Somebody captured Copper Top and imprisoned her. They found it most interesting to have a "real" mermaid for once. They started to experiment on her. The magic of Equestria being drained from her. Her body reacted, changed, adapted. Her human self almost restored. But suddenly, the magic, just like a compressed coil, rebounded and made Copper Top completely dependent on water to breathe. Left alone in a cell, waiting for rescue or sweet release. Suddenly, the unthinkable happens and her home, her fish tank, fails and the water leaks, leaving her to drown in the air. She desperately cups as much water as she can, but it is more difficult each time. Copper Top feels how the air hurts her, dries her gills and surely but slowly, she starts drowning in the air that she used to breathe just some days ago. She screams for help and before falling unconscious, she hears footsteps, running in the hallways leading to her cell.
Can somebody save her?
