NovelEnglishOnce we were on our way again, Mati became more talkative.
“So, you are a human? What kind of monster is that?” Mati asked.
“The worst kind, honestly. We destroyed our own race and locked them in this world and many others. You don’t know it yet, but you are also a human, and you should have gotten your memories back,” I explained as we started to swim on an upwards angle, still heading north.
“What do you mean, should? Why don’t I if I am one of you? I don't see how that is possible because I have always been me,” Mati stated, and I nodded.
“Do you know your other sisters?” I asked. “That could be the key to unlocking that secret. If you know where they are, we are one step closer to finding the truth.”
“Nope, I know where they were, but they are like me and move around. I could tell you where they were, but that was a really long time ago,” Mati said, and I nodded but then gave her a look.

“I was waiting for Kieta. I mean, I wasn’t sure if she would ever get off that island, but something told me that she would. I can’t really place my finger on it. It was just a feeling, but now I feel better just being around you. I don't know if that means I was supposed to meet Kieta so I could meet you or not,” Mati said, and I nodded.
“Well, since you are one of the seven sisters that I am looking for, it would make sense that you would want to be close to me. I am trying to figure out why your father, a mermaid, would go and have children of multiple races. On top of that, all of you have an uncanny ability to avoid danger like the plague,” I explained, and Mati thumbed her lip.
“I have always wondered about that, but it always helps me get out of tough situations, and I can always back up my mouth! There are a lot of jerks in the sea that wants to try and eat me or just kill me because I have caused a lot of trouble,” Mati explained, and I laughed.
“Well, I hope we don’t get into too much trouble. I would hate for half the ocean to be following us around in the submarine,” I laughed, and Mati gave me a strange look, so I explained. “That is what you call the underwater boat I was in.”
“Oh! I see, but is there water inside?” Mati asked, and I nodded.
“Yes, if you came on board, I would get you a room made with water in it. If you join me and become one of my girls, you will also be able to walk on dry land. You could feel the sand between your toes,” I laughed, and Mati nodded.
“Does sound interesting, but I don't feel like spreading my lower lips for you just yet. You still are incredibly ugly, and we are also getting close to the town,” Mati explained, and I frowned at her.
“Town? In the water?” I asked, and Mati nodded.
“The place is called Rock Bottom, but it is a long way from the bottom. We were actually pretty close to it before you decided to eat an entire giant sea turtle! Shell and all! No one is going to believe me!” Mati laughed, and I nodded.
“That’s because you're full of shit. I never ate the shell, and I will drop it on anyone who thinks I did!” I warned, and Mati laughed harder.
“Of course, I am full of shit! I don't think it is very polite to empty myself while I am swimming around you,” Mati laughed, and I rolled my eyes, but I could see a large rock wall with a massive flat shelf with dome-shaped buildings on it.
Many strange creatures were coming to and from the place, but there were only four domes. One of them was much bigger than the others, and that was what Mati pointed to.
“That is the Seeing Eye Bar, and then other places are some shops if you want to check them out first. They might even buy some of that jade from you since I will assume that you don't have any dollars. Or do you have some hidden in your belly?” Mati asked, and I rolled my eyes, changing my form back to Gorgon-Mermaid form.

“I don't stuff things in my holes very often, unlike some people. I am what I like to refer to as chronically broke. Never really had a problem getting what I want, but you don't have the same fun bags as me, so I don't really think that you will get free things,” Mati said, jiggling her half-black and white breasts.
“This is true. I wouldn’t mind checking out the shops before we get messed up,” I said with a smile.
“Good, then you can pay for my drinks and fight anyone that tries to mount me!” Mati cheered.
“Is that a constant problem?” I asked Mati as we started to get closer.
“Problem? Not for me! Though, I do sometimes feel bad when they die. Not like I want to kill them, but they end up doing it themself. I am surprised that Sebastian the card even lets me come back. He says that it is for entertainment value, but he is a weird one,” Mati explained as we swan down to one of the first shops.
“Well, I suppose that is a good thing. At least you haven't gotten abused or anything like that,” I said as Mati opened the shop door that was more like a hatch.
“Do I get abused? More like I am the abuser!” Mati laughed, and we went inside.
