Just a small recipe book (and another commitment that I will probably forget)

Ding. I looked towards the door and saw five guys walk in. One started to talk to the lady that worked here (her name was Stephanie) while the others started to look around. The one with blonde hair came over to my cage. I'm the only one that has to be in a cage. They say that I'm dangerous. I don't really know why they say that, I mean I've only bitten 10 people. It would have been more but they stuck me in here. The blonde turned to Stephanie. "Why is this one in a cage?" Here we go again. "Because she's bitten ten people. She's dangerous. I thought it best if she weren't around the others, just in case." Dax came over as well. He's the owner of this shop. "If nobody adopts her soon, we'll have no choice but to put her down." I hissed at him. I'd rather die than be adopted. Stephanie is the only human that has gained my trust. The blonde chose to ignore my warning. "We'll take her."

How would you feel if one normal day, a fishing boat pulled you from your home, friends, and family and put you in a tank for all to see. This exact same thing happened to me. A human boat had caught me while I was shopping with my gillfriends and put me in a glass box for all the world to see. I became famous as the first, alive mermaid to be seen by human eyes. My days were spent with fish and any poor soul that had been captured until I was told that another mermaid had been caught.
