DISCLAIMER: dont own, peeps.
"Well, hi!" Dawn smiled up at the shark. Al cringed away and shuddered from the closeness. "Name's Envy. It's all right, I understand. Why trust a shark, right?" he asked, a greenish tint to him. Al tried to hide away from him, but Dawn kept him closer to the shark, not letting him leave. "So, what's a couple of bites like you doing out so late, eh?"
"Nothing! We're not doing anything, we're not even out!" Alphonse said nervously, nearly yelping out his words. Envy grinned, his serrated teeth glistening, "Great! Then how'd you morsels like to come to a little.. a little get-together I'm having?" Dawns blue eyes lit up, "You mean like a party?" She looked at Al, giving a puppy dog face. "Can we go pleeeaaasseeee?" Al swallowed deeply, "I-It's tempting, but—" He was cut off by Envy. "Oh, come on. I insist!" He held out his fins so they couldn't leave and swam towards an old shipwreck.
"Ok!" Al gasped, "That's all that matters." Dawn gasped, "Hey! Balloons! See, it IS a party!" she pointed with her fin at a field of mines. Envy led them through and laughed, "Haha. Mind your distance, though. Those balloons can be a bit dodgy. Wouldn't want one of them to pop." Al whimpered a bit as they got to the boat. "Gluttony! Wrath!" Two other sharks joined and gasped, "There you are, Envy. Finally!" The smaller one grinned. "We got company."
"It's about time, mate." The one, named Wrath mused. "Yeah," Gluttony whined. "We've gone through all the snacks and I'm still starvin'!" Wrath gave a sort of nod, "We almost had a feeding frenzy, we did!" Al was very uncomfortable as Envy swam closer to them, with their mouths wide open and all those razor-like teeth protruding from their jaws.
"Right, then. The meeting has officially come to order. Let us all say the pledge…"
All of the sharks spoke in unison, "I am a nice shark, not a mindless eating machine. If I am to change this image, I must first change myself. Fish are friends, not food." Wrath snorted, "Except stinkin' dolphins." Gluttony growled and ranted on about the dolphins thinking they're so cute, but Al wasn't listening. He was too focused on staying in one piece so he could find his brother. The next thing he heard was Gluttony sniveling. "I-I've seemed to..uhm… have misplaced my friend.."
Al gasped as a fish skeleton poked through his teeth. "That's alright. I felt that this would be a difficult step. Help yourself to one of my friends!" Envy grinned. Dawn chuckled when Gluttony hugged Al close to him. "Thanks, mate!" Envy nodded up at his podium. "I'll start the testimonies. Hello, my name is Envy." "Hi Envy"
"It has been three weeks since my last fish. On my honor, or may I be chopped up and made into soup." The other sharks and fish (besides Al, of course) clapped at this achievement. "You're an inspiration to all of us, mate!" Envy smirked, "Alright, who's next?"
Dawn raised her fin and bounced around, "Ooh, ooh! Pick me, pick me! Pleaaasseee?" Envy nodded down to her, "Yes, the little Sheila in the front!" She swam up to the podium with much enthusiasm. "Hi, my name is Dawn." Gluttony, Wrath, and Envy all gave a greeting, "Hello, Dawn." She smiled, "And, well.. I don't think I've ever eaten a fish."
The sharks all clapped in amazement, "That's incredible!" "Good on ya, mate!" Envy looked around, "All right, anyone else? How about you?" he looked at Alphonse in the eye. "What's your problem?" Al growled slightly, "I don't have a problem!" The largest in the room all looked at each other with the same annoyed look, then forced him to the podium. "Denial." Envy sighed, "Just start with your name."
"O-Ok.. My name is Alphonse.. I'm a clownfish.." he started, shaking from fear. "A clownfish?" Wrath gasped. "Go on! Tell us a joke, then!" Gluttony grinned, "I love jokes."
Al laughed softly, "Actually I do know one that's pretty good. There was this mollusk and he walks up to a sea cucumber. Normally, they don't talk, sea cucumbers, but in a joke, everyone talks. So the sea mollusk says to the cucumber.." he paused as he saw a green diver mask, being taken back to the reef. In his head, Edward's voice resurfaced. "Al! Help me!"
He gasped and swam up to it quickly, "Edward!" Gluttony laughed on instinct, "Edward! Hahaha! Edward!... I don't get it.." Wrath hit him over the head, glaring. Envy gave a look, "For a clownfish.. He's not that funny." Al shook his head as he tried to make sense of what was on it, "No, no, no.. He's my brother..He was taken by these divers.."
Dawn swam up with him, "Oh, my.. You poor fish." Gluttony just gave a disgusted look, "Humans.. Pfft. They think they own everything. "Probably Amestrian," Wrath chimed. Envy looked like her was about to cry.. more than he already was, "Now there is a brother, looking for his family!" Al growled in frustration, "Ugh! What do these markings mean?"
"I never knew my family!" he cried harder, shaking a bit. "Aww, come here.." It was unintelligible who that last phrase came from, because Al was about to go cross-eyed from trying to understand the humans.. whatever it was. "I can't read human!" he growled slightly. Dawn took the mask, "Well then we gotta find a fish that can! Hey look, sharks!" She swam towards them. Al held the mask back, "No, no, no! Dawn!"
"Guys!" she started, but Al held the mask tight. "No, Dawn!" She growled and her eyes narrowed, "Give it to me! It's mine!—oww.. Ok, ow.." she groaned as the mask snapped back and hit her in the face. "Oh, I'm sorry! You ok?" Al asked. The blue fish held her nose with her fin, "Wow.. You really clocked me, there. Am I bleeding?" she asked, letting got. A small plume of blood floated up to Envy. "Dawn, are you oka—oh.. ohh, that's good," he smirked, his eyes darkening with bloodlust. The other two gasped, "INTERVENTION!"
