Story: Done:In the land of Couran Cove, all Teuthida lived happily. Except one who actually didn’t live in Couran Cove at all. His name was Insidious, brother of Orus. He was a rather old Octoling; 344 years at that. He was banished to a faraway place known as Cardinal Reef. The only person that joined him was a scrawny Naked Teuthida: Bo. He had wanted to be more helpful to people but he regretted the day he tagged along for he was treated as if he was nothing. One day as Bo was sleeping, Insidious had a plan. He would get Bo to swim to Couran Cove. He would have to remain ‘invisible’ or at least have no one recognize him. He would then swim to the palace where all his stupid little relatives were. He’d hide behind a pillar of some sort and listen to what was going on in the palace.
When Bo had waken up, Insidious immediately barked out commands as he told Bo his plan. As Bo was leaving, Insidious equipped him with a tube of his venom, just in case, thought Insidious as he watched Bo leave.
Bo was having a hard time swimming with the weight of the venom. Of course, he didn’t want to drop it as it could pollute the waters and kill the creatures.
After a while, Bo sat to rest on a small rock. He looked at the venom in its jar. Then as if mocking him, he heard the sounds of yelling and screaming “Get up and go finish!”. However, he realized it was real. He looked back and saw he hadn’t even traveled a mile from his house!
After Insidious came and gave him a stern talk and a few slaps at the head, he gave Bo a water blaster. “Here. I stole this from the palace when I left. Maybe it’ll get you somewhere!”. As he pushed the button, Bo flashed away.
Bo’s journey had only just begun, or so he thought. Within minutes, he was at the palace! He now slowly swam by a range of rocks, as it would camouflage him. He approached the palace with caution when a rock hit his head. “Can you please give that back?” Said a small Teuthida. He tossed it to her and landed right in her tentacles. “Thank you nice person!” she shouted as she went back to tossing the rock.
After that strange event he entered the palace which seemed as vacant as his home. He looked around a little more. He walked to a corner where there was some fish skin and an octopus tentacle along with some ink. He picked up the tentacle, dipped it in ink and wrote: “Dear castle, this is Bo, the one who followed Insidious when he was banished. I was sent here to find out what the castle is doing. I wanted to warn you and I think you should plan an attack, as I don’t know what he’s going to do next. Get anyone you can. Also, keep this venom. It was his but he gave it to me in case. It would probably come to better use with you.
~Bo
He then picked up the venom and wrapped the note around it. He hoped a little Teuthida wouldn’t find it as they could accidentally break it or open it. He swam out of the palace, turned the blaster on and was off.
When he arrived back at his house, Insidious immediately asked “Where’s the venom?!”. “I had to use it” Bo hissed. Good, very good Insidious thought.
About three hours later troops from Couran Cove burst in the door. They simply took Insidious away, which was quite tough considering he was an Octoling, and put him in the tank of venom. “I will get you Bo! You will regret this day!” He shouted as he was carried off.
The troop decided it was only right to let Bo come back. They placed Insidious in a highly refined cell. Bo was always honored through his life. He was even awarded a medal for saving the castle. And as most of you know, he lived happily ever after.
EDIT: My Teuthida wishes to be put up for Random Breeding.
