Writing Wednesday #7 ~ Fish

Something in the Water
You wouldn't be able to tell what's wrong with us, not from the outside. Even some people on the inside don't understand.
There's something in the water, you see.
Not the water we drink, nor the water we bathe in. It's in our rivers, and in the ocean that boxes us in, keeping us here.
The fish don't swim beneath the waves as they would in your world, but rather, they glide along the ripples, leering over the water, waiting to strike. Our fish can fly, can yours?
It's not just that, though. Our fish, though not sharks or any other type of predator species, are carnivorous. However, only do they show this vindictive trait when the moon shines its light upon their scales. Only in the twilight can they reveal their fangs. Only in darkness can they show appear in their true light.

I'm going to stop that there, otherwise, it'll end up too much like my original Writing Wednesday, Shark Woods.
So, yet another disappointingly short Writing Wednesday, I'll just let myself out now.

  1. That's so creepy. But Eve, I would just like to thank you for adding 'vindictive' to my vocabulary as I'm trying to improve it for English. So thanks xx

    1. I am the queen of creepy (apparently)! I don't know why I'm using vindictive so much, it's just a cool sounding word *shrugs* Oh well, you're welcome! :)
