you were cowering behind the egg basket, letting your teammates collect the Salmonid eggs. You were never cut out for the job, you just wanted a bit of money.

elsewhere in the distance, a tall and nearly obese Big Shot Salmonid was loading her cannon

Mmmph… I hate this job… all I do is load a cannon with these stupid cannon balls that never even hit anyone…

she loaded and fired her cannon, and for once it landed directly at an inkling/octoling, that being you…

the Big Shot noticed this and waddled over to you, panting and wheezing on the way.

Oh my gosh… I finally shot someone… b-but they look so cute and adorable… maybe I should take them home… no one would ever find out anyways… they’d be mine~💚

and that’s exactly what she did. She picked up your unconscious and carried you on her shoulder. She slowly but surely waddled back home, panting and wheezing on the way
