Koun Hizuri was dying.
He was bleeding enough blood to be fatal.
Even if he did manage to get to the hospital, it would be too late.
In his last moments of life, he felt sad that he won't get to see his own daughter grow up.
He couldn't help but look back at how normal his day had begun.
Koun Hizuri had just turn 28, he was married to the woman of his dreams and together they had produced a two-year adorable daughter, which they named Julie after his mother who squealed when she heard her granddaughter was named after her.
It had been 6 years since he came out about his true identity to the world, 4 years since he began his happy married life with his Wife, Kyoko Mogami now Kyoko Hizuri and 5 years since Sho Fuwa had admitted defeat and had given up on Kyoko all together.
Koun went to work like every other day.
He got up, said hello to his beautiful stunning wife and daughter, did his morning routine before saying goodbye to his family.
He arrived at his work place knowing he would see Kyoko and his daughter later on the same day and went from job to job, like normal, finishing like always late at night.
When night struck, he drove his manager home but the problem was getting back home.
He had no idea that he would never see his family ever again.
Well not in this body as Koun Hizuri anyway.
It was almost midnight and he was thinking about buying his daughter something, like another huge stuffed bear to add to her collection, Koun found it shocking about how much his over the top father had rubbed off on him.
As he mused at what he was going to get his daughter.
A red car came speeding from behind him, swerving on and off the road.
He saw the car too late and before he had time to react, the car smashed right in his.
The sight wasn't pretty; the red car literal tore its way to the front of his car.
You would think that the impact itself would have killed him, no survived that. What killed him was one of the wind shield wipers from the red car coming undone and going through his seat, straight through his chest.
As he looked down shock, he quickly went to check if someone was around to help him.
The street was abandoned and he cursed.
He know, that he would be found in a couple of hours but he didn't think he could hang onto life that long.
He tried to move but immediately regretted it because when more blood started spilling out along with unbearable pain.
No doubt the red car driver was dead behind the wheel, mostly likely someone who fall asleep behind the wheel or was driving when they were drunk.
In his last moments of life, he couldn't help but pray for the people he would be leaving behind and who would no doubt grieve for his death.
How was Kyoko going to explain to their daughter that he wouldn't be coming home, anymore?
In his mind, he could see his parents crying over his dead body, Lory would no doubt blame himself, Yashiro would go into depression knowing he was the last to see him alive, Maria would do the one thing she hadn't done since she was 9.
Cry.
Kyoko would try to look okay but she on inside she would be hurting the most, Julie would be too young to understanding what had happened to him.
And his fans.
His fans were the kind who would slightly mourn his death and post tributes on the Internet.
But the world won't stop.
Sooner or later they would all move on without him.
He took his last breath and closed his eyes, he felt detached from his body as his spirit left it.
#Scene change#
He suddenly felt very cramped as if trapped.
He could feel and the walls trapping him began to give way as he put all his strength into it.
He was met with a rush of cold water and he couldn't help but shiver as his eyes adjusted to where he was.
He was under water.
He panicked trying to use his legs to get to the surface.
His legs weren't working and when he looked down, expecting to see tall adult sized legs but instead he saw, one big fish tail, it was multi coloured, with its colours most consisted of different shades of red and green, it shone in the sea light.
What the?
He couldn't believe what he was seeing.
He heard the sound of cracking all around him and he turned around to see thousands of huge eggs surrounding him.
Like an unspoken signal, every egg was destroyed and out came hybrids of human and fish, Koun could only gap as they all looked around very curious over the new strange world they were born into.
Suddenly a huge dark shadow casted over all of them and before anyone know what was happening.
Two sets of razor sharp teeth lunged at the large group and took a big chunk of them with it, blood was everywhere.
It was at this point every sense in Koun body was screaming at him to run or swim away because if he stayed even as a fully grown man.
He would die.
He ran as fast as his tail could carry him, others tried to follow his lead.
More sharks made themselves known.
He could feel the fear and bloodlust in the water.
He managed to just dodge a shark that was fattest of the group, therefore the slowest.
Unfortunately, the others weren't so lucky.
Only him and a couple of others managed to escape. When he was a good distance away, he hid in a tiny shell waiting for the monsters to pass.
Once they had gone passed, his heart beat began to slow down and with no danger present he could think rationally.
He realised the time he had spent in the water, would have killed even free swimmers.
Could he have become one of those fish hybrids?
Wait their appearance looked familiar.
Their appearance reminded him of those mermaids that he would always read to his daughter when she went to bed.
Was he a merman?
Either way if he was going to survive he would have to eat.
But what do merman eat?
