Splatoon Ultra-Kill

Reckoning at Dawn: Redemption and Retribution

Three in the morning, I'm at my wits' end, after all the killing and killing, I even wonder if Mr. Grizzco is in this building.

I pace through the corridors, sweaty and blood-red.

Suddenly, I feel someone behind me. I instinctively pull out my rifle. But a sack is placed over my head, and I black out. I wake up in a dark room. I stand up and search the room for weapons. I come across an Inkling around my age.

"Who are you and what do you want from me?" I ask her.

"Did Mr. Grizzco take away what you loved too? Did you lose your friends too?"

"Yes, and I was about to kill him if you hadn't come to interrupt me."

"Well, I'm on your team. I'm Naomi."

"Okay, that's good, but do you know how to use a weapon?" She looks at me bewildered.

"Well, yes, do you think I'm a beginner?"

"By the way, where are we?" I ask her.

"We're still in Grizzco's building, but higher up, right above his office."

I can't believe it, an ally, and I'm above my target.

She looks at me, and I reveal my plan to her.

She has some gasoline, so we're going to set his office on fire, and if he survives, we'll finish him off together.

Then she takes off her jacket, showing me an explosive belt she has strapped on.

I take it from her and put it on myself. No extra sacrifices, I'm tired of seeing people die, and I won't let anyone die, well... maybe.

We descend the stairs and stand in front of Mr. Grizzco's office.

I take a deep breath and prepare myself.

We pour the gasoline in the corridor and also under his door. The gasoline is in his office.

I light the match, soon, Mina, and the others will be avenged. I drop the match, and the fire spreads quickly. Naomi and I break down the door. And I say,

"Mr. Grizzco, you're in for a rough time," I say as I cock my rifle.

His office is on fire. Then I see a wall of flames, and it reminds me that only I will kill Mr. Grizzco and no one else, my friends are dead, and I don't give a damn about the others, no one will steal my revenge. I push Naomi into the wall of flames, and she becomes a human torch, struggling and screaming, then she stops moving. My friends, my vengeance, no disruptive elements, just like hunting the other day.

I see Grizzco's silhouette, this thing is nothing like an Inkling, then I see the sun rise.

And I know I'll soon see my friends again. I roughly see Mr. Grizzco's silhouette.

I charge at him, pushing him out the window, I fall with him, the ground gives way and gives way to the void, I become a human torch, and I fall from 500 meters high (it's the tallest tower). The fresh air beats against me as I fall pressed against him, and I whisper in Grizzco's ear,

"For my friends, bastard."

And I detonate the explosive belt.

I just feel warmth, and then nothing, emptiness.

The journalists see the explosion, it destroys the skyscraper.

Then the emptiness disappears, I open my eyes in a room, Inkling regeneration, huh?

And then in front of me, a man who claims to be a lawyer tells me that we have to prepare a defense for my trial. The person I killed was an Inkling tasked with being Grizzco's double.

His body is really dead.

Then we talk about my defense, then he leaves, I fall asleep, at night I wake up, and I see them all, my friends, my only friends.

I look at the tube keeping me alive. And I cut it with a sharp blow.

I say,

"We need to have another Squid Sisters concert..."

Then a black veil covers me, and I'm in the other world.

My... friends...

Flash info, Mr. Grizzco's tower destroyed, 2000 dead including Grizzco himself, the burned body of a young girl found in the rubble and 1999 other deaths.
