It was finally the end of school. Alexis was the first to be out of school, she walked brisk, the sun beaming down on her as she crossed the field, it was a shortcut to her house. She gently opened the door so that it wouldn't make a sound. As she stepped in the air felt cold, she could hear her adoption parents arguing. As they were shouting and swearing at one another she quickly got changed into her black shorts and black tank top and black flip flops. She was dressed very bare for saying it was early spring but she had to wear minimum clothes when she went 'diving'.

As she arrived at the beach she kicked of her flip flops and ran across the beach. She loved the feel of her toes sinking into the sand; in fact it was probably one of the only advantages of being a human. She eventually stopped as she came towards her cave; it was her personal secret place. She removed her shorts and tank top so that she just was just in her bikini. Quickly poking her head out of the cave to check the beach was empty before pulling her had back in. Alexis breathed twice before running out and diving into the sea.

Her toes tingled as she transformed until she was in her favourite form… her mermaid form. The water rushed past her face as she swam deeper. She eventually arrived at her beloved home; her parents welcomed her with a hug,

"I'm so happy to see you my beautiful girl," her mother smilled.
