Saiko: Alright Meggy, remember the plan?

Meggy, who was in her squid form and had her tentacles wrapped around Saiko's arms like a backpack, responded in a very excited tone.

Meggy: Yep! While you are distracting Axol, Morgana will look for the same design he saw in the Palace. Once he does, I'll use the pick the lock using the skills Y/n taught me.

Saiko: And you're sure it was a door, Morgana?

Morgana: I'm positive. Now let's go. If we wait too long the Shadows will notice Y/n and SMG4's presence.

Saiko nods and walks up to the door and tings the door bell. Axol opens the door and smiles as he sees Saiko.

Axol: Ah Saiko, so glad that you finally accepted my proposal. Please, enter.

He steps out of the way and allows Saiko to enter. Once Saiko's in, she takes Meggy off her back and sets her down at the door.

Axol: An Inkling backpack?

Saiko: Oh yeah, isn't it cute?

Axol: It almost looks... lifelike. Such detail and craftsmanship. Anyway, come. I have everything set up already.

The two go down the hall and enter a room. Once Meggy knew she was in the clear, she turned back into her humanoid form and opens the door, allowing Morgana inside.

Morgana: Alright, let's find that door.

The two search the house. For a small looking house on the outside, it was the complete opposite on the inside. Soon, Morgana finds the door that held the same design as the one in the Palace.

Morgana: Meggy, over here!

The Inkling turned the corner and walked up to the door. After a nod from Morgana, Meggy took out a hair clip.

Morgana: Now did Y/n actually teach you, or did you spend the night kissing?

Meggy: Eh... a little bit of both.

Morgana: Figures...

Meggy: I'm joking, Y/n taught me what I needed to know. Although I'm surprised to see that he knows how to pick locks.

Morgana: You can thank yours truly.

Minutes pass, and Meggy was still at the lock.

Morgana: You know, Y/n would have been done with this a while ago.

Meggy: Well, sorry that I'm not as skilled with my hands as Y/n is.

Morgana: Oh...~

Meggy, realizing what she said, blushed furiously.

Meggy: Shut up you stupid cat.

He didn't even argue with the fact that she called him a cat, but enjoyed the humor at what Meggy said. Finally, a click sounded and the door opened slightly.

Meggy: Yes!

Axol: What is the meaning of this?!

Meggy slowly turns around, seeing an angry Axol and a sheepishly smiling Saiko.
