Erina's POV
"Yuichi-san? Can I ask you a favor?" I mumble.
"Sorry Erina, I'm kind of busy, maybe later?" Yuichi-san replies with a small smile.
"O-Oh... It's okay, I get that you're busy," I sigh.
"Sorry Erina, try to ask Yuki?" Yuichi-san requests. I instantly light up.
"Right!" I grin and run off to find Yuki-san. I was walking around the HQ but I couldn't see Yuki-san anywhere, but I saw Koutarou-Nii so I went to go ask him,
"Koutarou-Nii!" I call,
"Oh, Erina, what's up?" He smiles.
"Where is Yuki-san?" I question.
"Ohhhh- uhm- I don't know actually, maybe she's on a mission?" Koutarou-Nii replies shrugging a bit.
"Oh..."
"Why? Did you need anything from her?" Koutarou-Nii asks.
"Yea, Yuichi-san is busy so I wanted to ask her if she could go to the store with me, Oh! What about you? Are you busy??" I grin excitedly.
"Yea, sorry... I'm sure there are others that you can go with," Koutarou-Nii mumbles.
"No it's okay, I can go by myself," I smile weakly.
"Oh no no no- nevermind about my job, I'll go with you," Koutarou-Nii says quickly.
"It's okay, you're busy I understand,"
"But I can't let you go alone, some inklings still don't accept us into society," Koutarou-Nii says as he pulls his OctoPhone out of his pocket and started texting some inklings and octolings. I wait silently, fidgeting around with my fingers. Koutarou-Nii clicks his tongue many times, indicating everyone is saying no.
"Koutarou-Nii It's okay, I don't care. I'm an agent I should be able to go by myself," I mumble. Koutarou-Nii sighs and turns off his phone.
"Erina, just remember your ID card, your Hero ID as well. If there are any problems call me, you have a phone right?"
I nod.
"Good, just be careful okay?"
"I'll be fine Koutarou-Nii," I smile. He sighs.
"Alright, go on then,"
I grin excitedly and walk out of the HQ back home to grab my wallet,
A few minutes later
"Wallet... ID... Hero ID... Phone... Let's wear a hat as well!" I grin. I picked my favorite from the hat rack before twirling once in front of the mirror.
"Done!" I smile to myself.
"It was a disappointment that nobody was able to come with me, but that's okay! I should walk around myself once in a while! Have some alone time! Yea!" I mumble to myself before heading out of the apartment.
A few hours later
So far so good! No harassment, bullying, nothing! I smile at the good day I'm having for once. Sure I did overhear some conversations, but it was small, it was nothing.
"THERE CAPTURE HER!" Someone yelled.
"Huh-" I barely reacted before I was swept from my feet, stuffed into a bag, and carried off.
"W-Wha- Hey! Let me out! I'm an agent I'll have you know!" I exclaimed punching at the bag I was trapped in.
"Sorry, Octoling, can't do that! You guys sell well on the black market these days! It's our lucky day! You didn't have an inkling with you!" I heard. I was starting to tear up.
"Let me out! Let me out!" I yelled.
"Someone help!"
"Woah Woah there, stop moving around so much, or I'll just kill you here and sell your organs instead!" The voice growled. I instantly quietened.
"That's better,"
I felt like I was trapped in there for a long time until I heard a door opening and I was thrown to the ground. I yelped a little before I was harshly dumped out from the bag.
"Ow!" I whine.
"Oh shut up," The inkling growls. He quickly tied a rope to my arms and legs so that I wouldn't get away.
"Now, sit still and look 'pretty' Octoling," He grins. He snapped a quick photo and mumbles something to his phone while typing. Erina shuffles back to a wall to at least try and get away from the inkling.
"Yuichi-san... help me.." I mumble quietly. Suddenly, the door slammed open. Yuichi-san, Yuki-san, and Koutarou-Nii came running in.
"Hands up!" Koutarou-Nii exclaims. Meanwhile, Yuichi-san runs towards me and undoes the rope around my hands then my legs.
"Were you okay Erina? I'm sorry, I should've gone with you," Yuichi-san apologizes.
"No no it's okay, it was my decision. I went even after Koutarou-Nii warned me. I'm sorry," I mumble. Yuichi-san sighs and hugs me tightly.
"I'm just glad you're alright," He says.
"Quit the lovey-dovey stuff. We need to get out of here and throw this guy in prison," Yuki-san calls out.
"Right, c'mon Erina," Yuichi-san says. He stands up and gives me his hand. I take it and stand up wobbling a little. We all walkout.
An hour or so later
We were standing in front of the house.
"Yuichi-san, aren't we going to go inside?" I ask confused.
"Give it a moment," Yuichi-san replies with a grin. Suspicious. There was a 'ping' of a phone notification which Yuichi-san checked.
"Alright, let's go inside," Yuichi-san says. He opens the door and ushered me inside. Inside it was dark. I was about to turn on the light but a burning candle in the middle of the room caught my eye. I cautiously walked towards it and stood right in front of it. Suddenly the light was turned on and it blinded me.
"Happy Birthday Erina!!"
"Huh?" I said in surprise before looking down on the candle. It was standing on a cake, words spelled out 'Happy Birthday Erina!'
"Wha- Is this what you were busy with this morning?!" I exclaim,
"That's correct, sorry Erina," Yuichi-san says scratching the back of his head. I shake my head.
"No, thank you," I smile.
"Koutarou, light up all the other candles, it's time to wish her a happy birthday!"
"On it Yuki!"
A few hours of partying later
It was dark when we waved everyone with a tired smile.
"Did you like your surprise Erina?" Yuichi-san asks. I nod happily.
"I loved it! Thank you Yuichi-san!" I grin. He smiles back.
"Come, you haven't gotten your daily cuddles, have you?" Yuichi-san says.
"Oh! I forgot about those!" I exclaim. Yuichi-san chuckles and heads over to the couch. He opens his arms beckoning me. I head over as well and nestled into his arms. I close my eyes and sigh in relaxation. I feel a warm hand rubbing circles on my back while the other was stroking my tentacles making me feel sleepy.
"Go to sleep, you're safe," Yuichi-san mumbles quietly.
"Thank you..." I mumble before falling asleep.
