You're finally awake after... you can't remember, but you hear water around you and as you open your eyes the mid day son stings your eyes as you right yourself in the water, an island off in the distance and there's a cruise ship on the horizon... wait, you were on vacation right? That's your cruise ship!? Why's it so far away!?!? Your panic interrupted by a splash as you look around frantically, another splash but this time accompanied by a giggle as you turn toward that noise and it's... some kind of blue an teal colored gal floating in the water on a small body board. She speaks. "Hey sailor, you know you shouldn't be in the water, there are sharks out there... now I'm not one to leave someone in distress so if you want I can get you over to that island, the ship just left from there so there's a dock there and you can catch the next boat home." Thank goodness, you were saved. Especially if there were sharks in the water as her tail peaked out of the water now and again as she kept her lips pressed into a smile. As she leaned forward a chill went down your spine as you saw a fin lightly poke out of the water from her tail and the full length visible when she did that, your go-pro was catching everything and she wasn't wrong... there were sharks in the water... She holds a hand out to you and she flashes a toothy smile, those sharp teeth flashing behind those warm eyes. "Take my hand and hold tight when I pull you close, I'm a great swimmer so this shouldn't take more than ten minutes to get you to shore."

Do you accept her help? YES -> Read below
NO -> NEXT
YES
You accept her help and take her hand, pulling you to herself and you latch your arms around her waist as suddenly she darts forward, you shut your eyes as the water sprays at your face now and again, your soaking wet clothes were weighty to you but for some reason the sharkess seemed unfazed by the weight. The green of the island coming closer and the sandy beach and a small little town closing in as she finally brings you into the shallows, feet now touching the ground and she walks you out as she looks to you, she was only about 5'5" compared to you which was a surprise to say the least especially for her... shapely proportions. "No need for thanks! Just follow the road and you'll make it into the bigger city with its dock. Just tell them GiGi helped you out and they should know what happened, those people on that Cruise Liner are really weird. They just kinda throw a few people overboard here and well, a few of us come out an help pull them to shore, maybe it's some kind of 'Dream Rescue' cruise thing? Whatever it is, kinda dumb because why put you guys in danger? I mean... some of us aren't as... 'helpful' to them as they are for themselves, b-but it wasn't like I was gonna eat you! Gosh that'd be weird! Uhh anyway I need to go back on patrol! Stay safe!" You wave as she starts running back into the water and she waves back at you, diving in and disappearing beneath the waves... what was that all about? Well, either way you were save and sound, now it's just a matter of getting your money back from that stupid cruise company...
