SMG4 Movie: Meggy’s Destiny

Scene 1
(Glitch Productions and SMG4 logos.)

(The movie starts with some lingering shots in Meggy's room at nighttime. The ceiling fan is running and Meggy's Splattershot is standing up next to the sofa. We then see Meggy laying on her bed.)

Meggy: Last year ... was rough.

(We get flashbacks of when she used to be an Inkling.)

Meggy: Life used to be simple... Wake up, go about my day... And then train... and train... and train.

(She turns into her squid from and swims into an orange paint can, which is closed by Piantas who were transporting paint to the Mushroom Kingdom.)

Meggy: Until that fateful day... The day that I met that red goofball.

(We get flashbacks to If Mario Was In.. Splatoon.)

Meggy: I'm really thankful. Because of him, we've had so many good times together.

(We are treated to flashbacks of Meggy and Mario on their many adventures together.)

Meggy: And I've made so many friends among the way.

(More flashbacks, this time with more of the crew. Then the flashbacks end and we return to Meggy's bedroom.)

Meggy: But like I said...

(We get treated to flashbacks from the Anime Arc.)

Meggy: Last year was rough...

(We see a flashback of Desti being stabbed by False Sephiroth. This causes Meggy to rise from the bed. She looks at the "Splatfest Champion" poster which is hanging in her room. We see a flashback of Desti in her final moments.)

Desti: You better win Splatfest for me, okay?

(We get one last flashback of Desti's funeral.)

Meggy: But this is a new year.

(We return to the present time.)

Meggy: And this one belongs to me!

Scene 2
(We cut to the next day, where Meggy, Tari, Mario, and Luigi are in a training area for their last training before Splatfest. Bowser, Shroomy, Saiko, Boopkins, Bob, Axol, and Toad are sitting on the bleachers.)

Meggy: So this is it huh?

Luigi: Seems that way

Tari: The final challenge!

Mario: Time to dieeeee!

(Mario takes out his Mini Splatling and jump up to the air, only to get interrupted by E.Gadd)

E.Gadd: NO NO NO STOP STOP STOP

(Mario falls down and lands on his Mini Splatling, in turn landing on his crotch.)

Mario: My penis!

E.Gadd: You guys are here to test out my new invention. Remember? The Ink Boi 3000!

(He begins demonstrating how the Ink Boi works.)

E.Gadd: To stand a chance in this competition, you guys need to swim and move around like inklings! That's why I made these bad boys to even the playing field.

Meggy: Pfft.... I don't need a stupid invention to help me at Splatfest.

E.Gadd: Nonsense! Don't think it as help.

(He gives Meggy the Ink Boi.)

E.Gadd: Think of it as giving you the same power as the rest of those Inklings! Now! I've given you each an Ink Boi as well, I ran out of surfboards, so you each have an household items. They should all still work the same though hoho!

(Luigi is playing on top of an office chair, Tari is holding a keyboard, and Mario is goofing off with a lawn mower by running it on his head and ending up headless.)

Mario: Yep, that's a lawn mower.

Meggy: This is insulting...

Tari: Aww c'mon Meggy. I know you are not an Inkling anymore, but there's no shame in getting a little help.

Meggy: No that's stupid! I know I'm a human but my skills are still as great as ever!

(SMG4 is standing on top of a tower in the observation area, holding a megaphone.)

SMG4: Alright! Enough of your yappin'!

Meggy: And I definitely don't need a stupid gadget to help me. (She tosses her Ink Boi away.)

E.Gadd: Welp suit yourself Meggy.

(E.Gadd walks away)

SMG4: Tomorrow is the big tournament! Splatfest!! And this is going to be your final training section.

(The rest of the gang who are at the observation area cheer.)

SMG4: It's a 1-hit kill round. You get hit, you're out.

(He take out his gun)

SMG4: Now let's fiiiiiiiiiiiiiight! (He shoots his gun too hard and falls off the tower.)

''(Meggy, who is holding her Splattershot, is rushing into the middle of the arena. Just until she found Mario, who is sitting on his lawn mower is behind her. Meggy immediately shoots him and Mario use his Ink Boi to dodge the attack. And he swims in the ink and jump up in front of Meggy to ambuSh her’’)

’’’Mario:’’’ Surprise, motherfucker!

(‘’Mario is shot by Tari right before he can attack Meggy. The watching gang are all surprised because that.)''

SMG4: You're out!!

