I screamed when the monster bit my arm.
So I hit it again with my tail, causing it to fly away.
Shit! Why is the wound taking so long to heal??
This is only going to attract more monsters.
I swam over to Crimson and Sharlene.
They no longer had nets or leaves on them.
There were so many monsters!!!
We looked at the leaves, where something was swimming and getting electrocuted.
"AAAAAAHH!"
It looked like an electric snake and it was coming towards us.
We ducked.
Almost!
But then a monster grabbed me again.
I was about to hit it with my tail when the black siren punched it and pulled me away.
"Here!!" said the black siren woman.
We entered a hole, and I almost got bitten by that electric eel or snake or whatever it was.
Crimson was here too; there was a cave.
We backed away because we were cornered by these black sirens in the cave.
But my wound still wasn't healing.
"What?!! It's still not healing, Xian?" Sharlene asked.
"They helped us with that electric eel or whatever it was called earlier, right?" Crimson whispered.
I nodded.
I swam to the hole and peeked out, and was shocked when the electric fish almost got me.
I was pulled back by the black siren.
"Whoa! That was close," I whispered.
I quickly moved away when I saw he was holding my waist.
"How do we get out of here?" Sharlene asked.
I looked around.
Tss. It's so dark.
We were surprised when there was light; the woman was holding a light source.
So it was bright now.
They were looking at us.
We swam and looked around the cave.
"s**t! Let's fight that electric fish," Sharlene said.
"Oh, you go ahead, since you're not affected by electricity," Crimson scoffed.
"I told you...what are we going to do here with them??" Sharlene asked.
"Let's just be quiet and wait for the electric fish to leave," I said.
We sat on a rock.
They were just quiet, though they could speak.
'Ms. Xian, where are you?'
I closed my eyes when Bluperrin spoke in my mind.
'We're trapped in a cave, there's an electric fish outside,' I said in my mind.
'Be careful, Ms. Xian, we'll find you,' Bluperrin said.
'Take your time, don't rush,' I replied.
I opened my eyes.
"Blurperrin will find us," I said.
"Ychesia said the same, will they find us?" Sharlene asked.
I shrugged and yawned.
"Yawn I'm sleepy," Crimson said.
The three of us yawned.
I stretched.
I looked at the black sirens and sirens.
They didn't seem to mean us any harm.
I lay down on the rock.
"Hey, are you going to sleep there?" Sharlene asked.
"No, I'm just lying down..." I said.
I closed my eyes and heard the black sirens and sirens whispering.
"Why did we help them?" the girl asked.
"How are we going to get out of here now? We're trapped with them," the boy said.
"They can't hurt us, so calm down, guys."
Huh? We are the ones who would hurt them?
"But admit it, they are beautiful... the one with the shell crown must be a princess."
"This is the first time I've seen a pure gold mermaid."
"Shhh... they'll hear us."
"Looks like the three of them are asleep."
I peeked at Sharlene and Crimson.
I sat up when I saw the two of them sleeping.
"Hey, you guys are tough... you're really sleeping," I said and tapped Crimson on the shoulder, but Crimson slapped my hand away.
"D-don't bother me, hmm," she said and went back to sleep.
Leave it... they're still asleep.
They were back to back, sleeping.
I swam close to the hole and looked.
Geez... the electric fish was still there.
"Hey, go away," I said.
'I'm hungry! Why should I leave?!'
It growled; only I could understand.
"Is it my fault you're hungry... get lost! We want to leave!" I said.
But it suddenly charged at me, so I backed off.
"Stay hungry then!!" I said.
"I'll eat you, mermaid!!" it said.
"If you can!! Come on, get closer!! Bleh! You can't reach me!"
Hahaha! I must be going crazy.
I looked at the black ones.
They looked confused.
"You can understand him?!" the man asked in surprise.
I nodded.
"What did he say?" the woman asked.
"He said he's hungry, so he's going to eat us... it looks like he fancies me, tsk. If he can," I said and looked at the electric fish.
When will this thing leave???
I felt my stomach rumble, so I swam and looked for something to eat.
KRRRRUUJNGGG
I'm hungry....
I almost went cross-eyed when an apple appeared in front of me.
I took it and looked at who it came from.
The black siren who pulled me.
"Thanks."
I said softly, but he just nodded.
I ate the apple.
I swam back to the hole and it was still there!
So I returned to my spot and sat on the rock.
It's boring... it's so quiet....
What to do here? 30 minutes have passed.
The electric fish is still there.
Ugh! I'm getting bored... these two are just sleeping.
Where are Bluperrin and the others???
I looked at Crimson, who was sound asleep.
I hit her with my tail.
