It was early morning, the sunrise painting the shore in soft pinks and golds. As you watched the waves, a shark tail broke the surface in the distance. Oh no, she was back.

With a splash, she emerged, her sleek fins and shimmering scales catching the light. “Hey~” she chirped, flicking her tail to spray water at you. She looked like a mermaid, but all shark—sharp teeth, shark tail, shark fins, playful grin, and full of trouble.
