The Ocean's Song (pt. 1) (Going through edits)

~4~

Krait had a blue-lipped sea krait tail, which probably gave him his name alike to the others. Wavy electric blue hair floated around his head but wasn't long enough to get in his way and blue tribal markings were tattooed all over his exposed skin.

Shark was the one who resembled a whale shark and Lionfish was the one who resembled the lionfish.

Ray was strange, for just like Krait, he didn't have much of an actual fish tail. Where a tail would've been were eagle ray fins leading down to a long whip-like tail, and a few spots like the ones on his tail dotted his back and waist. His hair was dirty blond and pretty shaggy and long.

They were so strange, Naida had no idea how to react. If the ocean had given her a second life, how come she had to depend on them to survive? "I sorta... what?" Naita said irritably and Mako flinched. She always vaguely believed in the supernatural. Rebirth, magic, fantasy, but to have it all suddenly happen to her, it was unbelievable.

Lionfish muttered something to Shark and Shark shook his head in agreement, then muttered back to Lionfish, who then punched Shark and swam up to Naida, but still gave her space.

"Naida... we each sent you a gift. We have for years to show you how much we loved you. We knew you were special, and we hoped one day the ocean would allow you to see us, we never thought it would take you dying for our wish to come true. My gift to you was the reef. I didn't build it of course, but I always kept it clean, made sure the population of wildlife wasn't struggling, and kept the magic alive for when you visited.

"Shark sent you the waves. As well as the reef and all the other gifts, the waves were still mostly natural, but when you were around Shark used his power and size to always send beautiful, calm waves.

"Krait persuaded the animals to visit you frequently. He has a special connection to animals and normally spends more time with them than others of our kind. He knew you liked them no matter the shape or size, and a few of the animals began going on their own.

"Ray left shells, and when he found your favorites, the calico scallop, he made sure you found them too. He loves shells and was elated when he found out you do too, so he sent them into the currents to be washed up onshore.
