Siren's Song
by BluRider
Mawari felt an almost electric tingle run down her body when she heard the first strains of the music. It sounded like a distant song; high, clear and beautiful. Enchanted by its loveliness, the usually strict, straight-laced young girl began to stretch out and relax, closing her eyes and letting her toes curl in the soft, warm sand as she lay in the sun and just listened.
It felt wonderful just to lay there and rest, breathing in the crisp ocean air and letting the music wash over her. Its melody was subtle and enticing over the soothing rush of waves against the shore. The electric feeling returned slowly, and Mawari squirmed a little on her towel as she resisted the urge to run her hands down her tingling body. The teenage girl's breath caught as her blue, two-piece bikini began to feel tighter and tighter. A slow, deep blush crept up her body as she realized what was happening. Her nipples stood out clearly, straining against the fabric of her bikini top as she sat up in a rush and crossed her arms over her breasts in anger and embarrassment.
Getting sharply to her feet with a bewildered and annoyed expression, the beautiful brunette began striding in the direction the music was coming from. She didn't quite know what was happening, but she knew a disruption of public morals when she... felt one. Mawari shook her head dizzily. She told herself that it was her duty to bring the perpetrators of this lewd musical perversion to justice; but as she listened for the sound and began to walk a direct, unhesitating line toward the source of it, Mawari's feet began to move forward seemingly of their own accord, and despite herself she wasn't sure she could've turned back if she wanted to.
Edomae Lunar's body was still that of a redhaired child above the waist. The underdeveloped young teen's tiny breasts were covered only by the twintails of her wet, strawberry hair as she floated lazily in the water, hidden by the stony seashore's tidal pools. Beneath the surface, however, her body ended in a glorious, glistening tail, golden yellow and with elegant, diaphanous fins. The sharp-eyed little mermaid was singing, softly so as not to be heard from the public beach, a charming melody of her own design. She had worked a long time to perfect it, and felt at last that this new song - alongside the magic of her mermaid voice - would finally take her career as an Idol to the next level. So compelling was this music, she felt that even Seto San - her greatest rival, who seemed to effortlessly defeat her at everything - would never outdo it. Lunar smiled as she sang joyfully. Her hard work had paid off, at last.
"L-Lunar...?" came a frightened-sounding voice from her side.
The smile dropped off the mermaid's face. A human had clambered over the rocks to her hidden rock pool - and recognized her face! She whirled around in horror, causing her twintails to flick aside, revealing her nude chest. Lunar's pupils shrank to points of wordless shock as she recognized Mawari. She'd been seen... her friend had seen the tail! The other mermaids might kill the girl, just to keep knowledge of their race from humans. Spots before her eyes - singing weakly, too bewildered even to have stopped - Lunar's mind raced for a solution.
"S-skinny dipping...?" Mawari mouthed, blushing as she stared at Lunar's exposed nipples. As if a dam had broken inside of her, anger flooded out of the strict young human girl all at once as she blushed even redder and shouted: "Must Mawari teach you the rules of society?!"
To the shouting Mawari's surprise, Edomae Lunar's face brightened up immediately, suddenly relieved. She hadn't seen! Mawari couldn't see her fish-tail in the surf! Her heart still pounding, Lunar let out a long, shaky breath, and started to sing once again as she began moving away toward the ocean, trying to distract the girl with her music.
Mawari blinked. Was Lunar really trying to cover her escape with more singing? The brown-haired teen boggled at the mere idea, and yet there was something about the music that was making it hard to follow Lunar with her eyes... difficult even to remember what she was trying to... Mawari felt the electric tingling sensation again: that perverted feeling, making her want to close her eyes and run her hands down her body as she shivered in pleasure and confusion. Her outrage gave her focus. She frowned angrily, focusing on the indecently nude Lunar and her strange, immoral music.
Suddenly shouting, "Stop that! I will bring you to justice!" Mawari dived directly at Lunar.
Interrupted mid-song, with Mawari about to inevitably discover her secret as she plummeted towards her and the water, Lunar's eyes ballooned, she recoiled, and the water itself rippled outward in a blast of ultrasonic noise as the mermaid's beautiful song warped into a terrified, ear-splitting shriek!
