lords of water
Jessica and the great white shark

In a another dimension on a earth a lot like this one. There are some individuals that have a power that involves water. Each one of their powers is different except each one’s power involves water. The government there has classified these people as the lords of water.
The Griffin’s a family of 9 walks on a private beach that they have rented for the week for there yearly vacation. The dad walks to the middle of the beach stabs a large umbrella in the sand then opens it. This looks like a good spot says the dad.
He turns around and looks at his daughters and says attention! His wife stands next to him. his daughter's lineup in front of him. The father says ok ladies we are on our own private beach connected to a few other people’s private beaches. So stay where I can see you don't drive the neighbors crazy and stay out of trouble now go have fun. They all say yes sir and run off in different directions except for Jessica. She starts walking to the ocean her mother walks along with her.
So what do you want to do today? Jessica stops and looks at her mom. I want to talk to a great white shark. Oh really so what do you want to say to the shark honey? Jessica response
I want to ask it what does it do in the ocean and what is its purpose. The mom has a amaze look on her face. Oh really tell me why you want to ask it that? Jessica response because my friend says they’re just killing machines that are bad so I want to prove her wrong. OK honey how do you plan to talk to the shark.
The dad walks up behind the mom and grabs her by the waist picks her up and says. With concentration imagination and the discovery channel. The mom laughs as the dad spins her around. Isn’t that right, Jessica? She responds yeah something like that. The mom says oh ok well have fun with your imaginary shark. The dad lets the mom go and says you’re not getting away with not helping me set up our little beach camp. The mom says ok ok I’m coming. The dad says Jessica just stay where I can see you and have fun. Jessica says ok and begins to walk towards the ocean.
The mom and the dad walk to the umbrella. The mom says I’m starting to worry about her. I don’t know if she understands what’s the difference between what’s real or imaginary. Do you think she really believes that she can talk to fish by touching the water? The dad says she’s fine she’s a lot like me at that age she has a deep mind and she’s very creative. When I was at that age I had a very active and deep imagination. I drove my parents insane like she’s doing with you. Do you think she’s doing this on purpose to drive me insane then? No, It’s not intentional she’s just like me we see the world differently. The mom responds jokingly now I’m really worried. She starts to run the dad runs after her.
Jessica begins to walk where the wet sand is. She begins to see yellow outlines of things in the water and animals under the sand. She walks into the ocean and sits down. In a spot where the waves aren’t too bad and the water is only as deep as up to her waist, she crosses her legs and puts her hand into the water. She takes a deep breath and closes her eyes and concentrates. All the water that’s around her begins to standstill up to a mile from her. The waves stop moving and become as smooth as glass. Then all the water that became smooth begins to vibrate violently. The area of water that is vibrating quickly gets smaller and concentrates it’s self to under Jessica‘s hand. Then the vibration shoots from her hand into the ocean like a beam of vibration.
Her mind travels along with the vibration through the ocean. She looks at the different sea life as her mine passes through the ocean. Then she sees a great white shark the vibration quickly turns and goes to the shark and grabs its mind. Then for a moment Jessica and the shark lose consciousness. They both wake up in a strange place. The place they wake up Into is a mental space that Jessica created. It’s designed in a way where it’s on the land but also under the ocean. The shark transforms into a humanoid shark.
The shark drops to its knees and grabs its head in pain then it stops and gets up and looks at Jessica. What am I, what are you, where am I, what has happened to me? Jessica response. Oh, we’re in a mental space that I created when I made contact with your mind. We are in an instant in time right now So we can talk. The shark responds I don’t understand please tell me what am I and what are you. Oh, I’m sorry your mind hasn’t fully adapted yet. I am a human my name is Jessica and I am 7 1/2 years old. OK, what am I? You are a great white shark that I, transformed in this mental space so we can talk.
The shark looks at his hands then looks at Jessica and asks what are these? Those are hands you can use then to pick things up or to help you do things. What kind of things? Well, my dad uses his hands to build things. My mom uses her hands to cook and clean and sometimes throws things at my dad. What do you use your hands for? Mostly homework and video games. OK, what is a video game? Oh, it’s a type of game that we play on a digital device. Oh can you teach me how to play with it do you use your hands?
