Life In The Promised Land: An Agent 3 x Agent 8 Story

Chapter 5: New Friends and Turf Wars

No One's POV

Quick name review. Nathan = Agent 3, Olivia = Agent 8, Riley = Agent 4

"Finally out of that manhole!" Nathan turned into his inkling form and stretched as he jumped out with energy, with Olivia, Marie, Callie and Riley coming out after him.

"It's been a while since I've been out of Tentakeel Outpost." Marie said. 

"Agreed." Riley said letting out a yawn as she and Nathan stretched.

"So what now?" Callie asked the 4 of us.

"You said Gramps was at.. Off The Hooks apartment studio sleeping?" Marie asked Nathan.

"Yep. We gonna head over there?" Nathan asked.

"I am kinda tired." Riley said as she yawned.

"Same here. I've been meaning to talk to Gramps about something aswell." Marie told Nathan.

Just then, an idea sparked into Nathan's head. "How about me and Olivia go do some Turf Wars! We both need some practice and it'd be nice for her to try it out." He told everyone and looked at Olivia.

"Turf Wars?" Olivia asked. "I guess it sounds fun." She responded and walked towards Nathan. 

"We'll meet you two at Marina and Pearls apartment, they should be done with the news soon." Nathan told the 3 of them.

"Alright cya guys later." Riley waved at them as she, Marie and Callie headed off.

Olivia/Agent 8's POV

 "So we gotta get some weapons at Ammo Knights first." Nathan told me as we both started heading for the store.

We entered and looked at some weapons hanging on the walls.

"Wow.. so many new weapons!" Nathan said in awe. "What are these things?" He grabbed a weapon called the Splat Dualies. "Two guns?"

"Ahem. That would be a new weapon prototype I have designed!" A small figure with a helmet told Nathan as we both jumped in surprise.

"No need to surprise us like that!" Nathan sweatdropped. I did the same.

"Sorry there. I'm Sheldon! Owner of Ammo Knights at the Galleria of Inkopolis Square." Sheldon told the two of us. 

"Hey Sheldon!" Nathan told him. "Didn't you used to have a shop back at the Plaza?" Nathan asked him.

"We moved due to an.. infestation of cephalamites." Sheldon sweatdropped and fixed his glasses.

"That must've sucked." Nathan said.

"Meh, it was about time we moved to a fresh new location like the Square." Sheldon said. 

"Any chance we could g-" I was about to ask before Sheldon barged in.

"WOAH WOAH WOAH not so fast, sorry to do this to you 3 and your Octoling friend by you two aren't nearly at the levels of fresh to reach the ranks of those weapons. I suggest the basic Splattershot for you and the Splat Dualies for you." Sheldon grabbed the Dualies and handed them to me.

"Thanks!.." I smiled softly and gave him our coins to pay for our surprisingly inexpensive weapons.

"No problem. Feel free to buy some new weapons once you play some battles." He waved us a goodbye.

We walked out of the store and approached the Deca Tower, where all the Turf Wars were being held for the day.

"Oh krill, we don't have 2 more teammates to play a game!" Nathan facepalmed.