Her already-dazed friend was struck directly by the blast of noise before her own body struck Lunar's and both high-schoolers went straight to the bottom. Each girl tumbled head-over-heels under the water, before they surfaced face-to-face. Lunar coughed and spluttered, having almost swallowed a mouthful of sand. Mawari, by contrast, bobbed quietly at the surface. She looked even more dazed, her face and eyes totally blank after being hit by the powerful wave of sound. The seawater lapping at her body unheeded as she treaded water in the surf, Mawari just stared at Lunar as if searching for something in her eyes.
"M-Mawari?" asked Lunar, genuinely worried. "You're... alright. Aren't you?"
Her mouth seeming to fall slack as she began to speak, Mawari answered with a drawn-out, "Yes..."
With a flick of her powerful tail, Lunar grabbed hold of Mawari and raised her to sit on a nearby rock. Then, she worriedly reached out to touch Mawari's face. "Um... how are you feeling?"
"Uhh... O-... obedient..." replied the brunette, her eyes beginning to roll up in her head.
Lunar gaped at her companion, who began to recline backwards in the sun with her face still blank and mindless. "Obedient? Y-you mean you'll... do what I say?"
Mawari nodded, her head lolling unsteadily.
"No way..." Lunar's acute eyes looked deep into Mawari's. "Hey, I order you to stand up!"
"Stand up..." Mawari answered, already scrambling to her feet.
Lunar gaped. "Pat your head while rubbing your stomach."
Mawari did so, her movements wooden but accurate.
The pink-haired mermaid blushed, and added, "Now, take off your bikini."
Mawari froze, her misted-over eyes blinking into a somewhat alert-looking horrified stare directly at Lunar. The high-schooler's hands twitched toward the bikini top, but they didn't move. "N-no way!" she stammered weakly.
An odd expression on her face, Lunar just watched Mawari squirm. "Hey, Mawari," she began, finally.
The short-haired girl's sizable breasts squished up against her legs as she kneeled down and leaned closer and closer to her rosy-haired friend down in the water. "Yyeessss..." she whispered softly.
Lunar cupped Mawari's chin in one hand as the girl, leaning so low she was in danger of falling in herself, began to blink the life back into her dull eyes. A bit of the compelling rhythm of her mermaid song crept back into her voice as Lunar said, "Listen to this..."
Mawari's slightly confused expression gave way to a slack-faced, utterly captivated look as Lunar's song began again; but differently, this time: humming with an unseen energy that resonated in her very bones. It was as if Lunar had combined the beauty and intrigue of her new song with a hint of the raw, resonating power of her ultrasonic shout. The schoolgirl made an "Oohhhh..." sound, as her body loosened up completely, and she seemed almost to melt into herself with relaxation.
"M-Mawari..." mouthed Lunar anxiously.
Her friend stared back with an expression entirely empty of thought, her mouth drooling slightly as she replied, "Yyesss..."
"T-...Take off your bikini!" she stammered, refusing to look Mawari in the eye.
The absolutely entranced girl stiffened immediately, her body jolted into action. Lunar squealed and covered her eyes as her strict, conservative friend got up and reached behind her to untie the string. Peering between her fingers as Mawari's breasts bounced free, and her hypnotized servant began sliding off her bikini bottoms, Lunar suddenly cried out in victory and slapped the water with joy.
"I can't believe it! You'll do ANYTHING!" exulted the young mermaid.
"A-anything..." drawled Mawari, standing stark naked on the weather-beaten rock.
"This is... the ultimate music..." Lunar exclaimed in sudden breathless amazement. "This is the Song of the Siren!"
Her eyes rolling up again, Mawari did not reply.
Lunar's eyes sparkled mischievously. "Mawari, when I snap my fingers, you will awaken from your trance with no memory of what happened, or of my being a mermaid. You will bring me Sun-chan, do you understand? Tell her that she just has to come hear my new song - then when I start singing, grab hold of her and don't let her escape!"
Mawari jumped slightly as Lunar snapped her fingers. Then, the hypnotized young girl turned immediately around - still totally naked - and headed directly for the beach.
"W-wait!" cried Lunar, trying to scramble out of the water with her fish-tail, to catch Mawari. "You're still naked! You have to put on your-"
Mawari didn't seem to notice her at all - and as she disappeared around the rocky rise back to the beach, Lunar herself also failed to notice something about Mawari: despite Lunar's orders to awaken, the naked young girl still walked stiffly, her face slack and blank, her dizzy eyes still swirling with the Idol's hypnotic music, and her nipples standing up stiffly as she repeated her Mistress' orders, and then mindlessly obeyed.
