Chapter 251: Thank You, Cute Fish Princess (1/2)

I watched as Missy's tail split into two legs, and the gills on her neck changed slightly, but she didn't seem to have any trouble breathing. When the light cleared, Missy started to swim to me, and she hugged me tightly.

”Thank you, thank you, thank yoo-ho-ho-hoo!” Missy wailed into the watery sphere as I wrapped my arms around her and started the spear forward.

I let her cry, not bothering to ask why; Missy would tell me if she could, but for now, I could just hold her as we went for a drive. Something that I had enjoyed doing when I was back on earth, and this wasn't the same, but it was as close as I could get.

There was a full moon tonight, and it lit the road up, making it easy to see where I was going. Missy slowly calmed, but she still held on to me as we rolled along; I had not been specially planned; it was just lovely to get out.

”How are you able to do what you are doing? Sorry, I don't have to ask questions now, but I am curious about how you can do this,” Missy said in a far less ditzy voice, but it was still a cute one.

I explained everything that I had been through, and then she asked me where I had found her. I explained everything that she asked me, but I was surprised that she couldn't remember any of it.

”I can remember bits and parts of it, but it was like I could only understand a small portion of each thing that went on. Now, even when I try to remember, I get memories of the simple questions that I had,” Missy explained.

The two of us floated together and rolled down the road that headed to the center of the island.

”Do you have any idea what is with the supernatural force that is around you?” I asked, hoping that I could get a bit of information or anything about it, but I was disappointed.

”I don't know what you are even talking about; what supernatural powers?” Missy asked, and then I explained the special powers that she and Mary both possessed, but Missy sighed at the mention of Mary.

”If there is one thing that I can remember, it was how much Mary hated it when I asked her questions. Now that I think about it, I think I know what you are talking about with the supernatural powers. However, I still don't know anything about them,” Missy explained, and I slowed the sphere down to a stop.

Once we halted, I started to head back in the other direction, but I didn't turn us back around; and instead, I wrapped an arm around Missy's shoulder. As I did, I leaned the two of us back so we could look up at the stars.

Missy cuddled in close to me, and I slowly lowered the top of the sphere as it still rolled beneath us. I didn't need to look back because I had my mini-map to guide me, and the path was wide and straight for most of the way.
