Her eyes widened as I spoke in the mer tongue so I asked again. Why? She looked away from me down the slab I was on and I followed her gaze suddenly realizing something was wrong. When I looked down the man who came with her was tugging something around my tail. I hissed in pain and immediately tried to get away from him but the men were still holding me down. I snarled at them with pure hatred willing them to leave me alone but they didn't seem to take the hint. I felt the female rubbing my ear fin again, but I was reluctant to wanting to relax again. For fins sake that man was hurting me! I twisted as he tugged it tighter around my tail. I screeched. I had had enough of this! I struggled to sit up and fling these humans to kingdom come if they kept insisting on touching me! I shrieked at the man baring my fangs at him. That seemed to work as he stepped back looking a little frightened. I hissed and twisted away from the men as they let go. I lay there panting from the exertion. I growled at the men ominously before I let myself enjoy the girl rubbing my fins again. Let that be a lesson to you.
