Once I was sure the entire population of humans from the boat were in the water, I decided I should probably apologize to the disgruntled halfers. I grabbed any halfers stragglers and flung them to shore. I became human and swam over to shore where they had accumulated. Hair soaked, shoeless, and dripping, I spoke to the entire group.
Everybody stared at me while I came to speak. Some threw harsh words. But they didn't understand that this was for their own good. Not only were they trying to find harmony, but those sailors were trying to destroy it!
"My name is Shiori Larks. I destroyed that boat to save you all. The secret of harmony was hidden there. Those humans were playing dumb. They knew what you were and were planning to kill you all."
Some laughed, others looked skeptical. One girl got up to speak. (*Io)
"I understand yor reasons but was that show really necessary? I really how many of us don't know how to swim or preefer not to? We are not children! We could have fended for ourselves!" A chorus of agreement rose around her.
"What gives you the right to endanger the secret of every half-breed out there!? I did this to protect you!" I expected some harsh feelings.
She sighed and seemed to be trying to control her anger and feelings of saddness. "Some of those humans were killed!" she shouted. "Doesn't this world have enough sorrow and death already? can't we just live in peace? Why can't we just create our own harmony!?" tears welled up in her eyes. "When you've seen the evils of this world for almost 400 years, you come and talk to me and tell me you'd do that over again!"
Another woman stood up and t her arm around the long haired woman. She seemed to say some words of comfort and then she led her away. So what had happened to her? Oh well it wasn't my problem.
