Egg
Amber was captured and taken to a dark room, no one knew what happened there, but she never came out the same.
🏊🏾♂️🌅🚢🌊🚢🚢🚢🚢🚢🚢🚢🚢🚢🚢🚢🚢
Ni swam to her and found her laying on coral with her eyes wide open looking at nothing.
Ni carried her home and put her to bed.
🛌
Amber just stared from her bed into blank space. It was... Strange.
Ni took care of her for 12 days.
Amber just wouldn't get better.
On the 17th day of this behavior, Amber seemed to snap out of it and got out of bed.
She seemed more jumpy than happy.
🧜♀️
Amber had seemed to dye her hair pink and purple Which was odd since she had no way of doing that.
Her husband, Ni, got confused but let it go.
Then...

14 days after, Amber went missing.
Ni woke up feeling groggy and tired, he felt her side of the bed... To his shock, she wasn't in bed with him.
🏕️🍃🌳🏕️🏕️🌲🌳🚶🏾♂️🏕️🏕️🌳🌲🏕️🏕️🏕️🏕️
Ni ➡️🚶🏾♂️got up and went to look for her around the tribe since she was known to just wander the tribe, recently.
🏕️🚶🏾♂️🌳🏕️🏕️🌲🌳🌳🏕️🏕️🌳🌲🏕️🏕️🏕️🏕️
Ni asked one of the Taino members of his tribe named Rodney "Have you seen Amber?"
🏕️🕺🏽🚶🏾♂️🏕️🏕️🌲🌳🌳🏕️🏕️🌳🌲🏕️🏕️🏕️🏕️
😳➡️Rodney ➡️🕺🏽 just said, "Uh, you mean Amber?"
😟➡️Ni: "Yes, Amber, the strange woman from the sea."
😳➡️Rodney paused, then went back into his tent and started saying Strange things to himself.
😥➡️Rodney poked his head out from his ⛺ and pulled Ni in.
😟➡️Rodney says "She isn't here, but... How many eggs can she lay?" As he placed his hand on Ni's arm.
😳➡️Ni says "Up to 2, rarely 22. Those get put up for adoption due to instincts if mom doesn't want them and Adoption means just giving them to family."
"Do they look like this?" Asked Rodney as he held up an Egg that looked like➡️🔶
🔶🔶🔶🔶🔶🔶🔶🔶🔶🔶🔶🔶🔶🔶🔶🔶
Ni says "Don't... Mermaids usually give birth? They can both lay eggs, give birth, reproduce asexually, which reproduces a clone... Even though it's rare for one to do so as You need to be able to do so and that is a rare mutation in them."
🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸
There was this one egg.
There were 13 eggs in total.
All of them, even the one Rodney held, hatched.
All the babies came out.
6 boys, 5 girls, two hermaphrodites which were rare.
😳➡️Rodney says "Looks like Amber gave you babies!"
😳➡️Ni yells "That's why she told me about Mermaid births?!"
😳➡️Ni grabs one of the hermaphrodites saying "Hermaphrodites are pretty rare. What do I name it?"
🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸
😳➡️Rodney asks "Why does it have a 'Weiner' and a 'Lady Bulb' in front?"
🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸
All babies had "Sims 3 Mermaid" Green scaly human-like legs except for one which had fins with Pinkish Purple Dolphin-like skin. None of them had belly buttons like their mother did, due to the babies of Amber being hatched from eggs.
🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸
A month later...
Amber came back.
🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸
Ni was in his Tipi with his kids and slowly opened the tent doors.
🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸
Amber was normal but looked at her babies in shock and said "I... Don't remember being pregnant."
🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸
Ni is shocked, he hugged Amber and asks "Where did you go?" Amber replied "I found myself wandering around the woods. I don't know where I went."
🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸
Ni led her into the Tent asking "Were you hurt?" In concern.
🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸
Amber replied "I... Um, no, I don't know." Looking disoriented.
🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸
Amber hugs him and asks "How did I know these babies were mine?" In confusion.
🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸
Ni just laid her down and bathe all the babies.
🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸
Two years later...
🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸
12 out of the 13 babies were being raised by Ni's family since He thinks that Amber can only handle one.
🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸
He kept Aqua. One of the girls.
🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸
Why? Well, Amber had a breakdown 3 days ago.
🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸
In the forest, While Amber was caring for a Hermaphrodite which was Jackie, She Freaked out yelling "What if They never make it to Heaven?!" As her children watched.
🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸
She was talking about the hermaphrodites, she was terrified of God not letting them in Heaven because of being both genders.
🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸
Ni held her as she started crying. In the end, he thought it was best to give the children to his family members believing stress caused her breakdown.
🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸
Present Day, Amber is visiting her Child, Alex.
🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸
Alex says to her "Mommy, why doesn't daddy have scales?" So, Amber says "Ni is apart Mankind, not Merman-kind."
🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸
Alex asks "Does daddy have two 'below parts' or one?" And Amber stared at him like 😳 With her mouth wide open in a flash as if her face just slapped into a new facial expression.
🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸
Alex laughs then says "Gets parents every time!" With this face: 😈
🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸
Alex didn't even know why Alex's parents always had that reaction.
🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸
🅰️Ⓜ️🅱️📧R hugs Alex saying "He's one gender, not two."
🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸
Alex giggles like the Two-year-old Alex was.
🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸
Aqua ran around the tribe playing with her siblings as Her father, Ni, gathered Berries, preferring his kids eat veggies due to fear of Carnivorous animals and Humanoid creatures eating people, too, not just animals.
🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸
Aqua had stayed with her mom at her mother's request.
🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸
A man came to the tribe who was named Ar-Ke-Kee-Tah. He was old and alone and wished to speak with Ni in his Tipi.
🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸
Ni didn't want a stranger with his kids in their tipi, so instead, he spoke with Ar-Ke-Kee-Tah outside in public while Aqua was with her mother.
🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸
Ni asks him "Who are you?" To which Ar-Ke-Kee-Tah responded "Ar-Ke-Kee-Tah, I would like to start an arrangement with you about your child, Aqua."
🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸
Ni asks "Is this a Tribal thing?"😥
Ni knew some people used children for sacrifices, so he wanted to be careful of his strange man.
🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸
Ar-Ke-Kee-Tah paced around him predatorally, saying "Your Aqua is a perfect match for..."
Ni: 😥
Ar-Ke-Kee-Tah: 😈
Ni: 😠
Ar-Ke-Kee-Tah: 😈
Ni: 😡
Ar-Ke-Kee-Tah: 😈
Ar-Ke-Kee-Tah yells "MARRYING MY SON!"
Ni: 🤯
Ar-Ke-Kee-Tah: 🥰
Ni yells "Your son?!" In happiness that she isn't going to be sacrificed. Ni was laughing from shock at the request.
🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸
Ar-Ke-Kee-Tah yells "My son, Oto! He's amazing!" In Glee at the prospect of his son getting married.
🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸
Ni says "I mean, I guess if you want to. She's only two, how old is your son?"
Ar-Ke-Kee-Tah says "Two!"
Ni asks "Then how will they be Married at such a young age and... I have to bring this up with my wife. This is a no-go at so young "
🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸
Ar-Ke-Kee-Tah pauses and says "I wish they were older." Ni says "You should have waited 18 years, homie." Ni left to inform his wife
🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸
Ni says to Amber "This Oto man comes up to me and says "Hey, you wanna marry my son to your daughter?" Amber replied "How?! She's two!" Then Ni says "So is his son. I told him he should have waited 18 years and even asked to bring it up with you "
🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸
Amber yells "No, she's too young for marriage!" Ni says "Of course, what's a baby going to do? Neither of the children can wipe themselves, plus, the Oto tribe is... Uh... Not the tribe I want her marrying into."
🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸
Amber asks "Why?" Ni says "Not getting along well. I fear conflicts between the tribes will tear the marriage apart... Then there are tribal rules and cultures, religions, etc. Not easy to adjust in a different culture, sometimes."
🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸
Amber says "Tainos are Peaceful, why not?" Ni says "It's an insult to the Oto tribe to not marry am Oto." Amber says "Or... You are bigoted against them." Ni says "We have issues."
🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸
Amber thinks he has an issue with the Marriage because she's so young.
🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸
🌺16 years later... 🌺
🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸
🌺Aqua is 18 along with her siblings. 🌺
🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸
Aqua wistfully ran around using her water powers to carry five 4 foot tall, five feet wide balls of water to her neighborhood in her tribe.
🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸
😊➡️Aqua put the water in baskets 🧺 for the tribe. Aqua's other siblings helped out. Aqua enjoyed this freedom, Aqua could think of worse fates.
🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸
Like being beaten by an abusive husband, an abusive father beating your mom...
There are many worse things that could happen to the family.
🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸
😆➡️Ni was having a good day and was singing the song "I'm hooked on a feeling." As he did his work.
🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸
As he sang, Ni kissed his wife passionately, then says "Keep it up girl, Yeah you turn me on!" Then went 🔙 to work with his sons and daughters.
🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸
All of his Children sang along with him.
🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸
Lily-White was heavily pregnant, so much that it exceeded the size of a normal pregnant belly.
🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸
She always wondered if her baby was comfortable, as if it didn't live in a stomach "The size of an apartment complex."
Just a joke, but still...
🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸
You could go in there and the baby is reading a stack of 📚books📚 while playing the Banjo.
