aren't special on their own."





Marina:
"That they don't become special until you mix them together to create new colors."Marina:
"And that gave me hope during a dark time in my life."Marina:
"Off the Hook means everything to me! It's all I have in this world..."




Pearl:
"OK. OK. No need to get all dramatic."

Pearl:
"You have WAAAY more going for you than just Off The Hook."

Pearl:
"For one, the fans like you more than they like me. I've seen the internet."

Pearl:
"And all the other DJs worship you. Plus Eight and Cap'n Whatshisface."

Pearl:
"Aren't they part of your world too?"

Marina:
"That's exactly the point though!"Marina:
"In a world of chaos, I might not ever get to see them again..."

Pearl:
"Ugh... Why you always gotta take everything so seriously?"

Marina:
"Look, I'm not saying nothing should ever change."Marina:
"I just want to protect the balance I've found in my life."Marina:
"Don't you think it's important to create a place we can all feel safe and secure?"







Pearl:
"Not if it means living in a world where everything is predictable."

Pearl:
"It's not like I wanna watch the world burn. I just want it to change. Daily."

Pearl:
"It's not like I wanna see the world burn. I just want it to change. Every day."

Marina:
"Yeah but...that could lead to Off the Hook breaking up!"

Pearl:
"OH MY COD. I'm done talking..."

Pearl:
"I hereby invoke Article 4 of Splatfest Law!"

Pearl:
"That means the losing side has to accept the world the winning side wants."

Marina:
"NO... You wouldn't!"

Pearl:
"I just did."

Marina:
"But if your side wins, what's going to happen to Inkopolis?!"

Pearl:
"I'll figure it out during the Splat fest."




Pearl:
"And this Splatfest is 72 hours long, so you'd better think about it too, 'Rina."

Marina:
"Hooo... Oh wow. OK. I'm gonna start designing my perfect world."Marina:
"You know... I was nervous at first, but this is actually gonna be really fun!"




Pearl:
"That's the spirit! Plus there's gonna be special gear just for this Splatfest!"

Marina:
"And since this is the last one... I'm designing an EXTRA special stage."

Pearl:
"...So there it is. Go vote for your side, and play like the world depends on it!"


Marina/Pearl:

Don't get cooked stay Off the Hook!

"well I certainly wasn't expecting that" Four said.

"Capn't whatshisface? Gramps do they know you?" Callie asked.

"I'm choosing order for sure!" Marie said.

"Nuh-uh! Chaos!" Callie said jumping around.

"Yeah Marie! Chaos! Chaos CHAOS!" Fours shouted jumping with Callie.

"I'm choosing order" Eight whispered trying to get away from the chaos.

"yeah, with order for sure!" Craig said.

"Dedf1sh what side are you going to pick?" Eight said putting her on the spot. Four and Callie stopped jumping and looked at her.

"Yeah, what side are you picking?"

Chaos or Order, the choice that could decide the fate of the world.
