Adele flicked her tail boredly inside her tank. While the others got to do amazing feats of strength and agility, all she got to do was swim around in her tank and sing, like a siren. If anything, she was probably one of the more expensive freaks at the show, as attested to by the constant temperature of the water, she shimmer of her scales, and by the intricate comb she would have with her while doing her act. Speaking of which-<br/><br/>"Where did my comb get to now?" she asked herself aloud before diving back into the water in search of her comb. Adele vaugely heard a backstage workman yell at her, but the thick glass and water distorted the words. That is, until he pounded on the glass. Startled, she released most of her air and swam upwards, covering her sensitive ears the entire time. That was the only bad part about having such a spacious enclosure, it took too long to swim to the top without using your arms. She collapsed onto her rock, and in return got some raw skin with blood on it.<br/><br/>"Damn fish! You almost got me all wet!" he complained, yet that was the most any of them did. Complain. It was starting to get annoying. But, then again, if she did anything against him, her comfortable life would become barely liveable. So, she just took in a deep breath and dove silently into the water to her hiding spot. The tank jostled as it traveled into the center ring.<br/><br/>The lights dimmed until there was a single ray of blue over the tank. Adele could feel the crowd hush as they wondered what was next. Bracing herself against a piece of coral, she flicked her tail at the surface of the water. The crowd collectively awed and waited some more. They didn't have to wait long.<br/><br/>With a bounding leap she sprang from the water and managed to bring her entire self out for the crowd to see. Her skin paled from being out of the water, but her skin returned to its natural tint once she nearly flopped back into her tank. The crowd applauded and she continued on with her act. She was exhausted by the time she was done, like always.