(Tari smiles at what she have done until she notices Luigi above her, grinning and holding his weapons.)

Luigi: Weegee time!

(Luigi swings his weapons in 360 degree to attack the girls. Meggy dodges his attack and Tari uses her Ink Boi to escape.)

Luigi: Oh man this is pretty tiring...

(Meggy attacks Luigi from behind.)

SMG4: Luigi's out!

(Meggy smiles but just then realizes Tari is above her.)

Tari: It's over Meggy! I HAVE THE HIGH GROUND!!

Meggy: You can't beat me, I taught you everything you know!

(She attacks Tari, and Tari use her Ink Boi to dodge the attack once again.)

Fishy Boopkins: Aww man, she's too slippery.

Bob: Meggy better starts using her Ink Boi soon.

(Meggy hides from Tari in a corner. Meggy decides to surprise Tari by throwing a Splat Bomb at her. However, Tari notices, dodges her attack, and counters Meggy.)

SMG4: And Meggy's out! Tari wins!!!

(The gang cheers.)

Tari: Woohoo! Man, these Ink Bois really do make a difference!

E.Gadd: Of course! My inventions can't be beaten.

Shroomy: Oh golly gee, that sure was amazing Tari! Yeah!

Saiko: Yeah! You kicked ass out there!

(Meggy starts getting jealous as she sees the gang cheering for Tari.)

Fishy Boopkins: You guys did really well, too!

Mario: Thanks! Mario's gonna kick everyone ass tomorrow!

Luigi: Yeah, I have a good feeling about this Splatfest.

Tari: Hehe yaaay! What do you think Meggy?

Meggy: Yeah, whatever...

(The whole gang are surprised at Meggy's reaction.)

SMG4: Meggy... are you ok?

Meggy: Yeah I'm fine...

(The gang are still worried.)

Mario: Woo! Who's ready for a pre-competition party at Meggy's???

Bob: Hell yeah, let's party!

(The gang run off. Meggy looks at her Ink Boi, wondering if she should use it.)

Mario: Hey Meggy! Let's-a-go! We are waiting for you!

Meggy: O-oh right!

Scene 3
(We cut to the party at Meggy's house. Mario and Tari are playing video games.)

Mario: Oh boy, I love Splatoon 3!

(Boopkins is singing Calamari Inkantation with his terrible voice and Bob is rapping with his deadly rapping skill, on top of not knowing the lyrics. Sakio is playing her electronic guitar and Shroomy is playing his banjo. SMG4 is chatting with Luigi and Axol.)

SMG4: And then he told me to make a 40 minute movie. And I was like "A movie?" and I went to cry for 10 hours.

(Meggy sits on a sofa, holding her drink. She seems to be worried about something. She walks away and leaves the party room. Only Axol notices it. Meggy goes to her bedroom, looking at her phone on her bed. She looks at Desti's picture.)

Meggy: Am I really ready for this? I know I promised you I'd win Splatfest, but... can I?

(We get another flashback of Desti's funeral.)

Meggy: I promise you I'll win splatfest... for us.

(We return to the present time.)

Meggy: And this is the last Splatfest ever...my last chance. (She gets a determined look on her face.) I guess I have no choice but to win! Don't you worry.

(She suddenly hears a knocking on her door.)

Axol: Hey, uhh, Meggy. Just wanted to check in and see if you were doing ok?

Meggy: Oh, Hey Axol!...I'm fine. Was just a bit tired after today.

Axol: Right! Uhh do you want to maybe... Come and chill with us?

Meggy: Uhh...

(Mario suddenly pops up out of nowhere.)

Mario: Yeah Meggy! We gonna play Pin The Tail On The Boopkins next.

Meggy: Really?! HECK YEAH! I'M DOWN!

(They return to the party area.)

Mario: Hey Boopkins!

Boopkins: Huh?

Mario: Guess what time it is?

Boopkins: NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! (He starts running away in fear.) I told you guys I hate this game! Can't we just play Yu-Gi-Oh cards instead?!

Mario: Come on! Do it for Mario's morale! Tommorrow is Splatfest day!!!

(Meggy and Axol excitedly join in.)

Scene 4
(We see Meggy, Tari, Mario, and Luigi in Inkopolis.)

Luigi: Is it too late to go back? Y'know, I'm not that good now that I think about it-

Mario: Luigi!

Luigi: Huh?

Mario: Don't be such a bitch.

