...Yup. I finally did it. I combined Splatoon and Ninjago. Proud of me? Anyway, enjoy.
The Bounty sailed across the clouds that day, as normal as just another day in Ninjago. Wait - Ninjagian days are anything but normal, so this was completely unusual. Jay Walker looked off the side of the great ship, admiring the finally-mundane view. It was amazing to see that the clouds weren't consumed by darkness or swarming with evil creatures. He smiled a bit.
"Jay?" In the distance, he heard his friend Kai calling out to him. But this was his moment; it couldn't be that important.
"Jay! Get over here!"
"Come on, Kai! Don't ruin it for me!"
"Jay! I'm serious!"
Jay looked to Kai, then back at the sky.
"Jay, you're unbelievable!" Kai yelled. "You don't want me to fix the dashboard myself, do you?"
Jay gasped and darted clumsily towards the interface of the boat. He began trying to repair the computers as fast as possible, before a robotic voice stated, "Self destruction imminent. 30...29...28..."
At that moment, he realized his mistake could not be easily fixed. Sighing, he called for everyone to evacuate, and quickly, they opened their parachutes.
"Five...four..."
Jay had just managed to climb over the starboard when it exploded, and took his consciousness with it.
His head hurt when he rose; it hurt really, really bad. In fact, it was like a pounding pulse of pain, annoying enough to stick there and not fade. He groaned, slapping his fist to his forehead. At that moment, he realized how smooth his skin was. It was so smooth, soft and moist that it wasn't normal.
"Huh?" Jay muttered. His voice came out weird; his throat felt like it was bubbling on its own. It sounded as if he was talking underwater, though he was on land, breathing air.
He tried to run his hand through his hair, but he found that in place of many, thin strings were few, thick, smooth masses-, with round suckers on top of them- did he have tentacles for hair?
"What on earth is going on?" he asked himself. He seemed to be speaking a different language as well, almost like gibberish, but he could understand himself perfectly.
Jay struggled to his feet, glancing around him. Around the area, people just like him worked and played, though many didn't have suckers on top of their tentacles. "I'm not...dead, am I?"
"Of course you're not," an elderly-sounding voice said behind him. Jay turned, and a skinny, bearded old man grinned. "Welcome to Inkopolis, bucko!"
"Master...Wu...?"
"Master who?" The man chuckled. "Call me Cap'n Cuttlefish!"
Jay stifled a grin.
"I'm guessing you're unfamiliar with this place?"
"This whole world," he replied. "I sorta just woke up here."
"Lucky for you, I've known Octarian for a long time, so I think I can help you." Cuttlefish admitted with a proud smile.
"Octa-what now?"
"You ask a lot of questions, bucko. Good thing I have a lot of time, for now at least." He sat down. "If I'm studying you correctly, your world as you know it was destroyed long after you left it. It was a tremendous flood, really shook up the place...anyway, what better than sea creatures to discover the remaining land and make use of it?"
Jay raised an eyebrow.
"You're an Octoling, kiddo. Descended from the octopus. Most of them are fighting for the Octarian army, but it seems like you're lucky."
"Lucky, huh?" It pained Jay to think about these kids being forced to fight. "Do you know where my friends could be?"
"A bunch of guys just crash landed over there," the Cap'n replied, pointing behind him. "That might be your crew."
"Thanks, Cap'n!" Jay replied gratefully, then darted to thescene and found that the unconscious, er....squids...looked a lot like Kai and Nya. They woke up, then spoke to each other in a language Jay couldn't understand. In an attempt to communicate with his girlfriend, Jay tried to copy her sounds.
"What...ninja...are we?" he asked in poor, er...squid language.
Nya turned around. "Jay?" That was the only thing he could understand. She looked concerned.
Kai glared at him, saying something that clearly meant, "This is all your fault!"
Jay, unsure what to do, shook his head and looked scared. Hoping that maybe they understood him, he said in Octarian, "I was caught in the explosion! I was really worried about you guys, I'm sorry!"
