As your friend pulls you from the sea, you notice a man with a big net coming up behind her. You recognize him at Mr. Ito from the Sushi Bar up the coast. He grins wickedly as he throws his net.
"Look out!" you shout.
You friend turns and falls on her own tail as her legs shrink back and flail helplessly like a baby's legs as they are reabsorbed into her rapidly changing body.
"Looks like mermaid's on the menu tonight after all," chortles the sushi chef.
