Prologue
It was a dark, stormy night out on the sea of the Emerald Coast. Out in the dark, salty waters, a lone fisherman was on his boat, working late to meet his quota of the day. He watched his nets carefully, looking for any sign of a resistance through the pouring rain of the storm.
Suddenly, one of his nets started to drag behind, a clear sign that he had caught something. He pulled the lever to that net, watching with pride as it started to rise out of the water, bringing thousands upon thousands of blue fish with it.
He pulled the net onboard and dropped it onto the deck, the pile of fish scattering around as they wiggled and squirmed, trying to get back in the water. The fisherman whooped in joy, marking down his catch in his journal when suddenly, he saw something move in the pile.
It wasn't a blue fish like the others. In fact, it wasn't like a fish he had caught before. He could only see parts of the creature, mainly the sharp looking dorsal fins. It wiggled underneath the pile, trying to free itself. And then, all of a sudden, it stopped.
Curious, the fisherman looked closer, trying to make sense of what it actually could be, and wondering if it was dead or not. He gasped as suddenly, a pair of piercing blue eyes looked up at him from underneath the pile of fish. He knew right away what this creature was. He was going to back away, to get as far away from it as he could, when suddenly, he heard the most beautiful song in his entire life.
The song was enchanting, and seemed to echo around him. It was coming from the creature he had just caught.
Unable to control himself, the fisherman went closer to the creature, completely entranced by the beautiful music it was making. When he was close enough, the creature hissed and attacked, pouncing on him, grabbing him with its clawed hands and hissing through a mouth full of razor sharp teeth.
The fisherman screamed in fear and agony as the creature ripped into him, blood spraying across the deck. As the creature finished it's meal, the fisherman's screams faltered, and then, the creature crawled back over the side of the boat, and disappeared back in the water.
