Finally, after days of hard work looking for materials and some tools around the Jungle, Ángel was ready to finish the only thing that was on his mind for the last 3 weeks, a boat. He doesn't remember much of how he end up in this place, but he was for sure ready to leave as soon as possible! He luckily didn't encounter many creatures around, just some animals and a few humans, but they didn't show much interest in to return to the civilization as much as him, and even pretend to make him stay with them!
"Just one more day" he said, proudly looking at the improvised boat he made, "I just need to find some food, and tomorrow morning I will be free!" He turned around and prepare to leave the coast to his "hideout", a small cave near the beach, to prepare all he need to his journey.

Little did Àngel know, his "hideout" near the beach where i found his safe spot for all this days is actually a deep tunnel that leads to an entrance, and if he just went exploring there, the young man can find a beautiful big pool in a cave, in there, inside and outside in the walls and in the clear and warm water are shiny big and small gems and crystal of all colours and dimensions keeping the cave illuminated, even the small types of fish inside the water pool are shining, and this is the only home of a rare species of Triton, an Octomerwhich goes by the human name of Hector, his tribe name is unpronounceable with the human speech so i don't even try to pronounce it.
The Octomer if you don't know, is a specific Triton that as a human bodu except of his legs, in their place there are long beautiful tentacles of an octopus, that's the reason of his name. At the moment the hot creature is swimming in the water, hearing some rumours and also human voices on one of his surface entrances, which he didn't mind unless the one that is making the noises enters his home.
Feeling relaxed and happy, he start to sing a slow but enchanting melody, but he doesn't know that the eco of his voice can arrive to the entrances, which also means, it can reach whoever is in there, in this case, Àngel

Despite his young age, he was highly skilled and well-built. Those days on the island were hard for him, trying to survive and looking for food was something he was not used to. But he made it, and he was proud of himself.
"Yeah, tonight will be the last night I'll sleep in that cave!" he said, celebrating his hard work by eating some fruit he found in his way to his base.
And as he took the first steps into the cave, he heard a resounding melody coming from inside of it.
"Hm? What's that?" he said surprised.
The melody was so soft that he could barely hear it. He put down the stuff he brought from the beach and went to find the source of the sound. At first, he tried to be quiet and walk slowly, but with every step, the sound grew louder, and unknowingly, Angel's desire to find the source of the sound increased.

The male Octomer continues to sing, unaware of the human that's coming towards him and his home, the fishes around as he calmly goes to sit on a rock continuing his beautiful melody, the song is in his language, so i can't really tell what he's singing.
Talking about his appearance, he was very big and muscular, for sure much more than Àngel, he looks much more like a boxer even though he didn't need to do anything much. He's skin matchs his tentacles, going with a darker purple, and his hair are dark blue very long kept up by a pony tail, his eyes are silver and i has a little bear forming on his face, he has long pointy hears, but i guess you read his description so i won't prolog myself.
The Octomer is still unaware, probably because of his singing, and he's giving his back to the entrance so he can't even see if someone is coming in

Approaching the depths of the cave made Angel's thoughts fade, only focusing on the mystical melody. The labyrinth of tunnels did not stop him, who was absorbed in his march. When he reached the deepest part of the cave, he couldn't believe his eyes. A sparkling pool of crystal clear waters, filled with a large number of gems that illuminate and make the cave glow. And before it, a creature giving his back to Angel. He continued forward without thinking. The melody was beautiful, and though he didn't understand it, he was drawn to it.

Hector continues for a while with his song, until he actually realised that someone or something is watching him, and slowly turns around, meeting his eyes with the figure of a male human in front of him
The male Octomer stares at him with deep eyes, deep and enchanting yet at the same ominous, ready to move to attack or hide if he mades a wrong move for sure, he's not scared of humans, and he can easily bring one down in no time. Hector shows his shark teeth as he growls in the distance.

As soon as the creature stopped singing, Angel's mind woke up from his blissful cloud.
"What...?" he shocked his head, still confused, "Where am I?"
Angel looked around, the waters shone with beautiful colors and the sound inside the cave echoed everywhere. His own voice echoed in the tunnels he had just walked through, but he had no recollection of how he ended up here. Before him was a dark purple creature, staring at him. Angel heard growls coming from that beast, and saw sharp, shiny teeth in its mouth. He waves his bare hands in front of him, staying still and not moving any other muscles.
"Hey there, buddy, what's up?" he said in a very scared tone, "I think I'm in the wrong cave, so I think I'm going to leave, don't worry"
As he talk, he tried to move his right foot backward, while he kept the stare on the creature. Then came the left foot, which tripped on some rock on the ground, knocking him down.

