{Isabelle's POV}
"I'm coming, guys! Sheesh!" I said as I poked my head through my Splatfest tee. I ran downstairs to greet my friends. "Well? How do I look?" Nathan rolled his eyes. "Beautiful. Let's go." I waved goodbye to my family, as I ran off with my friends to go party.
"Here we are!" I couldn't believe how beautiful this one was. Callie and Marie, AKA The Squid Sisters, were on trucks singing and dancing. Inklings were dancing, talking, and celebrating. I always forget how pretty Inkopolis Plaza is at night. "Hey, guys! Let's go! Turf wars are this way!" Nathan yelled. The three of us replied, "YEAH! ROLLER COASTER PRIDE!" I yelled as we ran off toward Inkopolis Tower. Weirdly, it felt like there were eyes on me. Eh, probably nothing too concerning.{Nathan's POV}
As our team rose from the Acid Green starting point, our eyes were locked on our target. Team Water Slide was on the other side of Walleye Warehouse. I looked over at my team. They were as determined as I was, that's for sure.
"3...2...1...GO!!!!"
We had a civilized battle plan mapped out earlier. Isabelle would cover as much turf as possible, Max would go for enemies, Ellie would try to secure the choke points, and I would stay back at base to make sure no one inks our base. Isabelle immediately ran off to cover turf. Ellie hid around the corners and sniped, and Max was just... Rollin', I guess. At one point, I felt eyes on me. I immediately turned toward it and shot, but there wasn't anyone there. Guess I'm just being paranoid."3...2...1... STOP!"
Geez, that was the longest turf war of my life. Almost no one came to base, and anyone who did was easily taken out by me. Nevertheless, we won. "Alright! We won!" Isabelle cheered. Ellie said, "Good job, everyone! The plan worked!" Max grinned. "Thanks to my rolling expertise..." Isabelle interrupted him with, "Hey! The fireworks are starting! Let's go!"So far, the fireworks were excellent. Bursts of Purple and Green glittered in the sky. Inklings were dancing and laughing and cheering. Ellie and Max were chatting, and Isabelle was absolutely enticed by the fireworks, seeing as how she had a good view of them while up on her dad's shoulders. I sighed. As I was sighing, a girl walked up to me and put her hand on my shoulder. She was wearing a black hoodie that covered her eyes and tentacles, a knee-length gray skirt, and black boots. She smiled and grabbed my hand. She proceeded to pull me away and dance with me. She felt so... Familiar. I guess one of the stars saw us, because they called couples dance. The girl kept happily dancing, and then grabbed my hand and pulled me away. We ended up running behind a building. And this girl could run. So fast, in fact, Orlaith's monitor almost slipped out of my pocket. I had to hold it in place. The girl pressed me against the back of the building, and a grin crept across her face. She then pulled out a strangely familiar gun and pointed it at my chest. "What are you-" My question was cut off when she shot me in the chest. I fell onto my knees and collided with the ground. She reached for my limp body and proceeded to pull out Orlaith's monitor. "Thank you," she said sweetly. As my surroundings faded to black, her black hood slipped off and revealed her tentacles. Her red tentacles. Before I could say her name, my head went fuzzy as my consciousness slipped away.
