Makai

"Makai?" Ocean called out to me nervously. "Is something wrong?" I was staring at him, frozen in place as I looked at what he had changed into.
"Y..y..you're not a Merman." My words rang through the echoing pool room.
"What?" Ocean looked down at himself then, and his eyes popped open.
Ocean was seeing the same things that I was. He didn't have a tail, at all. He didn't have the fins on his arms that I have. He wasn't metallic at all. He looked nothing like a Merman. Honestly, I had suspected it. His trident color was not the same as mine.
