#commando squid (captain three)

[a-mysterious-anom-girl]

A head tilt, paired with an eyebrow raise- curiosity mixed with interest.

"Uhhh... no fuckin' idea, to be honest, but I guess now's the time to find out, especially since I'd rather not learn the hard way whether or not we can get zombified!" Whatever the Captain's plan is, she'd better carry it out now, because Anne's ink tank just ran dry! "Shhhhhhhhhhhit, out of ink! Do the thing, NOW!" she shouted, stowing her modified gear and preparing to brace herself.

SUMMON THE WAVE!

Guh... Where were they?... One second, Captain 3 was showing Anne around the New Squidbeak Splatoon base located in the Splatlands and then... Oh wait, the captain remembers. Something opened up below their feet and caused them to become unconscious. Speaking of unconsciousness, after a bit of searching of this mysterious and seemingly abandoned bus station, Captain 3 did come across an unconscious Anne - who she quickly went over and began to shake in order to try and wake her up.

A grey creature being reported falling somewhere within the Splatlands? Why did that sound familiar?... Bah, whatever the reasoning, it didn't stop Captain 3 from rushing out into the field to check out this mysterious creature for herself; Bringing along New 3 for the sake of furthering her training out on the field. However, during their search for this mysterious creature, some... Thing had caught the attention of the newbie of the NSS; Causing her to immediately pounce the source and start attacking it without any hesitation! Unfortunately not knowing the one she was attacking was a certain Pseudo-Anon that the Captain had encountered around three years ago...

@immense-inklings

"Wh- oh, goddAAAAAAAAMNIIIIIIIIT!!" Anne derp-warped YET AGAIN, and this time... this time, she had the same misfortune as when she first ended up in 3's world, but worse. The fall this time was around like... 30 feet. Anne's durability and the ground below her being primarily sand would certainly help... but the landing still hurt like hell. "AUGH! Ugh, fucking hell... my ass... and everything else... where the hell even am I?"

And then Neo Three pounced on her.

"GACK! GET IT OFF, GET IT OFF, GET IT OFF! RABID INKLING, RABID INKLING! GAAAAAAGH!" Well, this is... certainly not the reaction one would expect from Anne. No proper attempts to fight back, just panic and flailing... but that voice... that ever so slightly husky female voice... it just might bring to mind some old memories for the Captain.

Ex-North Korean Diplomat Runs for South Korean Parliament

SEOUL, South Korea — A former North Korean diplomat who fled his embassy posting has become the first defector to run for South Korea’s Parliament, saying on Wednesday that he was motivated by Seoul’s forced repatriation of two North Korean fishermen who wanted to defect to the South.

“This was so wrong, even if they were criminals,” said the former diplomat, Thae Yong-ho, referring to the two North Koreans who were repatriated to the North in November after they were captured in waters off South Korea.

Mr. Thae was the No. 2 diplomat in the North Korean Embassy in London when he fled to South Korea with his wife and two sons​ in 2016​.

South Korea’s main conservative political opposition, the United Future Party, selected him to run in National Assembly elections in April.

Mr. Thae is the first North Korean defector to seek a popularly elected parliamentary seat in the South; another defector sat in Parliament from 2012 to 2016 as an expert nominated by a political party.

On Wednesday, Mr. Thae said he had never thought of ​seeking election until the two North Korean fishermen were sent home against their will.

“I could not sleep that night,” ​he said during a news conference Wednesday.

South Korean Navy commandoes seized the two North Koreans from their squid-fishing boat in early November after they had repeatedly resisted an order to surrender, according to South Korean officials.

After their capture, the two confessed that they were running from the law after murdering the captain and 15 other crewmen on their boat, South Korean officials said. They also said they wanted to defect to the South. The South Korean authorities decided to treat them not as political refugees but as “heinous criminals.”

Blindfolded and tied with ropes, they were escorted to the North Korean border. One collapsed when his blindfold was taken off and he realized that he was about to be handed over to the North, according to South Korean officials and lawmakers familiar with the episode.

Mr. Thae compared South Korea’s actions to not rescuing a drowning man because he ​was considered a criminal. The men should have been accepted and then tried under South Korean law, he said.

