Haruhi's POV, OOC-ness Haruhi X?? VOTE 4 PAIRING Haruhi's parents are BOTH deceased here.

I sighed softy Why do tour guides drone on and on about boring stuff that has nothing to do with what they learn? I glanced around. I was listening to the tour guide talk about how scientists were close to a break through involving the machine that would change humans into mermaids or men.

Humans have been destroying Earth for a long time now. A few years ago, something happened that shook the foundation of our beliefs. The water levels rose drastically, meaning the entire human race moved to the higher altitudes. Or…those that survived the flood did. However, thanks to the higher water levels…something we had long viewed as a myth rose from the depths of the sea.

Merfolk…the people of the water.

We got along well enough to coexist…however…the water levels are continuing to rise slowly. This resulted in scientists going to work and building machines that were specifically for messing with human genes so that we could be transformed into merfolk. They haven't been successful yet, but this medical ward had the machine that was closest to a breakthrough.

I blinked as I heard the tour guide speak. "…and this, ladies and gentlemen, is our pride and joy."

I turned to see a strange machine that I couldn't even begin to describe. However, one particular part caught my attention. "What's that part for?" I asked pointing. I got a little to close and yelped I cut my finger, Got a little too close. Ow…this hurts a lot.

"Oh dear…did that break skin?" the guide asked, sounding very, very worried.

Much to worried for my tastes… "…Yes." I answered cautiously around the finger I had placed in my mouth. ( anything underlined is the computer)

Suddenly a computerized voice called "Haruhi Fujioka. Chance of compatibility…100%. Reaction will initiate in five minutes."

My eyes widened and I froze, along with every other being in the room. Then suddenly everyone burst into motion at once.

Security rushed inside, pushing everyone other then me and the scientists who had tried to stop me from getting anywhere near the machine out. Said scientists rushed towards me, all yelling different things.

"Get her to the sedation tank! Move it!"

"Get ready! We need to be ready for anything!"

"4 minutes 04 seconds"

I, apparently, wasn't moving quick enough because one of the security guards who had stayed with us slung me over his shoulder whispering "Sorry Miss Fujioka."

I just gasped, not saying anything else as a slight burning sensation began to spread through my body. "It burns." I whispered as the sensation got worse, then louder. "IT BURNS!!"

I knew scientists were screaming things, and I knew the security guard had broke into a full out run. However, I couldn't decipher what was being said except for a few words, all from the same voice.

"Parents…dead…no one….stay….lake…done…We…begin….sedate."

Then the world was black.

(Should I continue? VOTE FOR HARUHI'S PAIRING! (Kyouya? Tamaki? Twins-they will share her-. Honey? Mori?) I can't bring myself to separate the twins so they will both share Haruhi if they win the vote…um….TELL ME WHAT YOU ALL THINK! Please? Sorry bout shortness. This is sorta a test run. I NEED FAN ART OF THE HOSTS AS MERMEN! PM me if you're interested 4 tail colors etcetera. THANK YOU
