Thank You, Cute Fish Princess

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.
