Felix's POV
I wake up from a awful night rest, the words Liam told me still ring in my head. I just prefer him choosing someone I know, but I can't control him. I change to my normal clothes and grab my weapon and Ink tank, I start to play the music of the end of Splatfest at Inkopoils Plaza called "Maritime Memory". I felt like I had no worries and I was in clouds resting. The train to a stop and I walk out last as the whole crowd stared at me with my head closing my eyes. Everyone had their eyes wide open at me.
"Are you listening to Callie and Marie's music!?" An inkling asked me.
"Yes and?" I said walking away.
"Callie and Marie are so over through, Pearl and Marina are the new thing!?" Another inkling said.
"I like the four of them. Is that a problem?" I asked them walking near an alley way. I stare at the sky grinning and closing my eyes, but as my music stopped three inkling approached me.
"Can I help you?" I asked them pausing my music.
"Is this the girl that thinks she can beat any team!" A Boy inkling said behind a taller one.
"Her team beat Team Pink, Yellow, Green, and Purple!" The other one said.
"I challenge you to a Turf War....my Team, is Team Blast!" The female inkling challenged me.
"W-Well I'm not the leader of my team but I give my leader a call." I shrugged my shoulders and called Slate.

Hey Felix! Why you calling?

We have a challenger, his Team name is Team Blast.

Alright I'll get Lucas and Rosalina

Ok cya!
I finished and ended the call.
"Alright when they coming?" The leader of the other 3 inkling boys.
"The names Riza..." she said with a smirk on her face.
~10 minutes later~
  "Sorry to keep the wait!" Slate said as he had his Squiffer in his other hand, then Rosalina was holding her N-Zap'89 with both of her hands, Lucas with holding his dualies in each hand.
  "Alright let's get going" Riza said as she flipped her tentacles and turned to Deco Tower.
  "She sure seems sassy." Rosalina whispered to me. I giggled a bit but not that she can hear. We entered in to Deco Tower and the map was Blackbelly Skatepark, as we spawned I felt a tight knot in my stomach. It felt so painful but I tried to ignore it, I started to fire my ink in the air getting some turf. But the corner of my eye I see one of the opposite team opponents aiming for me, but soon as I try to move Slate splats him behind his back.
  "Thanks!" I shout to him and start to ink the floor again. Rosalina super jumps back to are base and starts to use her Tenta Missiles. She targets two opponents and starts to super jump to me and starts to ink Turf once again.
   "Gah!! Their too strong!" One of the inkling day as they are having trouble trying to splat Lucas. I splatted one of the inkling boys and start to head to there base but as I do I stop....my stomach is killing me. I drop my weapon and I start to hold my stomach and the pain hits me like I'm being splatted over and over again. Riza was about to splat me but instead comes over to me with no harm.
  "Umm are you ok?" She asked me as a tear slides down my face.
    "My stomach is killing me, I can't fight." I say trying to stand up and I leave my weapon, I walk back to my base with my weapon and stay at the spawn point. Riza didn't splat after that incident, after 2 minutes we won the match. I felt so bad for the others that I couldn't participate, as I get off the train the pain hits me again. I entered my apartment and go to the bathroom, I start to puke out my ink color but it seems to have cookie dough in it from the ice cream. I grab the container and see that it was due last month! I slap my face in embarrassment. I can't believe I ate expired food! I quickly text Brandon if he can come and he said yes.
  "I heard you needed me?" He said with a confused look.
  "Yeah I'm sick....remember I ate that ice cream....yeah it was expired." I said grabbing a bucket from my cabinet. I look at Brandon's face and he was covering his mouth.
   "BAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!" He burst into laughter. I start to get all flustered and slap his arm as I get all flusterly.
    "S-Shut up!" I yell at him then covering my mouth and puking out my ink again. As Brandon looked he was shocked.
   "That's not normal, you usually don't throw up when you eat expired food. Maybe I should take you to a doctor." He offered.
   "Alright I guess..."
Brandon's POV
I pull up my car at Felix's apartment complex. I pick her up as she looks tired as ever. I put her in my passenger seat in my car, and start to drive to the doctor's office. She starts to moan in pain as I drive faster so she can feel better soon.
   "Sorry Felix." I say as I speed ahead.
"It's ok I'm just being a baby that's all." She says and turns the other way closing her eyes. I feel so bad for her...
    "I'm just in a bit of pain" she adds as she looks the other way.
~15 minutes later~
We arrived at the doctor's office and we check her in, we had to wait for 30 minutes until the doctor called her name.
  "Felix." The Female octoling said as she opened the door to the waiting room. We walked into a room and she sat down on the table. I sat in a chair and the doctor held a computer.
   "So what's the matter Felix?" She asked her.
"Well during a Turf War today I had some pain in my stomach, I thought it was the expired ice cream I ate but then when I got home I started to puke." She said as she held her stomach.
  "I see, did this just start or has it happened before."
  "It's just started." She shattered a tear down her face.
     "Alright I'll give you the medicine you need, she just has been crying more than usual that's the thing. You can throw up if you cry more often." She points out and walks out of the room.
  "Is it because of Liam?" I asked her.
"Y-Yes..." she says looking down harshly. I got her medicine and I headed to her apartment.
  "Here just take one tablespoon of it." I tell her and gave her the spoon of medicine.
   "Thanks." She said and grabbed it and drank it down.
"Eww.." she stuck her tongue out of disgust. I start to laugh a little bit of her disgusted face. I stayed at her apartment just in case if there was any problems.
  ~The next day~
Felix's POV
I wake up and see Brandon sleeping on my couch, I laugh a bit and got some waffle mix for myself. I felt better than before, Brandon woke up and saw me making waffles.
   "You serious!" He says as I make the waffles.
"Ha! Looks like you have to make your own breakfast!" I start to laugh a him and I stuck my tongue out to tease him. As I make the waffles Brandon gets a pan out and starts to get some pancake mix for himself.
   "Yum! These smell so good!" I say as I turn the waffle around so it can cook longer. I wait for my waffles to cool down and I put the channel of Off the Hook.
Pearl-"We got a huge announcement to make!!"
  Marina-"Spill it Pearlie!"
Pearl-"Were having are one year Tournament!!!"
Marina-"This is going to be exciting! And I wounded if Brandon from the Pink Team will win again! His 5th year!"
Pearl-"Yeah your right! But this Tournament will start next week! So enter in now!"

Pearl-"Remember Everyone!"