Luigi: OOOOOOOOHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

Meggy: GUYS! TODAY IS THE BIG DAY! AND I KNOW WE'RE ALL NERVOUS! BUT THAT'S OK! BECAUSE WE'VE TRAINED. We are more than ready for this. I know we are. There is no way we can lose! And since-

(Something catches her attention and she stops speaking.... It's Desti. Meggy thinks she is just seeing things and closes her eyes. She opens them back up, and sure enough, Desti is gone.)

Tari: Hey Meggy...are you ok?

Meggy: Huh...yeah. I'm fine...

ALL COMPETITORS TO THE ARENA

Meggy: Alright guys. Its time.

Mario: Time to kick some ass.

Tari: Bring it on!!!

(We transition to the competition.)

Callie: Welcoooome everyone to the last final Splatfest!

Marie: Yes, According to the bosses, Splatfest just isn't "cost-effective" anyone.

Callie: So as payback, we've gone and spent all the company's money on making this... THE BIGGEST. SPLATFEST. EVER!

(The audiences in the arean begin cheering loudly.)

Marie: That's right, we have spared no expense in making this Splatfest, Super special!

Callie: This Splatfest is going to be very different from what we're normally used to.

(Marie blows a whistle.)

Marie: For Round 1, we have... The Splatfest Course!!!

Callie: Teams only have 20 minutes to brave this dangerous course, Everyone who makes it to the end will advance to the second round!

Marie: We also have a TON of competitors this time around!!!

Mario: KIDS GONNA DIE TONIGHT! (He wears boxing gloves.)

Callie: For today's round though, there is to be NO fighting! This is a match of agility and skill ONLY!

Marie: So anyone who breaks out into a fight will be disqualified.

Mario: Ohh... (He drops the gloves.)

Callie: Get hyped folks! We will begin in just a few minutes while the audiences piles in.

(Meggy is doing a quad stretch, while Mario whispers to her.)

Mario: Psst. Yo, Meggy, Now would be a really good time to take out Ink Boi.

Meggy: Nah, I don't need it.

Mario: Hmmm...

Tari: Hey guys, looks like we have a cheer squad!

(SMG4, Fishy Boopkins, Bob, and everyone else are cheering for the Splat Squad in the bleachers, except for Toad.)

Saiko: KICKASS!

Bob: Yeah, go get them! Do it for Bob!

(Toad, sitting next to Bowser, silently does nothing and slumps over, since he doesn't even wanna be there.)

Mario: LOOK AT ALL OF MARIO'S FANS!!!!

Meggy: Hehe, we have quite the friends, don't we?

???: Pfft... a team of humans?

(Meggy reacts in a shock and wears a murderous expression.)

???: Guess they'll let anyone enter Splatfest now.

Meggy: Who... said that?

Killer Ink Leader: We did.

Team Killer Ink

Killer Ink Leader: And we can't believe they let a bunch of HUMANS join.

Meggy: Why don't you get lost before I tear you a new ink hole?

Killer Ink Commando: Meggy Spletzer?! What happened to you?! What a freak! Hehehehe!

Killer Ink Sniper: What's wrong? Couldn't cut it as an Inkling?

(Killer Ink starts laughing.)

Mario: HEY STINKY! LOOK AT THIS! Ooooohhh...... (Mario flips Killer Ink the bird.)

Luigi: L-Leave Meggy alone! She's still tough and talented, even as a human!

(Killer Ink starts laughing even louder.)

Tari: It's ok Meggy, we'll show during the competition.

Meggy: Yeah. It's almost time...

Callie: ARE YOU READY?! (The competitors are indeed ready.)

Marie: IS THE AUDIENCE READY?! (The crowd cheers.)

Callie: OK! READY! GET SET!

Marie: GOOOOOOO!

(The first obstacle: Sliding a rail over a giant hole without falling in. We see that most did make it over. The same can't be said for one poor Inkling who was unlucky enough to lose their footing and fall in. Team Killer Ink makes it across in one piece, and now it's Splat Squad's turn.)

Leader: Give up before you embarrass yourselves, humans!

(Meggy gets angry.)

Luigi: Just ignore them, Meggy. Let's just worry about us. (Luigi slides down the pipe, with Mairo following suit. Meggy then slides down with no trouble.)

Mario: Nice one!

Meggy: See? I can handle myself perfectly fine! (They notice Tari is still at the top.)

Tari: G-guys? Did I tell you I'm afraid of heights?

