Under the Sea
I looked up at the sky. A light blue endless sky.
I held my face up to the sunny sky with a content smile.
We were staying on a small island on the Mediterranean sea. Lissa had had enough of the court and frankly I had too. She had picked this small island, it was far enough away from any major cities that their were no strigoi, moroi or dhampirs. Just a bunch of humans. I had refused to let her go onn her own with only Christian for prtection so I was here as a guest for her very much needed getaway.
We stayed in a couple cabins. I stayed in one with Dimitri and Lissa stayed in the other with Christian. Lissa had barely escaped bringing any other guardians but she had gotten away with only the two of us since there was a small-flourishing even-fishing town but that was it. No moroi and no strigoi meant no danger. humans couldnt jurt us but I came along anyway, though now I was considering diving in the water and swimming back to civlisation. Lissa had been telling us the hole boat ride here about the history of the island. The only thing I picked up out the whole spiel was, sirens, fairy tail and royalty.
I had almost rolled my eyes but managed to hold it back replacing it with a small smile.
Dimitri had driven the boat when I'd asked how he knew how to drive such a big boat he'd had a small smile as he said 'it's a guardians secret.' I then said something that sounded like 'I am a ducking guardian you should ducking tell me how you learn this wrap!'. He then smiled and turned back to driving.
When we arrived at the dock that was pepered with other boats I suspected were for tranporting goods to the mainland the locals had gathered to welcome us. They were kind and inviting, they tolled us of their families and history as well. A small group of people had helped us bring our things to our cabins a little ways off to the othe side of the island. We'd thsnked them and they'd invited us to events they'd be having during the next couple weeks. Lissa had quickly accepted. I sat there tired and wondering when they'd leave so I could enjoy a nice cat nap.
I smiled thinking of the locals-and my short but very much apreaciated cat nap-as me and Lissa sat under a palm tree on the beach. She wore tons of sunscreen saying when I asked why she didn't wait till later to come out to the beach she said didn't want to keep me trapped inside with her until sun down. I smiled at her then said I'd go for a walk on the beach. She smiled and I left the shade of the tree.
I walked watching the blue waters with a smile. They were so calm and peaceful.
A flash of brown hair caught my attention. I stopped startled.
The locals were all on the other side of the island why would they swim over here? The waters no different no seaweed or anything on either side of the island.
The flash of brown hair flashed again and I watched as it rose from the water the hair turned into a face.
A beautiful face.
A young woman was in the water she had long brown hair that fell onto her chest there was an odd silk like fabric that clung to her almost like a shirt yet it wasn't. The fabric was odd but her eyes held my attention. She was staring straight into my eyes.
''Hey are you alright!'' I called. She jerked back staring at me wide eyed and a man rose behind her. He was handsome and captivating like the woman as well, he wore no shirt and he spoke quietly to her before quickly diving underwater. A green flash caught my eye. I brought my eyes back up to the woman. She stared me in the eye before diving in the water.
I gasped at what I saw.
She didn't have legs...
She had a scarlet tail that started at her hips. And that beautiful captivating face.
I froze.
What the hell?
I stared at the spot it was obviously a fictive image of my imagination.
An ld gnarled hand on my shoulder brought me out of my thoughts. I spun around with my fists raised. I lowered them when I saw a short, brown haired, green eyed, old man. His shoulder rolled in and he used a walking stick with designs of waves and sea creatures and-obviously made up-mermaids etched into it. He watched the water for a moment before saying.
''You saw them didn't you?'' I watched his face before saying,
''Saw what?'' He smiled showing pearly white teeth.
''Don't pretend with me child you saw them. The merfolk.'' I shook my head stubbornly.
''I saw nothing.'' He smiled and said
''Come here tonight with your friend, Vasilissa was it? I'll tell you two a story.'' I stared at him for a moment not sure what to say. He grinned and said
''You wouldn't be afraid of a frail old man like me would you?'' I narrowed my eyes before saying,
''I'm afraid of no one.'' I turned on my heels and I swear I heard him say
''Of course not Rose you silly dhampir.''
I hope you enjoyed it! Review and tell me what you thought!
