Dani slammed down, hard, despite the fact that the water hand softened the blow slightly. Her whole body hurt, but she stood back up. The merman had grabbed the boy that had tried to help her. It was all her fault. Her shoulder was still bleeding, and a new gash on her forehead was as well, but she ran back over and stood in front of the merman. "Put him down!" She swayed from side to side as she spoke, and then fell over. She had passed out.