"Lunar!" came the unmistakable voice of Seto Sun, her friend and rival - also secretly a mermaid.
Lunar grinned evilly, swimming into a recessed hollow where the tidal pool's acoustics were the best.
"Lunar! Where are you?" Sun was calling. Judging by the sound, she was almost close enough...
The golden-tailed mermaid began to sing her dizzying, mesmerizing ultrasonic melody, knowing Mawari would grab hold of her rival Sun-chan unexpectedly, and hold her fast until she succumbed to Lunar's spell.
She smiled broadly as she sang. Lights out for you, Seto Sun, she said to herself.
Then her teenage rival's toned, curvaceous figure and lustrous golden-brown hair appeared around the corner. Lunar made a strangled noise. Mawari was nowhere to be seen.
"Y-you!" cried Lunar in mid-song, an angry toss of her head again uncovering her nipples. "Where's Mawari?"
Sun tilted her head in an infuriatingly cute expression of curiosity, "I was about to tell you: I saw her heading toward the beach acting a little strangely. How did you know?"
"She... didn't lead you here?" whined Lunar, crestfallen.
"Uh... no?" replied Sun. "Why? Should she have?" Then, her eyes fell on some scraps of crumpled blue fabric. "Hey, is that her swimsuit? What happened?"
"I, uh, we..." Lunar began to sweat. "Mawari was listening to my new song when, uh, she told me she needed to cool off a bit. Then, uh, she just took off. I didn't see where she went." Lunar cringed and bit her lip even as she told these transparent lies. "She must've left her swimsuit?" she finished lamely.
Sun gave her a long, flat look. Lunar cringed away further, her rival's eyes seeming to bore through her to the truth. Sun bared her teeth. Lunar yelped.
"You have a new song? Can I hear it?" Sun squealed. She was grinning warmly.
Lunar's face twitched. "Say what?"
"Pleeease?" Sun wheedled, beaming at Lunar. "I want to hear it. I'm sure Mawari would just be embarrassed if we went after her anyway."
The flat-chested young mermaid cleared her throat nervously, rising higher in the water and replying with a falsetto, "Yes, of course!" and a fake laugh. "S-she would want you to stay right here, and listen closely to this song..."
Sun nodded cheerfully, and began to smile broadly as Lunar's sweet, high voice rose once again in the compelling strains of that same wonderful melody she had heard snatches of before.
Lunar was unable to believe her luck as her greatest rival stood above her on the rocks, directly at the acoustic focus of her little hollow, absorbing the full impact of her song and smiling broadly. She sang higher and stronger in an effort to ensnare Sun-chan's mind the way she had Mawari's. Slowly, she worked in the same ultrasonic strains that had turned Mawari into her mindless marionette.
Sun took it all in, her glittering eyes widening in wonder. She even raised her hands like a conductor's, swinging them in time with Lunar's music.
Increasing the reverberating power of the music to the point that she herself felt a little dizzy, Lunar sang a high and clear crescendo, the waves of sound rolling over her beautiful rival intoxicatingly. With a flourish, she brought her magical song to an end.
Sun clapped excitedly.
"Uh, how do you feel, Sun?" the young mermaid in the water asked, her voice a little hoarse.
"Amazed!" replied Sun. "Your new music is really incredible. I love it!"
Lunar frowned, and began singing again, louder this time.
Sun's head reverberated with the music. Dizzily, she took a step towards Lunar. "L-Lunar, that's too loud!" she cried.
Lunar kept singing, her eyes lighting up.
"What are you trying to- whoa!" Sun yelled, stepping off the rock and tumbling with a splash into the sea.
With a flash of light her lower body transformed, Sun's bikini bottoms floating free as her legs and hips became a shining pink fish-tail as exquisite and beautiful as Lunar's own.
Sun spluttered, shouting angrily at Lunar. "What're you- stay quiet! You know what... happens if... humans investigate," she coughed, shaking her head dizzily, "... and see our mermaid forms."
"Shh, I know," cooed Lunar in-between the strains of her singing, gliding effortlessly closer to the bewildered Sun, lowering her voice and focusing her song directly in her rival's face as she grasped the other mermaid by the shoulders.
Sun's eyes widened in sudden panic, and she began to squirm against her rival's grip. "L-Lunar, you're... w-what're you..."
Lunar held on with all her might, both mermaids splashing like landed fish in the shallows as she continued to intone her song, high and powerful, focused completely on the slowly weakening Sun-chan.
