"I think I just met the happiest person in the world!" Mina spoke excitedly to the group of girls sitting, Maya playing around with a small plushie. Beatrix was on her phone, lollipop in her mouth. Ryoka, feet on the table, playing a game on her console.

"Did you take in another stray? Mina you can't be doing that-" Beatrix was the first to comment, and Mina quickly shook her head. She looked up at Mina in slight surprise, and Maya also looked up from her plush. Ryoka was too invested in her game to care, until noticing the silence and briefly looking up.

"Guess who's a big fan of ours and was so happy to get to see the Dualie Queen Mina?" Mina bragged a bit, and Beatrix rolled her eyes.

"What, you got Splattershot to love you?"

"Actually yes, I did."

That caught their attention even more. The four girls were apart of a paintball squad, Crowned Ink. While Crowned Ink was pretty impressive, they weren't still famously known by the rest of the world. But Splattershot, they were a famous company, broadcasting all sorts of creative and interesting spins on the normal paintball ways.

"Woah...How did you manage that?" Ryoka asked, setting down her game, and the three leaned in. Mina smiled at finally having their full attention.

"Remember that intro video we did?" Mina brought up, and pulled out her phone. Showing them a video of the four of them showing off their paintball skills in a more flashy manner.

"I'm Mina, the Dualie Queen!" "I'm Beatrix, the Power Empress!" "I'm Maya, the Scary Princess!" "I'm Ryoka, the Sneak Goddess!"

"AND WE ARE CROWNED INK!"

Maya smiled at the memories and asked, "So what did Splattershot tell you?" She picked up the plushie and played with its ears.

"So they said they felt so lucky to get to meet me and that they'd want to meet the rest of the 'Royal Court' tomorrow, so guess what we're doing?" Mina smiled, holding up four VIP passes to the building. The girls each took one, and examined it with growing excitement.

"Heck yeah! We'll end up OWNING Splattershot by the end of this!" Ryoka pumped her fist. Her smile was contagious, and caused the other girls to laugh. They all put their hands in the middle and counted down,

"Three..."

"...two..."

"...one!"

"CROWNED INK, SO ROYALLY SWEET!"
