This is my Sandbox, which shows Splatoon Characters and story events that are part of my personal canon. Do you ever have the feeling that you hate the Splatoon Manga because the main protagonists act so stupid and immature? Well you've come to the right place! This is basically my version of the Manga. Share your thoughts about it in my Sandbox Talk Page. Enjoy!

Advanced Details
My Splatoon canon has differences from the Games to feel unique, and the Manga that make it more serious and action-packed than silly. Also, I made up Turf War laws as well too.

Turf War Rules & Laws

 * 1) New arrivals of the Turf War scene start with the "Rookie Set"     which has a 1000 Cash price for the whole set plus the entry fee, but can buy from shops right away with money they brought. Also, new Inklings (and Octolings) must be 14 years old in order to enter.
 * 2) Turf War lawyers place very strict rules: "There should be NO physical contact (Touching) with Teammates and opponents", "Manipulating battles will lead to indefinite bans" (A reference to Splatoon hackers), "Bribbing the Judds is forbidden", "A Team's Weapons should never be modified" (Another reference to Splatoon hackers and Grizzco Industries), "Squidbagging" opponents in matches will lead to a 10,000 Cash fine, "Food & drinks are prohibited in matches" (but gum is allowed), "Blunt weapons (knives, bats, etc.) used in matches are illegal. If a player is found with one, they are arrested".
 * 3) Elite Turf War Team members must have differing Special Weapons (e.g. Inkzooka, Inkstrike, Killer Wail & Kraken), this includes Bomb Rush/Launcher types. Meaning that two or more members can't have the same Special. Also, Teams must have two boys and two girls. But Splatsville contradicts the later rule; that a Team can consist of one gender, but ONLY can if they show lawyers proof that their biological-gender (The gender they were born as) matches the one they claim to be. Even going through a lie-detector test as a precaution. If not, they are rejected and arrested.
 * 4) Turf War lawyers must advertise for new competitors to replace Teams that disbanded or have been banned. They also have the rights to announce orders to replace Special Weapons and Gear Abilities that they feel are unfair, discontinue Stages and announce renovation construction on the returning ones, and also to retire certain ink colors to replace newer ones, or bring old ones back. A Team can change it's official color only once. Even if their previous one returns.
 * 5) Inkopolis Tower and Deca Tower are used as Turf War lobbies for Elite Teams to organize battles, along with random solo grouping options if Inklings/Octolings want to team-up with others, and Commentator studios. Plus, the "Tutorial Stages" are used by Teams for practice drills.
 * 6) The Shops in both Booyah Base & The Gallaria sell the Gear Items that are normally obtainable from both Hero Modes (OV, OC, OE), amiibo, Splatfest-Themed & Grizzco. With Gear made by the latter being sold for very expensive prices due to Mr. Grizz giving the sellers' "copyright fees" so he could potentially improve his business, while the Hero Mode, amiibo & Splatfest-Themed Gear Items are sold for cheap prices similar to the "Rookie Gear" (But they don't sell the Japan-Exclusive gear in: The FA-11 Bomber Jackets, The Limited Edition V-Neck Tees, The Milky Eminence Set, The Sennyu Collection, The Mecha Set & Koshien Set, due to my Canon being based on the American Versions). Also, Ammo Knights doesn't sell the Hero Weapon Replicas due to Sheldon agreeing to the New Squidbeak Splatoon's "secrecy policy" and never finding his Grandpappy's lost top-secret Weapon blueprints (The ones from S1's amiibo Challenges). Plus, the Online Set was the grand prize in a online contest as the only set in existence in June 2017 M.E, which Olivia won.

Hero Mode Chapters

 * 1) In Octo Valley, Agent 3's ink is always Orange regardless of the level.
 * 2) In Octo Canyon, Agent 4's ink is always Green regardless of level, and uses the Hero Dualies instead of the Hero Shot against DJ Octavio. Also, when Callie is freed from Octavio by Marie and sings along with her, she stays in her punk-rock attire.
 * 3) In the Octo Expansion, Agent 8's ink is always Pink regardless of test station. Also, mindjacked Agent 3's ink is her Orange but with the Sanitized ink's texture and uses different Specials in the Spinal Phase fight which are: Splashdown, Inkjet, Inkzooka, Suction-Bomb Launcher, Bubble Blower and Tenta Missiles.
 * 4) The Deepsea Metro map has a completely different layout. Line A has four train paths at it's end. The first one leads to Line C that also leads to Lines B & F. The second one leads to Lines D & I. The third one leads to Lines G & E. The fourth one leads to Lines J & H. Also, the four Thangs are guarded by the Sanitized Octobosses rather than be at their own stations.
 * 5) Normal Octarian Octolings' Octo Shots are black (in Octo Valley & Canyon + plus the Octo Shot Replica), while Sanitized Octolings' Octo Shots are olive-green (in Deepsea Metro).
 * 6) In "Return of the Mammalians", Agent 3's ink color is always Yellow regardless of the level. Plus, Callie, Marie and Captain Sally's ink colors are their classic Bright Pink, Fern Green and Orange respectively instead of Yellow.

Inkling & Octoling Life

 * 1) Inklings are born with matching ink and eye colors, but sometimes don't match with rarer colors (like brown eyes and blue ink). They can control their squid-forms and change their ink & eye colors at will at 14 years of age. The Inkling's average lifespan is 79 to 100 years, but can be longer by doing the sun-drying practice (only Cap'n Cuttlefish is known to have done this). An Inkling can grow to an average height of 5 to 6 feet tall (with the exception of Pearl who is 4 feet tall).
 * 2) Octolings are born with Pink or Purple ink, but with different eye colors and are immediately exposed to DJ Octavio's mind-control music. They have the same lifespan, growth and abilities as Inklings. Girls are sent to military and technological training at very young ages, while Boys are sent into labor services for the Octarian Army.

Community & Media

 * 1) Music is a big part of the Inkling community. With songs from Inkopolis' hit bands highly used in Turf War battles.
 * 2) Video Games are also popular. With the various games released by Ancho-V, along with other developers. An example game is: "Splatzecution" (A parody of DOOM), which is a popular online multiplayer first-person-shooter.
 * 3) Social Media is everyone's go-to entertainment sites, with the likes of "Splat-Stop" (parody of Facebook and Twitter), 'Decalog" (parody of Discord and Reddit), "Squid-Vids" (parody of YouTube and Instagram), and "Swim-Dive" (parody of Twitch).
 * 4) TV & Movies are common pastimes. The most popular TV-Show is "Splatty Toons" (which is actually the Splatoon Manga as an action/comedy anime), along with Fresh Fish and "Callie-Dayz" (The TV drama that Callie stars in). The most popular Movies are "Deca-Power Troopers" (parody of 'Power Rangers', which is an action-hero movie trilogy) and "Galaxy Splat-Wars" (parody of 'Star Wars', which is a sci-fi/action movie/TV series saga). Inkopolis News is popular in the competitive Turf War scene, where news, live-streams and announcements of matches, tournaments and Splatfests are aired.
 * 5) Websites are another source of news. The most popular site is "SplatNet", where Turf War-related news & topics can be viewed. It is also where Inklings & Octolings can enter and qualify into the competitive scene, either in Teams or solo. Inkopolis News can be accessed from this site as well. During the "Splatoon 2-era", the website now has a Gear Shop ran by Annie & Moe.
 * 6) Books are another common pastime and hobby in the forms of story books, novels, comics, manga, magazines and catalogs. With story books having fairy-tails and light-hearted adventures. Novels have grossing stories of wonder, mystery and fantasy. Comics are action-packed fictional stories about good vs. evil, and superheroes. Manga are comic stories with a mix of action and humor. While magazines and catalogs are for shopping advertisements for popular shopping centers, with the former focused on major fashion and Turf War info, and the later features ads of store products and coupons for shops in Booyah Base, The Gallaria, Arowana Mall and MakoMart.

Series Back-Story
Part 1: Extinction of Humanity.

(Year: Unknown~39XX A.D); Humans have had many grueling conflicts; from America fighting to liberate Europe from German extremists and Japanese warlords in the Pacific during the first two World Wars, to territory disputes in Korea, numerous battles in the Middle East, and the war against terrorism, but none of those would be as catastrophic as World War 5. Before that, in World War 3 in 24XX A.D., America dropped an A-bomb on the Chinese capitol to force them to surrender as payback for corrupting America's government numerous times. But that time of peace would only last for 800 years, where the Germans were upgrading their military arsenal and expanding their territory into China's now-apocalyptic landscape and joining the country's surviving leaders, while going back to their extremist ways, but America answered back with a stronger A-bomb to end World War 4. But again, the surviving Chinese leaders fought back again 700 years later by obliterating Kyoto and London with an antimatter bomb, starting World War 5. Then, two years into the war, America was going to launch their most powerful A-bomb ever at the enemy, but an unexpected and critical GPS error on the bomb instead launched it at the Antarctic. U.S. military analysis claimed that the resulting atomic blast will completely melt the continent in a matter of weeks and cause sea levels to rise to catastrophic proportions combined with years of global warming and humanity's many failed attempts to rid of it. America pleaded with the other countries and the enemy for a truce in hopes of avoiding potential extinction, by hiding away in cities underground and underwater, fleeing Earth to find a new habitable planet, adapt to sea-life via DNA transplants and mutations, or enter cryo-stasis pods. But all those attempts ended in failure, with the cities collapsing from the increasing water-pressure, the space craft; "New Horizons of Polaris" crashed moments after lift-off, all the DNA test subjects died upon injection, and there being not enough stasis pods for all of humanity. So, the scientist who lead the project, instead created an AI codenamed "Tartar" and programmed it with humanity's history, knowledge and warnings to not make the same mistakes that brought their demise to the next intelligent species, and hid it away in an abandoned underwater subway near where Japan was, then he put his pet cat in a special cryo-stasis capsule that also acts as a cloning device, as he thought it would be lonely. Soon after that, all dry land was swallowed up by the sea, and the humans, and all land animals went extinct. It would take ten millennias for the water levels to return to normal, leading to a new era and new breeds of intelligent life...

Part 2: New Life.

(Year: 139XX A.D | 1 M.E); During the 10,000 years of Earth being completely flooded, many sea creatures began to evolve. At the end of that time-frame, the sea levels dropped back to normal, leading the sea creatures to leave their watery dwelling for a new utopia on the dry land and evolve to adapt to it, starting The Mollusc Era. The first species that arose were squids and octopuses, which evolved into the Inklings and Octarians respectively and started scavenging the ruined settlements of humanity for garbs to cover their bodies, new food sources, started reverse-engineering human technology and searching for new homes. Later, some other sea creatures arose in jellyfish, crustaceans, fish and many other species came in. One day, some Inklings were excavating a ruined laboratory where they found a white capsule-like device inside, containing something or someone within. They open it to see a being they had never seen before. They searched the device's data to figure out what the creature was; a cat named "Judd". The last land mammal. Judd surveyed his new surroundings and began to help the Inklings and Octarians in rebuilding the human cities and towns, the Inklings had also found fossils of humans while digging new foundations. Then, one day, an Inkling decided to go swim in the ocean by jumping off a dock, but to some bystanders' horror the Inkling dissolved into the water, dead. This shocking accident showed the Inklings and Octarians that they can no longer go back to their original home due to how they evolved, except for the jellyfish, who can still survive in water. Centuries later, in 1910 M.E., the Inkling and Octarian societies were at an all time high. With 2nd Lieutenant "Craig Cuttlefish" of the Inklings' Squidbeak Splatoon and the Octarians' leader "DJ Octavio" of the Octarian Army, were having a good friendship and promised to help one another against the random Salmonid attacks that have ravaged coastal towns, and other Inklings began to migrate to other continents. But that friendship was going to be short-lived, as the first major war of the Mollusc Era was on the horizon. And the AI made by the late human professor was still operational and undiscovered. Watching the Inklings and Octarians, and everything they did so far, and started to despise them...

Part 3: The Great Turf War.

(Year: 1912~1915 M.E); A year after making his promise to Cuttlefish, Octavio began to envy how much more territory the Inklings had over him and his Octarians. He ordered his most skilled military mechanics to build massive weapons in preparation to declare war on the Inklings. The now-named Great Octoweapons were finished within a year, and in 1912 M.E, the Octarian Army surprise-attacked the Inklings' central stronghold "Fort Tidebeak". Cuttlefish was shocked by his old friend betraying him, and declared war against the Octarians. Thus the "Great Turf War" began. The first battles of the war were won by the Octarians, due to the Inkling soldiers of the Squidbeak Splatoon being too lazy to wake up early for combat drills, counter enemy attacks and their Bamboozler rifles being ineffective against the Great Octoweapons' metal armor, along with their crushing loss at Arowana Castle. But in the third year of the war, at "The Battle of Mount Nantai", an Inkling soldier was hiding below one of the Great Octoweapons; "The Mighty Octostomp", where she pulled one of it's power-plugs in curiosity, leading to the metallic behemoth shutting down. With this discovery, she contacted Cuttlefish about the Octoweapons' weaknesses. The Inkling soldiers then charged at the remaining Octoweapons, pulling any plug they saw, while splatting many Octotroopers in their way. Octavio was shocked by the sudden loss of his most powerful assets and ordered all his remaining troops to retreat. With the Inklings' victory, Judd waved the Squidbeak Splatoon's flag for their win and Cuttlefish was praised as a hero and promoted to Captain. But Octavio vowed for revenge and hid him and his forces in their nearby bases in Octo Valley and Octo Canyon.

Part 4: A Century of Peace.

