*Hey my lovelies, the image above is from Pinterest. The credit goes to the pinner. Thank you for all your views and comments. Keep on following for there is more high tide coming up. Thank you =)*
Friends can be just as distracting as enemies. Friends can turn into your enemy at any moment and you are left unsure whether you can trust anyone anymore.
Max helps me out of my tail as I rub the side of my forehead and Austin gives me my suit back. That took a lot of energy from me!
I had to keep up posture while battling songs and voices in my head along with trying not to get choked to death by an unknown force.
I really do love the team I have and I also love how the children are all flabbergasted when seeing a 'real' mermaid.
Well, when he is ready, the adults and children will see a really 'real' merman.
"Good job Sarah. Come on, guys, time for lunch." John comes in clapping and smiling like a seal.
We head off to the staff room which is on the second floor right next to the staff meeting room.
I first go to my locker, open it with my PIN and retrieve my bag with my food. I walk out closing my locker and head to the staffroom.
Austin, Jordan, Mike, and John are there laughing at a joke and a few other employees are around getting coffee or warming up their food in the black microwaves.
"So, where is Jack?" I ask my group of friends looking around for the dead man I am going to most likely kill if I see his face again.
"Oh, I put him in repainting the sign, fence, and walls outside of the aquarium. I heard what he has done and let me tell you, I am mad. He knows how much time it took to get Stella back to swimming and eating out of the employers' hands." John sighs in defeat, slouching in his chair and tugs his hair forward.

"Yeah, this is not good. Especially, that Stella is close to the end of her years, this scare is going to end her for sure. Unless you can ask Poseidon for some magic kelp for her trauma?" Mike jokes slightly, chuckling under his breath.
Hmm, that gives me an idea!
"Very funny, Mike. But, you did give me an idea about the kelp." I take out my laptop I go onto during my breaks and search for an old friend of my mother's.
'Kelptide Wonders! Food For Sea Friends and Treasure To Obtain In Your Home'.
I went there once with my mother when I was 10, and the artifacts he had scared me that I never wanted to go back.
My mother said the kelp, the owner has does wonders in case we have a sick fish or the sea creature has trauma that needs serious healing. I might have to keep her word on that.
"Kelptide Wonders. Are you sure about that place?" Austin asks while John straightens in his chair intrigued by the name.
"Yeah, the guy who owns the place has kelp that can help sick or trauma-filled sea creatures. If there is any hope of getting Stella back healthy fast; it's him," I tell the group and search some more on the site.
"Ooohhh, sandy shaving cream for water silk skin. I might have to come and buy that for myself. I keep trying the shaving cream locally but my legs still itch." Jordan announces and I roll my eyes.
"Really!? Blue lagoon coral on sale 2 for 4$! Reduced price? Does that stuff even work?" Austin asks a bit cautious about the product.
*Sorry for the sudden break in the magnificent story but the products and place I have mentioned are not real. If you wish to use the name or create such products, consult me in the comments below. ASK ME, DON'T STEAL! Thank you and you may resume reading=)*

I scroll through and find what I need. It says there is only 1 available so I have to go and get it right now. I click the pre-order on the product and insert my name with the time I will arrive at the place.
"Wait, you are actually going?" Austin asks me. John, with his head tilting back, lifts his head up and looks at me as I stand up.
"Yeah, as you said, if this stuff helps Stella, I am taking every shot. I am going to be back soon." I walk out with my purse and laptop back in the bag.
"Go ahead! I will keep up the fort while your gone." John calls and I head out.
I only put my beige jacket on not wanting to waste time when there is a sick dolphin to be healed. I am doing everything in my power to prevent Stella from killing herself in her trauma. Let's hope I make it and save her!
3rd Person
As Sarah runs out to get the antidote for Stella, John stands up and heads to his office to make a call.
"Where are you going?" Mike asks watching his boss walk off with an inquisitive facial expression.
"Oh, just to make a call and to have someone feed the merman," John says not even looking at Mike.
John walks out the door and when Mike hears he is long gone, he leans over; placing his elbows on his knees.
"Guys, he is up to something." Jordan and Austin look at Mike confused.
"What do you mean? Of course, he is up to something; he is going to make a call." Austin says while Jordan shifts her gaze between the males nervously.
Mike picks it up. Mike is very observant when it comes to his friends.
He raises his eyebrows at Jordan wanting to know why the girl is nervous. She is never nervous unless she knows something the rest doesn't.
"Jordan, is there something you wish to share with us?" Mike asks keeping a strong gaze on her.
"No," she said that too loud and too fast. Austin leans in hearing the quick response and slight squeak in her tone. Jordan is one of those people everyone can read like an open book.
"I mean, *clears throat*, I am trying to remember if I fed the otters and I am nervous that John might see I didn't." Mike slowly nods still gazing at the girl. Austin narrows his eyebrows, doubting the girl but giving her the benefit of doubt; he aks.
"Maybe go and double-check?" Jordan nods, scurrying off.
"Okay. Now, I find something is definitely up. We must investigate." Mike gathers his things and walks out the door.
Austin sighs and follows his friend knowing what he will do, can't be good. Curiosity will get both of them in trouble!

