Part 1:
Silica, a 14 year old, teal colored inkling, finds her way to Inkopolis. Her cheery attitude attracted many friends and followers, and a dangerous job, and school brought many surprises and shocking ideas. Looks like Inkopolis isn't nearly a...
Silica knocked on Cobalt's door, hoping he would come quick. He opened the door, looking confused.
"Cobalt, look at this," Silica shoved the newspaper in his face, pointing to the odd article about Marina.
He scanned it, then started stammering "B-But what about P-Pearl and the others?"
"That's where we're going." Silica grabbed his hand(to a gasp from Cobalt), and ran towards the sewer grate that led to Octarian Crevice.
They came up to see an upsetting sight. Callie was sitting with her head in her knees, sobbing, while Marie patted her back solemnly. Cherry and Ray were comforting an upset Kari, who was looking shocked and sad. Sora and Agent 10 were sitting on a bench with a glazed, blank look of shock.

Her tentacles were longer than normal, and she looked like she would never smile again. Tears streaked her forsaken face, and she sat alone in the renewed Cuttlefish Cabin. Next to her was a lonely Golden Salmonoid Egg. The last one.
Cobalt sat down with Callie, stammering comforting words, looking scared.
"Pearl..." Silica reached out to touch her shoulder, but hesitated and drew it back.
"I'm sorry about Marina..." She sat down, scooping up the egg and placing it in her lap. "I...um...Did Marina really do...you know?"
Pearl nodded silently, shuddering.
Silica didn't know what to do, so she just patted her shoulder awkwardly.
I'm guessing Marina was going to smash this egg...Maybe I'll take it home and raise the little Salmonoid. I feel really bad for it.
"Can I...take this?" She pointed to the egg, and Pearl flinched, nodding rapidly.
She walked out of the Cuttlefish Cabin with the egg in her arms, and silently made her was to the sewer grate, knowing she didn't belong here at this time.
Sorry for the short chapter, I was working too much on the art and never got a chance to think about the story ╮(￣▽￣"")╭. Sorry
