"Kai, are you done yet?" Sol looked at Kai, his eyes narrow and his tone sharp.
"Yes, I just finished!"
"Okay good, we need to go before the maps update," Sol started to walk towards the lobby.
"Hold on! I still have one more bite!" Kai took his fork and shoved a mouthful of food into his mouth.
"Fine, but hurry up!" Sol said as he stood just outside the lobby.
A few minutes flew by as Kai got up to throw away his garbage. He walked over to the nearest trash can, but his eye caught a glimmer of something. He saw an alleyway leading into the darkness.
"Are you coming?" Sol hollered as he signaled with his hand to come.
"I'm coming, I promise!" Kai ran to catch up with Sol.
As they entered the lobby, they smiled. It was filled with different levels and Octolings and Inklings of all ages. They both walked up to the receptionist so that they could book a Turf War.
"Wow," Kai grinned. "This place is huge!"
"You were here yesterday."
"I know, but still!" Kai looked around the lobby to see if he could find any potential team members, as Sol continued to talk to the receptionist to book a Turf War.
Kai wandered around and found a group of people hanging out around the entrance.
"Hello! I'm Kai and I was wondering if any of you would like to join me and my friends team! We need two more members! Are any of you looking for a team?"
"Are you foreel? Who would want to team with someone like you?" One of the squids glowered.
"Well...uh...because it would be really fun! We can become really good friends too!"
"Ugh, I just can't deal with people like you. You're too happy and enthusiastic! I don't understand how anyone would be able to deal with that kind of...thing. Seeing you makes me think you were probably left on the street because of how annoying you are!" There was a short pause.
"Oh yeah? I was found on the street! My friend Sol found me. I had to leave my sister. I don't know if she made it out of the place I came from...." Kai's voice got softer as he started to look past them to focus on some of his memoirs. He wasn't able to fully remember a single one.
"Kai, hurry up! I booked us a battle!"
"Okay, well I have to go hopefully I can Turf with you two someday!" Kai ran over to where Sol was standing and prepared for his first Turf War of the day.
Sol readied his weapon, "So who were you talking to?"
"I was talking to another two-member team I was trying to see if they would join."
"Did they accept?" Sol asked.
"No they didn't, but there's always another chance!" Kai said with a cheerful expression on his face.
"Oh, the battle is about to start."
"Gotcha! Let's meet our team!"
"Um, Kai you know how I am with meeting new Squids and Octos-"
"Hello! My name is Kai and this is my dearest best buddy Sol!" Kai interrupted.
"Hello! My name is Hope and his name is Koi and we call our team of two Ahoy!" Hope sang.
Sol's face went pale, "H-hi"
"Yes! It's nice to meet you both." Koi responded.
"Oh the Turf War is about to start we should get ready!" Kai said
Hope fist-bumped the air, "Yeah, and we're gonna win!"
So they went to their spawn points and prepared to Turf. They had their weapons at hand and were ready to move.
I wonder what team we are up against? Kai thought. A few seconds later, the countdown began, and the battle started.
"Booyah!" Kai screamed.
Hope responded back, "Booyah!"
"You both are crazy." Sol and Koi said simultaneously.
So each team inked their spawn and started to make their way towards the middle section.
"Yo Kai!" Hope yelled. "You know the team we are fighting up against?"
"I actually don't... Are they good?" Kai questioned.
"Heck yeah! They're super fresh, and their name is Team Duo! They only have two members so they joined up with that team."
"What really?! I met them in the square!" Kai said excitedly. "Their names are Star and Niki!"
"Okay cool! Maybe I can get them to join me and Ko—" Before she hope could finish, SPLAT!
"Ha! Not a chance!" Niki announced.
"Woah! It's you! I told you that we would meet aga—"
"Quiet you!" Niki said, "I don't care!"
"Sup! It's nice to meet you again Kai! I'm really sorry we have to splat you." Star admitted.
"I mean you don't have to splat me!" Kai said, hoping that they wouldn't, but suddenly Niki disappeared.
"Where'd she go?!"
"Oh, she just went to get some higher ground."
"For what?" Before Kai could say another word, Niki shot up and aimed her charger right at Kai. Kai tried to dodge, but he wasn't as quick as he thought he was. Soon enough, he arrived back at spawn.
"Wow, that was cool!" Kai said, his eyes sparkling.
He started running again towards the middle, but he ran into the other pair that they teamed up with.
"Hey there, where do you think you're going?" One of them asked.
"I'm going," Kai paused, "over there!"
"Ha! Nice tr-" before they could finish the sentence Sol appeared behind them and splatted both of them.
"Nice! You've gotten stronger!" Kai told Sol.
"Y-yeah I guess so! Thanks!"
"Now there is one thing we have to get past, and if we can do that we can win!" Kai said. "We just have to get past Star and Niki. Those two are brutal!"
So Kai and Sol started to charge up their specials. Kai told Koi and Hope to try to get as close a possible to Niki and Star, and to try and splat the other two team members.
"Sol! Have you changed up your special?"
"Yes I have, are you ready?" Sol said.
"Of course! I'm as ready as I'll ever be!"
So Kai and Sol got ready as Koi and Hope got into position. They were ready to execute the plan. Just a few seconds were left in the match, so Sol and Kai super jumped through the air right towards Niki and Star. They then used their specials to make a double splashdown! This move splatted not only Star and Niki, but it covered more Turf. Just like that, the match was over, and the winner was to be determined!
