Sam had never heard of an ocean kelpie, but certainly coastal cultures all over the world had kelpie-based myths and lore. Who was to say there weren't ocean ones to? The analytic part of his brain wondered about the potential link between kelpies and siren myths, but he urgently pushed that aside to remember how to kill them ( ... )

She was back in a flash, and he instructed her to first flush his wounds with fresh water. He didn't tell her it was actually holy water, of course. Then she gently applied antibiotic ointment, butterfly strips, and taped gauze over that.

“I think some of those might need stitches,” she said worriedly. “We really should see a doctor.”

“I'll look at it when we get back.” He snorted. “What do we tell the doctor, we had a fight with something that turned into a jellyfish?”

She rocked back to sit cross-legged. “Sam...what was that? I've never...I mean, it...” Her voice quavered. “And how did you know what to do?” Her eyes were huge in her pale face.

Sam slowly sat up. He'd tape his ribs up at home, and he'd take some painkillers then too. The next couple of days were not going to be fun. And that didn't even count telling Jess about his world.

“Jess...let's get home, okay? And then...well, we have a lot to talk about.”

Jess in this is simply wonderful, a fighter, a smartass. I always think of her that way, you know? Real menace in the water, out of our depth, scary. Love.

You really nailed this prompt!!! I loved how you had Sam slowly accept the normal life by swimming, only then to introduce the kelpie - reminding him, that maybe he can never escape his old life. And I loved Jess; she was strong and capable, and a fighter when it came to helping Sam.

Tank you for for sharing :)
