Chapter 10: Kavookavala!*
End of the day, on the shores of Dandelion Island on a small fishing boat.
Patrick, also known as the "Parrot".
I was arranging things on the boat and getting ready to start go up the river. I can not help looking at my little bucket and my net ...
"*sigh*... one more day without getting any shrimp"
My parents died of illness two years ago, since then I have to provide for the family.
Luckily my family is small, just me and the five year old twins ... But still things are not easy. I have to give money for the village taxes and have to get food for us, but lately the shrimp are not showing up.
I hope the guards are in a good mood when they come to collect the money.
The wind stopped helping me and I'm starting to climb the river, with no options I take the oars and start to go upstream.
When I went to give my third row I see a giant running on the beach towards me. He has almost twice my size, white hair and darker skin.
I panic and don't know how to react, he has a menacing face and I can see the nostrils retracting and relaxing as he runs. Even wearing his strange clothes I can see the explosive muscles and a giant hammer in his hands.
As he approaches the river, he jumps in my direction, a huge *SPLASH* sound along with violent waves wake me up. I begin to paddle with all my might, afraid of what this person can do against me.
But it was too late, a giant hand grabs the edge of the boat. I begin to fear for my life, the second hand also grabs the boat, when he makes force to climb the boat almost turns and he finally puts the body in and the boat sinks a little. My heart is racing, but seeing him lying down I relax a little and now that I can see him up close, he is almost the same size as the boat.
He breathes deeply, he does not seem to be a good swimmer even though his clothes look like shark scales but have a dark coloring. In the center of his chest has a strange family crest, this looks like several hooks forming a circle.
A thought comes to mind and then my eyes grow so big they almost fall out of the socket! I almost lose all my air! Shark Scales! He's having trouble breathing! Hook symbol! Maybe ... no ... would he be one? A merman? The other fishermen have already told me stories about people like this, I never believed but in front of me one appears!
Maybe he can give me the blessing of the sea and my problems would be solved! I can already imagine my boat full of shrimp!
He quickly recovers and sits looking at me. My eyes shine as I bow and ask as politely as I can "Sir, may I ask you where you come from?"
"@!#$%&" He looks sadly at the water and says in a tongue I've never heard.
'Maybe he really is a merman! But how can I talk to him?' he looks at me and points to the oars. I do not know if he wants to row or if I should row ... or where I should go, in the middle of my panic he supports his legs out of the boat and closes his eyes. 'Oh' so I row? ... I begin to take us to my cabin in the village!
------------------
This strange boy keeps staring at me.
It's been 5 minutes since I told him to paddle, we're going up the river so I decided to look at the landscape, but I always feel noticed and it's that brat! But that is not the worst part, he just does not shut up, I can not understand what he says and he knows I do not understand, but even so he's not stopping talking.
...
we arrived in a river village, like those of the amazon forest!
The boy tied the boat in a floating house and went up, I also went after him, checking if I left nothing behind.
The house is made of wood and is quite old, two rooms only. Inside has a large bench and a small table. As soon as we get in, two little kids run out of the room and hug the brat that bring me. They start to talk in their own language and then the children bow to me.
I smile, but I'm already a bit pissed. Where's my reward? This is a village!
