The mermaid swam through the salty waters of the ocean at a rapid pace. Her friends Red and Waves would join up with her later, but for now she had a desire to venture to the surface and sunbathe on the shore. Just revel in the rays that glowing ball of light could shed.
Turquoise finally emerged from the water with a large splash! that went everywhere as she surfaced, teal-colored hair dripping wet, looking for all the world a normal human from the waist up. That is, except for her teal-green hair and blue skin. The two white starfish were the only cover over her breasts. She was a mermaid, she had no need for clothes!
Sitting on a nearby rock, she idly began brushing her hair with a small comb she had acquired on her underwater travels. It was a white smooth comb, with only one tiny broken part but was still in good condition otherwise. She ran the comb through her tresses and then placed it down on the ground next to her, before lying down on her back to soak up the sun. Closing her eyes, she began to relax and feel very much at peace. Nothing could disturb this moment. It was beautiful.