(Year: 1916~2013 M.E); Many events transpired in between the end of The Great Turf War and the start of the Turf War League. A year after the Inklings' victory in the Great Turf War, the city of Inkopolis was founded. 1972~1979 M.E was Terror Finblade and his Lockjaw Gang's crime spree. Cap'n Cuttlefish preserved his body with the "sun-drying" practice so he can keep an eye on the Octarians longer and the Squidbeak Splatoon was disbanded in 1980 M.E. Pearl is born in 1996 M.E, Callie and Marie are born in 1998 M.E a few months between each other, and Marina is born in 1999 M.E. Inkopolis' first "Youth Folk-Singing Contest" was held in 2002 M.E, which Callie and Marie won at the ages of 4. But in the 2009 M.E Contest, Pearl, at the age of 13, nearly destroyed the auditorium with her extremely-loud voice. In 2012 M.E, Pearl, now age 16, decided to try a rapper career, but it started rough when her first single; "[REDACTED] Dudes be [REDACTED] Sleepin'", got highly-negative criticism for it's NSFW content and name. Meanwhile, deep in Octo Valley, DJ Octavio began hatching his revenge plan against the Inklings; secretly steal all of Inkopolis' Zapfish and the Great Zapfish and use them to revive the Great Octoweapons for the attack and power the Octarian Domes, as they were running low on artificial electricity. But even with his best military engineer "Marina" rebuilding and upgrading the Octoweapons, it would take 3 years for the project to be finished. Cap'n Cuttlefish, now age 125, caught word of his former friend's plot and built a shack in Octo Valley to keep an eye on the Octarians' movements, along with re-founding the Squidbeak Splatoon now as the more secretive "New Squidbeak Splatoon" and recruited his granddaughters, Callie and Marie, as Agents 1 & 2 respectively and gave each of them the Hero Roller and Hero Charger respectively as their own Weapons to fight the Octarians, as a top-secret gift from an old war-time friend; "Ammoses Shellendorf", who also gave him the Hero Shot to give to a future Agent. Then, in 2013 M.E, Inkopolis announces world-wide of a new Inkling-centered sport in the region; "Turf War", modernized versions of the territory battles of old, and that solo and Team entries will be open in mid-2015 M.E. Which got nearly every 12 year-old Inkling on the globe hooked and excited!

Thus, the story of Splatoon is about to begin!!

Story (S1)
PROLOGUE: The Start of Sally and Hunter's Extreme Grudge

(Year: 2014~2015 M.E); It was the start of the 2014~2015 school year in Wave County High. Sally was having her lunch when Hunter, a known bully with his gang; Cara, Xavier and Justice, came to her and demanded her to do his school work and tests or he'll slam her head in the toilet if she told Principal Frillard or her parents on him. Sally agreed in fear for her life and did what he told her to do. Her parents were concerned with what happened to her there over Squidmas break. But it was close to Summer Break that everything came to light. When in the school hallway, Hunter ordered Sally to do his final along with her's. Her anger skyrocketed and she grabbed and threw him into her locker and started bludgeoning him with a history book. School security stopped the fight and Sally and Hunter's parents were called to the principal's office to know what happened. While Hunter went to the nurse for a bruised face and a severe concussion, Sally told Principal Frillard, Hunter's parents and her's about him threatening her to do his work for the entire school year. Her parents were horrified, while Hunter's parents were infuriated with him. Mr. Frillard finalized their consequences; Sally would immediately graduate, while Hunter would have summer school at home. Sally would never smile again, not going to family gatherings and holidays. She demanded plane tickets for Inkopolis for her birthday. Hunter was grounded for the entire summer to do his summer school work. His parents boarded up his windows and locked him in his room until his punishment was over. Sally swore to her parents, she'll be happy only when Hunter and his friends are in jail for life.

CHAPTER 1: Plaza Beginnings

(Year: 2015 M.E); Inkopolis' new hottest sport: Turf War, has caught the attention of Inklings all over the world. Sally used the plane tickets she got to go there to enjoy a new life. She also brought her friends; Dylan, Sarah and Nick along to become a top Team. When they arrived in Inkopolis Plaza, they spotted nine other Teams hanging out, but one sparked Sally's rage. Blue Team, lead by none other than Hunter. She immediately went to him and kicked him in the crotch. Everyone was shocked by the act of violence and asked her why she did it. She said that they have a history and she did that for revenge. Inkopolis News started on the jumbotron and the hosts; Callie & Marie started with breaking news. A strange UFO crashed near a construction site and the Great Zapfish disappeared! Everyone in the Plaza ignored the news. Then, Marie announced the Qualifying Turf War matches which will be on Urchin Underpass, while the matchups are: Orange vs. Blue, Pink vs. Green, Purple vs. Turquoise, Yellow vs. Light Blue and Lime vs. Soda, while being commentated by Charles & April.

(Part 1: Qualifying Rounds); Everyone was told about the rules and that they have to have specific clothing to participate and a unique weapon and pointed to the Plaza's strip mall: Booyah Base. Everyone purchased what they wanted but, there was a problem at Ammo Knights. The police were there because someone tried stealing a Custom Dual Squelcher from another customer. Sheldon told them that Cara, one of Hunter's teammates did the attempt. So, Blue Team was given a trespass note from the mall. After that, everyone got on the bus to Urchin Underpass, with the matches going by swiftly. Afterwards, Sally shouted out to everyone in the Plaza that she demands the other Teams to challenge her's in Turf War, which they all agree to. Then, everyone got apartments near the Plaza. Meanwhile, Sally and her Team went with Nattily and her Team to the cafe in the Plaza to chat and relax in preparation for their upcoming battles.

(Part 2: vs. Lime Team); The next day, Dylan told Sally that he suggested that they should take on their challengers by highest to lowest Rank, which Sally aggrees saying "the lower-Ranked Teams will start fearing us that way". So their first challenger was the 'Rank S' Lime Team, lead by Adam. He stated to Sally that his Team is as formidable as hers and requested to battle on Mahi-Mahi Resort. The Teams spawn in and start inking towards Mid at different paths. Sally encounters Frexa inking parts of Mid on a platform and throws a Suction Bomb to force her to jump over the water to splat her, but she tosses out her Splash Wall to protect her escape but only to get splatted by her while deploying it. Sally and Sarah take control of Mid together with Dylan helping from his Perch, but they failed to spot Matt who was attempting to ambush Dylan but he saw it coming and activated his Kraken to counter him. It was becoming a standstill at the midway point of the match, with more Turf available from the lowered water, as Nick and Tina both launched their Inkstrikes at it, while Sally and Adam were struggling to splat each other. At the 1 minute mark, Adam orders his Team to initiate their signature Battle Tactic: "Squeeze-Out" but only to get splatted while saying it, which lead to Sally ordering to initiate their own Battle Tactic: "All-Out Assault" and start to charge towards Lime Team's spawn, Specials ready. Adam respawns back only to get sniped by Sally's Inkzooka and Tina tries to splat them from the nearby hill but is immediately forced back by Sarah's Killer Wail. With 30 seconds left, Adam and Matt both activate their Kraken and Bubbler respectively in hesitation and charge in only for both of them to get pushed into the water by Sally and Dylan's shots. Nick and Sarah see Frexa secretly inking Turf on their side during the commotion, so Nick fires off an Inkstrike in front of Frexa while Sarah flanked her just at time ran out. Judd calculated the Turf score and Orange Team won with 79.4% to Lime Team's 20.6%. Sally gave her Teammates thumbs-ups for their win, only for Adam and his Teammates to come over, offering handshakes for the good game, praising their intense playstyle. Orange Team then started to prepare for their next challenger: The energetic and stylish Purple Team!

(Part 3: vs. Purple Team); After their match with Lime Team, Orange Team set their sights on their next challenger; the 'Rank A+' Purple Team, lead by Tracey. She requested that they battle on Bluefin Depot and wished them good luck, but Sally just gave her a serious glance. The Teams spawn in and start inking towards both sides of Mid. Terry surprisingly splats Sarah from his Right-Perch with help from Mala, leading Purple Team to secure one side of Mid. On the other side, Sally splats Peter who was focusing on Dylan, but got splatted by Tracey in return, while ordering to initiate her Team's Battle Tactic: "Sweet Vengeance" and activates her Suction-Bomb Rush on to Dylan's position, forcing him to super jump back to spawn. At the midway point of the match, Purple Team has control on both sides of Mid and Orange Team's Court-Area and start heading towards their spawn, but while Tracey, Peter and Mala were crossing the grated ramp, Sally activates her Inkzooka and splats all three of them in one shot, leading Terry to super jump back. Sally then orders to initiate their Battle Tactic to make their counter-push, at the 1 minute mark where Sarah fires her Killer Wail right at Purple Team's spawn to halt their return, while Nick fires off an Inkstrike towards a side of Mid. Peter tries to ambush Dylan with his Kraken, but Dylan counters back with his. With 30 seconds left, Tracey and Terry activate their Specials together to push back in, only to get splatted by another Inkstrike by Nick, which lead to Mala frantically try to launch a last-second Inkstrike, but got splatted by Sally before it even went off. Time ran out soon after that, and Judd calculated the Turf scores to declare a close win for Orange Team with 51.8% to Purple Team's 48.2%. Tracey congratulated Sally for her Team's win and giving her Team a "fun, but hectic match". Sally then started to focus on her Team's next challenger: The comeback kids of Yellow Team!

(Part 4: vs. Yellow Team); One hour later, Sally and her Team started stratigizing for their match against the 'Rank A' Yellow Team, lead by May. Soon after they finished their discussion, May came towards them and wished them good luck and requested to battle on Camp Triggerfish. The Teams spawn in and start inking towards each other's side of Mid to set up their defense, but Steve splats Dylan there and activates his Echolocator. May was covering Turf away from deadly engagements while Kyle inked Orange Team's side from his Perch. The Teams then got locked in a stalemate for a minute. Meanwhile, at the 1:30 mark, Sarah and Nick snuck toward Yellow Team's Fort to flank onto their side and successfully splat both Steve and Kyle. With 1 minute left, the floodgates to each Teams' side dropped down, leading May to order to initiate their Battle Tactic: "Underdog Boost" to mount their comeback while Sally initiated her's, ordering her Teammates to split up and attack Yellow Team's Court-Area from both sides of the Stage. Sarah fired her Killer Wail straight at Yellow's Court-Area to scatter them, while Nick fires off an Inkstrike at their Lake Bed-Area. But Ava was ready to splat them with her Inkzooka behind her Splash Wall, were Sally suddenly threw a Suction Bomb from their Fort at the Splash Wall to instantly splat Ava, leading May to panic-activate her Bubbler to take on Dylan's Kraken. With 30 seconds left, Steve activates his Echolocator from his Spawn-Perch only to get splatted by Sally's Inkzooka. Kyle then fires off a last-second Inkstrike just as time ran out, hoping it was enough. But it was for nothing as Judd declared Orange Team the victor with 86.3% to Yellow's 13.7%. May was disappointed but still congratulated Sally for her win. When they returned to Inkopolis Plaza, Orange Team began to prepare for their next challenger: The skilled stunt-squids of Turquoise Team!

(Part 5: vs. Turquoise Team); A while later, Orange Team was stratigizing for their next challenger when suddenly, they heard a commotion in the Plaza. They went to see what was going on, only to see the Leader of their next challenger; Mia of the 'Rank A-' Turquoise Team, showing off her roller skating tricks in front of a large group. She spots Sally in the crowd and rolls toward her to offer a generous handshake, but Sally instead asked why she wasn't practicing with her Team. Mia said that she roller skates before Turf War to "bring her mojo into battle" and that she wants to battle on Flounder Heights. When they arrived, the Teams spawn in and headed out at the start of the bell and start inking towards Top-Mid. It was only 20 seconds into the match and Orange Team suddenly gets marked by Mia's Echolocator, which forced them to reroute their push, but Sarah was already climbing up a wall to ambush Turquoise Team's Roof and got splatted by Jake. Then at the 1:30 mark, Mia calls for her Teammates to initiate their Battle Tactic: "Stunt Shot" to put pressure on Orange Team and activates her Echolocator again. Chris tries to ambush Dylan but gets splatted by his Kraken. Sarah and Della engage each other in Turquoise Team's Court-Area, where Della activates her Bubbler to survive and splat her, but Sarah Fires her Killer Wail right at Della to push her out of her Squiffer's range and also splat her when her Bubbler ran out, and Sarah also splatted Mia who tried to ambush her. Now with a numbers advantage and 1 minute left in the match, Sally orders her Teammates to initiate their Battle Tactic and start their push. Sally and Dylan stay on top of Top-Mid to support Sarah and Nick as they charged into Turquoise Team's Pit-Area. Nick fires off an Inkstrike to scatter them while Sally takes out Mia and Della with her Inkzooka who tried to slip past her. Chris attempts to flank them with his own Inkzooka but is forced to retreat by Dylan's Kraken. With 30 seconds left, Jake activates his Splat-Bomb Rush in an attempt to force Sarah and Nick to retreat, in which they do, but only to fire off their Specials. Time then ran out and Judd calculated the Turf score and declared that Orange Team had won with 64.8% to Turquoise Team's 35.2%. Mia gave Sally a thumbs-up and then strolled off to figure out how tho improve her Team for the future, while Sally started to plan for her next challenger: The slip-groove peeps of Pink Team!

(Part 6: vs. Pink Team); After a quick lunch-break, Orange Team began planning their match with their next challenger; the 'Rank B-' Pink Team, lead by Rick. When they met him, Rick requested that they battle on Blackbelly Skatepark and to wish them good luck in the match and they're gonna need it. The Teams spawn in at the sound of the bell and head out towards Top-Mid. Rick then suddenly orders his Team to initiate their Battle Tactic: "Dance-Fight" to distract Orange Team. Dylan sets himself up on Top-Mid and sees Josh doing back-flips and Slosher-Spins, but his tricks didn't fool Dylan gets splatted by him. Sarah heads through Pink Team's Half-Pipe to see Elly swimming over them like a skateboarder but gets splatted. Then, at the 2 minute mark, Nick and Ovie get locked in a standoff until Rick ambushes Nick and splats him. At the 1:30 mark, Sally attempts to splat Rick but he suddenly super jumps away. Sally watches his trajectory and finds out that he's jumping to one of the Squid Beakons he hid on her Team's side of the Stage. Sally warns Dylan about it, and just in time. Rick had flanked and climbed up Top-Mid to ambush Dylan but he immediately activates his Kraken to splat him. Nick pinpoints where Rick's other two Squid Beakons are and fires off an Inkstrike towards them, and splats Josh in the process of his landing. Now with 1 minute left and a numbers advantage, Sally orders her Teammates to initiate their Battle Tactic and begin to push towards Pink Team's spawn. With 30 seconds remaining, Ovie and Elly try to flank them through Pink Team's Half-Pipe but get splatted by Sarah's Killer Wail. Cornered, Rick, Josh and Elly charge their Specials from their spawn and activate them but had to withdraw due to Dylan's Kraken. But Josh escapes by Pink Team's Ledge and attempts to fire off a last-second Inkstrike but is instantly splatted by Sally's Inkzooka. Time then ran out and Judd calculated the Turf scores and revealed that Orange Team won with a whopping 94.6% to Pink Team's 5.4%. Rick thanked them for the "intense" match and then rode off on his skateboard. Orange Team then was getting ready for their next challenger: The camo-crusaders of Green Team!

