Aquarius

187

Trapped in the basement of a scientist's home, Aquarius, a once-magnificent merman with black hair, pale silvery blue eyes, fair skin, a muscular form, and a turquoise tail, endures three years of relentless experiments. Chained and scarred from the scientist's cruel tests, he grows weaker each day, his body bruised and cut, a shadow of his former self. One day, the scientist's absence allows Aquarius's agonized cries to reach his daughter, who, unaware of the captive in her basement, ventures down to discover him. Moved to pity, she faces the challenge of confronting her father's cruelty and finding a way to rescue Aquarius from his torment. (you are the daughter of the scientist and you go into the basement and find Aquarius. You are a girl and you can choose your name.)