A government report on the alleged crimes of the two North Koreans remains classified. But according to officials and lawmakers, the ​ship’s boatswain, identified only by his last name, Woo, was the main instigator, persuading another deck​ ​hand to join him in killing the captain, who had treated them cruelly, often beating their heads with a food tray.

Eventually, the ship’s chief engineer also joined the killing spree, which started ​late the night of Oct. 30 and continued until early next morning. The killers woke the 15 other crewmen one by one and lured ​them outside, butchering ​them with axes​, hammers and knives​ and dumping their bodies into the sea​. Officials and lawmakers ​briefed on the killings called them “scenes from a horror movie.”

The 15 crewmen killed were first-time seamen, they said.

The three killers then steered their ship back to a North Korean port, hoping to flee inland. But when one of them was caught by the North Korean police, the other two fled to the sea. Their fate in North Korea ​is unknown, but people convicted of serious crimes there​ are often executed​.

Mr. Thae pledged that if he were elected, he would try to enact a law to ensure that South Korea ​accepted all North Korean ​asylum-seekers regardless of their criminal backgrounds.

Mr. Thae ​​said his candidacy could be eye-opening for members of the North Korean elite working or traveling abroad,​ who might watch his election campaign through ​their smartphones and spread the word to isolated relatives back in the North. It would be a great opportunity to show the North Korean people ​“how democracy works,” he said.

"...muh... whuh... f-five more minutes... w-wait..." Anne's eyebrows suddenly shot up, and she sat up with similar speed. Yep, she's awake now. "...ohhh god fucking DAMNIT! NOW where the hell did I end up... and I dragged you with me, too?! Oh, for the love... whoa. The hell happened to this place...?" Scratching her head a bit, Anne got to her feet and dusted herself off, looking around the area a bit.

Boarded-up windows, a seemingly abandoned place, and... a... long box with... question marks on it. "...ohhhhhhh FUCK! Ohhhh, fuck, fuck, fuck, fuck, fuck!" Ever since she'd been given that computer, Anne had been wandering the web a lot, especially YouTube, and she'd seen enough of a certain channel's videos to know exactly what was going on here. "...Tanya. Find a gun. NOW."

SUMMON THE WAVE!

(call of duty zombies muthafuckaaaaaas)

Guh... Where were they?... One second, Captain 3 was showing Anne around the New Squidbeak Splatoon base located in the Splatlands and then... Oh wait, the captain remembers. Something opened up below their feet and caused them to become unconscious. Speaking of unconsciousness, after a bit of searching of this mysterious and seemingly abandoned bus station, Captain 3 did come across an unconscious Anne - who she quickly went over and began to shake in order to try and wake her up.

[a-mysterious-anom-girl]

"Oh, we're actually ready to head outside now." Anne said, grabbing a drill and some bolts from the workbench before grabbing the makeshift turbine and opening the doors to the outside with it. "That cowcatcher thing's gonna go on the front of the bus so we can run over zombies better!" Anne chuckled, then picked up the turbine and motioned for Tanya to follow her. "C'mon, the bus ain't gonna wait forever!"

Outside... it was not a pleasant sight. Not at all. After all, a flaming, wrecked area that looks like Hell tried and failed to forcefully merge with the surface world, complete with scattered large cracks in the ground filled with lava, isn't exactly what one would call a nice vacation spot, even for demons. "...this is why I told you to tone down your hopes of finding somewhere to set up a base."

SUMMON THE WAVE!

[a-mysterious-anom-girl]

"Ah, okay, gotcha. And yeah, that sounds damned annoying. Duty before love my ass, the promotion could've waited a day!" Anne simply shook her head... "I'm guessing Callie & Marie got an earful from you about that? And yeah, doesn't surprise me that 4's still crazy, hehe."

Anne nodded in agreement with that second part as well. "I feel ya there, Tanya. It's certainly not for the same reason, but I don't plan to stay inactive either, despite that, uh, kinda being a core part of the lifestyle of a fatass I wanna lead, heh, but I've been stuck in the white void I call my home for far too long. I gotta see the world, or rather, worlds, see all there is to see and then some! And if that means I get into some fights and protect some people, so be it. Leaving folks for dead isn't something I intend to do." She cracks her knuckles, then crosses her arms. "So, we nearly there? I want as many of y'all as possible to hear about where the hell I ended up."