Luigi: Don't worry, Tari! Just use your Ink Boi and you'll be fine!

(Tari looks over at another Inkling who gets on the slide, only to lose their footing and fall into the hole. She gets extremely nervous until...)

Mario: Tari? You made it over already.

(We see that Tari has unknowingly made it over the hole.)

Tari: Yay!

(The second obstacle: Trying to cross a road.)

Luigi: What? There's nothing here.

(...Filled with hidden buzz-saws, as one poor Inkling found out.)

Mario: Well, this seems safe.

Meggy: Don't worry! We got this, guys! (Meggy makes it through.)

Luigi: Just play it cool, Luigi. (The terrified plumber makes it through. Mario also makes it through, but gets decapitated in the process. Tari makes it through off-screen.)

(The third obstacle: A basketball-like game where they have to shoot hoops with Zapfish plushies. One team fails, while another wins.)

Mario: There's no way we can throw that far!

(Tari throws the Zapfish plush and uses her weapon to make the shot, completing the challenge.)

(The fourth obstacle: Avoiding water sprinklers. Splat Squad got through, mainly due to being an all human team. Others weren't as lucky.)

Mario: (Sees the Inklings writhing on the ground in pain.) What a bunch of babies. (The Splat Squad make it through with ease.)

(The fifth obstacle: Platforming. One Inkling who was standing on one platform feels rumbling, and the platform drops beneath him, sending him into the lava below, and more or less killing him.)

(Tari uses her Ink Boi to make it through. The Mario Bros. simply jump on the platforms. Meggy falls into the lava, setting her butt on fire. However, just like Mario, it gives her a boost and she lands in front of Mario.)

Callie: How'd she...

Mario: Awww. She's learned well from Mario... (Luigi is confused.)

(The sixth and final obstacle: Jumping on pads over another hole. One team got eliminated because while one member got across fine, another failed and went into the hole.)

Tari: Guys, there's the finish line!

(30 seconds left.)

Luigi: Mamma-Mia! We only got 30 seconds left! Let's go!!!! (Tari and Luigi make it through, but Mario wasn't launched far enough.)

Axol: OH NO! HE'S GONNA MISS!

Boopkins: Mario, watch out!

(Mario notices an Inkling who is also trying to make it across, se he jumps on them and makes it over to the goal post. Unfortunately, the Inkling fell into the hole. And now Meggy is the only one who needs to make it across.)

Tari: YOU'VE GOTTA USE THE INK BOI!!!

Meggy: No! I can get through this!

Tari: Come on, Meggy! You got this.

Luigi: MEGGY LOOK OUT!

(Meggy looks behind her. The leader of Team Killer Ink pushes Meggy into the pit! The villains make it through and an angered Mario charges at them.)

Mario: ALRIGHT! LEMME AT 'EM! LEMME AT 'EM! (Luigi holds him back.)

Luigi: NO, MARIO! NOT YET! WE'LL GET DISQUALIFIED!

Tari: GUYS! MEGGY!!

(Meggy, who is still falling, uses her Splat Bombs to propel herself upward. It looks like she might make it, but she hits the wall. Tari grabs her arm. Luigi is holding on to Tari's legs, and Mario is doing the same to Luigi, forming a chain.)

Tari: I got her! Pull us up! (Mario does so.)

Meggy: Thank... thank you guys...

(The timer blares.)

Callie: AND THE ROUND IS OVER!!

Marie: What a spectacular performance and amazing display of skill!!

Callie: Congrats to our 8 remaining teams! (Killer Ink, SplatSquad, Ink Brigade, Hale Hydro, Kelp Buds, Coral House, DrownZone, and Splooj.) Rest up folks because we'll be back tomorrow with Round 2!!!!

Callie and Marie: Stay fresh!

Leader: Pfft... you guys actually made it?

Killer Ink Thug: Quit while you're ahead, human.

(Meggy, ticked off, tackles Leader.)

Mario:: MAMA FUCKER! (Mario attacks Thug.)

Luigi: WHA! GUYS! NO!!

Callie: HEY YOU GUYS THERE!! THERE IS TO BE NO FIGHTING!!!

Marie: Don't do it again or you will be disqualified!

Meggy: Fine... (She walks off.)

Mario: Wait for Mario! (Leader and Thug are unconscious.)

Scene 5
(Meggy is walking alone in Inkopolis.)

