I looked at Joel and said "You are upset because you are going to become female?" I was trying to make sure I understood. "Jabulon cheated. He threw sand in my eyes. The coward!" Joel shouted. His tail slapped the water again, spraying water all over the place. Jared sighed and said "The fights are brutal. There are no rules. You must fight with all your male passion. There is no such thing as cheating, Jabulon was simply more determined and vicious that Joel was." Joel was glaring at the ground so hard; I wondered if a hole would soon appear. I said "So you guys will pair up before you look for humans, then. Do you know who will be fucking who?" Jared nodded his head. "I will be taking Jethro. Joel will be taken by Jeremy. Jesse will be taking Jude." he said. I looked at Jethro and Jude. "Are you okay with becoming female!? It seems that Joel really hates it." They both looked sad. Jude said "I... lost to Jared in our battle. It is now my duty to support the tribe by laying eggs and caring for all the guppies." Jethro said "It is not what I would have chosen, but I will soon be made to fit my role.
Doing things for the tribe's benefit was seen as honorable. However, being changed against your will would probably come with lifelong consequences and regrets. I just looked at Joel again. "When you have your first time, does it have to be with another tribe member to change you!?" I asked him. He frowned and said "No. There are some instances when members of other tribes will raid us and steal a guppy only to breed them and dump their corpses in our territory once they got the eggs." "That's why our warriors have to be so strong. To prevent that from happening to our future offspring." Jeremy added pointedly. Joel's face went red. He was shamed once again for losing his battle. I said "Joel. I feel really sad for you. If you could trust me, could I help you? I don't want something like that to happen to you if you did not want it." It made the whole cove go silent. He scoffed out loud and gave me a dismissive look. He said "Unless you are of that foul witch's blood, you can't remove the curse of my tribe from me." I walked up to him slowly and said "Can you trust me a little bit? I want to help."
His eyes narrowed as he searched my face. He groaned. "Fine! Do whatever you want. Stupid humans do whatever they want after all." Joel then pulled me down by the shirt. "Just know this: if you can't help me, I will personally drown you here. And I won't let you convert into one of us!" he hissed. I nodded. He rolled his eyes and looked off into the distance. "C'mon. Do what it was that you wanted. I'm waiting." he snapped. I bent down and wrapped my arms under his and lifted with my legs. I was able to drag him out of the water until his whole body was on the rocky ground. "Idiot! Now I'm going to dry out! You better do this soon." he chastised. He was annoyed with me already. I took off my clothes and tossed them to the side. I straddled him and laid forward with my dick in his face and with my face near his groin. "What are you doing!?" Jared demanded. I could see all the other 5 mermen looking concerned and angry at me. I ignored them. I used both of my hands to rub and massage where I assumed his dick would be. After a few minutes, I could feel a lump under the scales and muscle.
