The Blue# 4
The breeze of the cold night is refreshing, a really pleasant feel specially in such a tropical island in the middle of the equator. The moon is at it's full circle and the view is really enjoyable across the sky. This is a night that a lot of people would probably enjoy if they are into it, but not Inki.
Inki had played all day with her new made friend and had forgot about the time. As a typical child, she now troubled with how would her parents scold her because of going home late.
This isn't the first time that Inki is going home late. Actually it is the the 5th or 6th time, no one actually knows the exact number but she already did it several times and the probability of her doing it again after this is also high. Inki sneaked behind their house so she can come in unnoticed. Their house seems to be modern compared to what people would expect due to the ethnicity of the life style of the people in the island. But due to outsiders being allowed to live in the island decades ago, some somewhat modern housing from the usual hut made it in the island and one of those houses is owned by Inki's family.
"Tip, toe", Inki slowly gets in after opening the door with the most silent she can make.
The plan is to get into her room without being known and fall asleep, she intends to sleep with out any dinner. She already made it on front of her room, with that she opens the door.
Everything was successful, Inki thought, but she was wrong, unfortunately.
"Do you have any idea of what is the time right now little girl?", a voice said after the lights went on after Inki went into her room. Her parents was waiting on her room the whole time. With that said, Inki got a scolding that night but the good part is, she will not be sleeping with an empty stomach, she will have dinner before she goes to bed. Probably after she brushes her teeth.
The next day, Inki wakes up excited because of the new friend she made yesterday. A friend from an unknown world which probably she hasn't realized to be supernatural by now has really got her hooked. Not only that she becomes able to breathe underwater, she also now is able to communicate with fishes.
Its now around 9:00 AM in the morning and the fishermen that went fishing during the dawn had now came back with their catch. Inki saw them coming and acted normally.
Ishu, a young adult at his 20's saw her and smiled at her.
"What a rare sight sawing Inki this early in the shore, are you waiting for your father to come back? If so, then the God's might had struck you or something", Ishu throws a tease to Inki.
"What? What do you mean by that?"
"I do not know, maybe I just felt that its so unusual to see you here at such time", Ishu says and leaves. The two doesn't actually come along good together for some reason.
Inki walks a bit more towards the shore, she plans to wait there until the men becomes completely out of sight.
"Uhhh... I cannot breathe!", suddenly a voice that sounds like from a suffering man says.
Inki looks around to see who was that and it seems that someone is just messing with her.
"Waterrrrr..... Water....", other voices was then heard, the voices tend to keep on getting louder and the number of voices are getting more.
"Inki", a man calls nearby, it was Inki's father calling her.
"Help... I do not want to die", Inki was so puzzled and confused out of the voices that she didn't heard that her father called her. She just snapped out of when she realized that the voices were coming from the fishes. The fishes were asking for help and now an emotion of shock and a little terror struck into her.
