The Legacy Of Humanity - A Splatoon Fanfiction

Final Side - After Stories

Authors Notes: These 2 stories were made from some ideas pitched to me. The second story was mostly co-written with wattpad user ZACHSMITHYAY. He wrote the base story, while I edited and added the intro/end, as well as the dialogue. Though, I did have to drop some. I also tried something different with the language barrier. Sorry about this taking longer than it should have. Blame Walmart for not holding up their promise of delivering my switch on launch. After all, having a console release on my birthday was totally not half the reason I bought it day one in the first place. So what did we learn? Never buy from Walmart unless you literally have no choice. Rant over.

1 – Awakening

It had been a few days since The Chaos had been stopped. A new age has begun for both human kind, and the Oceanics. For the people of Eden, however, there was still work to be done. For today, the humans and a number of volunteer Oceanics, were evacuating the 400 survivors from the underwater Technodyne facility.

"It's a good thing Marco and Hiragi got the other mini sub working," Drake said, as his team walked down the metal hallways. "Otherwise, this would be taking a lot longer.

"Don't forget the other two mini subs that we liberated from The Chaos. But even with four, this is still taking quite a lot longer than we thought," Brandon responded, and they reached the large room that housed the legion of cryopods.

"I just wish we still had the Akula sub," Reggie said.

"Not like that huge thing would fit in the docking lock," Takeshi added.

"Wait, what? Takeshi made a reasonable observation?" Matt said, giving him a stunned look.

Several technicians and security officers walked around the room, as each functioning cryopod was opened, other people escorted the cryo humans away. Several submarines were parked at the entrance of the base. Besides the humans and Drakes team, there were also a few other Inklings and Octolings there that had offered to help. Most of them had fought against The Chaos, and were here to return the favor.

"I honestly didn't expect there to be so many kids and younger people. In fact, I would have thought them to mostly be scientists and rich people," Reggie said. While there were many Technodyne scientists and workers in the pods, there were also a lot of civilians from different classes and backgrounds. Some of the people inside of them seemed to make up entire families.

"I'm just glad we're almost done. This has been almost as tiring as that battle, despite being bored out of my mind," Matt complained.

"It wouldn't be so bad, if they were using the final version of the pods," Justin chimed in. "Honestly, so many of these people are incredibly weak." He had been working with nurse Rotama to stabilize the people coming out of cryosleep. As they finished with the current batch, he and some of the technicians started opening the last of the cryopods, while Drake's team stood guard.

One functioning cryopod contained a boy, probably somewhere around 12, that had a backpack with him. Justin lifted him from the pod, and laid him on a stretcher. Then he laid a blanket on him, before moving him away to the other side of the room. He was still peacefully sleeping. Levin, who was one of the Inklings that volunteered to help, took the backpack and opened it to check for anything the Drake's team should be aware of. Inside was some family pictures and other possessions. "Huh? The heck is this?" Levin said. Inside the backpack, there was also what looked like a video game console. It was a handheld that had two controllers on the sides, one red, one blue. "Is this a game player? I'm so gonna check this out." Frost and Bass came over to see what the fuss was about.

"Levin, quit screwing around! We still have more humans coming out!" Shara said. Levin quickly put the game player back in the backpack. Meanwhile, the boy began to open his eyes. He was in a bed of sorts, and could hear talking. He looked over at his side, and saw other sleeping people on stretchers, including his mom and dad. Shocked, he then looked forward, while making sure he still looked like he was sleeping. From above his knees, he could see humans, but what else he saw frightened him.
