Fly entered a small cave that was embedded into an underwater cliff. "This is a perfect place to camp."
Chuck, Stella and Honey followed him into the cave, agreeing with him they settled down to get ready to sleep. They still had 43 hours to find the generator and until the potion was permanent, they hoped there will be no more interruptions.
Stella cuddled up next to Honey, she looked rather sad which she picked up on as Stella buried her head into Honeys fin.
"What's wrong, Stella?" She asked softly.
"I miss Sasha." She sniffed.
"I know." Honey wrapped her fingers around Stella pulling her close, "We will be home soon, I promise."
Fly admired Honey as she comforted his little sister, she was amazing with Stella. Sometimes even better than Fly was with her.
As Stella settled down and fell asleep next to Honey, she smiled at Fly as if she was reassuring him that things will be ok.
"So, with this generator... what's going on? I didn't even know it was broken until that octopus mentioned it." Honey asked Fly and Chuck.
"Joe destroyed it, before Fly turned him back into an unintelligent fish. The Professor has fixed it from the laboratory, but it needs to be activated from the generator. Hence why we need to do it." Chuck answered.
"So once we activate it we will turn back into humans?"
"Yes, but we will need to be quick once we've drank the antidote as I imagine the generator is quite deep down. We'd all drown if we're not quick enough to get to the surface." Chuck explained.
"Let's just hope there's land near the generator we can swim to safety once we're back to normal." Fly spoke.
"Hopefully." Chuck yawned. "We should be fine. Goodnight you two."
"Goodnight Chuck." Fly and Honey said in sync.
The only two awake now were Fly and Honey, who lay in silence as they both struggled to sleep.
"Are you okay Fly?"
"Yes... it's just scary being a fish again." He sighed.
"I can understand why from what I've seen so far, but you've overcome so much by being down here. You should be proud."
"Thank you, Honey... I don't know what I'd do without you."
"You'd probably be in some terrible situations without me." She laughed.
Fly chuckled, before worry crept over his face. "But are you okay? Being a fish..." He asked.
"It's not what I expected to happen, but I'm okay. I've been a bit scared down here but I know that I'm safe with you three. We just need to find this generator then we will be home."
"Honey?"
"Yes?"
"Maybe... you know, when we get home I could perhaps take you to the place I used to fish? Since I feel like I'm getting better, I want to take you there." Fly shyly asked.
She smiled happily, slightly blushing. "I'd like that very much."
Fly swam over to Honey and Stella, settling beside them before he pulled them into his arms and cuddled them. Honey felt warm and safe in his embrace and he felt safe too.
"NO!" Fly screamed
Reggie threw Honeys lifeless little body against a rock, instantly killing her. Fly swam to her, holding her in his arms as he sobbed into her body.
"I love you Honey." He stuttered, tears flowing down his gills.
"I'm your worst nightmare than Joe." Reggie laughed.
Stella and Chuck screamed for Fly as they were captured by Stripes and Ham before the two sharks ate them right in front of his eyes.The two sharks proceeded to swim to the generator, smashing it to pieces with both of their body weight combined.There was no chance of Fly becoming human again, he was now a fish forever. He had lost his sister, cousin and soul mate all at once and he had lost his future.
He was alone. In the dark depths of the sea... forever.
"Fly? Fly!" Honey panicked as she shook Fly.
He shot up from his horrible nightmare, seeing Honey in front of him was a relief. He held her in his fins tightly as he hyperventilated in fear.
"You had a nightmare again didn't you?" She asked softly.
"Yes..."
Honey buried her head into him. "Do you want to talk about it?"
"T-they killed you. They killed Chuck and Stella too. The generator was destroyed, I remained a fish forever." He stuttered.
"It's okay Fly, it's okay. You're safe. We're safe."
She held him tightly to her to calm him down.
"Honey... you're my safe place." He admitted.
"And I always will be. You're my safe place too." She whispered.
She lay him down next to her, wrapping him into her tight embrace. "I won't let go, you're safe Fly."
"You were right, I'd be in so many terrible situations without you." He sighed.
Honey smirked because she knew she was right. "Get some rest." Before she unexpectedly kissed him on the head.
Fly jolted with shock, not expecting her to do that. He blushed a deep red, before letting out a big sigh as he made himself comfortable next to Honey.
He hoped that these nightmares weren't a sign of what could happen, but nothing ever goes to plan in the sea which he was learning from the second time he's now been a fish. All he wanted was to get this generator sorted and to go home, finally leaving his life being a fish behind him and also for his family and Honey to be safe. Fly knew his fear of the sea was coming to an end, but he'd never be a fish again. He didn't want to give his fear and trauma the satisfaction of affecting him anymore. Fly was determined to enjoy his last time being in the ocean, especially for the love of his life and family. He wanted to make it memorable with no distractions or trouble.
