You were just fishing with your family. Sitting at the edge of the dock and looking out over the massive murky river. Not daring to dip your feet in the water because of just how fucking murky and creepy it was.

Then the line tugged, a little twitch then a big yank and you start quickly rolling the line in. Eager to hopefully finally catch something.

But then a human head emerged, a torso and chest following until you were starting down at a boy eitha cute little face. Scales of vibrant blues along the edges of his cheeks. Odd little pointed ears, and cute little colourful fins on his arms and little things here and there. The fishing line wtapped around one of his hands.

And then he grinned, and around 50 feet of monster and horror started to swirl under the water. His teeth were like a mix of a sharks and a wolves, curved and pointed. A long tongue with a pointed tip, he sneered and tried to grab onto you to pull you in.

Oh fuck.
