The Legacy Of Humanity - A Splatoon Fanfiction

Side 2 - Intermissions

Authors Notes: This is a few short stories I made to make up for the time between arks. The first is based of an idea that Game Nation proposed. The second was something that randomly popped into my head. The third was something I had planned, but couldn't decide where to insert it. The fourth is some content I cut out of the last chapter.

1 - History Always Repeats Itself.

Otome and the Inklings, were being taken on a tour of the Eden facility. First was the command center, which fascinated Marie. "This place reminds me of the control room of our studio, but so much larger. I've never seen so many computers in one place. What are they all for?" She asked, while gazing at the various terminals.

"Everything that goes on in Eden is monitored from those terminals," Brandon responded. "I wouldn't exaggerate when I say this is the most important part of the facility."

"Oh, so we could spy on Drake from here? I'm a little curious why he couldn't give us the tour himself," Marie said with a smirk. "Right, Callie?"

"Wh- why are you asking me?"

"Luckily for him, the crew quarters don't have cameras," Brandon responded. "And don't touch that!" He said to Levin, who was looking at one of the computers.

"I think this one is broken, dude," he said, and pointed to the terminal. The screen had frozen up and was garbled.

"Great, another thing for me to fix," Reggie said with a groan. "I just hope a certain Japanese guy won't get in my way this time."

"Seriously, You're still mad about that? Let it go, Dude!" Takeshi shot back. Levin looked over at the human guard.

"Looks like you got it tough too, bro. I'm all too familiar with getting yelled at," Levin said, while ignoring Shara's glare.

"Finally! Someone that understands the struggle!" Takeshi responded.

"Idiots," Shara said while shaking her head. "So, where else are we going?"

"Let's hit the power plant next," Matt said.

"I've been waiting to see how humans generate power!" The now excited Otome said.

"I can assure you, it's nothing special," Reggie said, as the group left the control room. After the power plant, they toured the armory, agridome, cryo lab, medical bay (which was quite a surprise for Dr. Harkov) and the motor pool. Levin was fascinated by the armory, while Kirk enjoyed learning how the humans survived in the cryo lab. Callie preferred the relaxing atmosphere of the agridome. Shara's favorite place would be the last spot on the tour, the library.

"I wish I could read your language. I could spend days, no, months here," she said, gazing at the books and video disks on display.

"Why, Shara. I had no idea you were a book worm," Neptune said with a grin.

"Can it, pink one!" Shara snapped. "I happen to like reading. Especially historical things."

"History, huh?" Brandon said, while thinking. "Why don't we show you some of ours."

"Really? You'll do that for us?" Shara responded with a surprised look. The security guards took turns translating several historical programs from the library computer. They showed them several different time periods, including the rise and fall of the Roman empire, the crusades, the Napoleonic wars and the American revolution.

"I had no idea that human history was like this," Marie said.

"Pretty easy to see how we screwed up the planet, isn't it?" Brandon said with a sad tone. "If you want to back out of this concert, I won't blame you."
