World Of Ink (A Splatoon Story)

Splatfest!

"Yo kids! Guess what time it is?" Lauren screamed through out the hall. I poked my head outside the door. "Keep it down, will ya? It's what, like 5:20, and people are trying to sleep!" "Today's Splatfest!" Soon, everyone woke up, and you were able to hear everyone's footsteps running towards the door. "Splatfest!" Everyone screamed out, still in their pajamas from when they WERE asleep. Lavender slowly walked out her door to check out what all the screaming and yelling was about at 5 am! "Uh what are all of you guys doing up so late?" Lavender yawned. We all turned to her, smiling big. "Splatfest!" "What's splatfest?" Everyone stared at her. "Uh Kitty,
you explain before someone gets yelled at." Lauren sighed. I turned to Lavender. "Basically, a splatfest is when you vote between two teams, and battle it out late at night, while enjoying half prices, quality music, and all of this under the stars!" "Plus, we're neon and our ink has SPARKLES!" Maya added on, looking happier than ever. "Well, since you've never did a splatfest, how about we go pick a team!" Everyone agreed with me and we all agreed to head down to the plaza at 6:30, still early and not to crowded! When everyone was finally ready, we could already hear the sounds of the tv outside the wall of our apartment walls saying what the splatfest is. Everyone started rushing out the door, running towards the lobby. "And this months splatfest is-" Everyone leaned in a little closer, as we were just now getting into the lobby, out of breath as you could imagine. We turned to the TV. The TV turned to cake vs ice cream "Would you prefer cake or ice cream?" Pearl cheered. "This is so easy, it'll be a cake walk! Everyone knows cakes the best!" "Really now, who wouldn't have ice cream over cake? I mean you could get ice cream just about anywhere , really!" "Well pick a side at the terminal, are you as delusional as Marina, or are you said like me?" Pearl smiled "Don't get cooked, stay off the hook!" Both of them laughed as the TV turned off. Everyone was already picking their team. I spot Olive in in the crowd, and waved over to her.Olive walk over "Hey, what team are you guys on? I'm on ice cream!". Lauren smile turned to a frown. "Ice cream! Seriously? Cake is so much better!" "Uhhh ima have to go with Olive, ice cream is better." Maya sighed walking next to Olive. "Yeah I agree." Lavender also turning to Olives side. "Ugh, Kitty are you on my side?" Lauren turned towards me. "Well, I'm more of an ice cream cake kinda girl myself, but what category did that fall in?" "How about dessert!" Maya groaned, dragging me towards her. Lauren pulled out her phone. "Actually, it's cake! Just looked it up!" Lauren said shoving her phone in my face. "O k then, I guess I'm team cake." Maya shrugged and we called 8 over, since he was the next person in the crowd we noticed. "Hey 8, what team are you on?" Lavender yelled out. "Uhh dose he even know what it is?" I whispered towards the group. Everyone thought for a bit as a moment of silence was broken when he pulled out a blue shirt with Ice cream on it. "Probably did it for the color." Olive sighed. "May the best team win!" I said holding my hand out. "Game on!" We both shook hands and waited till midnight by training in the back arena. After what seemed like forever, the music started to play. We all rushed to the lobby to see the whole lobby lit up with color! And a giant stage up next to the TV! "Don't get cooked, stay off the hook!" Both Pearl and Marina cheered, as the show was finally starting! We watch as everyone's ink colored turn to either a sparkly pink or blue, and everyone started to cheer. Me and Lauren looked at each other, and dashed towards the turf arena. As soon as we were in a match, we already had our weapons ready (Lauren with the duelies and myself with the roller) The round began, and we instantly started inking everything. We thought we were doing great, but just as we painted spawn. We realized that the other team had not only inked red, but the team was none other than Lavender, Maya, Olive, and Sniper. "As much as I would give mercy, it's splatfest, and I wanna win! You'd understand right?" Sniper laughed chocking his head. I didn't hear a word he said though, but I had a job to do. Ink the turf! Maya looked at me and aimed her gun at me. "Don't even try, Kitty." Lauren already ran away to try to sneak to turf, so it was just me. "Welp sorry Kitty but GG." She said as she aimed the blaster at me. A super jump circle formed around me, and Misty came in splashdowning, splatting all the opponents. "Well, what are you waiting for, go go go!" She commanded. I swam past and started to roll my way throughout the ink. In front of me stood a scared looking Lavender with an N-Zap, in her hands. "U-uh Hey Ashy, ummm whaz-up?" She laughed nervously. I face plamed and rolled around her. Splating her would only waste time. In the distance you could see Maya and Sniper both runners towards us. I got my special up and ran into their base, quickly splashdown, and then shot with the blaster. I watched as Maya flopped me and I faced plamed. "Really bruh." I looked at the map as I waited to respawn. It looked like Lauren and Misty did a good job with the turf, almost all of it was pink! I super jumped over to the other guy on our team. Although as soon as I got down, he was wommying with Olive. Not a fan since it was a splatfest but whatever. Now or Never began to play, (1 min left.) and things started to go fast. No one cared about killing as much as painting now. The timer tick down as we rushed to paint whatever we could. "Think fast!" Maya's voice came behind me, as I turned to see her blast ink right at my face. The game was over. They won by 1. We played turf for hours, winning and losing back and forth, until we needed a break. "Well GG everyone! You guys are pretty good, plus you pick up a good fight!" Misty came out of the arena saying, putting her bag over her shoulder. 8 Smiled and shook Misty's hand as well as mine and Lauren's, as a sign of saying good game. We learned that 8's language was way different than ours, so we learned to just guess what he's saying, by the actions that he did. We all called it a night, and waved goodbye as we left to head back to the apartment.
