Chapter Text
The Deep Sea Brawl area is basically one big paintball arena,spanning a good chunk right off the coast of Starr park.
In this place where bright,dry paint on every wall is just a marker of a missed shot,or fallen soldier-
I mean defeated player!
Deep into the area,one will find a strange building,stranger than usual,it was littered with paint,like any other building in the deep sea brawl,but sounds could be heard from it,the sounds of what seemed like people chattering amongst themselves.
And the clattering of paint cans...
On closer inspection,one would see...
The Deep sea trio!
They are a complete group of three brawlers:
Hank,the shrimp who is simply prawn ready, seemingly commander of this commotion,...and resident of his customized,fish shaped,tank
Clancy,the possibly schizophrenic h̶u̶m̶a̶n̶ lobster,who has been seen more in some tunnel,mumbling to himself,than actually being in battle
These two take the "sacred" game of paintball,FAR too seriously for their own good,other brawlers have tried getting them out of the battlefield for a bit to just..hang out,but,to them,duty is more important,their duty to avenge their fallen brothers and sisters who had died to a certain samurai...
But then,there is Otis,a mysterious squid with a starfish friend called Cil,it was actually forcefully conscripted into their excuse of an army,it is absolutely sick of them and their tomfoolery,it actually does not associate with Hank and Clancy
because of this.
Though every time it tries to escape,they always find a way to bring him back into the army...
Otis has had enough of this back and forth,he is going to try to escape the deep sea for a bit,explore starr park outside of brawls and maybe even find this Samurai that his triomates hate so much.
One night,when Hank and Clancy were sleeping,Otis snuck out the building with the idea of freedom,of no longer being forcefully conscripted,even if it was for a short while,he really just wanted to be out of their vicinity for once.
Soon,Otis was on the shores of Super City,it was empty as it was night time,it took a second to take in the breeze,allowing Cil to embrace it with it before moving on.
Otis and Cil wandered the Park before finding a bush,near the Katana kingdom,it was practically empty so it decided to go sleep in the bush while Cil kept watch.The squid fell asleep almost instantly into Dreamland...

Early,the next morning,waking up to the relatively tight grasp of her husband,Kenji,was Kaze,the humble geisha with movements as graceful if not more as a swan,her husband's snores ringed in her ear as she woke up but she didn't mind,she didn't even mind the grasp he had on her,she knew he was just scared of losing her again,she found it rather cute,actually.
She wriggled herself out of the samurai's grasp as she got out of bed,she then did her regular morning routine before taking her daily morning walk.

Cil wakes Otis up,Cil noticed something coming towards the two and it got scared so it woke Otis up.
Otis stumbles awake before looking to the figure Cil saw
It was a rather tall figure(to it,at least),the details couldn't really be seen as the sun was barely up,but slowly started appearing as it approached closer.
Otis panics as the figure comes,riffing the leaves of the bush and attracting the figure's attention

Kaze,as she walks through the kingdom,slowly feels the suffocating thoughts of her being a deadly assassin during her youth coming back yet again,she's been feeling that a part of her life has felt empty,and it was obvious why.
Just as she was about think further into it,she hears ruffling from a bush,she didn't think too much of it at first,but it was too sudden,she decides to check it out.
