"Put me down"

The royal guard drops me on the ground.

*thud*

Ouch, what a di*k

"Alright let's not waste any more time, follow me"

The royal guard leads the way through the dock, following him I turn my head back to look at the sight of the landing only to see that the dock was repairing itself the rocks going back into their previous position as if someone was rewinding a tape. I look into the water while walking on the dock to see beautiful fishes of different colours swimming in the water, I stop and dip my finger in the water and I see a rainbow coloured fish who was particularly big, whose scales were changing from white to all the other colours of a rainbow simultaneously giving it a truly exotic look,The fish pauses and we both look into each other eyes.

It immediately swims as fast as it can and tries to chomp on my finger, which only tickles me since it does not have any teeth .it bobs its cute little mouth open and closes around my finger as if it were trying to devour it

*giggle*

The cute little rainbow fish looks dismayed as if it is shocked by the lack of my reaction and open its mouth even wider until one small little sharp tooth is exposed and bites my finger

"ouch"

It immediately swims off after biting me as if its life was in danger. I look down at my finger to see one small drop of blood.

To think that it actually punctured through the skin.

I stand up, only to see that the royal guard was standing in front of me looking at me with concern

"Are you ok? "

"yeah just a small bite"

"just a small bite huh?"

"yes? "

"Nothing, we have already been delayed as it is, follow me without being distracted now, ok"

"alright"

I follow the royal guard along the dock once again, only to see that the rainbow fish was now followed by what seemed like a school of fishes who were all looking at me from inside the water, As soon as I turn my head towards them they all disperse into the surroundings as if they were never there, to begin with

forget it

Dragging my tired feet across the smooth surface of the dock,I follow after the royal guard,with each step,I approach nearer and nearer to the huge doors guarded by two killer whale hybrids similar to the royal guard albeit their stature was like that of a child in front of an adult in comparison to the royal guard.

The royal guard stops my advance by outstretching his arm in front of me, signalling me to stop.

Noticing that I had stopped, He nods his shiny black and smooth bald head at the guard, the guards small and shiny beady eyes shake as if in astonishment and gaze at me, as if to scan me inside out, seemingly dissatisfied he moves out of the way and pushes one of the doors open

"Please wait in the waiting room, you will be informed, when his majesty requires your presence"

*nod*

As I peek inside from the opened door, I see a whole new different world, the floor looked so polished and smooth, I felt that gliding along the surface wouldn't be a problem, The surface had an aquamarine tint to it and the only other thing my eyes observed other than the surface was the sheer number of doors and paths, one would get lost easily if he wasn't familiar with the palace.

"Don't stray away from me, you will get lost and believe me, you don't want to be mistaken as an intruder"

"Yeah"

I follow the royal guard as he takes me through a maze of pathways until we come across a bronze door, On following the royal guard inside, I see sofas made of what seemed to be water gel? Blue embers acted as lights as they were hovering near the ceiling

Impressed, I step inside and suddenly my face meets the ground
