Story
Fin's POV
I can't believe it. I gave up everything for her. The pod, my friends and family, and the sea. And she did that to me. She cheated on me twice, and just dump me like that. I was at the Ocean Café right after my breakup. I ordered a drink.
"What can I get you?" The blonde waitress said
"Just some soda with a glass" I answered
"On the way"
I'm a merman who had been outcasted by my pod. Why? For falling in love with a land dweller. How it happened? I was just scoping the reef out in the middle of the day, then I run into a jetty. Then I saw this beautiful land girl who is just walking by. That's when I can feel what love is like. One night during a full moon, I dragged myself up to the shore, and used my powers to get legs from the full moonlight. It was very hard when I first walked, but I got used to it. I grabbed some torn jeans and a gray t-shirt from the beach just to cover me up. I ran into the girl at a café
~flashback~
"Hi" the girl said. "Hi"
"Sorry I bumped to you, my name's Erica, are you new in this town?" She said
"Yes. I'm Fin" I answered nervously
"I had to catch up for school, see ya around!" The girl said
~end of flashback~
Everyone looked at me, some laughed at me, because I wore torn jeans and a dirty gray t-shirt. I even hear background people talking like "He's weird" and "Eww what he's been up too" or something like that. Of course I was embarrassed and I ran out to the beach. I met the girl again later. We just sat and talk. I think she had somehow shown interest in me too. Over the weeks our relationship had grown, and when finally she asked if I wanted to be her boyfriend. Of course I said yes, it's what I've been waiting for.
But over the year, she was all just seem like I was just some cat walking hadn't been very attentive to me. She was acting like we were not serious. She had been cheating on me and pushes me away. She cheated once when I found out, at first I understand that, and I forgive her. But then she started cheating on me again and again and finally when she dumped me and started torturing me emotionally by calling me names. I ran out and looked at the sea. I know that this day is when my life ended. I don't know what to do again, until…
Nixie's POV
It was two weeks since I've been betrayed by that jerk Cam. I went towards the Ocean Café after having classes with Rita. I was just alone. I ordered a bottle of water with straw. Then I was walking towards the exit while drinking the water, then this tall blonde guy just ran into me and accidentally splashed me. I ran into the cool room.
"Wait!" He said.
Of course I didn't hesitate it and ran towards the cool room when I transformed. But this guy, he followed me. Of course I turned invisible when he went in. He scoped the room and just walked out, like he thinks I just disappeared. I heat-dried myself up and walked out. Then I decided to go for a swim.
Fin's POV
I didn't mean to make the girl splashed. What I was curious about is why did she had to run away instead of getting angry? Thoughts have filled my head. Then I decided to go to the reef to fresh up my mind. I jumped in from the jetty and swam towards the reef. I swam around and when something shocked me. I ran into THE GIRL that I splashed ON THE REEF. She was in fact A MERMAID!
That made sense why she ran when I splashed her, yet I've never seen a mermaid for ages. And I never though mermaids were that beautiful and attractive. Of course she ran away the second time from me, seeing that the fact that mermaids fear mermen more than any other creatures in the sea, for what we have done to them eons ago. I was never really interested in gaining power or devouring mermaids, or oppose to them. That's why I never really liked being in my pod. I'm glad that I was casted out.
Nixie's POV
I was just shocked today on the reef. He was the guy that splashed me when he accidentally ran into me. Was it an accident? Or is he trying to expose me? I don't know. He didn't really attack me when I come face to face with him on the reef. Nor he doesn't show any behavior of a typical merman. And mermen DON'T just come to land for no reason, nor they are interested in the human world. Or is he a turned land-boy? But I, Sirena, and Lyla all come to the moon pool every night to rest, and we didn't see any land dweller fall into the moon pool after Zac did. I went to Rita's to discuss this with the others. I swam towards Rita's grotto through her pool, and I went to her treasure room where Lyla, Sirena, Zac, and Rita had been waiting.
"Where have you been?" Sirena asked
"I was just swimming in the reef and I found something" I replied
"Like what?" Lyla asked
I answered with a sigh "A merman"
"What? Did he attack you?" Rita asked
"Not really, he was just as confused when he saw me" I answered
"Well just in case he threatens us, we need to talk to him" Rita added again. "Zac, why don't you go find this merman in the reef, and try talking to him, he might trust you more than any of us" Rita ordered
"Okay, but what is this merman like?" Zac asked
"Well he's the only one in the reef other than you, he has short blonde hair and is well built" Nixie replied
"Okay, I'll check up the reef and see what I can find out of him" Zac assured as he dive into the pool at Rita's
Zac's POV
I swam from Rita's grotto to the reef. I searched the whole reef around until I was exhausted. Yet Rita had to put me into this crazy and exhausting mission. Nevertheless, I had to find him to ensure safety for my pod. Then I found this blue fin swimming behind a coral rock. I followed it, and I saw the merman. He was blonde haired. I didn't see his face at first, until when he turned around to me. I resurfaced with him.