Being a mermaid, her resistance to the song was many times Mawari's; but nevertheless, Sun's eyes began to glaze over, her struggles to cease, as the entrancing music that enveloped her became her world.
"The... music..." Sun mouthed slowly, her voice barely above a whisper as her eyes stared directly, and helplessly, into Lunar's own.
Lunar smiled wickedly, finishing her song. Her look was predatory as she asked, "How do you feel, Sun-chan?"
"Uh..." the mermaid squirmed, trying to fight the overwhelming sensation as her staring eyes began to roll up in her head. "I f-feel... Obedient..." Her jaw fell open, as if in shock at her own words.
"Good girl, Sun-chan..." whispered Lunar, leaning closer. "Very good girl. You will do anything I say, won't you, Sun-chan?"
"N-... n-..." the brown-haired mermaid tossed her golden-brown locks to and fro as she dizzily shook her head in a futile attempt to clear it. "I..."
"Shhh, Sun-chan. Shh..." Her pink-haired mistress placed a finger on Sun's forehead, causing the entranced girl's wide, blank eyes to snap instantly to that point. "Don't worry about anything... just obey me..."
"O...bey... y-yess..." Sun couldn't look away now, her sparkling brown eyes transfixed.
Lunar leaned even closer, her lips almost touching Sun's own. The tiny mounds of the young idol's naked chest were pressed hard against Sun's ample cleavage through the thin barrier of the hypnotized mermaid's frilly pink bikini-top. Slowly, Lunar's finger traced down from Sun's forehead until it fell across her lips. "Shh... I order you to take off your bikini."
"I... m-must obey..." came Sun's reluctant words of submission. A moment later, she had unlaced her bikini top, the mermaid now completely naked in the water.
"Yes! Finally, the ultimate song!" squealed Lunar, hugging the enslaved Sun happily. Their naked breasts rubbed against one another, and both girls' nipples became stiff and pointed. "Even you cannot fight it for long, Seto Sun."
"N... no!" Her body shuddering, Sun began to squirm again. "M-must... fight..." she moaned.
"Now just listen closely, until you become entirely mine to do with as I please!" ordered Lunar, once again raising her voice in song.
Sun couldn't help herself as she began to listen closely, whispering, "Y-yes... master."
Suddenly, another voice cut in. "How vexing."
Lunar's mermaid-tail twitched violently, nearly throwing her out of the water in shock. She shrieked in mid-song, falling away from the hypnotized Sun-chan. Her entranced mermaid prey floated peacefully, unbothered. Lunar herself peered upward with big eyes, clenching her teeth. Looming over both of them was the owner of that cold, implacable voice: a tall and pitiless-looking teenage girl in a sensible black bikini, her long ponytail flowing majestically in the wind as she glared angrily down into the rock-pool.
"A-Akeno!" stammered Lunar, the blood freezing in her veins. For a long moment, silence reigned, until blind panic set in. Waving her hands wildly, Lunar began to speak rapidly, "I- I was just... there was a... I've handled-"
"Silence!" snapped Akeno, the young Mermaid Examiner producing a katana seemingly from nowhere. The deadly-sharp sword shone with an elegant, pitiless beauty that was equal to its wielder's.
The pink-haired mermaid swallowed hard. "I... I haven't broken any of our laws! I never did anything permanent, and... and w-we're both mermai-"
Another girl stepped to Akeno's side, wrapped in a towel and looking just as serious and implacable. It was Mawari. The police-chief's daughter was livid with barely-repressed rage.
Lunar's teeth clenched again, caught in a lie. She opened her mouth as if to explain - but instead began to sing her melodious, irresistible song of mind-enslaving power, at exactly the pitch and volume that had almost broken even her rival's powerful will completely: the legendary Song of the Siren.
It was cut off not a moment later, however, as Akeno leapt to the attack with her katana! Lunar screamed in utter terror, kicking backwards for all she was worth, swimming around the stones toward the large rock where she'd left her towel.
"Do not try to esca-" began Akeno.
"Grab hold of her!" cried Lunar, "I command you!"
Sun trembled in the water, involuntarily moving forward slightly, then stopping completely as her hair fell down across her face. Then, the young mermaid seemed to lift out of the water slightly, her hair settling to cover her large breasts, and Lunar could almost see the cherry-blossoms start to fall around her as she took an elegant pose reminiscent of a samurai warrior. "The alternate reading of the character for 'chivalry' is 'mermaid'. No true mermaid would sully her honour the way you have. Certainly not I!"