(Part 7: vs. Green Team); Half an hour later, Orange Team got set up to take on their next challenger; the first of the two 'Rank C+' Squads: Green Team, lead by Nattily. She meets them and requests that they battle on Arowana Mall. When they arrived, they spawned in and headed out at the sound of the bell. Both Teams knew that the side that took control of Mid and the opponent's Closed-Alley would get a big advantage, so both Teams split up. Sally, Sarah, Andy and Gwen headed through their Pit and Court Areas toward Mid, while Dylan and Nattily headed toward their respective Perches, and Nick and Paul headed through their Closed-Alleys. Orange Team arrived at Mid first to encounter Nattily ordering her Teammates to initiate their Battle Tactic: "Hunt or Be Hunted" and start holding their positions, but she gets immediately sniped by Sally's Inkzooka. Sarah climbs toward Green Team's Closed-Alley to encounter Paul who then hits her with a Disruptor and splats her. At the 2 minute mark, the Teams were at a stalemate, repeatedly trading splats when suddenly, at the 1 minute mark, Dylan splats both Andy and Gwen with his Kraken after they splatted Nick and tried to ambush him through their Closed-Alley, and Sally splatted Nattily with her Inkzooka again. Realizing that he's outnumbered, Paul super jumps back to spawn so Green Team can mount their defense and attempt a comeback. Orange Team initiated their Battle Tactic and began their push into Green Team's spawn. Sarah fired her Killer Wail through the middle of the Stage to split up Green's defenses, while Nick fires off an Inkstrike. Nattily fires her own Killer Wail through her Closed-Alley to prevent Orange Team from pushing through there, while Gwen and Paul both activate their Specials together and Andy fires off a last-second Inkstrike to finally finish the match as time ran out. Judd calculated the Turf scores and concludes that Orange Team defeated Green Team with a 0.5% gap! He shows the totals as 41.2% to 40.7! Nattily was both astonished and disappointed in the results and complemented how foolproof Orange Team's aggressive strategy is and says that she hopes to one day defeat them. With a close win, Sally then set her eyes on her Team's next challenger: The chillin' & splattin' Light Blue Team!

(Part 8: vs. Light Blue Team); A while later, Orange Team was gearing up for their next challenger; the last of the two 'Rank C+' Squads: Light Blue Team, lead by Hal. He claims that he won't easily admit defeat due to his Team's low rank and requests to battle on Museum d'Alfonsino. The Teams then headed there by bus and got ready on their respective Spawn Points. They then headed out at the sound of the bell and start inking towards Mid from different paths. Hal and his Teammates Lara and Ned arrived at Mid first and immediately get splatted by Sally and Dylan. Marcy was stationed at her Team's Windmill and activates her Echolocator before she super jumped back to spawn so she won't get splatted too. Seeing that they can push, Sally orders her Teammates to initiate their Battle Tactic and start piling pressure on Light Blue Team. Hal respawns at the 1:30 mark and sees the opportunity to initiate his Team's Battle Tactic: "Crash Course" to potentially counter Orange Team's aggressive strategy. Hal activates his Burst-Bomb Rush but is taken out by Dylan's Kraken. Later at the 1 minute mark, Lara fires off her Killer Wail from her Closed to scatter Orange Team but is soon targeted and splatted by Nick's Inkstrike. With 30 seconds left, Ned activates his Bubbler and chains it on Hal who also activates his Burst-Bomb Rush to try to splat Sarah at Light Blue's Windmill, but she fires her Killer Wail right at them leading Ned to get pushed into the water. But Hal survives, only to get splatted by Sally's Inkzooka just as time ran out. Judd calculated the Turf scores and dubs Orange Team the winner with 89.9% to Light Blue Team's 7.5%. Hal was baffled by Orange Team's confidence under pressure and went off with his Team to practice harder in hopes of beating them. Sally then set gaze at her Team's penultimate challenger: The crazy & excitable Soda Team!

(Part 9: vs. Soda Team); Leaving a trail of domination behind them, Orange Team set eyes on their penultimate challenger; the 'Rank C' Soda Team, lead by Max. He states to Sally that his Team has potential, despite their low Rank and requests to battle on Ancho-V Games. The Teams arrived and spawned in and headed out at the sound of the bell. Orange Team quickly takes over Mid and fully wipes Soda Team and start charging their Specials and pushing towards their spawn. Max and his Team respawn and he orders them to initiate their Battle Tactic: "Jet Stream" to try to bait Orange Team into an ambush. The plan then backfires on them when Orange Team reach Soda's Court Area and activate all their Specials in unison and splat all of Soda Team again. With 1:30 left in the match, Soda Team activate their Specials to attempt a comeback, but Orange Team just dodges them all and continues their pressure for the rest of the match. Judd calculated the Turf scores and revealed that Orange Team won with a whopping 97.5% to Soda Team's measly 2.5%. Max was upset that he was defeated and didn't show his Team's potential, and stormed off with his Teammates to hopefully get better at Turf War. Orange Team now has one last challenger to face. The worst Team in the Plaza, and Orange Team's arch-rival: Blue Team. And Sally furiously wanted them to feel the pain of complete annihilation and utter defeat...

(Part 10: vs. Blue Team); It was time for Orange Team to fight their final challenger; the 'Rank C-' Blue Team, lead by Sally's archenemy, Hunter. When the Teams met in the Plaza, Hunter started taunting them by calling their win-streak "a fluke and that they are complete frauds" and that he only challenged them as payback for their qualifying match. Sally answered back by kicking him in the crotch like usual and yelling at the top of her lungs at him saying to "prove it". Hunter requested to fight on Saltspray Rig and threatened to pull down Sally's shorts if he wins. The threat to her modesty threw Sally into a fiery rage and grabbed Hunter by his jacket collar and slams him head-first into the pavement and stomped on his face. Hunter reformed out of his puddle of ink and shouted that "IT'S ON" and the Teams proceeded to the boats for the ride to the Stage. When the bell sounded, the Teams headed out to take control of both Mid and the Container-Court Areas. Orange Team arrived there first and easily took control of it but Blue Team was there to ambush them on their Perch and Wall only for all of them to get splatted by Sally's Inkzooka, and then orders to initiate her Team's Battle Tactic. Pissed-off, Hunter ordered his Teammates to initiate their Battle Tactic: "If Ya Can't Win..." with the "Fight Dirty" option. At the 1:30 mark, Cara encountered Sarah inking Blue's Court-Area and called to her from her Spawn-Alley saying that she's a dummy to get her attention to splat her, but she kept missing her, which prompted Sarah to tease her saying "she can successfully hit the port-side of a luxury cruise ship". Cara got furious and activates her Kraken but gets pushed off by Sarah's perfectly timed Killer Wail. Meanwhile, Xavier activates his Echolocator and decided to take on Dylan, who was in Bottom-Mid. Xavier calls him a "halibutt" and attacks him, only to get splatted by Dylan's Kraken. Then, Justice was hiding in Container-Court, inking from the top of the containers and spots Nick approaching her. She activates her Bubbler, but is caught by suprise as Nick fired off an Inkstrike towards her. She tried to run away, but is launched off the Stage from the conflicting Specials. When she respawns, she starts to panic and remains at Blue Team's Spawn Point for the rest of the match. With 1 minute left, Hunter super jumps to one of Cara's Squid Beakons hidden in Container-Court and spots Sally in Mid. Hunter fires his Killer Wail at her, but she dodges it and proceeded to engage her bitter-rival. Hunter throws his Burst Bombs and fires random Blaster shots at her but she avoided the barrage and splats him. With 10 seconds left, Nick fires off a final Inkstrike at Blue Team's spawn-platform just as time ran out. Judd then calculated the Turf scores and dubs Orange Team the unanimous victor with an astounding 99.8% to Blue Team's 0.2%. When the Teams returned to the Plaza, Adam came running towards Sally in a state of amazement. He stated that he was monitoring Orange Team's battle stats on SplatNet from his phone after his Team's match with her's and revealed that Orange Team had reached 'Rank S+ 99' in a single day! Every other Team that Orange Team faced came and congratulated them as the greatest Team in the Plaza! But Blue Team wasn't happy with the news. Hunter was furious and demanded for a rematch, but Sally kicked him in the crotch again and yelled "KNOW YOUR PLACE, WEAKLING" at him. Hunter stormed off with his Teammates and vows for revenge against her one day while giving her the "Rotten" gesture as he went to his apartment. Meanwhile, during the commotion of the other Teams' cheers of Sally's huge accomplishment, an old Inkling man peaks from the manhole and spots Sally while saying to himself; "She's the one"...

CHAPTER 2: Octo Valley

(Year: 2015 M.E); Sally was chilling in her apartment reminiscing about destroying Blue Team and her Team rising to S+ 99, becoming the best Team in Inkopolis. When she got her Inkopolis Plaza Monthly magazine, she also got a strange letter saying to meet them via the manhole is the Plaza. She decided to find out who sent the message and went through the manhole finding Octo Valley, an area far away from Inkopolis. She finds an old Inkling man who says his name is Cap'n Cuttlefish and that he sent the letter to her, seeing powerful skill within her. He tells her that it was the Octarians who were behind the disappearance of the Great Zapfish and says they did it as revenge for their loss in the Great Turf War 100 years ago. Sally aggrees to help and Cuttlefish gives her the Hero Suit and Hero Shot and dubs her Agent 3, then she sets out with Cuttlefish giving her advice on how to progress.

(Part 1: Area 1); Cap'n Cuttlefish tells Agent 3 about the hidden Octarian hideouts containing the Zapfish required to open the Boss Kettle in order to proceed and how to find them. She finds the first mission codenamed; Octotrooper Hideout, and enters it. Agent 3 easily took out the scouts of Octotroopers and claims it's Zapfish. After returning, Cuttlefish congratulated her and pinpoints the next two missions' locations. She then claims their Zapfish easily. With the three Zapfish, the Boss Kettle opens up and Agent 3 enters it to see a Zapfish get snatched by a large Octo tentacle in a massive cube, when suddenly it comes to life as the Octostomp. Agent 3 easily destroys it to save the Zapfish it stole. Cuttlefish contacts her afterwards for a report and theorized that the Octarians were using the Zapfish they stole to revive the Great Octoweapons in preparation for an attack on Inkopolis. Agent 3 vowed to prevent that and proceeded to the next Area.

(Part 2: Area 2); Agent 3 arrived in Area 2 when Cuttlefish contacted her saying that the Area's Boss Kettle needed six Zapfish this time. So, she proceeded to the next mission codenamed; Floating Sponge Garden, where she parkoured through it to claim it's Zapfish, then proceeded to save the other five missions' Zapfish to open the second Boss Kettle. After she entered it, she spots a rusty, seaweed covered pillar in the center of a basin of Octarian ink that suddenly started moving. Cuttlefish describes it as the Octonozzle and warns Agent 3 about it's snot-ball attacks, leading to her taking it out without worry and saves the Zapfish that was powering it. Afterwards, Cap'n Cuttlefish called her for another report when a mysterious villain interupted them, but it's voice quality was so bad that Cuttlefish thought his radio receiver was malfunctioning. So he ordered Agent 3 to investigate the next Area.

(Part 3: Area 3); Agent 3 arrived in Area 3 to find out it's Boss Kettle needed another six Zapfish. She proceeded to the closest mission codenamed; Flooder Junkyard, which was swarming with them. Agent 3 avoided their sights to claim the Zapfish. Then, she claimed the remaining five Zapfish to open the third Boss Kettle to take on the Octowhirl. In a difficult few dodges, Agent 3 figured out that she needed to immobilize it by making it charge into her ink, which she easily does due to her Turf War experience and destroys it to save it's Zapfish. Cuttlefish called her again for another report and tells her about calling in Agents 1 & 2, but then the mysterious villain from earlier kidnaps him mid conversation. Agent 3 immediately super jumped back to Cuttlefish Cabin to see what happened to him, only to find it deserted. So she went to investigate the next Area without him.

(Part 4: Area 4); After arriving in Area 4, Agent 3 is contacted by Agents 1 & 2 who agree to help her in the Cap'n's place. Agent 2 then tells Agent 3 to find the next six Zapfish to open the fourth Boss Kettle. Agent 3 then proceed to the mission codenamed; Propeller-Lift Fortress and successfully reached and claimed it's Zapfish after a long climb and waves of Octarians. After claiming four of the remaining five Zapfish, Agent 3 enters the remaining mission only to find herself in Urchin Underpass and spots a massive Octarian that Agent 2 says that it's an Octostriker and warns her about the Inkstrikes it fires and advised her to use stealth tactics to avoid detection, but Agent 3 instead brute-forces her way through the Octarians' defenses while dodging the Inkstrikes and defeats it on the UFO to claim the Area's last Zapfish to open the Boss Kettle. When she entered it, she finds a monster-sized mechanical fish called the Octomaw and destroyed it by bombarding it's mouth with bombs. After saving it's Zapfish, Agents 1 & 2 checked in on her only for the mysterious villain to interupt again stating that all the Inklings' territory belongs to him. Agent 1 demanded him to give back the Great Zapfish and the Cap'n, but was met with silence. Agent 2 traced it's signal to the final Area. Agent 3 proceeded there immediately after the call.

(Part 5: Area 5); After arriving, Agent 2 told Agent 3 that the final Boss Kettle is high above the Area on a UFO and that there are six Zapfish left to save for it to open and activate the launchpad to it. She clears the mission codenamed; Pinwheel Power Plant and claims it's Zapfish and the four more afterwards. There was one Zapfish left and Agent 3 enters the final mission, only to find herself on Saltspray Rig and encounters an Octoling named Octrina who Agent 2 claims is the most elite of the Octolings and challenges her to a dual, but she is defeated due to Agent 3's superior skill. Then, the launchpad activates and the final Boss Kettle opens, and Agent 3 heads there to finish her mission and save the Cap'n and the Great Zapfish.

