Pretend

Arizona's fresh out of college, and has just landed a job, of sorts, at the local marine research center. She's content with all that's going on; there's always something to learn at the lab, and the experiments are also fun. One day, the lab researchers discover something more than just a little interesting in the sea, and the creatures they've brought with them aren't too happy. She meets Kinte and Rikon, two mermen caught just off the coasts. As she learns more about them, Arizona realizes there's more to them, herself, and the lab than she anticipated. Secrets and stories are hidden in every corner of the white washed buildings, and Arizona's no longer sure of those around her, and especially not of herself. And when an accidental slip of the tongue lets out a secret, the world around her shatters.