The Examiner nodded approvingly at Sun. "You will face harsh punishment for your crime, Edomae Lunar." Akeno pronounced as she stalked skilfully across the rocks, moving to cut off the fleeing Lunar before she reached her towel.
Mawari leapt down as if to follow after Lunar. Suddenly, she grappled Akeno with a ferocious lunge, knocking the katana from her hands. Her towel had slipped away. She was completely naked. The brunette's eyes were wide and blank. Her body was shivering. The katana clattered on the rocks. Akeno struggled to throw the human girl off. Mawari was enslaved by the music. Just the tiniest part had immediately put her under. She couldn't help it... she was completely in Lunar's thrall.
Lunar scrambled onto the rock and snatched her towel as Mawari wrestled with Akeno. Rushing, the young idol rubbed the towel as quickly as she could over her long golden tail, attempting to dry it completely. Akeno twisted to pin the naked Mawari's arms. Sun swam to attack Lunar, her head high with a chivalrous spirit. Lunar's tail shone blindingly as she turned back into a fully human form. Akeno wrestled Mawari to the ground. Seto Sun climbed up the rock toward Lunar. The pain snapped Mawari out of her trance. She cried for help. The pink-haired mermaid, now a naked human girl, began to run away. Akeno scooped up her katana. Sun caught Lunar's leg, violently tugging her off her feet.
Then, with a heart-rending, ultrasonic cry of pain as she hit the rock, the staggered Lunar launched again into her powerful, mind-enslaving music. Desperate, terrified, overwhelmed and fighting back with pure adrenaline against the mermaid now attacking her, Lunar put everything she had into this song... and the resulting music echoed out so powerfully, that even Lunar herself felt overwhelmed by it.
Mawari stared. Sun froze. Akeno stopped. All of a sudden, Mawari rose unsteadily up, her breasts wobbling freely, her facial expression transitioning immediately to one of slavish and unthinking obedience. "O-... obeyyyy..." she droned eerily, the pain forgotten as she immediately turned back into a mindless puppet for her master. The nipples stood up on her heaving breasts, her areolas going red and puffy as the song grew ever more powerful. She writhed in utter ecstasy as her mind shut down completely, her obedience giving her pleasure.
The music caught Seto San raised up over her rival in a chivalrous pose, the mermaid preparing to deliver an honorable finishing blow to knock out her opponent. She never completed the movement, however, as her eyes glazed over when the music hit. Her pose relaxed. She fell slowly backward. Her hands let go of the compellingly singing Lunar. Shaking her head, struggling, and trying helplessly to push herself away with her tail, Sun felt herself giving in to the music. As her own body began to writhe in abject pleasure, she knew that it was almost over. Soon, she too would be completely enslaved, like Mawari. Her eyes rolled up. She no longer cared.
The song intensified. Mawari's mind blacked out completely. Sun could no longer resist, losing herself to obedience and pleasure. Lunar herself was hanging on by a thread, compelled somehow to join them.
Akeno was still coming, her katana raised.
Lunar nearly fainted, her song faltering. Her heart was in her mouth, her eyes boggling as the girl in the black bikini landed a perfect flying leap across to her stone. Akeno alighted on her feet and ignored the hypnotized Sun completely as she strode forward with her sword pointed at Lunar.
"We are trained to resist this kind of thing," she said simply, in a killing stance. "Now desist from singing. You are under arrest. Resist me again, and you will die."
Lunar's lip quivered. Her song wavered. She scrambled backwards on her hands and feet.
Akeno raised the sword tip to the point of Lunar's nose. "You have five seconds."
Crying, Lunar tried to focus through the tears. Her song swelled powerfully, her voice thick with passion.
Akeno remained unaffected. "Four," she said.
Lunar shook her own head dizzily. She felt... what was this feeling? Her deep breaths grew labored. She studied Akeno carefully, wishing desperately to see some kind of change.
Akeno's brow lowered dangerously. Her eyes, still clear and in control, were fixed on Lunar. "Three."
Lunar recognized the feeling now. She felt... obedient. A surge of hot pleasure rippled across the little girl's body at this thought, and her own hands ran up and down her naked flesh as she felt herself falling into the song's power, now writhing helplessly in her own music. She stared up at Akeno's sword-point, her eyes glistening with tears and terror and surprise. Still, she would not back down, remaining determined and defiant even in her deepening hypnotic trance, still keeping the song intensely on Akeno.
