Ocean eyes, salty kiss ((2 person!))

"Okay, the mall!" I hooked my arm in his before I paused, "Two questions: what's a mall and where's it at?"

I smiled and began to walk, "A mall is a big building with my shops and forms of entertainment inside."

I nodded, entirely facinated by everything he told me, "From what I have seen of humans, I have seen from boats. All technology that I know of is from there. I also figured there was more to humans than just that, but I never thought there would be so much to it." I laughed, enjoying the sunshine as we walked.

"Boats? That has the least of our world on it. I have things in my pocket wish are more advanced than most boats." I said as we walked, the air warm but not oppressingly so.

I nodded, "The humans here on land are much different too. If a sailor saw me, he would usually pull out a weapon. Of if I got caught in their nets they would try to hit me with something. Forunately I am very good with getting out of nets."

"Sailors are more superstitious than most people, seeing something different scares them."

"Perhaps..." I did not mention most time I came across sailors, I was attacking them. Usually I didn't hurt them too badly, but I had been loosing myself more and more over the past few weeks that it has come time to feed.
"I wanted to ask... What were you doing on the beach the day you found me?"

"Trying to prove that your kind didn't exist or at least attack random people."

"Well, uh... That plan went well." I gave a small laugh.

"Well there was no proof besides the bodies and I'm still not sire of that was your people."

I had a small sinking feeling in my stomach, "Tell me about the bodies."

"Long gashes all over the body with strange salt covering the wounds."

I looked up towards him, biting my lip, "and what was the color of the salt?"

"Various colours, red, green, rainbow, it was weird."

I nodded, looking down again as we walked. Well, at least I knew who exactly had killed those sailors. Every creature like me had their own color of salt. It was an identification. My brother, Winter, his was a steely gray. Rocas was a dark purple almost black. And mine... Mine was multi-hued, shimmering different colors of the rainbow. That must have been the night I really lost it; I couldn't even remember killing them.'only that I had been so thirsty, and then waking up feeling satisfied.

"But the weirdest one was that i woke up with some on my shoulder." I said, showing her my arm where the rainbow salt had formed

I gently took his arm, extending it out to catch the sunlight, blushing slightly.
"Often when we touch bare skin the salt forms over if we are not careful. We actually have to focus to not leave the salt behind. It's actually fairly easy to get rid of if you know how."

"Care to tell me then?" I asked, making a note to ask what she knew about them.

"There are several ways. First, if you leave a few stands if seaweed on it for a few minutes it just comes right off. Or, a cuttlefish takes it off. The easiest method we use to remove salt stains is actually tears." I laughed, "We cry alot, so our own salt stains just come off naturally where we live."

"You cry a lot?"

I looked up at him, a bit surprised by the question. Nonetheless, I answered, "Well, yes. I would say I cry often."

"why?2 i asked frowning as we drew near to the mall

"I mess up on things alot. I loose control." I looked up towards the giant building we were approaching.

"Lose control?" I said, slowly processing the information, "Like when?"

I did not answer for a moment, then replied softly, "Usually at night..."
