Prologue

Who would've thought such a good day would end so terribly? I couldn't even think of it.

My mother had come home from the hospital with my baby sister, she was so adorable! Her name was Julia Rosalyn Summer. My whole family adored her, I was no exception. The only thing I had against her is what I have against everyone else: she's not a mermaid.

I wasn't born a mermaid. I didn't even want to be one. It happened two years ago when I was four. On a cruise I fell overboard, but a merman saved me before anyone noticed, my payment was to be a mermaid; I was able to live on land, though. I didn't tell my parents for two reasons: one, they wouldn't believe me, two, if they did, they would most likely disown me.

The good day with a bad ending happened quickly, but painfully. I was heartbroken at being torn from my family, I was able to pack for one minute, and then I had to leave. These people found out I was a mermaid and are going to force me to go to a school that had other people like me. I was still sad, but I hope I can see my family again.

It will get much better in later chapters, please review!