Midthalion Saga
+++Working on new chapters. Share what I've posted with your friends and family! Be sure to build strong bonds with those who are important to you. We only have each other in this world for so long!+++ Can Roderick XXIII gather together and train a party of adventurers to clear out Madeon Caves and bring peace to the wildmarches of Midthalion? Sent from his home monastery in the west to the wildmarches of Midthalion, Roderick the Holy Avenger is devoted to living out his oath to bring the Holy Light to the dark corners of the world. He enlists the help of an old friend, Ulrich Vogelbrandt the dwarf druid, to train and prepare a fighting force capable of defending the west from the evil they both see gathering and growing in the east. Eoroth is an ode to Tolkienesque epic fantasy, Robert E Howard and H.P. Lovecraft's pulp fiction, and Gygaxian Dungeons & Dragons. I like to write about serious topics because I think it's fun. I hope it makes for a fun read. Place: Eoroth, a vast, flat world with many continents set in oceans that reach out and mingle with the Celestial Sea. Our story takes place on the continent of Thalion in the middle, unsettled region called Midthalion. Peoples: Races in Eoroth aren't different species; the species of man is just incredibly diverse, consisting of many known races (and perhaps some unknown). There are no humans in Thalion. Thalion's races include variations of elves, dwarves, halflings (billowits), pierros (clownish men), bergeracs (long-nosed and swarthy men of honour), orcs, trolls, goblins, and hobgobs. The Church: There's one dominant religion in Westhalion. The faith of the elves is an analogue to Roman Catholicism while the dwarves practice an Eastern Orthodox analogue. (Forgive me for not having figured out names yet.) The practitioners worship a triune god (the All-Father, Son-of-All, and Holy Light). There are many powers in heaven, all created by God. These include the Twelve High Thrones, individual, created beings who take on the role of guiding mankind in different aspects, drawing them closer and closer to God. (That should be the essentials. I could write pages on the theology. Comment where something's unclear in the story.) Natural World: There are plants and animals in Eoroth, but the world is also inhabited by spirits called aeons. Aeons are transformative beings; in the wild, they'll change based on whatever is happening nearby. Pollute a pond? Expect to see toxic toad-men running around. Leave a bunch of dead bodies strewn across a battlefield? Expect the place to become haunted with ghouls and ghasts. Druids are important for making sure that the aeons are pacified; that their needs are met so that they don't become rampaging monsters. Where the wilderness becomes overgrown, so too do the aeons. Aeons and People: Long ago, men learned how to trap aeons in stone tablets and use them for war. Now, anyone can capture an aeon into a special staff made by a druid. Men train, raise, and bond with these aeons. Druids often build entire ranches devoted to raising healthy aeons as allies and companions. Aeons are divided into twelve known families, and the church sees these as corresponding with the Twelve Thrones in Heaven. Direction: My goal is to get the story to one million words by June next year. I have tons of content in mind for the world. I want to release novels set in different ages of the world depicting different historical events. I hope to expand the setting into a tabletop role-playing game as well as a series of old-school JRPGs. But, it all begins with writing some stories and publishing my novels.

Once you go Wuxxia you never go back. [Not a Parody but moreso a revised wuxxia.]
Robert Nord wakes up from a deep sleep, one he regreted to ever take. Instead of waking up to his well-known, stark, eggshell-white ceiling, atop his luxurious 800€ mattress with down feather duvet and fluffy cushions, he finds himself staring at molden planks of wood, a stench of sweat, blood and iron mellowing in the air. A world of swords that sunder oceans and fists that crack mountainsides. This is a world known throughout the dimensions, a world of wuxxia and xianxia. (This fiction will be parodying many a wuxxia and hopefully do a good job with it. Not only will I try and stress the most ridiculous down-sides of wuxxias but I will also take a shot at making it enjoyable while I'm at it. And don't be fooled by the Lit-RPG tag, after all, every MC needs his secret weapon, regardless how much they try to deny it.)
