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

Mako closed his eyes tightly, as if in pain. "Then you restrain us and get away from us, far away. If the desire ever builds up that much, not even my own will can keep me from using it on you. It's like my body goes into autopilot and will stop at nothing to fulfill the need to pass on my gift to you. You could just accept the gift, it's honestly not that bad, but, as I said, my body goes into autopilot. I was born to pass on my gift to you and please you in whatever way I can, if I lose control of myself, then my instincts will kick in and do their best to fulfill my purpose. There's no telling what I'd do then."

Naida felt as if the water around her had suddenly turned to ice as the reality of the magic bound to these five brothers fell upon her. She shivered and looked up at Mako. "I don't want that to happen to you guys. I'm not ready for you guys to touch me or control me, this is still the first day I've known you guys, but, if- when, the time comes that you feel like you're losing control, please tell me. Please, I don't want to see any of you guys lose control; I'd rather let you control my emotions and let Krait touch my legs." She said, almost crying. She wasn't going to let them take advantage of her, but she also wasn't going to make them suffer.

Mako hugged her and stroked her hair. "It's ok, Naida, we'll be alright. We're stronger than you think." He said, smiling.

Naida wiggled out of his hug, smiling a tiny bit. "Thanks. Though, next time ask. I'm still not entirely comfortable around you guys." She muttered, the lightest blush crossing her cheeks.

"Understandable." Mako nodded.

Out of the blue, Lionfish barreled into Mako, sending them both crashing into the seafloor in a cloud of sand.

"Lionfish, what the heck are you doing! Get off me now!" Mako growled and the two wrestled around while Naida laughed in amusement.

"Wrestling for dominance!" Lionfish laughed and shoveled sand into Mako's face. Mako spluttered and attempted to get it out of his eyes and mouth. While Mako was distracted, Lionfish grabbed Mako's tail firmly above the flukes and slowly started to spin, using Mako to build momentum until he was spinning him around in a circle. He suddenly let go and Mako went flying into a thick patch of kelp, getting tangled with all his struggling.

"Lionfish, if you don't cut this out I'll-" Mako shouted but was cut off by Lionfish.

"You'll what? You don't have any powerful magic, and next to Krait, you're the smallest! Why are you the head of the family?" It looked as if Lionfish was playing, but his words came out a little sharper than friendly teasing.