(Part 6: A Remixed Showdown); Finally, Agent 3 finds the Great Zapfish, but Cap'n Cuttlefish shouts to her that it was a trap planned by the Octarian leader; DJ Octavio, who uses the Great Zapfish to power his Octobot King and fights Agent 3. Later in the fight, Octavio's music suddenly stops, then the Calamari Inkantation plays while Agents 1 & 2 reveal their true identities; Callie & Marie of The Squid Sisters! Their song strengthens Agent 3 to put a stop to Octavio, finally defeating him with her Inkzooka. Freeing the Great Zapfish and Cuttlefish. Everyone heads home for the night while the Squid Sisters air a late night broadcast informing the Great Zapfish has returned to Inkopolis Tower and play Maritime Memory at the end. While Octavio is imprisoned in a snow globe under Cuttlefish's watch. But unbeknownst to any of them, Octolings were strangely disappearing from Octarian society due to listening to the Calamari Inkantation during Octavio's "concert". Including a famous high-ranking Elite Octoling engineer named "Marina Ida", who had a side-hobby for music. Also, some minor Octarian Soldiers and Octolings were disappearing in mass as well (by Commander Tartar). CHAPTER 3: The Inkopolis Plaza Open

(Year: 2016 M.E); It was a normal day in Inkopolis Plaza when Inkopolis News announced a big Tournament being held on that weekend called, "The Inkopolis Plaza Open". Being commented by Charles, April and the Squid Sisters. Which will stream live on TV and social media.

(Part 1: Turf War Seeding Matches); The Teams that entered the Tournament were; Orange, Blue, Pink, Green, Purple, Turquoise, Yellow and Lime, as the Tournament will be a Bracket of 8 Seeds. The commentators said the seeding matches will be Turf War on Urchin Underpass, with the matchups being; Orange vs. Blue, Pink vs. Green, Yellow vs. Turquoise and Purple vs. Lime.

Judd calculated the Turf scores as 94.5% for Orange Team, and 3.1% for Blue Team. The commentators then discussed about the match with Sally.

Callie then reveals that Orange Team has claimed the 1-Seed, while Blue Team gets the 8-Seed.

(Part 1.2: Pink vs. Green); Next up was the Pink vs. Green matchup. The Teams spawned in and headed out at the sound of the bell. Pink Team inks up their side of the Stage on the way to Mid. While Green Team set up their defenses at Mid and their Alleyway. A minute into the match, Pink Team initiates their Battle Tactic to distract Green Team as Rick attempted to flank Nattily, but Gwen caught sight of him and used her Inkzooka to splat him. With 1:30 left in the match Nattily and Andy both activate their Specials to begin their push into Pink Team's base. When they reached Pink's spawn with 1 minute left, they were met by a barrage of Specials but survived with the aid of Paul's Bubbler. Time soon ran out, and Judd calculated the Turf scores as 42.9% for Pink Team, and 55.7% for Green Team. Nattily discussed about the match with the commentators after the results reveal. She stated that she relies on her Teammates to help with defense and wait to strike at the right moment. Marie then reveals that Pink Team gets the 7-Seed, while Green Team claims the 4-Seed.

(Part 1.3: Yellow vs. Turquoise); Later, the Yellow vs. Turquoise matchup was about to start. The Teams spawned in and headed out at the sound of the bell. Turquoise Team quickly overwhelmed Yellow Team and pressured them into choke-points and ambushes for a majority of the match. But at the 1 minute mark, May chains her Bubbler with her Ava to splat most of Turquoise Team. The Teams landed in a stalemate in Mid for the last 30 seconds of the match, where Kyle fired off a last-second Inkstrike just as time ran out. Judd calculated the Turf scores once more to reveal that Yellow Team had lost with 35.9% to Turquoise Team's 40.3%.

(Part 1.4: Purple vs. Lime); It was time for the final match of the Seeding Matches! With the Purple vs. Lime matchup soon going underway. The Teams spawned in and headed out at the sound of the bell. Lime Team gained a quick lead over Purple Team, which lasted for half of the match. But Purple Team hesitated at the 1:10 mark where they activated all their Specials together to make a last minute counter-push. But it was met by Lime Team dodging them and answering back with their Specials. Time then ran out and Judd calculated the Turf scores and revealed that Purple Team lost with 35.6% to Lime Team's 64.4%. Adam discussed about the match with the commentators that his plan was to use their pressure-based playstyle to claim victory. April then reveals that Purple Team gets the 6-Seed, while Lime Team claims the 2-Seed. Now with all 8 Teams Seeded, the bracket-run of the Tournament was about to begin!

(Part 2: Splat Zones Quarterfinals); Charles announced the Stages for the Splat Zones Quarterfinals; Saltspray Rig, Port Mackerel, Mahi-Mahi Resort, Hammerhead Bridge and Moray Towers, along with all the tournament-phases will be in a "Best of 5" format and that the Teams who finished in 5th ~ 8th will get rewarded with 100,000 Cash. Then April discussed about the rules for Splat Zones while the Teams stratigized.

(Part 2.1: Orange vs. Blue - Round 1); It was Orange vs. Blue first, but before the first round, Hunter was getting frustratingly anxious about his Team's matchup against Orange Team again, when suddenly a mysterious hooded figure called to him from a back alley. The individual states to him that she is called "The Manipulator" and that she can help make his Team win for a payment of 1,000,000 Cash. Hunter got greedy and chose a cheat called "Insta-Ink". The Manipulator thanked him for doing business, but demanded him to promise not to mention her if he eventually got caught, which he annoyingly agreed to. Later, their match on Saltspray Rig started and as the bell sounded, the entire stage got covered in Blue ink in an instant, including the Zone. Orange Team was trudging through the ink as their own ink also turned Blue the moment it touched the ground. Blue Team won by Knockout but were disqualified for illegal sabotage and didn't get their prize, which granted Orange Team to move on to the Semi-Finals. The Tournament was temporarily postponed for a courtroom session to discuss Blue Team's interrogation and punishment. Hunter was sent to the witness stand and asked how his Team got access to the cheat. He only stated that he got it from an undisclosed source. The lawyers declared Blue Team guilty and announced that they will be completely banned from Turf War and ordered to return their belongings to Booyah Base by mail, be put on house arrest for two years with security, never to own or buy Turf War-grade Weapons and Gear as their probation and have no contact with Orange Team at all. This still didn't give Sally joy at all, as she still wanted them in jail for life. When the former-Blue Team members were being moved out of the courtroom, Hunter yelled at Sally saying "This isn't over".

(Part 2.2.1: Lime vs. Pink - Round 1); After the courtroom session, the tournament resumed with Lime and Pink Teams discussing strategies for their first match. The Teams then arrived at Saltspray Rig and headed out at the sound of the bell. Pink Team takes control of the Zone first and push into Lime Team's base but Frexa avoids them by Sharking by the Zone and takes control of it while they were pushing and fires her Killer Wail right at them from a flank, splatting all of them. Lime Team then started to push into Pink Team's base while activating their Specials to splat or deeter them away until the Lime Team's Zone-Counter reached 0 with 2:10 left on the the clock. Judd declared Lime Team the victor by Knockout over Pink Team's Score of 38. "So far, Lime Team is ahead 1-0 over Pink Team. They need to mount some kind of comeback soon!", stated April as the Teams went back to their tents to stratigize for their next match.

(Part 2.2.2: Lime vs. Pink - Round 2); Prepared for a easy victory, Adam was in high spirits for the next Round against Pink Team, which was going to be on Port Mackerel. Charles stated that the Stage has two Zones instead of one and that a Team needs to capture both of them to start depleting their Zone-Counter. The Teams spawn in and headed out at the sound of the bell to take the Zones. Both Teams take control of the Zones on their side of the Stage and then get into standoffs in Mid. At the 4 minute mark, Tina fires off an Inkstrike at Pink Team's Zone to take control of it. Frexa then fires her Killer Wail at Rick and Ovie, splatting them both. Adam orders his Teammates to initiate their Battle Tactic and start pushing into Pink Team's base. Later into the match at the 1:14 mark, just as Lime Team's Zone-Counter was about to reach 0, Josh fires off his Inkstrike at Lime Team's Zone to stop their Counter at 3, then Elly takes her Team's Zone through Left-Alley and splat both Adam and Frexa with a flank. Rick then places some Squid Beakons in Mid while he and his Team pushed into Lime Team's base with the help of his Killer Wail. The match then came into Overtime as Pink Team was still in control. Lime Team made a desperate push but get splatted by Ovie's Kraken and Elly's Inkzooka. Pink Team then took the lead to win the match. Judd declared Pink Team the victor with a Score of 98 to Lime Team's Score of 97. "That match was heated! Pink Team has tied it 1-1!", exclaimed Callie. Adam and his Team went back to their tent to stratigize for the next match and prevent Pink Team from making a comeback.

(Part 2.2.3: Lime vs. Pink - Round 3); Later, Rick was talking with Sally asking for strats to beat Lime Team on their favorite Stage in the next Round; Mahi-Mahi Resort. She just said to "give it your all" in a scolding tone. Then, the Teams arrived at the Stage to spawn in and start inking towards the Zone. Lime Team immediately takes the Zone and completely wipes Pink Team. Suddenly, when Lime Team's Zone-Counter reached 60, the water lowered to reveal more Turf. But later into the match, at the 2:10 mark, Pink Team simultaneously activate their Specials at the Zone and take it over, even splatting three Lime Team members in the process. Pink Team then took the lead with 1 minute left. Frexa snuck past Pink Team's assault and took back the Zone to bring the match into Overtime, but had to chip away at their Zone-Counter's Penalty. Rick charged back at the Zone while Josh fires an Inkstrike at it to take control of it to end the match. Judd declared Pink Team the victor with a Score of 95 to Lime Team's 90. "We might get an upset the way this Round is shaping up! Pink Team is up 2-1.", said Marie with glee. Adam was getting concerned and frustrated with a potential loss on his Team's hands. The only hope he wants, is to go out with a bang.

(Part 2.2.4: Lime vs. Pink - Round 4); Lime Team's Semi-Finals hopes was down to the wire going into the next match on Hammerhead Bridge. The match soon started and the Teams proceeded to Mid to take the Zone.

Time later ran out, and Judd declared Pink Team the victor with a Score of 50 to Lime Team's Score of 0! The commentators were shocked that Pink Team just upset Lime Team 3-1, granting them to move on to the Semi-Finals! Adam was disappointed, but congratulated Rick for his Team's wins. He and his Teammates then left for his apartment to watch the rest of the Tournament.

(Part 2.3.1: Turquoise vs. Purple - Round 1); After the shocking upset to Lime Team by Pink Team, Turquoise and Purple Teams were busy discussing strategies for their upcoming match on Saltspray.

(Part 2.3.2: Turquoise vs. Purple - Round 2); Mia was planning to clean-sweep Purple Team as they were getting ready for their next match on Port Mackerel.

When the bell sounded after they spawned, the Teams headed towards the Zone to capture it.

(Part 3.2.1: Turquoise vs. Green - Round 1); After Orange Team's truly dominant sweep over the now disbanded Pink Team, the last matchup of the Semi-Finals was about to begin! Turquoise and Green Teams were already underway in discussing strategies for their first match on Camp Triggerfish. The Teams spawn in and headed out at the sound of the bell to take control of the Tower. Mia takes control of it, right off the bat and then takes it barely past the Tower-Path's midway point, only for Nattily to fire her Killer Wail straight at the Tower to force Mia to jump off it and activates her Echolocator, only to then get immediately splatted by Paul with the help of his Disruptor. Andy and Gwen splat the rest of Turquoise Team while Nattily gets on the Tower to make their counter-push. Green Team push into Turquoise Team's Fort and Court to hold them back while charging their Specials. Time soon ran out with the Tower in Green Team's control. Judd declared Green Team the victor with a Score of 90 to Turquoise Team's Score of 51. The Teams then returned to Inkopolis Plaza to plan for their next match.

(Part 3.2.2: Turquoise vs. Green - Round 2); After a quick break, Turquoise Team and Green Team began planning their strategies for their next match on Piranha Pit. The Teams spawn in and headed out at the sound of the bell to try and take the Tower. Turquoise Team takes control of it and quickly dominated Green Team along the Tower-Path. But, just as Turquoise Team was about to get the Knockout, Nattily splats Mia off the Tower while Gwen single-handedly splats the rest of Turquoise Team with her Inkzooka. The rest of the match was back-and-forth control over the Tower until Andy and Paul splat most of Turquoise Team and take control of the Tower to bring the match into Overtime. But it was short lived when Mia splatted Nattily off the Tower and captured it at the Tower-Path's home-stretch to end the match. Judd declared Turquoise Team the victor with a Score of 99 to Green Team's Score of 83, to tie it up 1-1 going into the next match.

(Part 3.2.3: Turquoise vs. Green - Round 3); Currently tied going into the next match on Arowana Mall, Turquoise Team and Green Team were planning their strategies. The Teams soon spawned in and headed out at the sound of the bell. Turquoise Team takes the Tower easily and gets it close to the midway point in Green's Court, until Nattily fires her Killer Wail at the Tower to force them off and splat them in the process. Nattily then gets on the Tower while her Teammates pushed in to set up their defense. In the back and forth battle that soon followed, Green Team finally reached the Tower-Goal before they all got splatted by Turquoise Team's Specials. Judd declared Green Team the victor by Knockout over Turquoise Team's Score of 45. With the Scores now at 2-1 in favor of Green Team, the Round was getting heated up.

(Part 3.2.4: Turquoise vs. Green - Round 4); With the seemingly final match of the Semi-Finals about to start on Museum d'Alfonsino, Turquoise and Green Teams were already debating on their strategies. When the match started and the Teams spawned in and headed out to take control of the Tower, Green Team caught Turquoise Team by suprise and splatted them all aggressively. Nattily got on the Tower while her Teammates pushed ahead. Turquoise Team kept getting pummeled and splatted by Green's attacks and Specials from their Windmill. Soon Green Team successfully reached the Tower-Goal to end the match. Judd declared Green Team the victor by Knockout over Turquoise Team's Score of 0. With their win, Green Team moved on to the Grand Finals at 3-1. Mia wasn't upset about the loss and instead congratulated Nattily for her win and wished them good luck in the Finals against Orange Team. She and her Teammates then went to her apartment to watch the rest of the Tournament.