A grey creature being reported falling somewhere within the Splatlands? Why did that sound familiar?... Bah, whatever the reasoning, it didn't stop Captain 3 from rushing out into the field to check out this mysterious creature for herself; Bringing along New 3 for the sake of furthering her training out on the field. However, during their search for this mysterious creature, some... Thing had caught the attention of the newbie of the NSS; Causing her to immediately pounce the source and start attacking it without any hesitation! Unfortunately not knowing the one she was attacking was a certain Pseudo-Anon that the Captain had encountered around three years ago...

@immense-inklings

"Wh- oh, goddAAAAAAAAMNIIIIIIIIT!!" Anne derp-warped YET AGAIN, and this time... this time, she had the same misfortune as when she first ended up in 3's world, but worse. The fall this time was around like... 30 feet. Anne's durability and the ground below her being primarily sand would certainly help... but the landing still hurt like hell. "AUGH! Ugh, fucking hell... my ass... and everything else... where the hell even am I?"

And then Neo Three pounced on her.

"GACK! GET IT OFF, GET IT OFF, GET IT OFF! RABID INKLING, RABID INKLING! GAAAAAAGH!" Well, this is... certainly not the reaction one would expect from Anne. No proper attempts to fight back, just panic and flailing... but that voice... that ever so slightly husky female voice... it just might bring to mind some old memories for the Captain.

[a-mysterious-anom-girl]

"Good. And heh, sounds about right!" Anne couldn't help but chuckle at that. Sure enough, Tanya had mellowed out a bit. Probably for the best, in case the Splatoon encounters any new races that don't want to destroy them.

When the Captain pointed at the small cabin, Anne noticed it pretty quickly. "Ah, gotcha." She was quick to examine her surroundings once they properly arrived at the base, and she could see who she guessed was Trish watching them from the sniper tower. Unsurprisingly, the first thing she noticed about her was her bright purple hair tentacles.

Both eyebrows ended up a bit raised due to how loud that whistle was, and there was a slight head tilt when who she assumed was Agent 4 emerged from the cabin, righted via a nod once the younger Agent spoke. "Ah, yeah, probably, hehe." Anne said, rubbing the back of her neck again. "Grey bald woman with huge teeth, beat up some Salmonids, ate an energy drink can, then vanished mid-sentence before breakfast?" she asked, thinking those were probably the big bits that Tanya had told her.

[a-mysterious-anom-girl]

Anne started to answer 4's question, but stopped when Tanya suggested not bringing it up around new members. She simply shrugged at that- seemed fair enough.

She crossed her arms again as Trish approached, briefly looking her over and indeed thinking she looked quite nice. Capable-looking for sure, clearly a sniper, and looking ready for just about anything.

Anne chuckled in regard to Trish's comment, holding out a hand. "Yeah, well, I'm uh... not exactly from around here, to say the least. Nice to meet you, 5." she said with a smile, revealing her large, sharp, pointy teeth.

[a-mysterious-anom-girl]

"Gagh, fuckin' hell... wait, Th-Three?!" Anne's eyebrows shot up, and she clumsily picked herself back up, still a bit achy from the fall, but she'd be fine. "Shit, it's been wi- whoa. Y-your scar's WAY bigger... the hell happened to it? A-and also, you really gotta reign that nutcase in more." she said, pointing at New 3. "I thought she was fucking feral!"

And then... a realization hit her. "...wait. Wait, wait, wait, waaaaait. Just... how long has it been since the last time you saw me? Because it's only been a week for me... also, where even are we? I thought you lived in a city, not the desert!"

The Agent 3 that Anne knew best was standing before her once again, and though her attire was different and her scar was much larger, she instantly recognized her voice and muscular build. This was the very same Inkling who had saved her from that Maws by holding its, well, maw open with her bare hands...

[a-mysterious-anom-girl]

"Ah, probably not, and this ain't quite a weapon, per se- this is that turbine I mentioned." Anne scooted over a few steps and grabbed what looked like a very small plane fin off the floor before tossing it onto the workbench, cracking her knuckles and finishing the turbine before hooking it up to the nearest double doors, activating the contraption and opening the way!

"This is step one of getting the hell outta here, Tanya. Oh, and grab that cowcatcher while you're at it, would ya?" she asked, pointing to a large chunk of metal leaned up against something on the other side of the bus station. "You're crazy strong, you should be able to carry it no problem." Anne wasn't wrong, but why would it be needed...?

