SCREAMS EXTREMELY LOUDLY
NNIIIIIICCCCCOOOOOOO

Go fas-ter. Go fas-ter. The dull three-beat thudding of his paws on the dusty dark earth drowned out his sister's words, but he had such a deep connection with her that he instinctively knew what she was saying.
"We have to run faster."
She was echoing what the throbs of his footsteps were telling him. Go fas-ter. Go fas-ter. He was panting faster than he had thought possible, blood roaring in his ears, spiking every time his heart pounded; which is to say nearly constantly. He felt that he had gone beyond the limits of his body: that he was drawing now upon strengths not his own, for were it him sprinting, he knew he'd have collapsed long ago.
We have to escape...
"Bianca!" he shouted, then stumbled, shocked by the sudden loss of air to his lungs. She may not have heard his choked cry, but as soon as he began to fall she swerved back and stood over him, black sides heaving as her dark blue-gray eyes glared at the darkness from which their pursuers would emerge.
"Bianca," Nico gasped again, as soon as he had recovered enough breath to talk again. "We can't run anymore...We have to....have to find another way. Another way to escape...them..."
His sister tilted her head, and he saw the curiosity and the logical appeal spark in her gaze. "You're right..." she breathed after a moment, then shook her head. "You're right, but it's not possible."
"Of course it is!" Nico insisted stubbornly, steel-blue eyes flashing with defiance. "We can do it! We'll....we'll climb a tree or something!"
"Don't be ridiculous," Bianca shot back. "We could climb a tree, but they could uproot it before-"

►Tell me his personality through a STORY; in a dark forest with only the sound of screeching bats was a small kiamara in the shade gasping for breath, for this kiamara had been born only this morning. seeing as she had given birth to a runt his mom had fled and let the poor boy die. slowly he took a small movement forward crawling to the water, most kiamaras his age would drown. slowly he fell in the water and took a shuddering breath before being engulfed my a wave. his breath came in short stabs as he tried to breath. water filled his lungs and a rare effect happened. the boy didn't die but fall into a sort of coma and hit the bottom of the sea. his body lay harmless while he breathed in and out sea water, rarely moving a paw.
15 years later..
a teenager was coming out of the water after some time. his gills flapped in the wind. he couldn't remember anything, sometimes when he was asleep though he dreamed about drowning in a sulky forest. he smiled to himself. he just had the best relaxing swim, nico a teenager with the ability to breath underwater as well as land had just had a wonderful swim. he just decided he might as well go for another one because he felt so relaxed when he saw something stirring in the water, another kiamara! what luck! though not such good luck, i mean everyone thought him a freak. his heart dropped as she swam away, he dove in and started to catch up, the girl giggled and sped up. she had patterns like coral. then the bomb struck she noticed his gills. must kiamaras scream and run but she just looked at him curiously and went up for air, of course he didn't need to but joined her anyway. she looked at him and smiled "your.." she pondered for a moment than found what she was looking for "unique" she said with a smile. "more like a curse" he said gruffly "everyone runs away screaming and i can't help it" he said in even for gruff tones. " it isn't a curse if you enjoy it, you do don't you?" she said with a curious expression clearly wanting to know more. "i enjoy it but i have to sacrifice. i had to move out here" he pointed to the old forest looking just as gloomy as the past day. "it isn't so bad.. is it?" she asked and nico could hear the pity in her voice. "don't start feeling bad for me.." he said gruffly refusing to look at her. this is what he hated, those good girls who love everything and have so much hope. " i.." she tried to say but got cut off by a gun shot " oh crap" he murmured and dove under the water. slowly the girl followed and nico was astounded to hear her speak under water." what is going on?" she muttered seeming less keen to be seen. "there are some hunters, kiamara hunters and they hate me for what i am. every day they come with their guns and try to kill me, I'm not safe here any more." he said with a more scared than gruff tone. " my name is deep blue.. and i have come to you for something" she said her voice changing from curious to urgent. she slowly lifted her hair away from her cheeks and nico almost choked to see gills. "i have been searching for another me, because i haven't been safe either, what's your name?" she asked and nico responded with a slight shaking in his voice "nico." "Nico is a good name, now we should go shouldn't we?" she said and sped off towards empty sea. Nico was filled with questions "what the heck is going on!?!? why don't they like us!?!?" he asked bombarding her with questions as they swam through. "well, we are hated because normal kiamaras think we are against them and we are being attacked by all of kiamaras military ships and any other people off the street who hate us." she said in a hurt voice. Nico could tell she hated having to run and understood her feeling of misplace and abnormality. "i have tried to escape it.. but everyone hates me, i mean us" she whispered close to tears. "oh don't start crying" he said in his annoyed and disgusted voice. she just looked hurt. they swam on with the occasional small bomb coming in for them to hide from and ships were everywhere. Nico tried to convince himself it was a dream but knew it would be impossible. They continued for a while, the bombs were falling more rapid than ever. a bomb struck and hit deep blue before he could blink. blood started to spread through the water in wispy swirls. he looked stunned. he saw that her arm had one bloody cut all the way down. she seemed to be unable to speak and seemed to have fainted. his heart stopped as he tried to think of what in the world he would do. as if deciding he picked her up and ripped some sea weed from the sand and put it on her. he let out one tear than took her carefully onto his back and kept going. he knew he had to keep going but deep blue didn't look her best and he was afraid she would get hit again. the bombs continued and a look of death and destruction took over the lovely sea. Nico found a cave to hide in and settled deep blue down. though he had only met her today he felt like he loved her. the sounds of the ships seemed more distant as though they had gave in. by this time deep blue had opened her eyes. she gasped at Nico and looked around "what happened!?!?" she said in worried tones. Nico took a deep breath and spilled out everything that had happened "you hurt your arm, a bomb skimmed your arm and the ships are looking for us, i took you to this cave and I'm not sure you should come..." but he was cut off by her approaching him and slowly they kissed. he felt as if a weight had just been removed from his shoulders. his soul which had been covered in a rainy cloud seemed have changed. the rainy cloud wasn't a rainy cloud but a rainbow. he smiled feeling extreme happiness seep through him.he knew what to do. he told deep blue something she could never forget " deep blue i may have only met you today, it was all so crazy but i know one thing. i love you" and he left. swimming away to the boats. he went above surface and gasped as he switched to breathing air. all of the ships yelled "fire!" but Nico yelled "stop!" they stopped and stared. " Everyone. you think us freaks, monsters and think we are a danger, but what have we done to you? we don't deserve to die, we haven't hurt anyone." he yelled and he heard over a microphone "you have a point, very well cease fire!" he commanded. Nico was pretty sure "he" was the captain "thank you, you will leave us alone?" "no" replied the commander "you can live, but you must serve the government for the payment of keeping you alive" he said. Nico looked at him and smiled "a scientist eh? well sure.".
Epilogue:
Professor Angelo looked at professor blue (deep blue) and smiled and gave her a hand jester to begin. she started to speak to the older humans talking about the science of the cuddle fish and Professor Angelo pitched in "after much research and help from our gills we have a fact to reveal. Cuddle fish, on to say a fish never seen by Kiamara kind has been discovered. this fish can replicate any pattern it wants" kiamaras gasped and he smiled pointing to a tank. the cuddle fish turned a magenta pattern. he smiled at deep blue and continued "which is why we came to you, to help fund us on the research of this new fish!" everyone cheered and he bowed along with deep blue and looked at her with a happy expression. why yes, this is, Love.

