{ Splatoon } My Colorful Life

Down Below

{????'s POV}
"Agent 420 has returned to the valley. Agent 420, report to your base." A fellow trooper said. I waved and said, "Thanks." I headed to a kettle and hopped inside. Other agents were waiting for me. I always wondered why I'm with the highest ranked fighters. One of the agents, a girl with metallic dark silver tentacles and seaweed headpieces walked over to me. "Well, if it isn't little Orlaith." That's my name, don't wear it out. "Did you complete the mission?" I shakily replied, "Y-Yes, Elite 137." The girl with silver tentacles said, "Just call me Nami, for goodness sakes. You are such an embarrassment to my group!" Two other girls, one with gold tentacles and another with coppery tentacles giggled and nodded, the seaweed decor on their heads dancing in the air. Nami pushed me against a wall. "You are a failure as an Octoling agent! Why did they put a baby like you with us?!" You heard Nami. I'm not an Inkling or anything else. Octolings are elite octarian fighters, but there are much higher-ranked Octolings. The octarians want to attack Inkopolis, so they sent me to find a good place to attack first. "DJ Octavio asked you to place the tracker, right? Did you do it?" Nami asked. "Yep!" I said, as I held up the tracker monitor, which would show the location of the tracker- "There's no signal," Nami said. I was shocked. "B-but... I put the tracker against the towers... And that was when she saw me, and then I came back-" Nami interrupted me with, "SOMEONE SAW YOU PLACE THE TRACKER!? WHO WAS IT!?" I replied weakly, "Just a young Inkling girl. I swear, she's no problem for us-" Nami slapped me. "She's no problem for us. She IS, however, A PROBLEM FOR YOU! Ugh, you are the worst! Nobody wants you here! Go away!" Her words pierced me like a knife. I ran away crying, not even stopping to look back. Sure, Nami is a jerk sometimes. She's called me an airhead, a nuisance, and a noob before. But she never tried to hurt me. She wants me out, then? Fine! "Congratulations, Nami." I said under my breath. "I'm leaving and never coming back! I'll do fine working on my own without you!"

{Isabelle's POV}
"Isabelle, is it ok if we walk home together?" Nathan asked me. I replied, "Why? This is your stop, it'll be much faster..." Nathan shook his head. "My parents are still angry at me because of last night. I texted them earlier, and they'd be okay with it if I chilled with you for a while." I smiled. "Of course!" Nathan told me this morning that his parents got super angry because he visited me without telling them. My parents are pretty chill when it comes to visiting friends, but Nathan's parents are way more strict than mine. Don't get me wrong, Nathan's mom is real sweet. But Nathan's dad isn't as sweet as his mom. I'd go into all the details, but Nathan is really personal about it and doesn't want me to tell anyone, so yeah. "Should we stop by the park?" I asked him. Nathan cheerily replied, "Of course! Sounds fun!"
When we arrived at the park, it was completely empty. The sun was just starting to set, and the swing set swung back and forth in the breeze. "All right! No kids hogging the swings! Race you there!" Nathan yelled. We both ran to the swing set, and I just so happened to forget how fast Nathan is. He was there before I was even halfway. "I win! Now, we have to kick our shoes off of the swing and whoever's shoe lands the furthest wins!" I grinned. "You're going down!" We played like this for almost an hour. "Alright, Isabelle. I'm beat. Let's go to your place." I was about to agree, but then a piece of paper that literally came out of nowhere fell on my head. I picked it up and unfolded it. It said,

To the foolish orange Inkling who spotted me at the Tower, if you are brave enough to ask of what I am doing in this place, come to Blackbelly Skatepark.

"Should we go?" Nathan asked. I nodded and sent a text to my mom.
Isabelle: Mom, is it ok if we stop by the Skatepark?
Mom: Of course. Just be back soon, alright?
I looked over at Nathan. "Let's go."
