Immediately, Johnny felt a sudden uncontrollable urge to dive into the ocean.
"You know," Johnny said, "I have a sudden and incredible urge to dive into the ocean!"
"So do I, dad!" Ryan said.
Wasting no time, both father & son dove into the ocean.
Almost immediately, they found they were breathing underwater.
"Wow, Dad!" Ryan said, "We're actually breathing underwater!"
"We are!" Johnny said.
Suddenly, Ryan gaped upon seeing something strange happening to his father.
"Dad, your legs!" he said.
"What about my-" Johnny stopped dead when he saw his legs - they seemed to be sticking together, and he could no longer seperate them.
And when Ryan looked down, he saw his legs were sticking together, like his dad's.
"Dad!" Ryan said, "we must be turning into fish!"
"Actually," Johnny said, witnessing his shorts disappearing, and on his joined legs, there grew bright blue scales, and seeing his bare feet fusing into a tailfin, "We're turning into merpeople!"
"Merpeople?" Ryan said, amazed. "I thought merfolk weren't real!"
By this time, Ryan saw his shorts vanishing, and on his legs, there grew scales similar to his dad's, but iin a dark green color.
Ryan's bare feet fused into a tailfin on the end.
Within seconds, Johnny Fishernon and his son, Ryan, had became 100% bonafide merfolk!
Ryan's hair had turned from blackish-brown to seaweedy green.
And Johnny's hair, beard and all, had turned from chestnut brown to seaweedy green, like Ryan's. But, his hair seemed to have doubled in length, flowing down over his shoulders, which seemed more broader than normal. Even his chest looked more muscular than usual.
Ryan saw how muscular his dad's chest was now. "Wow!" he said in awe. "You look so handsome, Dad."
"I know." Johnny said, complimenting his new appearance.