The human was scared, Hector could tell from his voice ton, but he couldn't really understand what he was telling him, especially because in all of his years of life he never actually talked with any of the human languages, they are so much complicated, so he just knows some basics.
He continues to growl at him until the male human actually falls down as he was trying to het away, make Hector stop as he decides that maybe he can have this human to stay for a while, he doesn't look scary at all, on the contrary he was the one scared to death.
The Octomer goes into the water again and swims towards the river of the pool, trying to get closer as possible to the boy as he gets out of the water and by being so big and tall, he's hand is as big as Àngel hand, as he simply searchers for injuries, ready though to protect himself if needed «You hit floor, eath Triton, head hurt?» he asks with a very basic English, looking at Àngel with is eyes, as some of his tentacles wonder around them «Sorry, I do not want to scare you» he explains as he still gently touches the boy's head in search of anything hurt

When Angel hit the floor, he closed the eyes, driven by a reflex action. And so, in the blink of an eye, the creature was... standing? in front of him, with a dark purple hand caressing his head. The surprise doesn't end there, as the creature began to talk!
"Yo-You talk?!" he yelled hysterically, trying to crawl back. But the beast's firm, yet gentle, grip on his head kept him from moving.
Angel tried to push the creature away from him, pushing with his left hand on the creature's chest. It didn't move an inch. Instead, his left arm were began to be enveloped by one of the creature's tentacules.
"W-What are you?!" he yelled again. The echo of his voice in the cave sounded terrified, and he really was.

Hector literally doesn't inch in any way as the male under him hits, he had been hurt in worst ways and sime kicks from such a small thing as this human is nothing for the bigger Octomer.
He shakes his head and sighs in inpatients as this guy was just freaking out and not responding to his question, okay he totally didn't make a good impression with the growling, but it was his fault for coming behind his back without making any sound at all.
«Stop move and hit me.» he tries to say as calm and gentle as possible but he was seriously running out of patience that he was ready to block him with his tentacles and calming him by himself with his hypnosis, geez this his the first human in ages that is just terrified of him and not hunting him and it's impossible to calm him down.
He stops his legs to kick his chest with his tentacles as his other hand that wasn't on Àngel's head takes his arms and pins them above his head... And yes this may look strange, but he doesn't have (still) this kind of intentios... He's just trying to stop and calm this terrified human.

With both hands pinned over his head, he could only struggle, but then the creatre's deep voice echoed through the cave, freezing Angel instanlly. While Angel was trying to get some air, the creature examined him for any injuries. The creature ran his fingers through the man-cub's brown hair, and a small gasp escaped from Angel's mouth. He wasn't hurt, he was simply surprised by the soft touch of the creature, which continued to caress his neck.
"Hey!" he protested "That tickles!"
And between laughs, Angel's eyes connected with the creature's. All sound in the cave died away. Angel, after losing himself in the creature's black eyes, realizes the situation, blushing and looking away.

Well, at least he stopped screaming and kicking like a baby, that's something, but now he's red one of those things humans eat, what was that... A tomato! Right. But why? Was it because of the fall he had? Was like his blood making his head red and ready to explode? He's confused, and his face can totally tell it.
«Why you red now? Your head hurt?» he asks as his tentacles still wonder around his body in search of any injury on the male human, his eyes still on Àngel's ones, even though they actually wonder on the male, to study him sort of like «Sorry, i do not mean to scare you... It is... I do not see humans many times» he explains as he lets go of his hands now that he finally stopped, but he still is very close to the human male and he doesn't look like he's taking of soon

"I-I'm ok" Angel said, avoiding the stare of the creature. "No, I'm not hurt"
The tentacles of the beast were all over his body, keeping him lay on the ground. They were very soft and cold. Angel took a moment to think straight. He was lying on the ground, with a giant purple creature with tentacles on top of him that cared about him. Did he really not hit his head? Again, he made eye contact with the creature, who looked at him in confusion. He could have sworn he saw the creature's sparkling pupil, shining silver.
"You don't see humans many... times?" he repeated, "Wha-What are you?" There was a mixture of curiosity and fear in his tone.

... Did this human not hit his head to hard? Hector never meet someone like this one, and he's talking so much and making too many questions for him for his tastes. He sighs calming himself «I'm Hector» he simply reply to Àngel, thinking he can easily arrive to the type of creature he is, he doesn't think it's so hard
He lets go of the male human, sitting down beside him, to see if he runs away or if he stays with him a little longer, not that he can get out easily anyway, but that's another problem «Humans come in my home to hunt me. I defend myself. But they come back. You do not look like hunter.» he says still staring at him, as some of his tentacles simply wonder for curiosity, being very gentle and careful with the human
«But you also do not look like humans of island... Where do you come from?» he also asks looking at him with now some curiousity in his eyes, but always very calm and serious, he doesn't look like someone who shows his emotions easily

Angel incorporated himself, sitting in front of Hector, while playing with his tentacles. The feeling of that playful caress made Angel smile sheepishly.
"I'm Angel" he said, "Nice to meet you"
The fear and insecurity disappeared, somehow Hector didn't seem like a threat. It was the first time Angel had encountered such a creature. He obviously wasn't a human, or at least, not a full one. Hector's upper body remains human-like (with a very strange skin tone), but his other half... was 8 squishy, dark purple tentacles.
"No, I'm not from this island" he explained, "I woke up on the beach 3 weeks ago, with no memories of how I end up here"
But a question appeared in the man's mind, how did he end up deep in the cave? He only remembers reaching the entrance, and then waking up here. He looked around, trying to secure a way out from there.