Meggy: JUST WHO DO THEY THINK THEY ARE?! It shouldn't matter if I'm human or not! Discriminating against me and my friends. I'M GONNA DESTROY THEM TOMORROW! (She calms down.) Maybe some ice cream will help me cool off...

(She walks over to an ice cream truck.)

Meggy: I'll have one Scallop Vanilla ice cream.

Crusty Sean: Sorry Ma'am... We do not serve humans.

Meggy: Huh?! Why not!?

Crusty Sean: Health and safety regulations ma'am.

Meggy: That's stupid! Well I don't want your stupid ice cream anyway. I'm gonna take my business elsewhere!

(Everywhere she goes, she sees no humans allowed signs. She starts to lose it. She looks like she's about to scream, but then...)

??? Hey, you.

(Meggy turns around and sees someone. And that someone is her past Inkling self. Human Meggy looks shocked.)

Meggy (Inkling): What's wrong? You look you've seen a ghost.

(The area changes. They are now in some kind of imaginary mindscape.)

Meggy (Human): Y-You? No wait. But you're me! You can't be here!!!

Meggy (Inkling): Do you really think you'll be able to pull this off... in your current state?

Meggy (Human): Of course! I'm just as good as I ever was!

Meggy (Inkling): Are you though? I would have jumped over that last obstacle no problem. You on the other other hand...

Meggy (Human): I still made it in the end.

Meggy (Inkling): Yeah, but only with your friends' help. Admit it. We need to use that Ink Boi!

Meggy (Human): No! I don't need that stupid thing! I'm perfectly capable on my own.

Meggy (Inkling): Alright then. If you really don't care winning then suit yourself. See ya. (Inkling Meggy wanders off and vanishes into thin air.)

Meggy (Human): HEY WAIT! Come back here! We're not done yet!-

(The screen suddenly brights up and cuts to Meggy waking up at night. It was all just a dream.)

Scene 6
(In Inkopolis the next morning, Meggy throws her Ink Boi in the trash can and heads into the stadium, Nearby, Axol is watching with a concerned look on his face.)

Callie: WELCOME BACK TO DAY 2 OF SPLATFEST!!!

Marie: In today's round, we're playing something special we like to call... TOWER DEFENSE!

Callie: We've already held first match earlier today and Killer Ink has already won and have moved to the finals.

Callie: For this 2nd and final match! We have four teams in total competing for last spot in the finals.

Marie: Now the rules, This is a battle of points. The first team to score 100 points win!

Callie: But Marie, how do we get points?

Marie: I'm glad you asked Callie. (She presses a button, and Squidward appears out of water.)

Squidward: What are those Neanderthals up to? (Callie presses a button. A sentry appears and incinerates Squidward.) AHHHHHHHHHH!!!

(The scoreboard shows the Squid Sisters have earned 1 point.)

Callie: This is tower defense so an INFINITE wave of monsters will be coming at the teams.

Marie: Each kill is a point. Simple!

Callie: But watch out though! (Callie pulls out one of the Splat Dualies pistols and shoots Marie.)

Callie: If you get splattered, your team will lose 10 points! NOW WHO'S READY?!

(The four teams are assembled. Axol looks worried.)

Luigi: Mama mia...

Meggy: We got this, guys!

Marie: LET THE GAMES BEGIN!!

(''The round commences, and the four teams fight the monsters. Meggy shoots three monsters, Tari gets a strike by throwing a Splat Bomb at four monsters, Mario depresses a giant monster by flipping it off and shooting it’’)

‘’’Mario:’’’ FUCK YOU!

(‘’A terrified Luigi cause a large group of monsters to simply blow up by taking his shirt off and revealing his muscles. The crowd cheers.'')

Tari: Hey! We're winning!

(Mario notices that one of the DrownZone members is charging in and killing monsters.)

Mario: HEY! THESE GUYS ARE TAKING OUR KILLS!!!

Meggy: Get our of here! (She shoots the Inkling, but misses.) Damn it. Just focus on getting points!

(The Ink Brigade is in the lead.)

Tari: Guys. We have to start taking other people's kills too. Otherwise, we won't stand a chance.

Meggy: Ok! Spread out!

(The fight continues. The four teams battle amongst each other as the monsters continue to fall. Eventually, Meggy gets hit, costing the Splat Squad 10 points.)

Luigi: OH, NO!!!

Meggy: Crap, sorry guys!

Mario: Don't worry! Just keep murdering!

