I'm a Stingray?

Gazing at the very beings that were shaking her soul, Alba pointed out with a stutter. "You are supposed to be dead... the tunafish told me so!"

Rather confident at this point after enjoying the fear in this opposer's eyes, one of these diamond stingrays had to speak out, specifically one of the men. "Being dead and being in hiding has a fine line, the difference would be life and death itself. So you were gravely mistaken, misinformed."

At this point unable to catch up, solely because of fear and not stupidity, Alba stuttered. "What? This uhhh... what?"

Seeing that her friend might have complicated things a bit too much, the boss of these large stingrays swooped in the conversation. "Let me cut it short, you will die."

Although stubborn, she could understand when the odds didn't nearly favour her. So that considered, she took a sharp turn and headed for what we can label as the shores of this piece of land.

But that itself would be a bad idea, the first reason being the shores stretching a kilometer away. It's fair to say that the tough and partially calculative Alba, was scared for her life and was fleeing because of it too.

"Thank you! I'd be a tuna meal if you weren't here." Timmy thanked after assuring that the enemy had swam far enough not to hear that.

Before the boss of these diamonds was about to answer, they could hear quite a whistle breaching the atmosphere and poking a hole in the coral a foot beneath Timmy.

Taking a look at their left, it was easy to comprehend that the humans had recovered from the attack the little sea pancake had unleashed and were ready to make their pain worth while.

Understanding that Timothy was ready to charge against them just by judging the wiggle on his tail, the boss of her own kind started controlling the other fish around her. "Go kill your enemy there, we will handle the humans!"

Seeing the bigger enemies getting closer, the youngest here couldn't help asking. "Are you sure? They have strong weapons!"

Speaking for the rest, the least talkative man of this little group, assured. "You were able to cause a blood pool beneath them, we can do it 10 times better. It was only a matter of realising it."

And then directly charged towards the humans, a second later he slapped the water with one fin and began swimming at a 45° angle, a spear poked the waters right after and landed right near Timmy, again.

At this point, one of these stingrays had proved highly observant, the young one's techniques were being copied and the sudden courage of these large sea disks, assured that thought.

Craving revenge but not wanting anyone in this group of stingrays dead, Tim turned to his friends and requested. "Go help them, I will handle Alba."

Soon as Tim let out that demand, a larger than ever blood pool had captured their attention. The 2 other stingrays rushed to battle as they had feared the inevitable.

But at that second, the two fighting bodies 15 meters away, turned to their side. Which granted a clear yet graphic vision, the diamond stingray's barb was barged through and through the spearfisherman who unleashed the first shot earlier.

The humans around him were staggered but yet almost ready to attack, their spears pointed towards the enemy but they couldn't shoot in the fears of hitting their friend with a deadly spear.

The confused ones didn't know what hit them as a pain over 7 centimeters thick, captured their gut. The remaining diamond stingrays had arrived in battle and their presence was impossible to not pay attention at.

Feeling absolutely certain that these fish can handle the situation, Tim started off against the water with a burst of speed and maintained it. Who knows how far Alba had gone until now but at least finding her shouldn't be a problem considering her grey natural colour, it wasn't so useful here where all coral was yellow.

About 5 minutes later he was able to spot the lady he so dreaded, she had slowed down and took shelter on the bottom of these unique corals, in what we can call a bit of a crack.

She was well hidden and if her grey features hadn't captured the boy's vision in the midst of that 20 mp/h speed, he would have most likely missed the arch enemy.

Lucky at best but such a situation can be used to his advantage now, so the little pancake swooped down to face the lady whom was twice his size.

First, his fins met the sand with a bit of a crash considering all the speed built up but luckily it didn't cause any damage at all.

Yet still confident after seeing him alone, Alba barged from the hole she was hidden in and then stopped on the spot, which allowed that deadly tail to swoop forward.

Although not expecting such an outburst all thanks to seeing her flee a bit earlier, the boy was still able to avoid it just by charging directly forward.

That whip-tail lunged but managed to miss the target just by a quarter of an inch, far too close.

Knowing which attack works best so far, the boy continued charging forward and then curled his tail up, allowing the barb to land a deadly blow.

Although Timmy struggled a bit to slip through, a cut stretched from one side of the stingray's belly to the other, her face also received a bit of damage.

Afterwards a shout was the inevitable, pain overwhelmed the bigger lady as she cussed. "You little ass sucker!"

Unwilling to be caught in a bad situation, Timmy busted out of the little crack he had swam into through the heat of battle.

At that same second the enemy was turning around, so the young boy managed to land a strike right near the head, which forced the lady into another shout.
