Meanwhile way back In Octo Valley, the Octarians prepare to take over Inkopolis. There are thousands of Octarian troops ready to fight. Now we check in and see what the Octoling group is doing after so long

"Alright guys i think we've been practicing long enough. Ava how's that new .96 Gal Deco treating you?" Karl asked

"WAY BETTER THAN THAT WHIMPPY 52! MUCH FARTHER RANGE AND WAY BETTER KILL POWER! NOW I CAN BLOW SOME HEADS UP EVEN FASTER!"

"Great...now your even more cynical...anyways are you guys sure you don't wanna switch weapons?"

"Yeah I'm sure Karl but thanks anyways." Erika said while Frosty gave him a thumbs up.

"Heh...well alright then it's settled. Let's do this." Karl then shows off his new Bamboozler 14 MK 2 then heads off to Inkopolis with some troops

Meanwhile back in Inkopolis, Jared, Amethyst, Carter, & Xavier come out of the lobby

"Man is Jared okay? He's been like that since Gabe's been working on that Cube"

"Eh I'm sure he's fine."

"He just went 0/10 and then he stopped moving in one match. What a baby." Xavier said

"Ugh alright I'll see what's up........heeeey are you okay?"

".......yeah I'm fine." He spoke in such a depressed voice and didn't even look her in the eye

"Well then why did it take you a while to answer?"

"Ummm"

"Look man we all see that somethings up, your so curious on that voice. Your like 'what if ill never hear that guy again' am i right?"

"Um A. No one cares about the cheating cube and B. Get over it!"

Amethyst slapped Xavier

"OW What the heck! It's the hard truth!"

"Heh he didn't mean that...DID YOU, Xavier!?" Amethyst spoke in a demonic voice staring at him very cold in the eyes

"Uhh yeah I didn't mean it...man she's scary."

"Thanks guys that means a lot. Even from you X."

"Now c'mon I feel like skateboarding, I've had enough turf wars for one day."

"Already?? But amethyst I mean.."

"What Xavier? You just like fighting with her is that it?" Jared said to Xavier while giving off a creepy smile

"Uh no..you have fun with skateboarding..I'm gonna get a coffee."

"Ok then.. See ya." Amethyst winked at Xavier then was about to leave

"Mind if we join you?"

"Uhhh....ugh sure why not."

The 3 guys grab some food from inkopolis's Cafe; Baked Freshness, sit down and Xavier talks about how he likes amethyst but doesn't know why

"Uhh ahem. Urchins-I mean..Jared & Carter. I have something to tell you."

"Ok, what is it?" Jared said while eating a croissant

"....I like Amethyst. There I said it."

Carter spits out coffee then some drips out of his nose. He then proceeds to choke

"AGH really??? You are???"

"Carter quit the act, it was so obvious!"

"I don't know how or why but I had feelings for her ever since she wanted me to join the group...what is wrong with me??" Xavier wondered why while banging his head on the table