He peeked out of the shell to make sure the coast was clear before swimming out.
Maybe Mermen ate seaweed?
He went to find seaweed laying on the rocks and remembered how good Fried Seaweed tasted and the benefits.
How much more raw seaweed?
He took a piece and shoved into his mouth and gaged instantly at the sour taste, surprisingly he didn't feel like his stomach was going through torture like he usually did, maybe it was the new body that had yet to taste Juliena cooking along with huge quantities of food shoved down his throat.
So seaweed was out.
He wondered maybe crabs?
But first he had to hunt and find a crab.
He kept to the rocks as he moved about, hiding out of sight, at the sight a fish that was bigger than he was.
Before spotted a crab walking lazily along a rock, he grabbed a smaller rock and before the crab know what was happening, he struck.
He kept on sticking it with all his might until he had the sound of the shell breaking to reveal the soft meat underneath.
Once he made sure the crab was dead, he poked it with a stick wondering if he would get poisoned if he ate the crab raw.
He cut a small piece out of the tender meat before shrugging and putting it into his mouth.
The taste was so good!
He took a moment to savour the flavour before swallowing it.
At last he know that eating crabs were safe to eat.
His tiny body only needed to eat a small portion of the crab before his stomach became full.
Being so small meant that find shelter was really easy and he made himself a little home for himself before shifting into sleep.
Maybe this life wasn't so bad.
The following days after that was spent running, hiding, killing and exploring with no purpose what's so ever.
Until he had reach a certain size and he made a huge discovery.
He could now understand fish!
It was weird hearing previously non talking crabs start screaming for help or curse him, but he did get some very interesting information.
Merpeople weren't extinct as he originally thought and actually had a civilization.
The centre of it all was Antophia, where the Nobles and Royals lived.
One crab called him a royal but he was confused, why was he called a royal when to his knowledge he had been born on a random rock not some fancy palace so he asked questions to his next meal.
He was very informative.
Koun had apparently been born with white hair that only the nobles are born with and his looks weren't average even amongst the Merpeople a species famous for their good looks.
Either way, his curiosity got the better of him and forced the crab to carve a map for him to show him the way.
He no longer needed to use a rock to hunt, his teeth were now strong enough to break the crab hard shell and get directly to the soft meat.
His journey had taken him countless days and nights to reach the capital.
He stopped in front of a glowing dome that shone with rainbow colour and he couldn't help but be in awe.
He could image how Kyoko would look if she saw the mermaid capital with mermaids just passing through.
This was practically his wife dream come true.
He braced himself before he swam at full speed towards the dome, he couldn't help but think he would smack into it instead of passing through.
He closed his eyes before he made contact.
He felt like reality rippled around him and when he opened his eyes, he saw the most amazing city.
From top to bottom everything was made out of crystals.
The Merpeople where everywhere.
The women wore shells or even seaweed made shirts to hid their top half.
The man didn't even bother and went topless however some of them did wear a bit jewellery.
It was like a mountain, at the very bottom was the market place and the slums.
The section higher was middle class than above that was the nobles.
At the very top was the palace itself looking grand.
As he wondered around, he noticed that some people had begun staring at him.
Koun had never even seen his own reflection so he didn't know how white his hair really was or his eyes and how he was the size of a human toddler.
Suddenly two merman came swimming up to him, they were wearing battle helmets and were carrying self-made Spears.
"Prince, please let us escort you to your family" the merman on the right said.
Prince!? Koun thought, was he really royalty!?
How can they tell by the colour of their hair when he could see lots of Merpeople sporting very strange colours!
"Thank you" He said, wondering if the palace held anything that can tell him about his situation.
He followed them to the palace at the very top of the magnificent structure.
The palace was even more stunning up close when he swam up to the golden gates.
The guards guarding the gates took one look at him before letting him through.
He swam to the front door and they open automatically in front of him.
He felt something wash over him and the next thing he knew, a giant mermaid that was the size of two building flung her arms around him.
She was so pretty that he couldn't believe that such a being existed, she was rocking the white hair and there was only a piece of cloth separating him from her giant watermelons.
He found it very hard to breath.
"At last, one of my babies has come back" she said, with tears in her eyes.
Koun was about to tell her that she had the wrong person but when he took a whiff of her scent, all thought of that disappeared from his mind.
It's a known fact that fish use pheromones to communicate with each other.
Koun felt himself relaxing as the feeling of warmth and protection washed over him from breathing in her motherly scent.
No matter how he tried to fight it, his body recognised her as his mother and Koun couldn't help but hug back.
"Kaa-san"
"Welcome home. My son"
And scene!
Just another Idea I had. Please review!
