Mermaid Tale (Bts ff)

Chapter 11

-Ji-uen POV-

It was a free day today. A Sunday. My schedule had nothing planned and I was sat not knowing what normal humans do on these days. I decided to see what the game room was. I unlocked it by pressing a button on the controller and I sat down on the couch inside. I decided to press a button and it beeped which scared me to death. The screen lit up and it said to press the home button to pick a controller. I picked up a purple controller and pressed the home button and the screen changed. I titled my head and was amazed with all the options. I presses one of the tabs and it opened. "O..Over.Watch?" I said slowly reading. Suddenly, it showed a monkey and I started smiling at how weird this was already. I entered the game and was met with a home screen. Of a hamster? Apparently as said on the screen, he was called Hammond. I was so confused but I pressed many buttons and soon I was shown a screen with different people on. THere was a woman with a suit on and she looked cool so I pressed X and it put me in the game as her.  I smiled. I learnt the controls quite easily and at the end we won and I cheered. I think I was good? I learnt my characters name and she was Pharah. 

I turned off the game and exited the room. I was hungry so I decided to go look around at some of the shops. I saw a Chinese and I instantly headed towards it. In the Chen Kingdom, in the ocean near China, they have the best seafood. I enter the shop and it rings a bell indicating I entered. The staff looked at me and one of the woman came towards me with a smile. "Table for One" She asked politely and I slowly nodded taking in my surroundings. The smell was amazing and I didn't even realise that the woman was wanting me to sit down at a table. I bowed before taking my seat and she smiled before leaving to take care of other customers. I picked up the "Menu" in front of me and looked at it. I looked at all the food and didn't know what to have. I had no idea what all of this was. So when the lady came to me and asked what I wanted, I picked a random dish off the food section and drink section. "Ch-Chicken Chow Mein? and Melk Bubble? Tea.... plz" I managed to read and she looked concerned at my pronunciation but swiftly walked away with my order. I was happy with my pronunciation, especially since I had never in my life heard about these things. Must be Human only.  I waited and was looking at my surroundings when something caught my eye. It was a pack of little colourful pens. I quickly picked them up from the table and picked out a bluey colour which reminded me of the ocean. I was confused to why is was blue but I liked it. There were some sheets of paper near the colours and I picked up one which showed a picture of a dragon. But it wasn't colourful. Maybe this is how humans colour. In the Min Kingdom, we colour things with whatever we can find like Coral, seaweed, sand and much more. We make do with our resources. I placed the tip of the coloured pencil to the paper and waited for something to happen. I frowned when nothing happened. Then I lost my balance since I was leaning on the table with my elbow and it made me moved the blue pen across the paper. I looked at it for a second. A line of blue was visible. I moved my pen up and down the page and smiled when the colour was coming out so easily. Usually it was a little harder in the ocean and most things you had to crush to get the colour out of so your could paint it. After a while, I had tried out all of the colours and was smiling at my work. It was just colourful lines everywhere, not even focusing on colouring the dragon within the lines. The waiter came with some nice looking dishes and stared at my work of art for a while before shaking his head to break from his gaze. "Hear you are miss" He placed some good looking things on my table and left. I bowed politely and poked my food. They were long wriggly things, a bit like worms. There was also bits of bland looking bits in my food. I stared at it for a while which must of looked very strange. After a while I picked up a bit of my food with my hand and put it in my mouth and soon all the flavour seeped out. It tasted so good!! I quickly looked at my drink hoping it would have the same flavours. Then I saw a weird plastic think in my drink. I think it's called a "straw" from my research but I hated it already. I have a hatred towards plastic. When I was little, I nearly passed away.

-Flashback-

I was playing hide and seek with Yoongi and I had found the perfect hiding spot in the long seaweed. I heard some rustling so I went towards it and closed my eyes to stop the seaweed getting in my eyes. However, I felt a stinging in my tail which made my eyes immediately shoot open. I looked down to see a plastic bottle which has been broken. The plastic was sharp and it was cutting through my fins. I screamed as tears started forming. It hurt so bad. I looked around me to see I was no longer in the seaweed. Instead I was in the open, but plastic was scattered everywhere. It was all swimming towards me as I struggled helplessly. The water was turning murky red as my tail became red.  My vision started becoming a dark helpless shadow as the last thing I could mutter out was "Help...." as I saw my brother in the distance before I blacked out. I woke up in hospital with Yoongi next to me looking slightly worried and I saw his eyes a bit teary which surprised me. He looked really really tired. I looked down at my tail which had a huge scar across it and was being stitched up. Then I screamed.

-End of Flashback- 

I pushed my drink away immediately making it smash on the floor and the liquid going everywhere. The waiters rushed over asking if I was okay however my mind was on plastic. Humans made that scar. Humans threw plastic in the water. Humans did this. I rushed out the restaurant as I headed for home. It was raining and it felt good. I was getting wet and I liked it. It reminded me of home. What I didn't know was that someone was watching me in that restaurant.