(The fight continues. Mario destroys multiple monsters at once.)

Tari: NICE, MARIO!

Luigi: Oh, man! Guys, look! We're so close to winning!

Callie: WE'RE ALMOST THERE!

Meggy: GUYS! GO GO GO!

(The fight continues. Suddenly, Mario sees something suspicious. Unfortunately, the siren blares and the match ends.)

Callie: AAAAND TIME!

Marie: THE INK BRIGADE WINS!!!!

Callie: WHAT AN EPIC BATTLE! Ink Brigade, you'll be moving to the finals!

(The Ink Brigade cheers in victory. Meggy looks heartbroken.)

Meggy: I can't believe-...Desti, I...I LET YOU DOWN. (She gets on her knees and starts crying.)

Mario: No Meggy, it's not your fault it's-

Meggy: IT IS MY FAULT! IF I JUST SWALLOWED MY PRIDE AND USE THE INK BOI... I WOULD'VE BEEN ABLE TO HELP YOU GUYS AND WOULD HAVE WON!

Luigi: Meggy... we...

(A tearful Meggy runs away from her team and leaves the arena...)

Tari: (Notices that Mario is acting suspicious.) What is it, Mario?

Mario: Mario smells something fishy...

Scene 7
(Meggy is sitting on the roof of a skyscraper. It is nighttime.)

Meggy: (Crying.) I'm...sorry...

Desti(?): Don't be sad...

Meggy: WHAT?!

(Meggy shockingly turns around and sees Axol behind her.)

Axol: I said don't be sad... There's not much else I can really say. But, maybe I can take your mind off things? (He holds up the Ink Boi. Meggy gets up.) Hehe, I got the Professor to give ol' Inkweaver a little upgrade too. (He holds up the Inkweaver.)

Meggy: I...I don't think now's a good time Axol.

Axol: Nonsense! Now is the BEST time to kick back and just have some fun.

(Axol tosses the Ink Boi to Meggy. He runs off the roof on his newly improved Inkweaver, splats the side of the building, and slides down. Meggy looks down in surprise.)

Meggy: Screw it.

(She jumps off and joins Axol on their sliding trip down the building. They laugh as they keep going in and out of the ink, eventually sliding off a ramp. Meggy gets the feeling of nostalgia as she stays immobile in mid air.)

Meggy: I missed what this felt like...

Scene 8
(Mario, Luigi, and Tari are investigating the Tower Arena.)

Luigi: Why are we back the the Tower Defense Arena?

Tari: Yeah...I really feel like should be with Meggy right now.

Mario: Hmmmmm...

Luigi: Mario!! Mario!!

(Mario searches the arena, until he stumped across a controller.)

Mario: AHA!!!

(Mario presses a button, and a cannon appears, shooting out Squidward dummies.)

Mario: I KNEW IT!

Tari: Fake Squidwards and an illegal trap?!

Mario: Mario thought he saw something fishy!

Luigi: What...What does this mean?

Tari: It means...IT MEANS THE INK BRIGADE CHEATED!!!

Scene 9
(Meggy and Axol slide back to top of the building.)

Axol: So you feel any better?

Meggy: Yeah...Just wish I didn't have to rely on this stupid thing... (She lightly kicks the Ink Boi.)

Axol: There's nothing wrong with relying on it...I'm the greatest manga artist in the world!

Axol: But even I need the Inkweaver to unlock my true potential.

(Axol pulls out a piece of paper on the floor and uses the Inkweaver to draw and summon Ryu.)

Meggy: It's not the same...

(Ryu collapses and fades away.)

Axol: (Frustrated.) Well why not? I mean, you already use a Splattershot when competing. What's the difference between that and an Ink Boi?

Meggy: BECAUSE WHEN I WAS AN INKLING, I DIDN'T NEED AN INK BOI!!!! (She throws the Ink Boi on the floor.) I could just do things...normally...

Axol: ...You're right. You're not an Inkling anymore. But you never stopped being you. You're just Meggy... and that's all the world can ever ask of you.

Axol: Being an Inkling's overrated.

(Axol picks up the Ink Boi and hands it to Meggy.)

Axol: Just be the best Meggy you can be...

Meggy: The best I can be...

(We get a flashback.)

''Meggy (Inkling): Admit it. We need to use that Ink Boi!''

(We return to the present scene.)

Meggy: Thanks Axol...

Axol: Anytime...Beanie girl.