Yes, you use your hands. Maybe one day I can teach you but for now, I have some questions I need to ask you. OK, what do you want to know? What is your purpose and what do you do? I don’t understand what purpose means but what I do is swim and eat and mate. The shark quickly puts his hands on his head again and screams in pain. Jessica asks with concern are you ok? The shark takes his hands off his head and says. Yes I’m fine the pain from my mind-expanding is severe but I can handle it.
Jessica responds I’m sorry about that it’s a part of your transformation to imprint the human mind into your mind with human knowledge so we can communicate. I understand so you were asking me what my purpose was correct. Jessica responds yes. The shark says it’s hard to explain something I do not fully understand myself but the best I can tell you is. I quietly glide through the dark depths of the ocean seeking who or what I can consume.
If I had to guess my purpose for doing that. I would have to say is sea life management. Many things in the ocean rapidly reproduce if it wasn’t for things like me they would overpopulate consume everything then die out. I see is there anything special about you besides your eating habits? I have a friend that is an octopus. Really you have friends? Yes, I guess that’s what you could call it. We kind of mutually benefit each other so I guess you could call that a friendship.
Ok is there anything you’re afraid of? Yes, there are two things dolphins and killer whales. Really why? They’re both dangerous dolphins can move faster than me and they attack me in a group. Killer whales will kill me for fun then eat my liver. They are the alpha predators in the ocean. Wow I, didn’t think sharks were afraid of anything. We don’t have a lot to be afraid of once we get big enough. Until we get big enough every predator is dangerous to us.
Really that’s not something I expected from a predator as large as you. Well, we don’t start this size we have to grow into it. Yeah that makes sense. So tell me do you have a wife. I don’t understand what a wife is. It’s a female that is committed to you only for the rest of her life to make baby’s and be with you forever. We don’t do that we go to a place once a year and mate after that the females leave.
I can’t speak for other sharks but great whites are solitary animals we don’t share our hunting grounds for any reason. Wow, I didn’t know that. Can you tell me about humans? of course, what do you want to know? Do all of you have bodies like this with hands and feet. Yes, we do all humans have hands and, feet. Are there many of you? Yes, almost 8 billion people exist. What are you afraid of? That’s a very good question I would have to say other people and some dangerous animals. What is your purpose what do you do as a human?
Jessica puts her hand to her chin and thinks about it she looks at the shark and says. I don’t know my dad told me a human’s purpose is to take dominion over the earth and every individual human has a special purpose just for them. The shark tilts his head and says really that interesting humans have different purposes for existing than each other but sharks like me all share the same function and purpose. The shark grabs his head and steps forward to catching himself then he shakes his Head Jessica asks are you ok.
The shark says yes I’m fine my mind-expanding isn’t as painful as it was. oh good is there anything else you’d like to know about humans? Not really I’m still quite amazed that every human from what you’re telling me is different and special. I am slightly envious. What else would you like to know about me and my kind? I would like to know about your friend the octopus. Ok, when she is nesting fish will try and attack her eggs so I eat the fish when there not paying attention. I see what you mean by a mutually beneficial relationship now. Yes, it is I get to eat fish and she gets to take care of her eggs.
So is there anything else that you are afraid of? There is one thing but I don’t know if it’s something to be afraid of but it feels dangerous. What is it? Offhand I don’t know all I know is it’s in schools of tuna. All of a sudden the mental space begins to shake violently a golden tuna appears and transforms into a muscular humanoid female tuna. The tuna runs to the shark preparing to punch him. The tuna shouts die shark. Then she grabs her head and falls to the ground. The shark says that’s it that’s the thing that I was telling you about. The tuna quickly gets up to its feet.
It looks at Jessica and starts running towards her the tuna jumps up cocks her shoulder back to punch Jessica. She closes her eyes and put her arms up crossing them over her face to block the punch. As she brace herself for the punch. She hears a familiar voice. This is why I always say stay where I can see you. She opens her eyes and her dad is standing in front of her holding the fist of the tuna. Jessica’s dad looks at the tuna and says it’s time for you to disappear. The tuna steps back and tries to punch him. He deflects the tuna attack then slaps the tuna with the back of his hand the tuna flies outside of the mental space and disappears. The dad turns to Jessica and says we have some things to discuss. Jessica says yes we do.
