Narrator’s pov:

Neela and Marina  were talking excitingly when suddenly a small gasp could be heard.

They  looked back and widened their eyes.

Marina acted quick and quickly hid her tail under the dark blue water as Neela gulped, suddenly feeling really nervous and somehow scared.

Marina tried to swim away but a stern voice held her in her place as she looked with her green eyes at him.

“Stop. Don’t move.” He said and Neela rubbed her fingers together nervously.