Meggy: Wish you had taught me this lesson before I lost Splatfest though.

Axol: Yeah...I'm sorry about that.

(Without warning, Callie and Marie show up.)

Callie and Marie: MEGGY SPLETZER!

Meggy: (Terrified.) ........................Yes?

Callie: Congratulations, you are back in Splatfest!

Meggy: WHAT?! But how???

Callie: Well... (Mario runs her and Marie over, followed by Luigi and Tari.)

Mario: Mario can answer that!

Luigi: We investigated the Ink Brigade.

Tari: And we figured out they cheated the last game with an illegal trap.

Mario: Hey, Mario did all the work! I wanted to tell Meggy!

Callie: Yeah... so the Ink Brigade got disqualified.

Marie: And as the runners up in points, you guys go to the next round by default.

(Mario celebrates.)

Tari: Hear that, Meggy?

Luigi: You still have one more chance!

Meggy: I still have one more chance... I still have one more chance!!! (She starts crying.)

Tari: Aw, Meggy, if you cry, I'll cry! It'll be okay!

Luigi: Yeah! We're your friends, we'll do anything to help you achieve your dreams.

Meggy: Thank you guys so much! I don't know how to repay you!

(Mario walks over and hands Meggy her Splattershot.)

Mario: Just do your best, okay?

(A teary-eyed Meggy looks at all her friends and happily takes the Splattershot.)

Meggy: Let's do this!

Callie: See you! Hope you're ready for the GRAND FINALE!!!

Meggy: Oh, we'll be ready. And we're gonna win!

(She and her team shout in excitement as we pan up to the night sky above.)

Scene 10
(We return to the mindscape land. Human Meggy once again meets Inkling Meggy. Human Meggy extends her hand out for a handshake. Inkling Meggy, still a little bit skeptical, stares for a few seconds before returning the handshake. Inkling Meggy suddenly disappears. Human Meggy is suddenly filled with more confidence, when suddenly...)

???: Hey.

(Meggy turns around. It's Desti... She looks the same, but her hair shadow covers her eyes.)

Meggy: DESTI?!

Desti: So you actually managed to make it to the grand finale, huh? How does it feel to be so close fulfilling your lifelong dream?

Meggy: I couldn't care less about my dream. That's not why I'm here. I'm here because I made a promise to you... and I'm going to keep it.

Desti: I know you will.

(The mindscape suddenly vibrates.)

Scene 11
(It's the final day of Splatfest.)

Callie: AAAND IT IS TIME FOR THE FINAL ROUND OF SPLATFEST FOLKS!

Marie: WHAT AN AMAZING TOURNAMENT IT'S BEEN SO FAR!

Callie: To end it all off, the final round will be... TURF WAR! That's right, there's no better way to end this than in the same way it all started.

Marie: Standard Rules. A timer will be set. The team to cover the most land in ink by the end wins.

Callie: Now let's introduce our final competitors! We have... SplatSquad!

Marie: And on the other side, we have... Killer Ink!

Meggy: Can't wait to finally kick their butts.

Mario: Mario's gonna kill some bitches!

Callie: Are you guys ready?

(Crowd cheers.)

Marie: Then let's.... GO!!!!!!

(The match commences, and the teams fight. Meggy takes out Commando, Tari takes out Thug, Sniper takes out Luigi, and Mario (With Meggy's help.) takes out Leader and a revived Commando. Suddenly, Tari, Mario, and Luigi all get taken out.)

Meggy: GUYS!!! (Killer Ink surrounds Meggy. They attack, but Meggy avoids them. Using her bombs, she takes out Commando, Sniper, and Thug.)

Marie: Triple kill!

Callie: 1 minute left!!!!!!

(Leader attacks Meggy.)

Leader: What's wrong? Tired already? (In Desti's voice.) That all you got?

Meggy: (Gets up.) I'm just getting started. (She throws her Splattershot.) CATCH!

(Leader catches the Splattershot. Meggy slides over and then kicks the .52 Gal out of Leader's grasp, grabs her Splattershot, and points it at Leader's head.)

Meggy: Thanks for holding that for me. (She takes out Leader and the crowd goes WILD!)

(Fifteen seconds left.)

(Mario, Luigi, and Tari are pinned down by Commando and Thug, but Meggy takes them out.)

(Ten seconds left.)

(SplatSquad go all out.)

(Five seconds left!)

(Luigi takes out Sniper.)

Leader: NOOOODOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

(Three seconds! Two seconds!)