(Part 4: Rainmaker Grand Finals); It was time for the Grand Finals! Marie announced the final Stages for Rainmaker; Ancho-V Games, Flounder Heights, Kelp Dome, Bluefin Depot and Blackbelly Skatepark, and that the Teams that finished in 1st will get a trophy, a certificate and 40,000,000 Cash, while 2nd will get a certificate and 5,000,000 Cash respectively. Then Callie discussed about the rules for Rainmaker while the final two Teams stratigized.

(Part 4.1: Round 1); The first match of the Grand Finals was about to begin on Ancho-V Games, but Orange Team and Green Team were debating against each other on who will win the entire Tournament. Their discussion was resolved when they returned to their tents to plan their strategies. When the Teams spawned in, they headed out at the sound of the bell to break the Rainmaker Shield before their opponents do. Orange Team breaks it first, but Sally doesn't pick it up yet as her Team hasn't found their opening advantage. Nattily took that opportunity to pick up the Rainmaker and tries to head up on Orange Team's Fan-Lift, but is splatted by Dylan's Kraken. Sarah and Nick then splat the rest of Green Team and breaks the Rainmaker Shield for Sally to pick up and push. Nick and Sarah then both fire their Specials at Green's defense positions while Dylan escorted Sally with the Rainmaker up Green Team's Fan-Lift, where she fired off a Rainmaker shot at Nattily, splatting her. Then Sally and her Teammates pushed into Green's base, holding them back while Sally slam-dunks the Rainmaker on its Pedestal to end the match. Judd declared Orange Team the victor by Knockout over Green Team's Score of 8. With Orange Team currently 1-0, Nattily was flustered and planned to mix up her strategy to catch then off guard.

(Part 4.2: Round 2); The next Round of the Grand Finals was going to be on Flounder Heights, and the Teams were planning out their strategies while the commentators chatted about how the match might play out. Soon later, the match started and the Teams headed out to break the Rainmaker Shield before the other does. Orange Team successfully breaks the Shield first and splats three members of Green Team in the process, but Nattily super jumped back to her spawn to regroup. Sarah picks up the Rainmaker and attempts to bring it into Green's Pit-Area, but is forced back by Nattily's Killer Wail. Nattily then orders her Teammates to engage on Orange Team's position to ambush and successfully splat all of them. Gwen picks up the Rainmaker and pushes ahead with her Teammates defending her, but Orange Team held their ground and held Green Team back. This stalemate lasted long enough for the Rainmaker's Self-Destruct device to go off and splat Gwen to reset itself at Top-Mid, leading Green Team to fall back to reclaim it, while Orange Team pushed forward. But Green Team predicted them to attack aggressively and ordered Paul to activate his Bubbler and chain it with Andy to engage them. This caught Orange Team by suprise and they all got splatted. With time running out, Nattily picked up the Rainmaker and pushed forward with her Teammates and successfully take the lead mere seconds into Overtime. Judd declared Green Team the victor with a Score of 72 to Orange Team's Score of 71. The commentators were shocked that Green Team beat Orange Team on even ground to tie it up 1-1.

(Part 4.3: Round 3); The Teams were planning for their third match of the Grand Finals on Kelp Dome. The Teams spawn in and headed out at the sound of the bell to try and break the Rainmaker Shield in Top-Mid. Orange Team breaks it first and Nick picks it up and carries it across the grates leading into Green Team's base while they were engaging Sally and Dylan in Mid. Nattily and Andy found out what was happening and ambushed Nick, just as he was about to climb up their Rainmaker Pedestal, splatting him. Nattily then breaks its Shield again and picks it up to make a counter-push. Halfway into the match, Nattily, still holding the Rainmaker, attempted to push through Orange Team's Shrub-Alley but is splatted by Sally's Inkzooka. The remainder of the match was a stalemate and consant swapping of control over the Rainmaker. Time soon ran out and Judd declared Orange Team the victor with a Score of 98 over Green Team's Score of 52 to make it 2-1.

(Part 4.4: Round 4); The next Round of the Grand Finals was going to be on Bluefin Depot, and Orange Team planned to get a clean Knockout to ultimately win the Tournament, but Green Team wanted to prove her Team can compete with the best of the best. The match then started as the Teams spawned in and headed out to break the Rainmaker Shield. Orange Team breaks it first and completely splats Green Team to make a big push. Sally picked up the Rainmaker and charged into Green's base. But just as she was about to climb up their Rainmaker Pedestal, Nattily respawns back just in time to splat her. She orders her Teammates to push back while she carries the Rainmaker. What soon followed was a "come from behind" domination push by Green Team, as they constantly splatted Orange Team. Green Team then fired off all their Specials consecutively to make a last ditch path to Orange Team's Rainmaker Pedestal, which was successful and Nattily slam-dunks the Rainmaker on its Pedestal to end the match. Judd declared Green Team the victor by Knockout over Orange Team's Score of 90. The commentators were shocked by Green Team's "out of nowhere" display of skill to tie up the Grand Finals at 2-2. Furious, Sally shouted out to Nattily that "she'll pay for her Team's dumbfounding display of skill" in the Final Round.

(Part 4.5: Round 5); It has come to this massive moment, the fith and final match in the Grand Finals, with Orange Team against Green Team at each other's necks at 2-2, and the match taking place on Blackbelly Skatepark, which Charles mentioning that it was nearly banned for Rainmaker once. With the Teams spawned in, the bell sounded and they headed out to break the Rainmaker Shield on Top-Mid. Green Team broke it first and Andy picked it up and made a beeline for Orange Team's Rainmaker Pedestal. Just as he was climbing it, he gets splatted by Sally. The match then became a lengthy battle of attrition and control over the Rainmaker. It was getting down to the wire with 30 seconds left in the match. The Rainmaker was in Green Team's Half-Pipe, ready to be picked up. Nattily and her Teammates rushed towards it, but get ambushed by Sally who splats all of them with her Inkzooka. Sally then picked up the Rainmaker and charged in, followed by her Teammates activating their Specials to clear the path to Green's Pedestal. Sally then slam-dunks the Rainmaker on its Pedestal to end the match just as the match timer reached zero. The commentators were elated at the show of the greatest skill in Inkopolis, as Judd declared Orange Team the victor by Knockout over Green Team's Score of 95. With their Tournament win, Sally and her Teammates were awarded their prizes on the podium in front of Inkopolis Tower. Even though their fans were against it, Green Team disbanded, as Nattily also had a feeling that a new Green Team will appear in the future and be just as good as Orange Team.

BONUS CHAPTER: Inkopolis Founding Anniversary Festival

(Year: 2016 M.E); A few weeks before the Callie vs. Marie Splatfest, Inkopolis' mayor decided to hold a Turf War Festival in the Plaza as it was nearing the 100th Anniversary of the city's founding.

EPILOGUE: Callie vs. Marie

(Year: 2016 M.E); The Plaza was set up and the Callie vs. Marie Splatfest was about to begin! Callie announced the three Stages that will be used throughout the two days of the Splatfest: Kelp Dome, Moray Towers and Walleye Warehouse. Then Marie announced that Charles and April will commentate the matches and the Teams who will participate with other players: Yellow, Light Blue and Soda voted for Callie, while Orange, Turquoise and Lime voted for Marie. After two days of dozens-and-dozens of matches and hours of the Calamari Inkantation playing to them, the Splatfest was finally over. Everyone went home to rest up from all the exciting battles and music, but four hours later, Inkopolis News came on and the Squid Sisters announced that Judd had finally tallied the votes and win totals to reveal the victor as: Marie with a score of 360 to Callie's 340! Callie was disappointed, but Marie cheered her up and they enjoyed the rest of the night together, not knowing that their fame will blow sky-high...

(Aftermath); Due to the Final Splatfest, the Squid Sisters popularity skyrocketed overnight! Leading them to find separate carriers. Soda Team disbands. Renovation construction on Port Mackerel, Moray Towers, Kelp Dome, Blackbelly Skatepark, Arowana Mall, Piranha Pit, Camp Triggerfish, and Ancho-V Games start. Turf War lawyers made requests to find new Inklings to take the now empty Blue, Pink, Green, Purple and Soda Team colors due to the former four's popularity, but the Lime and Soda ink colors were discontinued, so Adam of Lime Team made a request to change his team's color to the new Lemon ink, because he still wanted to compete, which they agreed to. Then, the lawyers declared a complete ban of the current Special Weapons and told manufacturers to make new ones, against the public's outrage. Pearl and Marina meet up for the first time, and then form Off the Hook. Judd secretly clones himself to create Li'l Judd. But, the Plaza was soon becoming less popular due to the nearby run-down Square that Inkopolis Times' old headquarters; Deca Tower, was located, had began renovation construction to become a new Turf War hangout spot. This lead to Annie shutting down Cooler Heads due to getting flustered by shopping crowds, Crusty Sean also shut down Shrimp Kicks to buy a food truck. Also Sheldon shut down the Ammo Knights' Plaza location and moved to the Square to keep his business thriving with the Turf War League. Along with some new Inkling hair salons opening up.

Story (S2)
PROLOGUE: The Squid Sisters Stories

(Year: 2016~2017 M.E); The events of what happened to the Squid Sisters after the Final Splatfest happen, the Plaza's demise and Callie along with the Great Zapfish disappearing happen. (View the link to find out what else happens.)

CHAPTER 1: New Faces of the Square

(Year: 2017 M.E); A new area in Inkopolis has caught the attention of the Inklings; Inkopolis Square. Duke went there with his sister Emma and two of their friends to become a Team. Along with his lifelong friend Amy who brought her friends along too. When they arrived, they saw one new Team, Sky-Blue Team. While the rest were veterans in Orange, Light Blue, Lemon, Turquoise and Yellow Teams, but two pairs of Inklings in Pink and Purple ink weren't ready to participate yet as they aren't full Teams yet. Inkopolis News started on Deca Tower's jumbotron and the new hosts; Pearl & Marina started with breaking news. Callie of the Squid Sisters and the Great Zapfish have gone missing! Everyone again, ignored the news. Then, Marina announced the Turf War matchups which will be on The Reef, while the matchups are: Green vs. Blue, Orange vs. Light Blue, Lemon vs. Turquoise and Yellow vs. Sky-Blue.

(Part 1: Qualifying Rounds); Every newcomer Team was told about the rules and that they have to have specific clothing to participate and a unique weapon and pointed to the Square's new strip mall: The Gallaria. Everyone got what they wanted with no problems. Even the veteran Teams got new weapons and gear. Everyone got on the train to The Reef afterwards, with the matches going by swiftly. Afterwards, Duke had an urge to play more Turf War with his Team against the others to test his Team's skill, and asked each one to challenge him, which they all agree to. Then, everyone got apartments near the Square. Meanwhile, Duke invited Amy and Sally for dinner at the Crust Bucket and enjoyed the evening in preparation for their upcoming battles.

(Part 2: vs. Blue Team); The next day, Duke decided to take on the 'Rank S' Blue Team, lead by his long-time childhood friend Amy. Alex insisted that they take on their challengers by lowest to highest Rank. Duke agreed, but replied saying that he wants to get Amy's Team out of the way first, because he doesn't want to embarrass her. Suddenly, Amy came by to check what Duke was doing. He stated to her that he wants to fight her Team first due to his feelings for her. She agreed to his reasoning and requested to battle on Snapper Canal. The Teams spawned in and headed out at the sound of the bell. Duke told his Teammates to split up and ink different parts of the Stage to charge their Specials, while Brittney stayed at Green's Perch to ink Turf at a distance. Duke then engaged Phill in Mid, where Duke Dodge-Rolls to avoid Phill's launched Brella Shield to splat him. Meanwhile, Emma encountered Rider inking Blue's Pit-Area from his Ramp-Perch. He activates his Inkjet to avoid Emma's Fizzy Bomb and splat her and ink a bit more Turf with it before it ran out. Halfway into the match, Alex flanked Lea but got splatted by her. She then super jumped back to Blue Team's Spawn Point while Alex respawned, as per Blue Team's Battle Tactic: "Fair Game". Amy was busy inking her Side-Court until she spotted Duke heading towards her, so she threw her Toxic Mist to slow him down so she could splat him, which she heartbreakingly does. With 1 minute left in the match, Duke orders his Teammates to initiate their Battle Tactic: "Grim Onslaught" and push into Blue's base. Brittney first fires off her Bubble Blower so Alex would pop them with his Booyah Bomb, splatting both Amy and Rider in the massive blast. Then Duke fired his Tenta Missiles at the remaining Blue members and then charged in with Emma after she activated her Ink Armor for her Teammates to continue their attack. Amy and Lea then answered back with their own Tenta Missiles and Ink Armor, while Phill activated his Splat-Bomb Launcher in an attempt to force Green Team back. Time soon ran out and then Judd calculated Green Team's Turf-Score while Li'l Judd calculated Blue Team's Turf-Score. The results were that Green Team won with 50.4% to Blue Team's 49.6%. Duke gave his Teammates high-fives and Blue Team came over to then for handshakes for the good game and Amy to hug Duke for a fun match. When they returned to the Square, they were met by Sally who said that both of their Teams' skill look promising. And that Amy's Team is better than the previous Blue Team in both respect and skill in her tough tone. Amy thanked Sally for the remarks and stated that she was her reason in wanting to compete in Turf War. Sally just grunted back as she went to her apartment while Duke brought Amy to get a snack at the Crust Bucket in preparation for Green Team's next challenger: The hyper tech-newbies of Sky-Blue Team! But, the banned Blue Team is still in the city, and it's leader is planning a devious revenge scheme...

