   SPLASH!
   Is what I hear the water. I turn to Melione who looks like a puffer fish. I start to smirk, to be cut off by Melione, who slaps me in the face. I roll my eyes, turn and swim further into the tunnel, Melione not too far behind. After a while, I turn back to see that Melione is nearly out of breath. She lets go and her face goes to curiosity quite quickly. I laugh (as best as I can underwater).
Soon enough, we reach the cave. "Here we are. Now let's go look for that thing I need." She says. She starts looking for something.
   "How am I supposed to know what I'm looking for, if I don't even KNOW what it is I'm looking  for?" I ask.
   "You'll know it when you see it." She says, going back to looking for the thing she needs.
   "Did u hear that?" She asks.
   "Hear what?" I state.
   "I thought I heard, never mind. It's probably nothing." She says, her voice shaking a bit.
   Soon enough, I hear Melione call me. I turn and see her running pass me.
   She turns and says "DUCK!!!"
   "Nice try, but I'm not gonna fall for that this time melon." I say.
   "Sorry for this." She says. She pushes me towards the ground, but I grab onto her trying to stay on my feet. Turns out, she wasn't very well balanced. She and I fell and landed on the ground, hitting my head, really badly. My sight wavered.
   "FOOD!" A voice says "COME OVER HERE FOOD!" The voice says again. "IT'S DINNER TIME!" And that's when everything went black.
   I remember very little of what happened. A big woman came out with a baby being stuffed into her mouth. She and Melione talked. Something about them being sisters? I don't remember. Anyway, they then fought. Melione got eaten, I think. Then the crazy lady got cut through the neck and died. Melione picked up a book looking thing and then dragged me into the water and I got thrown into the water. That all I remember. I think that's what happened. I was half awake. I'm probably wrong.
