"Ouch" panicking, crying, breathless, helpless, blood, arrow... Having your loved ones die is one thing but seeing your loved ones die is infuriating. It's because of me... I came to the surface when I'm not supposed to.
"Are you okay?" said by a child's voice, I looked at her in panic. A human! But I was shock when I saw her eyes, her eyes with a look of concern and sadness. She's walking towards me but I can't move a muscle. I must get out of here... move... she's going to kil-
Warm. Her little hands are so warm. Touching my cheeks while wiping my tears with her thumb "Don't be scared, I'll help you." Help me? A human will help me? She then grabs the arrow that was struck at my tail.
I was supposed to die, that arrow should've struck my heart but my parents saved me and my tail is the one that was hit. Then another arrow came that hit my parents, I couldn't save them...
"Ahhhh!!!" I screamed as the little girl pull the arrow and wrapped my tail with a piece of clothing that I don't know what it called. "There it should be good now" she said while smiling and I didn't realize that I'm also smiling. "Don't cry, okay?" She asked.

"No! he is not dangerous! He is kind!" the little girl said firmly with her body covering me, all I can see was her beautiful hair that is red as the sun flowing with the wind. "Get away from him kid! You don't know what that creature will do to us!" "MEREDITH!" an old guy on a horse coming this way shouted. It's the guy who killed my parents. I remember that scary face, the face that looks down on us. Escape now Shorey! You can't let them catch you or kill you! GO! As I swim back to the ocean. "Don't lose an arrow my daughter is still there!" I heard someone say it. I looked back and saw the little girl grabbed by that scary man while she refuses and crying saying "He's my friend! He's my friend! Don't hurt him!" I want to go after her but I just escaped, if I go after her they will kill me. I'm sorry little girl, I can't...