(Meggy leaps off a platform with her Splattershot aimed. Desti as a ghost appears and aims her Blaster as the screen fades to white. The timer blares.)

Callie: AND TIME IS UP!!!

Marie: Please wait while we tally the scores!

(The gang and Killer Ink wait.)

Callie: And the winner is...

'Callie and Marie:  TEAM SPLATSQUAD!!!! '

Mario: WOOO!

Tari: OH MY GOSH... WE WON!?

Luigi: I don't believe it!!!

(The crowd cheers. An angry Leader kicks Thug.)

Meggy: We won? We won... Desti...

(The gang run over, with Toad lagging behind. SMG4, Saiko, and Axol lift Meggy and Tari off the ground. Bowser, Bob, and Shroomy do the same for the Mario Bros. The champions are tossed into the air.)

SMG4's Gang (sans SplatSquad): SplatSquad! SplatSquad!

SMG4: We're so proud of you guys!

Saiko: I KNEW YOU COULD DO IT!

Axol: Never doubted you for a second.

Bob: Let's celebrate! Where all the chicks at?

Boopkins: Guys! Party at Meggy's!

Shroomy: Oh, golly-gee! Let's go!

E. Gadd: HEY! WHERE'S MY THANK YOU FOR MY INVENTIONS?!

Scene 12
(At the apartment, the gang stand around a golden trophy depicting a squid.)

Boopkins: Was it scary? How'd you find it?

Mario: I only broke 5 bones this time!

Saiko: Who knew you could hurt people so badly, Tari? (Tari grins at her friend.)

Luigi: Yeah! I'm really proud of us! We pulled off something amazing together!

SMG4: Now that you've won, this is probably it for Splatoon-related adventures! Unless...

(Before SMG4 could finish, Bob pushes him aside holding a boom box.)

Bob: Enough yapping! Let's get this party started!

Shroomy: Put your hands in the air! (The gang dances, except for Meggy who is sitting on the sofa. Axol sits next to her.)

Axol: Congrats again, Meggy.

Meggy: Hey, Axol... thank you.

Axol: Me? I didn't do much, that was all you!

Meggy: You... you really helped me discover a lot about myself and what I really wanted.

Axol: Hehe, well I'm glad you were open to accepting help in the end.

Meggy: Thank you.

Axol: No problem... Meggy.

Meggy: I'll be right back. (She gets up to leave, but not before turning back to look at her friends.)

Scene 13
(Meggy goes up to the roof. She stares quietly at the sunset, not knowing that Desti has appeared beside her...)

Desti: Well if it isn't little miss Splatfest Champion.

(The shadow coverings disappear. Now we can see her eyes.)

Desti: How does a scrub like you manage to win Splatfest?

Meggy: Well you see i have these thing called "friends". Though I'd understand if you don't know what those are.

(Desti laughs.)

Desti: ...So what are you doing to do now?

Meggy: What do you mean?

Desti: Oh come on. All I've seen you for the past few months is train for Splatfest and be sad. And as much fun as it's been to see you cry because of me... You gotta move on with your life.

Meggy: I know. It's just...so hard to forget about you.

Desti: Well, let me make it easier for you then.

(Desti calmly walks over and hugs Meggy, who silently returns the embrace...)

Desti: Goodbye Meggy. Thank you for keeping your promise.

Meggy: (Tearing up.) Good...Goodbye Desti.

(Desti releases from the hug and smiles one last time before dissolving away. Meggy looks up to see Desti's spirit fly up into the sunset. Desti is finally at peace. She suddenly hears Mario and Boopkins shouting.)

Mario (offscreen): HEY, STAND STILL!

Boopkins (offscreen): No, leave me be!

Meggy: Hey, guys! Let me join! (She goes over to join the game.)

Boopkins (offscreen): Help me, Meggy!

Mario (offscreen): TRY IT, MEGGY! PIN THE TAIL ON BOOPKINS!

Boopkins (offscreen): No, not you too!

Meggy (offscreen): Come here, Boopkins!!!

Saiko (offscreen): Get him!

Tari (offscreen): Careful!

Luigi (offscreen): Wah!

SMG4 (offscreen): YEAH, GET HIM!

Bob (offscreen): Get his green ass!

Boopkins (offscreen): GUYS!

(As all of this is going on, we get one last look at the sunset. We will always remember Desti and the victory of the SplatSquad...)

(The End.)