The silence settled over the group hovering on the long, crooked dock. It was such a dismal grey day, a wonder it wasn’t raining. Even so, there were enough pooled tears to make up for the lack of precipitation. Ripples scattered all around the puddles, fingers clutching the rails, wails reverberated over the water, and sadness loomed over the group. As the water swished below them, someone’s voice started up, sending off a fare-well to the sky. It was a funeral, for a beauty missing a soul. Standing on the edge of the crowd, a tall dark male was staring at the water. He hadn’t spoken a word since he’d arrived, hadn’t moved an inch, and hadn’t cried yet. His eyes focused on the water below, his mind full of mass hysteria and chaos, darted around as if they were trying to catch the unnerved thoughts and hold one tight as they could. Around him, the group finished and slowly walked off, only two or three remaining. Those who passed him wished him luck and recovery; those who stayed barely gave him a passing glance.

“They say he did it. Killed her like that. She didn’t have many others close to her, they’re both very secluded and anti-social.” The small cluster whispered to each other. The chaos cleared the second he heard them, his eyes stopping dead in their tracks to wander over to the company the remained. He straightened up and walked over to them, in which they cowered and hurried away. Keeping on his set path, he walked over to the place the ceremony was being held and stopped calmly. Now that he was alone, it all fell apart. Droplets of salt water formed and fell from his deeply regretful blue eyes, his long fingers reaching up to clutch the bird skull he kept as a necklace, his head falling slightly. Crying silently, he felt like his mind was ripping, it hurt so much. Finally, his voice rang out, low and alluring even as it cracked and tore as much as his head and heart were.

“Bianca… I’m sorry. It’s my fault isn’t it? I’m the reason you’re gone. I didn’t mean it, I didn’t. I… I don’t even know what happened. Please, please forgive me, I never meant it if I did do it.” He mourned, trembling. “They’ve been telling me, since the day you disappeared, it was all my fault. That I killed you, murdered you, removed you.. but I didn’t right? I just want to know the truth.”

He closed his eyes, letting the tears run down his face. He loved her, protected her, needed her, and she was gone and it was his fault? He tried to piece it together, he has for the past two months, but nothing fit. Sighing, he sunk down and sat against the rocking rails, tears tumbling to the wooden ground. It only lasted for a couple more minutes, his tears abruptly stopping and his rage boiling. How dare they accuse him when he knew he didn't do it and could never brought himself to it in the first place! He was an idiot to think he'd done it.

Getting to his feet, he sauntered to the grassy area the dock branched off from, the cluster that accused him still hovering and chattering. He walked over to them, his eyes burning.

"How dare you accuse me of hurting her. I would never kill my sister! She's a million times more important to this world you are, that's for sure! I was you to apologize. Not to me, to her, for insulting her good name and opinions and trust in me, her brother." He spat the venomous words at them, and they coward from his abrupt, and seemingly planned, mood swing.

They yelped and quickly rushed out streams and lines of apologies, begging him not to hurt them. Unlike him, they knew he was violent, knew he was unpredictable, knew he was borderline. They escaped the second he started to relax and calm.

Watching them go, Nico turned and returned to his place on the dock, sighing. "Oh Bianca, I am sorry. I really really am." He whispered and leaned on the rail, closing his eyes. He fell asleep, dreaming about his sister forgiving him for any mistakes he'd ever made, knowing or unknowing.