(Part 3: vs. Sky-Blue Team); After their bittersweet match with Blue Team, Green Team set their sights on their next challenger; the 'Rank C' Sky-Blue Team, lead by another newcomer Olivia. She requested that they battle on Starfish Mainstage and wished them good luck while drinking a soda and Duke waved back to her in return. The Teams spawn in and headed out at the sound of the bell to take control of Mid. Olivia ordered her Teammates to initiate their Battle Tactic: "Power Push" as they split up heading to Mid. Brittney sets herself up at Green's Perch to attack at a distance, while Duke and Emma ink their Court-Area in route to Mid and encounter Rebecca who rolls a Splat Bomb and fires off her Bubble Blower and throws another Bomb at it to instantly pop them, but Emma activates her Ink Armor in time to protect herself and her brother from the blast and tosses out a Fizzy Bomb to engage and splat her. But soon Vick ambushes behind them with a flank but is splatted by Brittney. Then at the 1:30 mark, Alex splats Orville in Sky-Blue's Court-Area, but is flanked by Olivia. Alex reacted quickly and activated his Booyah Bomb in time to survive. Olivia decided to super jump back to spawn to prevent her from getting splatted. At the 1 minute mark, Duke orders his Teammates to initiate their Battle Tactic and push into Sky-Blue Team's Pit-Area. Vick and Orville fire off their Tenta Missiles and Ink Storm respectively to deeter them away, but Brittney fires off her Bubble Blower through the ramp leading into Sky-Blue's Pit-Area for Duke and Emma to pass through, and fire shots and throw their Bombs onto Sky-Blue's base, until they are ambushed by Rebecca. But Emma splats her, only to find a super jump landing marker located where she was splatted. Brittney warned them that she saw that Olivia is jumping there with a Splashdown and tosses out her Splash Wall in front of them to block the coming explosion. Her prediction was true. Olivia landed with her Splashdown, but Duke and Emma survived due to Brittney's Splash Wall and splat Olivia. Alex then threw his Booyah Bomb into Sky-Blue Team's base, fully detonating just as time ran out. The Judds calculated each Team's Turf-Scores, and the results were that Green Team won with 63.1% to Sky-Blue Team's 36.9%. Olivia came over to Duke and his Team to congratulate and thank him for the white-knuckle match and offered to share with them an 8-pack of canned soda she brought to drink with her Teammates after the battle. Duke thanked her for the offer but kindly declined it. Even though he insisted to take a can to drink during his Team's lunch-break. Now that they have beaten the two rookie Teams, Green Team now has to fight veteran Teams from the Plaza days. With their next challenger: The chillin' & splattin' drifters of Light Blue Team!

(Part 4: vs. Light Blue Team); A while later, Green Team was gearing up for their next challenger; the 'Rank B-' Light Blue Team, lead by the veteran Hal. He claims to Duke that he won't easily lose due to his Team's higher experience and skill, and requested to battle on MakoMart. The Teams then arrived at the famous supermarket and spawned in. The bell rang and the Teams headed out. Duke got to Mid first and hid in his ink, where suddenly something was thrown at his position and was heading towards him. It was an Autobomb from Hal to find and attack his position. Duke hesitated and Dodge-Rolled away from the Bomb's blast and successfully splats Hal. Meanwhile, Emma was inking through Green's Aisle into Light Blue's Side-Court where she spots Lara inking there. She decides to attack her, but gets splatted by Lara's Ultra Stamp. Then, at the 1:30 mark, Duke fires off his Tenta Missiles to scatter Light Blue Team and orders his Team to initiate their Battle Tactic and charge into Light Blue's base. Green Team then fire off the rest of their Specials and push ahead. With 1 minute left, Hal orders his Team to initiate their Battle Tactic to potentially make a comeback. Ned and Marcy both activate their Specials to push Green Team back, but it made them charge up their Specials again. Brittney fires off her Bubble Blower and Alex throws another Booyah Bomb to pop them, splatting all of Light Blue Team in the blast, except Hal who escaped through his right Spawn-Ramp to toss a last-ditch Ink Storm. But Duke fired off his Tenta Missiles at Hal in the last few seconds of the match. Time soon ran out and the Judds calculated each Team's Turf-Scores, and the the results were that Green Team won with 73.1% to Light Blue Team's 26.9%. Duke was giving his Teammates high-fives for the win, where Hal came over to him and congratulated them for their win and stated that their upcoming challengers will be tougher and won't be as soft and easy as his, and left with his Teammates back to the Square. When Green Team returned to Inkopolis Square, they began to prepare for their next challenger: The skilled daredevil stunt-squids of Turquoise Team!

(Part 5: vs. Turquoise Team); An hour later, Green Team was stratigizing for their next challenger when suddenly, they heard a group talking about them nearby. Duke and Emma went to see who it was, and find out that it was none other than their next challenger; the 'Rank A' Turquoise Team, lead by the veteran Mia. She was surprised that they overheard her, stating to Duke that he only beat Light Blue Team so easily was due to Hal not being as strong of a competitor as her and the other veterans, and requested to battle on The Reef. When they arrived, the Teams spawn in and headed out at the sound of the bell and start inking towards the Bridge. Brittney and Duke got to the Bridge first, while Emma and Alex inked their Left & Right-Routes respectively and spot Jake and Della engaging them, but they were quickly splatted by Brittney with the help of Duke's Burst Bombs. Meanwhile, Chris was inking beneath the Bridge, where he is flanked by Alex, but he fights back and activates his Burst-Bomb Launcher to splat Alex, but he tosses out a Splat Bomb to force him to disengage. But Chris calls to Mia that he needs assistance, where she activates her Ink Armor to successfully help splat Alex. Then they suddenly hear an explosion in their Court-Area and that a member of Green Team was marked. It was Emma, who was attempting a flank but got triggered one of Della's Ink Mines. Seeing that her position was compromised, Emma decided to super jump back to spawn to regroup with Alex. Then the next minute of the match became a lengthy stalemate between the Teams due to Mia ordering her Teammates to initiate their Battle Tactic. Until, at the 1 minute mark, Duke targets all members of Turquoise Team with his Tenta Missiles to scatter them away so he can order his Teammates to initiate their Battle Tactic and start their assault. The rest of Green Team activate their Specials to hold their ground. Duke and Emma were holding down Turquoise Team's Car-Court where they were attacked by Della in her Baller. The squid-siblings tossed their Bombs and concentrated fire on Della to break the Special and splat her. Then Brittney fired off her Bubble Blower into Turquoise Team's Left-Alley from their Court-Area to push back Jake and Chris, but Jake threw out his Ink Storm to push Brittney back and defuse her Bubbles, but Alex threw a fully charged Booyah Bomb at them to truly pop them, and the resulting blast splatted both of them. With 15 seconds left, Mia activates her Ink Armor for herself and heads beneath the Bridge where she suddenly gets flanked by Duke who threw a Burst Bomb to break her Armor so Emma can splat her from behind with Dodge-Roll shots, just as time ran out. The Judds calculated each Team's Turf-Scores and revealed that Green Team won with 59.7% to Turquoise Team's 40.3%. Emma hugged her brother for the victory, while Mia thanked them for the "awesome, but hectic match". Duke just said "don't mention it" in a respectful way and headed back to the Square with his Team for lunch at the Crust Bucket in preparation for their next challenger: The comeback superstar kids of Yellow Team!

(Part 6: vs. Yellow Team); After their lunch-break, Green Team began planning their match with their next challenger; the 'Rank A+' Yellow Team, lead by the veteran May. She states to Duke that she thinks his Team looks promising and requests to battle on Manta Maria. The Teams then arrived at the dock housing the decommissioned yacht and spawn in. The bell sounded and the Teams headed out to ink Turf. Brittney and Ava set up their defenses at each other's Bunkers while Duke and May engage at the Center-Mast, with Emma assisting him with a Fizzy Bomb. May Dodge-Rolls away from it, but is pincered by the siblings and splatted. Then Kyle activates his Booyah Bomb at his Perch and tosses it at them, with Steve on their heels in his Baller. Ava then tries to snipe one of them but suddenly gets splatted by Alex with a flank. Alex then called Brittney to get on top of the wall of Yellow's Bunker while Duke and Emma escaped from the blast of Steve's Baller and splat him too. With 1:30 left, Brittney and Alex spot Kyle and May passing through their Deck-Area heading their way. May activated her Inkjet while Kyle readied a Vertical-Swing, but Brittney tossed out her Splash Wall in front of her while Alex charged up his Booyah Bomb. Successfully splatting both of them. With a numbers advantage and 1 minute left, Duke orders his Teammates to initiate their Battle Tactic and push into Yellow Team's base while firing off his Tenta Missiles. Brittney first fires off her Bubble Blower into Yellow's Pit-Area which Duke and Emma burst there on the way up to Yellow's Mast-Catwalk. Emma then activates her Ink Armor to head into Yellow's Spawn-Platform, but Ava retaliates with her Suction-Bomb Launcher, but they Dodge-Roll away from the barrage. Then Alex throws another Booyah Bomb at Steve and Kyle's position, which they answer back with their Specials. With 30 seconds left, May frantically activates her Inkjet to attack Green Team. She successfully splats Alex, but Duke splats her in return. Time soon ran out and the Judds calculated each Team's Turf-Scores. When the Teams saw the overhead view of the Stage, Green Team was shocked that Steve snuck past them and inked their Pit-Area and placed a Sprinkler in Mid on the way there. The results came in and revealed that Green Team won by a paper-thin margin of 50.6% to Yellow Team's 49.4%! Duke was elated that he won and congratulated his Teammates for popping off. May was disappointed but still thanked Duke for the match and states that he will be in for a real fight soon and headed back to the Square. Duke was more confident than ever and started stratigizing for their next challenger: The pressure spikers of Lemon Team!

(Part 7: vs. Lemon Team); An hour later, Green Team was ready to take on their penultimate challenger; the 'Rank S+ 6' Lemon Team, lead by the veteran Adam. He states that he has seen that their Turf War skills are impressive, but wants them to prove it and requests to battle on Humpback Pump Track. The Teams spawn in and headed out at the sound of the bell to take control of Mid. Duke and Emma arrived at there first, with Brittney on her Team's Perch while Alex headed through their Side-Track, but Duke and Emma get ambushed and splatted by Tina and Matt, Adam rushes at Brittney, splatting her too. Alex finds out he is to only one left and prepares to super jump back to spawn, only to get splatted by Frexa's Ultra Stamp. Finding out that Green Team has been completely wiped, Adam orders his Team to initiate their Battle Tactic and charge towards Green Team's Base to put pressure on them, while Matt throws his Ink Storm so it can pass over Green's Spawn-Platform while Tina activates her Inkjet to fly up to it and attack. The resulting skirmish lasted for a minute, until Duke realized that he and his Team were playing into Adam's hands, and ordered his Teammates to hold their ground and charge up their Specials. Duke fires off his Tenta Missiles at Tina and Matt, forcing them to retreat, but are cut off by a Fizzy Bomb thrown by Emma from Green's Foam-Pit, successfully splatting both of them. Alex then engaged Frexa who tried to charge at him with her Ultra Stamp, but Alex dodges and splats her. Now realizing that he is outnumbered, Adam super jumps back to spawn, while Duke orders his Teammates to initiate their Battle Tactic to make a comeback. Emma activates her Ink Armor while Alex and Britney fire their Specials onto Lemon Team's base, while Duke covers some more Turf to charge his Special and to get the win. Adam activates his Baller and charges at Emma and Alex, but they throw their Bombs and fire at it to destroy his Special before he could detonate it, and splat him. With 20 seconds remaining, Duke and his Teammates fire off their Specials one last time and successfully wipe Lemon Team just as time ran out. The Judds calculated each Team's Turf-Scores and revealed that Green Team won with 78.3% to Lemon Team's 21.7%. Duke's excitement was on fire seeing that they made a huge comeback and fist bumped his Teammates. Duke thanked Adam for the match, but he only golf-clapped and says that he respects his Team's aggression and patience, and states that Green Team now has to face their hardest test of skill yet. Duke knew what Adam was talking about. His Team now has to prepare to face their final challenger. The best of the best, the Inkopolis Plaza Open Champions: Orange Team! And Duke was really hyped up to battle them and show that his Team can compete with them.

(Part 8: vs. Orange Team); Half an hour later, Duke and Green Team were planning their strategy for their match against their final challenger; the 'Rank X' Orange Team, lead by the legendary veteran herself, Sally. She states to Duke with her stern tone that his Team may be a rising star, but are still rookies on the inside that she will completely destroy, and requested to battle on Port Mackerel. Duke got more motivated than ever after hearing her remark and prepared for the match. The Teams spawn in and headed out at the sound of the bell to take as much Turf as possible. Duke and Sally engaged each other in Mid and struggled to splat each other. Meanwhile, Emma was heading through one of the Side-Alleys in Mid when she suddenly gets ambushed by Sarah, but Emma tosses out a Fizzy Bomb at Sarah to force her back. Then, Alex decided to push in on his own with stealth, but is caught by Dylan's Point Sensor, as Nick attacked him with his Bubble Blower. Alex throws a Splat Bomb at the Bubbles as he super jumped back to spawn. The next minute of the match was a complete stalemate, with neither Team gaining a numbers advantage, even with the use of Specials. Now with a minute left in the match, with seemingly no advantage, Duke orders his Teammates to initiate their Battle Tactic to prepare their counter-push. Brittney fires off her Bubble Blower into Mid while Alex throws his Booyah Bomb at them. Duke fires off his Tenta Missiles, but before Emma activated her Ink Armor to aid Green Team's push, Sally suddenly ambushed and splatted the siblings, and then splatted Alex and Brittney. Sally then orders her Teammates to initiate their Battle Tactic to make their win inevitable. Undaunted, Green Team respawned and Duke tells Alex and Brittney to stay on their Spawn Point to charge their Specials, while he and Emma sneak through their Closed-Alleys to ink Turf without Orange Team knowing and flank them. They initiate their plan while Orange Team pushed into Green's base. But Dylan and Sarah find out what they were doing and attacked them individually with their Specials, but the siblings avoided the attacks and splatted them while inking Turf to charge their Specials. Duke then targets Sally and Nick with his Tenta Missiles while Emma activates her Ink Armor to attack them. But they knew that they would flank them and retaliated them, only for Brittney to fire her Bubble Blower at them so Alex could pop the Bubbles to splat them. But after they do, they find a super jump landing marker located where Sally was and they were targeted by Sally's Tenta Missiles, Duke looked up as he fled and saw Sarah was about to land with a Splashdown. Alex activates his Booyah Bomb and throws it just as Sarah landed and time ran out. The Judds calculated each Team's Turf-Scores and revealed that Orange Team won with 56.8% to Green Team's 43.2%. Duke was mad that he lost and headed back to the Square, with Emma and Alex trying to calm him down. But when they returned, they saw Amy with an excited and joyful face, running towards Duke. Duke tried to hide his anger in front of her, when she stated that she was monitoring Green Team's battle stats on SplatNet from her phone after her Team's match with his and revealed that even though Green Team lost against Orange Team, they had reached 'Rank X' in a single day! Duke was amazingly shocked by the news and he cheered up again while his Teammates congratulated their accomplishment. Soon Sally came over to them and said that she welcomes Green Team to the League and truly recognizes Green Team as a worthy competitor. Duke hugged Amy for making the end of his day better, and everyone then headed to their apartments for the night, but Duke wondered while he was brushing his teeth; "why weren't there any Pink and Purple Teams for me to face? Hopefully I'll be able to fight them soon". Little did he know that the Teams he was thinking about didn't actually have suitable leaders yet, and that something drastic was about to happen...

