Splatoon: Why me?

Chapter 18

Just a quick recap because the last chapter was really messed up.
------------------------------------------

"These two young villians have committed unspeakable crimes in our civilization. They are not to be forgiven! THEY MUST BE ELIMINATED!" The commander shouts into a megaphone.
Orae felt unbearable pain not only through her tied hands, but also in her pounding head.
"Alright men! Aim your guns!"
The ten soilders load their much deadlier looking rifles and aimed at both Orae and Melissa's head.
"Steady your arms!"
Orae closed her eyes.

"FIRE!" The commander shouts at the men.
Orae shut her eyes as tight as they would go and expected the worst.

*BANG*

She felt pain seep through her body rapidly and a yelp of pain slipped her mouth.
She felt a  splash of liquid on her head, maybe it was her blood, and maybe she's dead already.
But... She wasn't dead...
Orae opened her eyes slowly to see an inkling standing beside him equipped with a splatter scope, wearing a motorcycle helmet she once saw at the Booyah Base.
Saved by another again...

She then found herself on the floor, ropes loose and covered in purple ink.
'What is in the name of--'
"WHO ARE YOU AND HOW DARE YOU DISTURB A SHOOTING?!" The commander boomed.
The inkling didn't speak. All he did was slowly raise his gun and aim at the commander's head.
Orae was confused about what's happening...
"Don't you dare threaten me or I'll--"
*BANG*
Down went the commander, octarian blood spraying everywhere.
Everyone was shocked to a frozen position, including Orae.

The octolings come back to their senses and start to sorround the guest with loaded octo-shots.
Orae closed her eyes and expected to witness the most painful beating of the century, but instead a scream was heard.
Another octoling exploded to oblivion.

This time it was a girl, wearing the similar helmet but decorated with pink flowers and other typical 7 year old decorations.
She was equipped with the N-Zap, which suits her so perfectly it kind of made Orae jealous.
"What? There's two of them?!" An octoling panics.
"CALL REINFORCEM--" before the octoling finished another figure landed on her with a roller.
Orae smiled as she finally met a familiar face.
"BLUZI!" She shouted running to him and jumping into his arms.
"You had me worried sick!" Bluzi said with watery eyes.
Orae felt at home, even though she was far from home and it was the cold and dark falling civilization.

"Sorry to break your love bubbles, but we gotta get moving!" The female masked girl shouts pointing at the back gates.
Orae turns and looks at them funny.
"Who are you two anyway?" She asked, raising a brow.
The masked girl slowly unmasked herself to reveal the big long strings of pink tentacles on her head.
She smiled and held out a hand,
"Taylor Shoppmutch, pleasure to be of your aid." She said.
(I getting so bad at puns!)
"And this is my friend..." Taylor pauses a moment and looked at him.
"...who preferably doesn't want to be named..."
The masked boy breathed a sigh of relief.

"Why are you helping us?" Bluzi asked.
"We were at the carnival as well, and seeing miss Orae here being captured isn't really our thing. So we equipped ourselves with the best of weapons and came after you!" Taylor explains.
The masked boy nods in approval.
Orae looked at Bluzi with concern.
"Should... Should we trust them?" Orae asked Bluzi half whispering.
"We should...They seem nice enough..."
The two show a faint smile.
"Plus we need all the inklings we can get to get out of here--"
"Wait!" Orae stopped Bluzi from babbling on.
Bluzi looked at Orae.
"What?" He asked.
"We... We..."

Orae took an eyeful of Melissa, who passed out in fear still strapped to the pole.
"We need to end this..." She said taking a deep breath.
"WE NEED TO FREE ALL OF THEM!"
Bluzi snapped his head back to Orae and dropped his jaw down.
"Orae, we can to save one girl... But all of them?" Bluzi sighed. "Can't be done."
"I agree with the agent... It's too dangerous." Taylor says patting Orae's back.
Orae pushed away her hand and started talking again,
"Come on guys! It's not as hard as it seems! There is a control Center controlling all the soiders! If we can free them--"
"Then what? They kill us? Hard to break it to you, but controlled or not octolings will kill." Taylor cut off Orae.
An awkward moment of silence was shared amongst them.

"No... No they won't..." A hurt voice came from behind.
Melissa!
"They never wanted to. Queen Octivia is remixing their heads to set new goals..." She coughed.
Bluzi looked at her uneasily and sighed.
"Please..." Melissa said before passing out again.
Taylor looked at her feet.
Everybody felt sorry for her
"But... How can we possibly break the tower? Most of all how do we sneak in?" Bluzi asked.
"I... I... Think I have enough knowledge of the base to sneak in undetected.... But my memory is fuzzy still..." Orae explained.
"That is the best plan we can possibly come up... Come on." Taylor commanded, waving for them to move forward.
Orae looked at the three and sighed.
"Follow me..." She whispered, sneaking into the massive front door.

'Will  we be able to save the octarians?'
