Out in the middle of the ocean on a little rock there lived a small colony of mermaids. Amongst them lived Amber. Amber was growing tired of the mermaid life. All that lying around on rocks looking seductive waiting for passing ships was boring. The rock had not been passed by a ship by months. She was sick of having to dive to the bottom of the ocean for plankton to eat. Plankton just wasnt to her taste, It wasnt very filling and didnt really taste of anything.
This is why Amber turned to cannibalism. A drastic course of action undoubtedly but she thought it was justified.
Amber decided to eat her arch enemy Victoria first. She had always hated her since mermaid school where Victoria had been top of the class and made everyone know it. Amber hit her over the head with a rock. Eight times.
Then came the question of what to eat first. The tail looked tempting. That slimey green flesh just looked lovely. Amber decided to save the best for last however and started with some arm. Mmmmm chicken she thought as she bit down on it. How a mermaid on a rock in the middle of the ocean knew what chicken tastes like is hard to know but thats what she thought.
Next she had both ears and some belly. The heart was particularly chewy. Amber didnt like that bit.
Eventually Amber was left with nothing but a slivery green tail left to eat. She was feeling quite bloated at this point but the thrill of eating something other than plankton had taken her over at this point so she carried on eating until the whole body was gone.
Now she had commited her crime and concealed the evidence Amber didn't quite know what to do. In the end she thought she had best go for a long swim. Work off some calories and get away from the crime scene at the same time.
So she dived into the ocean and promptly sank. Amber found herself too heavy to swim back up to surface and pretty soon she had drowned.
And the moral of this story is : "Never forget to wait a couple of hours after eating before going swimming."
The End.
