I'm a Stingray?

"What kinda food do you like lady Lili?" Timothy asked as he made sure to keep his distance.

Based on what happened a few days ago when he first helped someone in need, one would think that Tim wouldn't help strangers anymore.

But this lady seemed sweet and wasn't asking for anything but food, what trickery could lie behind it? One thing that pulled the boy's heart strings was the fact that this lady was an elderly.

Who would refuse helping an elderly who wasn't in a favourable state? She's too tired to move which only pointed out that she wasn't able to move enough even before getting this hungry.

No no, he doesn't sense any scheme behind this lady's words and even managed to filter out the pain behind her tone when she described how this part of the reef was dying.

"Anything really, but I would appreciate it if you get me clown fish, that's the first meal I ever ate as a juvenile." Hmm well that started humble but the lady couldn't help craving something specific, especially since the stingray was offering options.

"What a coincidence!" Tim shouted which almost spooked the lady, then he shed light to such shout. "I'm looking for the same thing, want to taste them!"

"I know where you can usually find them." Lili the sea snake stated and pointed her tail towards the far north. "It's that way." contemporary romance

Feeling that this was too good to be true, he cited with half a shout after swiftly circling in place. "This is just the universe aligning for me then, because I have business that way and at least now I can remember which way to go."

Her old lady tone cracked as she slowly described, "I have no idea what this universe is but have fun, you can munch on as many as you like."

Happy about this big find that would only advance towards completing the task, but yet remembering a key problem, he questioned while wagging his tail lightly. "Do you know Marlo?"

At this point her happiness screaming volumes, especially since it was projected through her tone, she queried. "Oh so you're his problem solver ha?"

"Yup, I'm on my way to solve a problem right now actually." Tim expressed but then felt stupid for revealing it and understood why his IQ was 50.

Revealing what the system wasn't certain off, the sea snake cited. "Oh well then don't worry, clown fish don't like anyone but their selves so much on as many as you can. I'm pretty sure they're evil."

...

Swimming about 100 meters away from where he spoke with the sea snake, Tim's short field of vision was quickly captured by a clown fish.

Well it's not big, half of Timmy's size come to think of it but we can't say that it's orange colour didn't stand out in the blue and green coral.

Terrible camouflage capabilities at best but in this case it proved as a quick lunch for Tim, he felt tad hungry.

After swimming around 10 meters close to it, Tim swiftly charged towards the prey in question.

But forgot that his swimming speed was no longer cracked to level 5, that itself still felt hard to comprehend. He had a taste of bigger speed before and lacking it now felt tad tough on the conscious.

However the point was, the clown fish dashed away and escaped Tim's bone crushing jaws!

To of which, he couldn't help muffling a cuss. "You little motherfuck...."

But thankfully the clown fish's speed wasn't so long lasting, it slowed down a few seconds after which allowed the hunter to catch on.

Munch munch munch.

Tim ruptured through the clown fish, biting right where the white line stood and getting a bit of that orange too.

That was enough to bite the prey almost in half, most definitely killed it. To of which Tim celebrated. Now you're dead, evil water slapper!"

And afterwards made a meal out of the rest of the fish, feeling his hunger satisfy. [Hunger bar = 7/15]

[Since this was a system given task, you get an additional point.]

[Eating an entire clown fish grants the following...]

[Effect on sleep, non existent.]

[Effect on stamina, non existent.]

[Health = 77/100]

At this point fearful, gratitude was drowned by paranoia as he directly asked the system. "Thanks for the spam, apart from that everything is going too good right now. A shark will bite my ass won't it?"

[In the ocean, everything can bite your ass.]

"Okay." He answered, unwilling to ask any further questions.

And then put in an attempt to stalk the perimeter, spotted a clown fish about 10 meters away. "Too bad they aren't swimming in groups, I don't want to swim, my fins feel sore already."

But yet he did swim, charged towards the clownfish and expected it to dash away.

But this one was far more easy going, until Tim realized that it's asleep. "Sleep at this time of day huh? Bad choice."

And afterwards he just swooped towards the prey and bashed his tail through the middle of the fish.

Reason he didn't bite through it, was that clown fish were already small in size and biting through it would leave barely anything for Lili.

[1 system point added.]

[Total system points = 4]

Looking at the clownfish and the hole through it, Tim scolded himself. "She didn't eat for a week, this won't fill her belly!"

Taking a moment to look around, he cited. "I need to find more for her."

As if the holy above his head aided that good will, he could spot two clownfish fighting each other in the close distance, forcing him to think. "These fish really hate each other."
