Kid or Squid: Splatoon Meets Ninjala

The Autumn meets The Emperor

Auburn meets the intimidating eyes of Emperor, a high standing inkling of prestige and skill. Just by his looks alone it screams that he's a real certified hotshot. He's felt this sort of aura before with Ron, a ninja that's fought Berecca and Burton a few times before. Meeting this guy, he already wreaks of trouble. In response, he slowly turns away and looks back at his friends with a very intense look of nervousness. Everyone around the table got worried as well, "Guys? Who's that?" Auburn asked quietly. 

In a hushed voice, Specs spoke to him as the others drew closer to their table "That's our next opponent, Team Emperor. They're the most strongest and feared team in Inkopolis. The team captain was able to take on the S4 alone, and his turfing skills are godlike!" He shows him a video of the insane Team Battle between that team and the S4, the top shooters in Ranked Battles: Team Purple's Skull, Team Pink's Aloha, Team Cyan's Mask, and Team Orange's Army. Though they all are leaders of their own teams, their coordination was spot on, but that wasn't enough when all four of them faced Emperor and his squad.

Auburn looks at Spec's phone and skips around witnessing how each one of the S4 fell, the entire field was covered in golden sun ink- even the walls were covered in ink. That sort of coordination reminded him of a team that was just as vicious back in his years. They were known as Team Xceed, a team of professional ninja run by Ron and Jane. They knew what to do and they were merciless when fighting in Ninjala. Auburn and Berecca had a hard time facing them, but everything had flaws. It was a decisive battle, but attrition won that day with the entire match being nothing but parries until one falls.

"Hello, peasants." Emperor's rude greetings snapped him back from his intense memory, forcing him to act natural and not move from his seat. "I suppose you'll all be my opponents for the next bout. I truly cannot wait and see your skills, not the battlefield." He walks around the table looking at each inkling, while everyone stays quiet. He first passed by Specs, the leader, "I've heard a rumor that you've all taken down each of the S-ranked players one by one. I'm mildly impressed." Then he passes by Headphones, "Your first victory being Army and Team Orange, and they are usually very skilled in battle tactics." Next was Bobble Hat, still smiling like always, "But in the end, you all won somehow with smiles on your faces." Then he met up with Goggles eye to eye, "And you're usually the winning reason, aren't you?"

"Yeah! We practice every day, that's how we won!" Goggles answered him with a smile.

"Hmm. What a coincidence." As Emperor explains, the rest of his team took out their weapons. "So do we. I guess great minds think alike, I suppose, for a peasant." Even saying that, Goggles was never discouraged. "But..." Emperor soon walked towards Auburn, being the true focus of his and the team's unexpected visitation. When meeting him for the first time up close, he sees that he doesn't even look remotely like an inkling- let alone an octoling. Looking at his hair reminded him of a red inkbrush, and his face looks rather young and clearly wearing black eye shadow- probably trying to disguise himself. And the golden headphones, they aren't like anything he's seen before, probably customs. And his clothes... Unbelievable. He looks just like a street thug. "Hmm... Who might you be?"

"... Autumn." Auburn safeguards his own identity. It was an impulse formed from his ninja training: whenever he met with prying eyes or ears, he had to hide his identity at all costs. "It's Autumn."

"Hey wait, I thought your name was-" Goggles reckless correction and stupidity was shut down by Specs giving his fist in his mouth.

"AUTUMN!!! HIS NAME'S AUTUMN!!!" Specs screamed trying not to expose Auburn's race while making a scene, all the while Bobble just laughed at them while Headphones was dumbfounded... Again.
