Mysterious squids

Parents and plans

Emperor meets his parents again, and prince want to take him to a turf battle.
———————————————————

Emperor didn't fully trust his brothers friends but they weren't terrible, he didn't talk to much outside of the told the story of when prince was old enough to remember him, slowly but surely he was warming up to his brothers friends.

N-pacer was quite and respectfull, Enging Jr. was energetic and loud, Lace less was sweet and anxious, or at least that's his initial impression he would love to stay and get to know them better but he had friends waiting for him and hunters that wanted his head on a placard and that fact was the main reason he couldn't stay and get to know them better.
"Emperor ?" A feminine voice caught everyone off guard looking behind them at the doorway there stood a older woman and man, the man was dressed in a button down shirt and black plain pants his bright blue eyes were wrinkled showing his age while the woman wore a pale pink sundress her tentacles done up in some form of bow she had red yellow eyes age with time, they were Duke Honozuki and Countess Emperry the parents of Pearl, Emperor and Prince.

"Hi mom, hi dad ." Emperor slinked off the couch to greet his parents it was a little awkward as he hadn't seen them in 4 years, Countess nearly tackled her son to the ground Emperor only being saved by his tail "Emperor! Oh hunny look at you! Your so big now !" It was true Emperor had grown a lot in the past 4 years, he easily dwarf his mother and father "What on earth are you doing here? Not that we aren't happy to see you son ." Duke joins his wife in the hug, Emp gleefully wrapping his tail around their legs.

But this would probably be the last time he would see them, he could feel his smile falter.

Enging noticed a shift in Emperors smile, it was tiny but he prided himself on noticing the tiny changes. "You good Emp ?" This got everyone's attention his parents let go to see the sad look Emperor now adorned. "This is probably going my last time seeing you...inkfish are getting bolder, it's getting to dangerous for me to stay in the immediate forest, so I'm leaving up to a reserve and nobody is allowed up there ." Emperor tried to keep the smile on his face to no avail.

"Well I'm sure we could talk to someone high up to let us up there ." Countess gave her best solution she loved her children dearly and not being able to hear about let alone see one anymore would destroy her. Emperor shook his head it wasn't just him who was in danger.
"It's not just me mom, you know the rumours my friends could be put in danger and we can't risk it, if anything happened to them I'd never forgive myself ." Emperor sighed his family may have never met his buds but they knew about them, they know that the harpy and werewolf would freak if they saw them up there.

This situation was sad.

Unfortunately,

Enging jr was in the room.

"Hold up, friends? ARE THERE MORE OF YOU ?!?!" Everyone jumped at his outburst, Emperor just kinda started at him.
Probably realizing his mistake in outing his friends.
"I shouldn't have said that ." Emperor slowly moved away from the inkling.
"Hold up, no you don't get to lean away! TELL ME WHAT YOU MEAN !" Jr had leapt over the couch by passing the Emperry siblings parents to grab Emperor by the shoulders shaking him back and forth. "ENGING !" Prince yelled going to grab his idiot of a friend off his brother "Your gonna give him brain damage !" Laceless went to help up Emperor who fallen down when prince had pushed Jr off of him.

Duke had grabbed the back if Enging's coat lifting him up like a scruffed kitten, Jr giving a small anxious chuckle at the older man.
Emperor looked around at the chaos Enging being scolded by his father and brother, Pearl and his mother looking like their about to jump him, and N-pacer and Laceless just looking fed up with this situation, it was all so homey something Emperor was not supposed to have it wasn't meant for him no matter how badly he wanted it.
"So about your friends ?"
Jr asked getting looks of disbelief from practically everyone
"WHAT?? I wanna know !" Jr defended himself before getting dropped on his butt by Duke, Emp figured that he could tell he was already in to deep and no doubt his friends would have done the same.

"A werewolf and a harpy, they live in the woods with me, and that's all you get to know." Emperor smiled crossing his arms Enging shrugged getting off of the ground.
"Okay that's good enough for me !"
Prince sighed at his friend, now that his parents were home it was time to put his plan into action of course they might need some convincing first.

"Hey mom? Do we still have the wheelchair from when dad broke his leg ?"