"Who are you?" I asked
"I'm Fin. It's good to see a fellow merman around here. I thought I was the only one in this reef when I got here" He answered
" 'got here'? As in, you're not from here?" I asked
"Well I'm from the North Pacific, I was born on the reef there"
"Wait so you're born a merman?"
"Well of course yes, are you? Turned?" He replied
"I was turned on Mako in the moon pool during a full moon"
"There's a moon pool here? Where?
"Yes, but I can't tell you where, I was sworn to secrecy by the mermaids that if a merman asked where the location of the moon pool is" I replied
"So you've made alliance with mermaids?" He shockingly asked
"Why yes, is there a problem?"
"No, it's just that, I wish I could do that. The minute a mermaid come face to face with me she just ran away in fear" He sadly answered
"Ow, so you aren't really against mermaids as much as the others do?"
"No. I was casted out by my pod" He again sadly replied
"Why?" I asked. "For falling in love with a land dweller" He said
I was shocked. "So you've been to land?" "Yes, but it doesn't matter anymore" he answered. I didn't understand the part 'it doesn't matter' but I have to tell the rest of the pod. "I gotta go, see ya around!" "Okay" he replied.
I swam to Rita's grotto. Then I informed the others.
"He was an outcast from his pod, just like the three of you"
"You mean he is alone right now?" Lyla asked
"Well he isn't born here. He was from the waters of North Pacific, and his name was Fin"
"So he is born a merman?" Sirena asked
"Yup, and apparently he got legs and went to land" "Well we should be very careful of him when we run into him on the reef" Rita suggested
"He isn't exactly dangerous. He didn't intend to threaten mermaids or be against them either. He was just sad and alone" I added.
"So we have to play nice on him? He might be covering up and a spy to his pod" Lyla warned
"No of course not. I know when people are lying, He didn't. He was really sad" I assured Lyla and the others. "Well I'll prove it to you. Tommorow, four of us, on the reef?" I reassured them again
Fin's POV
I don't know the point on going back to land anymore. I feel like I'm going to turn into sea foam. Yes. I was always told by the older mermen on the pod of stories like when a merman falls in love with a land dweller, she will leave him for another man and broke his heart and he will turn into sea foam. I used to not believe in that stories, but now I feel like I'm going to turn into foam.
I was suspended in the sea, looking up to the sun while underwater, feeling hopeless. That was, until a hand touched my shoulder. I looked around. It was that brown haired merman I met yesterday. This time, he brought three mermaids, one of them was the one I bumped into the café and on the reef. We resurfaced.
"What are you doing here? This place isn't for you, you should be going" The tall, honey blonde mermaid said.
"I was just going to"
"Lyla!, what are you doing? I already said he's harmless and isn't against all of you" The merman said to her. So her name is Lyla
"Zac's right Lyla, we should give him a try" The other blonde mermaid said.
"Hey I'm Zac by the way, I haven't told you yesterday" The merman introducing himself
We all went to the Ocean Café after we dried ourselves near the beach.
All 5 of us sit on a table. The mermaids introduced themselves
"I'm Sirena, this is Nixie and that is Lyla" The lighter blonde mermaid said
"So… What brings you to land?" The brunette, I mean Nixie asked.
"I fell in love with a land girl, then I was casted out from my pod for it. I went out with her for some time, But she cheated on me twice, then she just leave me for another guy and dumped me"
"Aww you poor thing" Sirena commented
"It's okay.. I moved on already" I assured. But deep down, I'm still heartbroken and haven't moved on.
"Don't worry, there's a lot of fish to catch there, mate. Besides, land girls are sometimes like that" Zac assured me. Zac must've dated a land girl so far, since he used to be a land boy too. Then a girl walked towards us. She works here.
"Hi Zac!" the brunette girl walked towards him then kisses him. Lyla seemed a bit jealous over that, but, that's none of my business anyways.
"Who's this?" The girl asked. "This is Fin, Fin, this is Evie" Zac introduced us. "Nice to meet you" She said as we shook hands. Evie suspected something about me.
"Is he one too?" Evie asked. "What do you mean?" I turned to Zac and give a face expression.
"Yeah, he is" Zac answered her. "So she's on the secret too?" I asked. Zack nodded. "Yes, I am, in fact, I just found out my boyfriend is a fish two weeks ago" Evie jokingly replied. Zac gave an annoying face on her while she laughed.
"I gotta catch up with David. I had a rehearsal with him" Sirena informed. "Who's David?" "He's my boyfriend and he owns this Café too, but you have to keep quiet around him since he doesn't…" Sirena was stopped by me "Oh okay, I get it, I'll be quiet around him".
Nixie's POV
Sirena went to David, Lyla went out swimming, and Evie and Zac went out for a movie. It was all left with me and Fin.
"So, what brings all three of you to land?" Fin asked.
"We had to take Zac's power's away so the pod could come back. Yes, we were casted out just like you. But knowing Zac isn't a threat to us anymore, we gave up and made a pod with him and Rita, another mermaid who is a school principal to Zac's school and teaches us mermaid school"
"Oh, I see" Fin reacted.