She woke up.
"You're just sleeping there," I said.
"If you don't want to sleep, make yourself sleepy, Xian... you're just jealous of us," Sharlene said and closed her eyes again.
"You're jealous, just like us," Crimson said and closed his eyes again.
"I'm getting bored... these two just keep sleeping, I'll really put you to sleep there," I muttered.
I turned away from the black sirens.
I looked at the bite on my arm.
Why is it taking so long to heal???
I closed my eyes tightly as it throbbed.
"AAH!" I gasped in pain and covered my mouth.
I didn't want them to hear me.
I glanced around, and they weren't looking at me.
It hurts!! Why is this happening?!!
I looked at the bite.
There were teeth left behind.
I bit my lip and removed the teeth.
There were four of them.
"I can't avoid screaming from the pain."
I quickly removed two and threw them away.
I was panting.
The pain was intense! The bite was deep.
AAAAAH! it hurts.
To make things worse, I fell, so I sat back down on the rock.
I didn't care if they heard me.
I just wanted to remove these.
I grabbed the last two teeth.
I inhaled and exhaled.
Then I pulled quickly.
I screamed from the pain.
I looked at the teeth, trembling.
Shit! They were really long....
I was surprised when I fell and someone caught me.
It was the black siren who pulled me.
I held tightly to her arm as my wound throbbed.
Why is it still not healing???
"Xian, are you okay?!!"
These two must have woken up when I screamed.
"Let me treat it... hold her," Crimson said.
The black siren adjusted his position.
We were sitting on the rock, and he supported my back.
Crimson placed his hand on my arm, and it lit up.
I felt the throbbing, so I gripped her arm tightly.
Until it fully healed.
"Why didn't you tell us you had a wound?" Sharlene said.
"I thought it would just heal on its own," I said and moved away from the black siren.
Crimson and I looked at the black sirens and sirens.
"What are you doing here?!!!" the black siren woman shouted angrily.
"You're mad... we were just exploring and ended up here," Crimson said.
We backed off when the woman released black water.
"This is bad... let's do it," I said.
The two women released black water.
"Sharlene, let's go... handle that electric fish," Crimson said.
BOOOOMMMM!
We dodged the black water from the two women.
It was like an explosion.
Because of the explosion, the hole got bigger, and we quickly swam out.
We swam through the leaves, and this fish was coming after me.
"You're really hungry, huh," I said and let it chase me.
'I WILL EAT YOU!!'
it said.
But I swam fast until I was behind Sharlene.
Sharlene produced an electric whip.
So they dealt with the fish.
I dodged the black-gray water.
I teleported behind the man.
His eyes widened as he looked for me.
I hit him with my tail, sending him flying to the two black women fighting Crimson.
"Good timing, Xian," Crimson said.
We stood side by side.
We dodged together.
The electric fish fell to the ground, crashing.
Go eat dirt.
We looked at Sharlene, who swam towards us.
We looked at the black sirens and sirens.
We were shocked when chains appeared on our hands.
"What the hell is this?!!" Crimson said.
And we were dropped to the ground.
We struggled, hitting the monsters approaching us with our tails.
I screamed when a monster as big as me pinned me down.
I grabbed its neck when it tried to bite me.
Shit! The chain on my hands is in the way.
Sharlene and Crimson did the same.
"You can't escape," said one black siren.
I struggled to push the monster away.
That siren must be a beast summoner.
"AAAH!" I heard Crimson and Sharlene scream.
What should I do?!!
I closed my eyes.... and when I opened them, the chain was gone.
I punched the monster while lying down, swam over, and hit its belly.
It was buried underneath.
I swam to where the two were and finished the monster.
They also got rid of their chains.
I could feel Bluperrin and the others above.
They wouldn't see us because of the leaves.
The three of us looked up.
Someone grabbed me and slammed me hard against the stone wall.
OUCH!! THAT HURTS!
I closed my eyes from the pain.
I sat down.
I opened my eyes.
It was the one who pulled me.
I felt my back bleeding.
It hit the hard, pointed rocks... stones.
"We didn't do anything to you!" Crimson shouted as he was chained.
Sharlene was running around.
"You shouldn't do that," said the one in front of me.
I could see pity in his eyes.
I stood up and he slammed me against the stone again.
Double the pain!!!!
I lay down.
It hurts!!! I'm bleeding.
My wound heals quickly but it still hurts.
I can still feel the pain.
I teleported to Crimson.
He was sitting while chained.
I leaned on Crimson.
"Damn! Your back is bleeding, Xian!"
"This will go away...." I whispered.
Sharlene sat beside us, also chained.
They chained me too.
They were in front of us now.
