Rachel: *Whistling*

Rachel continued to whistle as she headed towards Ammo Knights.

Rachel: *Whistling trails off* Heya Sheldon!

Sheldon: Hm? Oh hey Agent 4.

Rachel runs over and covers Sheldon's mouth with both her hands.

Rachel: SHHHHHH! You only call me that when we're on the field!

Rachel removes her hands.

Sheldon: Whoops. Sorry. I get so used to calling you and Michael by your agent names.

Rachel: It's alright. Just be more careful, alright?

Sheldon: Got it. So what brings you to Ammo Knights?

Rachel: I've leveled up a bit so I wanted to see if there was anything new in stock.

Sheldon: Hmm. *Snaps fingers* I think you're ready for the Enperry Splat Dualies. Wait here.

Sheldon walks into the back of the store. As Rachel waits, she hears some loud screams.

Rachel: Huh!?

Rachel runs and throws the doors to Ammo Knights open! Inklings are running around as if they were evading someone!

Random Inkling: AN OCTOLING!

Flow: HEY! GET BACK HERE WITH MY MERCH!

Random Inkling 2: THEIF!

Rachel looks over to see an octoling running out of Headspace! The octoling took a sharp left turn and started running towards the sewer drain. As Rachel watched the octoling run towards the drain, she heard a familiar voice.

Michael: GET BACK HERE!

It was Michael! He was charging straight for the octoling! Rachel's agent skills kicked in just there. She too then started running after the octoling. The octoling was able to reach the drain and hopped in and shortly after, Michael and Rachel followed suit. Michael and Rachel flew out of the drain!

Michael: Where is she!? Where'd she go?!

Rachel: Over there!

The octoling was running towards a kettle. Michael and Rachel charged after her and luckily Rachel was able to tackle her.

Octoling: GAH! NO! DON'T HURT ME! I JUST WANTED SOME CLOTHES!

The octoling was crying and curling up into a ball.

Octoling: P-Please... Leave me alone...

Michael: You can't just steal! Pay for it next time!

Octoling: B-But I don't have a-any m-money...

Michael picked up the two hats the octoling stole and walked off towards the drain.

Michael: Rachel, I leave you to decide the punishment.

Michael jumped into the sewer drain.

Octoling: *Sniff* I-I just wanted to b-be fresh too. *Sniff*

Rachel gets up off the octoling.

Rachel: *Sigh* Here.

Rachel takes off her Studio Headphones.

Rachel: You can have these.

The octoling gets up and wipes the tears away from her eyes.

Octoling: R-Really?

Rachel: Yes. You can really have them.

The octoling grabs the headphones from Rachel's hands.

Octoling: Thank you. Wait, you look familiar.

Rachel: I do?

Octoling: Yeah! Now I remember you! You're Agent 4 right?! The one who ran into me yesterday?!

Rachel: Oh yeah. That was me, wasn't it. Sorry about that.

Octoling: It's alright.

Rachel: So, what's your name?

Octoling: My name? Oh, my name is Jessica.

Rachel: Jessica huh? That's a pretty name.

Jessica: T-Thank you. My mom always said the same thing.

Rachel: Well your mom must've been a very intelligent woman. Hm?

Rachel notices the sky has gone from its bright blue to a sparkling orange.

Rachel: Oh man! Have I really been talking to you for that long?! I gotta go! I'll see you some other time Jessica!

Jessica: Bye!

Jessica waved as Rachel hopped into the sewer drain. Jessica looked down at the pair of headphones in her hand. A smile grew on her face as she blushed a little.

Jessica: How am I gonna explain this to sis?
