You look at the multiple paths which lead to the different “merpeople experience.”
Thinking that the experience was nothing more then a meet and greet with either a mermaid or merman, or merchild. The merchild must be for little kids to meet a kid their own age.
You are not a child, so that limits your choices to between mermaid and merman, being a young adult man who had just finished his first year at university the idea of meeting a mermaid was much more temping then meeting a merman.
So, you head down the path toward the mermaid path.
The path reached another point and branched out this one based on age, not wanting to spend time with 80-year-old mermaids or younger mermaids.
So, you head down the path toward the college age mermaids.
Reaching the end the path you come to a room with multiple lockers, an employee standing at a podium and behind her a couple of feet was a crashing waterfall. Somehow the waterfall didn’t make any noise as the worker looked up at you
“Welcome to mermaid grotto.” Said the worker “Please put your items in a locker and put on one of the swimsuits provided and come forward to sign the paperwork.”
“This must be some kind of experience.” You say as you head to the lockers and spot a line of simple white swimsuits mostly women’s but a few swim trunks. The suits where sealed in plastic bags and when you opened it, you could tell it was fresh from the factory.
The idea of swimming with beautiful mermaids was more then enough to cause you to rush as you put your items in the locker.
“Alright, take a moment to read over the sign.” Said the worker handing over a computer pad, with some text on it. You skimmed it, not really caring, the idea of beautiful sexy mermaids filling your mind as you sign the paperwork without much of a care.
“Alright, step through the waterfall and enjoy your time.” Stated the worker as you took a step toward the waterfall. You step behind the worker and instantly heard the roar of water.
Taking a breath you step into the water, the water pounding you for a moment before heading out of the water. You where soaked but before you was a breathtaking grotto, the sunlight passing through the massive waterfall which lead out to the pool you saw as you walked into the mountain.
There where multiple pools, both large and small with mermaids and merman of all different ages swimming around and enjoying their time. They came in different tail colors and the like, but you didn’t see any people.
Right before you was a good size pool of water, which was likely connected underground to the main pool but sitting there talking where five beautiful mermaids all about your age.
“Hello.” Said you as they turned and noticed you.
“Hi there…you’re a newcomer?” said one of the mermaids in a hyper voice
“Yes.” You confirm
“We don’t that many men coming this way, so welcome.” Said a slightly older mermaid who seamed to channel a goth.
“I don’t see why not.” You answer, “What guy wouldn’t want to swim with ladies as beautiful as you all.”
All the mermaids shared a look.
“Oh…he is one of those.” Said a taller mermaid if you could say that. Her tail seamed longer than the others.
“This will be fun to watch.” Added a very busty mermaid
“What?” you asked confused
“You passed through the mermaid experience waterfall.” Said the taller mermaid
“Yes, I want to swim with mermaids not merman.” You add slightly confused
“It doesn’t work like that; you are about to experience being a mermaid.” Stated the busty mermaid
“What?” you inquired your voice sounding slightly different.
“You are about to transform into a mermaid.” answered the taller one.
“You are going to swim with mermaids because you will be one.” Added the goth as the mermaids all turned to watch what happens next.
