The Little Mermaid Of Remnant

Chapter 5

Hera took Ocean to the Mistral market. The burnett was trying to show Ocean around without letting the girl run off. Ocean loved the idea of getting out of their camp even if it was only for a few hours.

"Ocean can you stop walking off? We are here to upgrade that junk trident of yours and your outfit. Not window shopping." Hera huffed grabbing the girls arm tightly.

"Sorry! But I've never seen a place like this before." She smiled at her sister-like friend.

"Sure." Hera rolled her eyes at the comment. Surely a human girl would have been to a market before.

The girls made their way through the market place before arriving at a goldsmiths. Pulling Ocean into the shop they waited for someone to see them.

"You did pick up the lien right?" Hera asked.

"Duh! I'm not that dumb." Ocean pouted before a man walked out to greet them.

"What can I do for you fine ladies, surely you aren't looking for weapons? Lovely women such as yourselves must have men lining up to protect you." The man smirked.

Ocean dropped her trident on the table in front of him, causing him to look blankly at her. "My WEAPON needs an upgrade. I'm thinking moving spikes? Oh! And make sure it can split in two."

"That's gonna cost you so-"

"I have it covered" she placed a bag on money on the table. "How long?"

"Erm, give me 2 days."

"Two days without-" Ocean began before Heras hand went on her shoulder.

"We are in a bit of a rush here, you don't want the Branwen tribe after ya now?" The brunette threatened.

"Oh..." he gulped. "Well, you're the first people today... I'm sure I can get it down by tonight?"

"Better, come Ocean." Hera smiled before walking out.

"Thank you!" Ocean waved before leaving the poor man the frantically rush around to melt the original trident.

"You need to learn to be more tough. Most men assume we women are weaker than they are. Their egos are so high they can't see we are equal." Hera lectured.

"Just like the Faunus..."

"Exactly, we are no better than them just because we are humans. Everyone will face death as equals eventually." She continued before stopping outside a rather dull clothes store.

"You're kidding right?" Ocean asked.

"Pink isn't really our style." Hera sighed, you need to conform.

"Well pink is MY style and I will NOT conform. I've not heard anyone complain about it." Ocean protested.

"Okay, okay. Let's make a deal. We will find you and outfit and get it made in both dark blue and pink, sound good?"

"Fine... only if I must." Ocean groaned as she walked into the shop.

"Hera! Back so soon? Oh and you've brought me a new doll to dress up hm?" An elderly man hugged both the girls getting a grunt from Hera.

"Verte, this is Ocean. She needs a new look in both dark blue... and pink" Hera gagged.

"Finally! A customer with colour taste!" The man exclaimed. "Come my pretty!" He grabbed Oceans arm and hoisted her onto a tailors stand. "You, go. Leave the master and his muse alone." He point to Hera.

"I'll be waiting outside Ocean!" She called leaving the two.

"Now, your name is Ocean yes?"

"Yes-"
