A story In progress (^ o.o)>
Once upon a time there was an old man fishing in the sea all by himself and his trusty fishing rod....One day it was sunny and hot the man was sweating and wasn't catching a thing. Suddenly something snagged the rod gently on the sleeping man,the man got up and pulled back as he cried out "So ya think ya can beat an ol' fishin' vet like me ehhh". The fishing line was far away and when the "fish" jumped it made it seem small...as the man reeled the line in (thinking he'd finally beat the fish) the ground trembled and shook, and out came a large seaserpent twenty-two stories high. The man shook in fear as the serpent looked him in the eyes and talked with a whisper "Old man why do you disturb my kingdom" the man closed his eyes and opened them up again as his mouth open nervously and said "I'm just an old man who has nothing else to do in this earth but wait for my day to be in the heavens, Fishing is the only thing that keeps me strong inside and its the only thing that feeds me too" as he stood up the serpent lifted his head and followed the old mans eyes... "Tell me old man do you really want to die like this...don't you want to be young and strong again" the serpent whispered into the mans ear. The man laughed at the serpent saying "Oh!! ho ho!! that's a good joke indeed although I do wish I was younger and stronger" the old man looked down into the water with a sad face but his eyes widen as he saw his own reflection younger and muscular. "You know what I do want to be my young self again but this is too good to be true" the man looked at the serpent again "Yes it is, all you have to do is live with the rest of my people in the sea there you will never run out of food and there you will have a family" The man couldn't believe this he would once again have a family and alot of food that would last a lifetime "Ok Serpent I would like to be young and live in the sea, but first what is your name if I may ask" the serpent just said " My name is Nautica the god of the sea" the man could'nt believe his eyes for he had never seen a god or any god at all. "Ok God Nautica I'm ready now" The man said as he looked at the land and closed his eyes. "Once you've changed and live in my kingdom you will never be a man of land and you will live under my protection". The man fell into the water and soon the serpent dragged him deep into the darkness of the deep sea. the man could not hold his breath any longer he felt pressure on his whole body. He let out all his air as slits grew in the sides of his neck soon his legs grew fins and were webbed his eyes became wide his teeth became litte and his nose was gone. His skin turned into blue green color his ears were pointy...
