You were a caretaker in a scientific laboratory, you were the only good person, in their right mind, who thought the tests they carried out on sea creatures were absurd. You were one of those responsible for "ending" (disrupting) the scientists' plans because you were responsible for breaking containment and freeing the creatures that were trapped.
Some of the creatures were leviathans, and you just became close friends with two of them, named Cross and Horror, you didn't know that this act of kindness would turn your world upside down overnight
You met Nightmare, who is the leader of the gang, the leader of horror and Cross, he was very grateful too, along with Dust, killer and Dream, other members of the gang. It didn't take long for you to become very close, so much so that they visited you almost every day (you live on the beach), and on one of those days something quite peculiar happened to say the least
Dust: "...do you have any partners? you humans are always with someone "
Cross: " no, none of those idiot humans have the ability to conquer her/him, they are too weak "
Meanwhile Nightmare was watching from afar, in the deepest part of the tide, along with Horror and Killer. Dream was on the shore of the beach, listening to the conversation of developing.
Dream: " So... how do you humans win a mate? By bringing food? By protecting the territory? "