SUMMON THE WAVE!

Guh... Where were they?... One second, Captain 3 was showing Anne around the New Squidbeak Splatoon base located in the Splatlands and then... Oh wait, the captain remembers. Something opened up below their feet and caused them to become unconscious. Speaking of unconsciousness, after a bit of searching of this mysterious and seemingly abandoned bus station, Captain 3 did come across an unconscious Anne - who she quickly went over and began to shake in order to try and wake her up.

[a-mysterious-anom-girl]

"...yeah, alright, I guess that works too, and that makes sense, but uh... I don't think ink is gonna help much against what we're up against here, Tanya." Anne said, her voice still filled with concern. The captain may not yet know what's about to break through... but Anne sure as hell does, and manages to notice a pair of pistols and knives right next to then. Shaking her head, she quickly picks them up and slips one pistol into Tanya's pocket before pocketing both knives and tightly gripping the pistol...

Bam. "Rrrnnngh..." Wham. "Grwrrr..." Thud. "Rurgh, rarh, rargh!" CRASH! The boards on one of the windows gave way... and a pair of glowing yellow eyes stared right at them, resting in eye sockets surrounded by rotting skin and flesh. "RRRUOOOAAAAAARGH!" A goddamned ZOMBIE. They were dealing with zombies. "THAT'S why I said to find a gun! FUCKING ZOMBIES! Unless that new weapon you got there can cut heads off, use a fucking gun!" Taking aim, Anne immediately sent a shot hurtling into the shambling corpse's brain as it clambered through the window and into the station, while other groups of the undead started to break in as well, making similarly unsettling noises to the first one. Oh boy.

SUMMON THE WAVE!

[a-mysterious-anom-girl]

Anne's eyebrows shot up again as the slash of ink was launched at the zombie... and then they raised a little further when it split in half and fell apart. "...yeah, alright, that definitely works! Just make sure you don't run out of ink, and keep the pistol on you- I slipped it into your pocket." Shrugging, Anne took aim again, firing more rounds into the skulls of the undead and sending them tumbling down.

"This is gonna sound stupid, but even without any extra boards, we can ENDLESSLY board the windows n' shit back up. Watch this." Chuckling, Anne pistol-whipped a zombie in the face before blasting its rotting brains out, then simply held a hand up to the window the zombie had been about to climb through, and... whoosh-thunk, whoosh-thunk, whoosh-thunk, whoosh-thunk, whoosh-thunk. "Ta-da! Freshly rebuilt barricade! And this ain't the weirdest thing about how this place works, trust me."

"Y-yeah, alright, that does make sense, hehe-" And then her eyebrows shot up. Way up.

"D-did you just say THREE YEARS?! YEARS?! Fucking hell, man... space-time travel is wild. Okay, you have GOT to tell me what happened while I was gone. Meanwhile, I kinda ended up on a wild adventure of my own..." Chuckling, Anne rubbed the back of her neck nervously. "How about I tell you when we get back to wherever the hell you guys have your base set up now? Because uhhhhhh... I don't think I can handle bein' out here in the DESERT for long considering this is my only outfit..."

Yeah... a sweatshirt and sweatpants is not a good idea for desert attire. The sooner she gets some new clothes, the better.

[a-mysterious-anom-girl]

As the whole situation was explained to her, Anne couldn't help but remark on a few things: Octavio escaping from his snowglobe again- "I told you giant bandages wasn't gonna be enough to keep him there!", and then fleeing to the Splatlands- "Yeah, you'd think that's something he'd consider a really bad idea considering you're all evolved sea creatures and this place is dry as hell...", the Splatoon intending to just put him in a snowglobe again- "Yeah, NO. You have GOT to find something sturdier to lock him up in this time, a big glass ball ain't gonna cut it anymore.", and her marriage and entry into polyamory. "Awww.~ I knew you two were gonna tie the knot eventually! And... huh. Wasn't expecting that, hehe, but the more, the merrier!"

After that was her remarks on the new agents and other such things. "So this nutcase is the new Agent 3, and 8 is basically Trish's superior again? Heh, the more things change, the more they stay the same, I guess. And... Tanya Hokai. Got it. Also, did the old captain kick the bucket, or did he just retire?" Curiosity is inevitable, as always.
