Open || Ariel
Ariel stumbled and limped as she was tugged around by the other Arielle. Then her legs gave out and Ariel fell to her knees. “Please… I can’t. I can’t walk. I don’t know how!” Ariel began tearing up and shook her head not understanding. “Then what am I? I’m not going anywhere with you until you tell me! What am I!?!? We?! More powerful!? TELL ME!” Ariel growled out which was the first time in her life the used to be mermaid ever lost her temper. It was all because she was afraid though.

Arielle’s POV:
Arielle could sense that the girl
in front of her didn’t get angry
often, - much like her at that
age, before losing him - so
she waited and let the other
finish her angry rant before
she spoke again.
❝You were a
mermaid. I was
once, too. I was
stupid enough to
fall in love. I got
punished for it
when I wouldn’t
kill my love, and
now here I am. Legs
and all.❞ the blonde
stated matter of factly
as she leaned against
the wall of the room the
two of them were currently
locked in.
She sighed and shuffled
her feet as she started to
speak again...
❝There are mortals
they call themselves
Trackers. They want
anyone who might be
just a little stronger or
better than them, like
say mermaids or gods
or anyone else not born
of Earth dead. We’re the
minority here. And I’ve
been here almost 300
years now. So I know how
to spot my own kind.❞
The blonde pauses a
moment to consider
their present quandry
The younger one was
inable to walk. She
couldn’t remember
her name or how she
got here, what she might
have done to lose her
tail.
They had few options &
time was short. Arielle
took a deep breath &
looked at the other..
❝You have no choice
but to trust me. In
exactly 8 minutes
they will do the
daily sweep of this
place. If they scan
you and you don’t
have a brand like
the others, like I do
now... They’ll kill
you on the spot.❞
If she could get the
other girl out of the
airport without anyone
catching on and back
to her apartment..
❝I think I have an
idea. You can’t walk
and I know how to
fool them. Just let
me find a wheelchair
and we’ll go. My
apartment is the safest for
now. I’ll explain the rest there.❞
