I'm a Stingray?

Chapter 310: A new journey awaits

A few weeks ago, this same tool from another universe, managed to super-charge her senses and provide a layer of green light around her body.

That same light had made her immune to radioactive shields, at least that's what she guessed a moment ago.

With powers like that considered, just what could this weird crystal give next?

Thoughts of such a pace would weigh down geniuses, not to mention anyone with a lower intelligence; so she just decided to stop thinking, and simply swam closer towards the same crystal shard.

This shard was bigger in comparison to the past one, it stretched half a foot wide to be exact; a size like this, managed to make the lady even more nervous.

Regardless, she just approached closer and finally touched the gem with one of her fin-bones.

Within a blink of an eye, the gem rattled a little bit and then shot upwards with grand speed.

After looking at such a pace, one would think that the item would eventually break the water's surface, and head for the sky.

But regardless of what one would predict, this other-worldly shard acted as if upon will.

After a short moment, the item had taken a sharp turn to the left and simply beamed towards that same direction, before it completely disappeared beneath the sea-waters.

As for the lady in question, well, she was embracing quite some changes. No one understood how exactly those weird gems worked, but they surely deliver an impact!

A prime example was, that large rays of light suddenly generated around Dana. This illumination appeared, even though the gem was long gone by now!

The scene developed quite high in intensity, that was for sure. Especially since the illumination that expanded around the skeleton-lady, was intense enough to force everyone's eyes shut!

It was impossible for them to keep their eyes open, so of course, it wasn't easy to witness what was going on.

This grand light continued to make itself present for a few seconds more, but then it disappeared even quicker.

As the whole team tried to tame the stinging pain in their eyes, they eventually got the opportunity to witness just what changes their dear friend had encountered.

And it was fair to say that the scene proved itself as astounding. Simply because a prime portion of identity that this fine lady carried before, was no longer visible.

In other words, it would be weird to consider her a skeleton at the moment; as such a portion of her characteristics could not be caught by the naked eye anymore.

There was an ever-glowing layer of light all around her. This light had transformed into a more solid, and unclear version. In other words it behaved a lot like skin.

The only difference from a normal animal was that this fake skin, carried a dark-green colour; most definitely unusual.

But the whole thing seemed highly befitting for a lady of her kind. And it was easy to notice that this light bended around in every direction, just to create an accurate mimicry of an eagle-ray body.

This fine illumination has surrounded her entire skeleton, and would surely provide quite a lot of protection as well.

However. Dana has gotten the opportunity to speak now, as the rest of her friends were simply stumped for words; such a scene wasn't easy to comprehend.

And the first thing she wanted to mention, carried a bit of beauty between it.

"Guys! I can see again!" She celebrated.

A bit sceptical, the geezer questioned. "Couldn't you see before?"

"I could, but everything looked green and blurry ever since I lost my skin..." She was quick to specify, and pondered her own words in those few moments.

Which was why she was able to weigh in, "Now everything still looks green, but I can see all of you clearly; maybe even better than before I got turned into a skeleton!"

As joy and morale continued to grow within the group, Timothy was the first to approach the lady; and he found it appropriate to bash himself against her fake skin.

And it proved to be a great idea as well. Because his friend enjoyed the gesture, and there weren't any bones who poked him in the process either.

She returned the gesture until they almost began cuddling, it was easy to figure out that the nyon-lady enjoyed this closeness more than the other.

And they were alone for a little while too, until Osira bashed into them in order to embrace the same joy ~ but the fine black-grouper was bigger and more powerful, so she flung the couple of friends a few feet away.

Regardless of such a motion, joy was evident between the group and laughter broke out.

Gerlach wanted to join the snuggles, but he feared that these sizes and powers just don't match with each other, so it could turn disastrous.

Instead, he just clung on a little harder to the black-grouper who was carrying him; to represent his own method of hugging.

And after the cumulative joy took a bit of time to balance itself, the group was given the opportunity to think just a little bit more clearly.

And therefore, they were swift to decide that the best idea now, was to head back home to the coral-reef where they have all met and partnered.

It was a good idea to do so for various reasons. Apart from having the blessing of seeing old friends and family again, they could reap information there.

Dead stone's path was yet to be found, so any bit of help could be great.

And besides, every enemy that this current area had to offer, had been slaughtered off ~ so there truly wasn't a reason to stay in this environment.

No no, they could simply head back home and handle a new journey.

As for Timmy. These couple of days have helped him realise, that these friends weren't just useful in terms of aiding in battle.

When he got those fin-bones severely broken, every member of the team had used their own method of showing either care, stress, or sympathy.

With friends who were capable of such emotions, he felt a bit more safe. Because regardless of just how bizarre the situation could become, these friends didn't have cowardice in their name; his soul and body could depend on them thoroughly.
