Ahastar has been stranded on a tiny, remote tropical island for days on end, with nothing but hope of rescue to keep him going. As he nears starvation and insanity, a tall, athletic-looking anthro shark rises out of the water and spies the raptor lying parched on the beach. It's pretty surprising for both parties but before Ahastar can summon the strength to call for help, the sleek creature slips back into the ocean and vanishes from sight. Ten minutes later the water's surface breaks again and seven of the big aquatic predators come strolling up onto the beach, communicating jovially in their own harsh, rasping language. They surround Ahastar, looming over his helpless form and clearly delighted with their lucky find. One by one, they climb on top of him and begin to trample... cool, smooth shark soles bruising his parched flesh and pressing him down firmly into the hot sand.

For the next few hours, Ahastar's existence consists of nothing but pressure, pain and humiliation. Outsized, outnumbered and outmuscled, the raptor is forced to lick and worship the feet of the cruel young sharks while they mercilessly toy with him. Each gruelling worship session ends with Ahastar's face buried under two freshly-licked shark feet while the contented beast sits back upon his exhausted body and holds him there, cruel and victorious.

 ahastar won't get the rescue he wants, but at least he'll be kept alive...