CHAPTER 2: Hunter's Revenge

(Year: 2017 M.E); Hunter and his friends, Cara, Xavier and Justice are in their apartment rooms, bored with no longer being able to compete in Turf War due their ban's orders from years back. Hunter was frustrated at his boredom, so he contacted his gang about a revenge plan, to rob the Gallaria and compete in Turf War secretly. Justice was against the idea, but Hunter forced her to with a threatening tone. He then ordered black hoodies and gloves online with express one day delivery for them and started their scheme that night. They broke into each shop and stole what interested them and some Ink Tanks. The following day, they arrived at the Square only to be arrested for the robbery they did last night and violating their probation. But Sally suddenly asked the officers that she challenge Hunter in a Turf War before they're fully arrested. They hesitated, but agreed. Hunter then yelled at Sally that he "will finally get revenge" and requested to battle on Walleye Warehouse. The battle commenced and the original Blue Team was completely dominated with 1.2% to Orange Team's 98.8%. After the battle, Hunter and his gang were arrested. Then, in the courtroom, they were declared guilty and sentenced to life in prison. Sally was there and when she heard the sentence, she was excited and had a smile on her face and cheered happily, showing joy once again. When Hunter was being lead out of the courtroom, Sally gave him one last kick in his crotch, shouting "You deserved it" to him. She was so happy, she bought Crust Bucket meals for Green and Blue Team. But it was short because she got an urgent phone call (from Cap'n Cuttlefish saying he needs her for a patrol at Tentacle Cape) and had to leave immediately. Everyone was wondering what it was about.

CHAPTER 3: Octo Canyon

(Year: 2017 M.E); Duke was in high spirits after a solo Turf War match when he noticed a strange Inkling woman in a kimono staring at him on a manhole. He decided to follow her through and finds himself in Octo Canyon, an area near Octo Valley and far away from Inkopolis. He spots the Inkling woman who introduces herself as Marie of the Squid Sisters, but Duke says he never heard of them, which shocked her. She told him that she thinks it was the Octarians who restole the Great Zapfish and kidnapped Callie. Duke volunteered to help her and Marie gave him the new Hero Suit and Hero Shot and dubs him Agent 4, then he sets out with Marie's guidance.

(Part 1: Tentakeel Outpost); Marie tells Agent 4 that the Sector they are in is called Tentakeel Outpost and that it is the New Squidbeak Splatoon's lookout spot in the Canyon. She then tells him about the hidden entrances to the Octarian hideouts containing the Zapfish required to open the Boss Kettle in order to proceed, in which Agent 4 finds the first one codenamed; Return of the Octarians, and enters it. Inside, Agent 4 fights his way through the scouts of Octotroopers, with Marie telling him how to defeat them. After encountering and defeating a large group of Octotroopers guarding a vault with Tenta Missiles, Agent 4 rescues the first Zapfish. Marie congratulated him when he returned and pointed toward the remaining two entrances, which he saves their Zapfish easily. With the three Zapfish, the Boss Kettle opens up and Agent 4 enters it, only to see a Zapfish get snatched by a large Octo tentacle in a pool of Octarian ink. Then, the Octo Oven rises out and attacks. Marie tells Agent 4 that to defeat the Oven, he needs to Splat the tentacle on top of it. Agent 4 figures out that he needs to swim and climb up it's loaves and walls while dodging it's glazing arm and the Octobread and successfully destroys it and saved the Zapfish it stole. Afterwards, Marie contacts Sheldon to ask him to loan his top-secret Hero Weapons, which he eagerly agrees to. When Agent 4 returned, the barrier blocking the path to the next Sector shattered. Marie went to scout ahead and Agent 4 followed her.

(Part 2: Suction-Cup Lookout); When Agent 4 arrived, Marie tells him that the Sector they are in is called Suction-Cup Lookout which is an old Octarian warehouse and the Boss Kettle there needs six Zapfish to open. Agent 4 enters the first mission codenamed; Enter the Octohurler, and enters it for Sheldon to loan him the Hero Roller to deal with the Octohurlers. When he retrieved the Zapfish, he overheard Marie say that the Hero Roller was Callie's, he told her that he promises to find Callie and seeks out the next mission codenamed; Octozepplin Invasion, and to his disappointment (and Marie's excitement), Sheldon loans him the Hero Charger to reach the Grapplinks and take out the swarms of Octozepplins easier. Agent 4 eventually got the Zapfish and found the next mission codenamed; The Octopark, and was elated that Sheldon had loaned him the Hero Dualies! He easily saves the mission's Zapfish along with the last three mission's to open the Boss Kettle. Agent 4 enters with the Hero Roller only to encounter the Octo Samurai who challenges him to a dual, as he claims Agent 4 interupted his meditating. Agent 4 defeats him and rescues the Zapfish Octo Samurai used to power his Octocycle/Roller. Then Marie called him to see how he was when their conversation was momentarily interupted by a mysterious voice. Marie thought it was magnetic interference and went to scout the next Sector.

(Part 3: Beaker's Depot); Agent 4 arrives and spots Marie and she tells him that the Sector is called Beaker's Depot, which is an Octarian cargo yard. Agent 4 then goes toward the Sector's first mission codenamed; Octoseeker Shakedown, where Sheldon loans him the Hero Slosher. He dodges the sights of the Octoseekers and claims the Zapfish, then seeks out the next one. Which is codenamed; Dancing Floors, where he was surprised that Sheldon has loaned him the Hero Splatling to take on the Octosnipers and open paths by shooting Ink Switches. He saves the Zapfish guarded by Flooders and then gets the four remaining mission's Zapfish afterwards to open the third Boss Kettle, which he enters with his Hero Dualies to take out the new-and-improved Octostomp. After redefeating it and claiming it's Zapfish, his call with Marie was interupted again. This time the voice demanded that they leave. Agent 4 threatened to "mess them up", but he was met with silence on the other end. After that, Marie went ahead again to scout the next Sector.

(Part 4: Slimeskin Garrison); Agent 4 arrives and meets Marie again and she says that the Sector is called Slimeskin Garrison, which was an Octarian military academy. Agent 4 finds the next mission codenamed; The Experimentorium, where Sheldon loans him the Hero Blaster which he needed to solve the mission's puzzles, and he eventually claims it's Zapfish. Then he finds the next mission codenamed; Propellerland, where Sheldon loans him the Hero Brella to solve puzzles with it's shield. Which he succeeds in claiming it's Zapfish along with the remaining four mission's Zapfish to open the fourth Boss Kettle where Agent 4 encounters and fights the Octo Shower in a difficult fight with the Hero Charger, but succeeds in defeating it. Afterwards the mysterious voice returns and warns them to get out of the Canyon because of it's dangers, but Marie recognized the voice as Callie's and was concerned about her, then tells Agent 4 that she is Agent 2 while Callie is Agent 1 and Sally of Orange Team being Agent 3 along with Cap'n Cuttlefish before going to the bottom of the Canyon toward the final Sector.

(Part 5: Cephalon HQ); Agent 4 finally reached the bottom of the Canyon to see a massive Octarian complex that Marie tells him is called Cephalon HQ and tells him that Callie and the Great Zapfish are somewhere in the large pit in the area that needs the last six Zapfish to access. Sheldon flies his drone to his last Hero Weapon for the next mission codenamed; Underground Expressway, where Agent 4 is loaned the Herobrush to deal with the swarms of Octarians. He stressfully took out the Octocommanders riding Industrial Squee-Gs and climbed them to get the Zapfish. He then claimed four of the remaining Zapfish and then enters the final mission with his Hero Dualies only to find himself in Musselforge Fitness and, for the first time, encounters Octrina who now wields an Octo Blaster, daring him to fight her, which he accepts and defeats her and claims the last Zapfish. Finally, the pit opens and a UFO with the final Boss Kettle rises from it. Marie mutters to Agent 4 who prepairs to enter, telling him to be careful. Not knowing what lies in wait for them...

(Part 6: Marie vs. Callie); Agent 4, sticking with his Hero Dualies enters the final Boss Kettle to find spectator stands packed with all kinds of Octarians and spots Callie on a center platform, but he and Marie find out she has been brainwashed by DJ Octavio with Hypnoshades who uses the Great Zapfish to power his new Octobot King 2 and fights Agent 4. Marie later comes as backup on a flying concert truck driven by Sheldon. She snipes off Callie's Hypnoshades with special "Low-Tide ink" to bring her back to her senses. But the ink barely breaks her hypnosis, so Marie plays the Spicy Calamari Inkantation on her boombox which frees Callie who jumps to her cousin to sing along. The song strengthens Agent 4 when Sheldon gives him a failsafed Rainmaker and uses it to finally defeat Octavio once again. That afternoon, Off the Hook announces that Callie and the Great Zapfish have returned. Pearl got song requests for the occasion and the Squid Sisters' Fresh Start was picked from Duke's request. Later, Callie & Marie hang out at Cuttlefish Cabin to keep an eye on Octavio (now back in the snow globe) until Cap'n Cuttlefish and Agent 3 return. While even more Octolings were fleeing the Octarian Army from listening to the Inkantation.

INTERLOGUE: An Octoling's (Somewhat) Fresh New Start

(Year: 2018 M.E); It was a year after DJ Octavio's defeat at the hands of Agent 4, in a secret Octarian military base in the forests outside of Octo Canyon, where Octrina and a Octoling-in-training, named Jen were having a break at the Octo Barista. During their conversation, Octrina noticed something was wrong with Jen. She told her that she's concerned about the Zapfish being abused and the Octoling boys being mistreated and is wondering about other Octarians in the Army strangely disappearing. Octrina told her that female Octolings are regarded as higher soldiers, while the males are servants of the army and she too doesn't know where the deserters went. What Octrina didn't know, was Jen was having a battle in her mind with the Calamari Inkantation she heard during Octavio's concert almost freeing her soul, which was also the cause of the disappearing Octolings. Jen decided to go back to her barrack but the Inkantation freed her on the way there, so she instead went to the armory and got an Octo Shot and went into the forest. But she stepped on a branch that got the attention of Cap'n Cuttlefish and Agent 3 who were nearby coming back from their recon mission at Tentacle Cape. Agent 3 attacked Jen who took cover and said she doesn't want to fight. But when they meet face to face, they were all attacked and knocked unconscious by a mysterious group. They were sent to a mysterious undersea test facility when Agent 3 awoke and escaped. The unknown group didn't care about her, so they continued with the Cap'n and the Octoling.

CHAPTER 4: Octo Expansion

(Year: 2018 M.E); An Octoling wakes up and meets Cap'n Cuttlefish who says he heard her humming the Calamari Inkantation while unconscious. He befriends the Octoling and asks for her name, but the Octoling says she only knows her name as Jen and nothing else. Cuttlefish figures out that she has amnesia and tells her about him, the Octarians, the Inkantation's brainwash breaking effects and how they got to this mysterious place. They head out through the Abandoned Station and enter Central Station. Jen spots a Telephone and it says that she is Subject No. 10,008 and says they are in Deepsea Metro and her mission is to complete tests to enter the "Promised Land" to be free. It gives her the CQ Card and CQ-80 when a subway train arrives and its conductor, C.Q. Cumber welcomes them aboard and teaches Jen, who Cuttlefish now calls Agent 8 because he thought No. 10,008 was too long, the CQ System to find the four Thangs needed to go to the "Promised Land" that are guarded by Bosses.

(Part 1: Lines A & C); Agent 8's first test was in Fake Plastic Station, where she had to get to the goal by going through groups of Octolings. She tries talking to them at Cuttlefish's word, but they talked back at her in a weird way and started attacking her. Agent 8 successfully takes them out to pass the test. Afterwards, Cuttlefish received a transmission from his radio receiver. He thought it was Agent 3 but it was Pearl & Marina that answered instead. Marina tells them they found it while hanging out on Mount Nantai. Cuttlefish brought them up to speed on their situation and the duo agreed to help Agent 8 with the rest of Line A's tests which unlocked access to Line C. Agent 8's next challenge there to open the rail lines leading to the Thangs was Move It Move It Station, where she had to avoid taking damage from enemies in the given time. She clears it after three retries and proceeded to pass the rest of the Line's tests to access Line B. Afterwards, a strange individual comes aboard, identifying himself as Iso Padre, who was a former test subject and tells Agent 8 that she has a chance to reach the "Promised Land" and will encourage her to do so. Cap'n Cuttlefish sees him as a bit sketchy but a nice guy and chats with him on the way to the next Test Station.

(Part 2: Lines B & F); After half an hour, the train arrives on Line B and it's first test; Rad Ride Station, where Agent 8 needed to ride the Tower to the enemy base. After she exits the turnstile, Pearl recognized the Stage as Snapper Canal and told Agent 8 about what Tower Control was and she succeeds after struggling a bit with some enemy Octoling attacks. Then she proceeded to clear the rest of the Line's tests to gain access to Line F, then C.Q. Cumber notified that the first Thang is at it's end. Agent 8 then passes all the Test Stations until she encounters the first Boss; Octostomp Redux in Drop the Bass Station, who guards the Foundational Thang. Agent 8 defeats it and obtains the first Thang to bring back to the Telephone at Central Station. But when they arrived they find an Octoling Boy begging the Phone about something. When Cuttlefish asked them what's going on, the Phone says that the Octoling Boy wasn't supposed to arrive and was erroneously referred to as No. 10,008. But Agent 8 told it that he can come with them to reach the "Promised Land". The Octoling Boy says his name is Jeff and comes aboard to help find the remaining Thangs.

(Part 3: Lines D & I); After an hour, the train arrives on Line D and it's first test; Targetbuster Station, where all the target-crates had to be destroyed in the time limit. Jeff decides to takes it on with and Octobrush, but it took him three tries to figure out how to clear it, and finally succeeds. He then passes the rest of the Line's tests to access Line I, where C.Q. Cumber detected another Thang. Jeff passes all the Test Stations until he encounters the Octo Oven XXL in Toastmaster Station, which he defeats easily with the Octobrush to obtain the Precision Thang. On the way back to Central Station, Agent 8 complements Jeff's great skill with an Octobrush. He replies that it's one of the things he still remembers about himself. After arriving and dropping off the second Thang, they head back out to get the remaining Thangs.

