> Not only does it keep shiny things safe, it also plays music. Belongs to Alice Margatroid.
> You leave Alice's room and swim to the door at the end of the hall. You stick the key in and turn, and lo and behold, the doorknob turns. You think you'll be able to get it open now.

>Head inside.

> You open the door and enter the room.
> You nearly hit your head on the ceiling. It's slanted and short. It'd be pitch black if not for the light from the hallway--as the bioluminescent fish are here too--is enough to show you there's nothing in here. It feels claustrophobic.
> As you float, a sound catches your ear.

> You keep swimming, and almost reach the end of the hall when a loud thump resounds against the door to your right. The doorknob shudders.

I say let them bash through it, then figure out what's up. If they need a faceful of danmaku, it's to our advantage to let them wearing themselves out on the door first.

>Listen, and try to figure out what the sound is.

> You peel your ears and listen.
> A few seconds pass in silence, when all of a sudden the door bursts from its hinges and explodes into pieces. The doorknob bounces off the wall mere inches from you and goes careening into the darkness. As you are showered with splinters, a sleek silver blur flies at you in a flurry of bubbles and frothing water. It's easily the size of you, if not bigger, with a long silver tail and fins coming out from various points on its torso.
> Within seconds, it is upon you. A pair of clawed hands reach for your shoulders, ready to sink into your flesh.

> One of the fish's hands closes around your arm just as you're flailing away from it. This action causes its claws to drag down your arm, drawing blood as it loses its grip on you.