The black-haired girl showed no pity. No emotion at all. Still perfectly icy. "Two." She was preparing herself to kill.
Despair flowed over Lunar. It was over. Her song faltered. She was close to losing her own free will entirely. The feeling was intoxicating. Lunar could barely resist it, but Akeno hadn't even flinched.
Flatly, a mask of deadly intent settling over her features, Akeno said, "One."
Her voice breaking out into sobs, Lunar stopped singing. She fell down in a heap, entirely spent.
Akeno nodded. "Wise move."
Feeling sick and confused, Lunar felt like wailing at the top of her lungs, but was afraid to make a sound. Her body was still awash with the irresistible pleasure of becoming almost entirely entranced. Lunar was afraid the slightest sound in her own ultrasonic voice could drive her over the edge, into complete enslavement. Next to her, Sun remained in deep hypnosis. She was so far under now, she couldn't ever fully wake. A mere snatch of the music would be enough to make her Lunar's obedient slave, any time she wanted... and Mawari, too, still writhed in pleasure on the rock, completely in her thrall. Not that it mattered, for the world would never hear this song again. The only girl unaffected by the music, Akeno would make sure of that. It wasn't fair. The tears came back for Lunar. There was nothing she could do.
Akeno reached down toward Lunar, to grab her in a submission hold and march her to her doom. The moment seemed to lengthen into a horrible eternity, the black-haired girl's strong, skilful hands roughly twisting Lunar's arms behind her back, and pressing her stiff nipples up against the little girl's naked back through her bikini as she shoved her prisoner bodily forward in an enforced march, before pulling her back in as she misstepped slightly.
Twisting in surprise, Lunar stared into her captor's eyes. She felt her own body lurch dizzily just from turning around, her body tingling with involuntary arousal where Akeno had grabbed her. Through the haze, she noted Akeno's slight swaying. It was almost imperceptible, but what was more difficult to hide was the sheer prominence of her nipples through the black bikini. It was affecting her.
Akeno's eyes narrowed, her sword back in her hands. "Don't even think about it."
Lunar didn't think. Her naked body trembled as her mouth opened wide in a song so high and pure and irresistible that all of her own thoughts were drawn completely into the music, washed away completely as she fell entirely, inevitably, inescapably under her own ultimate trance, her body totally enslaved to it forever. As she fell into mindless, abject obedience, the music changed. It stripped out any part of Lunar, leaving only the pure Song of the Siren. She had become its vessel, singing now without a conscious purpose. Just a little naked puppet for the song.
Akeno's willpower could hold out no longer. As the other girls were drawn ever deeper into unreasoning obedience at her side, unable to ever escape, she felt her own mind giving way under the strain of trying to resist the legendary song's purest form. Akeno barely had a chance to regret her own failure before she felt herself snap to attention obediently, saying, "I am your slave, my mistress. I will always obey." Even in the depths of hypnosis she tried to hold out, refusing to become the music's permanent slave like the others... but before long her hands had started moving on her tingling skin of their own accord, rubbing up and down under and over her bikini. As the fabric finally came off, her breasts throbbing at the contact, Akeno's eyes rolled up in her head and her consciousness died away completely.

"Sun-chaaan?" called Sarutobi. "Lunar? Mawa- aaah... ri?" The monkey-like young man stopped suddenly, catching a glimpse of something in the middle-distance, hidden by some rocks. It looked like... a glistening, naked breast.
Saru immediately shut up, unwilling to share his discovery. He lowered his stance into a stealthy prowl, and quietly entered the hidden rock pool, to be met by the most unforgettable sight of his life.
Sun, Lunar, Akeno and Mawari lay stretched out naked among the rock-pools, all of them in the forms of beautiful, long-legged, softly moaning human girls, their swimsuits long since washed away. Fortunately for them, and unbeknownst to Saru, the mermaids' fish-tails were hidden now that the sun had dried them out.
Saru's hands twitched, and he began to drool involuntarily. Even still, he was worried. "G-girls?" he stammered first of all, "Are you alright?"
The beautiful enslaved girls didn't shy away at all, instead replying with a monotone, "Yes, Master..."
Saru's nose was bleeding freely. "Oh, thank you God."
