The mystical mermaid quickly swam through
- The mystical mermaid quickly swam through the choppy waves. She knew she had to get back to her cove before the tide rolled in.
- Unfortunately, in her haste to get home, she didn't notice the rope tangled around her tail. Writhing and thrusting against the waves, Serena twisted her body futilely. "Adrian!
- I now isn't a good time. But I need to tell you, I'm a mermaid!" Adrian was flabbergasted, "Really?" he asked. "I must get home now"! Said Serena, "Help me free my tail here!".
- "Just hold on!" yelled Adrian. Serena, the mermaid, waited still stuck in the net. Adrian came back with a camera and a measuring tape. "Top prize!"
- Adrian was ecstatic, he had never won anything in his life until now. Serena wanted desperately to free herself from the net and return to the freedom of the sea. The mermaid sadly
- pondered her fate. She then got an idea. She reached back and let down her long, flowing mermaid hair and motioned to Adrian. He ran over eagerly. She whispered to him thru the net
- "Release me, please." But the way she said it was different. It was firm, took notice of his feelings, acknowledged them, but insisted on his releasing her. Adrian released the mer
- maid just as his friends came running up the pier. "Hey, why did you let her go", screamed Tim Snook. "Because she asked me to", answered Adrian, surprised at himself. The mermaid
- swam out 200 yards or so, then turned and waved to Andrian, who smiled and waved back. "You idiot!" cried Tim, "that mermaid could have made you rich!" But Adrian knew that he
- had done the right thing. Money was nothing compared to the sight of the mermaid happily frolicking in the waves, her shimmering tail refracting the pink dusk light. Adrian beamed.

This is the most coherent story I've ever seen on this site! Wow!

I guess a Mermaid is character that's hard to lose. Still, Adrian did so voluntarily. Kudos to him.

I am not saying nothing when I say I am saying nothing.

Eh...coherence is over-rated. And dance by the light of the moon. Mom? Happily ever after. The End.

What do you want Mary? Do you want the moon? Do you want me to lasso the moon for you Mary?
