"You..."

Calliope looked up at the Nitro Blade user, who had chained her up in powerful ice.

"Yes, me. I've destroyed your precious little home, just like how YOU destroyed INKOPOLIS."

Calliope went through ideas in her head.

"You want to flee far away? Go ahead. I'll find you when more Skylings come and invade next time. Call for backup? They'll die trying. Escape here and now? You'll be killed on the SPOT. Syringe me? I've trained in squid form as well."

Well. This one had it all covered.

"Now...what to do with you...."

"Free me!"

"After all that you've done? Ah, I don't think so....I've already killed one of your prized assassins, hm. Maybe I'll kill the other one, in front of you. They can't fly with one wing, after all." The blade user said, staring Calliope down.

"GO AHEAD! I DON'T CARE!"

She would NOT let this lesser cephalopod control her.

"Ah I know, why don't I give you a taste of your own medicine?"

"What do you-"

And with that, she was thrown into the fixing room.

Except this one was different.

She closed her eyes and ears, despite knowing it was all fake. However, screams still pierced her ears. Louder ones than usual.

Familiar ones.

"You want to know what those sounds are? They're your own subjects. Not that you care of course, but I've killed them so it really doesn't matter."

Calliope froze. No, she couldn't-

"Psh. Like you can prove it."

"I can. Open your eyes and see."

Calliope hesitated, before slowly doing so.

In front of her were videos taken from different angles of the blade user stabbing her Skylings and freezing their wings, then proceeding to rip the wings off with their bare hands.

"If you won't answer to the screams, you'll meet the same fate, I suppose..." the blade user said calmly.

However, Calliope wasn't about to go down easily.

"As IF! You wouldn't be able to land a single hit on me!"

The screams still continued, making her a little uncomfortable.

"Would you like to prove it?"

"Yes."

She was taken out of the room, still bound by chains, and into the throne room.

"You'll have to free me first."

The blade user thought.

"Hmm...like how you should've stayed put after finally being defeated after 1,000 years of winning? Like how you darted people in inkopolis to make them weaker? Like how you can fly? Yeah no, I don't think so."

They rushed forward, and Calliope was ready to dodge as soon as they tried to stab, anywhere at all.

But they disappeared.

Calliope didn't have time to react.

And she was stabbed in the heart from behind. She couldn't move. Ice crawled up her wings, and soon they had become fully encased. The blade user sliced them both off with a single slash of the sword.

"Finally. Payback for the damage you've done."

She slumped to the ground, eyes blank but open with fear.

The blade user took her crown and put it on their head.

They sat down on the throne.

"From now on this place is going to be ruled by me. Any skyling trying to wreck inkopolis is going to be killed by my hand."

They opened a book, and wrote down Calliope's name down by Cloud's. The other page contained lesser Skylings they had killed.

"Long live the ice dynasty."