(Part 4: Lines G & E); After a while, the train arrived on Line G and it's first test; Iceman Station, where the goal had to be reached with an Inkjet. Agent 8 decides to do it and surprisingly clears it first try. She then passes the rest of the Line's tests to access Line E, where C.Q. Cumber once again detected another Thang. Agent 8 breezes through it's tests, until encountering the Octo Shower Supreme in Cool Your Jets Station where she had to fight it with an Inkjet and easily finished it off to claim the Surrounding Thang. On the way back to Central Station, Marina notifies them that she and Pearl opened up a Chat Room that Agent 8 and Jeff can access through the CQ-80, while Cuttlefish used his cellphone. After dropping of the third thang, the Telephone says that the final Thang is in reach and sarcastically tells them to slack off before hanging-up.

(Part 5: Lines J & H); Presumably the last time riding the train, the group finally arrives on Line J and it's first test; Girl Power Station, where the orb must be defended from enemy Octolings in the time limit. Agent 8 and Jeff decide to enter together and take on an Elite Octoling codenamed: Subject No. 1 and her Sanitized Squad, whom they defeat swiftly due to their teamwork. Then Jeff takes on the rest of the Line's tests to unlock the final rail line; Line H, where C.Q. Cumber pinpoints the final Thang. Jeff passes the remaining tests until encountering Revenge of Octo Samurai in Whack-Fu Station who becomes quite a challenge as Jeff has to fight it in the Baller, but eventually defeats him to take the Sealing Thang. With the surface certainly within reach, Cap'n Cuttlefish was getting concerned about where Agent 3 was and what she was doing.

(Part 6: The Escape!); With all 4 Thangs, the Telephone says it is time for them to enter the "Promised Land" and uses the Thangs to make the entrance and leads them inside only for Marina to figure out that the Thangs were for a giant blender as the Telephone activates it to slaughter them into paste. Marina frantically activates the SOS on Agent 8's CQ-80 only for Agent 3 to smash through the glass ceiling to punch the Phone and destroy the blender to free the trio just in time. But she knocked herself unconscious from the rescue, then Marina hacks the Employee Model CQ-80 Agent 3 had so they can escape the Metro. Agent 8 goes ahead but Jeff and Cuttlefish find out that she's unarmed, so Jeff finds a Splattershot for her along with an Octobrush for himself, but Agent 8 got an Octo Shot during her escape. When she was in the Intestinal Phase, the Telephone reawakens and does something to Agent 3, who then does something to Jeff and the Cap'n. Agent 8 and Off the Hook don't hear from them until they reach the Spinal Phase where on the elevator, Agent 8 spots Agent 3 in front of Cap'n Cuttlefish and Jeff both tied up hanging from a UFO to find out that the Phone corrupted her mind and making her fight her with her onslaught of Specials. Agent 8 came out on top and freed Agent 3 who was still unconscious, then freed the Cap'n and Jeff to finally reach the surface where Off the Hook picked them up via helicopter. Cuttlefish and Pearl were rapping together when Agent 8 and Marina notice the platform they were on rising out of the water to reveal a massive human statue. Cuttlefish noticed the Phone in the statue's eye while it says it's real name is Commander Tartar, an AI ment to carry humanity's history and knowledge to the next species, but says it was disgusted by their evolution, wars and fashion so much that it wanted to annihilate them and recreate all life on Earth with the primal ooze it gathered from the 10,007 test subjects it slaughtered and activates it's ultimate weapon; the statue itself; NILS. Armed with a massive cannon in it's mouth that will destroy the entire world at full charge. Marina makes a plan to stop the evil AI: that Agent 8 manually detonate the prototype Hyperbombs she'll place on the statue in the three minutes the weapon has to fully charge via solar energy. Agent 8 super jumps into the Turf War that will save the world, but after she detonates the first set of Hyperbombs, hatches open up on the statue and some strange looking Octolings come out and start inking where the Bombs were placed. Marina shockingly finds out that the statue's charge time decreased, Marina saw this and theorized that the Octolings' ink was somehow absorbing solar energy and transferring it into the statue. Agent 8 was unsure on what to do, until Jeff super jumped to her saying that he will take care of the Octolings while she detonates the upcoming Hyperbomb sets. But with each set of Bombs detonated, more Enemy Octolings came to help their master. Agent 8 and Jeff detonate all the Hyperbombs and splat all the Octolings with seconds to spare and jump back to the helicopter where Marina notices that the weapon isn't at full charge, but Tartar blurts out that it decides to fire anyway, but Pearl used her Princess Cannon with the loudest Booyah she ever shouted to successfully counter NILS' cannon blast and obliterates the statue with Tartar along with it. With the world saved, Agent 3 regains consciousness and Agent 8 helps her to her feet with a smile and tells her and Jeff her real name. Off the Hook drops them off at Inkopolis Metro and gave Jen and Jeff Gallaria catalogs and funds to go to Inkopolis Square and enjoy their new lives, while Cuttlefish and Agent 3 return to the Squid Sisters at Cuttlefish Cabin. But Cuttlefish went back to Deepsea Metro a few weeks later to see how everyone was doing after Tartar's demise.

CHAPTER 5: Salmon Run

(Year: 2018 M.E); Duke and Amy are hanging out in the Square with their new friends, Jen and Jeff, when Inkopolis News came on announcing that Grizzco Industries is now hiring as a part-time job. The four decided to head to Grizzco and find Mr. Grizz who accepts them as employees and sends them into training, then their first shift at the Spawning Grounds. Duke has his signature Splat Dualies, Jen has a Splattershot, Amy has her Jet Squelcher and Jeff has his Octobrush while they all change their ink color to Blue, but were struggling with the objective. When they got back, they find another crew who got over 100 Golden Eggs with weapons they never seen before. Vent, who lead the crew of Grizzco's best Profreshionals, taunted them for how "wimpy" their first shift was. Duke got pissed-off by the joke and demanded them to a Turf War match after he and his friends try another shift, in which they have more success this time, getting 58 Golden Eggs and then got their bonuses afterwards. Then they waited for Vent's Team in the Square, and when they arrived, he and his Team had regular Weapons and accepted his challenge on New Albacore Hotel. Duke's Team came out on top with 69.4% to Team Grizzco's 44.6%. After the match, Vent apologized to Duke and his friends for dissing them after seeing their true skill and then headed back to Grizzco Industries. Duke and his friends decided that Grizzco was suspicious and not for them, and focused more on Turf War.

CHAPTER 6: The X-TREME Platinum Cup Championship

(Year: 2019 M.E); It was a usual day in Inkopolis Square when Olivia of Sky-Blue Team told everyone there about a team that appeared out of nowhere, and have won all their Ranked battles by knockout in less than 45 seconds called: "Team Meta". The other teams challenged them to Turf War on social media and told them they wanted to each battle on their favorite Stages. When they met them in person, their leader, Valkyrie, says that they accept their challenges to prove her Team's unbeatable status. Turns out that she was right, her team destroyed them with 99.9% to 0.1% against all of them. Afterwards, Inkopolis News started and announced a new Tournament that weekend: "The X-TREME Platinum Cup Championship". Being commentated by Off the Hook and the Squid Sisters, while Cody and Ashley will interview the Teams, and it will stream live on TV and social media.

(Part 1: Seeding Matches); The Teams that entered the Tournament were, Green, Pink, Orange, Blue, Turquoise, Sky-Blue, Grizzco and Meta, as the Tournament will be a Bracket of 8 Seeds.

EPILOGUE: Chaos vs. Order

(Year: 2019 M.E); The Square was set up and the Chaos vs. Order Splatfest was about to begin! Marina announced that the Splatfest will be three days long and that the first day will have the twelve top Turf War Teams' favorite Stages in: Ancho-V Games, Inkblot Art Academy, Port Mackerel, MakoMart, Snapper Canal, Sturgeon Shipyard, Humpback Pump Track, The Reef, Manta Maria, Starfish Mainstage, New Albacore Hotel and Goby Arena, while having The Spicy Calamari Inkantation play. Then the second day will have the seven community-voted Shifty Stations in: The Secret of S.P.L.A.T., Zone of Glass, Wayslide Cool, Sweet Valley Tentacles, The Ink is Spreading, The Maze Dasher and Windmill House on the Pearlie, while having Ebb & Flow play. Finally, the third and final day will only have the newest Shifty Station: MC.Princess Diaries, while Fly Octo Fly ~ Ebb & Flow (Octo) plays. Then Pearl announced that Cody and Ashley will commentate the matches and the Teams who will participate with other players: Green, Blue, Turquoise, Yellow, Sky-Blue and Grizzco voted for Chaos, while Pink, Orange, Light Blue, Purple, Lemon and Meta voted for Order. After three days of hundreds of battles and hours of awesome music playing to them, the FinalFest was finally over! Everyone was exhausted and went home to rest up from all the epic battles and music. Then, the next morning, Inkopolis News came on and Off the Hook announced that the Judds had finally tallied the votes, wins and clout totals to reveal the victor as: Chaos! Claiming all three categories with close scores! Marina was disappointed and concerned if Off the Hook will break-up, but Pearl said she wants to stay together with her to try different music genres. Marina got a bit emotional, and Pearl cheered her up and promised that they will still be best friends to the bitter end. Marina wiped her tears and thanked Pearl for her compassion. And they enjoyed the rest of the week at New Albacore Hotel for a "girl's outing" as they acquired a week off due to the FinalFest.

(Aftermath); Justice is released from jail after too many panic attacks, so she could secretly go to emotional-therapy and amend her misbehavior. Also, Yellow and Light Blue Teams surprisingly disband, Lemon ink is discontinued which lead to Lemon Team disbanding as well, Vent disbands Team Grizzco to recruit new members for Grizzco's next hiring season, while Sydney and Dane of Pink Team, along with Bill and Nana of Purple Team shockingly ditch their teammates. Jen and Jeff, concerned if their teams will be expelled, asked Turf War lawyers if it is OK to join together with Nate and Janis to continue as Pink Team, which they agreed to. As a result, the lawyers again sent out requests to find new Inklings (and Octolings) to take those Team Colors. But, a new city in a far-off region with an epic Turf War league is long on the horizon...

BONUS CHAPTER: MC.INFERNO

(Year: 2020 M.E); Getting a bit bored, Sally decides to try a DJ/Rapper career under the name: "MC.Inferno", with Off the Hook as her tutors. She gained some popularity from her hit single: "The Scorch of Chaos", but she thought the career didn’t fit with her, and quit to continue her legendary Turf War career. But she still continues to rap for her Team to get fired up for battle, along with parties for friends. But got a text message from Cap'n Cuttlefish who says that he's retiring and chose her to take his place as Captain of the New Squidbeak Splatoon.

Story (S3)
PROLOGUE: [NAME UNKNOWN]

CHAPTER 1: Splatsville Uprising

(Draft); The Inklings and Octolings of Inkopolis have gotten word of a new city in a far-off region: The "City of Chaos" Splatsville in the harsh Splatlands, which is starting a new-overhauled Turf War league. The six Teams in Green, Sky-Blue, Pink, Turquoise, Orange and Blue bought plane tickets for the trip to Splatsville, but they had to hike through the desert to a train station due to Splatsville not even having an airport. After 6 hours of walking (and some complaining) they arrived at the station and boarded the train to rest through the night and arrived that morning. Then, they arrived at the city's main Turf War hangout spot and spotted six more Teams in Yellow, Purple, Indigo, Lime, Neon Yellow and Light Blue. The starting matches of Splatsville were: Yellow vs. Purple, Green vs. Sky-Blue, Pink vs. Turquoise, Orange vs. Indigo, Blue vs. Lime and Neon Yellow vs. Light Blue on Scorch Gorge. The Teams headed their on ATVs. It was Yellow vs. Purple first, but halfway through the match, Purple Team was falling behind and the Team's Leader, Connor was freaking out and shockingly Super Jumps out of the battle, leading to the match being canceled. When everyone got back, they see Ammo Knights surrounded by police officers trying to stop Connor from continuing his havok, which they succeed and arrest him for aggravated arson of a business. The other members of Purple Team, Ally and Zack were humiliated so much that they demanded Turf War lawyers to ban Connor along with Lucy off the Team because of their inappropriate sportsmanship and attitudes, which they agreed to and started advertising for new members for the Team. The other matches continued afterwards, along with the Yellow vs. Purple matchup being delayed.

CHAPTER 2: A Rogue's Redemption

(Draft); It was a week after the "Connor-Fiasco" and then Turf War lawyers announced the new members for Purple Team: Justice and Kit. But Sally didn't take the news well and attempted to punch her in the face only for Justice to block it with her bare hands, explaining that she regretted her past actions and wants to redeem herself with a new Team. Sally then angerly asked her why she wasn't in jail in Inkopolis, which Justice explains that the jail security thought that the conditions and atmosphere of the complex, along with her having too many panic attacks, lead her to being released and ordered to join emotional-therapy groups. She also explains that Hunter was constantly getting into fights with violent inmates, with one in particular: "Terror Finblade", who got him severely injured. When she described his injuries, Sally got a joyful smirk on her face and forgave Justice for her old antics. Then, the long awaited Yellow vs. Purple matchup was ready. With Justice doing really good in the match in terms of composure and skill. That night, after the match, Sally, Justice and Lisa (or Ethan) went on a stroll around Splatsville where suddenly they heard someone yelling profanity and threats toward them as they entered a back alley. They turned around only to see Lucy, filled with rage, approach them holding a knife and a sliced lemon, shouting that they will all share the same fate as her ex, as payback for "ruining her Turf War career", and charged at them. But Sally defended her new friends by hitting Lucy with a roundhouse-kick to her face. A police officer arrived to find out what happened, and arrested Lucy for attempted felony assault and sentenced to 10 years in prison. After the courtroom session the following evening, Sally, Justice and Lisa (or Ethan) decided to get lunch together, but Lisa (or Ethan) couldn't join them because she (he) was out salvaging in the desert for the night, so Sally and Justice went together instead, but after they finished eating, Sally suddenly got a phone call from Callie and Marie saying that they need her to find a new recruit for a new mission, and left after paying for the food.
